NATURAL RESOURCES DEFENSE COUNCIL, INC., PLAINTIFF,v.WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE, A COMPONENT OF THEUNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE, AND THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE, DEFENDANTS.
Plaintiff Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc. ("NRDC") brings this action alleging that defendants Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and the United States Department of the Air Force (collectively, the "Air Force") failed to conduct an adequate search for records responsive to a Freedom of Information Act ("FOIA") request made pursuant to 5 U.S.C. § 552. Defendants move pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 56 for summary judgment in their favor on the ground that they have conducted an adequate search. Plaintiff opposes this motion and cross-moves for limited discovery. Because this Court finds that defendants have conducted an adequate search, their motion for summary judgment is granted.
The following facts are undisputed unless otherwise noted.
A. The FOIA Request
On October 2, 2009, the NRDC submitted to the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base a FOIA request concerning a $6 billion "coal-to-liquid facility" (the "Facility") for Wellsville, Ohio proposed by Baard Energy. (See Letter from NRDC to Wright-Patterson (Oct. 2, 2009), Ex. 1 to Declaration of Darrin L. Booher dated Oct. 28, 2010 ("Booher Decl."); Compl. ¶2.) According to the Complaint, the Facility would employ technologies "never before used in the United States to convert coal into diesel fuel, naphtha . . . and electricity." (Compl. ¶ 2.) In doing so, the Facility would allegedly emit annually more than 26 million tons of carbon dioxide, thereby "contribut[ing] to global warming" and "endanger[ing] human health and the environment." (Id. ¶ 3.) Specifically, the NRDC requested from Wright-Patterson all records regarding:
(1) Any proposal by Baard Energy to enter into a contract for the purchase of fuel that would be generated by the Facility; (2) Any evaluation of the Facility as a possible source of fuel for the United States government or any of its components; (3) Any communications between Baard Energy and [Wright-Patterson] or any other [Department of Defense ("DOD")] components regarding the Baard Energy [] Facility; and (4) Any communications between the Ohio Department of Development, the Ohio Air Quality Development Authority, or the Columbiana County Port Authority and [Wright-Patterson] or other DOD components regarding the Baard Energy [] Facility. (Letter from NRDC to Wright-Patterson (Oct. 2, 2009) at 1-2.)
B. The Air Force's Initial Search and Response that "No Records" Exist
Upon receiving the NRDC's FOIA request, the Air Force assigned it a case number and an action officer. (Booher Decl. ¶ 4.) The Air Force also confirmed with an NRDC attorney that the records search should be limited to Wright-Patterson and not referred to other Department of Defense ("DOD") organizations even though the FOIA request referenced DOD organizations apart from Wright-Patterson. (Id. ¶¶ 6-7.) Initially, the Air Force forwarded the FOIA request to the Civil Engineering Branch of the 88th Air Base Wing, which advised that it was not responsible for the subject matter addressed in the NRDC's FOIA request. (Id. ¶ 8.)
The Air Force next forwarded the request to the Propulsion Directorate at the Air Force Research Laboratory ("AFRL") located at Wright-Patterson. (Id.) Specifically, the request went to Detachment 1, AFRL Directorate of Contracting-the AFRL branch primarily responsible for contracts having to do with fuel-related issues. (Id. ¶¶ 9-10.) This branch searched relevant AFRL offices and records both manually and electronically, using the search terms "BAARD Energy," "Wellsville, Ohio" and "coal-to-liquid facility." It reported that no responsive records were located. (Id. ¶ 10.) As this search was being completed, an Air Force FOIA analyst sent the NRDC an email stating that the Air Force would likely issue a "No Records" response; however, the analyst did include two links in her email: one link to an article about the AFRL's alternative fuels program at Wright-Patterson and another to a document entitled "The Dayton Region's Wright-Patterson Air Force Base Strategic Vision," which listed "BAARD Energy" as a "key linkage" for supporting alternative fuels research. (See Ex. 6 to Decl. of Joshua A. Berman dated Nov. 29, 2010 ("Berman Decl.").) On November 17, 2009, the Air Force officially sent the NRDC a "No Records" response to the FOIA request stating that "[a] thorough search by Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL/PK) has not produced any responsive records." (Ex. 5 to Booher Decl.)
