Take a hard look at the face of Maria Sharapova in this above Serena video, and you will not want any female child, to have their Gold Medal ripped away from them, and to go through the disappointment that Sharapova went through â when a man, stole her Gold Medal, in womenâs tennis.
July 12, 2016; Lexington Herald-Leader. Noah may have escaped the Biblical great flood on his larger-than-life ark, but the 500-foot, $100 million replica of Noahâs Ark in Williamstown, Kentucky may not escape the wrath of âBill Nye the Science Guyâ or those in the nonprofit sector who balk at the idea of the creationist theme park.
One thing is not in dispute -- this is one big ark. The replica of the world's most famous lifeboat, which sits on 800 acres in Northern Kentucky's scenic river region some 30 miles south of Cincinnati, measures 510 feet in length, or 300 cubits, as specified in the Bible. That makes it nearly as long as three Space Shuttles laid end to end. Ark Encounter covers some 120,000 square feet, or more than twice as large as the White House. Described by its private-sector builders at the biggest timber-frame structure in the U.S., the ark comes stocked with hundreds of sculpted creatures.
