Legendary Indiana University basketball coach Bob Knight has died. He was 83 years old. Children with disabilities are entitled to a public education, but when schools don't fulfill that obligation, it's often left to parents to fight for their rights under federal law. State Treasurer Daniel Elliott said in a statement that the bond purchase reflects his confidence in Israel's victory over the forces of evil. The Indiana Department of Natural Resources said the spotted lanternfly has now entered Elkhart, Porter, and St. Joseph counties. Want to go deeper on the stories you hear on WFYI News Now?

If you hate the 17 year cicada, I'm sorry to tell you about the spotted lanternfly that's coming soon to a town near you. This insect is not a fly, but a leafhopper. It sucks the juices out of trees and plants using its needle like mouth. It then covers everything in a sticky sweet mess that attracts stinging insects and sooty mold. So what can you do? We invited James Watson from the WVDA to help us out. Tune in to find out!

This sprightly invasive insect, native to parts of China and Vietnam, was first sighted in the United States in 2014. Since then, the Spotted Lanternfly has spread to 14 states, including nearly every county in Maryland. Its voracious appetite and rapid population growth has made it a high-priority invasive pest for scientists and pest management agencies across the nation. Kenton Sumpter, an entomologist who works in the Spotted Lanternfly Suppression Program for the Maryland Department of Agriculture, joins us to discuss the tiny planthopper, its life cycle and the threat it poses to Maryland's native flora and fauna. Sightings of Spotted Lanternfly can be reported on the Maryland Department of Agriculture's website. Additional information on the pest can be found there, as well. Plus, a fresh-cut lawn is seen as a classy sign of status for many people. But for others its a sign of ecological degradation. Now, some organizations are trying to encourage less lawns and more indigenous plant life. The Green Townson Alliance began holding the Native Garden Contest in 2020 to encourage the growth of native plants, shrubs and trees in yards in Towson neighborhoods. Tanya Ray is a winner from last year's Native Garden Contest. She was awarded in the Breaking Ground category for newly planted native gardens. Ray joins us to talk about the inspiration behind her garden, and how new gardeners can take their first steps towards including more indigenous plants.

Invasive pest, the spotted lanternfly (SLF), has been reported in four Ohio counties and 14 U.S. states. The brightly colored red and grey leafhopper poses an economic threat to Ohio's specialty crop producers. Entomologist Dr. Ashley Leach's new research project detects SLF in the environment using biomonitoring, a process that tests for DNA left behind by the destructive pest. Early detection of the SLF could help producers better prepare and possibly reduce the damaging effects of SLF. Visit stopslf.org to learn how to stop the SLF.

After Hurricane Ian, Robots To The Rescue Hurricane Ian made landfall in southwest Florida Wednesday, with winds over 150 miles per hour, high storm surge and heavy rains. As the storm, now weaker, is projected to move northward, search and rescue operations are setting out to assess the damage – with help from robots, both flying and swimming. Producer Christie Taylor talks with David Merrick, who is leading the emergency management team responsible for flying drones over areas hit by disasters like Ian, about what it takes to use robots in these contexts and how they help speed up response and recovery efforts.   Vague Medical Marijuana Rules Leave Workers and Employers in the Dark Vague legal safeguards for medical marijuana users in Pennsylvania are forcing patients to choose between their job and a drug they say has changed their life, and leaving skittish employers vulnerable to lawsuits, according to a three-month Spotlight PA investigation. While state law protects workers from being fired or denied a job just for having a doctor's permission to use marijuana, those protections become opaque when people actually take the drug — regardless of whether they do it in their personal time. “It essentially makes no sense,” Pittsburgh attorney John McCreary Jr., who represents employers, told Spotlight PA. Some jobs are specifically regulated by state and federal drug testing rules, but most fall into a gray area that leaves the interpretation of the rules up to employers and the courts. That leads to inconsistency and what employers see as a lose-lose scenario: Either risk a wrongful termination suit, or potentially allow an unsafe work environment.

