The MTA's weekend subway plans, congrats to Joey Chestnut, our absentee mayor continues to be absentee, Cash Cab is back, and more in today's daily NYC news digest.
I hope everyone had a great 4th of July, regardless if you celebrated or not. July 4th was a cause for celebration for The Briefly as well. It's the one year anniversary of the first email sent by The Briefly. Thank you for being a reader.
You might think of it as a holiday weekend, but the MTA has other plans. 12 subway lines have planned disruptions this weekend. (Subway Weekender)
Tiffany Cabán was 1,100 votes ahead of Melinda Katz on election night. As of July 4, she was 20 votes behind. Queens is headed for a manual recount. (NY Times)

Our mayor, who spent July 4th in Iowa, said "I'm a half-glass-full kind of guy" when it comes to his polling numbers, which are in the toilet. His office in New York, which is been full empty, as he pretends he's not wasting time and money in Iowa. He missed the funeral for 9/11 responder and NYPD detective Lou Alvarez and failed to preside over the weigh-in for Nathan's hot dog eating competition, something Mayor Bloomberg did 11 of the 12 years he was mayor.

The Briefly for May 20, 2019 – The "Casting Literal and Figurative Shade" Edition
A legendary pizza place is temporarily closed, Scott Stringer is making his mayoral candidacy clear, the NYPL's secrets, and more in today's daily NYC news digest.
This week's planned late-night subway disruptions are along the 3, 6, A, D and E lines, but double check before you go anywhere after 10pm. (Subway Weekender)
The BQE Rehab panel is asking for feedback. If you want to provide your feedback, there's a phone number and a form for the kind of constructive, polite feedback New Yorkers are known for. (BQE Panel)
The developer of the building that would cast literal shade on the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens is attempting a char offensive campaign to promote the site's affordable housing. I'm not sure there's a New Yorker gullible enough to believe that a company would pay $75 million for a plot of land and then build 1,500 apartments (50% would be "affordable") because they believe in affordable housing. (Gothamist)
From the pneumatic tubes, to the book train, to the actual visible history you can see in the building, ten secrets of the NYPL's main branch on 42nd St. (Untapped Cities)
Not on the list is the number of empty floors of stacks. There are some parts of the NYPL that can't safely store its research collection, which has been moved into storage underneath Bryant Park, where its 11 million book collection is safe. (NY Times)
Wave hello to the city's newest bars and restaurants. (amNY)
The restaurants ordered closed last week, including surprising inclusions Barcade on 24th and Di Fara Pizza in Midwood. (Patch)
Di Fara says it will be reopening today. (Eater)
If you need more proof that the MTA wasn't prepared for the L Train Slowdown, the initial cuts to the M14's route have been altered with this "final compromise." (Curbed)
35 years after opening, Bookbook in Greenwich Village is closing. It's not the city's rising rents, but retirement that's calling the owners. (NY Times)
This Gothamist piece about a protest from contractors over the proposed rent reforms takes a turn midway through, accusing real estate and landlord groups of astroturfing the hearings. (Gothamist)
630 Fifth Avenue. Quickly, what's the nearest corner? Take off the last number and you've got 63. Divide it by 2 and you have 31. Add 20 because it's over 600 and the answer is 51st St. Finding a cross street used to involve a little math. (Ephemeral New York)
The city lost 7,500 affordable apartments in 2018, but gained 11,800. There's a catch. 80% of the new apartments' affordability status is temporary. (The Real Deal)
Brooklyn's bra whisperer. (NY City Lens)
The Bronx's Tibbetts Brook was "moved" underground by Robert Moses. As a result of Robert Moses's brilliant idea, the surrounding area floods when it rains, the flooding overwhelms the sewers and overflow has to be dumped into the Harlem River. The Parks Department has a plan to bring the brook back above ground to remedy this, but a private rail company stands in their way. (Gothamist)
If you're unfamiliar with the Combined Sewage Overflow system, the city collects rainwater in its sewer system, and when the combination of rainwater, human waste, and whatever else on the street overload the sewer system, it dumps out in the NYC waters in 13 locations, dumping 377 million gallons of raw sewage into our waters. (Newsweek)
This is why the city closely monitors the water at the city's beaches for sewage runoff. Beaches were on warning for 49 days in 2018 with one closure. The Swim Guide and website is also available for water condition reports. (nyc.gov and The Brooklyn Eagle)
Notify NYC now offers transit alerts. Why would you want transit alerts from the Department of Emergency Management, a city agency, instead of the MTA, a state agency, or one of the dozens of transit apps? No idea. A quick look shows that the Notify system doesn't have the same breadth of coverage as @NYCTsubway on twitter. (amNY)
It shouldn't be to anyone's surprise at the width of the chasm of difference between the rezoning plans of the Department of City Planning and the Bushwick Community Plan for Bushwick's future. (Bklyner)
Normal people put up curtains or shades in their bathrooms so people can't watch them poop. Alex Rodriguez does not appear to be a normal person, or else this photo of A-Rod taking a deuce wouldn't be on the internet. (Gothamist)
Morgenstern's is adding a twist to its flagship ice cream location on Houston: booze. (Eater)
The most popular baby names in NYC are Liam, Noah, Jacob, Emma, and Olivia. Not many future kinds named Bran. (Patch)

Wind Rider's Oath   is a fantasy novel by  American writer David Weber, the third book in the "War God" series. It follows the adventures of Bahzell Bahnakson and his friend Brandark.  The format is a swords-and-sorcery land with dwarves, elves, humans, halflings and hradani - the 5 Races. There is a pantheon of Gods, some good and some vile. It is followed by  Sword Brother, a novella published together with a January 2007 edition of Oath of Swords, the second book in the series.

