If a man would rather spend time with his ipod than his wife, that marriage was in trouble long before the ipod came on the scene.

Hubcap Art
British artist Ptolemy Elrington is such a staunch believer that one man's junk is another man's treasure,- that he makes a living from it. Working from his studio in Brighton, England he spends his days making beautiful sculptures from discarded car hubcaps.
Ptolemy's creative vocation began quite accidentally. He happened to live in a neighborhood in Bradford, England, which had a road with a very sharp turn, where cars often ended losing their hubcaps in the ditch near the roadside. He started to pick them up, hoping to collect enough to make a suit of armor. However, he noticed that they had interesting marine-like shapes, which could be turned into realistic-looking fish and other sea creatures.
His first scultptures were created for gifts to give friends and family. However as more people asked for them, Ptolemy realized that he had a business. Now seven years later, he is working full-time on his creations, mainly doing specially ordered commissions for companies and government agencies.
Since he still gets all his raw materials free from the junkyards and only charges for his time, his sculptures are very affordable. His most expensive creation to-date is the dragon pictured above, which was made from 200 hubcaps and took him a month to build. He sold it for $5,000 USD. His smaller sculptures which include lizards, toucans and flies, cost between $400-$1,000 USD, quite reasonable for such stunning creations.
Ptolemy, who always has about 500 hubcaps in stock, uses between 10 to 200 for each of his creations. While he can convert a hubcap from any car model into a piece of art, his two favorites are Mercedes and BMW, which are very flexible and do not snap. He also likes the hubcap from the Ford Ka, (similar to the Ford Fiesta), which resembles a shark's mouth. More of Ptolemy's creations can be viewed on his website at www.hubcapcreatures.com

Canada's Insurance and Risk Magazine
Over the next five years, the global temperature increase will not be as great as Britain's national weather service predicted a year ago, but Met Office forecasts global warming will continue, while a Canadian climate expert suggests extreme weather events will still become more common.
"The latest decadal prediction suggests that global temperatures over the next five years are likely to be a little lower than predicted from the previous prediction issued in December 2011," according to a press release Tuesday from Britain's Met Office. "However, both versions are consistent in predicting that we will continue to see near-record levels of global temperatures in the next few years."
The Met Office decadal forecasts are near-term climate predictions, designed to account for natural variability and climate change. Met Office has several units, including Britain's public weather service and the Hadley Centre, a climate research arm funded mainly by the British government's departments of Energy and Climate Change and Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.
Over the next five years, Met Office says, temperatures are predicted, in the 90% confidence range, to be between 0.28 and 0.59 degrees Celsius above the average between 1971 and 2000.
"I always look at these (five-year) temperature forecasts with very large grain of salt," Michael Pisaric, an assistant professor of geography at Brock University in St. Catharines, Ont. told Canadian Underwriter. "I always look more at what the long-term trends are suggesting, or are showing, as opposed to these shorter time scales. I always cringe when they say 'Well, in the next five years it's going to be cooler than what they had predicted a year ago.'"
According to the Met Office, 1998 was the warmest year in its 160-year Hadley Centre global temperature record, with a temperature of 0.40°C above the long-term average.
"The forecast of continued global warming is largely driven by increasing levels of greenhouse gases," Met Office states.
This, Pisaric said, will likely lead to more extreme weather.
"As long as temperatures continue to rise, and maybe not at the level they have risen over the past years, but if they continue to rise, we're going to have more of these extreme weather events," he said.
"I think as long as our economic policies are they way they are, and we keep putting more carbon dioxide up into the atmosphere, the temperature's going to continue to rise, so we will see more of these events continue to happen. If you took a poll of a bunch of researchers, I think they would agree."
Pisaric's areas of expertise include climate change and arctic ecosystems. He has co-authored several papers, on topics including the effects of thawing permafrost in the MacKenzie Delta uplands in northern Canada. He has a PhD from Queen's University and his papers have been published in journals including Freshwater Biology and Environmental Science and Technology.
When Pisaric looked at Met Office graphs, he noticed a large difference, in some years, between what the models used by the Met Office had predicted and what actually happened.
"The models are certainly a lot better than what we had five or 10 years ago, so they are starting to get things right but when you're trying to make predictions for a decade out, you have to factor in things like El Nino and La Nina," Pisaric said. "We're getting better at predicting those but we still have a really, really long ways to go."

