Fawad has shed his chocolate hero avatar here and still looks like a million bucks. The first half is engaging as we get to know about Jatt’s family life while the Natts are boundlessly wreaking havoc despite rifts in the clan. Read: Fans root for The Legend of Maula Jatt ahead of its release Every serious exchange comes after an amusing verbal brawl and is followed by an action-laden dramatic scene, so as to keep you hooked. The film is edited so brilliantly that it keeps you on the edge of your seat while Punjabi barraks and one-liners serve as breathers. It has a linear narrative and takes only a few minutes to show a background story – the death of Maula’s parents, kidnapping of Rajjo, Daro’s birth – while moving forward with the subject. With remarkable visuals, awe-inspiring performances, clap worthy dialogues, thoroughly etched out characters, crisp editing and high production value, the team has delivered a spectacle in the form of TLOMJ. ![]() Troubled by his unknown past, Maula becomes a drunkard who fights in matches to earn money and is adored by Mukhoo (Mahira Khan) since childhood. The child, who is a son of a brave Sardar, grows up with a hidden identity and becomes a seemingly silent but fierce warrior. Maula is traumatized by lost memories of the brutal murder of his parents and is haunted by dreams he doesn’t understand. The Punjabi film revolves around the life of Maula Jatt (Fawad Khan), an orphan raised by Daani (Raheela Agha) along with her son Mooda (Faris Shafi). And alongside meaningful life lessons, the plot is driven by good-ol‘ virtue wins over evil mantra. It is a tall tale that has an invincible but king-hearted hero, ferocious villains, blood, gore, glory, romance, bromance, marauding horses, gandasa fights and deaths in the most vehement ways. TLOMJ is a blend extraordinaire of well executed CGI and extravagant sets that showcase a fictional land in Punjab, whereby lies Nasir Adeeb’s famous characters from the Maula Jatt universe. And each one of them – from the inception, the team who toiled behind the camera to those who performed in front of the camera – deserves a standing ovation for bearing the weight of a crown that today dazzle as The Legend of Maula Jatt (TLOMJ). Bilal is indeed the mastermind behind this universe, but the charge of a cinematic masterpiece like The Legend of Maula Jatt relies heavily on every warrior who is a part of the reboot of this cult classic. ![]() Heavy is the head that wears the crown the statement reverberates in mind as I witness Bilal Lashari’s magnum opus finally unravel on big screen. ![]() ![]() Leaving Mordor under the control of his greatest servants, Sauron went north to Eregion, and there over the next century forged the Rings of Power with the Elven-Smiths that lived there. Then also began the construction of Barad-dûr, the Dark Tower, a vast, unassailable fortress east of Orodruin.īy SA 1500, Mordor had grown to become a significant power in Middle-Earth, and Sauron’s schemes began to extend beyond the borders of his realm. He enslaved the land of Nurn, converting it into farmland tilled by armies of Mannish slaves. He began to fortify the land, building up great fortresses at crucial points and filling the wastelands with camps for his soldiers. In Mordor Sauron called the remnant of the forces of Angband to him, and gathered armies of Orcs, Trolls, Wolves, and Men. In the cone of Orodruin he built the Sammath Naur, the Chambers of Fire, so as to exploit the mountain as a forge there, in the heart of Orodruin, he founded the realm of Mordor, and declared himself its Dark Lord. The former servant of the first Dark Lord came to Mordor in the year 1000 of the Second Age, determined to build a fortress for himself against the growing power of the Men of Númenor. By the end of this period, Mordor had become much like it is today, surrounded on three sides by the Ash Mountains and Mountains of Shadow, spurs from which split the land into the ash plains of Lithlad and the volcanic plateau of Gorgoroth.Īt the heart of Gorgoroth was a volcano called Orodruin, which came to be known in later years as Mount Doom, and it was this fiery mountain that drew Sauron to Mordor. At the end of the First Age, the War of Wrath caused massive volcanic activity that tore apart the land, which once had been much more fertile, rendering it a wasteland. The Black Land of Mordor is widely known as the home of the greatest threat to the free lands of Middle-Earth, a land long since destroyed and ruled by a power beyond the strength of any other. The power of Sauron grows by the day, and soon all of Middle-earth will fall sway to him and his servants! The faction of Mordor is indisputably evil and formidable, a black tide that threatens to sweep the Free Peoples of Middle-earth into the Sea. ![]() Based in the land of Mordor, this faction is composed of millions of foul creatures, most notably the Mordor Orcs, who serve their Dark Lord alongside a number of other fell beings. The greatest of the forces of the Shadow, the Mordor faction is the strongest power in Middle-earth, with plans to crush the Free Peoples and dominate the world. Mordor is the fearsome realm of the Dark Lord Sauron, utterly subservient to his will. Mordor Orc ( archer, bombardier, chieftain, trader), Mordor Warg, Black Uruk ( archer), Black Uruk Captain, Olog-hai, Mordor Spider, spider keeper, Orc Slaver Mordor, Dagorlad, Nindalf, Emyn Muil, Wilderland, Gondor and its provinces ![]() The Quraysh, who were his tribe and his family, constantly ridiculed, humiliated and oppressed the Prophet (saw) and his followers. Enjoy!