  • If you watched yesterday's show, this map might look kind of familiar in the 2020 US presidential race, votes were still being counted Thursday evening and there were several states in which CNN still had not projected a winner.

  • Now that might have changed in the overnight hours and CNN dot com.

  • We'll have the latest, but the candidates themselves were both saying victory was within reach yesterday.

  • Former Vice president Joe Biden said he had no doubt that when the count was finished, he'd be declared the winner.

  • He asked people to stay calm while the process plays out.

  • Last night, Republican incumbent President Donald Trump said he easily won the legal vote.

  • But he suggested many votes were being counted illegally and that the issue would be taken up in court.

  • We don't know what the next steps are or how long this will play out as far as official state counts went.

  • Last night, fewer than 100,000 votes separated the two candidates in five of the states that hadn't been called yet so very thin margins of victory either way, and all of the remaining states have a winner take all method of choosing electors.

  • What that means is that even if a presidential candidate wins by one vote, he or she still wins all of the state's votes in the Electoral College.

  • So that gives you a sense of why these counts are so important and so closely watched when there's an election also unknown where the outcomes of several races in the House of Representatives and the Senate.

  • But political analysts expected that though Democrats would lose seats in the House, they'd still have the majority there.

  • And they believe that the Republicans would lose at least one seat in the Senate.

  • They'd still have the majority there.

  • But again, these figures weren't final.

  • So though Election Day wrapped up on Tuesday, some political uncertainty remains.

  • A new study out of Canada suggests teenagers should spend less time looking at screens and mawr time involved in activities.

  • The findings, published in the journal Preventive Medicine, were based on a survey of 28007th graders in British Columbia.

  • They answered questions about how much time they spent watching TV streaming videos playing video games versus how much time they spent an extracurricular activities like sports and music programs.

  • Then they ranked how good they felt about each day when they woke up from their answers.

  • Researchers concluded that teens who spent more time and activities were mentally healthier and less anxious and depressed than those who spent more time with screens, and the study suggested that extra screen time was especially harmful to girls.

  • For them, researchers say, the negative effects were stronger.

  • So how much screen time is too much?

  • The Canadian Pediatric Society says all adolescents should have less than two hours of screen time per day, and that guideline factored into the study.

  • But it's important to point out that the information for it was gathered between 2014 and 2018 years before the coronavirus pandemic hit.

  • And this year, with fewer opportunities to see friends and participate in extracurricular events, teenagers have shown higher levels of depression and anxiety, according to other research.

  • The lead author of the Canadian study says even though it's harder to do, it's still important to find ways for teens to safely get involved with programs in hobbies, away from screens you 12th trivia about how much honey will a single worker be produced in her lifetime?

  • 1/12 of a teaspoon one half a teaspoon, one ounce or £2.5 It's not a lot.

  • Experts estimate that a honey bee produces 1/12 of a teaspoon in her entire life at the park.

  • 2020 has been a strange year.

  • I mean, for honeybees.

  • What were you thinking?

  • It's not unusual for beekeepers to lose some of their colonies.

  • Pests and diseases can cause that sometimes the insects are malnourished.

  • Some colony losses have been blamed on pesticides.

  • The recent good news for honeybees is that colony losses from the winter of 2019 to 2020 where the second lowest on record, according to the Bee informed partnership.

  • The bad news is that colony losses from this summer where the highest that the partnership has recorded since it started tracking this in 2006.

  • Thes statistics air from the United States, which currently has less than half the bee colonies.

  • It did in 1950 but the number of colonies worldwide has increased by tens of million since then, so it's not as much of a concern globally, and there are multiple companies working to help bee populations.

  • Bees are responsible for pollinating one third of all crops worldwide, and populations are declining, impacting the nearly $20 billion they contribute to US crop production.

  • But the company be flow thinks they can give bees a boost with a special nutrient packed superfood formula they say improves their performance and immune system.

  • Some people say we're doing supervised.

  • We say we are developing strong on smart BCE feed the beast the formula, and they can work longer and in colder temperatures helpful for crops like these almond trees in California, which have short pollination windows very close from here.

  • We've done a trial where we see that our bees were doing seven times more flights under really cold temperatures.

  • With no automated way to monitor beat performance, The B flow team spends hours each day staring at trees counting bees.

  • We know how many visits a flower requires to develop a fruit off exercise.

  • So far, it's working in Argentina.

  • Their trials increase crop yields up to 90% and made fruit like these blueberries in Oregon 22% bigger at the moment be Flow knows it can't address every issue impacting bees.

  • So for now, their goal is to make what we already have better.

  • There's a lot of questions that are still waiting for answers on.

  • We think that this is just a start off our journey on pollination that has Bean underestimated by the agriculture industry.
