Stylus is a very popular css preprocessor, with lots features like extending class, creating mixins, importing spreadsheets and setting variables. Let’s check out the basics of stylus and get into css programming.
Installation and Setup
Stylus is hosted in github and can be easily installed using NPM package manager:
$ npm install stylus -g
Stylus files are given .styl extension, can be placed anywhere in the project. Here I listed some useful usages options here. –watch option will automate compile your stylus to css, –compress option will compress css output. Also in project you can integrate stylus with gulp
$ stylus stylus/main.styl --out /css --compress
$ stylus --watch stylus/main.styl
Stlyus Syntax Basics
Let’s review some basics syntax. It show features like
- variable setting
- mixin calls
- loop iterator
- extend existing class
/* Set a basic variable */
base-font-size = 12px
/* Set a variable based on result of mixin call */
body-background = invert(#ccc)
/* Set some basic rules */
body
color #333
background #fff
/* Nest rules */
nav
margin 10px
ul
list-style-type none
> li
display inline-block
&.current
background-color lightblue
/* Use calculated values */
div.column
margin-right (grid-spacing / 2)
margin-top (grid-spacing * 2)
/* Use an already-set value for this element */
div.center-column
width 200px
margin-left -(@width / 2)
/* Get styles for this element from the result of a mixin */
.promo
apply-promo-styles()
apply-width-center(400px)
/* Iterate over a loop! */
table
for row in 1 2 3 4 5
tr:nth-child({row})
height: 10px * row
/* or.... */
for row in (1..5)
tr:nth-child({row})
height: 10px * row
/* Import another Stylus stylesheet */
@import 'links.styl'
/* Extend an existing class */
.warning
@extend .noticeBlock
Using Mixins
Mixins are incredibly useful within CSS preprocessors for a number of reasons. They allow us to use logic to generate CSS but they also allow us to organize our CSS.
/*
Basic mixin which vendorizes a propery. Usage:
vendorize(box-sizing, border-box)
*/
vendorize(property, value)
-webkit-{property} value
-moz-{property} value
-ms-{property} value
{property} value

public void register(Map map)This method should add an instance of the custom taglet to the map with the name of the taglet as the key. If overriding a taglet, to avoid a name conflict, the overridden taglet must be deleted from the map before an instance of the new taglet is added to the map.
It is recommended that the taglet throw an exception when it fails to register itself. The exception that it throws is up to the user.
Here are two sample taglets:

HTML is like a birthday card.  What this card needs to improve, is style. For this you would add colour, probably change the font etc. To change/edit style and appearance of HTML, you need CSS. While HTML is the main content, to edit it’s looks you use CSS.
Programming languages (such as Javascript) use flow control and loops to perform certain requirements when conditions are fulfilled. Control flow is the order that the computer executes statements in a script, while reading a script, control flow doesn’t just mean read from start to finish. However, you must look at the program structure to see how it affects order and execution. There are many different kinds of loops but what a loop basically does is repeat an action until a certain condition is fulfilled. I will use the example of a morning routine to explain control flow and loops: In the morning people tend to have a structure or a pattern they perform each morning to get ready, however, it isn’t always in the same order. IF/ELSE also applies to these conditional tasks. For example, before someone leaves to work they would have to perhaps ‘take a shower’, if they don’t do this they will probably smell/look bad. Typically, they would repeat this process everyday or in other words “loop” every morning. However, perhaps this someone only showers if he is leaving home, and today is his day off therefore he doesn’t require a shower. In relation to control flow, instead of reading a script from start to finish, look at the program structure to see how it affects any order of execution.
The DOM (Document Object Model) is a programming interface used for HTML documents. It represents a webpage as nodes and objects so that certain programming elements (like Javascript!) can make changes to the document, it’s style and it’s content. Javascript uses the DOM to manipulate elements inside of the HTML.
Objects and Arrays are important features in the Javascript programming language as they are both known as data sets. They both store data, but they both store it differently. Objects store collections of data, with each value being stored against a specific key. Names for these keys are specific of the data in an objects collection (the keys are names of the data). The bits of data can then be accessed by typing in the object and it’s key: objectName.Keyname.
Functions are sequences of code that is written (in Javascript and other programming languages) and can be used multiple times again.
What I believe emotional intelligence to be is ways to self-regulate/ monitor and
channel one's moods and emotions in order to be in optimal condtion when
performing tasks. Emotional intelligence also includes (though is not limited to)
understanding one's own strengths and weaknesses, values, goals and being practicing
resillience in times of pressure. Empathy also plays a huge role in emotional intelligence.

UGO Greener?
 Using wind, earth, and the sun to our advantage, we are making the planet a cleaner place; one home at a time. Energy derived from the Sun's radiation. Passive solar energy can be exploited through architectural design, as by positioning windows to allow sunlight to enter and help heat a space. Active solar energy involves the conversion of sunlight to electrical energy, especially in solar (photovoltaic) cells. Fuel produced from renewable resources, especially plant biomass, vegetable oils, and treated municipal and industrial wastes. Biofuels are considered neutral with respect to the emission of carbon dioxide because the carbon dioxide given off by burning them is balanced by the carbon dioxide absorbed by the plants that are grown to produce them.

“HCI is complicated, with radically differring languages and where communication can only exist within frames of come compromises”
they relate aesthetics to motivation, expert knowledge, comprehensive comprehension (they call it overcoming the problem of induction), software reliability (cause maintainability)
they focus on intellectual aesthetics, the aesthetics of learning and education (example of geometry as beautiful logic for plato)
what is beautiful makes sense.
more rigor = more beauty??
the recurring phrase for aesthetics in science is simplicity and vastness
the question they ask is: can we use aesthetic appreciation as a sign of knowledge?
aesthetic and science are linked through intuition, combining information and imagination when making purposeful decisions regarding meaning and pleasure
Furthermore, aesthetic appreciation is a sign of motivation for continuous improvement of both code and education – the quest for elegance is one for optimality, since in algebraic aesthetics beauty is recognized as perfection. Desire for beauty leads to striving for excellence. Aesthetic feeling is an intrinsic reward for programming efforts and can significantly accelerate goal-related learning and external reward intake
there is teaching beauty, and there is teaching beauty in relation to computer programs

Glossary
of Terms
Award
Letter
In the springtime, the school(s) to which the student has been accepted will
issue their Award Letter(s). The Award Letter lists all the aid the student
is eligible for and what the Expected Family
Contribution (EFC) is to be.