Moscow - Russia will sign former England manager Fabio Capello on a two-year deal next week with a mission to guide the squad into the 2014 World Cup after a disappointing Euro 2012, a newspaper here claimed on Friday.
The Sport Express daily said the 66-year-old Italian has been offered up to six million euros ($7.3 million) per year to take over from Dutchman Dick Advocaat, who has left the team for PSV Eindhoven.
Capello, who came to Moscow on Thursday for talks with top Russian Football Union officials, has reportedly agreed to include Russian assistant coaches in his squad.
Igor Shalimov and Dmitry Alenichev, who have experience playing with Italian Serie A clubs and both speak the language, are top contenders to join Capello's coaching team, the report said.
Capello has coached Italian clubs AC Milan, Roma, Juventus and Spanish giants Real Madrid, winning domestic titles with each of the clubs, before becoming England manager in 2007.
Under Capello, England qualified for Euro 2012 before the Italian resigned after falling out with Football Association chiefs.
Top Russian football officials sounded confident they could agree to terms with one of the biggest coaching names in the sport.
"Capello is ready to work conscientiously and live here in Russia," RFU deputy president Nikita Simonyan was quoted as saying.
"He did not make any extraordinary demands. He was pleased with the RFU's serious interest to his services."

Despite the recent flood of high profile network breaches, hacking attempts are hardly new. In 1995, I was attending school in Helsinki when I discovered a password "sniffer" attack in our university network. In response, I wrote a program called the "secure shell" to safeguard information as it traveled from point to point within the network. This new program shielded all of our data and ensured that these kinds of attacks didn't jeopardize our logins.
This program, SSH, works by developing an encryption key pair - one key for the server and the other key for the user's computer - and encrypting the data that is transferred between those two keys. Currently, almost every major network environment - including those in large enterprises, financial institutions and governments - uses a version of SSH to preserve data in transit and let administrators operate systems remotely. Organizations use SSH to encrypt everything from health records to logins, financial data and other personal information.
Management of Keys a Low Priority
Despite the fact that SSH keys safeguard extremely sensitive information, companies have been incredibly casual at managing SSH key generation, access and location throughout their network environments. It's similar to a home security company making numerous copies of a person's housekeys, throwing them all over the streets and never changing the lock. The only things needed to pick up one of these keys and use it to access encrypted data are interest, time and a little know-how.
Organizations are constantly leaving themselves open to security breaches and noncompliance with federal regulations by not being more diligent about SSH key management. Many are incapable of controlling who creates keys, how many are created, or where they are positioned in the network after being dispensed and those discrepancies will lead them to network-wide attacks.
Swept Under the Rug
The issue has remained concealed in the IT department, guarded by its vastly technical nature and frequent organizational challenges. System administrators may not appreciate or understand the full scope of the problem because they typically only see a small piece of their environment. On the other side of the company, even if executives and business managers recognize that there is an issue, they are usually too busy to evaluate its scope or possible implications.
SSH key mismanagement is as mysterious as it is widespread. Through dialogs with prominent governments, financial institutions and enterprises, we have determined that on average most companies have between eight and over 100 SSH keys in their environments that allow access to each Unix/Linux server. Some of these keys also permit high-level root access, allowing servers to be vulnerable to "high-risk" insiders. These "insiders," including anyone who has ever been given server access, can use these mismanaged SSH keys to gain permanent access to production servers.
Mismanaged SSH Keys Give Viruses the Advantage
Each day, the probability increases of such a breach occurring. Attacks are becoming more prevalent and sophisticated, and news stories about network breaches are popping up daily. Using SSH keys as an attack vector in a virus is very easy, requiring only a few hundred lines of code. Once a virus secures successful entry, it can use mismanaged SSH keys to spread from server to server throughout the company.
Key-based access networks are so closely connected that it is extremely likely that a successful attack will travel through all organizational servers, especially if the virus also uses additional attack vectors to increase privileges to "root" after breaching a server. With the high number of keys being distributed, it is likely that the virus will infect nearly all servers within minutes, including disaster recovery and backup servers that are typically also managed using such keys.
In the worst case scenario, a virus utilizing numerous attack vectors could spread Internet-wide, rapidly and, combined with dissolution technologies, could corrupt enormous quantities of data.
Industry Regulations Flouted
Organizations lacking proper SSH key management protocols are not only vulnerable to security breaches, they are also out of compliance with mandatory security requirements and laws. SOX, FISMA, PCI and HIPAA are all industry regulations that require control of server access as well as the ability to discontinue that access. Additionally, companies may also be disregarding internal security practices (in some cases, policies mandated by customers).
The SSH protocol and its most commonly used implementations do not create these risks. Rather, it is the result of faulty protocols relating to SSH keys, inadequate time and means to research the problem to develop solutions, lack of understanding of the implications of the issue and the hesitancy of auditors to flag problems that they do not have solutions for.
Clearly the issue of SSH keys being improperly managed cannot be glossed over forever. Without auditing, controlling, or terminating SSH key-based access to their IT systems and data properly, most healthcare providers, enterprises and government agencies are easy targets for an attacker.
Steps to Combat the Risks
Before steps can be taken to solve a problem, it must be identified as a legitimate issue. It may take multiple IT teams to begin a remediation project and will require proper endorsement and support within the company.
There are multiple steps that make up the core of the remediation project:
- Automating key setups and key removals; eliminating human errors, manual work and reducing the amount of administrators from hundreds to almost none.
- Controlling what commands can be executed using each key and where the keys can be used from.
- Enforcing proper protocols for establishing keys and other key operations.
- Monitoring the environment in order to determine which keys are actively in use and removing keys that are no longer being used.
- Rotating keys, i.e., switching out every authorized key (and corresponding identity keys) on a regular basis, so that any compromised (copied) keys stop working.
- Unearthing all current trust-relationships (who has access to what).
The Future of Security
SSH continues to be the gold standard for data-in-transit security but the management of SSH network access must be addressed by organizations in the current threat landscape.
Nearly all of the Fortune 500 and several prominent government agencies are inadvertently putting themselves at risk to major security threats from hackers or rogue employees because they continue to operate out of compliance. This problem cannot be solved overnight. It will take numerous years and thousands of well-trained people to fully combat the problem. It must be the entire organization's responsibility to address the issue. Time must be allotted and it must become a priority to ensure that SSH user keys are properly managed in their companies.

