Not everything is what it seems. Watch out for strange requests; there's no shame in turning them down. A little investment makes a big difference at home. Renew something that's no longer functional.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) Today is a 7
Good news and fresh ideas come in from far away. Listen carefully, and keep your objective in mind. It's not a good time for travel yet; wait four days for Mercury to go direct.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Take a walk on the wild side (or at least outdoors), it will do you good. Count your winings. Don't let loved ones dip into your piggy bank. It will serve them well to earn their own
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Throw yourself into a potentially explosive moment. Controversy could arise, or a brilliant scheme. If it's too wild, it won't work. Stand up for what's right. Improve your living conditions by cleaning house. Study

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

excess HOLLYWOOD review
Documentary about wrongful conviction proves compelling
In May 1993, three 8-year-old boys were murdered in West Memphis, Ark. Because the bodies were mutilated when discovered, the authorities assumed they were killed by Satanic worshippers.
"The exhaustive and comprehensive documentary "West of Memphis" chronicles the case of the West Memphis Three (WM3), in which three teenagers were wrongfully convicted of an atrocious crime they did not commit. As both a document of sustained injustice and a complex, investigative murder mystery, it's an extremely compelling film.
Damien Echols, an 18-year-old delinquent, became the prime suspect since he had a criminal record and was known to be a Satanist. He and his friends Jessie Misskelley, and Jason Baldwin, 16, were tried and convicted of the murders, with Echols sentenced to death and the other two to life in prison.
ALEX LAMB alamb@kansan.com
Director Amy Berg begins the story from the tragic perspective of one of the victim's mothers, describing the day her little boy disappeared. Berg establishes the background of the case and why it was so easy for authorities to pin the charges on Echols, Misskelley and Baldwin before shifting the focus of the movie to their side.
In the beginning she assembles
a portrait of a devastated community in the Bible Belt, featuring interviews, court testaments and recordings that reasonably point to the WM3 being guilty. And then she digs deeper, exposing the reality of the situation piece by piece.
Berg gives voice to Echols while he's on death row and the woman who married him, who dedicated her life to bringing out the truth and freeing the WM3. As new DNA evidence emerges, a strong case for the innocence of the WM3 is constructed, gaining enormous support and even advocacy from people like Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder and director Peter Jackson.
Jackson even helps bring new DNA proof to light that not only elucidates details about the murders, but also points toward the real killer, which makes for a very unsettling turn of events. Berg wisely allows these developments to take hold of the narrative as they gain traction. She builds tension in the story with deeper interviews and deposition footage, veering away from the actual WM3 frequently to grow it into a much more fascinating and larger saga.
She also manages to show virtually all sides to the case. What's particularly interesting are the interviews of judges, lawyers and senators who repeatedly fight against granting a new trial in the

THE PODCAST
http://bit.ly/YhZTyl
At two-and-a-half hours, "West of Memphis" stands as an epic documentary tale, arduous in the journey but never too long or undeserving of such a thorough treatment. It effectively condenses more than 18 years of a twisting case into a cohesive and well-told story, consistently dramatic and emotionally resonant. If you're unfamiliar with the West Memphis Three, their story is more than worth your time, and this is the way to experience it.
face of so much new evidence. The manipulation by the original prosecution and how far the state of Arkansas went to prevent a retrial for 17 years both prove quite disturbing in their implications for our justice system.

Investigation continues into release of private information
LOS ANGELES — The first lady and the Vice President are among the latest public figures to have their private information posted on a mysterious website, and the Secret Service has joined the investigation into the postings that include documents from people ranging from rapper Jay-Z to the head of the FBI.
The site includes Social Security numbers, credit reports, addresses and phone numbers.

It bears an Internet suffix originally assigned to the Soviet Union, and many of the pages feature unflattering pictures or taunting messages of the person featured. Others whose information is posted include pop star Britney Spears, Attorney General Eric Holder, former Alaska governor Sarah Palin and former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger.
In this file photo, Jay-Z poses backstage at the 55th annual Grammy Awards. Jay-Z is among 11 celebrities and government officials whose private financial information appears to have been posted online by a site that began garnering attention on Monday.
Both the FBI and the Secret Service said Tuesday they were investigating the site.
White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said he had "no assessments to offer" on the situation and referred questions to the Secret Service, which wouldn't provide further details.
The site grew from 11 names to 18 in the first 24 hours since it became public, with its operator adding additional features to count the number of visitors and a link to a Twitter account. It offers no explanation about why the targets were selected or how the information was obtained. The Twitter account includes an

Social Security numbers are not public records, although they used to be included in some court filings. Many courts require the information be redacted from filings since the numbers can be used to steal a person's identity and open credit accounts in their name.