C. The NRDC's Administrative Appeal
The following month, the NRDC filed an administrative appeal of the Air Force's "No Records" response. (Ex. 6 to Booher Decl.) The NRDC attached to its appeal both the "Strategic Vision" document referring to Baard and a February 2009 email exchange that it had obtained through a separate public records requests to Ohio state agencies. (Booher Decl. ¶ 12; Attach. H to Berman Decl.) This email exchange between William Harrison-a Technical Advisor at the Fuels and Energy, Propulsion Directorate of the AFRL located at WrightPatterson-and Stephan Dopuch-Vice President of Business Development at Baard Energy- concerned the Air Force's policy on alternative fuels. (Id.)
The Air Force forwarded the NRDC's administrative appeal to Detachment 1 of the AFRL Directorate of Contracting, which confirmed that it had no responsive records and, in turn, forwarded the appeal directly to Harrison. (Booher Decl. ¶¶ 13-14.) According to a declaration by Darrin Booher, the Air Force action officer assigned to this FOIA request, Harrison subsequently "searched his paper and electronic records and located no records that were responsive to the FOIA request." (Id. ¶ 15.) Harrison also allegedly asked other staff members involved with synthetic fuels to search their files for responsive records, but none were located. (Id.)
In March 2010, the NRDC supplemented its administrative appeal with copies of two additional email exchanges from February and March 2007, respectively, which the NRDC had obtained from the state of Ohio and believed were relevant to the FOIA request. (Ex. 10 to id.) The first email exchange from February 2007-between Harrison and Dopuch from Baard Energy-referenced briefings that Harrison attended, a Baard project, and setting up a meeting. (Attach. I to Ex. 10 to id.) The March 2007 email exchange between Paul Bollinger-Special Assistant to the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force, Installations, Environment & Logistics- and John Baardson-a Baard executive-concerned Baardson's invitation to join high-ranking officials at an Air Force forum on energy. (Attach. J to Ex. 10 to id.) Booher stated that he specifically spoke to Harrison about the emails supplied by the NRDC and that Harrison said he did not have copies of these emails because he had deleted them pursuant to the Air Force's Records Disposition Schedule. (Id. ¶ 20.)
In July 2010, the Air Force expanded its search to additional Wright-Patterson offices. (Id. ¶ 21.) The expanded search covered offices dealing with contracting and environmental matters at its Headquarters Air Force Material Command and at its Aeronautical Systems Center, as well as its public affairs offices. (Id.) None of these offices located responsive records. (Id. ¶¶ 22-25.) On August 30, 2010, the Air Force affirmed its original "No Records" response and dismissed the NRDC's administrative appeal. (Ex. 12 to id.)
D. This Action and the Air Force's Belated Production of Responsive Records
Plaintiff commenced this action in April 2010, challenging the adequacy of the Air Force's search. In October 2010, two months after dismissal of the NRDC's administrative appeal, the Air Force moved for summary judgment on the ground that it had conducted an adequate search for responsive records. In support of this motion, the Air Force submitted a declaration from Booher, the officer assigned to the NRDC's FOIA request. Plaintiff opposed defendants' motion for summary judgment and has cross-moved for limited discovery related to the adequacy of the Air Force's searches, Harrison's purported destruction of responsive records, application of Air Force policy to those records, and whether any responsive records are otherwise retrievable through alternative search methods.
In the course of briefing these motions, the Air Force produced additional records responsive to the NRDC's FOIA request. A declaration by John Pellett-the Air Force counsel responsible for reviewing the NRDC's administrative appeal-acknowledges an earlier "miscommunication" between Harrison and Booher regarding the existence of responsive documents. (See Decl. of John M. Pellett dated Dec. 23, 2010 ¶ 5 ("Pellett Decl.").) Pellett states that in December 2010 he met with Harrison to clarify Harrison's response to the FOIA request and that, contrary to statements in Booher's declaration, the Air Force did in fact obtain responsive records from Harrison during the NRDC's administrative appeal. (Id.)