An official
document issued by a school's financial aid office that lists all of the
financial aid awarded to the student. This letter provides details on their
analysis of your Financial Need
and the breakdown of your financial aid package according to amount, source
and type of aid. The award letter will include the terms and conditions for
the financial aid and information about the cost of attendance. You are
required to sign a copy of the letter, indicating whether you accept or
decline each source of aid, and return it to the financial aid office. Some
schools call the award letter the "Financial Aid Notification".
ACT
The ACT is a college-entrance achievement test, comparable to the SAT, that is
administered by a private not-for-profit organization under the same name.
The ACT is typically used for college admissions, but it is also sometimes
used for class placement. The vast majority of colleges
treat the SAT and ACT the same. However, some do show a preference to
either test. The general rule is that coastal universities tend to prefer the
SAT, whereas Midwestern ones prefer the ACT.
Adjusted
Gross Income (AGI)
Adjusted Gross Income is a financial term to describe the amount used in the
calculation of an individual's income tax liability. This includes wages,
interest, income from retirement accounts, capital gains, or alimony
received, after certain adjustments are made (e.g. contributions to retirement
accounts, alimony paid), but before standardized and itemized deductions and
personal exemptions are applied. This amount is found on the last line of the
front page of IRS tax forms 1040 and 1040A.
Base
Year
The tax year prior to the academic year (award year) for which financial aid
is requested. The base year runs from January 1 of the junior year in high
school through December 31 of the senior year. Financial information from
this year is used to determine eligibility for financial aid.
CSS/PROFILE
The CSS/PROFILE is a supplemental financial aid form processed by the College
Scholarship Service (CSS) of the College
Board. The PROFILE is a financial aid form required by some private
colleges and universities. It helps colleges get a more overall picture of
your financial situation, so that they may appropriately give out their own
awards. This form is separate from any government form, such as the FAFSA. Be
aware that the College Board charges a fee to file this form.
Campus-based Aid
Financial aid programs are administered by the university. The federal
government provides the university with a fixed annual allocation, which is
awarded by the financial aid administrator to deserving students. Such
programs include the
Perkins Loan,
Supplemental
Education Opportunity Grant and Federal
Work-Study. Note that there is no guarantee that every eligible student
will receive financial aid through these programs, because the awards are
made from a fixed pool of money. This is a key difference between the
campus-based loan programs and the Direct Loan Program. Do not confuse the
two, even though both loans are issued through the schools.
Cancellation
Some loan programs provide for cancellation of loans under certain
circumstances, such as death or permanent disability of the borrower. Some of
the Federal student loan programs have additional cancellation provisions.
For example, if the student becomes a teacher in certain national shortage
areas, they may be eligible for cancellation of all or part of the balance of
their educational loans. Repayment assistance is available if you serve in
the military; the military pays off a portion of your loans for every year of
service.
Capitalization
The practice of adding unpaid interest charges to the principal balance of an
educational loan, thereby increasing the size of the loan. Interest is then
charged on the new balance, including both the unpaid principal and the
accrued interest. Capitalizing the interest increases the monthly payment and
the amount of money you will eventually have to repay. If you can afford to
pay the interest as it accrues, you are better off not capitalizing it.
Capitalization is sometimes called compounding. See also Unsubsidized
Loans.
College Board
A not-for-profit examination board and educational association of colleges,
universities, educational systems and other educational institutions. It is
known principally for managing standardized tests, such as the SAT, PSAT, CLEP, as
well as the subject-specific SAT II Subject Tests and Advanced
Placement tests, through ETS. The
College Scholarship Service (CSS) of the College Board administers the CSS/Profile
financial aid application.
College
Level Examination Program (CLEP)
A series of college-level subject tests offered by the
College
Board. CLEP subject exams usually correspond to introductory level
college courses, and for most tests a passing grade will result in the
granting of three or more credits by a college.
Community
Property
Community property laws specify that property is owned jointly by husband and
wife unless there is a specific agreement to the contrary (i.e., prenuptial
agreements). According to IRS Publication 555, the following is a list of
Community Property states: Arizona, California, Idaho, Louisiana, Nevada, New
Mexico, Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin. In addition, Alaska has its own
community property laws.
Commuter
Student
A student who lives at home and commutes to school every day, as opposed to
living on campus.
Compounded
Interest
Interest that is paid on both the principal balance of the loan and on any
accrued (unpaid) interest. Capitalizing the interest on an
Unsubsidized
Stafford
Loan is a form of compounding.
Consolidation Loan
(Also called Loan Consolidation) A loan that combines several student loans
into one bigger loan from a single lender. The consolidation loan is used to
pay off the balances on the other loans.
Cosigner
A cosigner on a loan assumes responsibility for the loan if the borrower
should fail to repay it.
Cost
of Attendance (COA)
(Also known as the cost of education or "budget") The total amount
it should cost the student to go to school, including tuition and fees, room
and board, allowances for books and supplies, transportation, and personal
and incidental expenses. Loan fees, if applicable, may also be included in
the COA. Child care and expenses for disabilities may also be included at the
discretion of the financial aid administrator. Schools establish different standard
budget amounts for students living on-campus and off-campus, married and
unmarried students and in-state and out-of-state students.
Custodial
Parent
If a student's parents are divorced or separated, the custodial parent is the
one with whom the student lived the most during the past 12 months. The
student's
need
analysis is based on financial information supplied by the custodial
parent.
Default
A loan is in default when the borrower fails to pay several regular
installments on time (i.e., payments overdue by 180 days) or otherwise fails
to meet the terms and conditions of the loan. If you default on a loan, the
university, the holder of the loan, the state government and the federal
government can take legal action to recover the money, including
garnishing
your wages and withholding income tax refunds. Defaulting on a government
loan will make you ineligible for future federal financial aid, unless a
satisfactory repayment schedule is arranged, and can affect your credit
rating.
Deferment
Occurs when a borrower is allowed to postpone repaying the loan. If you have
a subsidized
loan, the federal government pays the interest charges during the
deferment period. If you have an unsubsidized
loan, you are responsible for the interest that accrues during the
deferment period. You can still postpone paying the interest charges by capitalizing
the interest, which increases the size of the loan. Most federal loan
programs allow students to defer their loans while they are in school at
least half time. If you don't qualify for a deferment, you may be able to get
a forbearance.
Delinquent
If the borrower fails to make a payment on time, the borrower is considered
delinquent and late fees may be charged. If the borrower misses several
payments, the loan goes into default.
Dependency
Status
Determines to what degree a student has access to parent financial resources.
Dependent
Student
For a child or other person to be considered your dependent, they must live
with you and you must provide them with more than half of their support for
that year. Spouses do not count as dependents in the
Federal Methodology.
Divorced parents cannot both claim the same child as a dependent. See also
Independent
Student.