The mission, known as DART (for ‘Double Asteroid Redirection Test') was an effort to try out a potential means of planetary defense. NASA wanted to discover: Is it possible to change the path of an approaching asteroid by slamming something into it? On Monday evening, the DART spacecraft slammed into the small asteroid moonlet Dimorphos, which orbits a slightly larger asteroid called Didymos. Pictures taken from onboard the spacecraft showed the rocky, rubbly terrain of Dimorphos approaching closer and closer, then disappearing, while telescopes observing the impact and cameras on a neighboring Italian Space Agency CubeSat showed a plume of debris ejected from the asteroid. Dr. Nancy Chabot, the DART coordination lead and a planetary scientist at Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory, which built the spacecraft and is managing the mission for NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office, joins host John Dankosky. They talk about the impact, and what scientists hope to learn about asteroids and planetary defense from the crash.   High-Flying Trick-Or-Treat Delivers Rabies Vaccines For Raccoons Rabies is one of the deadliest diseases in the world. It's fatal in 99% of cases. Because of that, rabies prevention has been one of the most important—and successful—public health initiatives in the US. To contain rabies outbreaks, the USDA leads a mass vaccination effort from August to October to keep the disease from being carried by critters. It's an action-packed adventure involving raccoons, helicopters, and fish-flavored candy. SciFri's director of news and audio, John Dankosky, speaks with Jordona Kirby, the rabies field coordinator for the USDA's National Rabies Management Program. She's based in Milton, Florida.   Can Lanternflies' Excretions Be Used To Quell Their Spread? As the invasive spotted lanternfly continues to spread west in the United States, researchers are trying to better understand—and perhaps find a way to control —the behavior of the pretty, but ravenous, insects. Important agricultural crops, including grapes, peaches, and apples are especially at risk from the spreading infestation. As the lanternflies feed on tree sap, they excrete a sweet-smelling liquid known as honeydew. That liquid can attract other insects, and can also allow fungus to grow on affected trees. Writing in the journal Frontiers In Insect Science this week, researchers from the USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service report that chemicals in the honeydew may act as a signaling agent among the lanternflies—in some cases attracting others of the species. The finding may help explain the way in which the insects can infest a given tree in huge numbers, while leaving neighboring trees largely alone. John Dankosky talks with the paper's lead author, Dr. Miriam Cooperband of USDA APHIS, about her research, and whether the finding may lead to a way to bait or repel the invasive insects.   Transcripts for each segment will be available the week after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

Dave Aranda, head football coach of the Baylor Bears and not the Nebraska Cornhuskers, will march his team into Ames, Iowa for a bout with the Cyclones on Saturday. Iowa State enters the game as a 2.5-point favorite, and the Bears are 3-8 on the road under Aranda. There's a lot stacked against the Green and Gold this week, but the Friday sermon series continues with a biblical look at how Baylor can secure a win. The Pigskin Preacher likens the Bears and Richard Reese to Gideon this week in a game where Iowa State, like the Midianites, love tents. Baylor can hopefully break Blake Shapen out of his passing slump to strike against an Iowa State team that has yet to face a decent offense.

Teen Innovator's New AI Tool Helps Create Affordable Drugs The U.S. has some of the highest prescription drug prices in the world, which can push patients into bankruptcy over medications they cannot afford. More than three in four American adults think the prices of prescription drugs are unaffordable, prompting the Senate to recently pass a bill intended to help lower prescription drug costs for seniors. One young innovator set out to find his own solution. 17 year-old Rishab Jain developed ICOR, a tool to improve the rapid production of drugs like COVID-19 vaccines. Ira talks with  Jain from Portland, Oregon, about his innovation and vision for the future.   When Trapping Invasive Bugs Is Science Homework The spotted lanternfly, an invasive species, was first introduced to the U.S. in Pennsylvania, around 2014. Since then, it has spread aggressively, and has now been spotted in 11 states. The bug is pretty—adult spotted lanternflies are about an inch long, and feature striking spotted forewings and a flashy red patch on the hindwings. But they are also very hungry, and pose a significant threat to agricultural crops, including grapevines. Many control efforts have focused on either stomping the insects on sight, or on spotting and destroying the egg masses that the lanternflies lay in the fall. However, researchers have been developing trapping techniques for the bugs as well. One, involving a sticky band looped around a tree, is effective—but can also snare other insects and even birds. Experts at the Penn State Extension have come up with a new style of circle trap for lanternflies, based upon an existing trap for pecan weevils. Now, STEM educators at Rutgers University are using that design as the starting point for an engineering design challenge, asking K-12 teachers and students to come up with improvements to the design.

