This year’s symposium was hosted at Metro Convention Centre, in Toronto | Learn more about Canada’s Best Managed Companies.
Symposium: A range of topics were on the agenda this year– from innovation to leadership to talent strategies and much more. The CEOs and senior management teams of winning companies leveraged this day to learn and connect among one of Canada’s strongest business networks. Over 800 people attended this year’s symposium.
Managed by the Nature Conservancy, this 1,600-acre nature preserve is located in Preston County, West Virginia and Garrett County, Maryland. From the Nature Conservancy site - "A window into ice ages past, Cranesville Swamp is located in a "frost pocket," an area where the surrounding hills capture moisture and cold air that conspire to create a landscape more reminiscent of habitat found much further north in Canada. Given Cranesville Swamp’s lush forest and wetland, it’s not surprising that it is home to an exceptional variety of animals. In total, more than 50 rare plants and animals live at Cranesville." Did not see a ton of birds, mostly they were high up in the trees - along with the squirrels. But I did see a hairy woodpecker and a few butterflies. Still, it was a nice day to be in the preserve on my visit, Thursday August 10th, 2017.

CEA recently managed the unloading, transportation and storage of 13 Komatsu 830 E Ultra Class Haul Trucks. The trucks from Indonesia will be stored by CEA in Thailand.
Each truck weighs 164 Tonnes and has a carrying capacity of 200 Tonnes, compared to a traditional transmission/differential drive the Komatsu’s use an electric drive system instead that can provide 2,400 HP.
The 13 trucks arrived on the Vessel HR Recommendation at Laem Chabang Port, Terminal C0, C0 was the chosen terminal due to its proximity to the CEA Free Trade Zone facility which is less than 1km away. The trucks were lifted form the vessel and lowered onto an awaiting 24 axle Combination SPMT, CEA teams secured the truck in place on the trailer ready for the short transportation across the port.
During transportation each truck was shadowed by a CEA Escort vehicle until arrival at the Free Trade Zone. A specialised reinforced ramp was constructed at the CEA Facility that facilitated the unloading from the SPMT Trailer. Each truck was driven under its own power down the ramp and continued on to the assigned storage location.
All 13 trucks were processed well within the three day timeframe and under budget, both CEA and the client were very happy with the execution of the project

Matching was one of the earliest churches I visited for Flickr in 2006 and since then I've had a lot more practice. Matching was long overdue for a revisit and I managed it during wildly variable weather - cold rain and hail alternating with bright warm sunshine.
The church of St Mary The Virgin, Matching, stands on a green in the centre of the parish, close to Matching Hall. It comprises a chancel with north organ chamber and vestry, south chapel, nave with north and south aisles, south porch, and west tower. The walls are of flint rubble with stone dressings; the porch is of brick and timber.
www.flickr.com/photos/barryslemmings/sets/72157629437584408/ to see the full set.
A church probably existed around 1150, when Hugh, dean of Matching, is recorded. Vicars are recorded from 1274, but the list is far from complete until 1368. Before the 17th century incumbencies were short. Between 1433 and 1553 there were at least 15 vicars, of whom 12 or more left by resignation. In the neighbouring parish of Hatfield Broad Oak, where the vicar's income was similar, there were only five vicars between 1423 and 1548, all of whom died in office. That suggests that it was not merely the poverty of the living that made Matching unattractive. Possibly the isolation of the parish was a more important factor. In the 15th and 16th centuries several vicars were pluralists. Robert Horne, vicar 1546–53, held Matching with a London rectory and the deanery of Durham. He was later bishop of Winchester.
A 12th century chancel remained until 1873, but the nave was rebuilt, with three-bay aisles, early in the 13th century. The south aisle was widened in the later 14th century, and the central window and south doorway, partly restored, survive from that period. In the 15th century a plain square tower of three stages and the south porch, of which an original tiebeam remains, were added. The church was renovated in 1730 and again in 1770, when the roof was repaired and ceiled.
The church was restored and enlarged in 1875 to designs by Sir Arthur Blomfield, at the cost of Sir Henry Selwin-Ibbetson. The nave was extended one bay eastwards, the north aisle, chancel, and south porch were rebuilt, and the north organ chamber and vestry and the south chapel were added. The roof timbers were renewed, but three 14th century corbels remain in the south aisle.
The church has six bells, the oldest of which date from 1615 and 1640; two others, of circa 1500, were recast in 1875. The font, which dates from the 15th century, has an octagonal bowl with shields of arms. The octagonal carved and pannelled pulpit was given in 1624 by Richard Glascock of Down Hall. The canopy was removed in 1875. Few monuments survived the 1875 restoration.
The Marriage Feast room, immediately west of the church, was built, probably in the later 15th century, for the entertainment of poor people on their wedding day. It was used as an almshouse in the 18th century, and as a school in the early 19th century. The building was restored in 1897 and was later used as a church hall. It is of two storeys, timber-framed and plastered. The main room, which occupies the whole of the upper floor, has a crown post roof of four bays. It is approached from the outside by an integral staircase in the north-west corner. The ground floor originally had one dividing wall but was later made into several smaller rooms.

I was allowed to make pictures during the ceremony of acceptance of a new member, this one was made during only almost total candle light so there was a lot of visual noise. With some processing I managed to let it look like an old magazine picture. You see us waiting until the candidate will be brought into the Lodge for his very first time.