Direct
Loans
The William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program (aka the Direct Loan Program)
is a federal program where the school becomes the lending agency and manages
the funds directly, with the federal government providing the loan funds. Not
all schools currently participate in this program. Benefits of the program
include a faster turnaround time and less bureaucracy than the old "bank
loan" program. The terms for Direct Loans are the same as for the
Stafford Loan
program. For more information about Direct Loans, contact the Direct Loan
Servicing Center at 1-800-848-0979.
Disbursement
The release of loan funds to the school for delivery to the borrower. The
payment will be made co-payable to the student and the school. Loan funds are
first credited to the student's account for payment of tuition, fees, room
and board and other school charges. Any excess funds are then paid to the
student in cash or by check. Unless the loan amount is under $500, the
disbursement will be made in at least two equal installments.
Discharge
To release the borrower from his or her obligation to repay the loan. See
also
Cancellation.
Disclosure
Statement
Provides the borrower with information about the actual cost of the loan,
including the interest rate, origination, insurance, loan fees and any other
types of finance charges. Lenders are required to provide the borrower with a
disclosure statement before issuing a loan.
Due
Diligence
If a borrower fails to make payments on their loan according to the terms of
the promissory note, the federal government requires the lender, holder or
servicer of the loan to make frequent attempts to contact the borrower (via
telephone and mail) to encourage him or her to repay the loan and make
arrangements to resolve the delinquency.
Early
Action (EA)
A program with earlier deadlines and earlier notification dates than the
regular admissions process. Students who apply to an Early Action program do
not commit to attending the school if admitted, unlike an early decision
program. Ivy League schools do not allow you to apply EA to more than one Ivy
school. See also Early Decision.
Early
Decision (ED)
A program with earlier deadlines and earlier notification dates than the
regular admissions process. Students who apply to an Early Decision program
commit to attending the school if admitted (thus, one can apply ED to only
one school). Unfortunately, this means the student has accepted the offer of
admission before they find out about the financial aid package. A student
should only participate in an Early Decision program if the school is their
first choice and the student won't want to consider other schools.See also
Early Action.
Educational
Testing Service (ETS)
The world's largest private educational testing and measurement organization.
A non-profit company contracted by the College
Board to produce and administer standardized examinations, such as the SAT, PSAT, CLEP, and
other educational achievement tests.
Electronic
Funds Transfer (EFT)
Used by some schools and lenders to wire funds for
Stafford
and PLUS
loans directly to participating schools without requiring an intermediate
check for the student to endorse. The money is transferred electronically
instead of using paper, and hence is available to the student sooner. If you
have a choice of funds transfer methods, use EFT.
Eligible
Non-Citizen
Someone who is not a US citizen but is nevertheless eligible for Federal
student aid. Eligible non-citizens include US permanent residents who are
holders of valid green cards, US nationals, holders of form I-94 who have
been granted refugee or asylum status and certain other non-citizens.
Non-citizens who hold a student visa or an exchange visitor visa are not
eligible for Federal student aid.
Emancipated
Student
A student who has been released from the control of a parent or guardian.
Declaring a child to be legally emancipated is not sufficient to release the
parents or legal guardians from being responsible for providing for the
student's education. If this were the case, then every parent would
"divorce" their children before sending them to college. The criteria for a student to be found
Independent
is
much stricter. See Dependency
Status.
Endowment
Funds owned by an institution and invested to produce income to support the
operation of the institution. Many educational institutions use a portion of
their endowment income for financial aid. A school with a larger ratio of
endowment per student is more likely to give larger financial aid packages.
Enrollment
Status
An indication of whether you are a full-time or part-time student. Generally
you must be enrolled at least half-time (and in some cases full-time) to
qualify for financial aid.
Entitlement
Entitlement programs award funds to all qualified applicants. The
Pell Grant
is an example of such a program.
Exit
Interview
See Loan Interviews.
Expanded
Lending Option (ELO)
Under ELO, some schools can offer higher annual and cumulative loan limits to
students receiving the Perkins Loan.
The ELO is restricted to schools with a Perkins Loan default rate of 15% or
less.
Expected
Family Contribution (EFC)
The amount of money that the family is expected to be able to contribute to
the student's education, as determined by the
Federal Methodology
need analysis formula approved by Congress. The EFC includes the parent
contribution and the student contribution, and depends on the student's dependency
status, family size, number of family members in school, taxable and
nontaxable income and assets. The difference between the COA and the
EFC is the student's Financial Need,
and is used in determining the student's eligibility for need-based financial
aid. If you have unusual financial circumstances (such as high medical
expenses, loss of employment or death of a parent) that may affect your
ability to pay for your education, tell your financial aid administrator
(FAA). He or she can adjust the COA or EFC to compensate. See also Professional
Judgment.
Federal
Direct Student Loan Program (FDSLP)
Similar to the
Federal
Family Education Loan Program (FFELP). The funds for these loans are
provided by the US government directly to students and their parents through
their schools. Benefits of the program include a faster turn-around time and
less bureaucracy than the old "bank loan" program. The FDSLP
includes the Federal Direct Stafford Loan
(Subsidized
and Unsubsidized)
and the PLUS
loan program.
Federal
Family Education Loan Program (FFELP)
Includes the Federal Direct Stafford Loan
(Subsidized
and Unsubsidized),
Perkins
loans, and the PLUS loan
program. The funds for these loans are provided by private lenders, such
as banks, credit unions and savings & loan associations. These loans are
guaranteed against default by the federal government.
Federal
Methodology (FM)
The need
analysis formula used to determine the Expected Family
Contribution (EFC). The Federal Methodology takes family size, the number
of family members in college, taxable and nontaxable income and assets into
account. Unlike most Institutional
Methodologies, however, the Federal Methodology does not consider the net
value of the family's residence.
Federal
Processor
The organization that processes the information submitted on the
FAFSA and
uses it to compute eligibility for federal student aid. There are two
different federal processors serving specific geographic regions.
Federal
Work-Study (FWS)
Program providing undergraduate and graduate students with part-time
employment during the school year. The federal government pays a portion of
the student's salary, making it cheaper for departments and businesses to
hire the student. For this reason, work-study students often find it easier
to get a part-time job. Eligibility for FWS is based on need. Money earned
from a FWS job is not counted as income for the subsequent year's
need
analysis process.
Fellowship
A form of aid given to graduate students to help support their education.
Some fellowships include a tuition waiver or a payment to the university in
lieu of tuition. Most fellowships include a stipend to cover reasonable
living expenses (e.g., just above the poverty line). Fellowships are a form
of gift aid and do not have to be repaid.
