Oct 22, 2013It seems like the album was made for a unique objective: Charts. Devoid of any artistic intention, Prism is just another album with some mainstream songs that probably will be on top of the Billboard Hot 100.
Oct 22, 2013much ballad, very cheerful music
songs of self control and music to make it clear that you send.
Congratulations katy.

It Takes Two, and Love Me Roar course
Nov 11, 2013It seems like the album was made for a unique objective: Charts. Devoid of any artistic intention, Prism is just another album with some mainstream songs that probably will be on top of the Billboard Hot 100.
Oct 22, 2013I must admit I'm absolutely disappointed with this album.
It's Teenage Dream all over again. The music is more serious? Seriously, is it?
Do Birthday, This Is How We Do, Walking on Air, International Smile and Dark Horse seem like serious songs to you? Sure, the album has a few serious tracks, but that's what everyone expects from an album that was promised to be dark. And, it is the opposite of dark.
Katy played it safe again. All the tracks are catchy and they could do well on charts, but, they're incredibly forgettable. They not only sound alike with the songs on Teenage Dream, they also sound alike between them! By the Grace of God, Unconditionally, Roar and Walking on Air are the only standout tracks.
Katy should take more risks and try new styles. Her fans will like Prism, but the general public will hardly do.… Expand
Oct 22, 2013The musical evolution of Katy's from the songs 9 16, she really let the light in, not so cormecial as "Teenage Dream" and not as organic as "One of The Boys", she finally found herself artistically.
Oct 22, 2013Amazing!! Prism is so fresh. Katy is so fresh. Best pop singer ever!! This record is so lovely, Katy find herself e looks like she's pretty comfortable. LET THE LIGHT IN!
Oct 22, 2013Katy Perry is doing the same thing. There's just a few good songs, but all of them sounds the same. Maybe she needs to try something new. There's good lyrics on the album while the rhythm of all of them are getting Perry's back to "One of the Boys...", she needs more of the potential of "Teenage Dream".
Oct 22, 2013This album is not a masterpiece, but it shows how much Katy matured during those 3 years. It's not as commercial as Teenage Dream, but it has some hits like Legendary Lovers, Dark Horse and Unconditionally. This last song is a strong ballad that may burst eventually, I really see it as a great song; highlight verses: "Acceptance is the key to be truly free" and "I'll take your bad days with your good". Teenage Dream was so "made for party hard", but this album has both sides. The first part (1-8) shows the "fun" moment of the album, while the second (9-16) shows the strong lyrics and productions, really relevant songs. Special attention to the bonus tracks; these three tracks are her best songs ever: It Takes Two, Spiritual (I feel a piece of Alanis Morissette listening to it) and Choose Your Battles (this and By The Grace Of God both were co-produced by her). No need too much to realize that she took a step forward in her career, she just needs to focus more in her music, not only the charts.… Expand
Oct 23, 2013I don't think this album is good enough to follow up to the amazing Teenage Dream, this album just lacks something. It just gets boring after listening to the first 3-5 tracks and the last 8 tracks all seem like fillers.
Oct 24, 2013unfortunately i did not like this album, it is very superficial, it does not have a good artistic view, it´s just pop songs with trash lyrics, so it is
Oct 22, 2013The PRISM so light and airy and at the same time, is as distinct and complete. I really enjoyed what I heard and I recommend everyone to buy and listen to this wonderful album. PRISM in my opinion does not deserve negative scores.
Oct 23, 2013This is Katy Perry: fun, unpretentious and vulnerable. She's here to stay and that's definitely what PRISM conveys. A pop artist who has heart and is no longer hungry for attention-seeking antics which was so 2008. She has a lot to say and her fans will be glad that her message is catapulted to them in 16 new hooks that are sure to make you bop like crazy (Walking On Air, Dark Horse, Birthday, International Smile, This Is How We Do) or allow you to reflect on oneself as you hear Katy's highs and lows. She's basically doing all the work for her listeners. She's gone through heartaches (Ghost, Choose Your Battles) and wants her fans going through the same to pick there selves up and become stronger (By The Grace Of God, Roar, This Moment), learn from one's mistakes and faults (It Takes Two, Love Me) and invest in life as a better person for oneself and for others, wholeheartedly (Unconditionally, Spiritual, Double Rainbow). Katy Perry, keep 'em coming. We're interested. Your fans are here to stay.
Favorites from the album: Ghost, Love Me, By The Grace of God, Double Rainbow, It Takes Two, Roar… Expand
Oct 22, 2013well, everything she said gone wrong....she said this one would be darkest but i didn't really see anything differente about her music..it's always the same and this just gets me bored
Oct 22, 2013PRISM is an incredible album. At first listen doesn't sounds like the usual Katy Perry. Roar is the only one song which could be in Teenage Dream. Prism is not a 100% album, but is easy to see that Katy grew up musically. She has a long way ahead and Prism shows us that Katy is in the right way. The best songs from Prism is "Ghost", "Spiritual" and "By The Grace of God", but these songs doesn't works on the radio. The songs for the radio are "Legendary Lovers", "It Takes Two", "Dark Horse" (which should be the 3rd single) and "Walking on Air". My Rate is 10 because Katy gave her best in this album and she did very well.… Expand
Oct 22, 2013Katy has never promised that her new album is going to be a "dark album". Haters please shut your mouth and go read that interview. This is an amazing album. Unlike Teenage Dreams, songs in the album are not very catchy at the first time, but the more you listen, the more you love. For example, Ghost, Unconditionally, Love Me.
Oct 22, 2013Just the same generic song, made for the charts
= Teenage Dream and One of the Boys. #1 hits but
no evolution, no memorable song, no art
, no quality, fake emotions
Oct 22, 2013This is a very good sequel to Teenage Dream. Katy experiments on new genres on this album and I truly admire the diversity that she offers on her new opus. Bravo Katy and I'm excited for your future work!
