* Module Class
*
* This is a parent class that all PICKLES modules should be extending.
* Each module can specify it's own meta data and whether or not a user
* must be properly authenticated to view the page. Currently any pages
* without a template are treated as pages being requested via AJAX and the
* return will be JSON encoded. In the future this may need to be changed
* out for logic that allows the requested module to specify what display
* type(s) it can use.

* module must be instantiated before the code is executed so that the