Wakehurst, previously known as Wakehurst Place, is a house and botanic gardens in West Sussex, England, owned by the National Trust but used and managed by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. It is near Ardingly, West Sussex in the High Weald (grid reference TQ340315), and comprises a late 16th-century mansion and a mainly 20th-century garden, and Kew’s Millennium Seed Bank, in a modern building. Visitors are able to see the gardens, the mansion, and also visit the seed bank. The garden today covers some 2 square kilometres (500 acres) and includes walled and water gardens, woodland and wetland conservation areas.
RBG Kew has leased the land from the National Trust since 1965 and much has been achieved in this time, from the Millennium Seed Bank project and the creation of the Loder Valley and Francis Rose Nature Reserves to the introduction of the Visitor Centre, the Seed café and Stables restaurant along with the development of the gardens.
Wakehurst Place is listed Grade I on the National Heritage List for England, and its gardens are listed Grade II* on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens.[1][2]
The stables are listed Grade II* and the South Lodge and gateway is listed Grade II.
History
Wakehurst Place mansion was built by Sir Edward Culpeper in 1590. It originally formed a complete court-yard prior to being altered various times, and currently has an E-shaped plan. Wakehurst was bought in 1694 by Dennis Lyddell, comptroller of the Royal Navy treasurer’s accounts and briefly MP for Harwich. His son Richard Liddell, Chief Secretary for Ireland and MP for Bossiney, was obliged by financial pressure to pass the estate to his younger brother Charles.[5]
The house rated an illustration in Joseph Nash, The Mansions of England in the Olden Time (1839–49).
The gardens were largely created by Gerald Loder (later Lord Wakehurst) who purchased the estate in 1903 and spent 33 years developing the gardens.[6] He was succeeded by Sir Henry Price, under whose care the Loder plantings matured, Sir Henry left Wakehurst to the nation in 1963 and the Royal Botanic Gardens took up a lease from the National Trust in 1965.
National Collections
Wakehurst is home to the National Collections of Betula (birches), Hypericum, Nothofagus (Southern Hemisphere beeches) and Skimmia. The Great Storm of 1987 decimated Loder's plantings, toppling 20,000 trees.[7] Since then, Kew has redesigned the gardens to create a walk through the temperate woodlands of the world.
Millennium Seed Bank
The Wellcome Trust Millennium Building, which houses an international seed bank known as the Millennium Seed Bank (run by Kew, not the National Trust), was opened in 2000. The aim of the Millennium Seed Bank is to collect seeds from all of the UK's native flora and conserve seeds from 25% of the world's flora by 2020, in the hope that this will save species from extinction in the wild.

Audience member during Question and Answer period.
In 2015-16, the Standing Panel on Impact Assessment commissioned a set of studies to document the adoption and impact of five well-recognized natural resource practices that were developed, adapted, and promoted by CGIAR centers, research programs and its partners. The practices—conservation agriculture, fertilizer tree systems, alternate wetting and drying (AWD), integrated soil fertility management (ISFM), and micro-dosing of fertilizer—were all expected to enjoy large-scale acceptance among smallholder farmers where they were promoted in South Asia, Southeast Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa. Results have landed and they are sobering. The low adoption rates reported by these studies provide an important reality check on the returns to some natural resources management (NRM) research investments, and suggests the need to rethink the impact pathways through which NRM research is expected to contribute to sustainable development outcomes—outcomes that nonetheless depend acutely on changes in the way we manage scarce natural resources.
This policy seminar provides insights from economics, integrated landscape strategies, and geospatial analytics to recommend ways forward for NRM research that most effectively contribute to the development of sustainable production systems, while also highlighting innovative methods and tools to evaluate adoption and impact more precisely.

El Nido-Taytay Managed Resource Protected Area (16/05/2006)
The El Nido-Taytay Managed Resource Protected Area is located on the north-western tip of the mainland of Palawan. In 1991, the Government of the Philippines proclaimed Bacuit Bay as a marine reserve. In 1998, the protected area was expanded to include terrestrial ecosystems and portions of the municipality of Taytay. It is now known as El Nido-Taytay Managed Resource Protected Area, which covers over 36,000 hectares of land and 54,000 hectares of marine waters. It contains towering limestone cliffs, beaches, mangroves, clear waters, unique forests over limestone and neat farmlands. It is home to five (5) species of mammals, including the Malayan Pangolin and 16 bird species endemic to Palawan including the threatened Palawan Peacock Pheasant, the Palawan Hornbill and Palawan Scops Owl. Bacuit bay is also home to the dugong, dolphins and marine turtles, many of which are threatened species. Colorful coral reef fishes are found here. Some of these are the: butterflyfishes, parrotfishes, wrasses, triggerfishes, angelfishes, surgeonfishes, damsel fishes, emperors,snappers, groupers and rabbit fishes.
In 1984, the then Ministry of Natural Resources issued a MNR Administrative Order No 518 establishing a 36, 000 hectare area in North-western Palawan as a Marine Turtle Sanctuary The El Nido Marine Reserve was expanded by virtue of DENR Administrative Order No. 14 Series of 1992, upon recommendations of the El Nido and Taytay Municipal Mayors to address livelihood opportunities for fishers. Proclamation No. 32 dated October 8, 1998 was passed to Congress for deliberation. Since 1989, several different government and non-government programs and projects have been introduced in the area.