On the same day Pellett executed his declaration, the Air Force sent the NRDC's counsel five of those responsive documents-four filings before the Ohio Environmental Review Appeals Commission about the Facility and a January 2007 email from Dopuch of Baard Energy referencing a telephone discussion with a Wright-Patterson employee and an upcoming DOD briefing at which the Wright-Patterson employee might use information provided by Baard. (Id. ¶ 9; see Exs. 1, 2 to id.) The sixth document-a follow-up email from Dopuch dated February 1, 2007 with slides about the carbon output of what appears to be the Facility-was sent subsequently to the NRDC, but with redactions. (See Attach. to Letter from Joshua Berman (March 16, 2011).) The NRDC does not challenge any of the redactions. (Id.)
A. Summary Judgment Standard
Summary judgment is appropriate only if the evidence shows that there is no genuine dispute as to any material fact and the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(a); see Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 322 (1986). In determining whether a genuine dispute as to a material fact exists, the Court "is to resolve all ambiguities and draw all permissible factual inferences in favor of the party against whom summary judgment is sought." Patterson v. Cnty. of Oneida, 375 F.3d 206, 219 (2d Cir. 2004). Nonetheless, the party opposing summary judgment "may not rely on mere conclusory allegations nor speculation, but instead must offer some hard evidence" in support of its factual assertions. D'Amico v. City of New York, 132 F.3d 145, 149 (2d Cir. 1998).
The statutory and case law governing the adequacy of a FOIA search for records is rather straightforward. "In order to prevail on a motion for summary judgment in a FOIA case, the defending agency has the burden of showing that its search was adequate and that any withheld documents fall within an exemption to the FOIA." Carney v. U.S. Dep't of Justice, 19 F.3d 807, 812 (2d Cir. 1994) (citing 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(4)(B)). An agency may rely on "affidavits or declarations supplying facts indicating that the agency has conducted a thorough search and giving reasonably detailed explanations why any withheld documents fall within an exemption." Id. Such agency affidavit or declarations are "accorded a presumption of good faith." Id. (internal citation omitted). "In order to justify discovery once the agency has satisfied its burden, the plaintiff must make a showing of bad faith on the part of the agency sufficient to impugn the agency's affidavits or declarations, or provide some tangible evidence that an exemption claimed by the agency should not apply or summary judgment is otherwise inappropriate." Id. (internal citations omitted).
B. Adequacy of the Air Force's Search
The issue for resolution on these motions is whether the Air Force conducted an adequate search for records responsive to the NRDC's FOIA request. The NRDC contends that the Air Force has not met its burden because (1) the Air Force's declarations are inadmissible; (2) the Air Force's declarations are insufficiently detailed; and (3) there is tangible evidence of overlooked materials.
1.The Air Force's Declarations are Admissible Plaintiff challenges the admissibility of the Air Force's two declarations on the grounds that they are not based on personal knowledge and therefore are inadmissible hearsay. This argument is meritless. "An affidavit from an agency employee responsible for supervising a FOIA search is all that is needed to satisfy Rule 56(e)*fn1 ; there is no need for the agency to supply affidavits from each individual who participated in the actual search." Carney, 19 F.3d at 814; see Adamowicz v. I.R.S., 672 F. Supp. 2d 454, 463 (S.D.N.Y. 2009) (finding officer assigned to process FOIA request competent to testify about government's search). Here, Booher declares under penalty of perjury that he was the "action officer" responsible for processing the NRDC's FOIA request and that his declaration "is based on personal knowledge." (See Booher Decl. ¶¶ 1-4.) Similarly, Pellett states that he is the agency counsel assigned to this litigation and was responsible for reviewing the NRDC's administrative appeal, that he spoke with Booher and Harrison in order to resolve any discrepancies, and that his declaration is based on "personal knowledge." (See Pellett Decl. ¶¶ 1-5.) Accordingly, Booher and Pellett are competent to testify about the Air Force's search, and their declarations will be considered for the purpose of determining the adequacy of that search.
2.The Air Force's Declarations are Sufficiently Detailed The NRDC contends that even if the Air Force's declarations are admissible, they lack sufficient detail. The Second Circuit requires that agency declarations in support of summary judgment in FOIA cases be "relatively detailed and nonconclusory." Grand Cent. P'ship, Inc. v. Cuomo, 166 F.3d 473, 488-89 (2d Cir. 1999); see also Maynard v. C.I.A., 986 F.2d 547, 559 (1st Cir. 1993) ("A satisfactory agency affidavit should, at a minimum, describe in reasonable detail the scope and method by which the search was conducted."); Tarullo v. U.S. Dep't of Defense, 170 F. Supp. 2d 271, 275 (D. Conn. 2001) (finding declaration that does not describe "the scope and nature of the search conducted" to lack the required specificity).
