Gordon Lee (died January 13, 2013) was an American comic book store owner from Rome, Georgia, who is most famous for having been charged with distributing obscene material to a minor in connection with the Free Comic Book Day on Halloween, 2004. The Comic Book Legal Defense Fund was heavily involved in Lee's defense. Lee was previously convicted on another obscenity charge.

1994 obscenity conviction
Gordon Lee was the owner of the comic book store Legends, which was based in Rome, Georgia. Lee was convicted on February 18, 1993 of "distributing obscene materials" for selling the pornographic comics Final Taboo and Debbie Does Dallas to adult customers. He was fined $1,000 and sentenced to 12 months; both were suspended on payment of $250. Lee made appeals to the court, but they were denied by the Georgia Court of Appeals and Georgia Supreme Court in 1994. The Comic Book Legal Defense Fund assisted with fees for the trial and the appeal.

On September 3, 1993, Lee filed suit for the return of inventory seized in conjunction with the obscenity case. The comics seizure had occurred on November 1, 1991, the day the police received a complaint about comics that were purchased at Legends. Around 300 books were taken as evidence under a search warrant, but were not returned until July 29, 1994, when the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia issued a ruling ordering the district attorney to return the inventory within ten days.

Charged with selling to a minor
Lee entered the news again after the Halloween 2004 Free Comic Book Day giveaway at a street fair in Rome. Lee's shop gave away thousands of free comics on that day, but a copy of Alternative Comics #2 was unintentionally included in the giveaway.

Alternative Comics #2 is an anthology containing an excerpt from the story The Salon by Nick Bertozzi.  The story portrays Pablo Picasso's first meeting with the fellow cubist Georges Braque, during which Picasso is depicted as nude in a non-sexual context. (The CBLDF has made statements that the comic is historically accurate in this depiction.)

The copy of that comic that was unintentionally given away was handed to a minor, whose parent filed a complaint with the police. Upon learning of the error, Lee admitted that a mistake was made and offered to make a public apology for the first of many times. That apology was rejected, and days later, Lee was arrested. The minor in question was originally described as a nine-year-old boy, but various accounts by the District Attorney's office later stated that the comic was given either to the boy's six-year-old brother or to both boys.

Lee later stated "Though I am willing to apologize for this particular art book getting in the hands that found it offensive, I will adamantly agree that the book is not 'harmful to children' or 'obscene.' In my opinion, this book is no more offensive then viewing the beautiful paintings of the Sistine Chapel or reading one of the best selling books with stories of sex, lust and nudity known as the Bible."

District Attorney Leigh Patterson charged Lee with two felony counts and five misdemeanors. The two felony charges were brought under the Distribution of Material Depicting Nudity or Sexual Conduct law, which requires materials containing nudity to be distributed in a labelled envelope. Penalties for violating this law include one to three years in prison and/or fines of up to $10,000 US. The five misdemeanors were presented under the Distribution of Material Harmful to Minors law, which makes it a misdemeanor to supply minors any material containing nudity.

CBLDF involvement
Lee approached Comic Book Legal Defense Fund board member Peter David for help late in January 2005. The CBLDF Board of Directors voted unanimously to financially support Lee's defense, putting a defense team in place within days.

In May 2005, the CBLDF submitted four motions to dismiss the counts Lee faced, challenging the constitutionality of both laws. A hearing on those motions was held on December 1, 2005, during which all charges under the Distribution of Material Depicting Nudity or Sexual Conduct law were dropped. Two of the remaining misdemeanor charges were dropped as well, and the three remaining charges were consolidated into only two. The remaining charges were for "distributing a book, pamphlet, magazine, and printed matter containing pictures, drawings and visual representation and images of a person a portion of the human body which depict sexually explicit nudity, sexual conduct, and sadomasochistic abuse and which is harmful to minors;" and for knowingly furnishing and disseminating to a minor materials "containing explicit and detailed verbal descriptions and narrative accounts of sexual excitement, sexual conduct, and sadomasochistic abuse and which taken as a whole is harmful to minors." The Fund maintained  that the material did not meet the criteria as charged.

Delays in the trial
By November 2007, the CBLDF had spent over $80,000 on Lee's defense after taking the case in early 2005, and estimated costs reaching six figures by the end of the trial. The case has been ready for trial three times, but has been delayed each time.

Re-filing of charges
On April 2, 2006, 18 hours before Lee's jury trial, the District Attorney's team informed the defense team that all charges were being dropped against Lee based on a mistake: The recipient of the comic was not the nine-year-old originally referenced in the charges; it was his six-year-old brother. The same charges were immediately re-filed, but with the child listed. The defense team expressed shock at this statement, which meant the case (and defense preparations for it) had been proceeding for 18 months under faulty charges. Also, the prosecutor's admission meant that false testimony had been presented under oath at the pre-trial hearing. Lead counsel Alan Begner protested "How did a year and a half of statements based on one set of facts get changed at the last minute to another set of facts?"

New arraignment and additional delays
On May 19, 2006, a new arraignment was held, again charging the same two misdemeanors; this time both the six-year-old and nine-year-old boys were cited as victims. The CBLDF filed several procedural motions and motions to dismiss on May 30. The motions included allegations of prosecutorial misconduct in connection with what were now characterized as false allegations, as well as allegations of the District Attorney's office allowing untruthful testimony to be presented under oath, causing Lee and his defense counsel to incur unnecessary expense by requiring a change in trial date on too-short notice. Patterson said that her office had "been honest and above board throughout this case. We forwarded new information to the defense as quickly as we got it."

