Sunday sunrise over Day 1 of Entomology 2023. Lots in store, with symposia and talks already under way! #EntSoc23
A view of the Gaylord National Resort and Conference Center and surrounding neighborhood in National Harbor, Maryland, from the north over the river. Thin clouds in the sky show hues of pink and yellow as they're illuminated by the rising sun out of frame to the left. The water is mostly still and reflecting the buildings and sky. A brown metal jetty extends in to the water on the left in the foreground.

I listened to a great podcast this morning. This is why the work of @entsocamerica and the Vector Borne Disease Network we lead is so important. Because, as the Daily says ... right now The Mosquitoes Are Winning nytimes.com/2023/10/05/podca…

The Mosquitoes Are Winning (Published 2023)

The rapid evolution of the insect has helped drive up Malaria deaths in Africa, fueling a growing public health threat.

We banished bugs from our lives. Now it’s coming back to bite us. My latest "Milbank bought the farm" column, which calls on everybody to do less yardwork. wapo.st/3R4Ib43

Opinion | Don’t you dare rake your leaves this fall

If the mass extinction of insects isn’t reversed, it will decimate the entire food chain, threaten crop pollination and generally cause havoc.

Great piece in today's print WaPo (yes, I'm still that guy). Thanks to @Dr_Akito for highlighting the plight of the often underappreciated moths. washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

Opinion | Look at a moth — and find a wonder that’s been waiting all along

Their kaleidoscope of colors and patterns ranges from dazzling to cryptic, epitomizing the art of camouflage.

As a parent of a freshman, alumni, and a friend of the WVU entomology department, it is horrifying to hear that the Ento faculty is being halved due to-what seems to be-avoidable administrative bloat at the top of the University.
