After signing a shoe deal with Chinese company Li-Ning last offseason, Dwyane Wade is primed for a year in the CBA; locals celebrate Women’s Day with reminisces of their favorite female athletes; a Prodigal “Sun” reunites with his longtime coach; and David Beckham is anointed the new face of Chinese soccer.
One item that Californian's can look forward to is the opening of two of the famous Meizhou Dongpo restaurants from China. Every year, they add new menu items that celebrate Chinese cooking with the fresh items of the season.
In the annals of Chinese mythology, a few figures stand out. The ruler of Hell, the man who killed the suns, and the first being who created the Earth.
And then there's this man.
Here in arid Gansu province, at a temple named in his honor, a crowd of people have gathered to celebrate Fu Xi, the man who crafted the beginnings of Chinese civilization.
According to mythology, Fu Xi and his wife Nv Wa are the progenitors of humanity. Between the two of them, they are responsible for creating people, writing, fishing, trapping, and even the wall between heaven and Earth.