On June 2, 2006, prosecutors filed yet another new indictment, modifying the second misdemeanor charge. This marked the third time Lee had been formally charged for this one incident. Although new indictments were issued, the first two sets of charges were never formally dropped. The CBLDF team again filed motions, this time in response to all three sets of accusations, but they were all dismissed, including those alleging prosecutorial misconduct.

The trial was postponed again on August 15, 2007, due to the illness of presiding Judge Larry Salmon.

Mistrial
Opening statements in the new trial began on November 5, 2007, but quickly resulted in a mistrial. Prior to the opening statements, the defense requested that the judge bar prosecutors from commenting on Lee's previous conviction in 1994. However, the prosecution noted in opening statements that Lee told deputies during the 2004 incident he had "been through this before and beat it". The district attorney's office planned to bring the case back to Floyd Superior Court the following year.  At this point, the CBLDF had spent over $80,000 on Lee's defense.

Case dismissed
On Friday, 18 April 2008, it was announced in author Neil Gaiman's blog that the case had been dismissed.

Effects of the case
The charges against Lee have unnerved many shop owners who are concerned about distributing materials that could result in similar charges. One store owner in Georgia stated that "We are a smaller community, very similar to the community that Gordon is in. We will special order [controversial comic Lost Girls] for anybody, but we will not have it out on display."

Later life and death
Lee entered the news for unrelated reasons when he chased two women who have since been charged with stealing two puzzles based on the movie The Nightmare Before Christmas from his store. In an attempt to stop the women, Lee jumped on the hood of their car, and was thrown off, unhurt, after riding on the hood for a block. The women were later charged with shoplifting, and the driver was charged with aggravated assault.

Lee died on the afternoon of January 13, 2013, from complications stemming from a series of strokes. He was 54 years old.

Brand focus: Aloft Hotels
The UAE's 'Project:Aloft Star' music talent search comes to a conclusion at Aloft Abu Dhabi
by Diane Fermin Roeder
The UAEs Project: Aloft Star winner Stephon LaMar (centre) with (left to right) Virgin Radios James, Sony Music Entertainment Middle East general manager Mike Fairburn, Maz from Virgin Radio and DJ Bliss at Aloft Abu Dhabi.
New Carolina native Stephon LaMar emerged as the 2017 winner of Aloft Hotels' music talent search 'Project: Aloft Star', organised in collaboration with Sony Music Entertainment Middle East, after an exciting evening of live musical performances by the competition's four finalists on November 10 at Relax@12, the rooftop lounge at Aloft Abu Dhabi.
Strumming a guitar and crooning an original song composition, LaMar competed against three other finalists: Yousef Khalil, Iva Georgieva and Danny Aridi. His talent ultimately impressed the panel of judges, comprising personalities from the UAE's music industry, including Mike Fairburn, general manager of Sony Music Entertainment Middle East, artist DJ Bliss, and Maz and James from Virgin Radio 104.4.
LaMar, who moved to Dubai from Brooklyn, New York in 2013, is a self-taught musician who has been performing in clubs and venues throughout the Middle East region, including a starring role in Dubai's dinner theatre show "Alice: Curioser and Curioser". According to his Facebook page, LaMar has performed opening acts for such established artists as Enrique Iglesias and Florence and The Machine.
Speaking to Hotelier Express during his night of triumph, LaMar said: "Events like this are so important for the UAE and for the Middle East because there is so much undiscovered talent throughout this region and there's not that many platforms where people get to perform original music, original compositions."
As the winner of 'Project: Aloft Star', LaMar is guaranteed a distribution deal from Sony Music Entertainment Middle East, as well as a styling session, a chance to record his own music video, a mentoring session with industry producers, lyricists, choreographers, and more, including multi-platform publicity opportunities in the region.
Aloft Hotels' 'Project: Aloft Star' annual competition to discover musical talent kicked off on October 1 when bands, artists, and songwriters based in the UAE submitted original song compositions. After receiving over 130 submissions, three of the four finalists were selected by the judges while the fourth was voted in by the public.
Since 2008, Aloft has been putting the spotlight on rising stars, offering an ongoing music concert series at every one of the brand's 126 hotels.'Project: Aloft Star' promotes the brand's commitment to supporting self-expression by identifying emerging music talent from around the globe, offering artists a chance to kick start their careers and take centre stage at the hotel brand.
Marriott International area manager Abu Dhabi – SPG Hotels and Aloft Abu Dhabi general manager Michel Nader said: "It is extremely important for Aloft Hotels to organise 'Project: Aloft Star' because in the DNA of the brand, our hotels provide a platform for new musical artists to be discovered. These are people who don't necessarily have a chance to showcase their music and Aloft as a brand speaks to these people."
Of the partnership with Aloft Hotels, Sony Music Entertainment Middle East general manager Mike Fairburn said: "Aloft Hotels came to us because they share our vision in supporting talent. If you look at what they've done around the world in all their hotel locations, in the US, Europe and Asia, they support new, breakthrough artists.

