   [PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Colloton and Bright, Circuit
   Judges]
   Civil case - Employment Discrimination. Evidence was sufficient to
   support the jury's finding that plaintiff was actually disabled, as
   well as its decision to reject defendant's proffered reason for not
   hiring plaintiff and to find that defendant discriminated against him
   based on his disability; reasonable jury could have found that
   defendant's offered explanation for not hiring plaintiff was a pretext
   for age discrimination; evidence was sufficient to support an award
   of punitive damages under the Americans with Disability Act; award
   of emotional distress damages affirmed; award of liquidated damages
   affirmed; award of front pay affirmed.
