aSIA cURRENT eVENTS:
The Fresh protests in China's Kunming Over Chemical Plant Plant article was about how many people joined together in order to shut down a power plant. The reason that they want to shut it down is because the government have stated that the power plant, will produce gasoline and petrochemicals that the local economy will be able to meet their environmental standards. Many of the protestant believe that the power plant will just pollute the air and water. Protestants have gather and created a petiton, they have even asked the United States Government to help and shut down the plant. Their afraid that the plant can lead to affect human health.
The article I read can relate the bubonic plague a topic we talked about on the 15th. It said the it spread throughout China and it lead to many deaths. The reason I related these where because the bubonic plague can be said it was like pollution it can be spread and affect mostly anything in its way. Same thing with the pollution of a power plant it affects anything in its way. The bubonic plague and the power plant both affect the health of anything that lives mainly people and animals which both rely on the Earth in order to get the resources needed.

Fin.K.L was popular during 1998-2002. Little Mix was formed in 2011 in British version of The X Factor. Both groups were slowly put together by their auditions, Little Mix having The X Factor and Fin.K.L joining in by either contests or at random. Each member of both groups had wanted a solo career but in the end formed as one. Both groups have sang songs of either love or following in what you believe in. Although Fin.K.L have now taken their separate ways and perusing their solo careers,Little Mix are barely beginning their journey and hopefully will continue.

This painting was painted by Kun Can a Qing Dynasty painter. It was created in 1664. Kun Can became a Chan Buddhist monk at a young age. He lived in Nanjing and was originally from Hunan. Many of Kun Can's painting were about Misty Mountains.. He was influenced by Wang Meng, a painter who lived in the 1300's under the Yuan Dynasty. He is considered to be one of the Four Monk Masters of the Qing Dynasty. Kun Can is noted for landscape paintings.It is said that Kun Can had one of the characteristics that distinguish a scholar-painter from a painter.
The reason I choose one of Kun Can's painting was because paintings (in my point) are one of the helpful primary sources we have. The reason I say this because when you look at a well done painting they have a special feeling when you see it. The painting allows you to see the change that has occurred in environments You get to see the different perspectives of another persons way of seeing. it also shows that now a days we have cameras allowing you to make "art" painting actually allows you to show an actual picture that shows most of the time exact detail allowing the viewer to get different perspectives.