A search is presented for heavy vectorlike quarks (VLQs) that couple only to light quarks in proton-proton collisions at s=8 TeV at the LHC. The data were collected by the CMS experiment during 2012 and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb-1. Both single and pair production of VLQs are considered. The single-production search is performed for down-type VLQs (electric charge of magnitude 1/3), while the pair-production search is sensitive to up-type (charge of magnitude 2/3) and down-type VLQs. Final states with at least one muon or one electron are considered. No significant excess over standard model expectations is observed, and lower limits on the mass of VLQs are derived. The lower limits range from 400 to 1800 GeV, depending on the single-production cross section and the VLQ branching fractions B to W, Z, and Higgs bosons. When considering pair production alone, VLQs with masses below 845 GeV are excluded for B(W)=1.0, and below 685 GeV for B(W)=0.5, B(Z)=B(H)=0.25. The results are more stringent than those previously obtained for single and pair production of VLQs coupled to light quarks.

Could This Be Chris Jans' Best Coaching Job Yet?
Mark Few, Bill Self, John Calipari…Chris Jans. That's it. That's the list of coaches with a record above .800 at their respective schools. In his fourth year as a Division I head coach, Chris Jans has won 103 games while losing just 29. Now, with the regular season wrapping up, Jans and the New Mexico State Aggies are just one win away from completing the program's first complete sweep of the WAC.
The numbers are impressive on their own, and place Jans amongst an elite group of winning coaches. But the journey to this point has not been without its challenges. After the heartbreaking 78-77 loss to Auburn in the first round of the NCAA Tournament last year, the Aggies had high expectations, bringing back a senior-laden squad on a mission.
Then the worst possible thing came roaring through Las Cruces. The injury-bug, in all its glory, showed absolutely no mercy on the Aggies. Senior point guard, and the lynchpin of the offense, AJ Harris had a fractured finger to start the season. Starting wing, Clayton Henry, another important part of the 2018-19 Aggies team, went down with a torn ligament in his thumb.
As if losing two key returning seniors wasn't bad enough, transfers Wilfried Likayi and Dajour Joseph both suffered season-ending injuries before the season even began. Four players who were expected to contribute big minutes, all lost before playing a minute. Chris Jans had a crisis he had been lucky to avoid so far at New Mexico State.
The non-conference portion of New Mexico State's schedule was brutal. Starting with a rivalry loss to a rival UTEP, followed by a blowout at Arizona and a sweep by in-state rival New Mexico, the Aggies looked vulnerable. For the first time in Jans' tenure, the Aggies were at or under .500 multiple times throughout non-conference play. Chemistry on either side of the ball was a struggle. And, in the eyes of many, this New Mexico State team was more vulnerable than it had been for many years.
Ending the non-conference slate at 9-6, all eyes in the WAC were on New Mexico State. If another team was going to take down the perennial WAC powerhouse this seemed to finally be the year.
Enter the winning ways of the coach affectionately known in Las Cruces as Jans the Man. In his first gig as a D1 head coach at Bowling Green, Jans turned a Falcons team that had not had a winning record in over five seasons into a 21-12 contender in the MAC. At New Mexico State, Jans has records of 28-6, 30-5, and currently 24-6. On Thursday, March 5, Jans has the chance to complete his first undefeated conference season.
After avenging last season's opener with a 15-point victory over California Baptist, the Aggies have reeled off 14 more conference wins and have not lost a regular season conference game since January 3, 2019.
Although the numbers are gaudy, the reality is that many conference games have been all out wars. On the road, Jans and the Aggie squad have squeaked away with wins at Seattle, UTRGV, and CSU-Bakersfield. At home, Utah Valley nearly did something unthinkable. However, a buzzer-beater three from redshirt sophomore Jabari Rice helped the Aggies escape with a win. Not to mention, injuries continued to plague the Aggies; taking out Trevelin Queen and Terrell Brown for a handful of games throughout conference play.

It is clear that the 2019-20 season has not necessarily gone according to plan. No one could have predicted the early season injuries or the early season slump New Mexico State found themselves in. When teams face adversity the common denominator that tends to pull them through is found in coaching. Although every win is important, not all are created equal. Some might say the tougher games that NM State has survived this year show that they are not unbeatable. Some might say winning those more difficult games is what makes New Mexico State that much better.
However, the sense of invincibility that Jans seems to instill in his team has proven to be invaluable. Not only do his teams win a lot, they feel like they can never lose. Pulling a team that was reeling from losses on the court. Managing an array of injuries to newcomers and veterans. Managing egos and building a culture of win first. These are all part of the plan for Jans in building something special in Las Cruces. It is also what makes 2019-20 special.
Chris Jans proves himself as a coach night in and night out who knows how to win. Jans has also become a proven leader. It is easy to claim that this is Jans' best coaching job yet. The W/L record might not be what New Mexico State expects each year. However, rescuing a team from what seemed like the brink of a fall-out year, Jans has pushed the limits. And the push is paying off.
Jans was the early and consistent favorite to repeat as WAC Coach of the Year. That's no surprise. It's no surprise also what Jans continues to build in the desert of the Mesilla Valley.

