Another Millenium Problem May Have Been Solved
S3D writes "After recent verification of the proof of the Poincaré conjecture, another of the Clay Institute's Millenium Problems may have been solved. This new solution is for Navier-Stokes equations under physically reasonable conditions. Navier-Stocks equations describe the motion of fluid substances such as liquids and gases. Penny Smith has posted an Arxiv paper entitled 'Immortal Smooth Solution of the Three Space Dimensional Navier-Stokes System' which may prove the existence of such solutions."
She wrote a paper entitled "A regularity result for singular nonlinear elliptic systems in inverse-power weighted Sobolev spaces."
Someone needs to get laid. Any volunteers? Take one for the geek team, she's lonely!
Am I right, or am I right? I'm right.
Hello group, Benedict XVI, the Nazi Pope here. It has come to my attention that one of you recently shot up a schoolroom full of Amish children. Be advised that this is against the will of God and the Saviour.
It is a just act in the eyes of the Lord only to kill Jews, homosexuals, and Islamists. Amish persons and other Prostestants are off limits. I hope this clears things up.
I wish that there were spell checks on whatever is submitted. "Millenium" indeed.
learn how one man can restructure his entire life to revolve around feces and farting. how one man has basically made defecation his career. yeah it's sick. but it's true, it's william scott lockwood and he is taking dumps on local toddlers, ugh, just horrible!!!! usa kicked him out to us here in whitehorse and let me say, yukon territory says go back to the states vlad you son of a bitch!!!!!!
it's about the mathematics of farting
hahahaha
oops (sorry)
I know you're out there. I can feel you now. I know that you're afraid. You're afraid of us. You're afraid of change.
IANA Expert in Fluid Dynamics; however, though an exact solution exists, this doesn't mean that it'll be easy to find even if we have a method or formula to solve it exactly.
Here's an example. Two board, one 3m and one 2m are laying crisscross in an alley, with one end in each corner of the alley, and laying the other end on the opposite wall.
Their intersection is exactly 1m from the ground, how wide is the alley?
This problem is very easy to find a numeric solution, but suprisingly difficult to find the exact solution (by hand). But we already know the method to find it, it's simple algebra.
Just because an exact solution exists doesn't mean it's pratical or it will be used, if the approximation is good enough, or much faster. As I understand it though, Fluid Dynamics is a chaotic system. So an exact solution is probably preferrable unless the calculation disparity is wide enough. Just thought I'd point out the obvious because no one else was doing it.

The last refuge of modern sexists is the claim that even if men and women have the same average scores, men have a greater variance and therefore are more likely to produce the very top level mathematicians and scientists. For an example of the debate see Pinker vs. Spelke, or one could also read Dr. Elizabeth Spelke's papers including Sex differences in intrinsic aptitude for mathematics and science: A critical review.
Christina Sormani has a web page explaining why Penny Smith is likely to have solved the Millenium Problem on the Navier-Stokes equation. Smith's paper is the culmination of a lifetime of research similar to how Wiles' proof of Fermat's Last Theorem was a logical outcome of his previous research. This is not someone coming from out of nowhere providing a proof that has nothing to do with his or her prior specialty.
The debate is now over. Penny Smith has shown that there is in fact no variance between men and women that predisposes men to have the very top mathematicians. In fact the proof that environment trumps genetics has been demonstrated in the United States over the past decades: males born in the United States have been judged by government and industry to not be good enough in top-level mathematics which is why so much talent has to be imported from other countries. The United States is probably going to follow the path of the United Kingdom where cultural factors are causing boys mathematical achievement in school to collapse relative to that of girls.
What makes you think that? There have been some scams (snake oil and the like) but energy healing is real.
Try this: when you pray (if you're religious/spiritual; it's not necessary because all humans can do this, so if you're not religious you can just press your palms together and not pray), breathe deeply. Fill your lungs, until your shoulders rise, then empty them completely. Use your diaphragm as well to maximize the air exchanged with the environment. You don't have to breathe fast (although that does help), you just need to breathe deeply.
For me, it took 30-40 hours of practice before I began "feeling the energy". To me, it feels like a tingling, similar to the feeling when a body part "falls asleep" -- except it's a light tingling and I can still feel sensations in my hands, they're not numb.
It's okay to mod me down, because I'm not saying something that is unverifiable. I realize that 30-40 hours is a bit of effort to verify, but I did it and was very skeptical that it would work, even while doing it; it still worked, and now I don't need to believe -- I know, I have experienced it.
We do not yet have equipment sensitive enough to measure this "energy". That doesn't mean it doesn't exist, or that the sensations I feel are not real (or that the healing I've experienced in my weak joints was somehow faked). In the past, we did not yet have equipment sensitive enough to measure bacteria and viruses, but people still died by the thousands of various plagues. (I.e., "Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.")
I am sorry that you had a bad experience. I'm not here to sell anything. It worked for me, and I'm positive it will work for you if you attempt it, even with a closed mind (like mine was). Just breathe deep; that's the only requirement, and it is a requirement. Once you've felt it, you can achieve it with less breathing, but the breathing is necessary; it's something in the air.
The specific technique that I learned was Jin Shin Jyutsu. The book "The Touch of Healing" is how I got started. I've also read "Quantum Touch". You don't need to buy these, they should be available through your local library (or via inter-library loan). Good health!