Oct 22, 2013I don't care if Prism is the sequel of the Katy of Teenage Dream but grow up; etc I really like this album, I have to say that the 40% of the álbum is completely amazing, Other 30% is good and the other 30% I think is the same of always, it's kind of boring. Some songs are so good, but others are boring and it is the same, I would prefer that she could change a little bit with her songs, but it's ok. The best tracks are Unconditionaly, This Is How We Do; Legendary Lovers is a stronger one, and some others. Tracks like This Moment, Love Me, Ghost. and others are very boring because they're the same sound of the whole album. I think she could experiment with more sounds.… Expand
Nov 11, 2013All i have to say is: Worst album of the year she need to grow up
stop with this teenage crap it's sounds like she's trying to be robyn
all the record sounds the same.
Oct 26, 2013I don't like it! The only good songs (there are 16 songs) are "Roar", "Dark Horse", "Legendary Lovers", "Birthday", "Walking On Air", & "This Is How We Do". The others are trash.
Katy, I'm sorry, but your album sucks!
Oct 22, 2013Sounds like Katy finally found her sound. This record is more sober than her previous one and the music is also more serious. She ranges from dance beats to sweet ballads. Hold on tight, haters, Katy is back, better than ever and ready for more #1's.
Oct 22, 2013Prism has the charts and the commerce in mind and that's about it. Although that's never necessarily been a cons for any anticipated pop album, it's disappointing in the charming and vocally gifted Katy Perry's case. In a year where pop musicians have been pushing the envelope with chart-topping singles such as Lorde's minimal "Royals" and even Robin Thicke's retro-esque "Blurred Lines", Prism sinks into the cracks of a groundbreaking list of more intriguing pop albums and comes off as nothing more than mediocre. The Asian-influenced "Legendary Lovers" and the unarguably catchy pop ballad "Unconditionally" are sure to top the pop charts and certainly contribute to Perry's status as one of current mainstream music's leading ladies, but the rest of the album ends up sounding too 'wishy-washy', overwhelmingly similar, and forgettable. Perry's identity crisis is on complete display and despite giving it her all, she shows no vulnerability nor charisma she displays in her public persona. "Roar" may earn Perry a Grammy nomination or two, but this album will be about as forgettable as her debut Christian entry back in 2002. For Katycats (Perry's nicknamed fans), the album should be a smash-hit. For anyone expecting a Lady Gaga-esque growth in terms of musical content, expect disappointment.… Expand
Oct 22, 2013that album shows a maturement of katy perry!! Loved it, i mean, it is the album of the year. My favorite are: Legendary Lovers, Dark Horse, International Smile, Walking On Air, This Is How We Do, Birthday and Unconditionally!!!
Oct 23, 2013overall, this isn't her best album. it's a very tiring record, it basically sounds like one mediocre song, and for on of the main pioneers of pop this just doesn't do. there are a few standout tracks though: dark horse, birthday and walking on air are the main highlights of a soulless dreading listen.
Oct 22, 2013The sixteen-track set shows a more mature side of Perry, alongside a consistent and well done production. The problem with it, is that, ultimately, its lyrics are banal and cliched. The singer deserves respect for coming up with Prism, a record that's plenty of positivism and love. Standouts include "Legendary Lovers", "Spiritual" and "Choose Your Battles".
Oct 22, 2013Even though the album is not very emotional as it was supposed to be, Katy Perry already said her goodbyes to her bubblegum imagine as she proves that Prism is no 'Teenage Dream 2.0' and shows that her songwriting has been matured since the Teenage Dream era.
Highlight tracks: Legendary Lovers, Walking on Air, Unconditionally, Dark Horse, This is How We Do and By the Grace of God.
Potential singles after the album's release: Birthday, Dark Horse and This is How We Do.
(Note that I am a Katycat by the way)… Expand
Oct 23, 2013PRISM is one of the best albums of the year and Katy Perry has really outdone herself this time. I have been a fan of hers for a long time and this album definitely does not disappoint...its really lives up to its expectations. Its very different from her previous albums and i am really impressed. Katy Perry sounds great...better than ever...PRISM will definitely be a roaring success. I am addicted to each and every track and is very difficult to pick my favorites but i have to say that i love Legendary Lovers, Birthday and This Moment apart from the 2 singles and 2 promo singles!… Expand
Oct 22, 2013PRISM is Ms. Perry's most cohesive and mature album to date. It features glittering, catchy pop songs (all done in typical Perry style) which are slight improvements to similar songs from Teenage Dream. It also features growth and vulnerability which really makes PRISM what it is. Songs like "Ghost," "Love Me," "This Moment" "Double Rainbow" and "By the Grace of God" may be seen as throwaway pop ballads, but they indicate that while Perry likes to have fun (indicated by "This How We Do" and "Birthday"), she is in fact an adult. No doubt, despite some chances taken on "Legendary Lovers" and the ballads, PRISM is a typical top 40 album. But it is a top 40 album in its most ideal sense. Perry is showing the others how to do it. Her humor and her emotions come through, remarkably keeping us entertained without any fillers. Each song stands on its own, but also contributes to the overall album. Perry is still feeding into the mainstream, but is doing so now with more confidence and more of a sense of herself. Well done!… Expand
Oct 22, 2013In fact, PRISM could be much better. It isn´t bad but it isn´t good too. It´s just one more album with forgettable songs. PRISM was made for the charts not for the music!
Sep 3, 2014Really boring. The only good thing I found on this album is Walking on Air.
Perry is far from be a true artist. We all know that her voice sucks, and when she tries to hold a note her music becomes unbearable.
