“I’m doing it because I can and I choose to,” said Russell. “It should be normal for women to go topless
A ruling this year in a Fort Collins, Colorado courtroom has given Russell the bravery she needed for her scooter rides
For Wyoming it all started in 2017, when a lawsuit by the activist group Free the Nipple argued that a ban on female toplessness in Fort Collins was unconstitutional because it only applied to women
“We're left, as the district court was, to suspect that the City's professed interest in protecting children derives not from any morphological differences between men's and women's breasts but from negative stereotypes depicting women's breasts, but not men's breasts, as sex objects,” wrote the majority in the final decision.

Valley News - Firm wants to operate facility that processes construction debris in Claremont
The plans on file in the Planning and Development office from American Recycling on Industrial Boulevard state that the existing building next to the rail siding would be demolished down to the concrete slab. The slab would then be enlarged with more concrete on the east and west ends
Francesco Finocchiaro, co-owner of the recycling business with Dave Schiebel, said last week they see a strong demand to dispose of construction and demolition debris
With no new landfills being permitted, disposal options are becoming more and more difficult to find. As an example, he noted that aas of May 1, the landfill in Lebanon is no longer accepting construction and demolition.

Since the 19th amendment finally gave suffrage to women, females have been pushing the boundaries of what gender equality looks like. A bill recently passed in Fort Collins that allows women to go topless in the city is another positive step towards equality that woman have fought tooth and nail for
It was argued in court that allowing men to walk topless in public but prohibiting women from doing the same is a violation of the Equal Protection Clause in the U.S. Constitution. Looking at just legality, this is absolutely true. Allowing men to do something but not women is unconstitutional.

Valley News - Art Review: Contemporary Photographers Shed Light on Ansel Adams
But Adams's well-thumbed vision of the world — and especially of Yosemite, Yellowstone and the Sierra Nevada — felt increasingly false to my eyes. Yes, he helped secure the sacred status of many areas of American wilderness. He also helped establish the art credentials of photography in the first half of the 20th century
The 100 or so Adams photographs here include more than just the majestic pictures he referred to as his "Mona Lisas" — images such as Clearing Winter Storm, Yosemite and Monolith that were so loved that he printed them repeatedly throughout his career. They also include his modernist — and sometimes mournful — photographs of San Francisco during the Depression; of the Taos Pueblo people, who he believed were under threat of extinction; of the Japanese internment camp at Manzanar, in California, during World War II; and the ghost towns, wildfire-ravaged trees and spaghetti junctions of California.
