Pieter Bruegel the Elder's Apocalyptic Fortitude
Date: December 1997
Creator: Burris, Suzanne Lynn
Description: This thesis examines Pieter Bruegel the Elder's Fortitude, 1560, a print from the Seven Virtues series. Fortitude stands out as an anomaly within the cycle because it contains several allusions to the Book of Revelation. The linkage of Fortitude to the writings of St. John is important because it challenges previous iconographic and iconological analyses of the composition. Analysis of Fortitude's compositional elements is provided, along with an examination of the virtue tradition. Additionally, an exploration of sixteenth-century apocalypticism is included, as well as an examination of the artistic influences that may have inspired Bruegel. This thesis concludes that Fortitude's apocalyptic allusions do not seem unusual for an artist familiar with St. John's prophecies, influenced by Hieronymus Bosch, and living in an age of apocalypticism.

Making the Man: 'Suiting' Masculinity in Performance Art
Date: March 31, 2005
Creator: Cornwell, Alicia & Way, Jennifer
Description: This paper examines research on the significance of clothing, specifically, the "men's suit," in select examples of contemporary American performance art. Drawing on sociology and art history, it considers the suit as a form of communication, and it suggests that performance artists Chris Burden, Paul McCarthy, and Vanessa Beecroft have used the "men's suit" to explore and communicate something about masculinity as a socially and culturally constructed hegemony.

The Passage of the Comic Book to the Animated Film: The Case of the Smurfs
Date: August 2011
Creator: Baldwin, Frances Novier
Description: The purpose of this study is to explore the influence of history and culture on the passage of the comic book to the animated film. Although the comic book has both historical and cultural components, the latter often undergoes a cultural shift in the animation process. Using the Smurfs as a case study, this investigation first reviews existing literature pertaining to the comic book as an art form, the influence of history and culture on Smurf story plots, and the translation of the comic book into a moving picture. This study then utilizes authentic documents and interviews to analyze the perceptions of success and failure in the transformation of the Smurf comic book into animation: concluding that original meaning is often altered in the translation to meet the criteria of cultural relevance for the new audiences.

Description: This presentation accompanies a paper discussing research on the absence of Mary Magdalene in the Santa Maria Basilica in Trastevere, Rome.

Opening the Door to Meaning-Making in Secondary Art History Instruction
Date: May 2006
Creator: Stroud, Elizabeth J.
Description: Each day countless numbers of high school students remain standing at the threshold of the door to meaningful learning in art history because of traditional authoritative instructional methods and content. With the keys of feminist pedagogy, interactive teaching methods, and the new art histories, the teacher can now unlock that door and lead students to personally relevant learning on the other side. A case study using both qualitative and quantitative research methods was conducted in a secondary art history classroom to examine the teacher's pedagogical choices and the degree to which they enable meaningful and relevant student learning. The analysis of multiple sources of data, including classroom observations, revealed statistically significant correlations between the teacher's instructional methods and the content, as well as their impact on student meaning-making.

The Element can be summed up with one word: Movement. We are both a place and a people passionate about what God is doing in the lives of students. We strive to see students of every age discover who they are in Jesus Christ. This discovery will lead them to walk in the God-given power of the Holy Spirit and will allow them to radically change their culture. The Element's Vision is to see every junior and senior high student come into a saving relationship with Jesus Christ.