Plot

At the end of The War God's Own, Bahzell had accepted the surrender of the much larger force commanded by the Sothoii Baron Tellian. Bahzell, Brandark and Kaeritha are now visiting the Baron's castle from which the baron rules a large portion of the Sothoii Empire. The surrender by Baron Tellian has caused political unrest within the Sothoii nation as does the presence of Bahzell and his entourage of Hradani, members of most recent chapter of the War God's monks.

Bahzell and his fellow Hradani run to the aid of the remnant of a herd of Coursers who were attacked by minions of one of the evil gods. For centuries these phenomenal, sentient horses have been revered by the Sothoii. They sometimes form lifelong mental links with a few select Sothoii warriors who are then known as "Windriders". Bahzell is the first non-Sothoii to become a windrider and rides a Courser who, like Bahzell, has become a champion of the war god. This, along with the obvious effort and sacrifice the Hradani have made to save the Coursers does much to alleviate the political tensions.

Meanwhile, Kaeritha, another war god champion, obeys her call to the Sothoii Warmaids, who are keen that there is no diminution of their legal rights. The devotees of the vile gods continue - as a third strand of their long-planned attack on the Sothoii - to manipulate and attack in Baron Tellian's own lands.

Characters
 Bahzell Bahnakson of the Horse Stealer hradani. The son of Bahnak, the prince of Hurgrum, the first hradani champion of Tomanak in more than 1,200 years.
 Brandark Brandarkson of the Bloody Sword hradani.
 Kaeritha, a champion of Tomanak who joins Bahzell in his effort to defeat Sharna.
 Tomanāk Orfro, God of War and Justice.

I am wishing an addon switch the player to /DND I am alt-tab out of the game.
So whenever I press ALT+TAB it will change to DND or AFK with that message. More Advanced, may be not require DND either AFK just a auto-answering machine saying "I am alt-tab out of the game."
Cannot be done, we have no way of knowing if the game has focus.
How about something small like a keystroke that would flag you dnd or afk with a custom message. For instance SHIFT+X flags you DND, then you can alt+tab. When you come back, just press SHIFT+X to take you off DND.
Just an idea, but that's all i can bring to the table-an idea.
Just make a macro for it.

On Wednesday, transgender reality star Caitlyn Jenner received heartwarming tributes and throwback pictures from her daughters in celebration of her 71st birthday.
Kylie and Kendall Jenner, along with Kim Kardashian's tributes came shortly after news broke that "Keeping Up With the Kardashians is coming to an end after fourteen years on the air.

THE JENNER SISTERS PAY TRIBUTE
Caitlyn's birthday had her daughter Kendall all nostalgic, and she paid tribute to her father with throwback pictures taken during her childhood, with and without Caitlyn.
Kendall posted a flurry of pictures to wish her dad a happy birthday. Taking a trip down memory lane, Caitlyn will always be the dad she knew and loved since childhood, as she shared:

Kylie Jenner also made sure to send Caitlyn a special tribute. Sharing a beautiful selfie taken with her dad, the youngest member of the famous reality clan posted it to social media with a short message that conveyed her feelings.
The 23-year-old, who remained supportive of her father after he came out as transgender, bedazzled the birthday snap with various quips that showed how much she loves him as she wrote:

Kim wanted to make her birthday special and had her guests, which included family and close friends, flown into the secret location. Sending lots of love to Caitlyn, the beauty mogul gushed:

CAITLYN ON THE END OF AN ERA
When Caitlyn found out that "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" will air its last episode next year, she commented on the end of what became an era for the family. Their reality show ran for fourteen years, and after more than 500 episodes, Caitlyn noted that the news didn't exactly come as a surprise and added:
"These girls have done just an amazing job to keep the show going, come up with material. But kind of everybody is in a different place now and I think it's time to move on."

CLOSER THAN EVER
The 71-year-old announced her transition five years ago, and during an interview earlier this year, Caitlyn Jenner said that she wouldn't have been able to go through with it if her children had a problem with the major life change.
However, the courage it took for Caitlyn to share and live her truth, made her daughters Kendall and Kylie look at her through different and inspired eyes. Describing her as their "hero," they share a close relationship.

