Q: "rails generate rspec:install" seems to be failing running: ruby 1.9.3p0 with Rails 3.2.1

I'm very new to rails and ruby so this means almost nothing to me, could anyone explain.
Thanks

A: It looks like your rspec-rails version is 2.0.0.beta...
Try upgrading this to ~> 2.8, or if that's what you have specified on your Gemfile, run bundle exec rails g rspec:install
To update your gem version, your Gemfile you should have the following:
group :test, :development do
  gem "rspec-rails", "~> 2.8"
end

Once you've added that, run bundle update rspec-rails and try installing again and everything should be good as gold!

A The One That Got Away egy dal Katy Perry amerikai énekesnőtől. A számot Perry mellett Dr. Luke és Max Martin szerezte. Utóbbi kettő a szám producere is volt egyben. A szám egy közepes tempójú pop ballada az elveszett szerelemről. A számban utalás hangzik el a Radiohead nevű rockegyüttesre.

A The One That Got Away a kritikusoktól pozitív értékeléseket kapott, néhányan gratuláltak Katy komolyabb tónusának. A dal 2011 októberében jelent meg a Capitol Records gondozásában a Teenage Dream című album hatodik kislemezeként, melyet egy Floria Sigismondi által rendezett videóklip követett, mely novemberben jelent meg.

53 év alatt Perry album a hetedika Hot 100 történetében, melyről legkevesebb hat top 10-es kislemez jelent meg. A dal a hatodik a California Gurls (közreműködik Snoop Dogg), Teenage Dream, Firework, E.T. (közreműködik Kanye West), és Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) után, melyek mind első helyezettek voltak, Egy remixváltozat B.o.B közreműködésével 2011. december 20-án jelent meg. A dal akusztikus változata 2012. január 16-án került kiadásra. A dal az egyetlen a Teenage Dream kislemezei közül, mely nem érte el az első helyet a Billboard Hot 100-on, mindössze harmadik lett. Ennek ellenére a Hot Dance Club Songs, Adult Top 40 , Mainstream Top 40 listákon sikeresen első helyezést ért el.

Háttér
2011. szeptember 13-án a New York-i Irving Plaza-ban a Capitol Records megerősítette, hogy a The One That Got Away lesz a Teenage Dream hatodik kislemeze. Perry így nyilatkozott:
"Nagy öröm számomra, hogy a 'The One That Got Away' lett hatodik kislemeznek kiválasztva, mivel ez a dal egy másik oldalamat mutatja be, melyet eddigi kislemezeim nem. Szerintem mindenki azonosulni tud a számmal. Arról szól, hogy valakinek egy életre szóló ígéretet teszel, de nem tudod betartani. Ez egy keserédes történet. Remélem, hogy a hallgatóim tanulnak belőle, és sosem kell elmondaniuk, hogy megszökött a 'nagy Ő'."

A kiadó hozzátette, nem azért adják ki a számot, hogy egy új 1. helyezett slágert tudhassanak magukénak, hanem azért, mert Katy nagyon szereti a dalt, emellett fülbemászó ritmusa is közrejátszott.
2011 szeptemberében Perry ezt tette közzé Twitter fiókján: "The One That Got Away… ez történik!!!", a kislemez borítójával együtt.

Q: Use hostPort on nginx ingress controller is insecure? I'm using nginx-ingress controller (https://docs.nginx.com/nginx-ingress-controller) and I would like to know if expose ingress using hostPort is insecure. I am currently using nodePort with a balancer layer 3 / 4 on the front.

A: Depends on the application requirements.  For very small, one node clusters, it seems like hostPort is exactly what you want.  ingress-nginx suggests you configure it to use DaemonSet instead of Deployment to make sure "there can be only one" per node.

A: It is not insecure on it's own it's just REALLY not recommended, it all depend on the security of the deployment that is exposed , and the security of your host.
Also , exposing hostPort is not recommended outside of a test stage , because , you can deploy only on pod per host/node (as only one port is available).
If you achieve what you wanted to do using nodeport , stick to it , as it's the best choice if you are using a Loadbalancer in front of your cluster

Priority Mail Cubic is a special version of Priority Mail that's priced based on the outer dimensions of your package instead of the weight, which can save you up to 90% off what it would otherwise cost. Cubic is the cheapest, fastest way to ship small packages that weigh over 1 pound, with delivery in 1-3 days and $100 in insurance included for free.
You can ship packages that are up to half of a cubic foot in volume with this service (which is 12x12x6 inches, or other combinations that make the same volume) and your packages can weigh up to 20 lbs. Note that to qualify for Cubic rates, the maximum size for any dimension is 18".
Depending on the size of your package, there are 5 pricing tiers it will fall into. It's a good idea to plan your packaging to fit within the smallest tier possible for your package's content, because it can drastically lower your costs.
Round down to 12.25" x 9.5" x 3"
Because this package is just over .2 cubic feet, it would be in the 0.3 cubic feet pricing tier.
If it were a slightly smaller box (such as 12x9.5x3) it would be in the 0.2 pricing tier instead and would cost up to 25% less to ship.
Note that you can also use a padded envelope or poly softpack, but it changes the formula used to determine your pricing tier. Learn more about Priority Mail Cubic Softpack here.
Cubic-priced mailpieces may not be rolls or tubes.
Once you know which USPS Cubic pricing tier your package is in, you can use the rate chart below to determine what it will cost to ship your package, or use our USPS rates calculator.
Other shipping software adds up to 38% markup on top of the actual Priority Mail Cubic rates. Pirate Ship is the only shipping software that passes through the deepest discounts available for Priority Mail Cubic for free, with no markup, fees, or minimum volume required.

