All right, here we go. Hello everyone. Welcome to today's live stream as I said in the comments, I got my second shot, so I was very sick. I got that yesterday. I was very sick yesterday today so I did not have time to prepare the topic and Leila recommended a topic so Leila I'll have to delay that topic till next week So today, I'll just do Q&A. You guys are free to ask me any questions. Don't worry about my health right now I am sick, but I will survive this live stream Let's see who is here Leila, what's up? Yeah, that was today's video. I just released that Excuse me, I might be coughing a little bit Sleepwalker really like to know more about you sleepwalker We really don't know much about you. So if you could tell us something About yourself, I'd be very interested So justina hello May hello May Okay, sleepwalker ask the question. Do you celebrate Halloween in your country? Well, excuse me Halloween is celebrated in Canada where I grew up. I used to dress up in costumes Monsters and things I would dress up and Go around in my neighborhood on Halloween and collect candy And with my brother and then we would fight about the candy or whatever so certainly Canada we celebrate Halloween, but I Don't know about Saudi Arabia or Indonesia or Malaysia or you other or Russia In Korea here, not really. They don't celebrate Halloween. It's not a kid's celebration in Korea. Mainly Young young adults will go to a party Dress up in party in Korea. So it's more of a young adult activity not a kid's activity But yeah, happy Halloween. Good question Sleepwalker tells me all your life. Everything is as usual. Well, we don't know Yeah, I got a Yeah, I got this this nice board today for you for your questions. I got this board So, yeah, let's put that in What's What's going on We don't need that this is sleepwalkers response Everything is as usual, but it's not all not all but it's it's also not bad Very vague. We have no idea about what is usual And what is not bad for your life You told us nothing sleepwalker. You told us nothing. I I can hear you big Joe. Hello and CBRK. Hello. Welcome. I'm just getting to your highs now Justina I hope you get better soon. Any guys do you guys get those questions in? Get rid of that. I'll go back to the main screen Love Kumar. Hello Honestly, do we don't celebrate Halloween, but recently some young people started celebrating. Okay, that's interesting It's a fun holiday It's a fun holiday, I think it's a good holiday Every country should celebrate. It's just for fun CB asks a question and let's let's put the focus on CB's question here. I want to increase this to 24 It's been a while since I used these tools Why is it a black? Background, I don't want black All right, I'll fix that later. Anyway, CB asks Why do students cheat during tests and exams? How do they cheat? Did you ever cheat should people go straight from school to university or do something different for Real-life experience. Okay, you got a lot of questions here already prepared. See you wonder is this is for your IELTS questions You're asking me to prepare for you Why do students why do students cheat during tests and exam? Well exams they didn't study. They're not prepared for the tests You know, they chose to do something else, how do they cheat well in in my school They usually have the small paper I caught that many times students with small paper writing notes on the paper and they sneaking the paper in I've caught that Did I did I ever cheat? No comment Should people go straight from school to university? I think so. I think so I think You could start university and then maybe after your first year then planted to take a trip But I think it's important to Go right to university University I've I'm I think the university is very important So I would encourage everyone to go to university straight from school At least for a year or two before if you want to travel just get it started You can take a break during all right. Let's see. What else we got here. I hope we got your questions CB I didn't answer really IELTS style Why is this? You know, let's see if we can get a new one Let's get it here. I don't know why it's highlighted I guess it's highlighting from You know, let's see if we can I gotta install this Maybe it's not a good we know It's already I think I fixed it. Okay Let's see if we got that. Yay. Okay. I fixed that. All right this question He looks more handsome with with slight beard. He looks more handsome with light beard Which do native which one do native speakers use? hmm Well a beard so everyone knows sometimes I have a beard that's when you grow the hair here That's a beard. We pronounce that beard And a slight beard, you know, you can have a long beard but a slight beard actually before this Before this live stream. I had a slight beard just a little beard, but I shaved Before the live stream He looks more handsome with a light beard Well slight and light are different and first of all, let's fix the grammar. So beard is a noun. It's uncountable is it I Guess that's countable. It's countable. Sorry if you have two people there's two beards But usually we're just talking about one person. Anyway, it's countable on one person and we should use the article ah So I'm gonna fix this right now and put that ah right there ah So he looks more handsome with a light beard. He looks more handsome with ah Fix that grammar right now Light beard, which are these do native speakers used we can use both now. There's a difference between Slight and light What is the difference? Slight means a little bit of a beard which I had a little bit of beard growing and light We'd talk about the color So is the beard dark or is the beard light my beard is Little bit dark. I guess you would I don't know. I don't remember. Yeah, I think slight beards are usually dark But when I grow a long beard, it's usually light So it's possible. He looks more handsome with a slight beard He looks more handsome with a light beard both are possible and you could say he looks more handsome With a slight and light beard So this is possible because slight talking about how how how much growth it is and light talking about the color All right, so you sleepwalker I'll get to your questions. Just be patient. I'm slow When should we use farther and further? I read there's a slight difference. I did too. I'm not gonna research this right now I researched it before I think Depending where you are UK or our USA or other countries I better I better take a quick look just so I don't As far as I know You can use both Because I had the uses in videos, right? So I had to check this Long ago Okay, so what is the difference? It's gonna be a difference between American and British Farther means a great distance Farther and further sometimes mean the same thing. I don't know which situations. I can't think of every situation. Sorry So farther is more focused on a distance and Further is Focused on extending a distance. So let's make a sentence You're Thailand is I'm in Korea. So Thailand is farther away from Korea and Japan right So in this case farther is more focused on the distance and Further if we walk Ten meters further We will see Waterfall, I don't know. All right, so Not always this is quick rules of just what I know in a quick check So farther and further often mean the same thing depends who's using it which country I don't know all the rules all the cases, but if you want a difference farther is gonna focus more on the distance And further is extend extending a certain distance. So in this case, we're gonna if you walk Ten meters more. So further We will see a waterfall. Okay. I hope that helps I'm gonna move on because these are very quick questions and answers Layla comes in with Nothing to nothing To write home about what does this expression mean if you don't mind? All right, so Let's make it a full sentence. It's nothing to write home about All right, if you hear this expression that means It is not interesting So this phrase means if something interesting happens in your life, you know in the old days You would write a letter and tell your mom at home You know if you're in another city or another country and something interesting happens to you You write a letter or postcard. Hey mom this happened to me. So something very exciting. So we have this expression It's nothing to write home about which means if something interesting happened to you or If something happened to you, but you don't think it's interesting You would say it's nothing to write home about and I'm gonna make a quick dialogue because this is a good one I don't know where you got that Layla, but it's you should know it So off the top of my head Let's see. I Heard You heard I heard you Bought a new phone Good for you Okay, so A says I heard you bought a new phone good for you and B says nothing to write home about you know It's just a phone. I don't you know, it's not that interesting. It's very common people get phones So it's just it's not so interesting So I'm telling a It's not interesting. You're kind of too excited about my new phone. Okay. I gotta move on I See a lot of questions coming in so I'll try to be quick. I'm sorry if my if my answers are very quick, but Deal with it Alright, this is from CBRK if you're going to attend a Halloween party, what kind of costume would you wear? The last time I went to a Halloween party would be about 10 years ago And it is a funny story because I went as a blind man so