The Institute for College Access and Success
The Institute for College Access and Success (TICAS) is a non-profit organization founded by Lauren Asher and Robert Shireman in 2005 that works to make higher education more available and affordable for people in the United States. Headquartered in Oakland, California, with a satellite office in Washington D.C., it conducts research, analysis, and provides advocacy. Its work has been cited by USA Today, Forbes, U.S. News & World Report, and The Atlantic.

The Institute staffs the Project on Student Debt, and produces an annual report on student debt in the U.S. used by journalists and others needing the most recent data on higher education.
Standard Grade
Standard Grades were Scotland's educational qualifications for students aged around 14 to 16 years. Introduced in 1986, the Grades were replaced in 2013 with the Scottish Qualifications Authority's National exams in a major shake-up of Scotland's education system as part of the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework overhaul.

Scottish Standard Grades roughly matched the English, Welsh and Northern Irish General Certificate of Secondary Education examinations in terms of level subject content and cognitive difficulty.

Higher (Scottish)
In the Scottish secondary education system, the Higher (Scottish Gaelic: Àrd Ìre) is one of the national school-leaving certificate exams and university entrance qualifications of the Scottish Qualifications Certificate (SQC) offered by Qualifications Scotland. It superseded the old Higher Grade on the Scottish Certificate of Education (SCE). Both are normally referred to simply as "Highers".

The modern Higher is Level 6 on the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework.
Sky High (TV series)
Sky High (スカイハイ, Sukai Hai) (also known as Skyhigh) is a live-action, supernatural Japanese television drama series, starring actress and model, Yumiko Shaku.  It aired in Japan, first run, from 2003 to 2004, and was popular enough to spawn the 2003 feature film of the same name (produced while the series was still in production and starring the same actress).  Both are based on the Japanese manga, Skyhigh.  Shaku stars as Izuko, the Guardian of the Gate to the afterlife.

The basic premise, the protagonist must use her powers to guide the dead on their journey to the afterlife by helping them determine the meaning or circumstance of their death.  However, in Izuko's case, no matter how hard she tries, her guidance does not always result in a happy ending.

Sky High (2003 film)
Sky High (スカイハイ; also known as Skyhigh) is a Japanese supernatural action film from director Ryuhei Kitamura. It is based on the manga of the same title by Tsutomu Takahashi and serves as a prequel to a Japanese television drama of the same name, and starring the same actress, Yumiko Shaku.

Although the film is a prequel to the series, the film was made while the series was still in production, sometime between the first and second seasons.  The film had a clear effect on the direction of the second season, as evidenced in the look and style of Mina/Izuko's second season costuming—more similar to the darker, edgier look she sports in the film, as opposed to the softer, colourful, kimono-like outfit of the first season.  The film reveals how the somewhat meek Mina became the heroic Izuko, as seen in the series (and the film’s action climax).
Slot 1
Slot 1 refers to the physical and electrical specification for the connector used by some of Intel's P6 microarchitecture processors, including the Pentium Pro, Celeron, Pentium II and the Pentium III.  Both single and dual processor configurations were implemented.

Intel reverted to the traditional socket interface with the release of Socket 370 in 1999.

Pentium III
The Pentium III (marketed as Intel Pentium III Processor, informally PIII or P3) brand refers to Intel's 32-bit x86 desktop and mobile CPUs based on the sixth-generation P6 microarchitecture introduced on February 28, 1999.

The brand's initial processors were very similar to the earlier Pentium II-branded processors. The most notable differences were the addition of the Streaming SIMD Extensions (SSE) instruction set (to accelerate floating point and parallel calculations), and the introduction of a controversial serial number embedded in the chip during manufacturing (absent on Tualatin and later Intel processors).

Even after the release of the Pentium 4 in late 2000, the Pentium III continued to be produced with new models introduced up until early 2003. They were then discontinued in April 2004 for desktop units and May 2007 for mobile units.

Intel officially declared end-of-life and discontinued Pentium III processors on July 14, 2009.
V visa
The V visa was a temporary United States visa available to spouses and minor children (unmarried, under 21) of US lawful permanent residents (LPR, also known as green card holders). It allowed permanent residents to join their spouses and children while the immigration process took its course. The visa was created by the Legal Immigration Family Equity Act of 2000. The act relieved those who applied for immigrant visas on or before December 21, 2000. The V visa is not available to spouses and minor children of LPRs who applied after December 21, 2000.

Legal Immigration Family Equity Act
The Legal Immigration Family Equity Act of 2000, also known as the LIFE Act and as the Legal Immigration and Family Equity Act, along with its Amendments, made some changes to laws surrounding immigration for family members of United States citizens and Lawful Permanent Residents, as well as people eligible for employment-based immigrant visas, in the direction of making it easier for family members and immigrant workers to move to and adjust status within the United States. It was passed on December 21, 2000, as title XI of Pub. L. 106–553 (text) (PDF).

Afghan Girl
Afghan Girl is a 1984 photographic portrait of Sharbat Gula, an Afghan refugee in Pakistan during the Soviet–Afghan War. The photograph, taken by American photojournalist Steve McCurry near the Pakistani city of Peshawar, appeared on the June 1985 cover of National Geographic. While the portrait's subject initially remained unknown, she was identified by early 2002: Gula, an ethnic Pashtun from Afghanistan's Nangarhar Province, was a 12-year-old child residing in Pakistan's Nasir Bagh.

In light of the Cold War, the portrait was described as the "First World's Third World Mona Lisa" in reference to the famous 16th-century portrait painting of the same name by Leonardo da Vinci. Gula's image became "emblematic" in some social circles as the "refugee girl/woman located in some distant camp" that was deserving of compassion from the Western viewer, and also as a symbol of Afghanistan to the West. CNN called it the 'world's most famous photograph'.
Joel McCormack
Joel McCormack is an American computer scientist who designed the NCR Corporation version of the p-code machine, which is a kind of stack machine popular in the 1970s as the preferred way to implement new computing architectures and languages such as Pascal and BCPL. The NCR design shares no common architecture with the Pascal MicroEngine designed by Western Digital but both were meant to execute the UCSD p-System.[1,2]

The Bone Forest
The Bone Forest is a collection of fantasy short stories by British writer Robert Holdstock, published in 1991 (UK) and 1992 (US). It opens with a novella of the same name, followed by seven short stories.  The novella is a prequel to the entire Mythago Wood cycle.  According to the author it was written "to fill in the background and back-story to Mythago Wood" at the request of a screenwriter who was working on a planned movie version of Mythago Wood.

The 1991 and 1992 editions of the book contain seven short stories in addition to the novella The Bone Forest., after which the volume takes its name.  The additional stories in The Bone Forest bear little relation with either time or events in the Mythago Wood cycle, yet the short stories are largely influenced by the fantasy realm created as part of the Mythago Wood cycle.

The Bone Forest has both won and been nominated for fantasy literature awards.