Pastor Cory continued our Anchor Down Series with a message called Shake It Off. He talked about how Jesus wants to you use you and bless you. The struggle is that we keep holding on to our past failures and what people say. Let's shake it off and keep moving in God's plan for our lives.
A graduate of the Evangel Leadership Academy, Nate Chapman, kicked off the first message in our new series Anchor Down. He talked about how we make excuses in our life to not anchor down in our walk with Jesus Christ. We can never move forward, if we keep making excuses.
This week we had the honor of hearing The Human Right message from Pastor Twyla Kuntz, our District Youth Director. The Human Right is for every one to know Jesus. We all know someone who does not have relationship with Jesus and it is our responsibility to share Him with them.
The Sex Panel is back! Every year, The Element Student Ministries dedicates an entire series to, you guessed it, SEX. Since sex, dating, and relationships are topics inundate us for 90% of our day, it's important we know what God has to say. We open up a mic and students have the opportunity to ask any question about sex, dating and relationships to our Sexperts.
In this message, we are talked about dating and relationships and the right and wrong way to go about it. The problem in today's dating is that we learn relationship after relationship how to divorce someone even before we have ever said our vows. We've learned how to "check them out - try them out and if we don't like them, just throw them out." GOD BOUGHT YOU AT A HIGH PRICE. DONT SELL YOURSELF SHORT.
Sex is a gift of God between a husband and wife. It doesn't say boyfriend, or finance or that person you think you've been in love with for the last 6 days, HUSBAND AND WIFE. Sex in marriage brings a deepening to the relationship, a level that should only be experienced with one person your whole life. Sex wasn't created so we can feel shame and guilt and pain. It was created for our pleasure to share with the perfect person God has for you to marry. In this message we talk about Sex and why its important to wait until after we get married and why personal purity is so important.
What does it mean to be authentic? Authenticity is about realness. It is not about expressing our opinions all the time, but rather how real we are. It's hard work being someone you're not supposed to be. What if the missing piece of someones salvation lies within you? But because you never took off the mask they'd never know Jesus. When you rid yourself of hypocrisy and feel the freedom of authenticity, God begins to use you in ways you didn't know were possible.
You can praise God because God has already done more than you think He has. Your Praise can be a problem for your problem. When you give God the praise first, the walls of your struggles will come down and mountains will fall. Don't give energy to uncertainty. What ever tomorrow will bring is that day's worries. Right now, you have to know how faithful God is and worship Him for that!
Family. We all have a desire to be apart of something. God wired us to be in community with one another. At The Element, we have a saying…. "Welcome Home." We are one big solid family. By looking at God we see perfect community between the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. God also calls us His children. You, above all else, are a Child of God - brothers and sisters in Christ.
Our original condition. We were created righteous and holy. But along the way we fell. Through the sin of man we have fallen short of the Glory of God. We need restoration. No matter how hard we try, there is nothing that we can do to return to our original state. Except by Jesus Christ. He makes us better than new! He is our restorer. The Element is a place where we can seek God and His full restoration.
If you're a girl in grades 6-8, we know you need some you time. Life can be stressful, school can be dramatic, and you really just needs some time with your closest friends. Thats why we have Ladies Night ... a night of food, games, reconnecting with friends, and meaningful conversation about what it looks like to live as a Godly woman. Ladies Night is happening on April 10, from 6:00 PM - midnight at the Element Student Center.
Baptism is the outward expression of an inward decision. As students begin a relationship with Jesus, we give them the opportunity to take the next step in their relationship with him through water baptism. The registration deadline for Element Baptism is April 8.
If you're a student in grades 9-12 and passionate about showing kids how fun a relationship with Jesus is, we want you to join us for our annual reach trip to inner-city Chicago. We're gearing up to impact the lives of kids with the love of Jesus through service projects and some crazy fun events. After a full day of hanging out with the kids of Chicago, we'll spend our evenings serving the poor and caring for those in need. If this excites you, download the application below and come along for the adventure of a lifetime.
Ignite is where students gather in a laid-back setting and go deep into the Word of God. They are able to ask questions about God, life, and everything in-between. At Ignite, students are not only discipled, but are shown how to connect with God in a real way.
Ignite Begins at 6:03 PM

