Union Netflix While looking for something to watch on Netflix this weekend, my wife and I decided on The Union, an action spy movie with a dash of comedy starring Mark Wahlberg and Halle Berry. It wasn't good. The Union felt more mediocre than anything I've seen in a while. Critical and audience reviews were middling to poor and seemed to say the same thing.

VATICAN CITY (CNS) — Pope Francis' visit to Asia and Oceania in September will be a journey of religious, economic and social contrasts. The 87-year-old Pope will visit four countries from September 2 to 13, making it the longest journey of his papacy in terms of both distance traveled and number of days away from the Vatican. The journey will also take him to Muslim-majority Indonesia and Christian-majority Papua New Guinea, as well as Asia's economic powerhouse Singapore and Timor-Leste, one of the world's poorest countries. The trip was planned for September 2020, but the COVID-19 pandemic put everything on…

According to the Cyberint research team that discovered the malware, it is distributed in the form of malicious installers for legitimate applications targeting Korean and Chinese speakers.