Her lyrics are pretty basic, it seems I'm reading a text for self-improvement. I don't need to hear from Perry that "I have the eye of the tiger"... or that "I am a champion". I do not think anyone needs to hear it from Perry.… Expand
Nov 10, 2013Teenage Dream Prism
I was expecting more from Katy Perry in this album. Roar was a mediocre pop song. (The only reason Roar is on my iPod is because it was free from Pepsi.) The rest of the songs are just plain and boring. Dark Horse is the best song on the album with Unconditionally in 2nd and Roar in 3rd. The rest are just bad. Dark Horse is the only song I bought on iTunes though. I hope future singles/albums from Katy are better or she's loosing a fan that she's had from the beginning.… Expand
Oct 22, 2013When we talked about Katy Perry we imagine the "Californa Gurl" who lives her Teenage Dream, but now Katy is just a girl trying to find her own new style in music. PRISM is not her best album and she knows she can do better things.
Oct 23, 2013PRISM is one of the best albums of the year, It's really made for someone who's fan of pop music, Katy's best work since One Of The Boys. Legendary Lovers, Ghost and This Moment have incredible sonority, Dark Horse is darkest and sexiest song of the album, Birthday and Walking on Air calls 80s and 90s, respectively. This Is How We Do and International Smile are so Fun and Dancing, By The Grace of God and Spiritual are really about something from inside you, It Takes Two and Unconditionally are both great songs about love, Choose Your Battles and Love Me are really special too, so great album, great singer, love it!… Expand
Nov 12, 2013Katy Perry is nothing but a stupid woman desperate to top the charts with songs who goes according to what she thinks is gaining prominence among the public. In her new "album", "Prism", Katia tries to join the fever indie/alternative which made success with artists like Adele, Fun., Macklemore, Gotye, Lorde, Lana Del Rey, but Katy's ability to make decent songs is so weak that she didn't ever try to change the production team, hear different sounds or perform a deep dive in the world who she says she wants to be part of. This album is not horrible at all, but there's absolutely nothing that Katy said it was and is unfortunate for Sia having to write songs for a singer so irrelevant in the music scenario.… Expand
Oct 29, 2013Katy always worked, without ashamed to show it's a Pop Star, 'Teenage Dream' is quite exciting, when you want to hear a good Pop, who does not think about him? On his new album, 'Prism', Perry seems to have the need to prove that we can present something different, when all we want is more Katy Perry, of course, that renew every job is always good, the error in 'Prism' is that it does not work.
Oct 27, 2013Certainly no Teenage Dream...
Let's just get one thing straight Teenage Dream was quite something of an album. It actually told this relatable story that, though at it's core had all the obvious makings of a successful pop album, was enjoyable for many audiences.
Though Prism, Perry's latest outing, packs some interesting material, it does not live up to it's predecessor in any way.
From a sound standpoint, this is somewhat of an odd one. There are songs on here that are instant reminders of how the last album sounded, and how this one is nothing compared to it. But there are sounds within tracks here which feel so forced in order to keep up with the dynamic shift that the modern pop charts have undergone in the last twelve months. Sounds that sound like they were pulled right out of Daft Punks amazing Random Access Memories, and for some reason, vocals that could have been pulled straight off a Ke$ha album (God knows why though).
It's not like this album is bad, I'm sure it will find a broad audience to listeners of ones local pop stations and other venues, it just lacks the charm that Teenage Dream had, and carries more of a subdued, generic feel to it.… Expand
Nov 7, 2013I like just ROAR its very good and catchy but other songs OMG Katy and Prism is soooooo floppy and BASICK as B**ch. Katy is like butterfly without wings And Katy can not sing live Its ridiculous
Nov 7, 2013The album is like Teenage Dream left over, nothing new or exciting only the same usual BMP and bland lyrics over old tracks. When you listen to Prism you would feel like the album was made for Disney movie for kids.
The album is just made-for-radio and charts I would be sad if I was Katy Perry hardcore fan because it seems that Katy is pleasing top 40 more than her fans who are supposedly the ones this album is for.… Expand
Nov 7, 2013the same as always, Katy does not change, afraid! the same as always, Katy does not change, afraid! the same as always, Katy does not change, afraid!!!
Nov 8, 2013When I heard this album, there was nothing new from Katy Perry! The album is a mess! At least, Teenage Dream had a cooler theme....Same kind of vocals throughout the album! The album contained "OK" tracks! The worst album we got this year! Listening to the album, I have come to the conclusion that Katy Perry is definitely not an album artist! She's just a singles artist who only releases singles which go and top the charts! I would also like to state that the album is filler-packed! I WARN YOU NOT TO BUT THIS ALBUM!… Expand
Nov 11, 2013Had high hopes for this album but was actually very disappointed! It's very similar to the Katy of all other albums, and i think including some different sounds or even a slightly different theme would be useful to freshen things up and keep people interested! It's about time she stopped making music just to gain single chart success and make an album of good quality!
Nov 11, 2013The production on this album is quite wonderful, but Katy's vocal deliverance is, yet again, absolutely painful and over processed. It's as if Kidz Pop re-recorded Madonna's, "Ray of Light," but replaced the lyrics with nursery rhymes and clichés instead of the original content.
Nov 11, 2013Katy Perry 's new album "PRISM" is her worst album ever Only "Roar" is good the others songs are so bad When I buy "PRISM" i was so happy to listen her new album After the end of the album i was so confused because "PRISM" is her worst album ever
Nov 11, 2013I'm sorry but Katy's vocals aren't that good. Lyrics are pretty good but i hope she wrote them herself. Roar is the only song i like from Prism. Other 15 songs are... I hope she can do it better on her next album.
Nov 11, 2013I love that Katy decided to go against lately trends and instead of dance album she decided to go to completely different direction. It sound really fresh. but I think It require to actually listen to it, instead of just playing it in the background.
Let me just add that only Legendary Lovers sounds better, more original than anything new form lady gaga. This is how you should make a progress with your art as an artist.