Six in a Row for Mo! Kenyan Team Tactics Not Enough To Stop The Invincible Mo Farah in Men's 10,000
2015 IAAF World Track and Field Championships Beijing
Bird's Nest - Beijing, China
View LetsRun.com event coverage
American Galen Rupp Finishes 5th in 27:08.91 – 4th fastest American 10,000 in History
By LetsRun.com
BEIJING – The athletes in next Saturday's 5,000-meter final might want to reach out to Lex Luthor and see if he has any spare kryptonite lying around. Because after Mo Farah's victory in the 10,000 meters tonight at the 2015 IAAF World Championships, his opponents are running out of ways to challenge him.
Since Farah's defeat in the 10,000 at the IAAF World Championships four years ago in Daegu — where Farah, still unaccustomed to his role as the favorite, made a tactical error by making his move too early and the unheralded Ibrahim Jeilan took advantage — Farah has run six 5,000/10,000 finals between Worlds and the Olympics and won them all.
Until tonight, no one had tried to make Farah win in a truly honest race. His 5,000 titles were won in 13:23, 13:41 and 13:26; his 10,000s in 27:30 and 27:21. That 10,000 in Daegu was the fastest of them all (Jeilan won in 27:13), quick but not ridiculously so.
That changed tonight, as the Kenyan trio of Geoffrey Kamworor, Paul Tanui and Bedan Karoki traded off the pace for the first 23 ¾ laps and threw everything they could at Farah before Farah finally seized the lead for good. Despite the Kenyans' best efforts to drive the pace on a warm, breezy 79-degree night at the Bird's Nest, Farah's trademark kick was still there when he needed it as he produced a 54.2-second last lap that no one — not Kamworor, not Tanui, perhaps not Superman himself — could match. The time was faster than his last 5 World/Olympic finals (27:01.13, the third-fastest winning time in the history of these championships) but the outcome was the same, another gold medal for Farah to add to his formidable collection.
Article continues below player
Kamworor, the World Cross Country champion in March, led more laps than anyone else and was rewarded for his efforts with the silver (27:01.76) with Tanui (3rd, 27:02.83) and Karoki (4th, 27:04.77) following close behind. American Galen Rupp, the only other man to hang with the leaders until the bell, came through in fifth (27:08.91), but whether it was the heat, the fast pace or something else, his kick wasn't there and he could only close in 61 seconds for the final lap.
Farah leads at the bell
Kamworor went to the lead from the gun and it quickly became apparent that the Kenyan talk of team tactics, unlike the environment in the Bird's Nest, was not hot air. After a modest 2:18 first 800, Karoki took the lead on lap three and reeled off a 65.96; the pace would not rise above 66.00 for the remainder of the race. At 3200 meters (8:47), Farah still remained situated toward the back of the pack, but as he realized the Kenyans meant business, he worked his way toward the front as the leaders hit 5,000 in 13:40.82.
After another pair of 64-second laps, the lead group, 13 men at 4400 meters, was down to five a mile later — Kamworor, Tanui, Rupp, Farah and Karoki. And that's how it stayed until the bell. Karoki and Kamworor alternated 64- and 65-second laps like clockwork, with Tanui occasionally straying to the front only to be overhauled by one of his countrymen within 200 meters.
Shortly before 7,400 meters, Farah briefly tried to take the lead but Kamworor was having none of it, responding immediately by passing him right back. Farah tried this twice more, on laps 22 and 23, but both times Kamworor's response was just as swift.
The good news for the Kenyans was that Farah was not dictating the race as he often has in the past. The bad news is that with 500 meters to go, they had created zero separation between themselves and the 3:28 1500 man Farah. It was at that point that Farah moved in earnest, and this time Kamworor could not retake the lead as a 61-second penultimate lap brought the five leaders to the bell with Farah in the lead. Farah briefly lost his balance as he clipped Kamworor as they maneuvered around a lapped runner on the first turn of the final lap, and though he was momentarily slowed, he never surrendered the lead. With 300 to go, Farah hit the gas again and Kamworor was the only one to go with him at first, though Tanui had joined them by the end of the back straight. Karoki could not answer, while Rupp could not reach the gear he showed in London three years ago and fell off the back.
Farah 6 in a Row
With 150 to go, the stage was set for a thrilling finish, as Tanui was accelerating rapidly around the outside of Farah and Kamworor. Could he actually swing by Farah?
No. In a finish that mirrored the Prefontaine Classic three months earlier, Farah was simply too good in the final 100 and ran away from Tanui and Kamworor, celebrating passionately before even crossing the finish line. Tanui and Kamworor inverted their places from Pre (appropriate because this time it was Kamworor, not Tanui, who did the bulk of the work) while Karoki managed fourth and Rupp came home fifth.
Abrar Osman of Eritrea was sixth in 27:43.21, over 34 seconds back of Rupp. The other Americans, Hassan Mead and Shadrack Kipchirchir ran together almost the entire race and appropriately finished with the same exact time (28:16:30), Mead barely edging Kipchirchir for 15th place.