Keith McKenzie (1924-1996) supported many local causes and was significantly involved with Rotary.
Mayor Roy Stoneham wrote the following tribute for Doctor Peter Lippa's death in the Kawerau Gazette 13 October 1976.
Sir Monita Delamere (1921-1993) contributed extensively to the Kawerau community and is particularly remembered for his work with Rautahi Marae and establishing the town's Credit Union.
Geoff Tombleson was an early resident of Kawerau, making a significant contribution, not just as the town pharmacist, but also to the community.


In 2007 he won the Outstanding Novel submitted award at the Southern California writer's conference. He is a member of the Irish Writing Centre, two "live" writing groups in Dublin and online writing communities in England and the States. His first novel, The Istanbul Puzzle, came out from Harper Collins in January 2012 and 3rd, The Manhattan Puzzle released in the US, 2014.His first novel was shortlisted for Irish crime novel of the year in 2012. He also run a service, BooksGoSocial.com, which promotes other writers. He teaches digital marketing and provides support services in that area as well.
You are the founder of BooksGoSocial.com. Tell us how you have helped a few authors.
BooksGoSocial.com has helped over 3,500 authors to reach readers. Many of our authors are selling lots more books because of this service. We have over 636,493 real Twitter followers who we Tweet to every day about books. These followers know they will get information about books when they follow us. It says so in our profiles.
This doesn't work for every book however. We struggle to find readers for poetry, experimental literary fiction, YA and children's books. But if your book is for adults and in a popular genre we can help you sell it.
You got published by Harper Collins in 20 countries and 11 languages. How much marketing do you need to do for your own books? Or does the publisher takes care of it completely and you just write?
Harper Collins are wonderful. They did a lot for me. They ran competitions, got me interviews on TV and radio and in magazines in 2012-2014, but my editor has gone! And her replacement has gone too! To Amazon! So now I'm on my own and self-publishing the next installment in my mystery series, The Nuremberg Puzzle.
They helped me find those 636,493 readers though and now I can help other writers reach those readers too!
You have been writing a book a year, well nearly! How long does it take for you to write a novel? What's your process?
My current novel took two years to write and edit. I had most of it done in the first six months, but then I paid for two edits and a proofread, which sent me back to the beginning for major re-writes. I believe it's important that we deliver the best possible book we can.
Is Social Media the key to growing your reputation? What if the author does not have this skill?
One of the reasons I started helping other authors was because they didn't have the time to expand their following on Twitter or promote on Facebook. Our service gives authors instant access to a huge following. The fees are low and compared to the time you'd have to invest in building such a following it's really a cost effective way to reach new readers.
What about Networking? We have heard that you found your editor at a networking event, the 9th you had attended in 5 years! What would be your advise to authors who are bad at networking? How can they increase their chances of getting discovered?
Yes, I enjoy networking, especially with writers. It's one of the reasons I founded the Dublin Writers Conference – linked here – in late June every year. It's a small and friendly conference ideal for anyone new to networking with writers.
Sure, you don't have to network, but if you can push yourself the rewards are amazing. We have a Hollywood producer coming this June and lots of great writing teachers with lots of great ideas.
The social aspect of writing is something I enjoy. I don't have friends outside of writing and the pleasure of being with other writers is humbling and inspiring. Try it!
How do you manage the different hats you wear? You are a busy author, manage an online portal and are also the director of Digital Marketing College, Dublin.
With difficulty! I am cutting down on my teaching and have a great assistant there now and we also have four full time staff at BooksGoSocial.com so it is getting easier. But I still work seven days a week. I enjoy it all too!
Reality is an amazing inspiration! I was reading about the Vatican's involvement with Adolf Hitler, which inspired me to write The Nuremberg Puzzle, out April 14th 2016.
Online news sites, and history books inspire me. There is so much that has been hidden. I want to make stories about it all!
What is your view on writer's block? Do you get them?
Yes, I do occasionally. It's hard to stay inspired, especially if life is difficult. Reading and finding time for writing helps, as will networking. It's not an easy road, being a writer, but it is hugely rewarding.
One question I ask all my guests - what's your favorite non-alcoholic drink?
Your advice to aspiring writers – how to create a personal – 'Write Scene'?
Persevere. Be patient. Be open to learning. Never give up! And good luck with all you do from all of us at BooksGoSocial.com.