Brick by brick- that's how we will build "education path" for our children – Stay curious.
Not so long ago, browsing the Internet, I ran into this. The stunning photos of girls at various ages, backgrounds and origins going to schools. Nigerian female students were also among them, alongside countries like Ethiopia, Syria, Pakistan or, on the other hand, the USA, France or the UK. Extraordinary photographs of beautiful girls, difficult to be glanced off. But what is the most important is the story behind the photos. We can observe those who are wading through lake waters, walking in burning sun or severe frost. Not rarely are they passing crumbling buildings and soldiers, armed to the teeth. None of the young students seems discouraged or unwilling. They keep going impassively, to get to school. All in all, the girls' way to be allowed at schools was too long and bumpy to get discouraged so "easily".
It was no sooner than in 17th century that the first woman earned a university degree (Juliana Morell, she was Spanish). Taking into account that the first university (University of Bologna) was established in 11th century, there is a huge, shameful gap in the history of higher education. Sadly, the discrepancies in male and female education are not only the matter of the past. And they start on a much more basic level. Currently there are about 61 million children who are not at school, being at primary school age. More than half of them (around 53%) are girls. It is estimated that worldwide 15 million girls and 10 million boys will likely never enter a classroom.
In one of Nigerian states, Benue, there are no less than 70% children that are out of school, also: mostly girls. But even regardless the factor of being a boy or a girl, the fact that so many children are deprived of the access to education is terrifying.
On the other hand, we constantly observe wonderful women who contribute to education to the extent beyond expectations. Such as Vicky Colbert, if I would refer to just one example here. Mrs Colbert is founder and director of Fundación Escuela Nueva– it develops a form of schooling that focuses on cooperative learning and cross-peer tutoring, being in favour of new learner-centred model, instead of the conventional, teacher-centred one. Colbert, by implementing her solutions, has managed to reach the tens of thousands of small rural schools scattered across her nation, with a great promise to improve the education of the hundreds of millions of disadvantaged children throughout the world. For her impressive, and for many life-changing, achievements she was awarded numerous prestigious prizes.
Thinking about all those women of education, those who we have met personally or those who we keep reading or watching about, we have one conclusion. They are just as persistent in what they do as those girls, wading through the mud to get to school.
We aim at co-creating those community of brave women of education. We do believe that women have the power to change the world! So we try to do it, step by step. We place our own brick on the education masonry, as we care about providing the best quality of teaching and learning. To women too, yes, but not only. We believe that the whole young generation possesses a great potential to push things forward, to transform, to make the world a better place. Therefore, let's all try not to disappoint them. As it is often not enough that they just go to school. Let's make this place provide them with skills that will truly prepare them to live in the 21st century; to live not meant as to survive- but to develop and be successful lifelong.
If you want to know more about "the brick" we place- our teacher training in 21st century skills, go here.

Q: Spring Batch and S3 Integration - how to remove null characters first from S3 before start reading? In my case, we get the FlatFile from the source system and keep it on server and then we push this file to Amazon S3 Bucket due to some automated process.
The Source system is Mainframe which somehow puts null characters into FlatFile and its unavoidable for them. Now before we start reading FlatFile we must need to remove null characters (like we do using linux command - tr \'\\000\' \' \' < \"%s\" > \"%s\") from the file present in Amazon S3 bucket.
So far I don't see a way (not unable to find out how to do it) to remove null characters without download and once null characters got removed, then start reading it.
Note - Since we've deployed Batch App on PCF, we cant download on PCF and remove NULL characters and upload again, because PCF support team confirms that File System within PCF is transient and hence doing anything related to file is not advisable there.

A: I don't know if you can change the file inline in s3 without downloading it. That said, having a transient file system does not mean not doing any file operations, it rather means don't rely on that FS for persistent storage. Any temporary file manipulation can be done on that FS without any issue.
So even if the file system on PCF is transient, I don't see any downside of downloading the file and transforming it in a tasklet step before starting the chunk-oriented processing (obviously as long as you have enough space to store the file). A SystemCommandTasklet is appropriate for your tr command. The file can be cleaned up in a final step or in a job listener.

Neuroscientist, Caltech, Allen Inst. Brain Science
Christof Koch is an American neuroscientist best known for his work on the neural bases of consciousness. He is the President and Chief Scientific Officer of the Allen Institute of Brain Science in Seattle. From 1986 until 2013, he was the Lois and Victor Troendle Professor of Cognitive and Behavioral Biology at The California Institute of Technology.
Koch received a PhD in nonlinear information processing from the Max Planck Institute in Tübingen, Germany. He then worked for four years at the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at MIT. In 1986, he joined the newly started Computation and Neural Systems PhD program at The California Institute of Technology.
Since the early 1990s, Koch has studied consciousness as a scientifically tractable problem, and has been influential in arguing that consciousness can now be approached using the modern tools of neurobiology. His primary collaborator in the endeavour of locating the neural correlates of consciousness was the late Francis Crick. Together with James Bower, he founded in 1988 the Methods in Computational Neuroscience summer course at the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, which remains ongoing. In 1993, he founded, together with Rodney Douglas and Terrence Sejnowski, the Neuromorphic Engineering Summer School in Telluride, Colorado, which remains ongoing. Koch was the executive officer of the Computation and Neural Systems program at Caltech from 2000 to 2005.
In early 2011, Christof Koch became the Chief Scientific Officer of the Allen Institute for Brain Science, leading their high through-put, large scale ten year, cortical coding project. The mission of MindScope is to understand the computations that lead from photons to behavior by observing and modeling the physical transformations of signals in the visual brain of behaving mice for one perception-action cycle (0.1 - 2 sec). The project seeks to catalogue all the building blocks (ca. 100 distinct cell types) of the then visual cortical regions and associated structures (thalamus, colliculus) and their dynamics. The scientists seek to know what the animal sees, how it thinks, and how it decides. They seek to map out the murine mind in a quantitative manner. The first four years of this endeavor to build a number of brain observatories was funded by a generous donation of $300 million by the Microsoft Founder and Philanthropist Paul G. Allen.

Even far more important, the exact small business venture environment has now possibly be the ideal place as a way to create numerous new creation and test out them swiftly. The small timer possibly can then far develop your current inventions whom show generally promise in the market place place.
This has been virtually unrealistic to do with a definite big career that comes armed with plenty with bureaucracy, where wide discussions are asked for before any small preference is carried out.