One week from tonight, Farah will toe the line in the 5,000-meter final with a chance to become the first man to complete the 5,000/10,000 double at three consecutive global championships. While his PRs (12:53/26:46) aren't close to all-time greats like Bekele or Haile Gebrselassie, if Farah can win the double again in Rio next year — giving him four straight 5,000/10,000 doubles — we'll have to revisit the argument we had in February between ourselves about whether Farah can be considered the Greatest of All Time even if the double is easier now than it was back in Haile's time as there are no rounds in the 10,000.
But let's not get ahead of ourselves. In this sport, we are constantly looking forward and sometimes it clouds what athletes have already accomplished. Three straight global 10,000 titles is something that only Bekele and Geb had ever pulled off, and anytime you're in their company, you know you've done something special.
Farah faced immense pressure this year, not only as the defending world and Olympic champ, but also because of his link to Alberto Salazar, who faced drug accusations earlier this summer. For him to come through and defend his title, even as the heavy favorite, was incredibly impressive.
The win tonight definitely enhanced Farah's legacy as critics had pointed he'd never won a truly honest race – that cannot be said any more.
Most combined 5,000/10,000 wins at Olympics/Worlds, all-time
Kenenisa Bekele, 8
Mo Farah, 6
Haile Gebrselassie, 6
Lasse Viren, 4
Emil Zatopek, 3
Paavo Nurmi, 3
Now that's a list.
QT#2: Mo Farah is the oldest 10,000 meter world champion (again)
When Farah won gold in Moscow two years ago at age 30, he became the oldest man to take home the 10,000 title at the World Championships. Now 32, Farah broke that record again with his performance tonight.
It's been said before, but it bears repeating: Mo Farah's ascendance to the greatest distance runner in the world is totally unprecedented. Prior to Farah, the oldest-ever world champion in the men's 10,000 was Kenenisa Bekele at age 27 in 2009. Haile Gebrselassie won his last global 10,000 title at the 2000 Olympics at age 27 as well.
When Farah was 27 in 2010, he had never won a world title and was just starting to join the ranks of the global elite, claiming double European gold at 5,000 and 10,000 and breaking the British record at 5,000 by running 12:57. The next year, at age 28, Farah truly broke out by running 12:53, 26:46 and winning Worlds in the 5,000.
The point: essentially all of Farah's major accomplishments have come at 27 or later — an age when most world-class 10,000 guys are already cooked. However, if you factor in that African ages are not always reliable (and the 12 winners of the 10,000 at Worlds before Farah were all African), that may help partially explain Farah's greatness at an advanced age. Some of the previous African champs (like Haile G) were likely older than their stated age.
At the post-race press conference, Farah said he remembers watching Kenenise Bekele dominate world cross country and hoping he could just win one medal one day. Once he won, he has more than kept winning them, but he said it isn't easy.
He also said if he was designing a tactic to beat himself, the fast team type race was one he would have tried. Farah said he attempted to actually take the lead a few times to try and get the Kenyans to go even faster to string it out just a little because he felt jostled by the Kenyans.

QT #3: The Kenyan team tactics weren't enough to beat Farah – But Kenyans Considered Them a Success
Karoki was the lone Kenyan not to come away with a medal tonight but you wouldn't have been able to tell that based on his post-race reaction.
"It was very good….I am very happy for working as a team," Karoki said.
He said that he was pleased that Kenya secured 2-3-4, but I countered by asking if he was a little disappointed that none of them could defeat Farah.
"No no no we are not disappointed. But next year, God willing, in the Olympics we are going to train hard and see whether we can conquer."
When we asked Kamworor what he needs to do to beat Farah, he simply said "sharpen the speed." Kamworor's best bet to beat Farah is just to let time pass. Kamworor is only 22 and this was his first world championship on the track. He's about to enter his prime. Farah is 32.
So just let time pass or get the IAAF to hold worlds at altitude – Kamworor would be favored at altitude in our mind.
We also spoke to Kamworor on video and he said his focus will be on beating Farah on the track in Rio next year even though after the race it was announced Kamworor will be running this year's New York City Marathon. Kamworor says he is best at cross-country, but he also is very good at the roads (world half-marathon champ) and now the track. He was trying to become the first with a global 10,000m, XC and world-half title.
He also said at the post-race press conference while he was pleased with his run, "Competition is about winning."
QT #4: Galen Rupp has nothing to be ashamed of
After the race, Rupp sat dejectedly on the track by the finish line only spoke briefly to the press. The interview is embedded below and he said he was disappointed he didn't medal.
"I'm definitely disappointed. I'm not going to lie. I was really hoping for a top three finish at least. I just didn't quite have it today – nothing more than that," said Rupp.
When you've medalled before, anything short of another medal is going to be viewed as a bit of failure, but maybe it shouldn't be. The fact of the matter is in less than ideal conditions, Rupp ran the 4th-fastest 5000 in American history – a time that only one American (Chris Solinsky) has ever bettered.
Rupp actually ran faster tonight in warm conditions than he did just 5 plus years ago on that special night in Palo Alto when Chris Solinsky ran 26:59.60 under ideal conditions and Rupp also dipped under Meb Kelfezighi's old American record of 27:13.98. We asked Farah at the press conference what the difference between himself and Rupp was, and he said not much, mainly experience.
The Fastest 6 10,000s in US History
1. 26:44.36 Galen Rupp USA 08.05.86 1 Eugene 2014
2. 26:48.00 Galen Rupp USA 08.05.86 3 Bruxelles 2011
3. 26:59.60 Chris Solinsky USA 05.12.84 1r1 Palo Alto 2010
4. 27:08.91 Galen Rupp USA 08.05.86 5 Beijing Tonight
5. 27:10.74 Galen Rupp USA 08.05.86 4r1 Palo Alto 2010
6. 27:13.98 Mebrahtom Keflezighi USA 05.05.75 4rA Palo Alto 2001
The race tonight was just a higher quality race than was the 2012 Olympic 10,000 final. In London, in a 27:30 race, Mo Farah won by running his last 1600 in 4:08 and closing in 53.42. Tonight in a 27 flat race, Farah's last 1600 was 4:05.6 and he his last 400 was 54.2.
QT #5: Hassan Mead was disappointed with his 15th-place finish
The other two Americans in this one – Hassan Mead and Shadrack Kipchirchir – both actually ran the same time (28:16.30) and finished 15th and 16th respectively. We caught up with former Minnesota star Hassan Mead, now with the Oregon Track Club, and he was disappointed with his showing as he said he's in great shape. He said he was still with the main pack until about 4k when he developed a side-stitch that he thought might have been the result of sipping too much water. The final 6k was tough with a stitch. As for the conditions, Mead said he wasn't shocked by the 27:01 winning time. He said he thought the winning time coming in might be around 26:50 and he said he was hoping to run 27:20-30 (a time that would in hindsight have placed him 6th). Mead's season isn't over. He'll head to Brussels to run a 5000 and then hopefully end his season at the 5th Avenue mile. Mead doesn't think a 5000 pb is likely in Brussels as he's been working on strength, not speed but thinks sub 13:10 is doable.
Separate audio interview with Mead here:
Paul Tanui Bronze
Tanui got his second 10,000m bronze and was making a big move with 150m to go after earlier in the race being unable to hold the lead for a full lap at times. The difference? The wind. Tanui said the wind really bothered him as he is a smaller guy.