2020 NFL strength of schedule rankings: Ravens and Steelers have it easiest, Patriots face roughest ride
Here are the strength of schedule rankings for all 32 teams heading into the 2020 season
By John Breech
May 7, 2020 at 12:59 pm ET • 7 min read
The NFL schedule release may be just hours away, but thanks to the league's overall schedule formatting, we know every game that will be played in 2020. We're simply now just waiting on the order. As we wait, there's no better time than now to dive into which teams face the toughest and easiest roads ahead based on their schedules. Remember all those years when everyone complained that New England had the easiest schedule in the NFL? Well, no one's going to be able to make that complaint this year, and that's because the Patriots will have the league's most difficult strength of schedule in 2020.
Based on the final standings from 2019, the Patriots will be going into 2020 with a strength of schedule of .537, making them one of only two teams in the NFL -- along with the Jets -- that will have a strength of schedule above .530. Bill Belichick better get his quarterback situation figured out quickly because the Patriots will be facing a brutal schedule that includes seven games against teams that qualified for the playoffs last year (Bills x 2, Ravens, Texans, 49ers, Seahawks), which is tied for the most in the NFL.
A big reason the Patriots schedule is so difficult is that they'll be playing both Super Bowl LIV teams in 2020 (Chiefs and 49ers). As a matter of fact, all four teams in the AFC East will have to face both the Chiefs and 49ers, and not coincidentally, those four teams will be playing four of the most difficult schedules this season (the Saints are the only other team in the NFL that will face both Super Bowl teams in 2020). Behind the Patriots, the Jets have the second most difficult strength of schedule in the league, the Dolphins have the third and the Bills have the fifth. It could be a long year for the AFC East.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, if you're looking for a division that could produce a few surprise teams next season, then you might want to look at the AFC North. Collectively, every team in the AFC North actually has a pretty easy strength of schedule in 2020, with all four teams set to play a schedule that ranks among the six easiest.
Don't be surprised if the Ravens repeat as division champs, and that's because Baltimore has BY FAR the easiest strength of schedule in the NFL at .437. To put that in perspective, no other team in the NFL has an SOS below .455. As for the other teams in the division, the Steelers have the second easiest strength of schedule in the NFL (.457), the Browns have the fourth-easiest and the Bengals have the sixth-easiest, which means if Joe Burrow gets drafted at No. 1 overall by Cincinnati, he'll likely be able to help the Bengals top their 2019 win total.
If you're looking for a team out of the NFC that could have a big 2020 season, don't be surprised if the Cowboys put together a solid year. In his first year as coach in Dallas, Mike McCarthy and the Cowboys will be facing an SOS of .459, which is the least difficult in the NFC. Basically, now might be a good time to jump on the Cowboys bandwagon, and the good news is, if you do jump on now, you'll be there before most actual Cowboys fans, who only jump on when the team is winning.
As for the two teams from Super Bowl LIV, the Chiefs probably have a better chance of repeating if we're looking at SOS only. The Chiefs are one of two teams that have a strength of schedule of exactly .500 (The Panthers are the other). On the 49ers end, they'll be playing the fourth-most difficult schedule in the NFL, and that mostly has to do with the fact that they have the hardest first-place schedule of any team. For winning the NFC West, the 49ers have to play the Packers and Saints in 2020, two teams that had a combined record of 26-6.
Now, before you complain about another team's strength of schedule, keep in mind that the schedule is inherently the same for everyone, whether you're playing a first place schedule or a last place schedule. Each team will play four games against a team that finished in first place in 2019, four games against teams that finished in second, four games against teams that finished in third and four games against teams that finished in last place (At the bottom of the page, you'll be able to see the formula the NFL uses to put the schedule together each year).
This formula is why a team playing a "last place" schedule (like the Dolphins) can have the fourth-most difficult schedule overall (Since all schedules are inherently the same, the biggest difference in each schedule is the division that you get stuck playing each year, and this season, the AFC East is playing the NFC West).
This formula is also why a team playing a "first place" schedule (like the Patriots) can have the most difficult schedule in the NFL while another team playing a "first place" schedule (like the Ravens) can have the easiest.
The biggest difference for those two teams is that the Ravens will have a much easier divisional schedule, as the Steelers, Bengals, and Browns combined to go 32-64 (They went 16-32, but you double both numbers since the Ravens play each team twice). On the other hand, the Patriots AFC East opponents went 44-52. Also, the Patriots are stuck playing the AFC West and NFC West, who combined to go 69-58-1. As for the Ravens, they get to face the AFC South and NFC East, two divisions that combined to go 56-72.
Advantage: Ravens.
The one thing about strength of schedule is that there's no perfect way to measure schedule difficulty before the season kicks off. Between injuries, free agency and the draft, a lot can change between now and the start of the season in September. That being said, strength of schedule does give you a good idea of what your favorite team will be facing in the upcoming season.
Here's the 2020 strength of schedule rankings for each team (combined 2019 record of all 16 opponents, combined winning percentage).

