The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Questioning (“LGBTQ+”) community lacks explicit statutory protections from discrimination in financial services. After the Supreme Court held in Bostock that employment discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity was illegal, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) issued an informal interpretive rule for the Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA) and Regulation B that made discrimination in the access to credit based on sexual orientation or gender identity illegal.

Abstract:
The current construction industry, which has a high accident rate and declining labor productivity, urgently requires efficient and practical management policies. Research has shown that social norms within informal groups have considerable influence on construction workers, while studies on informal groups of construction workers (IGCWs) have been scarce. Current theories of informal groups have not been analyzed in combination with construction industry characteristics.

Abstract:
Globally, hazards are increasingly threatening housing each year, and housing constructed outside the formal sector may be particularly vulnerable. Yet, limited studies have investigated the perceptions of those responsible for designing and building this housing. These safety perceptions motivate the informal housing construction practices that ultimately determine housing safety. Thus, this study investigates the multi-hazard housing safety perceptions of individuals involved with housing construction in Puerto Rico.

After the fall of communism in Eastern and Southeastern Europe in 1989 the countries that had been under socialist rule underwent a process of political, economical and social reforms and changes.

In this context new approaches to planning arose, as did new challenges and problems, such as the phenomenon of informal and unplanned settlements.

Abstract:
This chapter presents the results of the geoarchaeological analysis of the PPNA earthen constructions at Klimonas. It mainly concerns the southern half of the Communal building (St 10), its perimeter wall and sedimentary fills. The complexity of the stratigraphy and the exclusive use of earthen materials for the construction made the application of a geoarchaeological study necessary, using soil micromorphology as the main tool. It revealed that the walls and benches for both communal and domestic buildings were built using cob. The floors were characterised either as substructures or constructed floors. These categories were characterised by two types of entities: constructed floors could be formal or informal floors, while substructures could be embankment or stony floors. In both, walls and floors, the raw material was of local origin, pinpointing the exploitation of local resources. The St 10 fill comprised different floors corresponding to four occupation phases. The identification of different micromorphological features led us to characterise the use of space of each occupation phase. Generally, the space seems to have been used for food preparation and consumption, though spaces of infrequent use were also identified for the second occupation phase.

It is shown that the negative directive ðe mu les? construction is used as a discourse marker that signals disjunctive topic change and displays specific prosodic properties, which are partly inherited from polar interrogatives and offer frames for the interpretation of the construction in talk-in-interaction. The study enhances our understanding of the ways in which prosody pairs with constructions and contributes to action formation.

Abstract:
The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) has designed and constructed thousands of acres of ecosystem restoration features within the Upper Mississippi River System. Many of these projects incorporate island construction to restore geomorphic diversity and habitat, including floodplain forests. Soils are the foundation of the ecological function and successful establishment of floodplain forests as they are the basis through which plants obtain water and nutrients and provide critical ecosystem services. To improve floodplain forest island restoration outcomes, three natural and four recently (&

Abstract:
A 2019 survey conducted by the Associated General Contractors of America, prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, found that construction firms across the country are struggling to fill open positions. Eighty percent of survey respondents indicated they have difficulty filling jobs in occupations that are essential to highway construction. This includes heavy equipment operators, cement masons, and iron workers, among others. This workforce shortage in California will become more problematic as public agencies and their contractors seek to implement projects funded by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL

This creative thinking skill development framework addresses challenges associated with teaching and assessing creative thinking. It provides a definition of creative thinking and describes this construct as it applies in classroom-based learning. The framework synthesises and harmonises existing theory and research on creative thinking and outlines creative thinking processes along prescribed strands and aspects that are informed by evidence. The strands contained within the framework are 1. Generating ideas; 2. Experimenting with ideas; and 3. Identifying the quality of ideas. The strands ar

Abstract:
The Inner Harbor Navigation Canal (IHNC) Lock connects the Mississippi River to the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway, surrounded by developed areas in New Orleans, Louisiana. Tow transit times through the current IHNC lock take up to 20 hours. The US Army Corps of Engineers, New Orleans District, has proposed constructing a new lock to reduce tow transit times significantly. However, the new lock will have potential effects on vehicle traffic patterns due to the three bridges across IHNC. To address potential navigation issues, hydrodynamic modeling and ship simulations of the study area were conduc

Abstract:
The science of reading (SoR) is a term used for a body of evidence encompassing multi-disciplinary research from education, cognitive psychology, linguistics, and neuroscience. This evidence points to six key constructs that contribute to proficient reading: oral language, phonological awareness including phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary and reading comprehension. Research around these constructs provides researchers and teachers with an evidence base of the knowledge, skills and strategies involved in competent reading and describes how reading develops in both typical and aty
