Cross the Line A dangerous line has been crossed when a county prosecutor (who claims he is acting only as a private citizen) uses his position and stature to make such serious accusations against a newspaper (“Wag the

Dog,” San Jose Inside, May 29). If prosecutor Gillingham truly has evidence of such crimes, why is he jeopardizing this case by going public as a private citizen before charges are filed?

Catwalk Cattiness [Vernon Davis] should be getting ready for football! (“End Run at the Row,” Events, May 29).

STEVEO

Job Description What bothers me about all of this is that according his biography on the Santa Clara University site, Charles Gillingham’s current assignment is the sexual assault unit. If something illegal is going on he should prosecute. If he isn’t prosecuting, then just what the heck is he doing?

All Tied Up The law is nonsense and the Attorney General’s opinion is nonsense (“Regular Joe,” The Fly, May 29). We have tied up our elected officials so much that they can’t govern. Supervisor Joe Simitian is right and all of these ethics laws are costing the taxpayers millions, failing to address any real ethical issues and giving fools the tools to stop government progress.

Sunshine—really?

REVIEW

INFO WARS A new documentary looks at the complex history of WikiLeaks.

Uncovering THE STORY beggars fiction. It links a lofty Australian hacker, a gender-confused Army PFC from the Oklahoma town where Karen Silkwood died and a pale Sacramento geek who sends emails reading, “I’m a minister and a journalist. You can treat this is as a confession or an interview.”

We Steal Secrets: The Story of WikiLeaks, a documentary by Alex Gibney, shows good work that began in idealism and ended in acrimony, solitary confinement and televangelist-worthy money begging.

Gibney recounts the heights of Julian Assange’s WikiLeaks at its best. After Sept. 11, the U.S. government increased by nine times the number of classified documents. Some of this material was more embarrassing than sensitive. WikiLeaks exposed covered-up civilian casualties and the information that Pakistan was conniving with the Taliban.

Flaunting their insufficient memory of the Pentagon Papers case, WikiLeaks’ people called this the biggest exposure of government secrets ever.

The film offers a real martyr: U.S. Army Private First Class Bradley Manning, imprisoned, tortured and prosecuted for leaking the information that The New York Times sold on newsstands. Manning’s betrayer, Adrian Lamo, speaks to the camera. What scared Lamo into snitching is the same thing behind Assange’s understandable paranoia.

There’s a popular prejudice that Assange’s Swedish sexual-assault case was a CIA honey trap. We Steal Secrets makes some very hard-to-refute points about this sordid affair. Gibney interviews “Anna” (one of the two accusers), who was given a world-class slut-shaming. This film asks a very tough question: Given that the United Kingdom has been doing the U.S.’s bidding relentlessly, why is Assange safer from rendition in We Steal Norfolk than he would be Secrets in Stockholm? The received idea is that Assange has R; 130 min. blood on his hands, but as Opens Friday reporter Heather Brooke puts it, there’s a difference between “speculative blood” and the blood spilled by the murderers of Afghan civilians.

Ultimately, this excellent documentary shows the problems of being speculative, of being an “information libertarian,” as opposed to being a drudge working in a news field of slow, systematic vetting. It also suggests the derangement of Internet living and the drawbacks of being permanently online. Among the clips Gibney uses is the sequence in War Games where Matthew Broderick asks a computer if World War III has started or if it’s all just a game. The computer replies, “What’s the difference?”—Richard von Busack

FRANCES HA (R; 86 min.) Like Woody Allen, director Noah Baumbach looks back at the French New Wave, photographing his collaborator, lead actress and girlfriend Greta Gerwig, in radiant black-and-white. During her 27th year of her life, Frances and her dependably plain ex-college pal Sophia (Mickey Summer) are housemates and best friends forever, pledged to being “undatable.” But

Sophia moves up, settling in with a boyfriend she supposedly didn’t like much—and it turns out that he makes serious money. Frances meanwhile gets edged out from her Manhattan dance troupe and starts taking the path of least resistance to one after another of several shared apartments. The film’s not fluffy. It notes weight of rent on prevaricating artist types with no visible means of support. And there’s pretty constant class-card playing—the money woes help make Frances the

awkward one among the smooth people she knows. Frances Ha makes a star out of Gerwig, and she’s the kind of star we need: a goofy one we can feel tender about but never underestimate. (RvB)

THE GREAT GATSBY (PG-13; 143 min.) “His determination to have my company bordered on violence,” says Nick Carraway of Tom Buchanan, and that sums up the film’s nervousness. It is deemed a turkey, although it is actually a turducken— there isn’t enough room to stuff in any more cinematic motifs. Anachronistic music, intended to link yesteryear’s gangster to today’s mobster, is the least problem of Baz Lurhmann’s atrocity. The soundtrack rattles you out of the era, but the era has to be relentlessly explained to the viewer.