If you're curious about the scheduling formula, here's how the NFL does it. Under the formula implemented in 2002, every team plays 16 games as follows:
Home and away against its three division opponents (six games).
The four teams from another division within its conference on a rotating three-year cycle (four games).
The four teams from a division in the other conference on a rotating four-year cycle (four games).
Two intra-conference games based on the prior year's standings (two games). These games match a first-place team against the first-place teams in the two same-conference divisions that the team is not scheduled to play that season. The second-place, third-place, and fourth-place teams in a conference are matched in the same way each year.
Beginning in 2010, a change was made to how teams are paired in the schedule rotation to ensure that teams playing the AFC West and NFC West divisions would not be required to make two West Coast trips (e.g., at Los Angeles Chargers and at Raiders), while other teams in their division had none (e.g., at Kansas City and at Denver).
Finally, here's a link to a list of every home and away opponent that each team will play in 2020. The time and dates of each game will be released in the spring.

History, government professors hold panel, attempt to unravel "Trump Phenomenon"
By Ellie Gavin || Campus Life Editor
This Wednesday, professors from the Government and History departments hosted a panel discussing what they deemed "the Trump phenomenon"– that is, presidential candidate Donald Trump's surprising and enduring campaign success– and its effect on the upcoming presidential election. The panel included Chair of the History Department Van Gosse, Professor of History and Chair of Africana studies Maria Mitchell, Professor of Government Stephen Medvic, and Professor of Government Kerry Whiteside. The panel was hosted from 4:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. in the Lisa Bonchek Adams Auditorium and was open to the whole F&M community and the public.
The panel began with each panelist answering a different question about Trump, based on their particular discipline of study. Mitchell began the talk by offering her opinion on whether or not Donald Trump could be fairly called a fascist.
"Every news outlet has entertained this question," Mitchell said.
She went on to say that about half of all Americans believe that Trump's campaign exhibits fascism. Mitchell mentioned that Trump's "cult of personality," encouragement of violence and violent rhetoric, and endorsement of torture, especially with regard to the terrorist attacks in Brussels, resonate with many as seemingly fascist.
However, Mitchell disagreed, and said that Trump can not be accurately called a fascist.
"The scholarly consensus, with which I would concur, is no," Mitchell said. "He has not proposed in any serious way invading other countries, overthrowing American democracy, or scraping the constitution. He does not have a paramilitary organization."
Mitchell stressed that it is important to use the term "fascist," as well as comparisons to Mussolini and other fascist leaders, judiciously in honor of those who have been victimized by fascist and fascist leaders who started wars and enacted systematic genocides.
Next, Whiteside addressed the rhetoric of Donald Trump, and whether or not it undermines democracy.
"People who don't like Donald Trump tend to hate him," Whiteside said. However, Whiteside stated that whether or not individuals agree with Trump's ideology, there is danger in simply "writing him off" or claiming that Trump undermines American democracy.
"Democracy isn't always pretty. It's not always what I want," Whiteside said.
He mentioned that the quality of the arguments of democratic candidates has rarely ever been the deciding factor of democratic debate.
"It's the mobilization of passions and interests," Whiteside said. "The objective of marches and banners and oratorical appeals is always to demonstrate personal intensity and numerical strength."
"I would argue that democracy is more than mobilizing more people," he said. "Democracy has certain values and certain premises that are used to make it work."
Whiteside said these values include equality and good communication. In his opinion, Trump does not bolster these values.
"I think he uses a type of rhetoric that too frequently relies on the insult," Whiteside said. "In a country built by immigrants, he engages in gross negative generalizations about people who are criminals or rapists as a group."
Whiteside continued by saying that Trump's objectification of women and exclusion of Muslims further undermines the democratic value of equality that he has identified.
"I think he has single-handedly ratcheted down the quality of civil debate in this country, and especially in this debate, on ways that I have never seen in a Presidential debate in my lifetime," Whiteside said.
Next, Gosse addressed whether or not Donald Trump's success is unique to American Politics, and how new "Trumpism" really is.
"There is a habit of lawless contempt for government in our history mixed up with advocacy violence which Trump strokes."
Gosse touched on comparisons of Trump to Andrew Jackson, who was accused of "Ceasarism" back in 1818.
However, Gosse points out that this comparison is limited.
"There's nothing military about Trump at all. He's a playboy," Gosse said.
Finally, Medvic discussed the types of voters who are most attracted to Trump's campaign. In other words, who are Trump's supporters and why do they support him?
"In some ways, he doesn't appeal to many people," Medvic said, mentioning that Trump only has 37 percent of the Republican vote as the frontrunner in that race and only 31 percent of the vote nationwide, and is losing to Clinton head to head in every poll.
Medvic pointed to a "vacuum" left by the Republican party's inability to rally around any other candidate.
Medvic mentioned that there is widespread anti-political sentiment sweeping the country, and that many Trump supporters say that they like him simply because he is not a career politician, which Medvic called dangerous and contradictory.
"Trump is, in a way, a caricature of a politician on steroids," Medvic said.
Medvic noted that Trump fulfills many of the qualities that people say they do not like about politicians, including dishonestly, egotism, negative campaign strategies, and empty promises.
Additionally, he mentioned that most Trump supporters find him appealing because they are suffering from economic distress, and believe that as a successful business man, Trump may be good for the economy.
Medvic said that there is a portion of Trump's supporters who are attracted to his exclusionary rhetoric, as there is a dangerous growing phenomenon of "racial resentment" in the country. Although, he stresses that he does not believe that all Trump supporters are racists.
Following the panelists opening talks, the panelists took questions from the audience. If you are interested in hearing more about the "Trump Phenomenon" or the presidential race in general, consider attending a discussion on the Pennsylvania Primaries hosted by Ware College House on Wednesday, April 13th.