The Seahawks hosted Monday Night Football games at the Kingdome twelve times in their history and were 9–3 in those games. The Seahawks and the Oakland/Los Angeles Raiders played five Monday Night games in the Dome in the 1980s with Seattle holding a 3–2 edge including a 37–0 blowout victory in 1986. The next year, in 1987, Bo Jackson of the Los Angeles Raiders rushed for 221 yards, the most ever on MNF, and scored 2 touchdowns. One of his scores was a 91-yard touchdown and the other was a historic plowing into Seahawks high-profile rookie linebacker Brian "The Boz" Bosworth.

Launching the Game of the Year.
When we kicked off the Bioshock Infinite project – the third in the Bioshock series from Irrational Games – the game had already won 85 pre-release awards. The first-person shooter game was breakthrough in terms of its intricate historical fiction storyline, unprecedented setting, and visual design. Our challenge was to create a global digital presence that would help build hype and promote its release, as well as serve as an ongoing content engine to support the game after launch.
As avid gamers ourselves, we couldn't wait to give the impressive game an equally impressive and effective web presence. We explored a visually immersive experience featuring complex visuals and Steampunk-themed CSS animation that echoed the game's ambience.
The final direction we moved forward with embraced a simpler, blog-driven approach. Built on the Expression Engine framework, we were able to provide a highly customized design with CMS access for the client to update as new images and information were released.
On its face, this deceptively simple look masked a myriad of complex development and CMS challenges. The localized site supported 7 languages, 25 countries/regions, and links to multiple retail partners within those countries who were accepting advance orders for the game.
In an effort to build interest in the highly anticipated game, we designed a Facebook voting experience to drive excitement for the new trailer release. To further pique interest, the voting campaign was preceded by a Steampunk-inspired countdown clock that ran for a week prior to the reveal.
Gamers are motivated by exclusives, and we capitalized on that fact by featuring limited quantity Collector's Editions.
Features of the microsite include a 360° rotating statue, an artful magnifying glass, and an interactive booklet. As with the original site, the microsite is localized for 7 languages. Our final product accommodated the many spacial challenges of multiple languages.
Within the first two months of its release, Bioshock Infinite sold over 3.7 million retail copies worldwide and went on to become one of the best reviewed games of 2013.

The Charles Dorflinger House
109 Charles Street, White Mills The large Queen Anne house at 109 Charles Street was built in 1903 as a wedding gift for Christian Dorflinger's youngest son Charles. He had married Cornelia Decker of White Mills in the ballroom of the St. Charles Hotel in 1901. Charles was the general manager of the C. Dorflinger and Sons glass factory. He and Cornelia spent the next thirty-six years in the house. Charles often interviewed prospective employees in the spacious central hall and from the rear windows was able to overlook both the garden and the factory. Joseph McCaffrey and his wife Pauline bought the property in 1950. In 1985 it was sold to Gerald and Gina Williams, and in 1989 to Richard and Marjory Kline. The Klines did an extensive and thoughtful renovation of both the house and gardens. Ornate parquetry floors, Italian tile fireplace surrounds, and stained glass windows embellish the spacious house. The carriage house at the back of the property is believed to be older than the house and had apartments for household help. A portion of the original Dorflinger wrought iron fence now surrounds the Torrey building at the Wayne County Historical Society in Honesdale.

Shenzi, Banzai e Ed sono un trio di iene macchiate apparse nei film di animazione Il re leone e Il re leone 3 - Hakuna Matata e nella serie animata Timon e Pumbaa.

Nomi
In lingua swahili, shenzi può significare "bastarda inutile", "barbarica", o "rozza", mentre banzai, kamari e azizi significano "rintanare", "forte" e "raggio di luna" rispettivamente. Ed fu nominato dopo Ed McMahon de The Tonight Show.

