Though body mass index is a simple, easy, and inexpensive way to measure your body size and fat content, it is not perfect. Because it does not directly measure your body fat, the results will not be as accurate as other measures.
General Information/Narrative [Suggest Change] Prior to submission of the Program Objective Memorandum (POM) to OSD in July (e.g. 2015), operational organizations and field activities such as program offices begin developing their individual POMs as a prelude to the headquarters' call for budget estimates.
POM comes from POHM Prisoner of His/Her Majesty because the British settlers in Australia were mostly convicts and now for the Australians it just means British person. Another, seemingly unlikely, explanation is that it started as slang for immigrant which became pommegranate and then turned to pommy or pom.eport Abuse. In Australia and New Zealand, a pom (or pommy) is a slang for a British person, especially one who is a recent immigrant. The word has been considered to be insulting.