Here, the Air Force's declarations are "relatively detailed and nonconclusory." Grand Cent. P'ship, Inc., 166 F.3d at 488-89. The Booher declaration specifies that the Air Force first searched the Civil Engineering Branch of the 88th Air Base Wing and the branch of the AFRL Directorate of Contracting that has primary responsibility for fuels-related issues at Wright-Patterson. This declaration identifies the particular search terms used by the AFRL Directorate of Contracting. (Booher Decl. ¶¶ 8-10.) Moreover, Booher states that following plaintiff's administrative appeal, the Air Force re-contacted the above-mentioned branches and expanded its search to a host of additional offices dealing with contracting, environmental, and public affairs matters. (Id. ¶¶ 13, 17-25.) According to his declaration, Booher also spoke with Harrison about Harrison's paper and electronic search for records, Harrison's communications with other staff members regarding the FOIA request, and the fact that the Air Force had not actually evaluated the Facility proposed by Baard Energy. (Id. ¶¶ 15-16.) Likewise, the Pellett declaration details a subsequent conversation that Pellett had with Harrison in order to clear up earlier confusion about Harrison's search for responsive records. Because the Air Force's declarations describe the scope and nature of a thorough search, they contain sufficient specificity.
3.Plaintiff's Tangible Evidence Does Not Create a Genuine Dispute of Material Fact as to the Adequacy of the Air Force's Search
Plaintiff argues that responsive documents it uncovered on its own and a contradiction in the Air Force's declarations demonstrate that the Air Force's search was inadequate. A court should not grant summary judgment where there is "tangible evidence" that creates a genuine dispute as to the adequacy of the agency's search. Carney, 19 F.3d at 812; see Valencia-Lucena v. U.S. Coast Guard, 180 F.3d 321, 326 (D.C. Cir. 1999) (summary judgment inappropriate "if a review of the record raises substantial doubt, particularly in view of . . . 'positive indications of overlooked materials'" (internal citation omitted)); see also Fed. R. Evid. 56(c)(4).
Here, plaintiff points to three sets of email exchanges suggesting the existence of additional responsive documents in the Air Force's possession and thus the inadequacy of the Air Force's search: (1) the 2009 emails between Harrison and Dopuch from Baard Energy regarding the Air Force's policy on alternative fuels; (2) the 2009 emails between Bollinger from DOD and Baardson from Baard Energy regarding Baardson's attendance at an Air Force energy forum; and (3) the 2007 emails-only recently turned over by the Air Force-between Dopuch and a Wright-Patterson employee regarding the carbon output of a Baard plant in Wellsville, Ohio and a DOD briefing on green energy. Indeed, these responsive records show that someone at Wright-Patterson-perhaps Harrison-was communicating with Baard Energy executives as early as 2007 about the proposed Facility.
Nonetheless, the mere existence of these records does not establish that the Air Force possesses additional records. Although plaintiff contends that the Air Force has failed to demonstrate that any purported deletion of records complied with the Air Force's Records Disposition Schedule, the issue of whether the Air Force complied with its own document retention policy is immaterial to the issue of whether the Air Force met its burden under FOIA. See Piper v. U.S. Dep't of Justice, 294 F. Supp. 2d 16, 22 (D.D.C. 2003) ("Even if the arguments concerning possible FBI violations of law regarding document destruction were taken as true, 'they do not establish that the defendant actually has possession of the [documents], which is a prerequisite for FOIA liability.'" (citing Folstad v. Bd. of Governors of the Fed. Reserve Sys., 234 F.3d 1268 (Table), 2000 WL 1648057, at *2 (6th Cir. 2000))). Moreover, the Air Force is under no obligation to locate every single record that could possibly exist. Grand Cent. P'ship, Inc., 166 F.3d at 489 ("When a plaintiff questions the adequacy of the search an agency made in order to satisfy its FOIA request, the factual question it raises is whether the search was reasonably calculated to discover the requested documents, not whether it actually uncovered every document extant." (citing SafeCard Services, Inc. v. S.E.C., 926 F.2d 1197, 1201 (D.C. Cir. 1991))).