Financial
Aid
Money provided to the student and the family to help them pay for the
student's education. Major forms of financial aid include gift aid (grants
and scholarships) and self-help aid (loans and work).
Financial
Aid Administrator (FAA)
A college or university employee who is involved in the administration of
financial aid. Some schools call FAAs "Financial Aid Advisors" or
"Financial Aid Counselors".
Financial
Aid Office
The college or university department that is responsible for the
determination of Financial Need
and the awarding of financial aid.
Financial
Aid Package
The complete collection of grants, scholarships, loans and
Federal Work-Study
employment from all sources (federal, state, institutional and private)
offered to a student to enable them to attend the college or university. Note
that Unsubsidized
Stafford
Loans and f loans are not considered part of the financial aid package,
since these financing options are available to the family to help them meet
the EFC.
Financial
Need
The difference between the COA and the EFC is the
student's financial need. This is the gap between the cost of attending the
school and the student's resources. The financial aid package is based on the
amount of financial need. The process of determining a student's need is
known as need
analysis.
Cost of Attendance
(COA) - Expected
Family Contribution (EFC) = Financial Need
First-Time
Borrower
A first-year undergraduate student who has no unpaid loan balances
outstanding on the date he or she signs a promissory note for an educational
loan. First-time borrowers may be subjected to a delay in the disbursement of
the loan funds. The first loan payment is disbursed 30 days after the first
day of the enrollment period. If the student withdraws during the first 30
days of classes, the loan is canceled and does not need to be repaid.
Borrowers with existing loan balances aren't subject to this delay.
Fixed
Interest
In a fixed interest loan, the interest rate stays the same for the life of
the loan.
Forbearance
During a forbearance the lender allows the borrower
to temporarily postpone repaying the principal, but the interest charges continue
to accrue, even on subsidized
loans. The borrower must continue paying the interest charges during the
forbearance period. Forbearances are granted at the lender's discretion,
usually in cases of extreme financial hardship or other unusual circumstances
when the borrower does not qualify for a deferment. You can't receive a forbearance if your loan is in
default.
FAFSA
(Free Application for Federal Student Aid)
Form used to apply for Federal and State financial aid, including
Pell Grants
and all other need-based aid. Required by nearly all two- and four-year
colleges and universities.
Gapping
The practice of failing to meet a student's full demonstrated need. See
also
Unmet Need.
Garnishment
The practice of withholding a portion of a defaulted borrower's wages to
repay his or her loan, without their consent.
Gift
Aid
Financial aid, such as grants and scholarships, which does not need to be
repaid.
Grace
Period
A short time period after graduation during which the borrower is not
required to begin repaying his or her student loans. The grace period may
also kick in if the borrower leaves school for a reason other than graduation
or drops below half-time enrollment. Depending on the type of loan, you will
have a grace period of six months (Stafford Loans)
or nine months (Perkins Loans)
before you must start making payments on your student loans. PLUS loans
do not have a grace period.
Grade
Point Average (GPA)
An average of a student's grades, converted to a 4.0 scale (4.0 is an A, 3.0
is a B, and 2.0 is a C). Some schools use a 5.0 scale for the GPA.
Graduate
Assistantship
There are two types of graduate assistantships: teaching assistantships (TA)
and research assistantships (RA). TAs and RAs receive a full or partial
tuition waiver and a small living stipend. TAs are
required to perform teaching duties. RAs are required to perform research
duties, not necessarily related to the student's thesis research.
Graduate
Student
A student who is enrolled in a Masters or PhD program.
Graduated
Repayment
A schedule where the monthly payments are smaller at the start of the
repayment period and gradually become larger.
Grant
A type of financial aid based on Financial Need
that the student does not have to repay.
Guarantee
Agency or Guarantor
State agencies responsible for approving student loans and insuring them
against default. Guarantee agencies also oversee the student loan process and
enforce federal and state rules regarding student loans.
Guarantee
Fee
A small percentage of the loan that is paid to the guarantee agency to insure
the loan against default. The insurance fee is usually 1% of the loan amount
(and by law cannot exceed 3% of the loan amount).
Guaranteed
Student Loan (GSL)
See
Stafford
Loan.
Half-Time
Most financial aid programs require that the student be enrolled at least
half-time to be eligible for aid. Some programs require the student to be
enrolled full-time.
Health
Education Assistance Loan (HEAL)
A low interest loan administered by the US Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS). It is available to medical school students pursuing medicine,
osteopathy, dentistry, veterinary medicine, optometry, podiatry, clinical
psychology, health administration and public health. Undergraduate
pharmacology students are also eligible.
Health
Professions Student Loan (HPSL)
A low interest loan administered by the US Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS). It is now known as the Primary Care Loan (PCL).
In-State
Student
A student who has met the legal residency requirements for the state, and is
eligible for reduced in-state student tuition at public colleges and
universities in the state.
Earned Income
The amount of money received from employment (salary, wages, tips), and
Business or Farm income. See Unearned
Income.
Income
Contingent Repayment
Under an income contingent repayment schedule, the size of the monthly payments
depends on the income earned by the borrower. As the borrower's income
increases, so do the payments. The income contingent repayment plan is not
available for
PLUS
loans.
Independent
Student
An independent student is determined as at least on of the following: at
least 24 years old as of January 1 of the academic year, married, a graduate
or professional student, has a legal dependent other than a spouse, a veteran
of the US Armed Forces, or is an orphan or ward of the court (or was a ward
of the court until age 18). A parent refusing to provide support for their
student's education is not sufficient for the student to be declared
independent. See also Dependent
Student.
Installment
Loan
A consumer loan in which the principal and interest are repaid on a regular
(usually monthly) schedule. The payments are called "installments"
and are all for the same amount.
Institutional
Methodology (IM)
If a college or university uses its own formula to determine
Financial Need
for allocation of the school's own financial aid funds, the formula is
referred to as the Institutional Methodology.
Insurance
Fee
Fee passed on by the lender to the federal government as insurance against
default. Insurance fees are charged as the loan is disbursed, and typically
run to 1% of the amount disbursed. See also
Guarantee Fee.
Interest
Amount charged to the borrower for the privilege of using the lender's money.
Interest is usually calculated as a percentage of the principal balance of
the loan. The percentage rate may be fixed for the life of the loan, or it
may be variable, depending on the terms of the loan. All federal loans issued
since October, 1992 use variable interest rates that are pegged to the cost
of US Treasury Bills.
Internship
Part-time job during the academic year or the summer months in which a
student receives supervised practical training in a their
field. Internships are often very closely related to the student's academic
and career goals, and may serve as a precursor to professional employment.
Some internships provide very close supervision by a
mentor in an apprenticeship-like relationship. Some internships provide the
student with a stipend, some don't.
