With the basket, Rocky, and Chickaletta in need of rescuing, the PAW Patrol deploy to go help. Alex is upset over having goofed up like he did, but Ryder assures him that when you find an egg in the wild, it is best to leave it alone. Ryder soon realizes that the large egg Alex found must be the Mother Eagle's egg, and she was only taking back what was stolen from her. However, the mother eagle soon appears overhead and, without warning, snatches the entire basket full of eggs and candy, and flies back to her nest, taking Rocky and Chickaletta with her as they were in the basket at the time. With the pups' help (during which they sing a short song about Easter), the eggs are done in time, and Alex even adds a larger egg he found and painted himself to be used in the hunt. All the pups are needed for this assignment, especially to decorate the eggs, and they soon deploy to lend a hand. Ryder agrees and calls the PAW Patrol to hand out their orders. ![]() ![]() Unfortunately, Chickaletta knocks her jellybean off the table, and in her pursuit of it, accidentally causes Mayor Goodway to trip over her and sprain her arm.Īt the Lookout, Ryder soon gets a call from Mayor Goodway and Alex asking for help since with Mayor Goodway injured, they can't finish painting the eggs in time for the Egg Hunt. However, with just her and Alex doing it, the Mayor is getting a little exhausted from all the work. Marshall brings buckets full of eggs, but they fall out and crack, leaving raw whites and yolks, because he hadn't known they needed to be hard-boiled first, making the shells more durable.Īt the City Hall, Mayor Goodway, dressed in a pink-striped outfit from her usual attire with a pair of bunny ears on her head, is busy painting eggs for the egg hunt with Alex while Chickaletta is busy pecking away at a jellybean. They even mistake a bunny's tail for an egg and have a good laugh about it. ![]() It's Easter time in Adventure Bay, and the pups are busy practicing and training for the upcoming Easter Egg Hunt at the City Hall, including Skye locating eggs with her goggles. The hunt for a very special egg leads Ryder and the PAW Patrol on an exciting adventure. It's Adventure Bay's annual Easter Egg Hunt and the pups are helping Mayor Goodway with the egg decorating.

Norwegian has the loosest approach to the traditional Formal Night of all the major cruise lines. Fortunately, on our cruise we never waited more than 10 minutes to be seated. There are no set dining times on Breakaway, and at prime time dinner in the main dining rooms can require a wait. We didn’t care for the video monitors spread throughout the public areas of ship, all set to display NCL marketing materials to promote Breakaway’s bars and surcharge dining-this seemed really excessive.Ī few words about NCL’s Freestyle cruising concept. There’s no lounge for enjoying the forward panorama above the bridge, as is common on most cruise ships, and lounge chairs along the promenade deck were at a minimum. ![]() Things we didn’t like included the prevalence of smoking, particularly in the casino (NCL is one of only two mainstream cruise lines that still allows smoking on guest balconies). (Tip for parents: Pack your kids’ bathing suits in the carry-on so they can enjoy the waterpark before sailaway.) The evening entertainment featured a couple terrific shows including Broadway’s “Rock of Ages,” and we really enjoyed Fat Cats Jazz & Blues Club. On the top deck there’s a waterpark with five slides, a ropes course that tested our vertigo, and a rock climbing wall. ![]() In keeping with the more-is-better theme, the roster of activities is impressive. The evening entertainment included a couple terrific shows, and we really enjoyed Fat Cats Jazz & Blues Club. We wouldn’t call Breakaway a cruise for foodies, but for those willing to pony up there were satisfying meals to be had. Ocean Blue, a restaurant with a menu designed by Iron Chef Geoffrey Zakarian, provided an excellent meal that carried a $49 dining fee. Food quality ranged considerably, with the buffet venue presenting decent food in a clamorous setting and the main dining room offering serviceable if unexceptional food. Most of these restaurants and snack stands involve surcharges. The slender balcony, however, was the smallest we’ve ever encountered.īreakaway has more dining venues than any other ship in the NCL fleet-indeed, more than almost any ship at sea. Special kudos are due to NCL for the excellent shower arrangement-again, not big, but a real improvement over what we’ve dealt with on most mainstream ships. Though our quarters weren’t oversized, they were certainly adequate for a couple. ![]() Our cabin, a Balcony unit, was very comfortable, handsomely attired in a blue and brown color scheme. While the lobby atrium is an underwhelming two-deck affair dominated by a massive video screen, other parts of the ship impressed us, such as the glitzy casino, the main dining room with its grand supper club ambiance, and Spice H2O, a outdoor dance floor and sun deck. Although Breakaway’s hull artwork by Peter Max showcases a gaudy pop interpretation of Manhattan icons, the ship’s interior is less pedestrian, almost sophisticated. About Our CruiseĬheck-in and embarkation went smoothly, with no unusual delays. As crisp winds ruffled our jackets and the Manhattan skyline sailed by, we waved goodbye to the Statue of Liberty and eagerly anticipated sunnier shores. We should mention that Norwegian Gateway, homeported in Miami year-round, is essentially an identical twin to Breakaway, save for a design that apes Florida.īreakaway offers 7-night cruises to Bermuda in summer months, and to the Bahamas in winter. But Breakaway’s New York clichés, drawn in the broadest strokes possible, are inoffensive-after a couple days they’re almost invisible. It’s kind of like if the mouse house were to build a theme park called Floridaland and plant it next to the Magic Kingdom (oh wait, they already tried that in California). Curiously, the ship also carries a Big Apple theme, as though Tri-State residents need to be reminded of what they left behind while on vacation. Breakaway homeports in New York City, a boon for Manhattan-area cruisers who can take the subway to within a few blocks of the pier for embarkation. ![]() In some dialogs, this will only find elements starting with the search term (e.g. Space, Enter activate current button or listĬtrl + PgUp, Ctrl + PgDn in a multi-tab dialog, switch tabsĬtrl + F open a search field in a dialog with a list This accepts the new value you typed in a text field and returns focus to canvas.