I had the blind blind man stick and I wore sunglasses and I went to the Halloween party as a blind man Because I was I was a blind man because that was the quickest costume I could make just sunglasses walking stick So I pretended to be blind But the funny thing is at the party Everyone didn't know that was a costume everyone thought I was actually blind I was actually blind person and everyone treated me with extra care and guiding me around places So that was the last time these days if I was to wear a costume I don't know what I haven't thought about that CB. I'm not really it's a fun holiday But I don't really wear costumes anymore Okay, Justina Says These days I interest about money someone says That instead follow money do something that you enjoy and then money will follow naturally Okay, I like this question. It's not about English. It's a life question. I I like life questions But let's let's fix up your grammar Justina I know I know you're just probably typing with your thumbs or keyboard very fast, but So people learn these days is a time expression. So I probably put a comma there And we should have a capital I and these days I interest we're going to use b verb Am and then interested I'm interested about money And usually we say I'm interested in you can say about but you could also say I'm interested in money interested in interested about someone says it instead of So let's learn interested in that's very common Interested in and instead of that's very common. So we're learning here Someone says that instead of following money Do something that you will enjoy And then let's say it's a long sentence here. So let's just Then money will follow naturally. Okay So these days I'm interested in money Someone says that instead of following money do something that you will enjoy then money will follow naturally and you continued part two Conversely, let's put a capital others say that if your goal is money, just do something that you can actively earn money Such as investment or business period What do you think? so two ideas Do something you enjoy Money will follow or Do something to make money as much as possible. Um Let's reduce this then Do something that you will enjoy then money will follow naturally I'm reducing this to just the heart of the Just do something that you could actually earn money such as investment or business. What do you think? I don't know. What do you guys think put a comment Do you think do something you enjoy and the money will follow or do you have to work hard to make money? Even if you're doing stuff that Money doesn't follow. I'm gonna agree with this sentiment Oh, that's a bad color. I'm gonna agree more with this It's very difficult for people to find work that they truly enjoy I think most people in the world including me, uh, we don't like the kind of work we do But we have to do it for money Uh, I don't I don't have confidence in this statement. So I think we all have to do something we don't want to do to make money Uh, lucky people might have this but I I don't not me All right. Uh, Mubasher Ali. Let's take a look Dear teacher Robin. I have a question for you. Please say what does hang out mean? Okay What does hang out mean could you explain it for me? Please say some sentences with that phrase no problem so Let's hang out That's what you're gonna say to your friend, uh, which hang out would mean spend time together So I'm gonna call my friend. Hey chat. Let's hang out. Let's I'm telling chat. Let's Spend some time together now. It's not a date You know, it's not for couples You can hang out with a man or woman, but it's not considered a date. It's just spending time, uh with friends So you hang out So what kind of things you do when you hang out? Anything or everything you can go to the restaurant go to a movie Uh, go over to their place. They can come over to your place and just Hang out Just spending time together with friends I hope, uh, Mubasher that answers Uh, Laila you you asked about this and YouTube is very sensitive about this topic So I can't talk about this topic. I'm sorry, Laila, uh, because youtube might do something to my video Oh, we got lots of questions So Robin is handsome whether with slight beard or without is it a correct sentence. All right Robin is handsome whether He has a slight beard Not the I you don't want to use the with or without so robbers have Get rid of this whether with or without. Uh, Robin is handsome with Robin is handsome. I gotta keep saying Robin is handsome Robin is handsome. I might start believing that Uh, Robin, this is interesting Robin is handsome whether with slight beard or without I like the with or without But I'm going to say whether He has a slight A slight beard or not I think this is more appropriate Safa, would you please have a lesson about suffix and prefix? Actually, that's a good idea Suffix prefix. I'll think about that so far Farida, hello CB. Whoa, CB. You got a lot of questions. Let's take a look What is something what is something that you think you should have been taught at school? To what is something very valuable that you were taught at school three? What is something you were taught that you would consider useless? What is something you think you should have been taught at school? I think uh In schools, they should teach us more about money Saving money investing money Right from elementary school how to manage money that should be taught in school So I wish that was taught to me, but you know schools don't really talk about money What is something very valuable that you were taught at school math? I appreciate uh the math that was taught to me because I use math daily Uh, I don't use advanced math, but I do know basic math and I'm very happy. I know that basic math And what is something you were taught that you consider useless? Um, hmm What was he use oh dance In school I had I took a dance class I had to take a dance class. He was mandatory Uh, that was useless. I learned all kinds of old dances that I'd never used again So that was useless that dance class That was a waste of time that was useless. I considered a waste of time I've heard native speakers. There's nothing to write home about. Okay I'm obash or you've got a question that I love here. It's a travel question. Dear teacher robin Have you ever been to bang the dash? Do you like bang the dash? This is a question. So let's fix that And why do you like bang the dash? Have you ever been to bang the dash? Yes, I have I've been to bang the dash. So that's a yes Do you like bang the dash? um I like bang the dash it is a very interesting place To visit But I don't think I would like to live there because there's a lot of people And there was a lot of air pollution and a lot of things didn't look very safe. So I think I would be hurt Crossing the road or something so I enjoyed my time in bang the dash, but If I had to stay years in bang the dash, I don't think I would like it that much. I don't know. I don't know But I enjoyed my trip there a short trip there. So yeah So I'm obash or yeah, I've been to bang the dash Maybe this year costumes from squid game will be most popular and yeah, you're right uh sleepwalker Squid game costumes are very popular especially in south korea and actually protesting in south korea When people are protesting the government In soul they're wearing the squid game costumes when they're protesting Do you attend any halloween parties currently? No All right tikka. Let's get tikka's question I don't go to halloween parties Especially kovat. There's no halloween parties Could you tikka ask could you please explain this outrightly rejected? I don't really understand I was studying about translation the topic about taxation. I don't get this point of this. All right Now I think If we made a sentence he was This outrightly means kind of suddenly and immediately we want to emphasize it's used to emphasize rejected Rejected so out outrightly means very directly He was rejected so if if I asked Can I borrow? Can I borrow five dollars? No So very quickly very suddenly rejected so That's all I can give you without more context tikka, but this outrightly is very direct sudden Rejected we want to emphasize the rejected sleepwalker Sleepwalker impact effect and influence. Ah, that's a difficult sleepwalker. Please make I'm sick make me Don't make it too difficult and you're asking about three words I wonder what is the difference between these three words and sleepwalker? This is a question I would need more time to prepare But I'll quickly in 30 seconds or less less impact effect influence They're similar this impact is stronger. I would need more research sorry sleepwalker If you bring me sentences sleepwalker you do have to work and then I can help you Obasher When do you got up? All right, so when do you get up we got to use We don't use uh, we don't use past tense For routine. So when you ask when do you get up daily? This daily means it's a routine So we just use present Simple verbs or the we don't change. We don't modify the verb to pastor future When do you get up daily?  These during covid Do you exercise daily? So here you didn't put past tense good Yes, I try to walk daily one or two hours daily Layla does I'm kind of coming down with a headache mean I kind of feel a headache I'm kind of coming down with a headache So that means a headache is starting you're starting to get a headache So another one I'm Maybe if you're sick, I'm kind of coming.