WHITE WAVE is pleased to invite you to submit applications to our 15th Annual DUMBO Dance Festival (DDF), to be presented from October 8-11, 2015. We are proud to announce that this year's DDF will be presented at the Gelsey Kirkland Ballet's state-of-the art, 300-seat theater, which will be created in the summer of 2015 at 29 Jay Street in DUMBO (currently St. Ann's Warehouse).
With a long-time history of nurturing the work of emerging artists, WHITE WAVE is dedicated to showcase the freshest and the most individual voices in the dance field today. For the past 14 years, the DUMBO Dance Festival has been presented at the WHITE WAVE John Ryan Theater at 25 Jay Street. In the end of 2014 we had to give up our theater, which was not only a home to WHITE WAVE Young Soon Kim Dance Company but to the NYC dance community at large, due to skyrocketing rental costs. We are saddened by this loss, but are very excited to start a new chapter for the company and our renowned festivals. Co-hosting the 2015 DDF with a strong partner, the esteemed Gelsey Kirkland Ballet, allows us to expand the impact of our festival, and is only one of many exciting developments to come.
This year's DDF will showcase the work of about 85 emerging and established choreographers/dance companies from across the USA and abroad. Due to the location change and expansion of the audience capacity to 300, this year's festival format will slightly deviate from previous years'. Shows will last about 90min, with group performances of up to 9min, and solos of up to 6min in length. Like always, all performances will be free of charge to the public. The 2015 DUMBO Dance Festival is expected to attract audiences of more than 4,000 people. All performances will take place at the Gelsey Kirkland Center for the Arts.
Special Performance Opportunities:
- The Opening Night Gala on October 8th will not only be the kick-off of this year's DDF but will also be the official GRAND OPENING of the Gelsey Kirkland Center for the Arts. This Gala celebration will be hosted by a guest celebrity (tba) and will feature performances by 5 outstanding companies of the DDF roster in addition to WHITE WAVE Young Soon Kim Dance Company and the Gelsey Kirkland Ballet , followed by an elaborate reception and party.
- The family-friendly Sunday matinee performance lets children and their families discover the joy of dance.
- The spectacular Grand Finale Performance concludes the festival with 7 outstanding companies.
Our production expertise has established a solid reputation in the dance world. Our festivals are a stepping stone for rising dancemakers and do not only grow each company's fan base, but are often attended by booking agents. Frequently, our festival artists go on to present their work at Joyce Soho, WestFest Dance Festival, the Flea Theater's Dance Conversation, Center for Performance Research, Dixon Place and Jacob's Pillow, among others. Companies presented at the DUMBO Dance Festival included Joe Celej, La Petite Chouette Aerial Dance Company, David Norsworthy, Christie Zimmerman, Buglisi Dance Theatre, Tiffany Rea-Fisher, Amalgamate Dance Company, OUI DANSE/Brice Mousset, MADboots dance co., Enzo Celli/ Botega Dance Company, Catch Me Bird, Tzu-Ying Lee, Simone Sobers, Pascal Rekoert/Flexicurve, Helen Simoneau, Sidra Bell, Sally Bomer, Tiffany Mills Company, NØA Dance Nelly van Bommel.
The Wall Street Journal said,"Perhaps the most striking aspect of the DUMBO DANCE FESTIVAL was the diversity of the dancers and choreographers. Professional dance troupes came from around the globe, representing a range of physicalities and themes." (2012)
Angela Ritchie, 2014 DUMBO Dance Festival: "This festival not only provides the opportunity to share dance with the general public, but also to connect with artists from around the country and world; which seems to be an increasingly rare opportunity in today's society. My favorite experience was smiling and laughing with individuals I had never before met, and feeling the support they extended to our company…"
Join the list of inspiring artists who have graced the stage at past years' festivals!
We look forward to receiving your application(s) and encourage you to think creatively and courageously. The online application form and application guidelines are now available. If you have any questions, please call us at (718) 855-8822 or email email@example.com.
Please stay tuned for updates and the Call for Applications to our 10th Anniversary Wave Rising Series, which will be held in the spring of 2016.

Inside Opening in front of Sink
Here I am again with another small delima...
They have just ripped out the old double window in front of where my new sink and beautiful new faucet will go ... and now I have a opening that once the Granite is laid will be even to the bottom of the window frame.
Question ..How far should I close the window up behind the sink? I am not having the 4" piece of granite about the counter tops.
Hubby is really disappointed we had to close up any of the 5ft window...but needed to because of cabinets. But I promised we wouldn't close up the length any more than necessary.
The window or now opening...looks out into a glassed in front porch/ entry into the house.
I wasn't thinking about the faucet (which is large) showing up so much on the porch side ....but don't guess that should be a issue (hope not) I will also have a pendant that will hang down over the kitchen sink.
Does anyone have anything similar to what I'm describing? Or have any suggestions?
I am not really sure what you are asking.
If I understand correctly, I don't think that you need to close up the window space any. If the granite will be level with the currently open window framing, the window sill and bottom of the window will be higher than that.
There have been a few examples of folks here that have their windows down to the counter and it looked great.
If you are concerned about water splashing up though and just want to make the window higher above the counter, I guess it is just what you think looks nice. I doubt that there is any recommended distance that the window should be above the counter.
Hope that helps
The bottom of the opening (they have removed the window) is level with the top of the cabinets(or will be when they are delivered) So Question was.....do I leave the bottom of the opening level and make the sill out of Granite
Or bring it up say 2 to 4" and then either do a Granite sill or wood?
didn't know which would look best? Would hide the faucet some from the porch/entry if I did the later...

