...They are vessels that you walk into," says Serra. Well, yes, if vessel means ship rather than pot. They hark back to, and in a sense make concrete, a vivid childhood memory that is quoted in the show's catalog. Serra's father worked in a California shipyard, and the son got to see large new craft being launched. "It was a moment of tremendous anxiety," Serra wrote in 1988, "as the oiler rattled, swayed, tipped and bounced into the sea, half submerged, to then raise and lift itself and find its balance. The ship went through a transformation from...
...Baltimore, an interdenominational Christian prayer center in Missouri and several other congregations--all of which will entrust it further to some Higher Force. Only when the requests have gone out will Dr. Mitchell Krucoff insert a catheter, and eventually several buttressing stents (small mesh devices to prop open the vessel), into Stephens' coronary artery...

The stakes are high: Disney will launch a second vessel, the Wonder, next June, and Eisner grandly hopes for a 10- or 12-ship fleet, sailing from Florida, California and the Mediterranean, within the next decade. He's betting that the cruise industry, which fills its cabins with discounted fares, can accommodate a competitor that charges 20% higher than the norm (starting at $860 for a three-day cruise, including airfare, compared with $648 on the Royal Caribbean line's Nordic Empress). The ship is heavily...