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

Marlene Elve (Yeater) Doty(1939 - 2013)
DOTY (YEATER), MARLENE ELVA Born on November 24, 1939 in Chico, CA and was called home by our Lord Jesus on November 7, 2013 in Citrus Heights, CA near Sacramento. Marlene was survived by her husband, Darrell Doty, son Dave Doty, daughter Dana Mann, grandchildren Joshua Doty and Sarah Doty, and cherished cousins, nephews, in-laws, and friends. Marlene was preceded in death by her father and mother, Bill and Dorothy Yeater, and her sister, Lois Kohl. Marlene grew up in Chico, CA and was involved in various athletics in school. She met her husband, Darrell, when she was in Jr Hi; they dated for many years, eloped to Reno, and were married in February of 1959 when she was 19. Marlene completed cosmetology school in June before she moved to Salinas in 1959 for a short time while Darrell was serving in the
at Fort Ord. Soon after, they moved to Sacramento. Darrell started a 35-year career with the State of California, and Marlene worked for several in beauty salons and at home. Marlene was a homemaker and mother, raising her two children. She was known for her sense of humor, her hospitality, the care of her family, and her many friendships. Later in life, she suffered from a degenerative, neuro-logical disorder and spent almost 10 years in an assisted living facility. Many thanks are due to her daughter, Dana, and the staff of Manor Care in Citrus Heights for providing compassionate support for her so faithfully during the years leading up to her death. Her big smile and infectious laugh will be dearly missed. A celebration for family and close friends will be held in her honor on Thursday, November 14th.