Caratterizzazione
Alex Kupershmidt, l'artista che animò le iene, spiegò come gli fu incaricato di disegnare personaggi simili a "pagliacci impazziti", comici ma contemporaneamente maligni, mentre Jim Cummings, che prestò la sua voce per Ed, descrisse il trio come un "coro greco" che incoraggia le ambizioni nefaste di Scar.

Shenzi fu concepita come un personaggio "scafato", distinguendosi dalle altre due iene dalla mancanza di "barbetta" attorno al muso, una frangia vistosa che le pende sulla faccia e macchie attorno agli occhi che evocano l'ombretto. A Banzai fu dato un atteggiamento da "pazzo frenetico dagli occhi spalancati", e si distingue per la sua impazienza ed ingordigia, essendo perpetuamente alla ricerca di risse e di cibo. Ed, invece, è la "iena ridens" archetipa, privo di dialogo al di fuori delle risate isteriche. Strabico e apparentemente mentalmente disabile, ha le orecchie mutilate e la lingua quasi sempre penzolante.

Il remake de Il re leone del 2019 rappresenta le iene come più minacciose che comiche, e Banzai e Ed vengono rinnominati Kamari e Azizi. Florence Kasumba, che diede voce a Shenzi, descrisse il suo personaggio come "qualcuno a cui piace avere potere, ma è anche molto protettiva, tanto quanto Sarabi [la madre di Simba], farebbe di tutto per proteggere la sua famiglia". La descrisse inoltre come qualcuno che fa zittire tutti per la paura quando entra in scena, ma che sia contemporaneamente un personaggio insoddisfatto della sua vita. Nella cartella stampa del film, Kamari viene descritto come una iena furba ed impulsiva, dotata di un umorismo tagliente. Keegan-Michael Key, che doppiò il personaggio, lo definì come un soldato leale delle iene che si sente essere secondo in comando. Azizi, invece, è privo della furbizia dei suoi fratelli, essendo incapace di capire le sfumature, le metafore e il sarcasmo.

Creazione

Il re leone (1994)
Le iene non sono presenti nel primo abbozzo del film, intitolato King of the Kalahari, scritto nel 1988 da Tom Disch, con il ruolo antagonistico essendo svolto da un branco di babbuini. In due abbozzi successivi scritti nel 1990 da J.T. Allen e il duo Allan e Ross Bass, le iene sono le antagoniste principali, guidate da un capobranco nominato Banagi che, secondo l'abbozzo di Allen, avrebbe avuto una voce evocativa di Sydney Greenstreet, e che sarebbe stato falso e seducente, usando la sua astuzia per convincere Scar ad uccidere Mufasa ed impossessarsi del trono, manipolandolo dietro le quinte.

Per le voci delle iene, l'intenzione originale era quella di riunire Cheech & Chong, ma mentre Cheech Marin accettò di interpretare Banzai perché si era stufato di essere incasellato in ruoli da tossicodipendente, Tommy Chong non era disponibile. Chong avrebbe poi rivelato che il suo rifiuto fu dovuto alla politica anti-marijuana di Disney e del loro codice di abbigliamento che lui riteneva troppo severo. Così il suo ruolo venne trasformato in una iena femmina, Shenzi, che venne doppiata da Whoopi Goldberg. Goldberg rivelò nell'expo D23 nel 2017 che fu assunta dopo aver imparato del film da Elton John, pregandolo per un ruolo nel film. A Ed Cummings, per recitare Ed, furono dati semplicemente dei biglietti con scritte emozioni come rabbia, tradimento, paura, fame e lussuria, da esprimere attraverso le risate, le cui registrazioni durarono solo cinque minuti.

Gli animatori visitarono la colonia di iene macchiate mantenute presso la Field Station per la ricerca comportamentale dell'Università della California, dove promisero il personale che le iene, più che vere antagoniste, sarebbero state rappresentate come personaggi comici.

Il re leone (2019)
Nel novembre del 2017, fu annunciato che le iene sarebbero state doppiate da Florence Kasumba, Keegan-Michael Key e Eric Andre.

Il regista Jon Favreau disse in un'intervista di Empire che le iene sarebbero state tra gli aspetti del remake che si discosterebbero di più dal film originale, siccome il loro aspetto stilizzato non sarebbe stato compatibile con il fotorealismo voluto per la nuova opera. Annunciò inoltre che le iene sarebbero vissute in una tana diversa dal cimitero degli elefanti originale. Il loro territorio fu infatti ispirato dai tufa del lago Mono e dai geyser di Dallol in Etiopia e del parco nazionale di Yellowstone.

A Keegan-Michael Key e Eric Andre fu chiesto da Favreau di basare le loro interpretazioni di Kamari e Azizi su certi duo comici come Stanlio e Ollio e Beavis and Butt-head. Kasumba, che in precedenza aveva interpretato Shenzi nella versione tedesca dell'adattamento di Broadway del primo film, dichiarò che era stupita da quanto la nuova Shenzi fosse "pericolosa e seria", in contrasto con la rapprentazione "idiota" e "divertente" delle iene originali.

Accoglienza e interpretazioni
Dato i numerosi paralleli nel primo film con Amleto di William Shakespeare, si ritiene che le iene siano liberamente ispirate a Laerte, antagonista secondario che viene manipolato da re Claudio, lui stesso ispirazione di Scar.