Finally, the NRDC contends that the Air Force's declarations themselves provide tangible evidence that additional responsive records likely exist. Plaintiff is correct that the Air Force's declarations contain a contradiction. The Pellett declaration acknowledges an inaccuracy in the earlier Booher declaration. Although the Booher declaration stated that Harrison failed to identify any responsive records during the processing of the NRDC's administrative appeal, Harrison did in fact identify such records. In other words, the Pellett declaration admits that the Air Force made a mistake-the Air Force did not turn over responsive documents when it first should have.
But the Air Force subsequently did turn over those documents. That the Air Force confessed to a mistake in its initial declaration and then corrected that mistake does not render the search inadequate. An agency should be encouraged, rather than discouraged, to "reappraise its position, and when appropriate, release documents previously withheld." Meeropol v. Meese, 790 F.2d 942, 953 (D.C. Cir. 1986). Indeed, the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit has suggested that an agency should be trusted more, not less, when it admits to a mistake. Id. See also Lowy v. I.R.S., No. 10 Civ. 00767, 2011 WL 1211479, at *7 (N.D. Cal. Mar. 30, 2011) ("[T]he fact that additional searches were conducted by the IRS and additional responsive documents located after the inception of the litigation . . . does not entitle plaintiffs to relief on their claim that the search was deficient."); Richardson v. U.S. Dep't of Justice, 730 F. Supp. 2d 225, 231-22 (D.D.C. 2010) (rejecting argument that the agency's release of documents after the filing of a lawsuit is evidence of an inadequate search); cf. Meeropol, 790 F.2d at 952 (no bad faith based on the fact that after the FBI claimed to have completed its search, it uncovered responsive files because evidence of their existence was supplied by plaintiffs ).
There is nothing in the record to impugn the Air Force's latest declaration or to suggest that the Air Force failed to contact a particular individual or search a particular location likely to possess responsive records. Accordingly, based on the competent and sufficiently detailed declarations from Booher and Pellett, the Court concludes that the Air Force's search was

Rated 5 out of 5 by Timepressedshopper Excellent results A friend recommended evening primrose oil, but other brands all had gelatine capsules. I found this and decided to give it a go. I can't believe the results! I feel loads better and I am only taking one capsule per day. It may be co-incidence, but I don't really want to stop taking them now. My hairdresser commented on the fact that my hair was in excellent condition, which I think might also be due to these capsules. I've never been a great one for supplements, but I would recommend giving these a try. 11 May 2014

Diner Rating and ReviewsBack to detail
Based on 1 reviews
A Mughlai menu with focus on Lucknowi goodness, the food is rich and quite heavy (even the vegetarian) and portions are generous. The Galouti Kebab, made as tradition demands, with finely minced mutton and Haleem, the Hyderabadi dish made with pounded mutton, were both outstanding. The piece de resistance is the Lucknavi Raan, a melt-in-the-mouth leg of mutton. Try the Paneer Khurchan and the Dhingri Dolma. Do not leave without indulging in some sinful dessert like the Malpua and homemade Rabadi and the Kulfi.
Critic reviews are anonymous and all bills are paid by them.
The place was very well located in The Phoenix City Mall. The place was totally occupied and this was the place where we spent our first minutes of this new year, Dining! We had to wait for 30 minutes before we got a place there. Once seated we got a good look on the inside. The place had a Bar in the corner and the Kitchen was also nearby. The fumes from the kitchen and all the sizzlers that the people ordered had filled the restaurant. It was a little uncomfortable without the exhaust. I ordered Tomato Shorba for all of us and my wife ordered veg Jalfrezi with garlic nan and Dahi kebabs. The food was pretty decent and tasty. It was well presented. The star of the attraction was the Shorba which was very flavorful. The decor was ok and the service was just about ok as i had to ask a number of times for attention..