This is a literal movie; 5-year-olds will know that the spectacles of Dr. T.J. Eckleburg are the eyes of God because they’re told so. A wraparound device has Carraway (Tobey Maguire) as cracked up as Fitzgerald himself. Nick writes under the direction of a kindly therapist (the late Jack Thompson). In a smart movie, this doctor could have offered some counterpoint, some of

the second thoughts that make for a deathless novel. Leonardo DiCaprio, too old for the part of Gatsby, is introduced with a cloudburst of fireworks over his King Ludwig/Thomas Kincaid castle while “Rhapsody in Blue” reaches a crescendo; it’s obvious that Lurhmann mistakes Gatsby for Walt Disney.

As Daisy, Cary Mulligan adds to her Manic Pixie Dream Girl repertoire a breakthrough Depressive Pixie Dream Girl. (RvB)

THE HANGOVER PART III (R; 100 min.) Another journey into the heart of darkness. Stars Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis.

IRON MAN 3 (PG-13, 130 min.) A mad bomber called the Mandarin (Ben Kingsley) provokes Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) into a bring-it-on challenge on TV; afterward, our hero is in rural exile, left with only one battered and malfunctioning flying suit. A haywire Stark is essential to the franchise, but director/co-writer Shane Black has a bullying side left over from his days of scripting actioners. Despite some big diversions, the film has a cold, sour quality that persists all the way to an Easter egg that says Stark’s feelings

THE INCREDIBLE UNTOLD TRUE STORY OF WIKILE AKS “BRILLIANT & PROFOUND! AN INCREDIBLE STORY!” “ALTOGETHER ENTHRALLING! I thrilled to WikiLeaks’ revelations!”

aren’t worth talking about. Kingsley gets to run with his part in more than one direction, but Gwyneth Paltrow’s Pepper is fairly misused—the key to Paltrow’s most beloved performances in these movies is keeping her as far away from pain as possible. Whatever its failings, the film is amusing enough to take your mind off your bills, and it’s a wicked 9/11 allegory. An arc of overreaction to “what happened in New York” (allegedly the alien invasion in The Avengers, but we get it) is compounded by the folly of taking the Mandarins of the world at face value.

(RvB)

NOW YOU SEE ME (PG-13) A thriller about an international search for bank-robbing tricksters.

Stars Jesse Eisenberg and Mark Ruffalo.

STAR TREK—INTO DARKNESS (PG-13; 132 min.) An intergalactic terrorist (Benedict Cumberbatch) turns out to be a familiar character from the Trek canon, so much so that the film reprises the best scene in the single best film in the old Trek series, only from a different angle. In addition to the customary lens flairs, director J.J. Abrams includes some allegory about the illegalities of drone strikes to give some impact to the big-money sequence: a starship crash into San Francisco after a warp-speed dogfight. The film is underfemaled: the real romance is right where the slashfiction writers always said it was. The emphasis on emotions may be hard on fans who liked the old arrangement, where Spock (Zachary Quinto) would look at Kirk (Chris Pine) and we’d cry—instead the new one where we watch them cry.

ADVICE GODDESS

By AMY ALKON

AdviceAmy@AOL.com

My girlfriend and I love each other, but we feel we’re becoming numb to hearing it from each other. We’ve been together three years, so I assume that time is what’s put a damper on the “three little words.” I suggested that when we are about to say “I love you,” we come up with something more personal and meaningful. This, sadly, was difficult and lasted about a day. Now we’re back to expressing affection the rote way. Yes, we could have a bigger problem, but beneath this is a bigger worry—that the relationship will get old, too.—Same-Old, Same-Old The pressure to be original in love can be pretty trying. Imagine Shakespeare tentatively mumbling to a woman “Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?” and hearing back, “Ugh, Will ... for the third time this week?”

Likewise, the first time you heard “I love you” from your girlfriend, you probably thought, “Wow, she loves me!

Hot damn!” But once a relationship gets going, sometimes “I love you!” wells up from the bottom of the heart and sometimes from the need to say something a little more feel-good than “Gotta get you off the phone so I can clean up this cat vomit.” Sometimes, one partner is needy and says it constantly so they can hear it back constantly.

So, yes, it’s probably time for a little rationing of “I love you” if it’s become shorthand for everything short of “pass the salt.” But there’s actually research

by Dr. Sara Algoe and others showing that expressions of appreciation seem to keep a relationship alive, keeping partners from taking each other for

granted and feeling taken for granted.