Amy and her husband stayed at Home Sweet Home for the second time and again they were great guests. Our home was treated with respect and left just as we had presented it. They enjoyed their stay and we would welcome them back anytime. I would recommend them to any airbnb host!
We were happy to host such wonderful guests as Amy and her husband at Home Sweet Home in Nolita! They were our first (website hidden) guests and we could not have had a better experience. We had great communicative correspondence before and during their stay. We were at ease knowing they were enjoying their visit to NYC. They respected and treated our apartment as if it were their own. I would highly recommend them to anyone considering to choose them as guests for their next (website hidden) experience!
Amy and her husband were excellent guests. I managed to meet them when they arrived, and since I had with both of them correspondence prior to their visit, they made from the very beginning a very good impression on me.
Everything worked out fine, so I would be happy to see them coming back to Hamburg (or my place)!

Friday June 18, 1999
What is so swiftly striking about Oliver Parker's exhilarating and elegant film of Oscar Wilde's "An Ideal Husband" is how very contemporary it is in its consideration of morality--or lack of same--in both personal and public life. Wilde was always about lots more than witty repartee, and as sparkling as his play is as drawing-room comedy, it reveals his concern with the timeless values of unselfish love and forgiveness. Parker has shaped the play to make it more film-friendly and relevant, but he has done so with such subtlety you would have to be a Wilde authority even to notice.
Britain a century ago was the world's superpower that America is now, and its hero, Sir Robert Chiltern (Jeremy Northam), a member of Parliament heralded as "the last decent man in London." He is poised on the threshold of a brilliant career, with the prime minister's office the ultimate goal, surely. He has a vision of a responsible empire embodied in his slogan, "Commerce with a conscience," which sounds lots like a certain presidential candidate's advocacy of "compassionate conservatism." Yet there is a dark secret in his life, one that most people would find far more damaging than l'affaire Lewinsky, one that makes him vulnerable to the bewitching blackmailer, Mrs. Cheveley (Julianne Moore).
Mrs. Cheveley, whose unabashed glamour and insinuating manner set her apart from more proper women, has descended upon the dashing Sir Robert at his grand London residence (looking only slightly less posh than Buckingham Palace) during a glittery soiree presided over by Sir Robert's gracious and devoted wife, Gertrude (Cate Blanchett), a lovely young woman of noble character and intelligence. Mrs. Cheveley is nothing if not direct with Sir Robert: He is to stand up in Parliament and endorse a fraudulent scheme for a canal in Argentina in which she has heavily invested or she will make public a letter that will reveal just how he, born poor but clearly well-connected, made his fortune. (Moore is as memorable an adventuress as Paulette Goddard was in Alexander Korda's 1948 film version of the Wilde play.)
When a desperate Sir Robert turns for help to his friend Lord Goring (Rupert Everett), "An Ideal Husband" at once broadens and deepens its scope, heightens its humor and shifts its focus to Goring, who becomes the film's dominant presence, especially as played with such scene-stealing wit and style by Everett.
There is a great deal of Wilde in both men, for like Sir Robert, Wilde was a loving, though in his case flagrantly errant, husband, and like Lord Goring in that his mastery of the epigram belied a fundamental seriousness. The kind of epic-scale scandal that threatens to engulf Sir Robert as the millennium approaches of course in fact did destroy Wilde--while in fact "An Ideal Husband" was playing in London.
Mischievous, indolent and given to outrageous yet knowing pronouncements almost every time he opens his mouth, Lord Goring is just the man of the world to deal with the opportunistic Mrs. Cheveley, to whom he was once briefly engaged. She insists on taking a "we're birds of a feather" approach to a man she would still like to land, thus seriously underestimating Lord Goring's actually quite formidable strength of character, solid values and unflinching courage.
Yet as Lord Goring commences to act, he also inadvertently sets himself on a course of responsible conduct that will endanger his cherished bachelor status, making it harder to resist his own candidacy as an ideal husband--to Sir Robert's strong-willed yet enchanting sister Mabel (Minnie Driver) who chafes at the propriety of not making perfectly clear her love for him. What's more, Lord Goring's father, Lord Caversham (John Wood), is eager to see his son tie the knot. An amusing confusion on the part of Lord Goring's redoubtable butler (Peter Vaughan) allows fate to interact with character in the unraveling of an increasingly complicated plot.
Parker reveals the same deftness here in bringing Wilde to the screen as he did in Shakespeare's "Othello," with Laurence Fishburne a striking Moor of Venice. As before, purists may object to Parker's streamlining a stage classic in adapting it to film. The rest of us, meanwhile, can be delighted that his "Ideal Husband," like "Othello," is a real movie rather than a filmed play. We can also take pleasure in how he's turned his stars into a stunning ensemble who are at once able to bring out the humor as well as the seriousness in Wilde.
You have the feeling that the actors are enjoying themselves--a feeling that is felicitously contagious. It is a special joy to see Blanchett shine, freed once again from the self-important ponderousness of "Elizabeth," as admirable as she was in last year's Oscar-nominated hit. The film also consolidates the wide appeal and recognition Everett established with "My Best Friend's Wedding," and in the wake of "The Winslow Boy" confirms the formidable talent and charisma of Northam.
Not surprisingly, "An Ideal Husband" is also the kind of glorious period piece the British do so well, with sumptuous settings and costumes that in this instance, however, never overwhelm story and character. Say what you will about the constrictions of corsets, trains and elaborate hairstyles in this era of the liberated, natural-looking woman, Caroline Harris' 1890s costumes remind us how deeply romantic and highly flattering they could be; you could say the same for the men's handsome, well-cut formal attire. Vital and buoyant, "An Ideal Husband" continues in an impressive manner the resurgence of interest in Wilde as the centennial of his death approaches.