I didn't do my laundry For four days Oh No, no, we're not using a go Four days have passed since I did my laundry. I didn't do my laundry for four days. Both of those are correct what you had I didn't do my laundry four days ago. No, no That should be for four days And both of them are used by native speakers CB I'm not interested in in celebrities CB Do you have a bucket list? I don't have a bucket. Just you know CB. I like to travel. So Yeah, I have some countries on the bucket list Lots of countries maybe a hundred countries on my bucket list What was this sleepwalker the weather affects. Oh, yeah sleepwalker. Don't be a good student today So this weather affects me badly So in this case, we would want to use effect. We don't want to use impact or influence effect seems more uh appropriate here This group influences I would use influences here The minds of students we influence minds Usually we influence minds. So I'd use influence here. So effect here influence here This character influenced me. Yeah So influenced me changed my behavior The solar eclipsed influenced people. Yeah, we would use influence changed their behavior Yeah Now You could use influence here, but effects just seems a better match here The weather affects weather affects is more common. We don't usually say the weird weather influence You could say the weather influenced my decision something like that you influence the mind Again, I would have to check very quickly here. So very quickly from the internet Here, let's let's uh Let's make this a little smaller All right, when you affect something it means that you have made it change Conversely, when you influence something it means that you have altered its behavior Things without behavior such as rocks cannot be influenced. Okay, so Yeah, we can influence behavior and minds people and effect You made something change Uh, again, we probably need to look at a few more examples to get that All right, you you you got a lot of questions Whoo, so many questions today Okay, cb, I'm gonna pass Your questions there Layla, I heard this following sentence while watching movie it got under my skin so That's an idiom It doesn't mean something is getting under your skin. It just means something bothers you. Something is irritating you Well basher How can I find some native speaker? A million people ask me that ask me that every day. I need some american canadian teenagers for speaking I'm from engladesh We are friendly why american American Don't expect friendly people. That's a question why they don't help. Well, I know one reason Very often Students around the world. They you know, I get messages on whatsapp every day Students say to me. Hey robin.  That's not a that's not a friendship. That means they're saying to me. Hey robin I don't I I'm not really your friend. I'm just using you to practice english. That's not a friendship, right? Friendship is give and take but when people say I'd like to be your friend so I can practice english That's not a friendship to me and that just means I'm going to spend a lot of my time to make your life better How do you how are you a friend to me? So Yeah, bangladesh people are friendly, but if your strategy is I want to be your friend so I can practice english. That's not a good strategy You've got to you've got to offer something you have to be a reason To be a friend So join a club Where english is not the topic I don't know. This is a difficult thing for millions of people around the world. They can't find a native speaker It's very difficult. I know I know but I don't have an easy solution to this problem right now Just if you do talk to a native speaker I don't have an easy solution to this problem right now Just If you do talk to a Native speaker, don't say I want to be your friend So I can improve my english That's not how you build a friendship Does technology ever let you down daily? It lets me down You know, my phone lets me down and already always runs out of power It gets slow I don't like technology. Oh, do we She is the the blank student in the class which one is which one To correct is the correct answer Uh cleverest or most clever all right, so You want to use the superlative In this blank. Let's make it a real blank And I would say both are okay Let's see if there is an actual rule Yeah, so I'm right For once both are okay. So some superlatives These are superlatives If if you guys don't know we we start with the adjective clever and then We have a comparative two things which can be more clever, I guess or Clever maybe more clever might be possible and then you have a superlative cleverest or most clever Both are acceptable, you know in English there are some words We can use both styles and clever is one of them. Okay. I hope that helps you out Would you like to live in in the countryside when you retire in the future? When you retire in the future? Uh, nope. I don't want to live. Oh You got a big spelling mistake there Would you like to live in the countryside when you retire? No, uh, I'm more of a city guy When you went to Korea, did you plan to stay there for a long time or plan to work for a while sleepwalker? When I came to Korea, I plan to stay one year Here I am 22 years later, but my original plan I'll stay one year go back to canada But the problem is I stayed one year My first job and then the next year I got a better job and then the next year I got a better job and the next year I got a better job and my life just Kept getting better and better and better still getting better.

There is no limit to What she can achieve and there's no limit to is expression There's no limit to what she can achieve in the future.  Wow. I haven't seen these many questions in a long time Why most of Europeans know English well, I met online a friend from Croatia and English is so great I was likely wash he was English is her native language Well, you got to understand that Europeans and Asians study English in a very very different ways Europeans are more natural They they read well English books. They watch English media when they're kids So they do it in a more natural way Whereas in Asians, they just study the language Europeans They do study it a little bit, but Europeans acquire it And I would say Asians, you know, wherever you are in Asia, you're studying English probably the wrong way Whereas Europeans they're doing it the correct way. They're they're acquiring the language from a young age So I haven't met her but that's what I would say just Europeans are More willing to acquire the language when their kids start reading and watching movies using only English Justina What's your definition of success, which do you think is more important for people to become successful hard work or opportunities? Uh Two C's there So for me, you know, it's hard to define success, but I would say accomplishments Is a starting point which would mean what is an accomplishment? You planned something and then you achieved it. You got it. You had a goal and you got it Doesn't matter the size of that goal.  I would say that person is successful Uh, I like to talk to people like that where they plan something they worked worked hard and they got it It makes me so happy and if I did that I'm happy and if other people do that, I'm very happy You know, we we did it So that would be uh more I guess on the hard work people plan they do the hard work They make their opportunities. They don't wait for opportunities. They make their opportunities Sleepwalker, I don't know when to use impacts or a sleepwalker.

