Bryan Cranston gives tribute to Mark Margolis after his death

Bryan Cranston gave a heartfelt tribute to his Breaking Bad co-star Mark Margolis on Instagram after his sudden death. He shared two images of the actor, writing that he was “very saddened” by his death on August 3.

He wrote: “Mark Margolis was a really good actor and a lovely human being. Fun and engaging off the set, and (in the case of Breaking Bad and Your Honor) intimidating and frightening on set.”

He continued: “His quiet energy belied his mischievous nature and curious mind… And he loved sharing a good joke. I miss him already. Rest now, Mark and thank you for your friendship and your exceptional body of work.”

The first picture was of Margolis from the show Your Honor, on which Bryan worked with him as well and the second one was from the hit series Breaking Bad. The pair became good friends as they worked together from season two to season four of Breaking Bad.

Bryan plays the protagonist of the show Walter White who is a chemistry teacher suffering from stage three cancer and begins to produce and distribute drugs for money. Meanwhile, Margolis played an ex-drug kingpin who was left without the ability to speak or walk after suffering a stroke.

Prince William, Kate have left Prince Harry, Meghan in shade, winning PR

Prince William and Kate Middleton will be able to do wonders on their first official visit to the US.

The Prince and Princess of Wales are set to mark their maiden visit to NYC after King Charles’ coronation and the couple is tipped to overshadow Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

Mike Parker writes for express.co.uk: “His busy 48-hour schedule during New York Climate Week is not, however, expected to include any contact with his estranged west coast based brother Prince Harry, whose own popularity – along with that of his wife Meghan – is plummeting in America.”

He then quotes PR guru Mark Borkowski: “William and Kate’s ‘charm offensive’ and ‘master class in image branding’ has left the Duke and Duchess of Sussex “in the shade,”

“Their image now far outweighs Harry and Meghan’s social media issues and their attempt to conquer Hollywood,” the commentator notes.

Srinagar: (Azadi Times) Kashmiris on Friday marked the fifth anniversary of the August 5th decision, in which India revoked the special status of Jammu and Kashmir and divided the region into two union territories.

The decision was met with widespread protests and condemnation from the Kashmiri people, who felt that it was a violation of their fundamental rights.

On the anniversary, Kashmiris held protests across the region, calling for the restoration of their special status and demanding that their democratic and constitutional rights be respected. In Srinagar, the capital of Jammu and Kashmir, protesters clashed with security forces, resulting in several injuries.

In a statement, the J&K Awami-e-Tehreek, a Kashmiri political party, said that the August 5th decision was “a day of injustice” and that the Kashmiri people would never forget it. The party said that it still had hope that the Supreme Court of India would restore their rights.

The J&K Awami-e-Tehreek also called for peace and stability in Kashmir, but said that it should be a “realistic” peace, not one that is used as a “propaganda tool” to gain votes. The party said that the current situation in Kashmir is far from peaceful, with frequent protests and clashes between security forces and civilians.

The J&K Awami-e-Tehreek also expressed concern about the lack of employment opportunities in Kashmir. The party said that it has been five years since the August 5th decision, and there has still been no election in the region. This means that Kashmiris have not had a chance to elect their own representatives, who could address the region’s economic and social problems.

The protests on Friday are a reminder that the August 5th decision is still a source of anger and resentment among many Kashmiris. It remains to be seen whether the Supreme Court will be able to resolve the situation and restore peace and stability to the region.

Psychic predicts about Meghan Markle, Prince Harry’s love life amid divorce rumours

Celebrity psychic and astrologer Inbaal Honigman has reflected on love life of Meghan Markle with her husband Prince Harry amid their divorce rumours.

The Daily Express quoted Inbaal as saying that Meghan Markle, who celebrated her 42nd birthday on Friday, would feel ‘destabilized’ in love during the month of August, because of Venus retrograde.

Predicting some misunderstandings in Meghan’s love life with Prince Harry, the astrologer said Meghan’s 42nd birthday on August 4th is a time when the planet Venus, which rules love and the home, happens to be in retrograde.

She further explained, “A retrograde is a time when a planet goes against its natural inclination, and during Venus in retrograde, this could be an uneasy time for love.”