Lender
A bank, credit union, savings & loan association, or other financial
institution that provides funds to the student or parent for an educational
loan. Note: Some schools now participate in the Federal Direct Loan program
and no longer use a private lender, since loan funds are provided by the US
Government.
Leveraging
If a school offers a talented student extra financial aid, regardless of
need, the student is more likely to enroll. Leveraging is the controversial
practice of figuring out how much it will take to attract such students and
customizing aid offers to optimize the quality of the incoming class.
Loans
While it is the hope of every family to be able to cover the entire cost of
education with grants and scholarships (“free money”), the unfortunate
reality is that most families will have to borrow or use their assets to fund
higher education. The rule of thumb for families is grab all the “free money”
available, and then borrow wisely. The three federal loan programs are often
a great way to borrow wisely. Although there are alternatives, these programs
offer the best terms and easiest qualification for most families.
Perkins Loan
The Perkins Loan is the most affordable federal loan since it has the lowest
interest rate (5%) and fees. However, the Perkins Loan is only available to
families based on need; so if the government doesn't offer it on the SAR, you
can't get it. It also has a $4,000 limit and is borrowed in the student's
name without respect to credit worthiness.
Stafford Loan
The Stafford Loan is also borrowed in the student's name. A dependent
undergraduate student can borrow $3,500 for the first year; as a sophomore
$4,500; and as a junior or senior $5,500. Independent undergraduate students
receive additional eligibility for $4,000 for the first two years and $5,000
for the last two. The interest rate is variable yearly and capped at 8.25% --
lower than the
PLUS
loan but higher than the Perkins Loan.
Some of the interest may be subsidized
by the Federal Government for those who qualify. As with the Perkins Loan,
credit worthiness is not an issue.
PLUS Loan
The Parent Loan for Undergraduate Students (PLUS) is a loan for parents of
dependent undergraduate students. It has a slightly higher interest rate than
the Stafford
Loan, but is only limited in amount by the cost of education not already
covered by other forms of aid. For instance, if the cost of education at a
school is $25,000, and the student has already received $5,000 in other aid,
then the parent of the student may borrow the remaining $20,000 necessary to
cover the cost of schooling. The parent that borrows the money must only meet
federal minimum standards for credit worthiness to qualify.
Applying for Loans
The final step in the financial aid process is to apply for the loans for
which the family is eligible. Schools often send preprinted Perkins and
Stafford
Loan applications to the student in the award-letter package, but ask the
student to select a lender from a provided list. The student may either
choose one of the listed lenders or apply for private loans. PLUS-Loan
eligibility is normally not listed. When this is the case, a parent must
contact a lender to receive an application.
Loan
Forgiveness
The federal government cancels all or part of an educational loan because the
borrower meets certain criteria (e.g., is performing military or volunteer
service).
 During these counseling
sessions, called entrance and exit interviews, the FAA reviews the repayment
terms of the loan and the repayment schedule with the student.
Matriculate
A student matriculates in college when he or she enrolls in college for the
first time. A student who just started the freshman year in high school will
matriculate in four years. A newborn baby will matriculate in approximately
17 years.
Maturity
Date
The date when a loan comes due and must be repaid in full.
Merit-based
Financial aid that is merit-based depends on your academic, artistic or athletic
merit or some other criteria, and does not depend on the existence of
Financial Need.
Merit-based awards use your grades, test scores, hobbies and special talents
to determine your eligibility for scholarships.
National
Health Corps Scholarship (NHSC)
Scholarship program administered by the US Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS). It is available to medical students studying allopathic and
osteopathic medicine and to dental school students studying dentistry.
National
Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (NMSQT)
See
PSAT
.
National
Service Trust
President Clinton's national community service program. If you participate in
this program before attending school, the funds may be used to pay your
educational expenses. If you participate after graduating, the funds may be
used to repay your federal student loans. Eligible types of community service
include education, human services, the environment and public safety.
Need Analysis
The process of determining a student's Financial Need
by analyzing the financial information provided by the student and his or her
parents (and spouse, if any) on a financial aid form. The student must submit
a need analysis form to apply for need-based aid. Need analysis forms include
the FAFSA
and the CSS/PROFILE.
Need-Based
Aid
Financial aid that is need-based depends on your financial situation. Most
government sources of financial aid are need-based.
Need-Blind
Under need-blind admissions, the school decides whether to make an offer of
admission to a student without considering the student's financial situation.
Most schools use a need-blind admissions process. A few schools will use
financial need to decide whether to include marginal students in the wait
list.
Need-Sensitive
Under need-sensitive admissions, the school does take the student's financial
situation into account when deciding whether to admit an applicant. Some
schools use need-sensitive admissions when deciding to accept a borderline
student or to pull a student off of the waiting list.
Nursing
Student Loan (NSL)
A low interest loan administered by the US
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) and available to students enrolled in nursing programs.
Outside
Resource
Aid or benefits available because a student is in school and is counted after
need is determined. Outside scholarships, prepaid tuition plans and VA
educational benefits are examples of outside resources.
Outside Scholarship
A scholarship that comes from sources other than the school and the federal
or state government.
Out-of-State
Student
A student who has not met the legal residency requirements for the state, and
is often charged a higher tuition rate at public colleges and universities in
the state.
Overawards
A student who receives federal support may not receive awards totaling more
than $400 in excess of his or her financial need.
Packaging
The process of assembling a financial aid package.
Parent
Contribution (PC)
An estimate of the portion of your educational expenses that the federal
government believes your parents can afford. It is based on their income, the
number of parents earning income, assets, family size, the number of family
members currently attending a university and other relevant factors. Students
who qualify as independent are not expected to have a parent contribution.
Parent
Loans for Undergraduate Students (PLUS)
Federal loans available to parents of dependent undergraduate students to help
finance the child's education. Parents may borrow up to the full cost of
their children's education, less the amount of any other financial aid
received. PLUS Loans may be used to pay the
EFC. There is
a minimal credit check required for the PLUS loan, so a good credit history
is required. Check with your local bank to see if they participate in the
PLUS loan program. If your application for a PLUS loan is turned down, your
child may be eligible to borrow additional money under the Unsubsidized
Stafford
Loan program.
Pell
Grant
A federal grant that provides funds of up to $4,050 based on the student's
financial need.
Perkins
Loan
Formerly the National Direct Student Loan Program, the Perkins Loan allows
students to borrow up to $4,000/year (5 year max) for undergraduate school and
$6,000/year for graduate school (6 year max). The Perkins Loan has one of the
lowest interest rates and is awarded by the financial aid administrator to
students with exceptional financial need. The student must have applied for a
Pell Grant
to be eligible. The interest on the Perkins Loan is subsidized
while the student is in school.