So I'm very happy to help you at any time Jose Gonzalez gave some advice We can practice with other non native English speakers too. It doesn't mean it it it'll help Us less it is always helpful to get our English out. Yes I agree. You don't always have to talk to native speakers Popping music. Hello Okay, I'm just scanning down Tika, what does she have here? Last question Robert when I'm studying about translation. I usually translate it into the equivalents Instead of the meaning of its English. What do you think of this message? Uh translation should translate the meaning focus on the meaning Uh, Koreans tend to translate the words exactly Uh I think good translation translates the meat the focus is on the meaning not translating each word perfectly so Uh, I I I'm not I'm not a professional translator. I've never had any training but just from my experience I don't like people who translate the words. I like people who You translate the meaning All right. Thank you everyone. All right.

Okay, so I'll see you guys Next week What are you gonna make the yet next live is every sunday? All right. Thank you guys


So, we were here last time we were trying to estimate this sum which we used the Cauchy Maclaurin formula to estimate to be this. This we treat as error term and we estimated the error to be this bounded by this quantity. So, what we can do is therefore, we can write this this sum to be equal to this minus this plus this and this is also sort of error term in the sense that 1 over z plus 1 1 over z plus n this also 1 over z plus 1 1 over z plus n. So, that is like where are we log plus order and that is what we put as error term. Now, going back to this original estimate you remember what we were trying to actually do is to estimate gamma prime over gamma where z is in this interval and we derived that in this interval gamma prime over gamma and absolute value is bounded by absolute value this quantity and this we just now estimated almost we estimated this by that quantity. So, therefore, this is equal this is bounded by order 1 plus order 1 over z plus n plus log of z plus put this in absolute value you agree with this is the first sum inside the absolute sign is bounded by this plus a little bit more that is how that sort of absolute sign that is bounded by this and the last one sum over n of 1 over n is about log of capital N plus this Euler's constant which is order 1 to that goes out it is important to keep the signs here because as we will soon see this is order 1 plus order we just take these two we get log 1 plus z over n. So, therefore, that value of gamma prime z now we can come to this that is limit capital N going to infinity of log of right and what is this as n goes to infinity this vanishes this also vanishes and what we are left with is plus order now z plus 1 in absolute value is certainly bigger than 1 right for the z that we are interested in right now. So, this is all order let me just mention this for z in the interval minus u plus a there we have it a very nice bound on gamma prime over gamma now if you go all the way back what were you trying to do we are trying to calculate the integral along this line and what was inside the integral zeta prime over zeta. So, let us just go back and recall whatever we have left behind and we have already seen that zeta prime over zeta in absolute value is bounded by what quantity we use that functional equation for zeta do you remember I will have to pull that out then plus right plus order 1 this is what we had using the functional equation taking the log differentiating and model taking modulus everywhere you get this. Now, for again z in this interval what we observed was that zeta prime 1 minus z over zeta 1 minus z is order 1 why because 1 minus z is as a very large real part and zeta prime as well as zeta on very z which has a large real part converges to some value which is bounded by a constant. So, that is taken care of what about gamma prime of 1 minus z by 2 or gamma 1 by 1 minus z by 2 again this will have a very large real part, but this is gamma prime over gamma we do not really have an estimate here except that we can just invoke this just obtain this bound right and this part is valid if you recall for all z which are which do not lie on the negative real axis for all other z this equation is valid. So, in particular for 1 minus z by 2 will certainly not be lying on the negative real axis when z real part of z is negative. So, is real actually there on the positive side. So, we can just throw this bound at it and now again real part of z is very large is actually something like u right u plus 1 by 2 actually 1 minus real part of 1 minus z by 2. So, again this will go vanish away this will be order 1.  Now, if you recall this log of absolute value of log z is what z is if you write in polar coordinate is like r times e to the i theta varies between minus pi to plus pi is not never equal to for the z of interest is never equal to minus pi somewhere. So, the absolute value of log z would be log r plus log square r plus theta square and the whole school square. Now, theta is a constant and whenever log of we are taking log of z theta is a constant when if we are taking theta of log of h of z for some function h then theta may not be a constant because that really depends on how much rotations does h give to z. But if it is a z or 1 plus z by 2 they do not give any rotation these are linear shifts. So, this is essentially therefore, either in either case we can write this as order log z and then the when we try to bond this we get less than equal to integral zeta prime over zeta is bounded by order log of z x to the z in absolute value is bounded by is actually exactly x to the minus u absolute value of x to the z. And absolute value of z is at least u. So, since it is in denominator we stick that u there this and this is equal to again now this everything is simple. In fact, absolute value of z we can put an upper bound which is square root of u square plus r square and then take everything out the integral is just 2 i r.  Remember x is bigger than 1 right x is x was the number of x was that number. So, that we want to count prime numbers less than equal to x is always going to be bigger than 1. So, x to the u sitting in the denominator u sitting in the denominator in the numerator is only log u. So, that is good now this takes care of this integral now we took at this well these 2 are cousins. So, if we take care of 1 we will take care of the other because this really is symmetric. So, we have to take care of this now let me go back and draw this because this is where the fun begins. So, this is the domain of that we have and let us mark out now and this is c. C if you recall was 1 plus 1 by which is less than 2 right. So, the integral here is starting from here it is from c which is a number slightly bigger than 1 going all the way to minus u and stays the imaginary part stays at higher. Now, as we traverse around here and remember keep in mind the what we are integrating we are integrating zeta prime over zeta times x to the z over z. So, as we traverse on this side x to the z over z is very well behaved, but zeta prime over zeta is not at all well behaved because there may be lots of zeros sitting here right. So, we need to not only avoid those zeros, but also we need to worry about even if we can avoid the zeros zeta prime over not the zeros these are poles sorry not only need to avoid the poles. We also need to make sure that the path we take as zeta prime over zeta does not become too big because if it becomes too big then we cannot make the error term small. On the other hand once we are cross this boundary and we are on this side we know there are no poles and actually we know we are far away from any other pole because the remaining poles are here. So, these are just good reason for us to integrate and further can be may be a little unsure about this part because there may be a pole very close by and by the time we have come here we are still not right if we have still not got rid of the effects of that pole. So, what we will do is we will split this integral into two parts one is from here to here C 2 minus 1 and second part is minus 1 to minus this 1 be this will be easy to handle. In fact, I will handle it in 2 minutes using the tools we already developed this will be not so easy to handle. So, we will then want to handle this one. So, what about this one?  