"I Need Romance 3" episode 16 recap – Finale!
Only March 5, 2014 July 28, 2018 episode recap, noona
Noona seduction technique #4672: leopard print lingerie, to appeal to the animal inside.
Side dish: I comforted myself while watching this episode by stuffing my face full of snacks. I ran out pretty quickly, but if I'd planned ahead, I would have gotten myself a box of assorted Japanese Kit Kat from J-list.com because Kit Kats are the best candy, and Japanese Kit Kats are the the best Kit Kats.
The final episode of "I Need Romance 3" opens with Shin Joo Yeon (Kim So Yeon) caressing the face of her sleeping lover, Joo Wan (Sung Joon), and having deep thoughts about love. She kisses him on the cheek, high on the bliss of having slept with a much younger man. He wakes up, and asks for a kiss on the mouth instead, which she happily provides. They snuggle, and I wonder at the amazing power of TV sex, where Joo Yeon has been completely transformed after one night with Wan. Who knows? Maybe he is that good.
Youngest team member Jung Hee Jae (Yoon Seung Ah) also wakes up in bed, but she's by herself. Her boyfriend, and sole male work colleague, Lee Woo Young (Park Yoo Hwan) comes in with breakfast and she hides under the covers, telling him not to look at her early morning hideousness. He admits to having already watched her in her sleep, and tries to pull the blanket away from her. She refuses, and asks him to bring her clothes. He complies, then dives under the covers. They giggle.
Driving in the car with Wan, Joo Yeon's happy face almost puts me off my Pocky, but she interrupts her staring at him for a flashback to a meeting in a café with her team. The arrival of a hot waiter prompts much swooning among the women. A miffed Woo Young says that the coffee shop owner hires hot waiters as a marketing strategy. His female teammates don't care and start a discussion about what's sexy in men.
Hee Jae mentions the waiter's voice, while oldest team member and unwed mother Lee Min Jung (Park Hyo Joo) counters with the waiter's hands. Joo Yeon, in full robot mode, has no interest in hot waiters or the discussion, which doesn't put off Min Jung, who goes on to discuss Adam's apples. Woo Young check his Adam's apple to make sure it's still there, while Hee Jae launches into a story about how men's necks are sexy when they back up their cars (WTF), and when they shave. Min Jung expresses a preference for firm thighs, and Hee Jae counters with a firm butt. Joo Yeon agrees for the first time, while Min Jung goes on to talk about the line from ear to neck. Woo Young, exasperated, counters that woman are complicated, while men only look at two things: chest and butt. I would be offended on behalf of all men and women by this discussion, but I'm too busy stuffing my face with snacks.
Back in the car with Wan, Joo Yeon waxes rhapsodic about his hotness in voice over. Wan's mind is on food, however, and he proposes that they eat brunch. In voice over, she also points out the awesomeness of his voice (okay, fair, I can get behind that), then agrees to go eat.
Woo Young shows off his car-backing technique for the easily impressed Hee Jae, who applauds his sexiness. He demands a kiss for his good parking job, and they giggle again. I take a break to find more Pocky.
Wan and Joo Yeon settle into a café. He pulls out her chair for her then walks off to order under her lustful gaze. As they eat, she notes the sexy way he drinks his coffee in voice over. He points out that she's acting weird, and in voice over she berates herself for ever thinking of him as 'Sweet Potato'.
Back at the office, Joo Yeon goes on about Wan's perfection (and his ankles for some reason) to Hee Jae, Min Jung, and frenemy and stylist Oh Se Ryeong (Wang Ji Won). Hee Jae mentions that she found him really hot when he played piano, while Se Ryeong brings up his eyelashes. Min Jung points out that everyone thinks he's hot, including the masses who listen to his radio show. Joo Yeon's happiness dims, as she begins to realize that she's in love with a hot commodity. Se Ryeong points out that he gets gifts from fans all the time, which he apparently never brings home. Everyone swoons over how hot he is for being considerate. Se Ryeong mentions that one of the women at her company, much younger than Joo Yeon, is a big fan of his.
As they leave the office, Se Ryeong asks Joo Yeon whether she's nervous about her relationship with him. When she admits that she is, Se Ryeong agrees that she has reason to be, since there's no such things as security in dating. Kang Tae Yoon (Namgung Min), ex-boyfriend to both of them and love of Se Ryeong's life, picks this moment to walk up to them. He mentions to Se Ryeong that he has heard the news that she's not moving companies. She tells him that she never meant to, since she has a reason to stay (meaning getting Tae Yoon back). He barely changes expression and leaves. When Joo Yeon asks Se Ryeong how she can say things like that so easily, Se Ryeong compares dating to a game, one that she's still playing with Tae Yoon. Joo Yeon is impressed with her confidence.
At Wan's radio booth, he's interviewing two female pop stars (I guess I should know them, but I don't), one of whom professes to having a crush on him. Embarrassed, but amused, he asks her what she likes about him. Joo Yeon, watching the interview on her laptop, gets progressively more annoyed as the two singers point out that he's good-looking, cool and sexy. He laughs and tells them that he hopes his girlfriend is watching. Joo Yeon's annoyance is deflated as he announces that he loves her on air. Joo Yeon gets all sappy and smug.
So sappy, in fact, that she waits outside the house for him. When he gets home, she asks him what he likes about her, since there are so many young and pretty women around him. He dismisses them all, since they're not her, then asks if he makes her feel insecure. She admits to it, and he takes it as a sign of affection. She confirms that she's insecure, because she likes him, and he tells her not to be, but instead to treat him really well, and to tell him that she missed him today. So she does, while making doe eyes at him.
The two of them snuggle on her couch while she thinks about how little has changed between them since he moved in, except now the nights are awkward. As if on cue, Wan suggests going to bed. Joo Yeon agrees, and scampers off to her room like a shy virgin (WTF), as he laughs uncertainly. Joo Yeon sits in her room restlessly, when she gets a message from Wan, asking where they should sleep. She's about to tell him that she'll go to his room, but thinks better of it, and decides to use psychological warfare learned from working in a home shopping network to get him to come to her. Tactic 1: Play hard to get. Wan refuses to respond to this and it's a failure. Tactic 2: Set a time limit. Another failure, as Wan tells her to go to sleep. Tactic 3: the bonus gift. She sends a message saying the giraffe wants to say good night to him, and finally he humours her. Joo Yeon celebrates her victory as Wan comes in to say good night to the giraffe, then kisses her. She pushes him down on the bed and they make out. Wan stops to tell Joo Yeon that he'd prefer it if she'd just say she wants to sleep together. If she can't learn to express herself, how is he supposed to know what she's thinking? Joo Yeon tells him to stay in her room, and they get down to serious monkey business.
Back in the office, Min Jung, Hee Jae and Joo Yeon listen as Se Ryeong talks about how direct she is if she wants sex. "What's the point of beating around the bush," asks Se Ryeong, "So what if you get rejected?" Min Jung wonders if Se Ryeong gets rejected, and Se Ryeong says that she does, since everyone has preferences.
Min Jung asks about doing stuff you don't like for the person you love, which Joo Yeon says she does. Hee Jae's hard limit is apparently sex in the car, which prompts the question whether Woo Young has ever requested that. Hee Jae denies vehemently. Se Ryeong says she likes doing it in the car, while Joo Yeon and Hee Jae disagree. Min Jung admits public sex is her biggest fantasy. They decide to play a game where they say their fantasies by pretending they're talking about someone else. Hee Jae brings up bondage, and the fact that she likes to do it with the lights on (then why was she so shy earlier?), but Woo Young is against it. Woo Young walks in before she can spill more beans about their relationship, prompting her to run away in embarrassment. The women giggle while Woo Young reports on his work. Min Jung tells him that Hee Jae doesn't like to have the lights off then runs away. Se Ryeong spills the beans about the bondage then leaves, while Joo Yeon just finds an excuse and takes off.