Recently, it took me days to complete a single quest because I kept getting distracted by a cool thing that popped up, whether it was a bandit hideout, a lake infested with monsters, or a series of notes that hinted at a mysterious quest. It was the essence of Eurojank: a punishingly difficult RPG made harder by some atrocious lag, glitches galore, rubbish AI, basically zero balance, dodgy performance, consistent crashes at launch, a ton of systems that weren’t well developed (or well thought out), poor explanations for basic stats and mechanics, and combat design that basically encouraged save scumming en masse.Īnd yet when Patricia played ELEX, she still loved it. ![]()

Overall MPG is 23 on recommended unleaded, mostly rural roads It's a big vehicle, but not unwieldy, as it fits into normal parking places.

Since we never have a need for a 3rd passenger row, I … limited my search to the Passport Santa Fe Outback and Edge. Our Mazda CX-5 is terrific, but it doesn't easily accommodate multiple sets of golf clubs plus luggage.

In response, the men attack Sammo, who soundly defeats them with incredible martial arts skills. Sammo asks the lead mechanic about the whereabouts of a gangster named Lee Hei. ![]() The man's name is Sammo Law, and he is a captain in the Shanghai police. In the city of Shanghai, China, a rather portly man in plain clothing enters a garage where mechanics are working on cars. "Chinese detective Sammo Law arrives in Los Angeles to find a missing colleague, and teams up with two local cops in pursuit of an international mobster." on CBS, beginning this week."Shanghai Express" is the first episode of the short-lived show Martial Law. “Martial Law” will air Saturdays at 9 p.m. Indeed, it was Hung who suggested that when his partners first meet him and ask what he wants to drink-coffee, tea?-he replies emphatically: “Diet Coke.” While jokes are made in “Martial Law” of Law’s girth, the likelihood is that you won’t laugh at him but rather root for him. I sit in the cinema, and the audience, they clap their hands-oh, my heart is very happy.” “This is a team job,” Hung says of his colleagues on “Martial Law.” “Actually the one thing I really hope is that the audience-they like it. ![]() So Cuse had to do “a crash 36-hour rewrite to tailor it to Sammo,” who “didn’t exactly look like Tom Selleck.” Still, there was “something very appealing in the idea of someone who looked more like the common man possessed all these incredible skills.” Tong revealed that Chan was first choice, but he declined because he felt he couldn’t work as quickly on executing martial-arts moves as TV production demands. But Hung was not the lead they had in mind. Within 24 hours, executive producer Carlton Cuse, creator of “Nash Bridges,” said he was asked to write a pilot script. “He liked the tone,” said Tong, one of the series’ three executive producers. In March, with other networks making pilots on martial arts themes-none got picked up-CBS Television President Les Moonves met with director Stanley Tong, who made three hit movies with Chan. The series arose about as fast as a good karate chop. Nice Guy,” done in English, directing Jackie Chan.īi-continental, with homes in Hong Kong, New Jersey and Los Angeles, Hung had intended to focus on directing-until “Martial Law” beckoned. “Close Encounters of the Spooky Kind” (1981), which Hung directed and starred in, established his reputation as a master of horror kung-fu comedy. He fought opposite Bruce Lee at the start of “Enter the Dragon” (1973). In the 30 years since, Hung made his own mark with 140 movies, going “one step, one step, one step” from stuntman to stunt choreographer, actor, leading man, director. “Everything open, my nose and my mouth.” He points to his eye, then his neck, and shakes his head. His face bears a deep scar, running from the side of his nose to the top of his lip, the result of being slashed with a cracked soda bottle in a street fight with what he said were “gangsters” when he was 16. Whatever I do-action, acting-I do my best.” I don’t care about, ‘Am I fat? Am I ugly?’. I actually just care about what I’m doing-my voice and my character. The emotions on his face tell all.Īs for being an unlikely leading man, Hung smiles: “I never think about my face. In an early scene in the first episode, he’s sitting on his suitcase at LAX, waiting to be picked up, then realizes no one is showing up. With a wide array of jumps, kicks, somersaults and dives through car windows, plus the ability and acuity to use handy objects such as a chalk-filled eraser, a garbage can or a hospital gurney to overcome opponents, Hung certainly grabs attention. To his new partners (played by Tammy Lauren and Louis Mandylor), Law is described as “the top cop in a country of 1.2 billion people senior training officer for all of China in hand-to-hand combat and martial arts.” to catch the leader of an international car-theft ring and find Law’s young protege, Chen Pei Pei (Kelly Hu), who had gone undercover. On “Martial Law,” billed as a “comedy action-drama,” Law (a common Chinese surname), who is from from Shanghai, joins forces with the Los Angeles Police Dept. And yet there is something about Hung, as he makes this transition from Asian superstar to American TV actor that is, as a police officer says of his character Sammo Law, “pretty damn impressive.” Hung has charisma. |