And Walking on Air is such an amazing track!
Good job Katy!… Expand
Nov 11, 2013Just mainstream bubblegum pop-music. I thought it would be 'darker'? But it failed, I shouldn't be suprised though. 'Roar' is just MADE for the #1 spots, very bland and simple lyrics, we've all heard this before. Nothing 'dark', nothing artistic. And why did she burn her blue wig? I still don't understand it.
Nov 12, 2013They all sound the same. Where is her diversity? She is always so safe with her music choices. The expectation didn't live up to the hype. Sure she has an okay singing voice but with all the ballads and slow tempo songs, it's basically the same song interpreted in 15 different ways. BEYOND disappointed.
Nov 12, 2013i don't know why, but listening to this makes me angry1 it''s boring and so many ballads, i was over it after 4 songs! such a let down, this is lame as hell! waited for her to better herself but she just sucks even more now!
Nov 12, 2013I just can say that Prism is one of the most bored albums that I have listened. I just can say that the only song that I like is Legendary Lovers. I can't understand how successful Roar has been. Is a simply and childish song... Mi rate: 1
Sep 18, 2014The most uninspired record I've ever heard. It sounds like it was made in 30 minutes. Everything is calculated to appeal to the younger generation, all the songs are full of clichés and aimed at sales only. Awful. Music at its worst.
Oct 28, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Prism is the album of 2013 and I encourage everyone to get this album ASAP! Katy Perry really showcases her songwriting ability and matches, if not tops, the chart behemoth that was Teenage Dream on her third studio album. Prism gives us a glimpse at every single side of Perry and doesn't hold back. Tracks like 'This Is How We Do', 'International Smile' and 'Walking on Air' echo the playful, euphoric atmosphere that was set on TD, whereas she experiments with different styles and sounds on tracks like 'Dark Horse ft. Juicy J'. 'By The Grace Of God' is definitely the most emotional song on the whole album. It talks about how Perry felt after her divorce and her vocals are top-notch; it's my personal favourite! 'Unconditionally', 'Spiritual', 'This Moment' and 'Birthday' are all very love-focused (all thanks to Mr John Mayer!) however 'Birthday' is slightly more tongue in cheek than the rest. 'It Takes Two', a song specifically on the deluxe album, is a fantastic self-reflective song about taking responsibility in a relationship. Alongside 'By The Grace Of God', 'Ghost' directly talks about Russell Brand and their divorce, and it's a very ethereal sounding track. 'Love Me' is a song about loving yourself how you would want your partner to love you. Perry talks about 'not negotiating with insecurities' and it definitely shows how self-reflective she has been writing Prism.
'Roar' is obviously a pop-masterpiece and one of the highlights of the album! My favourite tracks are International Smile, This Is How We Do, Walking On Air, This Moment, It Takes Two, Unconditionally and By The Grace of God; congratulations Katy Perry on making an absolutely fantastic album!!… Expand
Dec 9, 2013Overall, Katy Perry's ''PRISM'' is an extremely bland album (even boring at points) with little intention other than to be on top of the charts. Key tracks are ''Unconditionally'', ''Dark Horse (feat. Juicy J)'' and ''Legendary Lovers''.
Oct 23, 2013Prism is a very obvious and much stated maturation of Katy Perry's songwriting. The hooks in her choruses are still massive, the album as a whole still fits within the accessibility pop music generally requires but there is also a lot happening below the surface. It's an exciting example of how masterfully pop music can be crafted and creates a much stronger result than a shallow recreation of beats and melodies. There's energy, passion and meticulous care put into the record. I highly recommend giving Prism a listen.… Expand
Nov 9, 2013A generic pop album by a bubblegum generic pop singer. Seriously, people, what's wrong with you? These stupid pop artists will NEVER stop making horrible music if you guys still buying their songs.
Oct 23, 2013When Katy announced 'Back to twerk, all the KatyCats were like ''Ahhhh, ahhhh, ahhh''
It was in March, in July, was announced PRISM like the 3rd album, all we were shouting and emotioning. 12/08 Roar, went on sale, the 19/08 went too ''Dark Horse'' and 30/09 went ''Walking on air'' we all thought that her album would be like a ''Teenage Dream 2.0'', arrived the 18/10 and we all had the opportunity of listen and understand than this album is the complete connection that feelings and inner emotions in each of us,this is the album that have ALL the colors, from a Roar and finalize with a Choose your battles baby!!
PERFECT ALBUM!… Expand
Oct 23, 2013This is a great opus from Ms. Perry. The diversity of sound that ranges from EDM to HipHop to Ballads is genius. Her vocals is notably more mature than her previous records. The anthemic and self-reflective lyrics are relatable. Music is basically made to touch lives and Katy Perry delivered it well to her audience with out confusing the general public. Not a perfect album but it's almost there.
Nov 2, 2013Now, she said this album was gonna be dark. With the exception of tracks such as Dark Horse, it's a quality that is constantly lacked. But for what was released, I guess it's good overall. This sounds a lot more mature than the previous two albums which is undeniable by any listener. Even people who hate Katy Perry.
Nov 8, 2013A album made of fillers and boring songs, one extention of teenage dream and her terrible first album One of the boys. Forgot Dr. Luke & Max Martin Perry
Nov 4, 2013There are standout tracks like Legendary Lovers, Walking on Air and Dark Horse. I feel like the second half of the album is full of fillers. Some songs are not memorable at all.
Nov 5, 2013When Katy said "i think my next CD is so dark" I think OMG i dont know but the final product is really awsome, every song is interesting Teenage dream is funny but this is so spiritual like the song, Unconditional show every type of love, brothers love, dad-son love, homo love, couple love is so beautiful cause the real love is unconditional, Love me and Roar is i need love me first and then i probably ready to love someone else, very powerful Prism. Cheers for Katy… Expand
Nov 6, 2013There isn't a doubt that Katy produces hits But she lacks artistic integrity This album supposedly is about transitioning into a different style for Katy but the result eventually is sonically predictable
Nov 6, 2013A step down from teenage dream and One of the Boys... a few stand out tracks such as legendary lovers, dark horse, roar, unconditionally, international smile, and double rainbow. Besides those tracks it is all filler.
