  • Battlestar Keeps On Keeping On, According To Six
    While the audience waits impatiently for the final half-season of Battlestar Galactica, the cast and crew have already moved on... kind of.

Weeds Season 4 Premieres Monday, June 16 on Showtime PDF Print E-mail
Written by Kenneth Hoyumpa   
Thursday, 12 June 2008

One of my two Showtime favorites will be back on the air Monday, June 16, 2008 at 10pm EST. Weeds, now in its 4th season, shifts into a new direction with a broader perspective into the drug underworld. Season 4 will diverge away from small-time suburban pot cultivation and dealing to the larger and more dangerous world of international drug trafficking. From the burning "little boxes" of suburban Agrestic at season 3's end to the Mexican-California border, Nancy Botwin (played by Mary-Louise Parker) relocates her family and her black market operations with guidance from Mexican drug-lord Guillermo (played by Half-Baked star Guillermo Diaz). Weeds Season 4 is slated for 13 episodes.

According Entertainment Weekly's Summer TV: Preview 23 Shows Arriving in June, Weeds Season 4 will center around the Mexican-US border. With border security being a hot topic in the current election cycle, Weeds will contrast the seriousness surrounding border issues, like drug smuggling, illegal immigration, and corruption, while simultamously making you laugh and shake your head in disbelief.

Kava, the South Pacific, and Lost PDF Print E-mail

Lost, ABC TV Series about the crash survivors of Oceanic 815, an Island, and the on-going struggle to control itBack in 2006, I spent a month island hopping in the tiny island nation of Vanuatu. In search of the south Pacific's best kava and to strengthen bonds with Nakava's distant kava suppliers, I enjoyed one of the most memorable and exciting adventures of my life. The lush jungles, warm and inviting sun, cool ocean breezes, and kind, island hospitality left a deep imprint upon me. Even before I set foot on those islands, somehow I felt a kinship.

During my second week in Vanuatu, I traveled with kava guru and owner of Nakava, Jeffrey Bowman, to the outer island of Pentecost. Pentecost Island is the farthest I could have ever imagined myself to be away from modern day western civilization. The airport runway was nothing but a grass landing strip between rocky black sand beaches and sharp peaks that dramatically rose from the depths of the ocean.