If real part of z is less than equal to minus 1 what about the real part of 1 minus z we are at this equation real part of 1 minus z is going to be greater than equal to 2. And when it is greater than equal to 2 well zeta prime of 1 minus z over zeta of 1 minus z is bounded that we know anything above 1 is bounded. So, for 2 it is surely bound. So, this goes away. So, we therefore, move in to this part zeta prime over zeta is bounded by this sum this plus this plus what about now what about gamma prime over gamma will be already derived an expression for gamma prime over gamma that is valid here the only invalid part was when negative real axis that is valid here. So, we can just throw this in and we still get order log of absolute values z right. So, doing all this we get this is order log of absolute value of z what is absolute value of x to the z this we cannot say it because it is now the real part absolute value of x to the z is x to the real part that is varying from minus 1 to minus u. So, x is in the denominator therefore, x to the z is in the denominator and we can always substitute with the smallest possible value where the denominator take which is x. So, let us just do that and again absolute value of z the smallest is r again again absolute value of z the largest value of this is square root of r square plus like. So, we just take that in and this is going from minus 1 to minus u I cannot afford to do that. So, I have to 1 over r is fine, but I cannot afford to have replace x to the z by x because then this is going to diverge. So, what I am going to do is keep that x to the real part of z and this is less than equal to log of absolute value of z as I already said it is we can bounded by order log of r square plus u square divided by r and then we have integral. Now, in the integral now the only thing survives is x to the real part of z. So, we are essentially integrating over a real quantity because we are moving from here to only real part changes. So, in these are also you only move the real part. So, basically this is 1 over x to the t dt and what is this integral this is simple to estimate integral of this is going to be still not good enough because this integral is going to be probably is that is e to the minus t log x and integral of that is going to be for minus t equals minus 1 t equals 1 is 1 over x log x and that is what worries me. So, if as u goes to infinity this vanishes what this diverges. So, I made a mistake somewhere this is fine maybe I should not have replace this absolute value of z by r we will never send r to infinity we will at some point, but only for a short while we will actually be setting r to be in square root of x. Now, we do not want to find the integral on the whole line see no if you recall for any value of r we had if this integral related to psi of x with some error term and our target is always going to be to minimize error term. So, we will choose that value of r which minimizes error term and as we will see later on that that value of r will come to about square root of x, but that is a story for future how do we end this story zeta prime over zeta is bounded by order log that seems like a pretty reasonable conclusion. So, how do we take care of this I think clearly my bounds have been oversimplification. So, one needs to find a slightly better way of handling it maybe I should do that instead of in fact, even in log mod z I should just replace it by log of root of r square plus t square and then do the integrals. So, let us just go ahead and do that. So, I do not want to end up here.  Now, how do you integrate this can one find some easy estimates I think so see what we can say is surely this is order 1 to u and notice that log of this quantity is upper bounded by this quantity to the epsilon for any small epsilon and there is some constant multiplier that gets absorbed in this order. So, we replace or this by this upper bound which then gets absorbed in here. So, we get dt over x to the t r square plus t square half minus epsilon now integrate this how do we integrate this all we can try many things because it is again we just have to worry about some upper bound to this do not have to worry about exactly evaluating this integral. So, what would be a good way suppose we throw away r square here this is still remains an upper bound and then t square becomes t to the t square to the half minus epsilon becomes t to the 1 minus epsilon. So, t to the 1 minus epsilon divide by x to the t if you integrate what do you get let me say or let me keep r square that might be useful later on. So, if you integrate this by parts let us say t square equals u I can do that r square plus u, but then this becomes there is a square root u also which logs in some way and this becomes x to the square root u that is now that is becomes. So, yes of course, throw away t square t is always greater than 1. So, if you throw away t square from this denominator here you are always going to get an upper bound and now this is an integral that is like 1 by log x x to the t r to the 1 minus epsilon when t is 1 you get 1 by x log x r to the 1 minus epsilon and when x is u you get 1 by log x r to the 1 minus epsilon. And so, this is always 1 plus x log x right anyway this will go to 0 and good. So, that gives us a good estimate of this integral this part of the integral which is also same as this part of the integral. So, it is no difference. So, what is left is the messy one how do we get this estimate because in here that whatever we are trying to do using this equation it does not work anymore because the key thing here is that we cannot get rid of this quantity we know how to handle these two these are well behaved in that region as well. So, we can again plug in log z for these two. But this is not well behaved when real z is less than negative 1 real part of this is less than 2 well for a while you can still come up to you can still keep this bounded, but as real z becomes greater than 0 you do not really have any control over. And therefore, we need to we can only express this quantity in terms of some order log z times plus this quantity. But that really gives us nothing because you want to get bound on zeta prime over zeta you get it in terms of another zeta prime over zeta. So, it is not useful. Therefore, we seems that we cannot use this functional equation to bound zeta prime over zeta in the region of interest for us which is unfortunate because we spend a lot of time in trying to understand this. But you have to work with what you are given you cannot use it. So, you cannot use it. So, we have to use something else. So, what is that something else? So, let me first write we cannot use the functional equation. So, as I said we use something else and that something else fortunately is not something totally new we can again reuse the tools we have developed. But we have to approach it slightly differently and the approach we are going to adopt is define another function which we call xi. So, the definition of xi is quite simple if you look familiar to you also if you recall this the last three quantities in this product occur in the functional equation. In fact, xi is motivated from the functional equation. If you further if you recall that that we had pi to the minus z by 2 gamma z by 2 zeta z to be 1 over z times z minus 1 really have to remember what it was plus I mean there is a minus here there was a 1 to infinity t to the z by 2 plus t to the 1 minus z by 2 that is really long term when we were trying to prove that or trying to analytically extend the zeta function over the entire complex plane. So, this is the equation we use to extend the zeta function is this was this equation oh yes d t by t that is something I missed and was assigned plus good. So, this is what we had. So, therefore xi of z is 1 plus. So, let us spend a couple of minutes on understanding xi of z first is it defined over the entire complex plane. Yes, may be except for some may be some poles it is defined over entire complex plane because zeta z is defined over the entire complex plane except for 1 pole gamma z by 2 is defined over the entire complex plane except for those infinitely many poles and this is of course, these are defined over entire. So, xi z is defined over entire complex plane is meromorphic function. So, it may have some poles. So, are there some poles of xi appears where are they is z equals 1 a pole which is a pole of zeta z no why not that z minus 1 takes care of it is any of the negative integers a negative even integers a pole minus 2 is minus 2 a pole for example, no true because that is already taken over care of by 0 of zeta function at minus 2. So, that only leaves out 0 z equals 0 is z equals 0 a pole because that is where this is bounded, but this is unbounded no because that z is taking care of it and these poles are all order 1. So, actually we can therefore, conclude xi is an entire function in fact that was the reason of multiplying out this with z and z minus 1 to take care of the remaining poles xi is an entire function which is very good.  So, as I said we are not be bothered about the second observation, but the first one is going to be important because we know about entire functions. What we know about entire functions is that we can write the entire function in terms of their zeros. So, we will have to worry about where the zeros of xi are. So, that is another third part of the observation where are the zeros of xi gamma has no zeros we already know. So, the potential zeros of xi are z equals 0 that is not a 0 because there is a pole which cancel out z equals 1 not a 0 pole cancel out zeros of gamma trivial zeros of gamma sorry trivial zeros of zeta not zeros because they cancel out with the poles of gamma. So, the only zeros of xi are precisely the non-trivial zeros of zeta and that is that and on those any of the non-trivial zeros these are all quantities which are bounded and therefore that remains 0. So, now you see the usefulness of xi it is entire function. So, we can use that product formula to write xi and in that formula all the non-trivial zeros of zeta will occur. These are the zeros that we are worried about because these zeros give rise to those poles of zeta prime over zeta that we need to avoid in order to bound the integral. So, now we will study xi to derive some facts about those non-trivial zeros of zeta. So, that is going to be our next task. So, we are done for the day.