Nov 7, 2013All in all it´s really….ummmm disappointing.
I´m not really bias or anything, I expected a lot more to Katy Perry after the uber successful Teenage dream…but no. Katy said that the album would be darker, which is good a change of pace but after the release of Prism, rather making me think how dark and eerie Katy Perry made this album (except the dark horse part where it was like a darker part of Katy Perry) it made me think of how similar this album to her past works….for example Birthday, it is like aTeenage dream single #3, This is how we do…the continuation
of T.G.I.F, International Smile catchy but it´s like a part of `One of the Boys´. And the ballads, The Grace of God is something between great and good going to her roots I really like it, but unconditionally, the lyrics are
kind of good but the sound of Katy Perry…it could be more climatic if only Mariah Carey or Christina Aguilera had that song, when Katy Perry sang that song I got a feeling that I couldn´t feel the climax of the song near at the end and in the chorus. Walking on Air, I really like it, fit for the dance floor yet very contemporary-ish. If I will be judging the album over all it would be 35 or 40 over 100 because some of the song dragged it down hard, but if I will be judging on the singles with the help of her team I guess it could be successful to younger audiences.… Expand
Nov 9, 2013Its disappointed me! Its not fresh,unique!!! i dont think if this album not make by the name "Katy Perry" will have people buy it.... And this Album is not Katy Perry at all!!! The only reason i can think of y this album can be on top just because its by "Katy Perry"! DISAPPOINTED
Nov 8, 2013This is album is not bad, but it doesn't bring something special and interesting, It's just like what she used to do, Music for teenagers, I'm not a teenager sorry.
It would be more interesting if she tried to work with new producers, and try to bring something new, when I hear the album in full I just feel the previous one
Nov 11, 2013This is a fun album that should do fairly well on the charts (if that's what is important these days..) but I can't help but feel it's a bit of an empty sterile shell. I can't really connect to this.
Nov 11, 2013PRISM is undoubtedly a surprise, I thought that highly anticipated new album Katy Perry would certainly be a Teenage Dream 2.0, and imagine my delight to hear new music from the singer. Of course, we're talking about Katy Perry, and always will be present in the songs that packs in a pool party, and as a Birthday Smile International and Walking On Air But we also find soft chords as Double rainbow, This Moment, Ghost and Love Me with letters that go out of your mind, the new work is exciting queen sweet, delightful and engaging. It is impossible not to realize that the personal turmoil experienced by her in recent years were decisive for the composition of this album. And as her ballad Unconditionally, PRISM Katy puts on a quieter level to continue with his roar. Then as she herself has said LET THE LIGHT IN.… Expand
Nov 13, 2013A very boring Album. No surprises, no style. Katy didn't gave us somethig new to listing. Just more of the same ever. The only track that maybe can save the album is "Dark Horse", even through it isn't enough. Not this time Katy, keep trying to make a nice album... who knows in the next year.
Nov 12, 2013Her newest album, Prism, is a disappointment if one is going to hold on to her words promising a darker tune. It's full of cliches, the tracks sound alike and pales in comparison to her magnum opus which was Teenage Dream (and even that was full a factory made album designed to cater to the gullible masses).
Nov 12, 2013Will Katy Perry ever dismiss herself as the bubblegum pop sell out that she is? Yet another boring, repetitive album. I look forward to the day when we hear something different from Ms. Perry. Right now, she's a perfect marketing machine with no decent output.
Nov 14, 2013As a Katycat I was highly disappointed with Katy's new album. I thought it was going to be her dark era yet she comes out with this "spread the light" nonsense. To top it all off, 'Walking On Air' (aka the best song on the album) was released as a promo single
Nov 14, 2013It is too boring from the start to the end... Not interesting at all. She should leave songwriting to people who know how to do it, and do what she was always doing.
Oct 28, 2013Katy Perry sheds her cotton candy scented look for for her fourth album "PRISM" (caps lock inspired by Lady Gaga). One may think she'd make a completely dark album given her divorce, but PRISM mainly focuses on the new man in her life and only offers a few 'darker' songs. I'd single out "Legendary Lovers" as the highlight of the album donning a subtle Easter inspiration, the song follows our tigress having sex or whatnot in the middle of a jungle. On the other hand, "This Is How We Do" and "International Smile" are god awful fillers. Overall, PRISM sounds fresh, strong and things-will-get-better-in-the-end… Expand
Nov 11, 2013It's an improvement from her previous albums, but i'm not sure about this record. Despite features ready-for-number-one songs, others aren't like this. Listen to the whole album, you can hear the catchy bop "Roar" but at same time you can hear some "adult" ballads. Seems like she still don't know if stay in the beach with the ''California Gurls" or if she can already move on and turn into a complete mature artist. Maybe next time, Katy.… Expand
Oct 27, 2013Teenage dream will continue to be her best album, with that said Prism is not bad but it's lacking a lot of songs fill like fillers.

Oct 22, 2013水果这专跟上专比有明显的转型,但并不是彻底地"黑暗"。"ROAR"发行后很惊讶跟之前的她很不一样,虽然有人觉得不抓耳,不好听,但我觉得很耐听。听到全专后,"Legendary Lovers"、"Birthday"都很抓耳,放在专辑前两首就是想要听的人继续听下去,"Unconditionally"虽然不如前两首抓耳,但秀恩爱歌曲加上歌词版MV很感人,看完歌词版MV我就爱上了这首歌。这专虽然歌曲没有"Teenage Dream"出彩,但首首都很耐听。
Oct 23, 2013Melhor álbum da Katy Perry, mostrou uma grande evolução.