Annoyed, Woo Young pretends he has a phone call and goes out, calling Hee Jae to follow after him. Standing outside the building, they have an argument about her sharing his sex techniques with her friends. He tells her all the stuff he finds annoying about her and asks whether she'd like it if he told that to his friends. Guys don't tell their friends these things; they talk about other girls instead, he explains. Hee Jae counters that men share porn, which women find weird. I can't follow this part of the discussion, so I'm relieved when they get back on track. Woo Young asks how much she told, and Hee Jae says that it was only about the lights being out during sex. He tell her to wait and see if he turns out the lights next time, and she laughs.
Min Jung's Baby Daddy (Yoo Ha Joon) contemplates the logistical nightmare of having twins, then answers the door to a delivery for an order he doesn't remember making: a baby carriage for twins. At Min Jung's house, he shows her a baby store's worth of stuff he ordered while drunk. She finds his alcoholic tendencies cute, then tells him that they can take care of the kids while living separately, rather than marry. She tells him the kids will go under her family registry, to which he objects. She tells him that she's doing it so that he can run away at any time. He asks her if she goes to the hospital often, and she says yes, since she's older. She offers to show him her pregnancy journal, and the ultrasound photos if he ever wants to look at it.
Hee Jae and Woo Young are parked in a car overlooking the Han River, so it must be time for a serious confession. Woo Young assumes she's going to make the first move, but instead she turns on the radio to Wan's program. He's reading out anonymous messages, and he gets to one that's obviously her. It's long-winded, but I'll cut it short: Woo Young helped her to think about what she really wants, and it turns out she wants to travel by herself for a year. When Woo Young clues in that she seriously wants to go, they argue, while Wan sends them love messages over the air.
Joo Yeon listens to Wan as she attempts to cook. Chopping carrots is more annoying than working overtime for Joo Yeon, who's so domestically challenged that she looks totally unnatural in an apron. Wan gets home and checks in on her handiwork in the kitchen and finds that she's nowhere near finished. He's shocked at her low level of cooking competence, and she decides to give up. He stops her, saying she'll have to cook sometimes, and she needs the practice. They argue over who's going to do the dishes while I wonder where I can get some more Pocky. As Wan cleans up, he points out (to himself) that he's even eaten already. Brave man that he is, he makes a game effort to eat her sad-looking Vietnamese rice wraps. After chewing for a long while under her expectant gaze, he gives his approval and then points out what needs for improvement. He stops himself when she looks sad, and gives her a score of 30 points, then raises it to 31 when she pouts.
As they brush their teeth, Joo Yeon tells him she's going to sleep with him. Wan turns her down, saying he's busy. She says he's playing hard to get, and rejects his rejection. Wan dares Joo Yeon to make it impossible for him to reject her, so she takes off her fuzzy robe to reveal leopard print lingerie. Joo Yeon teases Wan with her sexy older woman wiles until he snaps and carries her into the bedroom.
Back at the office, Hee Jae tells Woo Young that she's going to turn in her resignation, and he tells her to do whatever she wants since they broke up yesterday. Meanwhile Joo Yeon and Min Jung are discussing starting a new team for the online shop and putting Hee Jae in charge of it, when they get called in to the senior director's office. Tae Yoon is already there, discussing Min Jung's situation with the senior director, telling her that the company needs to expand its childcare benefits to her, since she's irreplaceable.
Tae Yoon is dismissed as Joo Yeon and Min Jung enter, and the senior director gets right to it, telling them that Tae Yoon has convinced her to keep Min Jung on despite her impending single motherhood. She tells them that there's going to be more work as Tae Yoon is being sent to Hong Kong to be the global manager, and they assure her that they'll pull through.
As Joo Yeon and Min Jung get back to the office, Hee Jae stands up to announce her news, but is prevented by Woo Young who drags her out of the office. He drags her to a suitcase shop first, where he buys her a suitcase on a 12-month plan. When Hee Jae protests, Woo Young tells her not to talk, because he's really mad. She might be the first woman this ever worked on, because she actually stops talking. Woo Young then drags Joo Yeon to an electronics shop where he buys her a camera and a tablet PC, both also on a 12-month installment plan. He tells the guy in the shop that if his woman is human, she'll return to her boyfriend who's paying for her electronics on a 12-month plan. Hee Jae apologizes and says thank you, and Woo Young tells her not to talk again. She hugs him and tells him she loves him. He tells her to get off of him, because he hates her right now. She smiles with happiness.
Back at the office, Joo Yeon and Min Jung are flabbergasted to hear of Hee Jae's resignation, but since Min Jung has to go to the doctor, it's left up to Joo Yeon to try to talk her out of it. Instead, Joo Yeon dispenses some wisdom about doing what she wants to do, instead of becoming a robot like Joo Yeon.
At the doctor's, Min Jung is looking at an ultrasound of her twins with a worried Baby Daddy, who is reassured by the doctor that the fetuses are okay. Min Jung is amused with him.
Back at the office, Woo Young texts Hee Jae to confirm if she really turned in her resignation. She texts that since her boyfriend is paying for everything on 12-month installments, she's going to relax and go on her trip. Woo Young wishes someone pretty would come along to work there. Hee Jae asks if he wants to be with her tonight, and Min Jung tells them to get a receipt to be reimbursed for the hotel. They were having a private conversation in the group chat again, and Min Jung laughs at them as they freak out.
Wan is setting the table at home with wine glasses. He calls Joo Yeon to find out where she is, and she says she'll be home in 10 minutes. He pouts that she didn't say 'I love you', so she says it, and blows him a kiss. I wonder where I can go to buy more Pocky.
Joo Yeon calls Tae Yoon, who is at the airport, and tells him to come back safely from Hong Kong. He tells her he'll have too much work for that. Tae Yoon looks up to see Se Ryeong walking towards him, and tells Joo Yeon to be prepared, because he'll control the whole Asian market by the time he's back. She tells him she'll be a reliable junior and hangs up.
Se Ryeong came to the airport to give her last words to Tae Yoon. She hands him a necklace that he gave her, and tells him to put it back on her when he returns. Se Ryeong says goodbye and walks away as Tae Yoon stares at her back. Elsewhere in the airport, Woo Young is still trying to talk Hee Jae out of leaving. She's unmoved, and tells him she loves him. They hug each other.
Joo Yeon comes home to find Wan waiting outside for her. When she asks why, he says he wanted to see her that much sooner. They hug, and Joo Yeon tells Wan she loves him. Wan explains in voice over that the words "I love you" mean a pledge to make new moments every day.
Min Jung and Baby Daddy look over their ultrasound photo in a café, while the fake baby snoozes close by. He tells the fetuses he loves them, and kisses a surprised Min Jung on the cheek. As he pastes the photo into her pregnancy journal, she kisses him back.
Back with Wan and Joo Yeon, they reaffirm their love again, and start making out. Wan says in voice over (his mouth is otherwise occupied), how happy he is that Joo Yeon is able to say these words again, and believe in love. The series ends with a montage of their lovey-dovey moments.
It was nice to see some conflict in Woo Young and Hee Jae's relationship, as it's been nothing but sunshine and roses since the beginning of their consumer-based love. For Min Jung and her Baby Daddy, things seem to be looking up, even as we get more revelations about Baby Daddy; so far, an alcoholic commitment-phobe with stalker tendencies. Anyway, since he seems to be willing to raise his children, I'll forgive him for his small lapses in judgement, especially since eating all these snacks gave me a sugar crash by the end of the episode, and I was too dopey to be worried about it.
Joo Yeon's transition from robot to love marshmallow has been so sudden in these last two episodes that I haven't really caught up. She spent episode 14 grappling with the whole "feelings" thing, episode 15 acting like a 12-year-old girl, and now she's trailing hearts and flowers everywhere she goes. This may not seem that sudden, but we have 13 previous episodes of stupid robot behaviour to overcome, and I'm not sure this hurried conclusion really cuts it. I guess we're expected to believe that Wan really is that good in bed, to effect this magical transformation. Whatever. I guess it's nice to end on a happy note. Or maybe it's just nice to end.

