Review from Hammon Russell
Good app Only wish it updated food lists more. And I wish building food items such a subway sandwich didn't take 15 trips to get ingredients all entered. Other than that easiest way I have ever lost weight. Thanks.

Needs cohesive search feature back I've been using this app for years and it just keeps getting better. Only thing: food in weight is WAY more accurate. Too much bouncing back & forth between Loseit and other programs to figure out with inconsistent measuring units. Otherwise, great. Nice interface.
The best daily food log You begin with a bank of calories to spend for the day, making withdrawals as you log what you eat. Tracks weight losses, nutrition goals you set for yourself. Very personalized. You can add new foods by scanning barcodes, create recipes (like your own spaghetti, soup). Love it. Once you track your food, you'll start to lose those extra pounds. Free version is all I use.
This has been the greatest app!! I thought loosing those pesky 10 pounds would have been difficulty; however, LoseIt! made it really easy while keeping me on track and providing the positive reinforcement that made loosing weight fun and less of a chore...Thank you!
Does what it says...it will Only issues are so minor they arent even worth going through.
Nice array of food I have only once so far scanned and it not find anything. Would be 5 stars if I could record how much water I drank and calculate how much water I need to drink.
Great app but I wish we could customize the exercises. On the last update it also changed some of my foods to incorrect values or doesn't offer some popular fast food items. If I could add more than one thing at one time would give 5 stars GREAT.

Best Weight Management App I have tried other apps and they just don't compare to Lose It. There are certainly lithe features I would like to see; a more detailed weight graph for starters. However, I've tried other apps and they lack some of the simple functionality of Lose It. Like, I want to be able to put in tomorrow's breakfast tonight. Lose It let's me do that.
Only two things can make this better. 1) Add a widget. 2) Make the search letter sensitive. I have trouble searching certain things because it doesn't like my search, so just fix those and; PERFECTION
Always the best I have used this to lose weight on two occasions and to maintain. It is one of the easiest and most comprehensive apps for weight loss out there. Request: please add a widget! A 4x1 with different options to display info (look at Evernotes widget options) and a button to record would be great.
Love it! I am loving this app. Switched from Noom and I couldn't be happier. I love that it syncs with a website version and makes it so easy to stay on track. Thank you!!!

9 Exercises Trainers Would Never Do:
1.Skip: "Pressed Heels" Sit-Ups
Do: Bent-Knee Pilates Hundred
Aerobic Exercises
An effective weight loss workout routine should include both the aerobic exercises and strength training exercises.
Aerobic exercises are workouts that get your heart pumping, such as walking briskly, bike riding, using an elliptical machine and jogging just to name a few.
When doing aerobic exercises, you want to make sure you are working with in yourtarget heart rate to get the benefit from your fat burning exercise routine.
A good rule of thumb is that when doing your aerobic exercise, you should be able to have a light conversation, say a few sentences at a time. But you should not be able to sing a complete song nor should you be totally out of breath.

Andrew Mitchell should be sacked by the Prime Minister, Yvette Cooper said as Labour stepped up its attacks on the embattled chief whip.
The shadow home secretary said the time had passed for clarifications and apologies over Mr Mitchell's alleged use of the word "pleb", and said David Cameron had to act.
Labour has previously raised questions over Mr Mitchell's ability to stay in his post, which he gained in last month's reshuffle, but has stopped short of calling for his resignation or for Mr Cameron to sack him.
Mr Mitchell, who was accused in news reports of a foul-mouthed rant at Downing Street police officers when they would not let him cycle through the street's main gate, has apologised for not treating officers with respect but denied calling them plebs.
Ms Cooper's call comes ahead of a meeting between Mr Mitchell and the West Mercia Police Federation in his Sutton Coldfield constituency.
She said: "This has gone on long enough. Neither the Prime Minister nor the chief whip have proved capable of coming clean swiftly and putting this right. And it is now clear no one even in the Conservative Party has confidence in Andrew Mitchell either.
"The failure by David Cameron and Andrew Mitchell to take this incident seriously enough and to sort it out straight away means Andrew Mitchell will clearly not be able to instil respect in Parliament or beyond as chief whip, and this will just drag on and on. David Cameron needs to put an end to this now and remove Andrew Mitchell from his position as chief whip."
Mr Mitchell has faced repeated calls for clarification about the incident.
Mr Cameron has insisted that what happened was wrong and should not happen again but has not gone further, highlighting that the officers involved wanted to draw a line under the affair.
Mr Mitchell did not attend this week's Conservative Party conference amid speculation that he could yet lose his job, weeks after the initial report in The Sun.