Ja fui correndo comprar o meu nas duas versões, normal e deluxe. amei;
Roar ja e um hino no Brasil, fez bastante sucesso.
As cancões Dark Horse e Walking on Air chegaram ao topo das paradas Brasileiras.
Sem duvida vai fazer bastante sucesso por aqui.
Espero encontrar Katy na sua próxima tour pelo Brasil.
Oct 23, 2013'PRISM', the follow-up to the blockbuster sophomore album 'Teenage Dream' by the international pop star, Katy Perry proves that she's not just another bubblegum pop princess by showing artistic growth. She described in a recent interview that PRISM is an effort that emphasises on self-reflection and she indeed delivered. After the shocking divorce with Russell Brand, Katy steered away from despair and turned all her somber moments into empowering yet heartfelt mid-tempos. One might expect an entirely dark album due to the impact of the failed marriage, but the artist stayed strong and determined to spread her optimism in countering this landslide of emotions.
In the lead single, 'Roar', Katy brushes off the dust of the times when she sat quietly and agreed politely to her ex-husband. The 'Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh' hook highlights the brightly coloured tune. Even when some critics negatively compares it to Sara Bareilles' 'Brave', she fearlessly dances through the fire, smashing her way to be the queen of not only the jungle, but the charts worldwide as well.
'Legendary Lovers' is a refreshing dive into the Eastern musical influences. Its bridge features a tribal instrumental breakdown that climaxes the song and makes you wanna dance along. 'Birthday' is one of the lighthearted tracks in which Katy sexily seduces the listeners to celebrate with her like its their birthday every day. The mischievous innuendo and whispers of 'Happy Birthday!' will undoubtedly be mesmerising.
'Walking On Air', one of the promotional singles off the album, while having an extremely repetitive chorus, is a straight-up 80′s house track that gets you bopping. The second official single, 'Unconditionally', isn't a song that you'll immediately get addicted to. This slow burner sees Katy exclaiming her universally spreading the love that channels in all kinds. Its all rounding appeal owes largely to the lyrics which are applicable not only in relationships, but also between parents and children, siblings and friends.
'Dark Horse' is another experimental track that samples hip-hop elements. It is also the sole contender in the album that involves another artist's vocal, which seems to be rather redundant. 'This Is How We Do' is the lowest point of the album. It recalls 'Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) which sings about partying and having fun. 'International Smile' is a tribute to Katy's friend Mia Moretti in which she compliments her as 'someone who walks out of your dream'.
The second half of the album is where it gets personal. 'Ghost' tells a tale of how Russell sent a text to break up with her and 'vanishes like a vapour'. In the pre-hook of the final chorus, she sings 'So rest in peace/I'll see you on the other side', pronouncing that their love is over and she couldn't care less. It sounds like a fitting song into her debut album 'One Of The Boys'. 'Love Me' follows the footsteps of Roar. Katy leisurely sings about how she steps up her game towards insecurities which always get the best of her, and that she'll be the one who defines who she's gonna be. The cheesy 'This Moment' is where Katy's vocal really shines. She advises her fans to cherish the moment as that's all they have because 'Tomorrow's unspoken/Yesterday is history'. The booming, dramatic ending might potentially be tear-jerking.
The standard version of the album finishes in two ballads. 'Double Rainbow', co-written by Sia (who also penned Titanium and Diamonds), is less interesting yet able to showcase Katy's versatility. 'By The Grace Of God' can remind you of 'The One That Got Away'. Katy expresses her gratitude to her sister for 'keeping her head above the water when the truth is like swallowing sand'. It definitely sounds better as a piano-only ballad. The studio production, however, makes it more radio-friendly.
The remaining tracks in the deluxe version are the reason why it is worth the buy. 'Spiritual', produced by Greg Kurstin (collaborated with P!nk) and Katy's current boyfriend John Mayer, has gospel influences written all over it. 'It Takes Two' is an apologetic power ballad in which Katy sincerely regrets blaming her other half for all the wrongdoings and ending up to realise that she has a part to play too. She then announces that she is tired of fighting in 'Choose Your Battles'.
Best tracks: Unconditionally, Roar, This Moment, It Takes Two.… Expand
Oct 24, 2013'PRISM', the follow-up to Perry's record-breaking 2010 record 'Teenage Dream', shows that Perry has clearly matured since her "California Gurls" and "I Kissed A Girl" days. The first half of 'PRISM' contains eight songs, including the smash-hit "Roar", the Bollywood-influenced "Legendary Lovers", and the trap-inspired "Dark Horse". These eight tracks are simply pop perfection and will be the album's most probable single choices, while the second half of the album, which includes tracks like the haunting "Ghost", the emotional "By the Grace of God", and the soaring "It Takes Two" contains some more mature ballads. Overall, 'PRISM' is a well-produced record that contains several potential number one singles, and Perry showcases her much improved vocal talent and newly-found maturity on many of the album songs. While taking the first half of the record to show off her talent for mastering upbeat Summer songs, and taking the second half to lyrically reveal the more emotional side of her last two years, Perry presents yet another great pop album, that, despite its amount of ballads, doesn't really contain any filler tracks. One could argue that the slightly lackluster "Double Rainbow" and the generally boring "Choose Your Battles" are fillers, but in order to showcase her maturity, it was necessary for Perry to include slower songs that don't contain strong melodies and therefore Perry should be applauded for taking the time to record some songs that aren't meant to go to number 1 on radio.