Prepaid
Tuition Plan
A college savings plan that is guaranteed to rise in value at the same rate
as college tuition. For example, if a family purchases shares that are worth
half a year's tuition at a state college, they will always be worth half a
year's tuition, even 10 years later when tuition rates will have doubled.
Prepayment
Paying off all or part of a loan before it is due.
Principal
The amount of money borrowed or remaining unpaid on a loan. Interest is
charged as a percentage of the principal. Insurance and origination fees will
be deducted from this amount before disbursement.
Private
Loans
Education loan programs established by private lenders to supplement the
student and parent education loan programs available from federal and state
governments.
Professional
Judgment (PJ)
Certain discretion is delegated from the Dept. of Education to financial aid
administrators, especially for need-based federal aid programs. A financial
aid administrator can adjust the EFC, adjust
the COA,
or change the dependency
status (with documentation) when extenuating circumstances exist. For
example, if a parent becomes unemployed, disabled, or deceased, the FAA can
decide to use estimated income information for the award year instead of the
actual income figures from the base year.
Promissory
Note
The binding legal document that must be signed by the student borrower before
loan funds are disbursed by the lender. The promissory note states the terms
and conditions of the loan, including repayment schedule, interest rate,
deferment policy and cancellations. The student should keep this document
until the loan has been repaid.
Preliminary
Scholastic Assessment Test (PSAT/NMSQT)
The PSAT is taken during the junior year as practice for the
SAT. Scores
on the PSAT are used to select semi-finalists for the National Merit
Scholarship program.
Reach
School
A school where the average SAT/ACT scores of the freshman class and/or the
cost of the attendance is above what you believe you can get into or afford.
Every student should apply to at least one reach school. See also
Safety
School.
Renewable
Scholarships
A scholarship that is awarded for more than one year.  Some renewable scholarships will require the student to reapply
for the scholarship each year; others will just require a report on the
student's progress to a degree.
Repayment
Schedule
The repayment schedule discloses the monthly payment, interest rate, total
repayment obligation, payment due dates and the term of the loan.
Repayment
Term
The term of a loan is the period during which the borrower is required to
make payments on his or her loans. When the payments are made monthly, the
term is usually given as a number of payments or years.
Safety School
A school that will almost certainly admit the student, and which is
inexpensive enough that they you can afford to attend even they are awarded
little or no financial aid. Remember, however, that the college admissions
process is not predictable. Even "sure admits" are sometimes
rejected. Some students are admitted to all the schools to which they apply;
others are rejected by all the schools. To protect themself against the
latter scenario, a student should apply to at least one safety school. See
also Reach School.
Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP)
A student must make this in order to continue receiving federal aid. If a
student fails to maintain an academic standing consistent with the school's
SAP policy, they are unlikely to meet the school's graduation requirements.
Scholarship
A form of financial aid given to undergraduate students to help pay for their
education. Most scholarships are restricted to paying all or part of tuition
expenses, though some scholarships also cover room and board. Scholarships
are a form of gift aid and do not have to be repaid. Many scholarships are
restricted to students in specific courses of study or with academic,
athletic or artistic talent.
Scholarship Search Service
A service that charges a fee to compare the student's profile against a
database of scholarship programs. Few students who use a scholarship search
service actually win a scholarship.
Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT)
One of the two national standardized college entrance examinations used in
the US.
The other is the ACT. The SAT (previously
known as the Scholastic Aptitude Test) is administered by the College
Board
, via ETS. Most universities
require either the ACT or the SAT as part of an application for admission.
Self Help Aid
Financial aid in the form of loans and student employment. If every financial
aid package is required to include a minimum amount of self-help aid before
any gift aid is granted, that level is known as the self-help level. For
example, the self-help level will be $8,150 at MIT in 1995-96 (The Tech,
March 7, 1995, Vol. 115, No. 9, Page 1). MIT has one of the highest self-help
levels of private colleges and universities, with an average self-help level
of around $5,500 at the more expensive schools.
Service Academy
Either the US Military Academy at West Point, the US Naval Academy, the US
Air Force Academy, US Coast Guard Academy, or the US Merchant Marine Academy.
Admissions is highly selective, as students must be
nominated by their Congressional Representative in order to apply.
Servicer
An organization that collects payments on a loan and performs other
administrative tasks associated with maintaining a loan portfolio. Loan
servicers disburse loans funds, monitor loans while the borrowers are in
school, collect payments, process deferments and forbearances, respond to
borrower inquiries and ensure that the loans are administered in compliance
with federal regulations and guarantee agency requirements.
Simple Interest
Interest that is paid only on the principal balance of the loan and not on
any accrued interest. Most federal student loan programs offer simple
interest. Note, however, that capitalizing the interest on an unsubsidized Stafford loan
is a form of compounded interest.
Simplified Needs Test
If the parents have an adjusted
gross income
of less than $50,000 and every family member was eligible to
file an IRS Form 1040A or 1040EZ (or wasn't required to file a Federal income
tax return), the Federal Methodology
ignores assets when computing the EFC. If you filed a 1040
but weren't required to do so, you may be eligible for the simplified needs
test. Details on the eligibility requirements appear on the Simplified Needs
Test Chart. (Please note that starting in 2004, the AGI threshold for IRS
Form 1040A and IRS Form 1040EZ changed from $50,000 to $100,000.
Nevertheless, a threshold of $50,000 is still used for the simplified needs
test.)
Stafford Loans
Federal loans that come in two types, subsidized and unsubsidized
. Subsidized loans are
based on need; unsubsidized loans aren't. The interest on the subsidized
Stafford Loan is paid by the federal government while the student is in
school and during the 6 month grace period. The Subsidized Stafford Loan was
formerly known as the Guaranteed Student Loan (GSL). The Unsubsidized
Stafford Loan may be used to pay the EFC.
Undergraduates may borrow up to $24,500 ($3,500 during the
freshman year, $4,500 during the sophomore year and $5,500 during the third,
fourth and fifth years) and graduate students up to $65,500 including any
undergraduate Stafford loans ($8,500 per year). These limits are for
subsidized and unsubsidized loans combined. The difference between the
subsidized loan amount and the limit may be borrowed by the student as an
unsubsidized loan.
Higher unsubsidized Stafford loan limits are available to
independent students, dependent students whose parents were unable to obtain
a PLUS loan
and graduate/professional students. Undergraduates may borrow
up to $44,500 ($7,500 during the freshman year, $8,500 during the sophomore
year and $10,500 during each subsequent year) and graduate students up to
$138,500 including any undergraduate Stafford
loans ($18,500 per year with 8,500 subsidized per year ).