Note: Sample below may appear distorted but all corresponding word document files contain proper formattingExcerpt from essay:
In this rgard, Atchinson and Lewis (2003) report that, "Electronic forms of news dissemination include multimedia 'webcasts', e-zines, news alert services, news tickers, e-journals and (we)blogs, newsgroups, personalized news trackers and email. Stylistic conventions are emerging for these various forms, but common trends can be discerned." "Compression is carried even further online, driven by the tiny window on the vast information landscape. Paragraphs often consist of a single idea in a single sentence. Salient ideas may be expressed by bulleted lists of noun phrases rather than in clauses. Tables, charts and graphs are common."
Nevertheless, some observers suggest that in spite of the dynamic nature of the online environment today, some formal rules should still be followed to ensure that everyone agrees on the shared meaning of words and idiomatic phrases. In this regard, Stockwell and Minkova (2001) report that, "American phoneticians and lexicographers in general use a slightly different set of symbols from those used by European phoneticians. The important thing to understand is that phonetic symbols are arbitrary, codified, representations of language sounds. Any well-defined system is, in principle, as good as any other."
Alas, the well-defined system that has shaped up over the centuries for "officially" adding words to the working vernacular by their inclusion in a recognized dictionary is not up to the task today. According to Stockwell and Minkova, "The language is constantly changing, constantly in flux, and dictionaries must stay current - i.e., not more than ten to fifteen years out of date. The turnover rate is fairly shocking." These authors cite as a primary example of the rapidity with which the English language is changing today the 1977 edition of the Chambers Twentieth Century Dictionary which issued a supplement to its 1972 edition that included the following new additions to the vernacular: catch 22, database, day care, digital clock, floating currency, gang-bang, greenhouse effect, hype, liquid crystal display, modem, Ms., pixel, safari park, sitcom, skateboard, skinflick, tunnel vision, up-market, voice-over, yucky, zap, zero in on, zilch, zip code, zonked.
It is conceivable that an entire conversation could be formulated using all of these "new" words today, but such a verbal feat would not have been possible just a few decades ago because these words did not even exist. As Stockwell and Minkova emphasize, "These words are so much part of British as well as American vocabulary today that it is difficult to imagine that the parents of the current college student generation would not have been familiar with them. Yet they became dictionary-worthy in the UK only between 1972 and 1977!" These authors suggest that the increasingly rapid pace of new word development will mean that dictionaries may follow newspapers down the "print is dead" path as more and more people resort to online sources for their dictionary definitions.
According to Stockwell and Minkova, despite attempts by various dictionary publishers to update their compilations more frequently, the task has become akin to drinking from a fire hose. As a result, some dictionary publishers are turning to digital and CD/DVD-based updates to keep their collection current. As these authors conclude, "It now appears likely anyway that the updating of the future will be done on computer disks and/or CD-ROMs. This is relatively easy and relatively cheap. As we all move into cyberspace, the conventional printed dictionary may become one of the casualties, and we'll simply check in at a Web site (or, unfortunately, more likely a dozen Web sites) for the latest lexicographical information."
Taken together, these trends suggest that lexicographers will no longer represent the final arbiters of what is and what is not an "acceptable" word for inclusion in the working vocabulary of a society, but rather the preponderance of what meaning collective communities of like-minded users assign to a given word or idiomatic phrase in online environments rather than the traditional face-to-face exchanges that have been the source of new words in the past. This observation is congruent with Aitchinson and Lewis who note that, "Internet communication promotes the development of multiple ties: links that arise between people on the basis of their work, their interests or their specialisms, and result in peer-group communities. This type of link calls for neither public nor private discourse styles, but for a range of styles to bridge the published/unpublished divide."
Summary and Conclusion
The research showed that humans have been searching for mutually agreeable definitions for words and idiomatic phrases since time immemorial, and the first words used by humankind have been lost in the mists of time. The research also showed that the first dictionary was published in the 17th century, but only contained about 3,000 entries. By sharp contrast, the Second Edition of the Oxford English Dictionary (1989) contained full entries for more than 400,000 words, including definitions (some of which run to a full page or more) for hundreds of thousands of words in current use, as well as almost 50,000 additional entries for words regarded as obsolete; beyond these entries, there are also almost 10,000 derivative words included as subentries.