Thailand justifiably has a reputation for producing some of the world's best food, and as with any national cuisine, the best Thai food can be found in the country itself. Thais who travel will often bemoan the inferior quality of Thai food overseas, while foreigners who have visited here will never look at another country's green curry in quite the same way again. Hell, I once had the misfortune of ordering a plate of pad Thai in Manchester and finding they substituted tamarind sauce for tomato ketchup!
Yet exactly the same logic can be applied in Thailand – if you're looking for good foreign food, you might be best off going to the country in question. Just because the local food in Thailand can be mind-blowing, it doesn't necessarily follow that the kitchens of the Land of Smiles can perform similar culinary feats with dishes from abroad.
People who grow up with a certain type of food know it best. Add in the scarcity of certain ingredients in certain countries, plus how relatively new some foreign food is to Thailand, and stir in some peculiar local twists, tastes and takes on foreign dishes, and you have…

"Hey, where you go?" "How much you pay?" "Meter not work." Phrases that are all-too familiar for anybody who has been to Bangkok, beginning as soon as you leave the arrivals area of the airport and following you all along downtown, around the visitor attractions and surrounding your hotel. Yes, it's the hawking call of the notorious Bangkok taxi driver.
There are an estimated 60,000 of them in the city, and to be fair, the majority of them are reasonable enough. It's just the majority of them do not congregate at the airport, the tourist traps, the nightspots, the malls and the big hotels. It is the unscrupulous few who dominate these places, who can spot a freshly arrived holidaymaker at a hundred paces, who can speak enough English to negotiate a con, and who foster the negative image many visitors take home of the corrupt cabbie.

Thailand's image needs all the help it can get right now. Last month's dramatic footage of bomb sites and gun fights across Bangkok played out internationally and many countries have yet to lift their travel warnings to the erstwhile Land of Smiles.
For sure, confidence has been rocked, and even beyond the photos of war on the streets, the reputation of Thai people as gentle, benevolent Buddhists has been tarnished by displays of downright ugly behaviour during such fractious times.
Whether the protesters promising – and almost succeeding – to turn Bangkok into a "sea of fire", or their opponents cheering and swearing as the death toll neared a hundred, there was precious little positive humanity on display.

