The financial aid for the majority of colleges is very difficult. Penn State doesn't give too many financial aid options.
Campus Housing:
The cost is on the pricy side but the dorms aren't that bad. The worst place to live especially for Freshmen is in East halls. The rest West, North, South, and Pollock are all equally good.
The Catabus is very convenient. There are 4 links that are free. The only bad thing is that they stop at 2 in the morning and this is inconvenient especially on weekends.
Party Scene:
The majority of the nightlife is in the frats until you turn 21 when you can go to the bars.
Off-Campus Housing:
The downtown area is extremely close to campus. There are a lot of apartments available but they are tend to be very expensive.
The program is very difficult, but it definitely pays off in the end. They do a great job of preparing you for future jobs.
To officially enter my major you have to take 6 prerequisites and earn a C or higher in the classes. In the spring semester of your sophomore year you apply to enter the major after taking those 6 classes, and have to have higher than a 3.0 GPA.
Health & Safety:
The campus overall is pretty safe. It is an open campus, so there is always the possibility of strangers coming on campus.
It gets very cold throughout the year. It can get a little annoying, but you get used to it eventually.
Greek Life:
Greek life is huge at Penn State. It some times tends to be a little bubble and some people make it their everything, but then there are other people who enjoy it but also interact and get involved in other activities.
Drug Safety:
Many students do partake in alcohol and drug usage. In my personal opinion, there really isn't much peer pressure to do something you don't want to do.
Penn State is extremely diverse. There are people from all around the world, from different cultures and ethnicities. The school is very accepting overall and allows all of us to be united regardless of background.
The engineering program is truly one of a kind. Even though it can be very difficult as times, I know the hard work will pay off in the end. There are a variety of resources and different internship positions made available for the students.
Health & Safety:
There are emergency services and police that are always ready, but for the most part the school is guarded by "auxillary police" who are fellow students trained to report wrong-doing to the real police. It is a slow system that really just works to catch drunk students and look intimidating for large events such as concerts and THON.
The registration process is easy, teachers vary though, many teachers with many teaching styles teach the same subjects for introductory classes especially. There is a heavy workload, as with every college. Popular study areas are engineering and business.
The forensic science program is more exclusive than others, so the qualifications are stricter. Express an interest in science, not CSI TV shows.
Once you are in the program, you are very close witht he other students and faculty who will provide endless support a logn as you work hard and show respect.
Campus Housing:
The housing process is easy and affordable, but definitely not for everyone. The typical dorm is relatively small but with a lot of storage space, heated (not air conditioned), and chances are your neighbors will be loud.
I once asked for help finding scholarships and was told "to look around". Most scholarships are academic rather than need based, thereby are only really offered to the honors college.
Off-Campus Dining:
It is a very student friendly off-campus dining environment.
There are computer labs everywhere and wireless is currently being installed in dorms.
It is a cold harsh winter for 75% of the year.
The campus is strict where it needs to be. Generally, the students are well trusted, though action is taken when they prove themselves to be untrustworthy, as with alcohol and drug use.
Penn State prides itself on it's reputation for a diverse campus, accepting of all people, regardless of race, religion, sexuality, etc.
The campus buses typically get filled very easily.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Despite common reservations about the location and climate, most Penn State students are fiercely loyal to their alma mater. Penn State boasts one of the largest alumni populations in the United States; graduates are proud of their degrees, and employers recognize the University's name immediately. Although the campus is located in a very rural area, school is technologically up-to-date and on the cutting-edge of current research.
Aside from academics, PSU is also known for its social scene, especially in relation to sports and parties. Nittany Lion football—home of the 2008 Big Ten Champions—is a national draw and a point of pride for both the University and the town of State College. For anyone interested in playing or watching varsity sports, PSU is a top choice. Penn State has also been ranked highly by many polls and "party school" surveys as one of the top party schools in the nation. While it certainly isn't the wildest town, these rankings are definitely accurate. The small-town setting and large-school atmosphere makes for little else in the way of entertainment, so it can be hard to avoid encountering the party scene during your time as a student. Still, the mix of work and leisure seems to work well for most of the student body, and academic standards at Penn State remain relatively high. It's easy to spend four years at Penn State as an ever-serious student, focused completely on whatever you choose to study. With so many opportunities to relax nearby, balance and moderation are some of the best skills to learn from your four years in college.

I'd like to know how to pass data between a Service and an Activity without broadcastReceiver.
This is what I can't make:
- I have a Service that periodically sends an intent via broadcast.
- I want to get the extras of this intent from an activity when I want, without wait a broadcast receiver.
I tried to use this code:
String BROADCAST_ACTION = "ACTION";
Intent sendToUI = new Intent(BROADCAST_ACTION);
sendToUI.putExtra("key", "value");
IntentFilter iF = new IntentFilter(MyService.BROADCAST_ACTION);
Intent intent = c.registerReceiver(null, iF);
Bundle extras = intent.getExtras();
if(extras != null){
String string = intent.getStringExtra("key");
But I get a
nullpointerexception because
intent is always
null (I get
nullpointerexception NOT in Bundle extras BUT IN
Intent intent LINE).