I very rarely have ever met a Christian who prayed daily, devoted themselves to the word and lived in spiritual bondage. I've never met that kind of Christian. I've never met a Christian who was spiritually defeated and was a prayer warrior and was in the Word. Sure they went through troubling times, but inwardly they had peace, they had joy, they had love. They had this stability about them that caused them to approach life with a faith and a hope that caused them to be victorious even in the midst of the struggle.


This little tiny glass. He'll brings a lot of money into the state of Maine. $20 million dollars. Yes $3,000-4,000 Gold rush of Maine What is up guys? Joe Holland here. It is before 3am in the morning I got a wipe the sleep out of my eyes I am head to the coast to see about how to catch and everything you need to know about Elvers what's an Elver you're gonna find out. Oh, there goes a fox It's been a little while since I've been on the road before 3 a.m We're gonna head to where fresh and salt water meets to meet up with my buddy Abnan Who's gonna teach us all we need to know about Elvers Abnan is all set up on a retaining wall On a freshwater river that meets salt water. So he's fishing a high tide He has an aluminum polled net a foam pad to sit on and a bucket for the glass eels that he catches Near the water He has a propane lantern to attract the glass eels and Elvers The eels come in from the ocean towards the fresh water on the high tide and Abnan Blindly swings his net to scoop and catch them as they come up the river The American eel is unique because it's the only Caterdromis fish in North America meaning it lives mostly in fresh water But returns to the ocean to spawn as opposed to anadromis species That live in salt water and travel to freshwater to spawn Adult eels may live in fresh water from 8 to 25 years before returning to the ocean to spawn They leave their fresh water growing areas in the fall and migrate to the Sargasso sea and spawn during the late winter The Sargasso sea is a large area of the western North Atlantic Located east of the Bahamas and south of Bermuda is actually just an area of the North Atlantic That's full of a Sargasso, which is a kind of seaweed that floats in the ocean rather than existing close to land For the American eel the Sargasso sea is where the life cycle begins and ends After spawning the adult eel dies the eggs hatch after several days and develop into a larva stage The larvae drift in the ocean for several months and then enter the Gulf Stream current to be carried north towards The North American continent as they approach the continental shelf the larvae Transform into miniature transparent eels called glass eels as glass eels leave the open ocean To enter estuaries and ascend rivers. They are known as Elvers This migration occurs in late winter and early spring and throughout the summer months Some Elvers remain in brackish waters while others ascend rivers far inland Fisheries for yellow and silver eels have a long history in Maine Having occurred since the earliest colonial settlements. The Elver fishery is relatively recent having begun in the early 1970s until 1978 and then started again in the early 1990s The fishery was non-existent from 1979 to the early 1990s due to a collapse in market demand for Elvers In recent years market demand has increased dramatically Elvers are highly valued in the Far East Japan China Taiwan and Korea where they are cultured and reared to adult size for the food fish market Due to recent intense market demand Elvers have now become the most valuable marine resource in terms of price per pound reaching over $2,000 per pound the fishing season for Elvers in Maine runs from March 22nd through June 7th Although the fishery may be closed earlier if Maine's quota is met harvest methods are restricted to hand-dip nets Like Abden is using or fight nets the Department of Marine Resources Has renewed a lottery for permits, but they are capped at 425 licenses Yeah, it's pretty fascinating thing South Carolina is the only other place that they harvest them and the only harvest aquaculture quota It's the only state in the country that have some like this commercially It's been a fight to keep it A lot of the other states haven't done the work that Maine has to keep the fishery So they're pretty jealous. I mean it's a short season, it's 11 weeks It creates 20 million dollars worth of revenue for the fishermen. Wow Last year last year. I think the season was done Middle to the end of April only like five weeks. Oh It's quota-based. Yeah, it's quota-based. I I'm only allowed so many The state of Maine is allowed to have us at least nine hundred and ninety six hundred and thirty seven pounds 2012-2013 is harvesting somewhere around 18,000 pounds. Wow so They've tried like crazy to cut us back to nothing, but they've cut us back 50% of what we was catching It's all the Atlantic states the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission is what regulates a lot of this stuff and It's all the whole 13 states along the Eastern seaboard they make up these rules The same thing with pogeys, stripers everything flounder Herring I've been down to Oh, yeah, I think I go I think I saw Oh, yeah Oh another one You got them That's cool Yeah, it's fun when you see you'll see four or five six women right by your light great steady No, are they all coming from the ocean Yep, yep All the way from the Bermuda Triangle Holy Shoe In the Sargasso sea All the adults will go down there from here and all over spawn and the babies come back The crazy thing about these are they're not a river specific species so you could get 10,000 pounds you can get 2,000 pounds and all depends on the fresh water content That's what they seek out is the fresh water.  It wasn't very many people doing it. There was, you know, just a handful I Get started in 91 When the big boom really hit and they went to like $400 a pound It was like 2,000 2200 people that had licenses at that time. Well back when I started all you needed was a commercial fishing license And then a few years after that it created the overall license Anybody could still buy one Something like that, but they put the moratorium on But they've dropped off this cold weather just fetched them right out Right there again, too. So it's really really early and I could have caught just what was here They've been laying here wait for the water temperature to get to a What they like Because they dropped right off last night. I only had a half a pound They're pretty pretty slow tonight, too The temperature makes a big difference. They don't like moving in this cold cold water If it was 50 degrees during the day, they would be all over the place Now I see that cell here. Does that have anything to do with these? Yep Yeah, I said it so it was close so she could get to it easy And they'll go in and get stuck in there. Yeah.  