Just a half century ago or so, etymologists and lexicographers collaborated with each other primarily, but also the general public as well by soliciting their input on what new words they felt should be included in new dictionary editions. Nevertheless, these scholars represents the final say of what new words would qualify for inclusion into the working vernacular by virtue of being added to their "official" compilation of what was regarded as an acceptable word. Today, though, these stodgy gatherings of academicians are being replaced by collaborative online communities that are not only redefining how words become words, they are providing the definitions for these new words as well. Whether an "official" or otherwise formal process for codifying new words into the working vernacular is a desirable thing likely depends on who is being asked, and who is doing the asking. While it is apparent that there is an inherent value in maintaining current dictionary definitions in a rapidly changing and increasingly multicultural society, dictionary publishers no longer enjoy the luxury of being able to debate the fine points over whether a word should be included in a new edition or not because by the time they reach a decision in the traditional fashion, the word may already be obsolete or replaced or modified by countless other new words and idiomatic phrases. In the future, words and idioms will be "hooked up" with the world by like-minded communities of people from all over the world who come together in online environments and will be compelled to develop mutually acceptable terms for use in ways that mirror the face-to-face processes of old, but in much more accelerated ways.

), there is far more to their use than simple memorization. Instead, as English moves into a lingua franca situation in global economics and politics, students of English need to understand idioms in order to respond and understand context as well as fact.

For the most part, I would probably not want to work at Cisco. The convoluted structure devalues individual responsibility, which to my mind removes incentive for individual excellence.

The reaction on the part of the community of language researchers has ranged between the grudging acceptance that some multiple word collocation do exist in the lexicon, and the lexicon re-conceptualized as incorporating elements from all levels of linguistic structure. "According to this second view idiomatic expressions represent one end of a continuum which places highly analyzable and semantically decomposable utterances at one end, and highly specified, semantically opaque
In addition to vocabulary shaped by environment, different languages also develop arbitrary differences in idiomatic expression. For just one example, modern Hebrew has a word pronounced "dafkuh" that does not translate directly into English. It is used to denote "just at that time," or "exactly that person," or "that very day" in a manner that suggests either irony, coincidence, misfortune, or even sarcasm, in the following manner: "I knew someone

Having unnecessary fat in different locations of your body can have a considerable influence on your health and self-esteem. While conventional weight-loss through workout and diet is a great method to reduce weight overall, even the very best workouts cannot target issue areas like the tummy, inner thighs, arms, and buttocks. Liposuction is a time checked treatment that is utilized to get rid of excess fat from particular areas of the body, permitting a specific to form and contour their body to their taste. Is liposuction right for you? Discover now.
Pros of Liposuction
There are lots of advantages to this cosmetic procedure, including:
• Instantly noticeable changes. Unlike conventional weight reduction, liposuction develops changes that are immediately visible in the body. Some distinction is visible immediately, and the desired outcomes are normally accomplished in simply a few days.
• Proven and safe. This cosmetic treatment has been carried out by skilled surgeons all over the world for years and the method has been improved over and once again to be safe and reliable.
• Recovery time is generally quick.

My hubby sees his GF about 3 - 4 times a week, sometimes just briefly for coffee or dinner or something and 1 - 2 of those days are overnight visits.
I see my BF almost everyday, even if only for a few minutes. We both work in the same area so he often swings by my store just to say hello
I spend 1 - 2 nights per week at his place.
As of May 22nd however, my BF is moving into the suite downstairs so we will see each other alot more often! We've agreed to keep the over night visits reasonable :P It's going to feel like NRE all over again, I'm sure
It's definitely 'calming' to be able to have some contact with both of them everyday, even if it's a text or email or phone call.

This is Big Paws! He is a very friendly fellow who wandered into a Marlboro backyard. He is about 3 years old and has 7 toes on each of his front paws and an extra toe on each of his back paws. Big Paws loves to be around people and enjoys being pet and brushed. He is also very playful and inquisitive. He is up to date on his vaccinations and already neutered. He tested negative for feline leukemia but is FIV+. He does not get along with other cats so he will have to be the only cat in the house. Not sure if he would get along with other animals. If you would like only one cat or pet, please consider giving this young boy a happy home! For more information about FIV please see this website: http://www.catdepot.org/resources/library/fiv-positive-cats.aspx. If you are interested in adopting or meeting this kitty please call Eileen at 732-549-1270. There are other cats/kittens available for adoption at the Petsmart on Route 9 South in Manalapan, NJ. The adoption room is located in the back of the store, behind the dog food aisles, on the right hand side.