Administration of Relationships
with Primary Dealers |
January 11, 2010 | |
The primary dealers serve, first and foremost, as trading counterparties of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (The New York Fed) in its implementation of monetary policy. This role includes the obligations to: (i) participate consistently as counterparty to the New York Fed in its execution of open market operations to carry out U.S. monetary policy pursuant to the direction of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC); and (ii) provide the New York Fed's trading desk with market information and analysis helpful in the formulation and implementation of monetary policy. Primary dealers are also required to participate in all auctions of U.S. government debt and to make reasonable markets for the New York Fed when it transacts on behalf of its foreign official account-holders. This policy sets the standards for primary dealers (Standards). Each primary dealer must meet the Standards, initially and on an on-going basis. All primary dealers will be expected to engage in the traditional primary dealer functions listed above. All primary dealers will also be eligible to: (i) participate in the New York Fed's overnight securities lending facility; and (ii) participate in such other operations or facilities, pursuant to their terms and as set forth in this policy, as may be available to primary dealers from time to time.1 The New York Fed continues to emphasize that the nature of its relationship with primary dealers is a counterparty relationship, not a regulatory one. This policy establishes the framework by which the New York Fed will prudently manage its counterparty risk consistent with its mandates to implement monetary policy and promote financial stability. The New York Fed also recognizes the value of maintaining transparency in its administration of its relationships with the primary dealers. In light of the foregoing, third parties are reminded that the designation of an entity as a primary dealer by the New York Fed in no way constitutes a public endorsement of that entity by the New York Fed, nor should such designation be viewed as a replacement for prudent counterparty risk management and due diligence. Finally, some of the activities associated with the primary dealer designation are not exclusive to primary dealers. Firms that are not primary dealers are permitted, but not required to bid directly in Treasury auctions. Firms that are not primary dealers may share market information with staff on the open market desk at the New York Fed about market conditions and other useful market color. This policy includes four sections:
The suggested form of written application for becoming a primary dealer is attached as an Appendix to this policy. I. STANDARDS Business standards The New York Fed expects a primary dealer to:
These business standards represent a formalization of existing practice that has accumulated over time and do not represent new standards expected of primary dealers. In the selection process, the New York Fed will evaluate a prospective primary dealer with these expectations in mind.2 In this regard, a prospective primary dealer should be prepared to demonstrate to the New York Fed its activity levels in the various markets in which the New York Fed's domestic trading desk transacts. A prospective dealer must be able to demonstrate an ability to provide sizable, sustained performance in operations in, at a minimum, the U.S. Treasury repo and cash markets, and preferably also in one or more other markets in which the New York Fed transacts. The New York Fed also prefers that a prospective primary dealer show underwriting capability in all such markets. Because Treasury auction participation is not limited to primary dealers, the New York Fed expects a prospective primary dealer to participate in Treasury auctions at levels expected of primary dealers (described below) prior to becoming a primary dealer. In its ongoing evaluation of a primary dealer's performance against these expectations, the New York Fed will look to the amount of business of various types actually transacted and the quality of the firm's participation along with the quality of the market commentary it provides to the New York Fed. Specifically, in evaluating participation in the New York Fed repo operations, the New York Fed will expect a primary dealer to bid in every operation commensurate with its size, and its bid rates should be reasonable when compared to the range of rates in the market, taking into account market volatility and other risk factors. In other open market operations, the New York Fed will expect a primary dealer to bid, or otherwise participate, in operations at levels commensurate with its size and presence in the market. Primary dealers should participate similarly in support of Treasury auctions: the New York Fed will expect a primary dealer to bid in every auction, for, at a minimum, an amount of securities representing its pro rata share, based on the number of primary dealers at the time of the auction, of the offered amount. Its bid prices should be reasonable when compared to the range of rates trading in the when-issued market, taking into account market volatility and other risk factors. Primary dealers that do little business with the New York Fed over a period of time, that repeatedly provide bids and offers in the New York Fed operations or Treasury auctions that are not reasonably competitive, or that fail to provide useful market information and commentary, are not meeting the New York Fed's expectations of a primary dealer. In those situations, the New York Fed may limit a primary dealer's access to any or all of the primary dealer facilities or operations, and may suspend or terminate a primary dealer if it continues to fail to meet these business standards. Responsible Counterparty and Market Participant On an ongoing basis, the New York Fed expects primary dealers to act as responsible counterparties and market participants in their overall conduct and support of market efficiency and liquidity. As an example, the New York Fed expects its counterparties to have implemented the Treasury Market Best Practices published by the Treasury Market Practices Group (TMPG),3 which currently includes the U.S. Treasury Securities Fails Charge Trading Practice. With respect to the New York Fed transactions, including open market operations, the New York Fed may from time to time counsel primary dealers as to the appropriate use of any traditional or nontraditional primary dealer financing facilities, and would expect a primary dealer to behave consistently with such guidance. The New York Fed may limit a primary dealer's access to any or all of the primary dealer facilities or operations, and may suspend or terminate a primary dealer if it fails to meet these behavioral standards of conduct or responsibility. Financial Condition and Supervision A primary dealer must be either a broker-dealer4 registered with and supervised by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) or a U.S.-chartered bank (commercial bank, thrift, national bank or state bank) that is subject to official supervision by bank supervisors. The primary dealer must meet certain minimum capital requirements:
