Looking back, what was accomplished? The end of World War II sundered the Korean peninsula, leaving half allied with the Soviet Union, half with the U.S. Ready to reunify the country by force — and, with help from Moscow, strong enough to dare it — North Korea sent its tanks south across the 38th parallel on June 25, 1950. Communist leader Kim Il Sung hoped to destroy the U.S.-backed regime of South Korean President Syngman Rhee in a bold blitzkrieg.

Some would argue that this kind of lyrical analysis was popularized by the era of Taylor Swift, with her sharp songwriting that alludes to past relationships, prompting fans to search for breadcrumbs to help solve the “mystery” of who each song is about. We’ve seen the breathless theorizing that Swift’s “All Too Well” was about actor Jake Gyllenhaal.

Tens of millions of Americans have hit the road this summer. The all-American road trip has long been a signature adventure, but once upon a time the notion of your own motorized excursion of any length would have seemed impossible. In 1900, Americans were hampered by wretched roads and limited by the speed and endurance of the horses that powered buckboards, coaches, and wagons. If they had an urge to travel far distances, they had to rely upon the steam locomotive.

If you’ve got a Visa credit card, take a look at the bottom right corner. Below the VISA logo, you’ll see the word “Signature,” “Infinite,” or nothing at all. The difference is meaningful because each tier unlocks benefits of varying quality. For example, a Visa Infinite credit card may unlock top-tier travel insurance and fancy airport lounge access, while a traditional Visa credit card doesn’t. But get this: Just because your credit card is capable of offering a suite of benefits doesn’t mean it will.

WeightWatchers has been through a lot of changes recently. In 2018 the popular weight loss program changed its name to WW with an updated mission: “Wellness That Works.” For the first time, that mission includes medications. Last spring, the company acquired Sequence, a digital health company, which allowed members to get prescriptions for weight loss drugs.

The dangers of Soviet military espionage may be receding, but U.S. security officials are awakening to a spy threat from a different quarter: America’s allies. According to U.S. officials, several foreign governments are employing their spy networks to purloin business secrets and give them to private industry. In a case brought to light last week in the French newsmagazine % L’Express, U.S. agents found evidence late last year that the French intelligence service Direction Generale de la Securite Exterieure had recruited spies in the European branches of IBM, Texas Instruments and other U.