Last year, many considered the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 to be a disappointment. It wasn't a clear upgrade from the Samsung Galaxy Note 4. This year, Samsung isn't taking any chances.

Wedding in Marisol
This was my second trip and wow it was better than the first. Great spot to have a wedding with all family and friends. The beach and sand perfect. The pool always clean and the hot tub soaked away a soothing day in the sun. You can take snorkel trips or go right out in the bay, tons of coral and tropical fish. For the adventurers out there try a day out fishing for Marlin. I caught a trophy fish 2nd week of May. The fishing is great. The staff is awesome, food even better and with air conditioning, WiFi and satellite TV you will feel at home when the sand gets washed off in the 5 full bathrooms. I will pay for many many more trips here, favorite spot in Mexico!
Impossible to beat this
What a stunning setting! We couldn't have asked for a better place to spend our vacation. Kids were entertained by the pool, hot-tub, beach, sand, and fire-pit. Surprised to find spectacular snorkeling just off the beach including coral and all sorts of tropical fish. Chartered a fishing boat which picked us up right at the property. Chef America and Vicky cooked for us a few times (they also bought the groceries and did the dishes!). Sergio took good care of us and even made a couple trips to the store to pick up a few things we needed.
Secluded, quiet location but still walking distance to two restaurants. We will be back.
9 years in a row!
I travel to the Sea of Cortez a couple of times per year. I have brought a group of guys to these waters to fish for the last 13 years. We discovered Villa Mirasol 9 years ago and hav stayed nowhere else since! The house, location, and staff are simply amazing. Sergio is the house manager. We feel like we have become family. His wife, America (and Vicky too), prepare delicious meals for us daily. We are a group of 10 guys and with the 7 beds in the 5 bedrooms at Villa Mirasol we thought a few of us would be roughing it. Not the case at all! They have numerous bed-height cots with thick integrated pads that they make up with sheets and blankets. They are just as comfortable as a bed.
The location is ideal for our needs. The house feels right on the water, but is actually a one minute walk from the shore, perfectly situated. The views are stunning. We fish most days and we meet our captains with their pangas just down the beach by the restaurant. It's a super easy morning trip to the boat launch.
We all feel sad each time we depart Villa Mirasol in Bahia de Los Muertos, but we start planning our teturn trip to the Baja as soon as we get home!
The Bay of Dreams!!!
Our stay at Villa Mirasol was a dream. We have never been on a more fun, relaxing, exhilarating, vacation. From snorkeling, walking on the (empty) beach, to catching a 35 pound Dorado on the Sea of Cortez, the vacation made us want to return again and again. Photos cannot do the idyllic setting justice. With two great restaurants close-by and the option of in-house cooking (my recommendation), Villa Mirasol leaves no detail unattended. We will return as soon as possible!
Relaxing, Rejuvenating Trip of a Lifetime!
We enjoyed everything about our stay at Villa Mirasol. It is completely worth the travel time & expense from the airport, because you arrive and the pristine, gorgeous, secreted bay opens up to your view. The suites are well-appointed, private and comfortable. Lovely gathering spaces and wonderful pool & hot tub. The beach and ocean are incredible (go swimming at night and experience the bioluminescence magic!) The chefs create incredibly fresh, delicious, authentic food. What a find! For activity & adventure, the thrilling snorkeling right from our beach, Kayaking, paddle boarding, beach volleyball, hikes, walks and deep sea fishing fit the bill! The pleasure of having nothing more pressing than a beach chair, a lemonade and a good book was equally luring and satisfying. We vacationed with dear friends this trip, and can't wait to return with our family!
True Vacation!
This is our second time vacationing at the Villa Mirasol and there's a reason for that. The pictures cannot do justice to the setting that you find yourself in when you walk into Villa Mirasol. It is a wonderful slice of heaven and a place to truly relax and enjoy a perfect vacation from the fast pace of life. The water is warm, and the beach is perfect, and you have it all to yourself! The staff is wonderful and eager to please. They take great care of you and you want for nothing. The grounds are well kept and the food is AMAZING! I would not book this without involving the chef. Definitely a favorite place when it comes to vacationing… and we've been on many.