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

The International Olympic Committee was set to decide Sunday on whether to ban Russia from the Rio Games over state-run doping, an unprecedented move that could spark the Olympic movement's worst crisis in decades. According to an independent report from the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), Russia's sports ministry directed a vast doping programme with support from the FSB intelligence agency. More than 30 sports were affected by the cheating that went on during the 2014 Sochi Games and other major events, said the WADA report released last week by Canadian law professor Richard McLaren.
South-east Asian foreign ministers will hold crunch talks in communist Laos on Sunday at a summit already overshadowed by infighting over Beijing's sabre rattling in the South China Sea. The gathering in Vientiane is the first major regional talks since the UN-backed tribunal ruled earlier this month that China did not have historic rights to vast swathes of the strategic sea. US Secretary of State John Kerry, who arrives in Laos on Monday, and Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi are among the delegates attending meetings on the sidelines of the summit.
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Wildfires burned out of control Saturday in mountains north of Los Angeles and near Big Sur on California's scenic Central Coast, posing a threat to 2,000 homes and a sanctuary for exotic animals that was being evacuated, authorities said.

I love this little robin! Isn't he the perfect choice for you to make today? Darling bookmark :-)

Here's something that might sound strange. Today, while playing the puzzle game "Mushroom Man" — a great throwback to old PC games like "Chip's Challenge" — I noticed how similar one of the levels was to a solving a programming contest question. In level 113 "Don't Drink the Water," there is a large number of water tiles and only a limited amount of oxygen available to cross those tiles. At one point, I found myself on a spot where all paths left me exactly 1 oxygen short. Eventually, I needed to work backwards, counting the tiles to look for a solution. The shape of the level — a 10×10 grid with the goal in the corner — reminded me a lot of a dynamic programming solution where you would fill in a 2D integer array.
Dynamic Programming?
The origin of the term dynamic programming has very little to do with writing code. It was first coined by Richard Bellman in the 1950s, a time when computer programming was an esoteric activity practiced by so few people as to not even merit a name. Back then programming meant "planning," and "dynamic programming" was conceived to optimally plan multistage processes.
– https://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~vazirani/algorithms/chap6.pdf
Dynamic programming is about breaking a large problem into sub-problems, and using those sub-solutions to find the large solution. While you could write a DP solution recursively, it's usually much more efficient to start with the smallest problem, and iteratively build up to the large one. A lot of the classic examples, such as the longest subsequence problem, can be solved by building a 2-dimensional table. For that reason, I like to think of DP algorithms as table-building.
This level is a great candidate for table-building because it has practically no obstacles and the few that exist can be ignored (the pink jellybeans can be pushed aside, and the purple teleporters only serve to force you along a certain path at the very start). It also doesn't feature a lot of different items or dependencies, so it doesn't require any backtracking (e.g. to find the best order to acquire items). Overall, it's one of the easier levels.

Half-Life the FPS that won over 50 "Game of the Year" awards is now polished with many new effects like simple shadows, bloom, particles, HD textures, and new models will bring back the fun of this great game from 1998.
Nice mod, I really like the idea of full use of detail textures system, and the addition of the HL:Rebirth Engine.
Good things:
Totally new engine, featuring realistic movements & pain reception (such as ringing ears), adjustable bloom, advanced particle system, shadows, enhanced simple physics, and a totally balanced arsenal wich incudes a new weapon.
Bad things (yes, there's bad things):
Sometimes the bloom is too much bright to the player's eye, causing the user quit it, and... without the bloom we can appreciate some errors.
The realistic movements can annoy some people, making them quit the effect, but that's the bad thing, this feature cannot be disable trought the console and the options menu.
There's A LOT of bugs, on the ladders, scientist, save archives, Islave, and the has not end.
Overall review:
Ambience (models-sprites-sounds): Most of the models are from the Sven Coop Team, but I'll not complaing about this, they are a very good rated models set. The reskin of the arms are very detailed and they suprides me, they aim a lot to Black mesa source (If you see some images).
This mod is totally recommended for people who is newbie in Half-Life and for people who likes more graphics than gameplay (A.K.A GraphicWhores) It's a good mod, and a very nice try of enhance Half life gameplay, but half life is half life DUDE!!
It looks good and it was fun! However I did encounter bugs and crashes. The only thing that wasn't really changed was the tram sequence. For that, I'll give it a 9/10.
Yeah one of the best hl mod pushing it further graphic wise.
Addional weapons from Op4 is a good bonus.
The bobbing realistic view really annoys me though it can't be turn off via the option menu so I've been spending time to turn it off via config.cfg but no luck so far.
Version 2 was the best.
Great mod, would have given it a 10/10, had it not been for some bugs.
One bug in particular, was at the level 'Power Up', where the gate would not open, so I was stuck, unable to kill the gargantua.
Other than that (and not being able to even witness the Xen levels), awesome mod. It's definitely worth the time to download and play.
Done by a hypocritical idiot who goes around moddb, spamming and saying stupid ****. The mod itself is okay at best.
Just awsome. No words can describe the awsomeness . It may be not
be like Black Mesa source But its close.Did i mention the npcs have
pysics even thou the mod is no Source .
Amazing Redux! One of the greatest I have ever seen (and im not just talking about Half Life in general.) A couple of miner bugs but the overall quality and look (not to mention feel) is amazing!
Not too bad, but it doesn't really feel like HL.
THIS IS SPAR- wait what? I mean COOL!