With refreshingly experimental influences, such as R&B ("Birthday"), trap ("Dark Horse"), deep house ("Walking on Air"), and contemporary Christian music ("By the Grace of God"), Perry forms a fantastic pop record with 'PRISM' that will surely become a mechanism to serve up some great radio hits in the new year. 'PRISM' may not contain as many sugary-sweet Summer pop songs as its predecessor, but considering her improved vocal performances and obvious maturity, that may not be a bad thing.… Expand
Oct 24, 2013I'm actually in love with this album, it sounds different than Teenage Dream and even more mature! It's absolutely fun. "This Is How We Do" and "International Smile" reminds me Teenage Dream a little bit, but the rest of the album has a different "light". Thank God Prism isn't a dark album, I really can't imagine a "dark" Katy Perry, except for "By The Grace Of God", that is a sad and beautiful song. My favorite track on the album is "Spiritual", that makes part of the deluxe edition. Her vocals are so much better at this album, especially "It Takes Two" (another bonus track). I love the fact that is a complete "mix" album, "Double Rainbow" sounds different than "Roar", that sounds different than "Choose Your Battles" that sounds different than "Walking On Air" and "Dark Horse", schizophrenic, like she said! I love it.… Expand
Nov 8, 2013I love how the music in the album is delivered but failed to make an impression as an album. Prism is a good album for charting singles,it's mainstream and radio-friendly to all listener but as a whole album it failed to blend his ideas and concept. She said that the album will "darker" yet she failed to express it though, the songs sounds the same in a lot of factor. Still a good album to listen but not worth buying.… Expand
Nov 10, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Personally, out of 16 songs, I only enjoyed three. Katy is smart. I expected so much for this album. But to my disappointment, this one only contains filler and boring songs. It's just Teenage Dream One of the boys put together with a new title and some catchy songs to cover up gaps. I can sense this would flop.… Expand
Nov 11, 2013album of the year, incredible music, great concept, since the album art to the last song, album of the year, incredible music, great concept, since the album art to the last song
Nov 14, 2013Katy Perry is doing the same thing. There's just a few good songs, but all of them sounds the same. Maybe she needs to try something new. This album sucks.
Nov 16, 2013After patiently waiting and getting my hopes up for a darker side of Katy Perry, I was very disappointed when I finally heard this album. It seems to be that she is trying to make music that will top the charts, rather then focusing on the actual quality of the music. Of course, we find what we always find in Katy Perry's music: catchy melodies and a variety of songs (ballads, dance tracks, glam rock etc.) However, After hearing a re-make of each one of her albums, I can efficiently conclude that it gets very boring. It's about quality, not quantity.
Summary: Catchy, yet utterly boring… Expand
Nov 11, 2013Her Best Album i really liked it more matture and sadness is not a TEENAGE DREAM this is different
Nov 12, 2013this album is BORING as She said that her new album will be "dark and mature", and all I can hear is all Teenage Dream's sound and Roar is the only one can standout in this album
Nov 14, 2013My personal, biggest disappointment this year, so far. I was expecting something huge with this album, she used to say the album would be something more mature and "Dark" so I was expecting complex lyrics with great production but instead we got basic lyrics and basic production. She plays "Safe" with her music, I don't see taking any risks in this album (maybe only a couple of tracks) Some songs sound like a rejected part from "Teenage Dream". It has some good tracks, but maybe it's too long and only those few songs barely make you wake up.… Expand
Nov 14, 2013Not a step up from Teenage Dream at all most of the songs sound like its generic left overs.The second half of the album is better than the first.Katy has all these creative producers and this is all they could come up with? There are some good tracks Spiritual, It Takes Two, Legendary Lovers and Ghost. One of the Boys still remains Katy's best and most mature albums to date.
Nov 14, 2013This album is really boring and completely forgettable, I'm very dissapointed because Teenage Dreams was a good album and now she is trying to repeat each song, Birthday California Gurls, Unconditionally Wide Awake And Roar is a Brave ripoff.
Nov 15, 2013This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Katy ainda tem muito o que aprender, esse álbum está muito fraco. Acho que ela deve fazer umas aulas de canto também... Isso pode ajudá-la. Não vi nada de inovador e legal nesse álbum. Será que foi difícil escrever esses "rugidos" chatos de se ouvir? Aff...… Expand
Nov 15, 2013She really is bland. The most successful song "Rawr" could easily be confused for a Disney song super cheesy and annoying. If this album wins her any Grammys, they've lost all credibility to me.
Nov 16, 2013All songs sound like fillers. Not really much that stands out. Not even the lead single Roar was impressing. Many songs are good like Legendary Lovers and Unconditionally but they all sound the same. It isnt really diverse. It does have more lyrical meaning than Teenage Dream so props to that. I think many were disappointed by this album since we were expecting more.
Nov 18, 2013The best album from Katy Perry. She's finally "can see herself" and did it. So now we can hear the reflection of these lights that was inside her, and now it's outside for us!
Mar 22, 2014While being her career best, PRISM is only a tad bit more mature than her previous albums, and ends up sounding less inspired, mostly due to the overwhelming amount of useless ballads. The album drags on superfluously, and is hardly memorable at all. Obviously this album (and all of its songs) will wipe out the Billboard Hot 100 and Billboard 200, as this album seems to be perfectly cut out for that sole objective.
Well played, Perry.
Especially after (barely putting up with) listening to it again, PRISM sounds dated, boring, and just flat-out awful.
Best Songs- Walking On Air, Legendary Lovers, Ghost
Worst- Dark Horse, Roar, Birthday, ALL OF THE BALLADS… Expand
Aug 28, 2014One of the worst albums my ears has had the displeasure of hearing. This album is horrific, bland, uninspired, cliche as **** & is step back from the other albums (though to be fair her earlier work sucks too). Don't buy this pile of feces.
