Owners of a Noah's Ark replica file a lawsuit over rain damage!
They don't build them like they used to. Owners of a replica of Noah's Ark are suing their insurers, saying the companies failed to cover adequately damage caused by heavy rain.
The Ark Encounter in Williamstown, Kentucky, features a 510-foot wooden ship modeled after the biblical ark.
In a suit filed this week in US District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky, the park alleges its insurers acted in bad faith after investigating damage to the property.

i have an ex where there was a substantial and messy break up years and years ago, but every time i've found something out about her since ... it's like she's taken aspects of me and my life to her own identity / new relationship (which she had upon our break-up). examples:
- started shooting film-based photography and going to the darkroom i used to frequent and teach at in SF when i lived there about 2 weeks after we broke up. never took a picture in her life before.
- began doing collage-art using old magazines purchased at the magazine shop i used to live next door to in SF where i would get all my supplies (about 2 months after the break up)
- traveled on her honeymoon to 3 cities, two of which were ones we had traveled together to the previous year
- in subsequent years has gone to the same states / countries as i have, just usually 8-12 months after i do... even like same cities, posting similar photos to instagram. just with this other guy.like maybe it's all coincidence but it feels like she watches my life through the internet and cherry picks the things i do (a majority of which are to gain independence from the rather toxic nature of how things ended between her and i) and then goes and does them with this guy who is about 6 years younger. she makes good money doing bad design in SF so can afford to do it as a vacation while i actually work for it... and i dunno.
they say imitation is the highest form of flattery but this feels like something else.
- sorry i have no one to bitch to in my life about "girls" and the like, i understand this is whiny and superficial, but it hits a nerve i've been trying to mendcolin_s
- Stop watching her social media, who give a flying fuck what that bitch does.eryx
- ^ this. stop going thereGnash
- Yep. If you stop following, she might stop doing it. But then how would you know. Classic Schrodinger's ex-girlfriend.Fax_Benson
- Return the favour - start copying her clothes and posing styles in photos you post.Nairn
- be pleased you've found a way thought life that has inspired someone else. We all end up as worm food and the sun will swallow the earth, don't worry about it.shapesalad
- Yup, sounds like a shy narcissist and she IS communicating to you through her copying. She's saying, "thanks, you're a chump and I'm gonna flaunt it."robotron3k
- The finest revenge, erase/block her completely, if you bump into her act asif she's a stranger. Forgetting her will drive her nuts. Then change your photo stylerobotron3k
- @all she is blocked for the most part. like it isn't a follow/follow situation, neither of us has spoken and i haven't followed her since. it's only occasionalcolin_s
- that someone has said 'hey have you seen what _ is up to' etc. - we're on strictly no contact in any way terms.colin_s
- well what makes you "you" is not that you use negative or magazine but what you do with it. I think it's completely normal to learn from your partner.pango
- this girl who i was seeing took one of my idea. ran with it and got an award for it. i wasn't even mentioned... bitch....pango
- lol kidding.
she took the initiative and i didn't.pango - @pango it's more like she rejected me for my various negative qualities, took the good shit and adopted into her own life. feels like theft in a waycolin_s

Question for the copyright / legal people out there.
I have an idea for a website. All it does is spider a particular NEWS website and display the number of times a specific word appears in an article. You'll be able to select the specific word to filter in a dropdown list.
So let's say you select "fake news" from the dropdown, it will show the headline for the article...perhaps a thumbnail...and a link to view the page.
Now could this be considered a breach of copyright? Could I get ordered to take this down if the NEWS site felt aggrieved?
- It sounds like Fair Use (review/critique) to me, but that wouldn't stop larger outlets from slapping you down with a C&D anyway.i_monk
- it will link back to the original site?sted
- yepBusterBoy
- No full articles or anything like that. Just 100% a headline, thumbnail and link to their site.BusterBoy
- Sounds like a consolidated version of Huffington Post or Drudgerobotron3k
- Isn't this what Google does? So, you'll be fine everywhere except Europe in future, where you may have to pay some tax, based on turnover (ie. you won't).Nairn

Greyscale / RGB
even if you convert to greyscale in PS when you output the pdf with that ICC profile it will be converted to a CMYK anyway. So you make as well leave it RGB if you're happy with the way it looks.
A CMYK greyscale will give you richer tones when printed so it's better if you have that option. The only thing you need to mindful of is a colour-cast when it's being printed. But that's the printer's job to watch
- make = mayGnash
- Aye. Thanks matetank02
- thismonospaced
- i wouln't leave CMYK conversion to indesign, used to convert in ps, proper color profile, and save a hq tiff what will be placed in indesign.sted
- and how about using cmyk->duotone conversion and export as eps K only? :) because I can tell the difference between a CMKY printed photo and a proper grayscalested
- It's always best to follow the printers' advice. if an issue developes he'll just blame your conversionGnash
- ouh ouh ouh ouh ouhmekk
- Sted, I always do color conversion in indesign. I'm also a photographer, and work for alot of magazine, they always ask the rgb to a batch conversion in ->tank02
- Indesign so you have good seperations preview in combo with the required ICC profile.tank02
- ^^ yupGnash
- indesign was known for the shitty colorspace conversion for many years, it's just an other way, you can still do separated cmky docs for checking, that doesn'tsted
- depends on the source :)sted
- it's actually acrobat that doing the conversion. But you're right, I do my own in PS. the only exception is when the printer asks for a specific workflowGnash