Another teen needlessly murdered in cold blood by a "responsible gun owner". The 13 year old's crime to justify death? He laughed at his assailant. Welcome to the America that the right, NRA and ignorant gun nuts hold so dear.
Yesterday the news was a flutter with details of the leaked autopsy report the grand jury is using to investigate the shooting death of Michael Brown. Now the DOJ has condemned that move as trying to sway the public. They also cited the release of the video of Brown's alteration with a store owner just minutes before the shooting as part of this campaign. A few weeks ago we heard reports that someone on the grand jury was talking, and with this new information, it's starting to make me wonder if that isn't the case. If it's not the jury, then it is someone on the prosecution's team, since they are the only ones in the court room. Either way, it's time to pull that grand jury and call in a special prosecutor so that we can get the truth.
No I'm not talking about a threat of an outbreak, but rather just how reactionary we are as a nation. We have people freaking out, listening to the talking heads and politicians, instead of the medical professionals. Apparently all the doctors saying an outbreak basically won't happen here, are in some type of collusion to misinform the people so that Obama can kill of America. Then, in the next breath, they have a hissy-fit because Obama's Ebola Czar isn't a doctor. It's really mind boggling just how dumb and cowardly America has become.
With More Cases Of Ebola, It's Time To Talk Sick Days
I had been wondering where Rick Perry, usually a lover of media time, has been during all this Ebola stuff in Texas. Well now we know. Breitbart is reporting that he has taken to Europe for some travels while his state's medical system is exposing serious gaps in protocols. And you thought Obama golfing was bad....
After news broke that the Dallas Hospital was highly unprepared to handle a case of Ebola, and didn't even have the common protective equipment for their workers, we now find out that another worker in that hospital has contracted the disease. It's at the point that even Sanjay Gupta is fed up with the inadequate handling of the case by the Texas hospital.
In a Facebook post a bit ago, founder Mark Zuckerberg announced that him and his wife Priscilla are donating $25 million to the CDC Foundation to help fight Ebola. They deserve a huge kudos on this, as we can't rely on our government, particularly the party that controls the House, to pony up any more money to help.
Early this morning Texas officials released a statement that a healthcare worker at the hospital Thomas Eric Duncan was a patient has tested positive for Ebola. There isn't many details yet, meaning none really. Things I am interested in finding out include this person's actual job capacity, when this person was treating Duncan (was it after his diagnosis and quarantine, or before), and exactly how this person contracted it, given the fact that Ebola can only be caught through direct contact with bodily fluid and must have an entry point, such as a cut, mouth, eyes, etc.
Ebola And Rick Perry's 3am Call
One of the NRA's favorite talking points is "well if they had a gun too". It's a way to urge more Americans to go out and buy guns, as that will some how make them safer. Well that was tried and tested by William Coleman III of Oregon. He was out, open and carrying his gun, when an armed robber came up and told him "I like your gun, now give it to me". William complied and was left open and not carrying.
The Supreme Court declined to hear the appeals of same-sex marriage bans that have been previously overturned by the lower courts, essentially making gay marriage the law of the land in this country. Of course this doesn't set things in stone. Another case could uphold the ban and the Supreme Court could then decide to hear that case and rule for the ban, reversing what was done today. Seems like a lot of games to play with the lives of people that just want to get married, and also seems like a cowardly way out for the nation's highest court.
Facebook Promotes The Capture And Removal Of President Obama
There was just a shooting at a high school in Louisville, Kentucky, which left one student hospitalized and an active search on for the shooter. This follows a high school shooting in North Carolina earlier, which also left a student hospitalized and the shooter in custody. When is America going to care about the future generations and take action to stop these? They say more guns is the answer, but we have a record number of guns in this country now, and a climbing rate of these shootings. That theory has fallen flat, so it's time for new action.
The FCC voted unanimously this morning to drop the NFL blackout rule, which dictated attendance levels at a home game in order for it to be televised. This doesn't mean it's the end of blackouts, as the greedy team owners and networks could still try to impose them, but it is a step closer. I always viewed these as one of the biggest scams out there. Most stadiums are paid for by tax dollars, to host a team that plays for a non-profit organization. If there was ever a picture perfect excuse of moochers, then you need to look no further than the National Football League.
This weekend a cop was shot in the arm while investigating a possible break-in near Ferguson. Of course this quickly evolved into the "violent protestors" from many on the right, despite this incident having nothing to do with it. But what's really troubling is the police accounts. Last night they reported that no burglary was taking place and that the officer shot did have a body cam, but it wasn't turned on. Police officials are saying they have no idea why the officer turned it off, making you wonder what kind of investigating they are doing down there.