Supreme Court Decisions by Topic > FREEDOM OF SPEECH >
APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT
No. 84-1360 Argued: November 12, 1985 --- Decided: February 25, 1986
JUSTICE REHNQUIST delivered the opinion of the Court.
This case involves a constitutional challenge to a zoning ordinance, enacted by appellant city of Renton, Washington, that prohibits adult motion picture theaters from locating within 1,000 feet of any residential zone, single- or multiple-family dwelling, church, park, or school. Appellees, Playtime Theatres, Inc., and Sea-First Properties, Inc., filed an action in the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington seeking a declaratory judgment that the Renton ordinance violated the First and Fourteenth Amendments, and a permanent injunction against its enforcement. The District Court ruled in favor of Renton and denied the permanent injunction, but the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit reversed and remanded for reconsideration. 748 F.2d 527 (1984). We noted probable jurisdiction, 471 U.S. 1013 (1985), and now reverse the judgment of the Ninth Circuit. [n1] [p44]
In May 1980, the Mayor of Renton, a city of approximately 32,000 people located just south of Seattle, suggested to the Renton City Council that it consider the advisability of enacting zoning legislation dealing with adult entertainment uses. No such uses existed in the city at that time. Upon the Mayor's suggestion, the City Council referred the matter to the city's Planning and Development Committee. The Committee held public hearings, reviewed the experiences of Seattle and other cities, and received a report from the City Attorney's Office advising as to developments in other cities. The City Council, meanwhile, adopted Resolution No. 2368, which imposed a moratorium on the licensing of "any business . . . which . . . has as its primary purpose the selling, renting or showing of sexually explicit materials." App. 43. The resolution contained a clause explaining that such businesses "would have a severe impact upon surrounding businesses and residences." Id. at 42.
In April, 1981, acting on the basis of the Planning and Development Committee's recommendation, the City Council enacted Ordinance No. 3626. The ordinance prohibited any "adult motion picture theater" from locating within 1,000 feet of any residential zone, single- or multiple-family dwelling, church, or park, and within one mile of any school. App. to Juris. Statement 79a. The term "adult motion picture theater" was defined as
[a]n enclosed building used for presenting motion picture films, video cassettes, cable television, or any other such visual media, distinguished or characteri[zed] by an emphasis on matter depicting, describing or relating to "specified sexual activities" or "specified anatomical areas" . . . for observation by patrons therein.
Id. at 78a. [p45]
In early 1982, respondents acquired two existing theaters in downtown Renton, with the intention of using them to exhibit feature-length adult films. The theaters were located within the area proscribed by Ordinance No. 3526. At about the same time, respondents filed the previously mentioned lawsuit challenging the ordinance on First and Fourteenth Amendment grounds, and seeking declaratory and injunctive relief. While the federal action was pending, the City Council amended the ordinance in several respects, adding a statement of reasons for its enactment and reducing the minimum distance from any school to 1,000 feet.
In November, 1982, the Federal Magistrate to whom respondents' action had been referred recommended the entry of a preliminary injunction against enforcement of the Renton ordinance and the denial of Renton's motions to dismiss and for summary judgment. The District Court adopted the Magistrate's recommendations and entered the preliminary injunction, and respondents began showing adult films at their two theaters in Renton. Shortly thereafter, the parties agreed to submit the case for a final decision on whether a permanent injunction should issue on the basis of the record as already developed.
The District Court then vacated the preliminary injunction, denied respondents' requested permanent injunction, and entered summary judgment in favor of Renton. The court found that the Renton ordinance did not substantially restrict First Amendment interests, that Renton was not required to show specific adverse impact on Renton from the operation of adult theaters, but could rely on the experiences of other cities, that the purposes of the ordinance were unrelated to the suppression of speech, and that the restrictions on speech imposed by the ordinance were no greater than necessary to further the governmental interests involved. Relying on Young v. American Mini Theatres, Inc., 427 U.S. 50"]427 U.S. 50 (1976), and 427 U.S. 50 (1976), and United States v. O'Brien, 391 U.S. 367 (1968), the court held that the Renton ordinance did not violate the First Amendment. [p46]
The Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit reversed. The Court of Appeals first concluded, contrary to the finding of the District Court, that the Renton ordinance constituted a substantial restriction on First Amendment interests. Then, using the standards set forth in United States v. O'Brien, supra, the Court of Appeals held that Renton had improperly relied on the experiences of other cities in lieu of evidence about the effects of adult theaters on Renton, that Renton had thus failed to establish adequately the existence of a substantial governmental interest in support of its ordinance, and that, in any event, Renton's asserted interests had not been shown to be unrelated to the suppression of expression. The Court of Appeals remanded the case to the District Court for reconsideration of Renton's asserted interests.
In our view, the resolution of this case is largely dictated by our decision in Young v. American Mini Theatres, Inc., supra. There, although five Members of the Court did not agree on a single rationale for the decision, we held that the city of Detroit's zoning ordinance, which prohibited locating an adult theater within 1,000 feet of any two other "regulated uses" or within 600 feet of any residential zone, did not violate the First and Fourteenth Amendments. Id. at 72-73 (plurality opinion of STEVENS, J., joined by BURGER, C.J., and WHITE and REHNQUIST, JJ.); id. at 84 (POWELL, J., concurring). The Renton ordinance, like the one in American Mini Theatres, does not ban adult theaters altogether, but merely provides that such theaters may not be located within 1,000 feet of any residential zone, single- or multiple-family dwelling, church, park, or school. The ordinance is therefore properly analyzed as a form of time, place, and manner regulation. Id. at 63, and n. 18; id. at 78-79 (POWELL, J., concurring).