It was around 2200 a pound and close to a buck a piece for those right there right now there. Yeah, probably 80 cents 80 cents 90 cents That piece takes a lot of them to make up a pound That's why they a lot of times they only move at night Because anything and everything wants to eat them. Mm-hmm. It doesn't take much to eat them either doesn't know Oh my god Was there no quota then or there was no quota then Yeah, I was back then I was I didn't chase them like a lot of guys did love guys go all the way to Bangor Machias and places like that Chase them up the coast because as they come up they'll come into these rivers at different times. Mm-hmm something guys would chase them all season Hey predominantly just stayed around here city a fish Over in the sheep's gut because you could leave here at high tide go over there and still fish for another hour and a half Two hours because the tide's so late up there. Mm-hmm fish over there and get another pound pound and a half A lot of guys used to go to New Jersey and Massachusetts Back when there was no quota and there wasn't really it was the Wild West It's the start early you go down there and chase them up through I had a place in one year we didn't have our you chased them up to Bangor and Had a place that I sat Is it right where the old fish ladder was right across from the hospital power plant there? One day we took a book took a boat up because it was the easiest way to get to a lot of places because the the There's a long ways through the woods to get to the river and the road And I had a wall like this And I turned my light on and there was a band of them about two feet wide It was just nothing but eels three hundred yards. Oh my god. Oh and that wall right down through I get like six pounds in like two hours Oh, yeah, it's getting a little better than starting to move Do you get much for like competition not not now it used to be a little bit years ago A lot of guys or that was another thing we did too is you was allowed to Switch at the beginning of the year whether you wanted a pike net or a dip net because pre 2016 or so Whatever you've ever always fished with that's all you was allowed to have. Okay, you know some guys would have before 2012 you was allowed as many nets as you wanted. Wow And They dropped you down five naps and then they went If you had fished five fight naps you could fish up to two fight naps And then it was switched to a dip net and a fight net if you wanted to fish it Or if you just had a dip net and that's all you ever fished with that's all you was allowed but now we redid it so You can have whatever you want at the beginning of the season and but you're stuck with it I've always dipped I always loved different my wife wound up switching to a fight net She doesn't want to be down here all hours of the night She's good at it too. Yeah, you're real good at it. But yeah, no I've had this spot for a long time Once in a while you'll have it's not now but in fact years ago I used to have People come down and try to get this spot at the beginning of the season They get a couple of people that I fish with they get small quarters. So they come down They fish with me down here. They'll fish out on that front wall There was one girl called her quarter and two nights.  Yeah passing parties. Yeah, they all got different quotas my population Now does she have a smaller quota because she hasn't done it? Yeah, she she wasn't as aggressive as I was. Yeah Hey, she was false, but You know she said What's the most somebody has There was one guy. I don't I think he's still alive. He's got 150 pound quota. Oh my god. Yeah a lot of guys most Most fishermen get anyways from 10 to 25 pounds And you've got a handful it's got over 40 pounds 40 50 pounds and you've got a I guess two or three guys in the state that have over 100 pounds. Oh my god. Yeah So when they go it goes back to the fishermen for the most part and then new permits When they yeah, okay if one of those guys passed away Um That new uh, that new permit would get four pounds of that and the rest goes back to the rest of the fishermen.  Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah guys lugging guns Oh, it was cash. It was all cash sales back then. Yeah, you know some of the dealers Had one guy that was set up right in the earth and packing off for a long time Nothing to be sitting there with $100,000 We produced roughly around 1.5 to 2.2 million dollars with the clams out of here a year About a about a million dollars worth of alvers come out of here a year too. Wow Yeah, so this river is oh it produces a lot of product. Wow. I had no idea produced that much. Yep Because we got lobster on the bottom end on the lower end Probably that's probably in the millions We had a lot of fishermen from all over the fish on the lower end the fish out of friendship But they'll come up into here So how far from the actual ocean are we right now? Like the last inlet or whatever From here down is probably three miles to the girls and it opens up to like a hungry island You got hungry island bring them long island You know Oh past louds out of louds island outside of round pond That's all open ocean out beyond that It's pretty amazing that these elders like pick this river Yeah, it's a lot like I said it's a lot to do with water Water the fresh water content It's like in the Kenneback and in the Penobscot That's a huge drawing for them because there's a lot of fresh water comes down through That attracts a lot of eels. Oh my god. The Kenneback must be loaded. Yep The Penobscot's really big You know it'll produce hundreds of thousands of pounds In the last few years everyone's done pretty well Yeah, so they haven't even bothered to fish because they get there late Because that's so much further further away from the ocean. Oh, I see. Yeah And uh Yeah, they'll be they'll be towards the end of the season before they get up there in the Middle of May the end of May 1st of june So they haven't even been ever been fished on at all for a couple of years two or three years Everyone's already had their quota by then do you guys have a uh a size limit on your net? No, no, it's just whatever the fight nets though They can't be any Longer than 30 feet from the caught end of the wingtip. Okay. And this is just whatever you feel comfortable swinging. What if you can swing? Yeah, we're guys getting crazy back in the day. Oh, yeah, I've had bigger nets than this I had one that was over two feet across. Geez. I just too much This size here is about perfect. Yeah, a lot of people won't even swing this size. They get the regular net That's about this big.  This used to be awesome catching that many but Now do they have like big days in a in a nut in a nap too? They can yeah, I've seen I've seen it where I've seen videos like that in the union river A few years ago the guy dipped Dumped his net and it's two five gallon buckets full of them. Hmm. I see talking 80 pounds that Seen two thousand dollars a pound. Wow That's like the wind in the lottery What's that? That's like wind in the lottery. Oh, yeah.  There was nothing but eels. There was no water in the bucket at all. Oh my god Yeah, I'm talking about 160 thousand dollars set one night He could have sold them all. Yeah, that's the one thing we've been pushing for the amount to do is You know these eels got to take a lot of a lot of work to get up into the fresh water The guys would like what they'd really like to do is if they get done they get a big mass like that It's put them up above. Yeah, give them a chance to get up there You know almost like a stalking Stalking program they do it with our lives State comes in they'll have a bunch of our lives live and take them up to a lake and put them in it You know, it's a hopefully they'll work their way back down You know go up and spawn and work their way back down Will they let will they do that or no? We've been fighting with them to try to get them to do it They've really been pretty apprehensive about it, which I don't understand why but I don't think they have the staff to monitor it They're competing competing product for the for the same food Anything in the water they uh, they're feeding on just like clams Going right down probably no sympathy though. There's probably 30 dollars worth of eels there I wish they could have a really good dip like it was Few nights ago. Hey, you never know When there was there'd be 200 300 eels 400 eels in there. No kidding So those buyers are the buyers set up for like everyday buying. Well, what they'll do is the buyers will Usually when they get 100 kilos, so that's when they'll ship out They'll send out 100 boxes and there's a kilo in each box 2.2 pounds Well, do they ship them dry? No, no they put them here and put the oxygen to them. Okay. Yeah Like in water? Yeah. Okay. Yeah Just like you would if you're just getting smelts and stuff like that. Oh, I see. Yeah Put them in a bag put some water in there They fly them over? What's that? Do they fly them over? Yeah. Yeah It's another thing people don't realize too is the reason why they want them at this size There's a an eel that's already formed a mouth and stuff like that Will not live in captivity. No kidding. They'll sign us up for that. I did not. Yeah, you get up The sushi smokey eel and all that. Oh, yeah, six billion dollar a year industry. Six billion. Yes Me he's got the only aquaculture farm in the country No kidding. Great in Walderboro. I didn't know that. Where's that? Right at the Industrial park. Oh like the old uh, where they had a shed factory. Yeah, where they were doing the shed Yep, just just just across the tracks from there. Yeah. Oh, that's good, right? Yep Just 50 60 people running around every trying to set the nets where they wanted them. It's crazy. Oh, yeah, it was like the wild west it was It was fun back then, but yeah, it was pretty unnerving and I had people were on edge all the time people getting robbed Oh, yeah stealing other people's eels.  