HRC Commander, Maj. Gen. Richard P. Mustion; Chief of Staff, Col. BJ Constantine Jr.; and Sgt. Maj. Linda M. Kessinger of the Enlisted Personnel Management Directorate, took on the tough task of picking winners from among the outstanding decorative efforts during a walking tour of the complex Dec. 18.
The trio served as the final arbiters of creative candidates selected by each HRC directorate. Yet, even while assessing each finalist, the short morning tour made it clear that HRC Soldiers and civilians throughout the complex had expended considerable creativity, thought and humor in adorning their doorways and workspaces and with an impressive range of decorations.
The winners of this year’s Door Decorating Contest are: First Place: EPMD; Second Place: G-3, Command Staff; and Third Place: OPMD. The CG will present trophies to the winning teams early in the New Year.
In addition, myriad individuals brought a bit of mirth and holiday cheer to life in offices all around the Maude Complex. Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

De Meelfabriek is een industrieel complex dat bestaat uit verschillende grote gebouwen. Hier werd ooit meel geproduceerd, en de verschillende soorten graan werden per boot aangevoerd over de aangrenzende singels. De fabriek begon in 1883 en moest in 1988 de deuren sluiten.
Het complex is nu een van de belangrijkste overblijfselen van het rijke industriële verleden van Leiden geworden en maakt deel uit van het Nederlandse industriële erfgoed.
The Meelfabriek is an industrial complex of several large buildings that produced flour from different types of grain, brought in by boats on the canal. It grew in different phases from 1883 until 1988, when production was closed down.
The complex has now become the major remaining piece of Leiden’s industrial past and an important document of the industrial heritage of the Netherlands.

Explanatory notice about the two former railways at Astor's halt (Ferry Reach Junction) on the north shore of St. George's Island, Bermuda.
Red line is route of Astor's railway (Ferry Reach Railway), about 500 m long. Broad white trail which passes the halt on N. shore is Bermuda Railway Trail. This follows the trackbed of the former standard gauge (1435 mm) Bermuda Railway which ran the length of Bermuda. Astor's house (Ferry Reach House) is the large V-shaped complex at the opposite (S) shore end of the his railway, now apartments. In Parish of St.George's.
(Gauge of Astor's railway is variously said to be 24" (610 mm) gauge, as on this notice, or 18" (457 mm). Since taking this photo I have measured the track gauge in various places where it is still visible and it was consistently 18.25" (464 mm), so notionally 18" (457 mm). Astor's locomotive mentoned on this notice was actually built by the Baldwin company.)

Visits to the Legislative Council Complex by schools/organizations (2015.03.18)
A temple complex in the city of Nara was built in the year 743. The best-known relic at Todaiji Temple is its Daibutsu, a colossal statue that, with 15 meters in height, is the world's largest gilded bronze Buddha. It is housed in an all-wood building, the Daibutsu-den, 48 meters in height, the largest wooden building in the world.
Nov.4, 2018: The Karnak Temple Complex, commonly known as Karnak, comprises a vast mix of temples, chapels, pylons, and other buildings near Luxor, in Egypt.
A cult temple dedicated to Amun, Mut and Khonsu. The largest religious building complex ever constructed. The temple of Karnak was known as Ipet-isu—or “most select of places”—by the ancient Egyptians. It is a city of temples built over 2,000 years and dedicated to the Theban triad of Amun, Mut, and Khonsu. This derelict place is still capable of overshadowing many wonders of the modern world and in its day must have been awe-inspiring.
For the largely uneducated ancient Egyptian population, this could only have been the place of the gods. It is the largest religious building ever made, covering about 200 acres (1.5 km by 0.8 km), and was a place of pilgrimage for nearly 2,000 years. The area of the sacred enclosure of Amun alone is sixty-one acres and could hold ten average European cathedrals. The great temple at the heart of Karnak is so big that St Peter’s, Milan, and Notre Dame Cathedrals would fit within its walls.
The Hypostyle hall, at 54,000 square feet (16,459 meters) and featuring 134 columns, is still the largest room of any religious building in the world. In addition to the main sanctuary there are several smaller temples and a vast sacred lake – 423 feet by 252 feet (129 by 77 meters). The sacred barges of the Theban Triad once floated on the lake during the annual Opet festival. The lake was surrounded by storerooms and living quarters for the priests, along with an aviary for aquatic birds.

The Egyptians believed that towards the end of annual agricultural cycle the gods and the earth became exhausted and required a fresh input of energy from the chaotic energy of the cosmos.
To accomplish this magical regeneration the Opet festival was held yearly at Karnak and Luxor. It lasted for twenty-seven days and was also a celebration of the link between pharaoh and the god Amun. The procession began at Karnak and ended at Luxor Temple, one and a half miles (2.4 kilometres) to the south.
The statue of the god Amun was bathed with holy water, dressed in fine linen, and adorned in gold and silver jewellery. The priests then placed the god in a shrine and onto the ceremonial barque supported by poles for carrying. Pharaoh emerged from the temple, his priests carrying the barque on their shoulders, and together they moved into the crowded streets. A troop of Nubian soldiers serving as guards beat their drums, and musicians accompanied the priests in song as incense filled the air.
At Luxor, Pharaoh and his priests entered the temple and ceremonies were performed to regenerate Amun, recreate the cosmos and transfer Amun’s power to Pharaoh. When he finally emerged from the temple sanctuary, the vast crowds cheered him and celebrated the guaranteed fertility of the earth and the expectation of abundant harvests.
During the festival the people were given over 11000 loaves of bread and more than 385 jars of beer, and some were allowed into the temple to ask questions of the god. The priests spoke the answers through a concealed window high up in the wall, or from inside hollow statues.

At MBU's new 47,000 square foot Carl and Deloris Petty Sports and Recreation Complex. October, 2011.
The complex was comprised of two fires - the Saddle and Stud Fires - which merged on August 22, 2011 into one fire that burned more than 32,200 acres on the Salmon Challis (16,649 acres) and the Bitterroot (15,588 acres) National Forests in Idaho and Montana. Portions of the fire were within the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness. To see more fire photos visit www.inciweb.org/incident/2496

Il John F. Kennedy Space Center (KSC) è la struttura per il lancio di veicoli spaziali (spazioporto) della NASA e si trova a Cape Canaveral sull'isola Merritt in Florida, USA. È situato a metà strada tra Miami e Jacksonville. Lunga 55 km e larga mediamente 10, copre in tutto un'area di 567 km².
Nel complesso lavorano circa 17000 persone. C'è un centro visitatori e molti tour turistici, infatti il KSC è la maggiore destinazione turistica della Florida. Siccome buona parte del KSC non presenta costruzioni, ospita una importante riserva faunistica.
Le operazioni vengono costantemente controllate dal "Launch Complex 39" (complesso di lancio 39), nel "Vehicle Assembly Building" (edificio di assemblaggio dei veicoli). A 6 km a est dal palazzo, ci sono le due rampe di lancio. Mentre il centro amministrativo e le strutture di supporto si trovano a 8 km a sud, nell'area industriale del KSC.
Solo le operazioni di lancio del KSC si effettuano al Launch Complex 39. Tutte le altre operazioni di lancio, vengono effettuate al "Cape Canaveral Air Force Station" (CCAFS), gestita dall'Aeronautica americana (U.S. Air Force).