Describing the ordinance as a time, place, and manner regulation is, of course, only the first step in our inquiry. This Court has long held that regulations enacted for the [p47] purpose of restraining speech on the basis of its content presumptively violate the First Amendment. See Carey v. Brown, 447 U.S. 455, 462-463, and n. 7 (1980); Police Dept. of Chicago v. Mosley, 408 U.S. 92, 95, 98-99 (1972). On the other hand, so-called "content-neutral" time, place, and manner regulations are acceptable so long as they are designed to serve a substantial governmental interest and do not unreasonably limit alternative avenues of communication. See Clark v. Community for Creative Non-Violence, 468 U.S. 288, 293 (1984); City Council of Los Angeles v. Taxpayers for Vincent, 466 U.S. 789, 807 (1984); Heffron v. International Society for Krishna Consciousness, Inc., 452 U.S. 640, 647-648 (1981).
At first glance, the Renton ordinance, like the ordinance in American Mini Theatres, does not appear to fit neatly into either the "content-based" or the "content-neutral" category. To be sure, the ordinance treats theaters that specialize in adult films differently from other kinds of theaters. Nevertheless, as the District Court concluded, the Renton ordinance is aimed not at the content of the films shown at "adult motion picture theatres," but rather at the secondary effects of such theaters on the surrounding community. The District Court found that the City Council's "predominate concerns" were with the secondary effects of adult theaters, and not with the content of adult films themselves. App. to Juris. Statement 31a (emphasis added). But the Court of Appeals, relying on its decision in Tovar v. Billmeyer, 721 F.2d 1260, 1266 (CA9 1983), held that this was not enough to sustain the ordinance. According to the Court of Appeals, if "a motivating factor" in enacting the ordinance was to restrict respondents' exercise of First Amendment rights, the ordinance would be invalid, apparently no matter how small a part this motivating factor may have played in the City Council's decision. 748 F.2d at 537 (emphasis in original). This view of the law was rejected in United States v. O'Brien, 391 U.S. at 382-386, the very case that the Court of Appeals said it was applying: [p48]
It is a familiar principle of constitutional law that this Court will not strike down an otherwise constitutional statute on the basis of an alleged illicit legislative motive. . . .
. . . What motivates one legislator to make a speech about a statute is not necessarily what motivates scores of others to enact it, and the stakes are sufficiently high for us to eschew guesswork.
Id. at 383-384.
The District Court's finding as to "predominate" intent, left undisturbed by the Court of Appeals, is more than adequate to establish that the city's pursuit of its zoning interests here was unrelated to the suppression of free expression. The ordinance, by its terms, is designed to prevent crime, protect the city's retail trade, maintain property values, and generally "protec[t] and preserv[e] the quality of [the city's] neighborhoods, commercial districts, and the quality of urban life," not to suppress the expression of unpopular views. See App. to Juris. Statement 90a. As JUSTICE POWELL observed in American Mini Theatres,
[i]f [the city] had been concerned with restricting the message purveyed by adult theaters, it would have tried to close them or restrict their number, rather than circumscribe their choice as to location.
427 U.S. at 82, n. 4.
In short, the Renton ordinance is completely consistent with our definition of "content-neutral" speech regulations as those that "are justified without reference to the content of the regulated speech." Virginia Pharmacy Board v. Virginia Citizens Consumer Council, Inc., 425 U.S. 748, 771 (1976) (emphasis added); Community for Creative NonViolence, supra, at 293; International Society for Krishna Consciousness, supra, at 648. The ordinance does not contravene the fundamental principle that underlies our concern about "content-based" speech regulations: that "government may not grant the use of a forum to people whose views it finds acceptable, but deny use to those wishing to express [p49] less favored or more controversial views." Mosley, supra, at 95-96.
It was with this understanding in mind that, in American Mini Theatres, a majority of this Court decided that, at least with respect to businesses that purvey sexually explicit materials, [n2] zoning ordinances designed to combat the undesirable secondary effects of such businesses are to be reviewed under the standards applicable to "content-neutral" time, place, and manner regulations. JUSTICE STEVENS, writing for the plurality, concluded that the city of Detroit was entitled to draw a distinction between adult theaters and other kinds of theaters "without violating the government's paramount obligation of neutrality in its regulation of protected communication," 427 U.S. at 70, noting that "[i]t is th[e] secondary effect which these zoning ordinances attempt to avoid, not the dissemination of 'offensive' speech," id. at 71, n. 34. JUSTICE POWELL, in concurrence, elaborated:
[The] dissent misconceives the issue in this case by insisting that it involves an impermissible time, place, and manner restriction based on the content of expression. It involves nothing of the kind. We have here merely a decision by the city to treat certain movie theaters differently because they have markedly different effects upon their surroundings. . . . Moreover, even if this were a case involving a special governmental response to the content of one type of movie, it is possible that the result would be supported by a line of cases recognizing that the government can tailor its reaction to different types of speech according to the degree to which its special and overriding interests are implicated. [p50] See, e.g., Tinker v. Des Moines School Dist., 393 U.S. 503, 509-511 (1969); Procunier v. Martinez, 416 U.S. 396, 413-414 (1974); Greer v. Spock, 424 U.S. 828, 842-844 (1976) (POWELL, J., concurring); cf. CSC v. Letter Carriers, 413 U.S. 548 (1973).