These limits are for subsidized and nsubsidized
loans combined. The
amounts of any subsidized loans are still subject to the lower limits.
Student Aid Report (SAR)
Report that summarizes the information included in the FAFSA
and must be provided
to your school's Financial Aid Office
. The SAR will also indicate the amount of Pell Grant
eligibility, if any, and the Expected Family Contribution
(EFC). You should receive a copy of your SAR within ten days after
the student's FAFSA is filed.
Student Contribution
The amount of money the federal government expects the student to contribute
to his or her education and is included as part of the EFC
. The student
contribution depends on the student's income and assets, but can vary from
school to school. Usually a student is expected to contribute about 20% of
his or her savings and approximately one-half of his summer earnings above
$2,550.
Subsidized Loan
With a subsidized loan, such as the
Perkins
Loan
or the Subsidized
Stafford
loan
, the government pays the interest on the loan while the student
is in school, during the six-month grace period and during any deferment
periods. Subsidized loans are awarded based on financial need and may not be
used to finance the family contribution. See also
Unsubsidized
Loan
.
Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant (SEOG)
Federal grant program for undergraduate students with exceptional need. SEOG
grants are awarded by the school's financial aid office, and provide up to
$4,000 per year. To qualify, a student must also be a recipient of a
Pell
Grant
.
Supplemental Loan for Students
Federal loans for financially independent students. This program was
eliminated in 1994 with the creation of the
Unsubsidized
Stafford Loan
program.
Term
The number of years (or months) during which the loan is to be repaid.
Test
of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL)
Most colleges and universities require international students to take the
TOEFL as part of their application for admission. The TOEFL evaluates a
student's ability to communicate in and understand English.
Undergraduate
Student
A student who is enrolled in a Bachelors program
Unearned
Income
This includes income from financial instruments (interest, dividends, capital
gains), or welfare, disability, child support, Social Security benefits, and
pensions.
Unmet
Need
In an ideal world, the Financial Aid
Office would be able to provide each student with the full difference
between their ability to pay and the cost of education. Due to budget
constraints the Financial
Aid Office may provide the student with less than the student's need.
This gap is known as the unmet need.
Unsecured
Loan
A loan not backed by collateral, representing a greater risk to the lender.
The lender may require a co-signer on the loan to reduce their risk. If you
default on the loan, the co-signer will be held responsible for repayment.
Most educational loans are unsecured loans. In the case of federal student
loans, the federal government guarantees repayment of the loans. Other
examples of unsecured loans include credit card charges and personal lines of
credit.
Unsubsidized
Loan
A loan for which the government does not pay the interest. The borrower is
responsible for the interest on an unsubsidized
loan loan from the date the loan is disbursed, even while the student is
still in school. Students may avoid paying the interest while they are in
school by capitalizing the interest, which increases the loan amount.
Unsubsidized loans are not based on financial need and may be used to finance
the family contribution. See also Subsidized
Loan.
Untaxed
Income
Contributions to IRAs, Keoghs, tax-sheltered annuities and 401k plans, as
well as worker's compensation and welfare benefits.
US
Department of Education
Government agency that administers several federal student financial aid
programs, including the Pell Grants,
the Federal
Work-Study Program, Perkins Loans,
Stafford
Loans, and Federal PLUS
Loans.
Variable
Interest
In a variable interest loan, the interest rate changes periodically. For
example, the interest rate might be pegged to the cost of US Treasury Bills
(e.g., T-Bill rate plus 3.1%) and be updated monthly, quarterly,
semi-annually or annually.
Verification
Verification is a review process in which the
Financial Aid
Office determines the accuracy of the information provided on the
student's financial aid application. During the verification process the
student and parent will be required to submit documentation for the amounts
listed (or not listed) on the financial aid application. Such documentation
may include signed copies of the most recent Federal and State income tax
returns for you, your spouse (if any) and your parents, proof of citizenship,
proof of registration with Selective Service, and copies of Social Security
benefit statements and W2 and 1099 forms, among other things.
Financial
aid applications are randomly selected by the Federal processor for
verification, with most schools verifying at least 1/3 of all applications.
If there is an asterisk next to the EFC figure on
your Student
Aid Report (SAR), that means that your SAR has
been selected for verification. Schools may select additional students for
verification if they suspect fraud. Some schools undergo 100% verification.
If any discrepancies are uncovered during verification, the financial aid
office may require additional information to clear up the discrepancies. Such
discrepancies may cause your final financial aid package to be different from
the initial package described on the award letter you received from the
school If you refuse to submit the required documentation, your financial aid
package will be cancelled and no aid awarded.
Veteran
For Federal financial aid purposes such as determining
dependency
status, a veteran is a former member of the US Armed Forces (Army, Navy,
Air Force, Marines, or Coast Guard) who served on active duty and was
discharged other than dishonorably (i.e., received an honorable or medical
discharge). You are a veteran even if you serve just one day on active duty--
not active duty for training-- before receiving your DD-214 and formal
discharge papers. (Note that in order for a veteran to be eligible for VA
educational benefits, they must have served for more than 180 consecutive
days on active duty before receiving an honorable discharge. There are
exceptions for participation in Desert Storm/Desert Shield and other military
campaigns.) ROTC cadets, members of the National Guard, and most reservists
are not considered veterans.
W2
Form
Employers are required by the IRS to issue a W2 form for each employee, which
lists an employee's wages and taxes withheld.
Ward
of the Court
A ward of the court is someone under the protection of the courts. The ward
of the court may have a guardian appointed by the court. The legal guardian
is not personally liable for the ward's expenses and is not liable to third
parties for the ward's debts. Although a ward of the court can have a legal
guardian, having a legal guardian does not automatically make the child a
ward of the court. A legal guardian can be appointed by parental consent
through a power of attorney. A legal guardian must have been appointed by the
court for the child to be a ward of the court. When a guardian is appointed
by the court, the parent no longer has the authority to revoke the
guardianship.
The key issue for financial aid purposes is that when a child
becomes a ward of the court, no parent or other person is financially
responsible for the child. Legal guardians and foster parents are not
financially responsible for a ward of the court. Adoptive parents, on the
other hand, are financially responsible for the child.