The celebrity psychic went on to say, “The Many people would feel destabilized in love during the month of August, because of Venus retrograde, especially Librans and Taureans, like her son Archie, who are ruled by the planet Venus.”

“This Venus retrograde also hits Leos stronger, because the planet Venus happens to be in the sign of Leo for the entirety of the retrograde.

“This means that Leos, like Meghan, could experience a few romantic misunderstandings. This uneasy time around love lasts until September 3rd, 2023.”

Celebrity psychic Inbaal’s predictions came amid reports Meghan and Harry’s marriage was on the rocks.

Zuljanah is a symbol of love, loyalty, and sacrifice in the history of Islam. It is a horse that stood by Imam Hussein (AS) during the battle of Karbala and demonstrated its devotion until the end. Zuljanah is not just a horse, but a symbol of the profound emotions and values that the Shia Muslims uphold to this day.

During the battle of Karbala, Zuljanah carried the banner and sword of Imam Hussein (AS) towards the tents and informed Bibi Zainab of Imam’s martyrdom. Bibi Zainab then went towards the site of the massacre where she witnessed the beheading of her brother Abbas.

After the martyrdom of Imam Hussein (AS), Zuljanah himself also passed away in an extremely wounded state. The women of the Ahlulbayt faced many hardships after the Imam’s martyrdom, which people continue to mourn to this day.

Zuljanah demonstrated its love and loyalty towards Imam Hussein (AS) and stood by him until his last breath, despite being severely injured. It also killed many soldiers of the Yazidi army during the events of Karbala. Zuljanah means “possessing wings or feathers,” and its name is a testament to its loyalty and devotion.

Shia Muslims hold great love and respect for Zuljanah and take care of it during the month of Muharram. On the tenth of Muharram, which marks the anniversary of the martyrdom of Imam Hussein (AS), Shia Muslims hold mourning processions and Zuljanah is also present with them in remembrance.

During the procession, Zuljanah is adorned and included in the procession, and arrows are tied to its body in remembrance of the battle of Karbala, the great sacrifice of the Imam, and Zuljanah’s loyalty, which is presented as a tribute.

Zuljanah is not just a symbol of the battle of Karbala, but also a reminder of the values that Imam Hussein (AS) represented and fought for. It reminds us of the importance of love, loyalty, and sacrifice in our lives.

Zuljanah is a symbol of the Shia Muslim’s commitment to remembering and honoring the sacrifices of the Ahlulbayt. It is a reminder of the great sacrifices made by the companions of Imam Hussein (AS) and their unwavering devotion to the cause of justice and truth.

In conclusion, Zuljanah is not just a horse, but a symbol of love, loyalty, and sacrifice. It is a reminder of the profound emotions and values that the Shia Muslims hold dear. It reminds us of the importance of remembering and honoring the sacrifices made by the companions of Imam Hussein (AS). Zuljanah is a symbol of the Shia Muslim’s unwavering commitment to justice and truth, and a testament to their devotion to the Ahlulbayt.

Rawalakot, August 3, 2023 – Thousands of people took to the streets in Azad Kashmir on Saturday to protest against the recent price hikes of flour and electricity, Kashmir Issue, as well as other issues.

The protests were held in several cities across the region, including Mirpur, Rawalakot, Muzaffarabad, Kotli, and Dadyal.

In Rawalakot, the protest was called by the traders’ association in response to the government’s decision to increase the price of flour by Rs. 5 per kilogram and the arbitrary tax on electricity bills.

The protesters gathered in Rawalakot and blocked all major roads leading to the city. They also chanted slogans demanding that the government make flour and electricity cheaper, as well as release political prisoners and grant Azad Kashmir independence.

The Bar Council of Poonch also supported the protest and no lawyers appeared in the courts on Saturday.

The protest was largely peaceful, but there were some minor clashes between the protesters and the police.

The protesters have vowed to continue their protest until the government meets their demands.

The protesters are demanding that the government address the rising cost of living, as well as other issues such as corruption and poor governance.

The protests in Azad Kashmir are also part of the Kashmir issue:

The people of Azad Kashmir have long been demanding that the government of Azad Kashmir take a more proactive role in the Kashmir issue. They are also demanding the release of Yasin Malik, a Kashmiri leader who has been imprisoned by the Indian government.

The government need to address the concerns of the protesters if it wants to maintain peace and stability in the region.