There's a big difference between this school year and last: All children are now eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine. This means the risk of disease will likely be way down, compared to the past two autumns, according to vaccine researcher and pediatrician Paul Offit. But for kids who have already been infected by COVID-19, will the vaccine add meaningful immunity? “My answer to that question is yes,” Dr. Offit tells Ira. “Then you can be sure that they will then develop the kind of immunity that will likely lead to fairly long-lived protection against serious illness.” Ira and Dr. Offit also discuss the risk of monkeypox and polio spreading in schools, and how to best keep our kids safe against infectious disease this fall.   The Countdown Begins For Humanity's Return To The Moon NASA's largest and most powerful rocket ever began inching its way to Launch Pad 39B at Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Tuesday night. Over twelve years in the making, the long-delayed, over-budget Space Launch System rocket is finally nearing its first chance for liftoff at the end of this month. The August 29th targeted launch will mark the beginning of the Artemis program—NASA's series of missions designed to send humans to the Moon and, eventually, Mars. The multi-billion dollar orange rocket now stands taller than the Statue of Liberty, resembling a colossal upside-down carrot. Its maiden uncrewed flight will carry a trio of mannequins equipped with radiation sensor vests in preparation for crewed flights slated for 2024. These future missions will be the first to return people to the Moon since Apollo 17 in 1972.

The spotted lanternfly — an insect native to Asia — has invaded fourteen states mostly in the northeast and mid-Atlantic regions of the United States. The pest is not toxic to humans, but threatens many important plants and crops, including apple trees, cherry trees, peach trees, and grapevines. Ethan breaks down the latest on this invasive species and contemplates if the issue is being communicated properly to people in this week's “Tip of the Iceberg.” The Sweaty Penguin is presented by Peril and Promise: a public media initiative from The WNET Group in New York, reporting on the issues and solutions around climate change.

The spotted lanternfly has arrived in North Carolina with the potential for great environmental damage. Mike Collins and our panel of guests discuss what residents should know and ways to mitigate the spread.

Our conversation for Extension Office Friday welcomed back Extension Agents Mark Sutphin & Joanne Royaltey from the Frederick County Extension Office. Mark & Joanne work out of the VCE-Frederick County office but also serve Clarke, Page, Shenandoah, and Warren Counties. Today we got an update on the Spotted Lanternfly invasion and talked about the expanded quarantine area. Mark & Joanne explained why the quarantine is in place and was expanded and let us know that reporting SLF on your property is no longer necessary. Joanne gave some do's and don'ts for "disposing" of the pest and examples for getting kids involved. The Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (VDACS) announced on July 8, 2022 that Virginia's Spotted Lanternfly Quarantine has expanded to include the counties of Albemarle,Augusta, Carroll, Page, Prince William, Rockbridge, Rockingham, Shenandoah, and Wythe and the cities of Buena Vista, Charlottesville, Harrisonburg, Lexington, Lynchburg, Manassas, Manassas Park, Staunton, and Waynesboro. Frederick, Clarke and Warren counties and the city of Winchester, which were previously included in Virginia's Spotted Lanternfly Quarantine and will remain so until further notice. To slow the spread of the spotted lanternfly, businesses in the quarantined area are required to obtain a permit from VDACS and inspect regulated articles to ensure that the articles do not contain any life stage of the insect. Regulated articles are those which are considered to be a risk for movement of spotted lanternfly to un-infested areas and include, but are not limited to: Any life stage of the spotted lanternfly; Live or dead trees; nursery stock; green lumber; firewood; logs; perennial plants; garden plants or produce; stumps; branches; mulch; or composted or un-composted chips, bark, or yard waste; Outdoor industrial or construction materials or equipment; concrete barriers or structures; stone, quarry material, ornamental stone, or concrete; or construction,landscaping, or remodeling waste; Shipping containers, such as wood crates or boxes; Outdoor household articles, including recreational vehicles; lawn tractors or mowers; grills; grill or furniture covers; tarps; mobile homes; tile; stone; deck boards; or Any equipment, trucks, or vehicles not stored indoors; any means of conveyance utilized for movement of an article; any vehicle; or any trailer, wagon. The permit application is available for download at www.vdacs.virginia.gov/plant-industry-services-spotted-lanternfly.shtml. Online training is required prior to submitting the permit application. There is a fee of $6 per person for the training, but no fee for the permit. Once training is completed, businesses must submit the completed permit application to VDACS at SpottedLanternfly@vdacs.virginia.gov. The quarantine also requires residents and visitors in the area to inspect regulated articles for spotted lanternfly and ensure those articles are free from the invasive insect prior to leaving the quarantined area. Residents and visitors are not required to obtain the spotted lanternfly permit, but are strongly encouraged to learn how to identify spotted lanternfly and kill the pest insect when found. Joanne mentioned during our conversation that there were links in her email signature. You can email her here: royaltey@vt.edu but below are all of the links & more information. Please do share this info with your neighbors. Combating SLF will truly ‘take a village' and it is up to each resident to do their part! If you have any questions or need additional information, please do not hesitate to reach out to Joanne.
