welcome. try not to get injured.

ear has not poped since my flight two days ago, can hardly chew

Take sinus medication and put fairly hot/steamy water in a cup and hold it up to your ear. Should help relieve some pressure...

Ok I'll try the cup thing. Been taking decongestant.

What sort of doctor/specialist would I want to see for a wrist injury? Something got f-ed up during a 102kg snatch, and now lateral rotation (like waving goodbye just moving the wrist) produces incredibly intense pain. It's my right hand, ulnar side. I don't know if a GP will be able to do anything other than refer me to a specialist anyway. Got it splinted up for the time being.

FWIW I finished the 102kg lift, even though I felt the pain (and heard a little click) during the catch at the bottom. Shame, cuz I was solid on every lift and it was feeling like PR time.

Go see an ortho, or a GP with sports medicine training. The latter is probably not listed on most provider's websites so you'll have to call clinics and ask for credentials/training.

Two scales have confirmed I weigh 180lbs.. Think this is the heaviest I've ever been.

Invented a new economic concept style forum brahs (am aware that this is not strictly a health and exercise thought, but neither is does my ass look fat in these jeans), hoping to get it listed in the Financial Accounting Standards. Basically I'm doing an essay on whether accounting played a role in the financial crisis and the concept of market value came up and some pricks who think historic value is better. I have thought up a concept I call the bobesian value of an asset, which I think will improve the accuracy of asset valuation by being kind of like a hybrid of the historic and market value. Basically for the recording of the assets value you use the mean of several recent values of the market value so if over 3 months the value of an asset varied from 100 to 110 to 95 you would use the bobesian value of 102. The greater the number of values you use the less fluctuations you will have in the value, but there is a possibility that it will reduce the accuracy of the real value of the asset. Number of values can be decided by accounting boards. Someone let me know if this already exists so I don't mistakenly refer to it in my essay as to bobesian value.

ah, the old FAS essay. Accounting undergrad here btw.

Not sure, but there has been strong lobbying towards Value-In-use instead of historical cost (e.g traditional depreciation/amortization) recently. Your concept is sound, but brings up the relevance vs reliability argument. Also, not all assets can be valued on a similar basis due to thin markets; noise speculation etc etc.

Oly lifting bros, normal to have sore arms and wrists from doing clean & jerk + snatches x2 a week for the 1st time in my life?

No pain or mobility affected, just feeling tender in my shoulders, upper arms, traps and wrists. Glutes and quads are also tight as hell too.