The New York Fed believes a minimum net capital requirement is a prudent element of its counterparty credit risk management. Given the business expectations of primary dealers and the meaningful securities positions that primary dealers may take as a consequence, a firm with lower capital will be unable to take such positions without significant leverage, which would increase the risk to the firm and to the New York Fed. Note that these capital levels are minimum requirements. The New York Fed may impose a higher capital requirement as circumstances, in its judgment, warrant. For example, the New York Fed may impose a higher capital requirement upon primary dealer applicants with higher risk business or financial strategies or practices, or if a firm does not have significant parent or affiliate support. In general, the New York Fed must determine that an applicant's financial condition can comfortably support the obligations of a primary dealer. In making this judgment, the New York Fed will conduct a credit review of the applicant and will consider various measures of the applicant's financial condition. The New York Fed may consult with the relevant bank supervisors, the SEC and/or the relevant SRO, as applicable, regarding the primary dealer's maintenance of these capital standards. The New York Fed will not consider an application from a prospective primary dealer that does not meet these capital standards. The New York Fed will suspend or terminate the primary dealer relationship if a primary dealer fails to meet these capital or financial standards on an ongoing basis.7 In addition, the New York Fed may, consistent with ongoing prudent risk management and any applicable policy mandates, limit its exposure to all or certain primary dealers by capping their usage or otherwise adjusting the terms of use of particular facilities.Seasoning The New York Fed will consider an application from a prospective primary dealer only if it (1) has been a U.S. broker-dealer or bank (as set forth in section C above) for at least one year prior to the submission of the application and (2) has engaged in the business areas relevant to the functions of a primary dealer for at least one year prior to the submission of the application. Operations The New York Fed expects a primary dealer to have, or to have arrangements for another party to provide it the services of, a "back office" of sufficient size and experience to be able to (1) confirm and arrange settlement of transactions with the New York Fed and (2) manage trading at the volume levels expected by the New York Fed. A primary dealer must also:
A primary dealer must also have a robust business continuity plan and be able to interface with the New York Fed, FICC-GSD, and its clearing organization from an alternate location staffed by trained personnel. Compliance, Internal Controls, Legal and Regulatory Matters The New York Fed expects a primary dealer to maintain a robust compliance program, including procedures to identify and mitigate legal, regulatory, financial, and reputational risks.8 Such program should include compliance professionals dedicated to the business lines relevant to the primary dealer functions and activities at the firm. The New York Fed may consult with the relevant bank supervisors or the SEC, the relevant SRO and other regulators, as applicable, regarding the firm's control environment, as well as recent and pending regulatory and legal matters and any other matters the New York Fed deems relevant. Applicants will be expected to provide a letter directed to its regulators consenting to the provision of such information, including nonpublic information, to the New York Fed upon its request. The New York Fed will not designate as a primary dealer any firm that is, or recently has been (within the last year) subject to litigation or regulatory action or investigation that the New York Fed determines material or otherwise relevant to the potential primary dealer relationship. In making such determination, the New York Fed will consider, among other things, whether and how any such matters have been resolved or addressed and the applicant's history of such matters and will consult with the appropriate regulators for their views. In addition, with regard to existing primary dealers, the New York Fed may limit access to any or all of the primary dealer facilities or operations, and may suspend or terminate a primary dealer relationship if a primary dealer becomes the subject of, or involved with, regulatory or legal proceedings that, in the judgment of the New York Fed, unfavorably impacts the primary dealer relationship. If in the New York Fed's judgment, a prospective primary dealer does not maintain a sufficiently robust control environment, its application may be declined. In the case of existing primary dealers, the New York Fed may limit access to any or all of the primary dealer facilities or operations, and may suspend or terminate a primary dealer if it appears, in the New York Fed's judgment, to have an inadequate or weak control environment. Primary Dealers Act Consistent with the Primary Dealers Act of 1988 (the Act),9 a foreign-owned dealer or bank may not be newly designated, or continue to be designated, as a primary dealer in cases where the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board) and the New York Fed have concluded that the country in which a foreign parent is domiciled does not provide the same competitive opportunities to U.S. companies as it does to domestic firms in the underwriting and distribution of Government debt. As of the date of this policy, the Board and the New York Fed have made affirmative determinations with respect to France, Germany, Japan, the Netherlands, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. In addition, firms controlled by persons domiciled in Canada and Israel are grandfathered under the Act. Other Considerations Each primary dealer will be expected to agree to provide the New York Fed with any information deemed relevant by the New York Fed about the primary dealer or the primary dealer's parent companies. Nonetheless, because of the quality and quantity of readily available financial information about public companies, the New York Fed prefers, but does not require, that the primary dealer (or the holding company of the primary dealer) be a public company. For non-public firms, the New York Fed requires timely delivery of quarterly financial statements, annual audited financial statements with notes, and other relevant disclosures. For public firms, the New York Fed requires the timely delivery of the same information if it is not publicly available on the companys website. II. STATISTICAL REPORTS ON GOVERNMENT SECURITIES ACTIVITIES A primary dealer is expected to file the FR 2004 reports on an ongoing basis. The FR 2004 reports collect weekly data on primary dealers' outright positions, transactions, and financing and fails in Treasury and other marketable debt securities. In addition, daily data is collected on positions in to-be-issued Treasury securities.10 This data is reported on the FR 2004WI report. Aggregate data is published on the New York Fed's public website with a one week lag. More detailed information on the FR2004 report forms and instructions can be found at http://www.newyorkfed.org/markets/primarydealers.html. Any changes to these reporting requirements will be published there. III. SANCTIONS IN THE EVENT OF NON-COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARDS The New York Fed may take action against any primary dealer that does not comply with the standards set forth in this policy. That action will vary depending upon the type of non-compliance, but may range, for instance, from suspension from one or all programs for a period of time to termination as a primary dealer. IV. APPLICATION PROCESS A firm wishing to become a primary dealer must submit an application to the New York Fed. The application is attached as an Appendix to this policy. Prior to submitting a written application, firms considering whether to apply to become a primary dealer are encouraged to discuss the possibility with relevant New York Fed staff. Please direct inquiries to: firstname.lastname@example.com Upon submission of a formal application, a prospective primary dealer can expect at least six months of formal consideration by the New York Fed.11 That consideration may include, among other things, on-site reviews of front, middle, and back office operations, review of compliance programs and discussions with compliance and credit risk management staff, discussions with senior management about business plans, financial condition, and the ability to meet the New York Feds business needs, review of financial information, and consultation with primary supervisors and regulators. ___________________________ |

