As the government cannot charge for the vast majority of FOIA requests, the consequence of this ill-conceived proposal would be either an unnecessary dent in EOIR's operating budget or lengthy, unacceptable, and inexcusable backlogging of FOIA requests. Alan Lee, Esq.
The personal essence is a descriptive concept of a individual's vital or life force. Vital force is considered the primary force of all forces. It is the divine creative intelligence. When the personal essence is strong and in harmony with the individual there is health. Imbalance, lack of harmony or coherence in the personal essence is a precursor (even an actual cause) of subsequent disease.
Essence is whatever most sums up the heart and soul of something, its truest most indispensable qualities. The essence of Las Vegas is poker chips and dreams; the essence of Johnny Cash is black clothing and country music. Essence can be a physical detail, or, just as commonly, the abstract idea or meaning of something. The essence of Lady Chatterly's Lover might be its revolutionary eroticism, or the essence of religion its devotion to God. Essence can also mean the concentrate obtained from a flower or plant for flavoring.