This doesn’t necessarily require blithering on in detail about your partner’s great qualities, especially not when you both know what you’re really saying with a laughing “I love you!” is “You are simply the greatest for coming over and resting your boobs on my head while I’m stuck writing these boring reports.”

Of course, one of the best ways to make “I love you” more meaningful is by showing it—ideally, at least once a day. This could involve small kindnesses like getting up to refill your girlfriend’s drink or somewhat bigger (and ickier) kindnesses like telling her to stay put while you clean up after her puking cat.

Any guy can go through the romantic motions—say “I love you” on Valentine’s Day with $50 worth of chocolate truffles and a suspiciously funerary flower arrangement—but it takes a truly loving guy to say it on a random Tuesday with a rag full of cat vomit.

Is there a nice way to tell your girlfriend that you really don’t like what she wears to come hang out with your friends? My girlfriend can look so cute in certain outfits, but whenever we’re seeing my friends, it seems she dresses more conservatively, and often, she really looks kind of frumpy. I’m not looking for her to look like a stripper. I just want her to look as good as she does when she’s out with her friends or we’re out together.—Holding Back A woman can go a little too far in trying to avoid crossing the border from sexy to slutty—all the way over to “sturdy Amish woman about to churn butter.” Chances are, your girlfriend thinks she’s protecting you—keeping you from looking bad in the eyes of your friends or from worrying that she’s covertly shopping for your replacement.

Unfortunately, women don’t always understand the workings of competition between men. Basically, it’s good to get the girl. It’s even better if your guy friends and any passing male strangers hate you a little for it.

To get your girlfriend to dress a little more Mad Men than Ma from Little

House on the Prairie, pose a question to her with a compliment folded in: “Hey, can I ask you something? You dress so cute when it’s just us hanging out. It seems like you feel the need to dress more conservatively when we’re out with my friends.”

Explain that she really doesn’t have to do that and add, “I just want everyone to see how gorgeous you are.”

The compliment will rise to the top, and she should get the message: You aren’t asking her to wear something that will have drunks trying to slip dollar bills in her bra, just something more in keeping with a night likelier to end in a game of poker than a plague of prairie locusts.

PUBLIC NOTICE OF PETITION ADMINISTER ESTATE OF NORMA SARA SUTTER CASE NO. 113PR172648 To all heirs beneficiaries creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both of NORMA SARA SUTTER. A Petition for Probate has been filed by CARRIE ANN SMITH in the Superior Court of California, County of SANTA CLARA. THE PETITION for PROBATE requests that CARRIE ANN SMITH be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

THE PETITION requests the decedent’s WILL and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate.

The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court.

THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority willallow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval.

Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant authority. A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: on July 3, 2013 at 9 a.m. in Dept. 3 located at 191 NORTH FIRST STREET, SAN JOSE, CA, 95113. IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state our objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing.

Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult an attorney knowledgeable in California law. YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a formal Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request

for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

By ROB BREZSNY week of June 5

ARIES (March 21–April 19): The longest natural

or higher, you stand a good chance of achieving a spiritual epiphany that will fuel you for months.

TAURUS (April 20–May 20): I hope that in recent

SCORPIO (Oct. 23–Nov. 21): Resurrection is the Scorpionic specialty. Better than any other sign of the zodiac, you can summon the power to be reborn. It is your birthright to reanimate dreams and feelings and experiences that have expired, and make them live again in new forms. Your sacred totem is the mythical phoenix, which burns itself in a fire of its own creation and then regenerates itself from the ashes. Now here’s the big news headline, Scorpio: I have rarely seen you in possession of more skill to perform these rites than you have right now.

arch in the world is the Fairy Bridge in Guangxi Province, China. Made of limestone, this 400-footwide span crosses over the Buliu River. No one outside of China knew about it until 2009, when an American explorer spied it on Google Earth. Let’s make the Fairy Bridge your metaphor of the month, Aries. Judging by the astrological omens, I suspect there’s a good chance you will soon find something like a natural, previously hidden bridge. In other words, be alert for a link between things you didn’t know were connected. weeks you’ve made yourself a master of sticky and intricate details. I trust you’ve been working harder and smarter than you have in a long time. Have you, Taurus? Have you been grunting and sweating a lot, exerting yourself in behalf of good causes? Please tell me you have. And please say you’re willing to continue for a while longer. The way I see it, your demanding tasks aren’t quite finished. In fact, the full reward for your efforts may not become available unless you keep pushing beyond the point that you consider to be your fair share.

GEMINI (May 21–June 20): How free do you

want to be, Gemini? A tiny bit free, hemmed in by comfortable complications that require you to rely on white lies? Or would you rather be moderately free in ways that aren’t too demanding—politely, sensibly free? Maybe you feel brave and strong enough to flirt with a breathtaking version of liberation—a pure, naked freedom that brings you close to the edge of wild abandon and asks you to exercise more responsibility than you’re used to. I’m not telling you which kind you should opt for, but I am suggesting that it’s best if you do make a conscious choice.