StarKist Ordered to Pay $100 Million Criminal Fine for Antitrust Violation
Written by IVN
San Francisco, California - StarKist Co. was sentenced to pay a criminal fine of $100 million, the statutory maximum, for its role in a conspiracy to fix prices for canned tuna sold in the United States. StarKist was also sentenced to a 13-month term of probation.
StarKist faced a criminal fine of up to $100 million, the statutory maximum, for its participation in a conspiracy to fix the prices of canned tuna fish from as early as November 2011 through at least as late as December 2013. As part of Wednesday's sentencing hearing, U.S. District Judge Edward M. Chen found that StarKist had not proven that its financial circumstances justified a lower criminal fine. The Antitrust Division opposed StarKist's request for a fine reduction, arguing that StarKist had sufficient financial resources to pay a $100 million criminal fine. In addition to the criminal fine and term of probation, StarKist has also agreed to cooperate in the Antitrust Division's ongoing investigation.
"Today's result demonstrates our commitment to enforcing the antitrust laws aggressively against companies that fix prices," said Assistant Attorney General Makan Delrahim of the Justice Department's Antitrust Division. "Hard-working Americans deserve the benefits of open competition when they spend their hard-earned money on items that stock kitchen shelves. When a corporation cheats customers at the checkout line, the Antitrust Division will hold it accountable to the greatest extent."
"The consequences for greedy companies who cheat the marketplace and American consumers are significant and clear," said FBI San Francisco Special Agent in Charge John F. Bennett. "The FBI, along with our law enforcement colleagues, will continue to pursue those who conspire to fix prices and bring them to justice."
A total of six charges have resulted from an ongoing federal antitrust investigation into the packaged-seafood industry, which is being conducted by the Antitrust Division's San Francisco Office and the FBI's San Francisco Field Office. Anyone with information on price fixing, bid rigging or other anticompetitive conduct related to the packaged-seafood industry should contact the Antitrust Division's San Francisco Office at 415-934-5300

