  On Nami’s thirtieth birthday, she’s reminded at every turn that her life isn’t what she’d planned. She’s always excelled at everything—until now. Her fiancé blew up their engagement. Her pride and joy, the tech company she helped to found, is about to lose funding. And her sister, Sora, is getting married to the man of her dreams, Jack—and instead of being happy for her, as Nami knows she ought to be, she’s fighting off jealousy. 
   
  Frustrated with her life, she makes a wish on a birthday candle to find her soulmate. Instead the universe delivers her hate mate, Nami’s old nemesis, Jae Lee, the most popular kid from her high school, who also narrowly beat her out for valedictorian. More than a decade later, Jae is still as effortlessly cool, charming, and stylish as ever, and, to make matters worse, he’s planning a hostile takeover of her start-up. Cue sharp elbows and even sharper banter as the two go head-to-head to see who’ll win this time. But when their rivalry ignites a different kind of passion, Nami starts to realize it’s not just her company that’s in danger of being taken over, but her heart as well.

  Flourishing Chinese Empires -...

  After centuries of division, China experienced an extraordinary renaissance through three dynasties that elevated the empire to unprecedented heights of cultural brilliance and global influence. "Flourishing Chinese Empires: Art, Trade, and Power" examines the Sui, Tang, and Song dynasties—a golden age when China stood as the world's most advanced civilization. 
  The short-lived Sui Dynasty (581-618 CE) accomplished the crucial task of reunification through ambitious projects including the Grand Canal, standardized administration, and reformed examination system. Though bankrupted by these massive undertakings and unsuccessful military campaigns, the Sui created the essential foundation for the glory that followed. 
  The Tang Dynasty (618-907 CE) transformed this unified state into a cosmopolitan empire of unrivaled splendor. China's borders expanded dramatically while its capital at Chang'an became the world's largest and most sophisticated city—a multicultural metropolis where Persian merchants, Japanese monks, and Korean scholars mingled in bustling markets and elegant gardens. This was the era of China's greatest poets, its artistic zenith in sculpture and painting, and unprecedented openness to foreign influences. 
  The Song Dynasty (960-1279 CE) compensated for military vulnerability with stunning economic and technological advancement. Urbanization accelerated as printing spread literacy, commerce flourished through paper money, maritime trade expanded, and scientific innovation thrived. Though constantly threatened by powerful northern neighbors, the Song fostered a refined cultural environment where landscape painting, philosophical inquiry, and scholarly pursuits reached remarkable sophistication.

  Raised Bed Revolution -...

  In recent years, raised bed gardening has gained immense popularity among gardeners of all experience levels, offering a simple yet effective solution to maximize gardening space. Whether you have a sprawling backyard or a small urban patio, raised beds are an ideal way to grow more in less space. This gardening method takes traditional gardening techniques and amplifies their benefits, creating an accessible and highly productive growing environment. 
  Raised beds are essentially framed plots of soil that are raised above the surrounding ground level. This simple yet innovative design promotes better drainage, reduces soil compaction, and enhances root health, making it an excellent choice for growing a wide range of plants. The elevated nature of the beds allows for easier access, especially for individuals with limited mobility or those who prefer to garden without bending down constantly. Additionally, raised beds warm up faster in the spring and dry out more quickly, extending the growing season and allowing for earlier planting. 
  One of the primary advantages of raised bed gardening is the ability to control the soil quality. Traditional garden beds can be plagued by poor soil conditions, compacted earth, or heavy clay that inhibits root growth. With raised beds, gardeners have the opportunity to create the perfect soil mix, tailored to the needs of the plants they wish to grow. By selecting high-quality soil and incorporating organic amendments such as compost, gardeners can ensure that their crops receive optimal nutrition and thrive throughout the growing season. 
  Moreover, raised beds are a great way to promote efficient water usage. With a well-designed watering system, water can be directed straight to the roots, reducing water waste and keeping plants hydrated without over-saturating the soil.