Id. at 81, n. 6. The appropriate inquiry in this case, then, is whether the Renton ordinance is designed to serve a substantial governmental interest and allows for reasonable alternative avenues of communication. See Community for Creative NonViolence, 468 U.S. at 293; International Society for Krishna Consciousness, 452 U.S. at 649, 654. It is clear that the ordinance meets such a standard. As a majority of this Court recognized in American Mini Theatres, a City's "interest in attempting to preserve the quality of urban life is one that must be accorded high respect." 427 U.S. at 71 (plurality opinion); see id. at 80 (POWELL, J., concurring) ("Nor is there doubt that the interests furthered by this ordinance are both important and substantial"). Exactly the same vital governmental interests are at stake here.
The Court of Appeals ruled, however, that, because the Renton ordinance was enacted without the benefit of studies specifically relating to "the particular problems or needs of Renton," the city's justifications for the ordinance were "conclusory and speculative." 748 F.2d at 537. We think the Court of Appeals imposed on the city an unnecessarily rigid burden of proof. The record in this case reveals that Renton relied heavily on the experience of, and studies produced by, the city of Seattle. In Seattle, as in Renton, the adult theater zoning ordinance was aimed at preventing the secondary effects caused by the presence of even one such theater in a given neighborhood. See Northend Cinema, Inc. v. Seattle, 90 Wash.2d 709, 585 P.2d 1153 (1978). The opinion of the Supreme Court of Washington in Northend Cinema, which [p51] was before the Renton City Council when it enacted the ordinance in question here, described Seattle's experience as follows:
The amendments to the City's zoning code which are at issue here are the culmination of a long period of study and discussion of the problems of adult movie theaters in residential areas of the City. . . . [T]he City's Department of Community Development made a study of the need for zoning controls of adult theaters. . . . The study analyzed the City's zoning scheme, comprehensive plan, and land uses around existing adult motion picture theaters. . . .
Id. at 711, 585 P.2d at 1155.
[T]he [trial] court heard extensive testimony regarding the history and purpose of these ordinances. It heard expert testimony on the adverse effects of the presence of adult motion picture theaters on neighborhood children and community improvement efforts. The court's detailed findings, which include a finding that the location of adult theaters has a harmful effect on the area and contribute to neighborhood blight, are supported by substantial evidence in the record.
The record is replete with testimony regarding the effects of adult movie theater locations on residential neighborhoods.
We hold that Renton was entitled to rely on the experiences of Seattle and other cities, and in particular on the "detailed findings" summarized in the Washington Supreme Court's Northend Cinema opinion, in enacting its adult theater zoning ordinance. The First Amendment does not require a city, before enacting such an ordinance, to conduct new studies or produce evidence independent of that already generated by other cities, so long as whatever evidence the city relies upon is reasonably believed to be relevant to the [p52] problem that the city addresses. That was the case here. Nor is our holding affected by the fact that Seattle ultimately chose a different method of adult theater zoning than that chosen by Renton, since Seattle's choice of a different remedy to combat the secondary effects of adult theaters does not call into question either Seattle's identification of those secondary effects or the relevance of Seattle's experience to Renton.
We also find no constitutional defect in the method chosen by Renton to further its substantial interests. Cities may regulate adult theaters by dispersing them, as in Detroit, or by effectively concentrating them, as in Renton.
It is not our function to appraise the wisdom of [the city's] decision to require adult theaters to be separated, rather than concentrated in the same areas. . . . [T]he city must be allowed a reasonable opportunity to experiment with solutions to admittedly serious problems.
American Mini Theatres, 427 U.S. at 71 (plurality opinion). Moreover, the Renton ordinance is "narrowly tailored" to affect only that category of theaters shown to produce the unwanted secondary effects, thus avoiding the flaw that proved fatal to the regulations in Schad v. Mount Ephraim, 452 U.S. 61 (1981), and Erznoznik v. City of Jacksonville, 422 U.S. 205 (1975).
Respondents contend that the Renton ordinance is "underinclusive," in that it fails to regulate other kinds of adult businesses that are likely to produce secondary effects similar to those produced by adult theaters. On this record, the contention must fail. There is no evidence that, at the time the Renton ordinance was enacted, any other adult business was located in, or was contemplating moving into, Renton. In fact, Resolution No. 2368, enacted in October, 1980, states that "the City of Renton does not, at the present time, have any business whose primary purpose is the sale, rental, or showing of sexually explicit materials." App. 42. That Renton chose first to address the potential problems created [p53] by one particular kind of adult business in no way suggests that the city has "singled out" adult theaters for discriminatory treatment. We simply have no basis on this record for assuming that Renton will not, in the future, amend its ordinance to include other kinds of adult businesses that have been shown to produce the same kinds of secondary effects as adult theaters. See Williamson v. Lee Optical Co., 348 U.S. 483, 488-489 (1955).
