The document summarizes the methodology of a survey conducted by the Community Service Society regarding New York City residents' support for using MTA subway car purchases to incentivize local hiring and training targeted at low-income New Yorkers. The survey was administered by phone to 1,717 NYC adults from July to August 2016. It included oversampling of low-income residents and cell phone users. The results showed strong bipartisan support, with two-thirds overall and 60% strongly favoring using MTA funds for local hiring and training opportunities for low-income New Yorkers.

Uno de los grandes misterios del cristianismo es la encarnación. Además de la evidente connotación que tiene el hecho que Dios se haga hombre, la importancia salvífica de la encarnación debería ser un tema que demande un amplio estudio.
Si nos enfocamos netamente en el proceso de encarnación del Dios inconmensurable en la pequeña criatura de Belén, las preguntas surgen en nuestras mentes como un torrente que necesita ser encauzado. La forma en que las naturalezas divina y humana estaban “organizadas” en Cristo requiere de agudizar los sentidos y dedicar nuestros mejores recursos intelectuales para tratar de entender este asunto, hasta la medida en la que ha sido revelado.
Una cosa es absolutamente segura, Jesús fue simultáneamente hombre (sin ventajas sobre nosotros para enfrentar la tentación) y al mismo tiempo Dios. Por otro lado, el hecho maravilloso que Cristo mantendrá nuestra naturaleza humana por la eternidad, como una garantía para la humanidad que Dios cumplirá su promesa es uno de los temas complementarios que requieren también ser estudiados. No podemos dejar de mencionar el riesgo que asumió la Divinidad al decidir, desde la eternidad, el plan de salvar al hombre… arriesgándolo todo.
En un mundo donde el sacrificio personal en beneficio de otros es cada vez menos frecuente y tampoco comprendido, presentar el sacrificio máximo que Dios hizo al colocar a su Hijo en este mundo, para que luego enfrentara la muerte vicaria, debería llenar los corazones de los hombres de eterna gratitud. Espero que este estudio pueda contribuir a ello.
This chapter presents intermediate results from the OpenEdu study, carried out by DG JRC IPTS on behalf of DG EAC. It argues that open education goes beyond MOOCs and OER. It demonstrates this by proposing dimensions that are key for an understanding of open education and for the further development of open education by HE institutions in Europe. In addition, results from three of the main studies of OpenEdu are taken to discuss the motivations and barriers for opening up education by HE institutions (OpenCases), the uptake of open education in five European countries (OpenSurvey) and recognition and assessment practices in MOOCs (OpenCred).

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

Q: The MTA plans on purchasing hundreds of new subway cars. Do you favor or oppose ensuring that public funding for
these purchases includes incentives for training and local hiring especially for low-income workers so that more of the jobs
created by these purchases go to low-income New Yorkers or are you not sure?
Support for using MTA subway car purchases for local hiring and
training—targeted to low-income New Yorkers—cuts across income
lines. Two-thirds favor the idea overall; 60% strongly favor it.

The Community Service Society designed this survey in collaboration with Lake Research Partners, who
administered the survey by phone using professional interviewers. The survey was conducted from July 5th to
August 10th, 2016.
The survey reached a total of 1,717 New York City residents, age 18 or older, divided into two samples:
•1,079 low-income residents (up to 200% of federal poverty standards, or FPL) comprise the first sample:
– 479 poor respondents, from households earning at or below 100% FPL
– 600 near-poor respondents, from households earning 101% - 200% FPL
•638 moderate- and higher-income residents (above 200% FPL) comprise the second sample:
– 432 moderate-income respondents, from households earning 201% - 400% FPL
– 206 higher-income respondents, from households earning above 400% FPL
•This year’s survey also included an oversample of 655 cell phone interviews among adult residents at
up to 400% FPL.
Telephone numbers for the low-income sample were drawn using random digit dial (RDD) among exchanges in
census tracts with an average annual income of no more than $40,000. Telephone numbers for the higher
income sample were drawn using RDD in exchanges in the remaining census tracts. The data were weighted
slightly by income level, gender, region, age, and race in order to ensure that it accurately reflects the
demographic configuration of these populations. Interviews were conducted in English, Spanish, and Chinese.
In interpreting survey results, all sample surveys are subject to possible sampling error; that is, the results of a
survey may differ from those which would be obtained if the entire population were interviewed. The size of the
sampling error depends on both the total number of respondents in the survey and the percentage distribution of
responses to a particular question. The margin of error for the low income component is 3.0%. The margin of
error for the higher income component is 3.9%. The margin of error for the entire sample is +/- 2.36 percentage
points.