CANCER (June 21–July 22): In August 1961, the Communist government of East Germany built the Berlin Wall. It was a thick concrete barrier designed to prevent the oppressed citizens of East Berlin from escaping to freedom in West Berlin. The barrier was eventually policed by armed guards. Traffic between the two Berlins became virtually impossible for the next 28 years. Then a miracle occurred: East German authorities relinquished their stranglehold.

They tentatively allowed East Berliners to travel to West Berlin. Soon the Mauerspechte, or “wall woodpeckers,” showed up. Armed with hammers and chisels, these people began chipping away at the Wall. Two years later, most of it had been demolished.

I hereby assign you to be a wall woodpecker in your own sphere, Cancer. The time is right to demolish a barricade. It may take a while, but you’re ready to start.

LEO (July 23–Aug. 22): The following slogan captures the spirit I bring to composing my horoscopes: “I live in the future so that you don’t have to.” But right now this slogan doesn’t apply to you.

From what I can tell, you are currently visiting the future as much as I do. Here’s what I wonder, though: Are you time-traveling simply to run away from the dilemmas that face you in the present? Or are you taking advantage of your jaunts to acquire revelations that will help you solve those dilemmas once you return?

VIRGO (Aug. 23–Sept. 22): You know that there

are different kinds of stress, right? Some varieties wear you out and demoralize you, while other kinds of stress excite and motivate you. Some lead you away from your long-term goals, and others propel you closer. The coming weeks would be an excellent time for you to fine-tune your ability to distinguish between them. I suspect that the more you cultivate and seek out the good kind, the less susceptible you’ll be to the bad kind.

LIBRA (Sept. 23–Oct. 22): Studies show that people spend 87 percent of their time inside buildings and 6 percent in enclosed vehicles. In other words, they are roaming around outside enjoying the wind and sky and weather for only 7 percent of their lives. I think you’re going to have to do better than that in the coming week, Libra. To ensure your mental hygiene stays robust, you should try to expose yourself to the natural elements at least nine percent of the time.

If you manage to hike that rate up to ten percent

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22–Dec. 21): Octavio Paz

spoke to a lover in his poem “Counterparts”: “In my body you search the mountain for the sun buried in its forest. In your body I search for the boat adrift in the middle of the night.” What have you searched for in the bodies of your lovers, Sagittarius? What mysteries and riddles have you explored while immersed in their depths? How has making love helped you to better understand the meaning of life? I invite you to ruminate on these uncanny joys. Remember the breakthroughs that have come your way thanks to sex. Exult in the spiritual education you have received through your dealings with lust and sensuality. And then go out and stir up some fresh epiphanies.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22–Jan. 19): Do you know what

minced oaths are? They’re rarely used anymore. If you went back a hundred years, though, you’d hear them regularly. They were sanitized swear words, basically—peculiar exclamations that would allow people the emotional release of profanities without causing a ruckus among those who were listening.

“Bejabbers!” was one. So were “thunderation! and “dad-blast!” and “consarn!” Here’s one of my favorite minced oaths: “By St. Boogar and the saints at the backside door of purgatory!” I bring this up, Capricorn, because I suspect it’ll be a minced oath kind of week for you. What I mean is: You’ll have every right to get riled up, and you should express your feelings, but not in ways that create problems for you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20–Feb. 18): There’s only one correct way to spell the English word “beauty.” But that wasn’t true centuries ago. Before the advent of the printing press, orthographic anarchy prevailed for many words. Some of beauty’s variations included bewte, beaute, beaultye, beuaute, bealte, buute, bewtee, and beaultye. I bring this up, Aquarius, because I think it would be fun and healthy for you to take a respite from having to slavishly obey standardized rules. I’m talking about not just those that apply to spelling, but others, too. See what you can get away with.

PISCES (Feb. 19–March 20): In the last chapter of

Fyodor Dostoevsky’s novel The Brothers Karamazov, the lead character says the following: “There is nothing nobler, stronger, healthier, and more helpful in life than a good remembrance, particularly a remembrance from childhood. A beautiful, holy memory preserved from childhood can be the single most important thing in our development.” I bring this up, Pisces, so as to get you in the right frame of mind for this week’s featured activity: remembrance.

One of the greatest gifts you can give yourself is to reminisce about the old days and the old ways. To do so will enhance your physical health and purify your emotional hygiene.

Homework: I dare you to do something that you will remember with pride and passion until the end of your days. Testify at Freewillastrology.com.
