/**
 * @fileOverview Very simple personal log demo application to demonstrate angular functionality,
 *               especially:
 *               - the MVC model
 *               - testability of controllers
 *               - dependency injection for controllers via $inject and constructor function
 *               - $cookieStore for persistent cookie-backed storage
 *               - simple templating constructs such as ng-repeat and {{}}
 *               - date filter
 *               - and binding onSubmit and onClick events to angular expressions