Dopo la distribuzione de Il re leone, i biologi delle iene protestarono contro la rappresentazione dell'animale, considerandola nociva per la sua immagine pubblica: un ricercatore citò in giudizio gli studi Disney per diffamazione, e un altro - che aveva organizzato la visita degli animatori presso l'Università della California, dove avrebbero osservato e disegnato iene in cattività - considerò il boicottaggio de Il re leone come un modo per aiutare a preservare le iene in natura. Lo scienziato comportamentale Stephen E. Glickman, anch'esso impiegato all'Università, paragonò la rappresentazione di Shenzi, Banzai e Ed alle descrizioni negative delle iene in Verdi colline d'Africa di Ernest Hemingway, in cui i tratti di ghiottoneria e stupidità comica comuni nelle rappresentazioni africane delle iene sono fuse con la codardia e la bruttezza, caratteristiche associate alle iene nell'immaginario popolare occidentale.

Oltre perpetuare i vecchi stereotipi della specie, certi critici incolparono il film d'aver modellato le iene a immagini razziste popolari negli Stati Uniti: Matt Roth della rivista Jump Cut e Max Farrow di Screenrant notano come le iene parlino in un gergo evocativo degli afroamericani e latinoamericani poveri, e che siano di un colore notevolmente più scuro dei leoni, che parlano in registri alti. I due autori notano inoltre come le iene si comportano come teppisti stereotipici, lottando fra di loro quando non sono unite da un nemico comune, e propense ad accettare le elemosine di Scar, vivendo segregati nel cimitero degli elefanti, che ambedue autori paragonano a un ghetto. Altre critiche includevano l'accusa di aver paragonato le iene a nazisti, mostrandole marciando a passo dell'oca in una scena chiaramente basata su Il trionfo della volontà.

Sebbene critico del messaggio finale del film, Brigit McCone del sito di recensioni di film femminista Bitch Flicks lodò la rappresentazione di Shenzi come personificazione delle "aspirazioni delle femministe umane", notando come il personaggio, sebbene dominante sopra Banzai e Ed, è fondamentalmente anti-autoritario, essendo irreverente verso la gerarchia imposta dai leoni, consultando sempre i suoi subordinati, e non approfittando della morte di Mufasa per autoproclamarsi regina. McCone cita inoltre il suo atteggiamento paziente verso il mentalmente disabile Ed, contrastandolo alla "inquietante conformità eugenica" dei leoni, che maltrattano il notevolmente più scuro e sfigurato Scar. Dichiarò inoltre come la segregazione delle iene nel cimitero degli elefanti sia evocativa del rifiuto da parte dei Paesi sviluppati di accogliere gli immigrati impoveriti, spiegando: "Il clan delle iene è il Terzo Mondo. Le iene sono le masse oppresse che bramano di respirare liberi". Nella serie spin-off, The Lion Guard, la consulente scientifica per la serie decise di introdurre un personaggio iena eroico per dimostrare che non tutte le iene sono cattive e che anch'esse svolgono un ruolo importante nell'ecosistema.

Sebbene il remake ricevette recensioni miste, l'interpretazione di Shenzi da parte di Florence Kasumba fu lodata: Refinery29 disse che il personaggio "esala una certa forza che è, dichiaratamente, piuttosto intossicante", mentre Blackfilm definì il personaggio un "pari intellettuale di Scar", che "affascina con ogni parola, incarna il potere, e attira l'attenzione del pubblico". Il mensile statunitense Fast Company fu misto nel suo giudizio, notando come le iene siano rese più minacciose e meno dipendenti dall'umorismo fisico per sollecitare le risate, affidandosi invece al dialogo tagliente tra Kamari e Azizi per l'effetto comico. Sebbene riconobbe la mancanza del presunto razzismo del film originale, dichiarò tuttavia che il remake fallì nel risolvere la questione del classismo, pur sempre rappresentando le iene come "emarginati sociali che non contribuiscono a niente e si nutrono della ricchezza prodotta dagli altri".

Q: Paint integer using drawString without assigning it to a string Problem: I need to have an integer that can be changed to be painted on screen.
What I Want To Do: Label an X Axis on a chart
Variables Used:

*

*lengthCountArray = An int[] array

*calcXWidth(lengthCountArray) = the amount to move along when painting the next integer

Current Code:
for(int a = 1; a < lengthCountArray.length; a++){
            x = 50 + calcXWidth(lengthCountArray);;
            y = 450;

            g.drawString(s, x, y);

        }

What I've Tried 1:
for(int a = 1; a < lengthCountArray.length; a++){
            String s = String.valueOf(a);
            x = 50 + calcXWidth(lengthCountArray);;
            y = 450;

            g.drawString("" + s, x, y);

        }

Comment: Issue is, you can't change a string after assigning it :(
What I've tried 2:
for(int a = 1; a < lengthCountArray.length; a++){
            x = 50 + calcXWidth(lengthCountArray);;
            y = 450;

            g.drawString("" + <int a>, x, y);

        }

If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to ask! Thank you in advance

A: In the comments I saw this post, which was the resolution to the problem.
"For me it's not clear. When you want to draw an int, then you can do g.drawSting(String.valueOf(theInt), x, y) - what's wrong with that?" –  Marco13 Mar 5 at 22:42
Thank you for the post Marco13! Really helped me!
