At “The New Citizens Press”, we love theatre and the arts.  This is the year for those who have not experienced being creative to do so.  All of the “creatives” in Michigan, I advise you to do something different.  Go to a play or an outdoor event.  Do something that you have not done before.  As our motto states “ changing the mindset in the ‘nu’ millennium”.

Dear Tamara:

I let my cousin move in with me about six months ago. She was only supposed to stay with me for a couple of weeks until she got her apartment situation straight. She is driving me crazy! She doesn’t cook or clean up after herself.

Ask Tamara: Baby Mama Drama!

Rina Risper06 mins

Dear Tamara:
 
My new boyfriend is perfect. We have been dating for about four months now and we get along great. The only problem is his son’s mother. I hate to put it this way, but she is ghetto! She is constantly interfering in our relationship. She calls him all hours of the night just to get under my skin and try to cause trouble between us. Should I get out of the relationship now before it gets to deep and allow her to win, or should I hang in there and straighten her out?

“THE TOURIST”: The star power and the scenery are the main attractions of this romantic adventure with definite echoes of “North by Northwest.” Johnny Depp plays a bookish American who’s visiting Europe when his path crosses that of an attractive mystery woman (Angelina Jolie). She quickly draws him into a dangerous case of mistaken identity that plays out in such cities as Paris and Venice. The supporting cast includes Paul Bettany, Timothy Dalton and Rufus Sewell. DVD extras: two “making-of” documentaries; audio commentary by director Florian Henckel Von Donnersmarck; outtakes; alternate title sequences. *** (PG-13: AS, P) (Also on Blu-ray)