Finally, turning to the question whether the Renton ordinance allows for reasonable alternative avenues of communication, we note that the ordinance leaves some 520 acres, or more than five percent of the entire land area of Renton, open to use as adult theater sites. The District Court found, and the Court of Appeals did not dispute the finding, that the 520 acres of land consists of "[a]mple, accessible real estate," including "acreage in all stages of development from raw land to developed, industrial, warehouse, office, and shopping space that is Criss-Crossed by freeways, highways, and roads." App. to Juris. Statement 28a.
Respondents argue, however, that some of the land in question is already occupied by existing businesses, that "practically none" of the undeveloped land is currently for sale or lease, and that, in general, there are no "commercially viable" adult theater sites within the 520 acres left open by the Renton ordinance. Brief for Appellees 34-37. The Court of Appeals accepted these arguments, [n3] concluded that [p54] the 520 acres was not truly "available" land, and therefore held that the Renton ordinance "would result in a substantial restriction" on speech. 748 F.2d at 534.
We disagree with both the reasoning and the conclusion of the Court of Appeals. That respondents must fend for themselves in the real estate market, on an equal footing with other prospective purchasers and lessees, does not give rise to a First Amendment violation. And although we have cautioned against the enactment of zoning regulations that have "the effect of suppressing, or greatly restricting access to, lawful speech," American Mini Theatres, 427 U.S. at 71, n. 35 (plurality opinion), we have never suggested that the First Amendment compels the Government to ensure that adult theaters, or any other kinds of speech-related businesses for that matter, will be able to obtain sites at bargain prices. See id. at 78 (POWELL, J., concurring) ("The inquiry for First Amendment purposes is not concerned with economic impact"). In our view, the First Amendment requires only that Renton refrain from effectively denying respondents a reasonable opportunity to open and operate an adult theater within the city, and the ordinance before us easily meets this requirement.
In sum, we find that the Renton ordinance represents a valid governmental response to the "admittedly serious problems" created by adult theaters. See id. at 71 (plurality opinion). Renton has not used "the power to zone as a pretext for suppressing expression," id. at 84 (POWELL, J., concurring), but rather has sought to make some areas available for adult theaters and their patrons, while at the same time preserving the quality of life in the community at large by preventing those theaters from locating in other areas. This, after all, is the essence of zoning. Here, as in American Mini Theatres, the city has enacted a zoning ordinance that meets these goals while also satisfying the dictates of the [p55] First Amendment. [n4] The judgment of the Court of Appeals is therefore
JUSTICE BLACKMUN concurs in the result.
1. This appeal was taken under 28 U.S.C. § 1254(2), which provides this Court with appellate jurisdiction at the behest of a party relying on a state statute or local ordinance held unconstitutional by a court of appeals. As we have previously noted, there is some question whether jurisdiction under § 1254(2) is available to review a nonfinal judgment. See South Carolina Electric & Gas Co. v. Flemming, 351 U.S. 901 (1956); Slaker v. O'Connor, 278 U.S. 188 (1929). But see Chicago v. Atchison, T. & S.F. R. Co., 357 U.S. 77, 82-83 (1958).
The present appeal seeks review of a judgment remanding the case to the District Court. We need not resolve whether this appeal is proper under § 1254(2), however, because, in any event we have certiorari jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 2103. As we have previously done in equivalent situations, see El Paso v. Simmons, 379 U.S. 497, 503-503 (1965); Doran v. Salem Inn, Inc., 422 U.S. 922, 927 (1975), we dismiss the appeal and, treating the papers as a petition for certiorari, grant the writ of certiorari. Henceforth, we shall refer to the parties as "petitioners" and "respondents."
2. See American Mini Theatres, 427 U.S. at 70 (plurality opinion) ("[I]t is manifest that society's interest in protecting this type of expression is of a wholly different, and lesser, magnitude than the interest in untrammeled political debate. . . .").
3. The Court of Appeals' rejection of the District Court's findings on this issue may have stemmed in part from the belief, expressed elsewhere in the Court of Appeals' opinion, that, under Bose Corp. v. Consumers Union of United States, Inc., 466 U.S. 485 (1984), appellate courts have a duty to review de novo all mixed findings of law and fact relevant to the application of First Amendment principles. See 748 F.2d 527, 535 (1984). We need not review the correctness of the Court of Appeals' interpretation of Bose Corp., since we determine that, under any standard of review, the District Court's findings should not have been disturbed.
4. Respondents argue, as an "alternative basis" for affirming the decision of the Court of Appeals, that the Renton ordinance violates their rights under the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. As should be apparent from our preceding discussion, respondents can fare no better under the Equal Protection Clause than under the First Amendment itself. See Young v. American Mini Theatres, Inc., 427 U.S. at 63-73.
Respondents also argue that the Renton ordinance is unconstitutionally vague. More particularly, respondents challenge the ordinance's application to buildings "used" for presenting sexually explicit films, where the term "used" describes "a continuing course of conduct of exhibiting [sexually explicit films] in a manner which appeals to a prurient interest." App. to Juris. Statement 96a. We reject respondents' "vagueness" argument for the same reasons that led us to reject a similar challenge in American Mini Theatres, supra. There, the Detroit ordinance applied to theaters "used to present material distinguished or characterized by an emphasis on [sexually explicit matter]." Id. at 63. We held that "even if there may be some uncertainty about the effect of the ordinances on other litigants, they are unquestionably applicable to these respondents." Id. at 68-69. We also held that the Detroit ordinance created no "significant deterrent effect" that might justify invocation of the First Amendment "overbreadth" doctrine. Id. at 69-61.