Stewie's time machine transports him and Brian to 17th-century Jamestown, where they proceed to alter the course of mankind, and a rash decision by Stewie may leave them unable to get back to the future.
Peter and Quagmire discover they have a talent for singing and blend their voices into a Simon and Garfunkel-like music duo, but soon there's disharmony in the air when fame goes to Peter's head.

Raiders rookie Carr sustains concussion
Oakland, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - Oakland Raiders rookie quarterback Derek Carr suffered a concussion during Friday's preseason game against the Detroit Lions, head coach Dennis Allen announced after the contest.
Carr exited Oakland's 27-26 win over the Lions with under six minutes left after taking a hard shot from Detroit's Larry Webster on a pass attempt.
The 2014 second-round pick played well prior to the injury, engineering three scoring drives and completing 9-of-16 passes for 109 yards and a touchdown.
Carr, currently second on the Raiders' depth chart behind veteran Matt Schaub, will have to pass the league's concussion protocol in order to play in Oakland's third preseason contest, which will be next Friday at Green Bay.

I purchased the Prismacolor Deluxe Collection of colored pencils for my son. The most surprising thing about these pencils were how beautiful the pencils were boxed. My son says that they are the best pencils he has ever worked with. The best thing for me was I placed my order and it was at my house in three days.

I'm recoding the game I asked a question, "How can I iterate over a quadruple linked 2-dimensional grid of data as if it were a 2-dimensional array?", for in Haskell.
In order to create the grid of data in the first place I used a very imperative style algorithm, shown below. The key feature it relies upon is that I can take an index into an array and create a reference out of it. An example, "&array[x][y]".
I need to be able to take an index into a mutable array and make a state reference out of it in Haskell. The type signature might therefore be
convertToSTRef :: i -> STArray s i a -> ST s (STRef s a)
I have looked over the documentation, tried both hoogle and hayoo, and not found a way to accomplish this.
P.S. Alternatively, if someone had a different algorithm that I could use, that would be great.
P.S.S. The simple imperative algorithm.
const size_t rows = 20;
const size_t columns = 59;
block tiles[columns][rows];
block * const start = &tiles[columns/2][rows/2];
for (size_t x = 0; x < columns; ++x)
for (size_t y = 0; y < rows; ++y)
tiles[x][y].floor = '^';
tiles[x][y].inhabitant = WALL;
tiles[x][y].side_block[EAST] = (x + 1 < columns) ? &tiles[x + 1][y] : NULL;
tiles[x][y].side_block[SOUTH] = (y + 1 < rows) ? &tiles[x][y + 1] : NULL;
tiles[x][y].side_block[WEST] = (x > 0) ? &tiles[x - 1][y] : NULL;
tiles[x][y].side_block[NORTH] = (y > 0) ? &tiles[x][y - 1] : NULL;