ovs-appctl-bashcomp.bash adds bash command-line completion support for ovs-appctl, ovs-dpctl, ovs-ofctl and ovsdb-tool commands.
display available completion or complete on unfinished user input (long option, subcommand, and argument).
once the subcommand (e.g. ofproto/trace) has been given, the script will print the subcommand format.
the script can convert between keywords like 'bridge/port/interface/dp' and the available record in ovsdb.
only support small set of important keywords (dp, datapath, bridge, switch, port, interface, iface).
does not support parsing of nested options (e.g. ovsdb-tool create [db [schema]]).
does not support expansion on repeatitive argument (e.g. ovs-dpctl show [dp...]).
only support matching on long options, and only in the format (–option [arg], i.e. should not use –option=[arg]).
ovs-vsctl-bashcomp.bash adds bash command-line completion support for ovs-vsctl command.
display available completion and complete on user input for global/local options, command, and argument.
query database and expand keywords like 'table/record/column/key' to available completions.
deal with argument relations like 'one and more', 'zero or one'.
complete multiple ovs-vsctl commands cascaded via '–'.
completion of very long ovs-vsctl command can take up to several seconds.
The bashcomp scripts should be placed at /etc/bash_completion.d/ to be available for all bash sessions. Running 'make install' will place the scripts to /bash_completion.d/. So user should specify –sysconfdir=/etc at configuration. Meanwhile, if OVS is installed from packages, the scripts will automatically be placed inside /etc/bash_completion.d/.
If you just want to run the scripts in one bash, you can remove them from /etc/bash_completion.d/ and run the scripts via '. ovs-appctl-bashcomp.bash' or '. ovs-vsctl-bashcomp.bash'.
Unit tests are added in tests/completion.at and integrated into autotest framework. To run the tests, just do make check.

Creating content
Writing Content
Every blog and website needs to have some content, so let’s cover how to do that.
Inside your Hugo folder, run hugo new posts/hello-world.md
. This’ll create a new folder called posts in your content directory, and put a file called hello-world.md in it.
If you’re not familiar with Markdown, it’s a markup language that’s commonly used to write and create rich content, and it’s the language that Hugo uses. It’s not very complicated, but here are some main points:
#
is a header, or H1 if you’re familiar with HTML.##
is a subheader, or H2. These go all the way down to######
, or H6.- You write content just like you normally do. Space paragraphs out with a newline in between, and create a line break with two spaces.
- Add lists by prefixing items with
-
or1.
-
produces an unordered list, while1.
creates an ordered list. (For the ordered list, prefix the next items with2.
,3.
, etc.) - Add links by using the
[text](link)
syntax, and images with![alt text](path to image)
. - Add code by surrounding a block in three backticks ```, or inline with one `.
More information can be found on this great cheatsheet by Adam Pritchard.
That being said, you’ll notice that when editing the file that there’s some information automatically added. Don’t worry about that for now - that’s frontmatter, or metadata, in other words. It controls some fine-tuning customizations we’ll investigate soon.
One example of this frontmatter is the line:
draft: true
which makes it so that hugo server
won’t actually build your files. Change this to:
draft: false
so hugo server
knows to build these files.
For now, edit your hello-world.md file, and once done, try previewing your site with hugo server
. Navigate to localhost:1313/posts/hello-world/
, and it should appear!


WeAreHear is a location-based, memory sharing app. It allows users to send a custom text to a friend to remind them of a memory by sharing a map of a memorable location, with a song and a photo tied to the memory. The app was built for a final group project at Dev Bootcamp. We created it using Ruby on Rails for the back end and HTML, CSS, Tachyons, Javascript, and JQuery for the front end.
We worked as a team to plan out the core functionality of the site. We wanted users to be able to send a "bouquet" of memories (consisting of a song, location, and photo) to friends and loved ones in order to invoke happy memories of memorable occasion, which would allow people stay connected in a new way. We wanted users to be able to view a list of bouquets that they have sent, as well as a list of most popular songs other users have sent, and a heatmap showing the selected lcations of the bouquets have been sent worldwide. We decided to use the Spotify API to allow users to search for and select songs, and the Google Maps API to allow users to select locations.
I utilized the Carrierwave gem to allow users to upload a photo which could be included in their custom text. I created the form which allowed users to create a new boquet. I styled the upload button to match the rest of the site's design. Once uploaded, the image is stored in Cloudinary, a cloud service for storing images.
I implemented the Twilio API which enabled the app to send the text with information gathered from the database along with the uploaded photo directly to their friend's phone. I created the texts model and controller, and added code in the bouquet model and controller to successfully implement the API.
Form for new text message:
Texts Model
Texts Controller
Bouquet Model
Bouquet Controller
Our ultimate goal would be to enable location-based text messages which would send the user a text if they walked past the location that the sender selected in the memory "bouquet", so that users receive a real-time reminder of a happy memory when they are in the location where the memory took place.

The Sacred Datura is a member of the nightshade family (which also includes tobacco, and food crops such as potatoes, tomatoes and chile peppers). Datura is a perennial herb which grows from a tuberous root to 2-5 feet in height and 3-6 feet in width. It has dark green leaves which grows to 6 inches long and are oval or heart shaped.
Datura is commonly found in washes and roadsides at elevations from 1000 to 6000 feet and begins flowering in mid to late summer.
The flower is large.....the largest native flower to Utah (5-6 inches in diameter and 6-8 inches in length). They open around dusk and stay open throughout the next day. The flowers are followed by a 2 inch round prickly seed pod.
The Sacred Datura contains numerous toxic alkaloids. All parts of this plant are very poisonous if ingested.
Native Americans used this plant for ceremonial purposes to induce visions, many of them dying in the process.
This beautiful flower can be found growing in numerous locations throughout Red Butte Garden and in the yards of many flower gardens in Salt Lake City.

A logical variable is a term introduced by a universal or existential quantifier.
Logical variables in Ivy are always written as lexical variables, that is as tokens beginning with a capital letter (eg. X
, Foo
, P123
).
A free logical variable (occurring outside of any quantifier) is implicitly universally quantified. Some forms of declarations and statements make use of this as an abbreviation.
A logical variable should not be confused with a state variable:
- State variables are ground terms themselves, that represent the possible targets of assignment statements, as actions execute.
- Logical variables are placeholders for ground terms in a first-order logic formula.
Example:
Suppose we have the formulas
type t
type u
var s:t
function f(X:t): u
The type t
is a ground term, as is the type u
.
The declared variable s
is a state variable and is also a ground term of type t
.
The function f
is an uninterpreted function without a definition, so is also a state variable. The function symbol f
on its own is a ground term, but a quantified formula like forall X. f(X)
is not a ground term because it contains a logical variable X
.
An application of f
to a ground term, like f(s)
, is a ground term of type u
.
In a formula with an explicit logical variable such as:
forall V:t. V = s
We have a new logical variable V
which may range over ground terms of type t
, such as s
or f(s)
. That is, the formula may be instantiated as s = s
or f(s) = s
, each of which is a ground term of type bool
.