wtc (World Trade Center)
Formerly called The World Trade Centre, the wtc is a shopping mall located in Causeway Bay, that over looks the harbour. The building was originally developed in the 70's, and housed the Palace theater, a luxury cinema that showed American movies and catered to upper class clientele. In the 90's the theater was turned into a shopping complex and renamed the The World Trade Center. In 2006 the building got a splashy new facelift, and a trendy new name. It's now known as the 'wtc', and is home to mid-range fashion and lifestyle brands.
The wtc mall is one of those places that shines from the inside out. The spacious floor plan and impressive glass walls and floors make the wtc a pleasure to shop in. The shop selection is somewhat limited, but, the stores they do have are well stocked.The brands you'll find at wtc are a collection of mid-range, mass-market shops such as bread n' butter, and BESS. You'll also find large branches of Uniqlo, agnes b., and Muji stores that occupy multiple floors.
The wtc is connected to the Excelsior Hotel, and the restaurants on the upper levels cater to that crowd with several Michelin Guide recommended restaurants such as Hainan Shaoye, Kiriyaki Japanese Restaurant, Kung Tak Lam Shanghai Vegetarian, Shànghăi Lù Yáng Cūn Restaurant. If you're looking for eats that aren't so fancy try Crystal Jade La Mian Xiao Long Bao, COVA Caffè, or pick up some sweets at Carousel Fine Cake and Pastries.