West Coast rapper Game has acknowledged Gucci Mane's recent challenge to box any hip-hop artist and said he would gladly enter the ring.
Prior to accepting the challenge, Game detailed how big of a build Gucci has.
"I know Gucci, that's my homeboy, man, and what a lot of people don't know about Gucci is like, he like a really big dude. That's the thing. All these rappers be talking all this sh*t and all that and don't realize that n*ggas be bigger. Ain't nobody gonna know I'm 6'5, 237 pounds and Gucci is, I think, about the same height as me but he bigger than me, a little heavier than me." (Vlad TV)
He also said the boxing fight would purely be for charity and not damage their friendship.
"He put that out there and I ain't seen nobody step up yet. I don't know which context he said it in, if he was just mad and calling out everybody and pretty much saying whatever, or if he was just challenging somebody to a fight and just want to get in there and box. But I'd get in the ring and box with Gucci. That's my dude." (Vlad TV)
Gucci publicly called out any and all challengers via Twitter last week.
"I'm challenging any rapper friend or foe in the ring to a boxing match. Put yo money up. Who got hands not raps. Who wants the challenge," Gucci tweeted November 3rd.
"All Deez P*ssy a** rappers"
"The proceeds from the ring will go to charities. You scary a** Rappers" (Gucci Mane's Twitter)
Recently, Atlanta rapper Yung Joc recently discussed Gucci's publicized jabs.
"We ain't got to throw hints, the homie Gucci, sounded like he dissed me, which he did, but guess what? Listen to the name of the song, 'F the World,'" Joc said in an interview. "That's what he on right now. You see he going in at everybody neck but whatever. One thing you got to give Gucci credit for, man, the guy is a master at getting his name in your mouth. … He's learned how to do it, he's done it several times — you gotta salute that, whether you like it or not. I ain't tripping 'cause I know my financial status and situation. So it is what it is but I mean, you gotta love it." ("The Loud Pack Show")

Dearest Floeter Family all,
Pat's enthusiasm, joy, common sense, tenacity for the good causes, never accepted no for an answer, generous, loving, cheering, brave, thoughtful, what an amazing spirit, what a God's blessed soul. All these qualities she left in each and every one of us who were God blessed to be nourished by her... So much gratefulness in my heart for her beautiful example. Now she is reunited with her Sweatheart Connie, and they can be proud of the beautiful family the raised, and when kids all grown up, they kindly and generously adopted these foreigners, Dennis, Sasha and myself, there was so much they wanted to give back to life, and kept working to make someone's life better, with awareness, promoting real, human values, whether it was the neighbor or the people in her courses, her fellow Rotarians, in Church and with all their friends. Pat sparkled it all beyond boundaries, she encouraged and cheered me with the idea of making a summer exchange program between Aurora University and my home town University, and that program was a great success carrying on for many years... She succeeded as a woman, a Mom and Grandma, with all her enthusiastic work and knowledge, with all her altruist interests, including me.....
Thank you Pat! With all my love and gratefulness, thank you for all your greatness beyond boundaries, you live in everyone you touched and in all our learned Joy and Enthusiasm. From Mexico ... With all our profound sentiments and a bit of all the sparkling love we received from her, My parents and my self Paola Zamarron.

Dear John, Judy, Lily, Katie and Simon, I'm so sorry for your loss. I know Pat was so proud of you all! I'd often see her at the concerts and other music performances. She was always supportive, and would share how much she loved hearing her grandchildren's music. Her life was a blessing to many. I'm sure you were proud of her, as well.
Prayers and hugs!

I am so sorry for your loss. Your mom was a great lady..brilliant, kind, fun loving, generous, faithful, involved,...She was amazing! It seemed there was nothing she wouldn't tackle. We shared our Uncle Jim and Aunt Katherine and I like to think of Pat and Sheila as cousins.
How we (the Kelly family) looked forward to the Fitzmorris's annual summer visits when we were children!
Their presence meant that our Seattle clan would be with them for picnics and outings. We played together in the icy waters of Puget Sound, picnicked at lakes and Cedar River, rented cabins on Whidbey Island, and lamented the day when Pat and Sheila boarded the train to head east. However, the crazy songs and jokes they taught us linger till this day. In later years Pat was still loyal to our family, trying to keep me up to date on your family, and coming west for our special occasions. I will remember with fondness Pat's presence in my life and how she brightened the world in many ways!

I am so sorry to hear of Pat's death. Thinking of her evokes memories of the Fitzmorris family visits to Seattle in my growing- up years. There was great excitement in my family when word went round that the Fitzmorris's were coming. It always meant family picnics and visits to Mount Rainier and Whidbey Island where we had great fun with Pat and Sheila. We were not related but shared the devoted attention of Uncle Jim and Aunt Katherine. Pat kept this connection in our adult years and we always felt like family. When I think of her in the coming weeks and months, I'll be remembering her vivacious spirit, her thoughtfulness, and her generous heart.