10 Rules of style from Tom Ford
I don't believe in playing around much with suit cuts. I like a fairly classic shape that gives a man strong shoulders, a fitted waist, and long legs. Classic simplicity always works.2.
Someone who is secure enough to be very present when relating to another person is sexy. In other words, a good listener always lands who he wants.3.
When mixing patterns, don't think about it too much—just throw it together.4.
I hate the trend of short suit jackets. When a man's butt is showing below the bottom of his jacket, I think it makes him look like a female flight attendant from the back—not my idea of sexy.5.
With jewelry, I actually like bracelets more than anything else, but they have to be small and simple. Cary Grant always wore a simple gold bracelet with his watch, and I think that was very chic.

Decimal data type
Some programming languages provide a built-in (primitive) or library decimal data type to represent non-repeating decimal fractions like 0.3 and -1.17 without rounding, and to do arithmetic on them. Examples are the decimal.Decimal
type of Python, and analogous types provided by other languages.
Fractional numbers are supported on most programming languages as floating-point numbers or fixed-point numbers. However, such representations typically restrict the denominator to a power of two. Most decimal fractions (or most fractions in general) cannot be represented exactly as a fraction with a denominator that is a power of two. For example, the simple decimal fraction 0.3 (3/10) might be represented as 5404319552844595/18014398509481984 (0.299999999999999988897769...). This inexactness causes many problems that are familiar to experienced programmers. For example, the expression 0.1 * 7 == 0.7
might counterintuitively evaluate to false in some systems, due to the inexactness of the representation of decimals.
Although all decimal fractions are fractions, and thus it is possible to use a rational data type to represent it exactly, it may be more convenient in many situations to consider only non-repeating decimal fractions (fractions whose denominator is a power of ten). For example, fractional units of currency worldwide are mostly based on a denominator that is a power of ten. Also, most fractional measurements in science are reported as decimal fractions, as opposed to fractions with any other system of denominators.
A decimal data type could be implemented as either a floating-point number or as a fixed-point number. In the fixed-point case, the denominator would be set to a fixed power of ten. In the floating-point case, a variable exponent would represent the power of ten to which the mantissa of the number is multiplied.
Languages that support a rational data type usually allow the construction of such a value from a string, instead of a base-2 floating-point number, due to the loss of exactness the latter would cause. Usually the basic arithmetic operations ('+', '−', '×', '/', integer powers) and comparisons ('=', '<', '>', '≤') would be extended to act on them — either natively or through operator overloading facilities provided by the language. These operations may be translated by the compiler into a sequence of integer machine instructions, or into library calls. Support may also extend to other operations, such as formatting, rounding to an integer or floating point value, etc..
Standard formats[edit]
IEEE 754 specifies three standard floating-point decimal data types of different precision:
Language support[edit]
- Starting with Python 2.4, Python's standard library includes a Decimal class in the module decimal.[1]
- Ruby's standard library includes a BigDecimal class in the module bigdecimal
- Java's standard library includes a Class java.math.BigDecimal class
- In Objective-C, the Cocoa and GNUstep APIs provide an NSDecimalNumber class and an NSDecimal C datatype for representing decimals whose mantissa is up to 38 digits long, and exponent is from -128 to 127.
- Some IBM systems and SQL systems support DECFLOAT format with at least the two larger formats[2]
- ABAP's new DECFLOAT data type includes decimal64 (as DECFLOAT16) and decimal128 (as DECFLOAT34) formats[3]