Īl-Isra’ wal-Mi’raj took place during a time when the Prophet (saw) was facing intense hardship and pain. This blog will narrate the first half of the Miraculous Journey and we have included as much detail as we could. In fact, there were many stops along this incredible journey, and the story is packed with wonders and miracles. Many of us only know the basic story of Al-Isra’ wal-Mi’raj - that the Prophet (saw) was transported from al-Masjid al-Haram to al-Masjid al-Aqsa, from where he (saw) ascended to heaven. Be fair and take care out there.Al-Isra’ wal-Mi’raj (the Night Journey & Ascension) is a miracle second only to the revelation of the Qur’an, and it is therefore important that we don’t let this night slip by without reflecting on its lessons and its significance. Thank you for taking the time to read my review, I hope that it was helpful - please rate it accordingly. I'm pleased to have this one as part of my personal collection and revisit it often. The interactive menus and CD ROM extras are all well done and add well to the whole package and overall DVD experience. The 2 different Commentary Tracks and Deleted Scenes, in particular, are all excellent and provide lots of insightful background info. ![]() Music Videos, Trailers, Production Notes and Special Effect Featurettes are standard fare. Of course, the DVD is loaded w/ worthw hile extras. I was pleasantly caught off-guard by the originality of the story's direction a different twist on the Space Exploration/ Sci-Fi/ Time Travel genre. This modern remake also features 3 of the original Lost in Space cast members in cameo roles! The intense action and standout special effects is what really makes this one worth checking out. Starring a great cast: William Hurt (of Dark City), Matt LeBlanc (of TV's Friends), Gary Oldman (of The 5th Element) also featuring Mimi Rogers and Heather Graham (both of Austin Power's fame). This version manages to give a great ohmage to the campy-classic Lost in Space TV series, while being truly original on it's own as a modern Sci-Fi film. This film is definately one of my favorite modern "remake" movies. Get LOST IN SPACE w/ the family "Danger, Will Robinson" This is the reason I award this move four stars instead of five. I assumed he was unavailable because of his involvement in Babylon 5, but that wasn't the case. What would have Mumy's cameo scene was very obviously intended for him and was greatly diminished by his absence so much so that when I saw it the first time, I found myself distracted wondering why the hell he wasn't in it. From what I've read, he was asked to appear and agree to do it, but the director got cold feet and decided it would distract audiences from the story. Unfortunately, Billy Mumy (Will Robinson) wasn't among them. A treat for fans is the cameo appearances by several of the original TV cast members. It updates the classic 1960s TV series without ridiculing it or descending into parody. It's a really fun movie with an engaging story and excellent (for its time) special effects. This move got poor reviews when it came out and is now pretty much forgotten, but I cannot for the life of me figure out why. Unfortunately and unfairly, Lost in Space has been lumped into that ignoble category. Most of the were atrocious and best forgotten. In the 1990s and early 2000s, Hollywood seemed to churn out big screen adaptations of classic TV shows by the handful. An underrated film that truly deserves to be considered a classic. ![]() Forget IFC4, Revit can’t even do IFC2x3 properly, even though IFC4 has been an ISO spec since 2013. Regardless of the IFC MVD, it will never allow modification of the IFC. Revit will develop a mapping and create a special Revit file just to read and perform the most rudimentary filtering on the IFC file. The simplest IFC of a few kB will take 15 seconds to import and in the process Revit will multiply the filesize by at least 10. Will your building element turn up at all? Will it even export? Will it import? Ah, the mysteries of the universe. Revit deals with IFCs very poorlyĮxporting to an IFC? Will your roofs become IfcRoof, or will Revit decide your roof is a slab instead? Will your windows become IfcWindow? Who knows. In contrast, the first thing that you do when you launch FreeCAD to create a BIM project is to define a building with storeys in that building that belong to a site. Have a shared site with mix-use buildings where two buildings merge? Now you’ve got a maintenance nightmare. No way of categorising a shape to represent a building or that some levels are part of building A and some are part of building B. If you have two buildings next to each other, Revit has no way of saying that some walls belong to building A, and some belong to building B. You can categorise walls, floors, roofs … but a building? Nope. Revit has failed to implement even the most basic of BIM concepts: a building. ![]() An example of Revit failing to consistently deal with openings in an irregularly shaped wall With this background, I hope to present a fair but critical list of issues I have faced with Revit. I have also used a great deal of software on many platforms, including 3D modeling as practiced by the CG industry, point clouds, programmatic typesetting with Lilypond and LaTeX, and am also closely following OpenBIM initiatives. Therefore, the concepts of decoupling, interfaces, modularity, Robert Martin’s famous code smells of fragility, rigidity, and so on, and technical debt, are all applicable in this field. There are ever-changing client requirements, lots of small pieces that interact, and domino effects of changing the design in one area. ![]() Software architects deal with many of the same issues as BIM data management. I have a background in software development, previously working as a software architect. However, I have certainly used it to document projects, and have used Revit’s API. I speak from the perspective of an architect working on large commercial projects across different building typologies, and therefore do not use the MEP aspects, which may be better than I have experienced here. Its function is to build a 3D “BIM” model of a building and lay out 2D documentation in the traditional form of drawing sheets. Revit is a proprietary software developed by the monopoly Autodesk for the AEC industry. Join the OSArch community today and help drive community-driven AEC tools. It is under heavy development, but all early adopters are welcome. We are now developing a 100% free and open-source native OpenBIM authoring tool called BlenderBIM. Black-box BIM data is no longer acceptable by companies with a large real-estate portfolio. Data about our built environment is a human right and should be transparent and not governed by a vendor. Update: The popularity of this article has shown the industry needs to break out of the unethical behaviour by proprietary vendors, which result in proprietary incompatibility, proprietary obsolescence, and proprietary subscription. I would play down the title to something more politically correct, but that would risk understating Revit’s limitations that I have to deal with on an almost daily basis. ![]() Beautiful icons and an updated interface. ![]() Immerse yourself in the highest quality picture and sound.