What is Lesa Lewis Net Worth?
How much is Lesa Lewis Net Worth?
How much is Lesa Lewis Salary?
Lesa Lewis, with a net worth of $2.5 million, is a self employed storage unit buyer based in Texas. Her net worth has been earned largely through her tough and exacting style in the world of storage auctions, as seen on the reality TV show Storage Wars: Texas. Unlike many storage unit bidders, Lewis does not work alone. She has a partner who goes by the name of Jerry Simpson, and together they make a very formidable team, purchasing items that the owners have failed to pay rent for storage on and then reselling them through their "Again and Again Resale" thrift store. At storage auctions, Lewis is identified by her brassy personality and her loud and distinctive laugh. Her technique at auctions is methodical and exacting, often taking the full amount of time allotted to "size up" the contents of a storage unit. She and Jerry make a great pair, but there is another man in her life: Her husband Doug. One of the benefits of Lesa's unusual occupation is her surplus of time to spend with her husband at home together. But don't be fooled: At auction time, Lesa Lewis is all business, and should be one of the Storage Wars success stories before too long.

Communicating early and often with your child's teacher is an important aspect of ensuring your child has the best possible education. Yet, sometimes parent-teacher conferences can be stressful for a variety of factors. In this article we provide a how-to guide for making the most out of your parent-teacher conference experience.
The Common Core State Standards were developed as a means to prepare K-12 students for success in college or the workforce upon graduation from high school. Since their inception, they have been adopted by 43 states. While much support has been given for the standards, many criticisms have emerged as well.
Increasing birth rates among immigrant families from Asia and Central and South America, combined with lower birth rates among white families, means that for the first time in history, public school students in the United States are majority-minority. This shift in demographics poses difficulties for schools as they work to accommodate children of varying language abilities and socio-economic backgrounds.

"Phantom of the Opera": An elephant you won't soon forget

Seattle Times movie critic
In an early scene in Joel Schumacher's film version of Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical, "The Phantom of the Opera," an enormous artificial elephant lumbers onto a Paris stage, as part of an opera being rehearsed there. And that creature provides as apt a metaphor as any for Schumacher's movie: It's big, it's fake, it's overdone, it's kind of awkward. Then again, it's a pretty darned good elephant, and you find yourself admiring the thing anyway.
"Phantom of the Opera," the movie, can best be described as one hell of an elephant, lavishly staged, chunkily directed, marching determinedly on. Set in 1870 Paris and loosely based on Gaston Leroux's 1911 novel, it's the story of an innocent young soprano, Christine, and the mysterious "opera ghost" who haunts the theater where she is a chorus girl — and whose obsession with Christine causes him to clash with the man she loves, Raoul. The stage musical, awkwardly written but filled with Lloyd Webber's pretty faux-Puccini tunes and designed with great panache, premiered in London in 1986 and has since become a phenomenon; it's still going strong on both the West End and Broadway.
Alas, the candy for the ear is not quite so mellifluous. Emmy Rossum, with her enormous eyes and delicate soprano, makes a lovely, vulnerable Christine, and Patrick Wilson, smoldering in billowy white shirts, is effective as Raoul. But poor Gerard Butler, as the Phantom, spends the movie hiding his handsome face behind a mask and trying desperately to sound like a real singer. Butler's a fine actor (watch for him in the upcoming "Dear Frankie"), but he's lost here, and it's mystifying that Schumacher would cast a nonsinger in this difficult role. (All of the actors perform their own singing, except Minnie Driver, who flounces about amusingly as the out-of-control Italian diva Carlotta, sporting an accent as thick as spaghetti sauce.)
Though a few additional dialogue scenes have been added (including one that explains, plausibly, the Phantom's history), and some of the clunkiest of the lyrics discreetly rephrased, "Phantom" the movie is remarkably close to "Phantom" the stage show in its emphasis of song over dialogue and style over substance. Schumacher understands that he's dealing with spectacle here and crams as much of it in as possible; many of the songs are staged with the singers walking nonstop, so as to show us more of the sets. It's not exactly subtle — you wonder if they were issued odometers — but then again, neither is the musical.
