I was born in New York City in 1935 and grew up in suburban New York, Connecticut, and western Pennsylvania, moving there in 1950. I attended the College of William and Mary from 1954-1956 and graduated from Stanford University in 1958 with a degree in Biological Sciences. In 1962 while studying at Tulane University, I became interested in Mexican fishes during an internship and focused my dissertation on the evolutionary problem of species of Chirostoma being restricted to one river system in Mexico. In 1963 I spent the summer in central Mexico collecting fishes with Salvador Contreras to fill gaps in previous collections and visited a limnological station to make collections from a lake.

Bracero Program
The Bracero program was an agreement between the US and Mexico from 1943 to 1964 that allowed Mexican citizens to work temporarily in US agriculture. It was created to address US labor shortages during WWII. The agreement outlined protections for braceros such as housing, wages, and prohibiting discrimination. However, many Mexican workers also entered the US illegally to find work due to economic difficulties in Mexico. The program established a pattern of Mexican migration to the US for employment.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