For all the hand wringing about the blue clay, this year's Mutua Madrid Open wrapped with two rather familiar figures holding the rather odd Ion Tiriac trophy. Roger Federer and Serena Williams were crowned the champions earlier today at the Caja Magica. Here are our final thoughts from the 2012 Mutua Madrid Open.
In today's 24 hour news cycle, sports fans tend to have rather short memories. Before the glass cut her foot, before the pulmonary embolism that almost cost her her life, Serena Williams was the #1 player in the world, some eight years after she first claimed that throne. The intervening period had been a mix of highs and lows, the "Serena Slam" of 2002-03, the murder of her sister Yetunde Price, forays into acting and fashion, The Henin-Hardenne Hex, the first return to No. 1 in 2008, the foot fault heard round the world, and so on, and so on. In 2010, Williams had won the Australian Open and Wimbledon and then came closer than any of us would care to admit to never stepping on the court again.
Since returning, Serena has taken a bit of different tack, she's not just playing the majors as she was criticized for doing over chunks of her career. She's going out and winning tour events, this year she's won the Family Circle Cup in Charleston and has added the Mutua Madrid Open to that haul. Today, she all but embarrassed the World No. 1 Victoria Azarenka who unfortunately had one of her worst performances on the court this year at the same time that Serena was unbottling vintage.
In case any of us had forgotten, Serena reminded the press what her goal is in no uncertain terms. "Well," Serena said, "I don't play to be number 2." She also acknowledged that she's not alone in wanting to be the best. "I don't think Victoria plays to be number 2 or Maria does," Serena stated. "We all play to be the best. We are all out here to do the best that we can do and if that is number one, that is my ultimate goal. I think a lot of people feel that way."
Serena's best has been number 1 in the past. If she can stay healthy, we're pretty sure she can be number 1 again in the not so distant future.
Any serious discussion on this year's tournament has to include (as much as we are loath to go there, yet again) a discussion of the playing surface. Almost every account of the blue clay surface characterized it as quite slippery and playing more like a fast hardcourt than a clay court. Recent accounts indicate that the way the surface was laid down and rolled tight was responsible for the lack of traction; the speed of the court, we can't be sure about. Whereas initially players were concerned about the tradition of red clay (not to mention their opinions) not being respected, as they actually got to play on the surface, the concerns shifted to injury fears and the tournament's diminished ability to be considered a valid warm up for Roland Garros.
Tournament owner Ion Tiriac has been adamant that "blue clay is the future," stating that the improved visuals for viewers outweighs concerns that the players have made vocally and repeatedly both before and during the event. Look, my nose always follows the money. My (wholly unsubstantiated to this point) belief is that title sponsor Mutua Madrilena wrote a rather large check to Tiriac to ensure the courts of their tournament would be blue in synergy with their logo. The change helping further leverage the alignment between the Spanish insurance & investment company and the tennis tournament that bears its name.
What Mutua Madrilena got for their investment this year was a massive PR problem. Tournament organizers and sponsors, who generally are politely applauded/half ignored during trophy presentations, were whistled at and booed vociferously by the Madrid crowd. Superstars Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal, apart from exiting the event uncharacteristically early this year, have stated in no uncertain terms that they will not play Madrid next year if the courts are the same. If the brand indeed wanted to be a bigger part of the event, they got their wish, but surely not in the way they brainstormed.
Go back to the traditional red clay next year and then schedule an exhibition on a refined blue clay later in 2013 as a test for a blue clay return to Madrid in 2014.
Roger Federer is already having his best year in a few, that continued today, as he won the Mutua Madrid Open 3-6, 7-5, 7-5 over Tomas Berdych. The win boosted the Swiss great back to No. 2 in the ATP rankings and ensured Federer would win at least two ATP Masters 1000 events in a year for the first time since 2009. Since the US Open Federer is 45-3, his only losses being to Rafael Nadal at the Australian Open, Andy Roddick at the Sony Ericsson Open and John Isner in Davis Cup.
Coming into 2012, Federer repeatedly mentioned being excited at the prospect of playing the Olympics at Wimbledon, but it's increasingly apparent that Federer will continue to compete for big titles all year. Perhaps some of his success in Madrid can be attributed to the surface, which was said to play like a fast hardcourt, Federer's best surface. Alternatively, you can posit that once Nadal and Djokovic said no mas to the terre battue bleu (which Andy Murray didn't even bother to show up for) Federer's chances of hoisting the trophy increased manifold. We would agree with both assertions. However, the biggest reason Federer won this tournament was his attitude in light of the challenge.
Rather than complain about the conditions, Federer put his head down and set about to work. Any event that made Nadal and Djokovic uncomfortable had to be seen as a welcoming environment for the Swiss. Federer is 28-3 in 2012, only facing Nadal twice (they split their meetings) and not meeting Djokovic at all. As his rivals have become a bit less consistent, Federer has maintained his level and in doing so re-energized the race for No. 1. In fact, Federer, Djokovic & Nadal all mathematically could leave Roland Garros with the No. 1 ranking, setting up a summer where the ranking could be traded back and forth like a hot potato.
While Djokovic has seen his level drop following a stellar 2011 season and Nadal has been typically up and down, Federer has been steady, taking advantage of his rivals dips and maintaining an aura over everyone outside of the top three that keep them from truly believing they can win. After Berdych fell today he said of Federer, "I am sad that I was not able to beat him, but on the other hand it is something special that I lost to him. That's how I see it. He just showed what a great champion he is...." After two long years of telling everyone he's not done yet, Federer's getting the wins to back up that claim. The 70 titles haven't dulled his desire to end the week with the big trophy and in weeks where his biggest rivals don't show up (mentally or physically) he usually does. The thing about that is, if a guy continues to build that kind of momentum, he's going to be ever harder to stop going forward, assuming his body cooperates. When asked whether he would play next week's ATP Masters 1000 in Rome, Federer said, "The body feels it when you come back from six weeks. It does hurt a bit so I just have to make sure I make the right decision come Tuesday, Wednesday. I hope I can play but I'll definitely travel there tomorrow." I think he's there, and building off the momentum of a week on the terre battue bleu, I think he's dangerous.

The Matua Madrid Open was a spectacular tennis tournament which was organized in 2012 for the first time. The unique feature about the tournament was the color of the clay court on which the matches were played and the blue color clay court was a treat for the eyes. Most of the people were surprised seeing Serena Williams lift the women's open title in spite of her previous injuries. While in the men's open category Roger Federer became the first and currently the only man to win a tournament on blue clay. Overall this was a very memorable tournament.