While the imperial government of the Roman Empire was rarely called into question during its five centuries in the west and fifteen centuries in the east, individual emperors often faced unending challenges in the form of usurpation and perpetual civil wars. Legitimacy Ĭoin of Pescennius Niger, a Roman usurper who claimed imperial power AD 193–194. Competing claims of succession to the Roman Empire have also been forwarded by various other states and empires, and by numerous later pretenders. In the aftermath of the conquest, Mehmed II proclaimed himself kayser-i Rûm (" Caesar of Rome"), thus claiming to be the new emperor, a claim maintained by succeeding sultans. The line of emperors continued until the death of Constantine XI Palaiologos at the fall of Constantinople in 1453, when the remaining territories were conquered by the Ottoman Turks led by Sultan Mehmed II. Over the course of the centuries thereafter, most of the imperial territories were lost, which eventually restricted the empire to Anatolia and the Balkans. Under Justinian I, in the sixth century, a large portion of the western empire was retaken, including Italy, Africa, and part of Spain. ![]() Given that "Byzantine" is a later historiographical designation and the inhabitants and emperors of the empire continually maintained Roman identity, this designation is not used universally and continues to be a subject of specialist debate. Historians typically refer to the empire in the centuries that followed as the " Byzantine Empire", orientated toward Hellenic culture and governed by the Byzantine emperors. ![]() The fall of the Western Roman Empire is dated either from the de facto date of 476, when Romulus Augustulus was deposed by the Germanic Herulians led by Odoacer, or the de jure date of 480, on the death of Julius Nepos, when Eastern emperor Zeno ended recognition of a separate Western court. However, formally the Empire remained a single polity, with separate co-emperors in the separate courts. This division was consistently in place after the death of Theodosius I in 395, which historians have dated as the division between the Western Roman Empire and the Eastern Roman Empire. For most of the period from 286 to 480, there was more than one recognized senior emperor, with the division usually based on geographic regions. Historians consider the Dominate period of the empire to have begun with either Diocletian or Constantine, depending on the author. In 330, Constantine the Great, the emperor who accepted Christianity, established a second capital in Byzantium, which he renamed Constantinople. The rise of powerful barbarian tribes along the borders of the empire, the challenge they posed to the defense of far-flung borders as well as an unstable imperial succession led Diocletian to divide the administration of the Empire geographically with a co- augustus in 286. Īfter the Crisis of the Third Century, Diocletian increased the authority of the emperor and adopted the title "dominus noster" (our lord). Often, the emperors themselves, or close family, were selected as consul. The chief magistrates of the republic were two consuls elected each year consuls continued to be elected in the imperial period, but their authority was subservient to that of the emperor, who also controlled and determined their election. Under the republic, the Senate and People of Rome authorized provincial governors, who answered only to them, to rule regions of the empire. The territory under command of the emperor had developed under the period of the Roman Republic as it invaded and occupied much of Europe and portions of North Africa and the Middle East. For example, Augustus's official name was Imperator Caesar Divi Filius Augustus. The modern word "emperor" derives from the title imperator, that was granted by an army to a successful general during the initial phase of the empire, the title was generally used only by the princeps. The style of government instituted by Augustus is called the Principate and continued until the late third or early fourth century. The title of Augustus was conferred on his successors to the imperial position, and emperors gradually grew more monarchical and authoritarian. Augustus maintained a facade of Republican rule, rejecting monarchical titles but calling himself princeps senatus (first man of the Senate) and princeps civitatis (first citizen of the state). The Roman emperors were the rulers of the Roman Empire from the granting of the name and title Augustus to Octavian by the Roman Senate in 27 BC onward. A famous statue of Augustus ( r.27 BC – AD 14), the first Roman emperor Here's hoping he won't have to do it again on the sports' biggest stage, but way to make the best out of an annoying interruption, regardless.
