Hey @FedEx @FedExHelp... one of your employees failed to do their job properly and now I have important documents that cannot be sent back to me until I obtain a commercial invoice. I have communicated with 5-6 of your employees in multiple departments and emailed two accounts.

None of them (in person or over the phone) have been able to help me solve this issue so far and keep telling me to call another number or email another address. How difficult can it be to generate a document when you already have ALL the information in your system?

Our Leafhoppers in North America symposium was a huge success with 70 attendees! We covered exciting topics like climate change, migration, vectoring capacity, brochosomes, biocontrol, and RNAi. This event was dedicated to Dr. Lowell R. “Skip” Nault, a pioneering expert in leafhoppers who organized the first-ever leafhopper symposium—this being only the second in @EntsocAmerica history. An amazing #EntSoc24 so far! 🐞

Curious about Cesar Rodriguez-Saona research ? He’ll be presenting at the symposium *Leafhoppers in North America* during @EntsocAmerica! Join us on November 10th at 1:30 PM in room 131B, Phoenix Convention Center 👏🏼
Cesar Rodriguez-Saona @RutgersU found that Phytoplasma infection in #cranberry alters plant chemistry by increasing nutrient levels and decreasing defensive compounds, enhancing #herbivore performance both above & belowground. rebrand.ly/jhd6sre #OpenAccess @WileyEcolEvol

It's a good feeling when you open up your @Scopus search alert and you are one of the authors! Congrats @bugsabout1 on your final PhD paper from @USaskEnt ! Berenice determined all of the waveforms produced by leafhopper feeding on different tissues.
