The 2009-10 Private School Universe Survey (PSS 2009-10) is a study that is part of the Private School Universe Survey program. PSS 2009-10 (http://nces.ed.gov/surveys/pss/) is a cross-sectional survey that builds an accurate and complete universe of private schools to serve as a sampling frame for NCES surveys of private schools and generates biennial data on the total number of private schools, teachers, and students. The study was conducted using surveys of administrative personnel. A universe of private schools extant in October 2009 was built. The study�s response rate was 93.6 percent. Key statistics produced from PSS 2009-10 are religious orientation, level of school, length of school year, length of year and school day, total enrollment (K-12), race/ethnicity of students, number of high school graduates, number of teachers employed, program emphasis, and existence and type of kindergarten program.

<p>&nbsp;</p><p>One of NASA&#39;s strategic goals is to extend and sustain human activities across the solar system. With time delays and potentially sparse communications back to Earth, astronauts may have to perform life-saving surgery without support from the Earth based flight control team. Medical crew training is a complex and labor-intensive process. Due to the large and diverse set of possible medical conditions, crew medical training focuses on the most likely medical scenarios that may occur in the current mission profiles, with less emphasis on rarer, or unforeseen health related events. The need for good training and the access to large amounts of documentation areconditions making the use of Augmented Reality (AR) techniques most promising. Also, the use of medical AR for crew training could enhance effectiveness, and expand the repertoire of available on-mission aids while minimizing resource utilization saving time, money and potentially improving outcomes.</p>

HUD's Multifamily Housing property portfolio consist primarily of rental housing properties with five or more dwelling units such as apartments or town houses, but can also be nursing homes, hospitals, elderly housing, mobile home parks, retirement service centers, and occasionally vacant land. The portfolio can be broken down into two basic categories: insured and assisted. This layer depicts the latter category, HUDs assisted Multifamily portfolio. HUD provides subsidies and grants to property owners and developers designed to promote the development and preservation of affordable rental units for low-income populations and those with special needs, such as the elderly and disabled. The three largest assistance programs for Multifamily housing are Section 8 Project Based Assistance, Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly, and Section 811 Supportive Housing for Persons with Disabilities. The Multifamily property locations depicted in this map service represent the approximate location of the property. The locations of individual buildings associated with each property are not depicted here. Generally speaking, the location of the property is derived from the primary address on file.

The Clean Water Act (CWA) establishes the basic structure for regulating discharges of pollutants into U.S. waters and regulating quality standards for surface waters. The basis of the CWA was enacted in 1948 and was called the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, but the Act was significantly reorganized and expanded in 1972. "Clean Water Act" became the Act's common name through amendments in 1977. The CWA's goal is to restore and maintain the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of the Nation's waters.