SPYGATE REDUX? ESPNFC.com reported Liga MX club Toluca on Tuesday was fined $5,000 by CONCACAF for taping an MLS Earthquakes practice "before their second leg of the CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinals." The Earthquakes filed a complaint "alleging that Toluca filmed San Jose's training on March 18 at Estadio Nemesio Díez, the day before the match" (ESPNFC.com, 4/1).
STAY AWHILE: In Vancouver, Mike Beamish noted CFL B.C. Lions Owner David Braley is "in no hurry to show himself out the door." Braley said, "This is my 18th season (with the Lions). How long will I continue to own the team? It could be one, it could be eight, it could be 10 (years). I have no idea. As long as I'm in good health I see no pressure to sell. If somebody's got $100 million, then I might think about selling. Right now, the team is not for sale" (VANCOUVER SUN, 4/1).
LONG STOCKINGS: In Boston, Peter Abraham lists the "20 most important figures" in the Red Sox organization. His list includes GM Ben Cherington at No. 1, Owner John Henry and Chair Tom Werner at No. 3, President & CEO Larry Lucchino at No. 13, COO and FSG President Sam Kennedy at No. 17 and Dir of Sports Medicine Dan Dyrek at No. 20.

Nice beds and cheets,friendly staff, right price, good breakfast - Lisa
inthe centrum - Anonymous
En fantastisk upplevelse att vistas i hotellmiljön. Jag fascineras över dessa tidlösa men ändå andliga möten mellan människor som har och kommer att vistas på denna plats. Jag upplevde ro, vila, behaglighet nästan som att gå in i en kyrka för att kunna ta ett steg ut ur det världsliga slamret för att finna ett personligt möte mellan det inre och yttre universa. - Annelie
The location is off the hook. Just behind Sergerls Torg. The organic
breakfest was good and big, there was also something to eat for people
who can't eat normal bread/milk (lactose-free, glutein free) and
that was excellent. The staff in the info desk helped us a lot with
different questions and needs, especially woman named Katja was very
good with customers, thanks again. The rooms were okay, but the
decoration was a bit boring and old. The bath was great! - Anonymous
price and location. in fact, it is a dormitory - a place where you will only sleep, for an acceptable value of money. it is located in a very good place near the city center. the way from the hotel to the central station took only 20 minutes. metro is nearby. Gamla Stan is in few minutes walking across the bridge. - Anonymous
The room was tiny, but this is how it works in Stockholm. It wasn't
your typical dungy type of boat, where it's cold and you can smell
the build up of growth on the walls etc. The staff was great, very, very
friendly and helpful. By far the most friendly staff on any of the boats
in Stockholm, and I have stayed on all of them. Price was decent, about
as best as you can get in the city center for your own room. I have no
real complaints about this hotel and will be staying there again. - Anonymous
Bra service, frukost och läge - Britt-marie
Location. Most of tourist attractions were on walking distance or on the bus lines (several busses and Metro station are less than 200m away). Good breakfast, good coffee, comfortable bed with nice sheets, lots of tourist info and suggestions. - Anonymous
I got all help i wanted at ones, exelent service.
The jaccuzzi and sauna was perfect. - Anonymous
Med tanke på läget centralt i Stockholm mycket humana priser. Dessutom en mycket bra frukost. - Torsten
Allt var fantastiskt bra. Man känner sig välkommen. Rival är lyxigt och snyggt utan att vara stelt och pretentiöst. Mest imponerande är att här har man verkligen tänkt på alla detaljer. Som cd-skivorna i rummet, som du även kan lyssna på i badrummet, där det finns golvvärme och en härlig dusch där du kan släppa in dagsljus. Sängar och sängkläder var supersköna. - Anonymous
Well I think you have to know what to expect with the Loginn Hotel. The rooms are (very) small cabins but they have individual (but *very* noisy) toilets. The location is good, being a short walk from the old town, but the nearest metro station is a fair walk away. The breakfast is a basic Swedish style breakfast but it was fine for me! The real attraction with this hotel is the maritime charm of living on an old boat. It is also fairly well priced for accommodation in central Stockholm.
So if - Anonymous
Excellent hotel, friendly staff, very good Italian restaurant, small but
very modern design spa, excellent bar and lounge, very trendy and ideal
location (close to the luxury shoppings and trendy restaurants). We
think this must be the best hotel to stay in Stockholm... - Anonymous