Yeah Wow. Yeah, it was the wild west for sure. Holy cow. Yeah Yeah, not like that anymore. No, no, I can see it's not like that anymore No, I said it's me and uh, a couple other people at fish. They get small quotas They'll come down the first of the year and they'll set right there Oh, I guess there is somebody still up there. Yeah, that's probably Jamie just walking around Probably cleaning his eels. Yeah But uh, you know, Jamie'll fish there a little richie leaven cello fishes up there and mica fishes up there That's about it. Now this place used to have 25 30 guys up through here. Wow. Yep. Do you think the quota system helped it or? Well, I think switching being able to switch to fight net But before the all those guys that were here were all dip netters. Yeah, that's all they were allowed to do Oh, okay. So yeah Switching so you can have either off at the beginning of the season Changed a lot of a lot of the guys are older. Yeah back when I started I was in my 20s. Yeah, I'm over 50 now So do you think you'll switch it ever switch over? No, no, I love doing this. Nice. I would have to be something drastic for me to switch Yeah I love doing this. I love being out at night doing this pretty peaceful. It's pretty amazing. Yeah, very peaceful It gets rocky until then and it gets soft Yeah, it's on this side of it though. It's I'll sink to my knees Something in there Took quite a bit of jelly Something hatches in it.  There's the cover I'm trying to rinse this out a little bit. That's a pretty swift net, huh? Yep Are there regulations on how wide it can be? Yeah, it's gonna be can only be 30 feet from wing tip to the cod end 30 feet. Yeah, and then whip anything. No, it don't matter And height doesn't matter. This is an eight footer. Oh, wow Some of these guys like that one there's probably a 10 footer. Wow. I'm having another one built for us It's a 10 footer so we can put it Put it up above on the other side of the wall Oh that guy's got his from the top of that wall down. Yeah. Wow. He's got a 10 foot net, I'd say And these got to get checked every there's supposed to be every 16 hours That's an odd number, isn't it just based on tide or yep Yep That must have been awful back in the wild the last of this having it having a net out Oh, yeah, card ends being cut off.   Geez So you don't know what you caught yet? Nope. Nope. She won't tell you to get back to the house. Cool Do we have like baby jellyfish or something? No, it's something's hatched Could be krill. I'm not sure what it that hatches out of it. Let me see a couple heels in there Oh, yeah, it plugs the holes up so you can't get the water out of it Let me grab the blue one too. Yeah, I'll dump it dump it in that right now. This stuff's pretty nasty, yeah Yeah What do they tell me caught or something? I don't know. What are these fish? Ah, those are chubs. Oh, no, one of chubs, yeah Yep, yeah, we tried to get that net to catch everything. That's the good thing about those nets they catch a lot of that jelly Get it separated. Oh, yeah, let's see Yep, he's wary Yeah, there's one over there. I don't know if he's dead or alive It's another thing too is sea fleas. Sea fleas will bite them and kill them So everything wants to get these guys. Yep, it's about Jeff do this two or three times before you get all this jelly out Is that like a new problem? No, no always Everything comes in stages. Yeah, it does it comes in stages Like the first few nights, I didn't have any jelly The last two or three nights Like I said, I think something hatched And all of a sudden I get and at a certain time of the tide I'll get all that jelly Not many today, not least you had yesterday not even close You never know that's the thing why I like dipping because you never know You could anything catch a pound two pounds next night catch nothing it's There's probably Three four thousand dollars there Four thousand dollars worth of years Gold rush of mean Yeah, truly is. Yep Yeah, they say you claim it's like a 90 mortality rate on them. Wow So maybe 10% of them make it to adulthood But like I said, I believe when they are adults They produce a million per foot A million So they're smaller than Than your hair. Oh, yeah when they're hatched or balloons. Yep Yep, I believe that's what it is So I saw one black one earlier what I got. Yeah, he's a That one right there Yeah Yeah, no really if he goes through the net, he's legal. I mean there's a certain size But they really don't want them. Oh, okay, because they they've already developed a mouth. They've been up in the river for a little while There he is He's legal, but They don't really want something like that I'll put him back Water in it I'll go back down. I'll take dump them back overboard. Oh, wow. Yeah We're gonna have a good night. Oh, that's slick. We'll move this one through. Oh swim right through All the grass and stuff stays in there. Yeah They're pretty fast wicked fast What else happened in the wild west guys would grab your bucket? Oh, yeah, some people would come down and you didn't dare to leave your bucket alone See if they come back and it could be empty Yep, and it was shoulder the shoulder sometimes. Oh, yeah, there was it was there was people lined up. There'd be 50 people down here Right in this one area where I give it all by myself now There'd be 50 people here Yeah Putin in holler and all that All kinds of craziness any fights. Oh, yeah. I was down here one night four guys went in the water Yep. Oh, yeah, they had fights this year Oh, yeah, yeah, down one. They had some issues down in Pamuqued and issues in Camden I just go to those places. I'm going to them anymore Is it over like location? Yep Yeah, that's my spot. No, that's my spot Okay, there first you don't get it. Yeah, you know, the other person doesn't get it So one good thing down here is Most everybody's established their spot. Yeah, so it's pretty good down here But you get places that are early early In the season They want to take to the spot Little guys. Yeah That's what they like though. They've got little ones. That seems like more than the other night. Yep Nice That was a good one There's probably a couple hundred deals there If the moon's gone behind the clouds, that's why this they could have been driving them tonight that Nice We'll stickle back a couple hundred deals are better there and thinking things are close to a dollar a piece It's crazy. They go all the way over to japan with them.  Yeah. No. Yeah. Uh, well a lot of times I think they process them all Okay They'll smoke them and stuff like that because smoke here is big here from what I hadn't seen Not that I'd eat it, but I didn't know that Yeah, smoke here, smoke here is pretty big here I probably didn't get quite as long Yeah Still still a hundred bucks there Hundred dollar bill no better. We take that one. Yeah. Oh, yeah, dip for five minutes five minutes for a hundred dollar bill