Oct 22, 2013This album is quite remarkable, really. If you were to hear both Teenage Dream and Prism, back to back, you would be totally confused and ask if the latter were really Katy Perry. Prism is a record bursting with maturity, darkness and funk. It's beautiful. Her vocals have improved greatly as you may have heard with "Walking on Air" and the sounds and fresh, although depressing at certain times, but the dark themes are the messages that she is trying to diffuse this time around. The first half of the album is literally a time-machine back to the 80s disco/ 90s era coupled with a few modern twists that take the music to the next level. The second half is very sincere and darkly beautiful (and also more piano ballad oriented). The song "Love Me" is my favorite off of the album, it's quite a treat. Also, as with any album, it has its flaws, for example the album can do without the song "International Smile". You know why? Because I've heard artists name different cities all around the world and I get it, you're connected to the world. Apart from that, Prism represents truly a metamorphosis for Miss Katy Perry.… Expand
Oct 26, 2013PRISM is generally a good album; What keeps it away from perfection is the multitude of flat songs, from which I have to mention "Ghost", "Love Me", "Spiritual" and "Choose Your Battles".
Nevertheless, there is a bunch of amazing songs on it, namely tracks 1-8, tracks 11-13 and track no. 15; The album provides infectious beats, dance-floor smashes and also sentimental ballads;
The highlights of PRISM are "Roar", "Unconditionally", "Dark Horse", "This Moment", "Legendary Lovers" and "By the Grace of God".… Expand
Nov 30, 2013Brilliantly executed and the perfect follow up to pop-perfection Teenage Dream. Katy shows growth in her writing and vocal ability as well as songwriting. Katy is no longer a guilty pleasure for me, but her songs are just as fun as many from her first two albums, while still retaining a degree of maturity. Very impressed.
Dec 15, 2013Katy Perry is one of the most basic artists out there. This album proves it again. Corny music and lyrics. Very repetitive as she can only do what she can with her voice (and I´m not even reviewing her real singing voice without the auto-tune). Only really good tracks are Legendary Lovers (still corny) and Dark Horse. The rest is just bad. The usual from this type of artists. Where are the real big talented names in mainstream music? Like it used to be in the 80s and 90s? Sad state music industry is in.… Expand
Dec 6, 2013Everything that is missing from [Lady Gaga's Artpop] is here, but everything that is good about it is spectacularly absent from Prism.
Nov 22, 2013Prism feels transitional, the work of an artist clever enough to be restless, yet unable to split from a winning formula. [Dec 2013, p.110]
Nov 14, 2013It doesn't require the patience or emotional/intellectual involvement that albums I typically listen to require. The cool thing, though, is that it does have quite a bit of redeeming value.

Small estate, $30,000, at most. mother lived in MI, I live in PA. At present I am only reimbursing myself for tolls and gas for the 1300 mile round trip, have made 4 trips to date since April 2012. Estate is complicated by the fact that my disabled sister lived with her and must be resettled. Disabled sister was supported by my Mother and her survivors SS from my deceased Father. Sister has no personal assets to live of otherwise since Mother's death. Are the reimbursements noted income to me for tax purposes? What can I also charge, meals, etc. that is not regarded as income?
Michigan law may differ from Pennsylvania Law.
In PA, the Court shall allow such compensation to the personal representative as shall in the circumstances be reasonable and just ... See 20 Pa.C.S. 3537. The test is what the services actually were worth. In order to determine the value of the services rendered, the courts look to the responsibility incurred and the service and labor performed. Compensation shall be fair and just based upon the extent and character of the labor and resonsibilities involved.
Though even Courts in PA differ, the local court in my county is inclined to award 3% of the gross estate to the personal representative on a "normal estate". This fee may be increased upon the services actually renderred.
Mr Frederick offers sound advice and his comments are generally consistent with PA law. However, under the Johnson's Estate case if memory serves me correctly you are allowed up to a 7% commission on the first $100,000 of assets. This will be taxable income to you and will be subject to social security taxes to boot. The reimbursements are not taxable income to you, but food is generally not deductible for PA inheritance tax purposes.
Hope this helps.

I agree with the other responders. Expenses must be reasonable and must be explainable if asked. I would say you are fine with the tolls and gas, but I wouldn't risk calling meals an expense because you would eat regardless. You woudln't necessairly travel 4 x to Michigan over 1300 miles since April if you were not doing the Estate. Generally, if it passes the sniff test, you are okay..if not, it's not worth it to put things that are questionable...if you aren't sure, then you are better not putting it.
There is no percentage or figure that is required in Michigan. You are entitled to "reasonable compensation." Ideally, you have kept a time log of the time you have spent working on the estate. You are entitled to reimbursement for actual expenses, but not for things like meals that you would normally require, otherwise. Anything that you take as compensation is taxable income to you. Anything received as your inheritance is tax free.

Dominique Easley and the Risk of Drafting Injury-Prone Players
A few weeks ago, 17 NFL teams sent at least one man down to Gainesville to do their diligence on maybe the most intriguing player in this year's draft. That more than half the league would hit central Florida for a one-man pro day speaks to the wide-ranging possibilities for Dominique Easley. On tape, it's hard to find much wrong with the former Florida defensive tackle, but the problem with Easley isn't what he did on the field. It's how much time he spent off it.
Easley's workout was the first time he's been able to perform for scouts after tearing his ACL in practice last September. The injury came two years after Easley tore his other ACL, back in 2011. Purely as a talent, he'd belong with Aaron Donald and Timmy Jernigan in conversations about the first defensive tackles to be drafted. Now, he's considered a probable a second-round pick who's just the latest example of the risk that comes with chasing value in injury-prone players.
The joy that comes from watching Easley clips is endless. I really think there might be something about defensive players in Florida uniforms that makes those guys look infinitely cooler than they would for any other team in college football, and Easley fits that bill. He also wore no. 2 in college, which is a reminder that number restrictions are one of the worst byproducts of the league hating fun. Oh, and Easley's actual game doesn't hurt either.
There are plays when it looks like he's teleporting into the backfield. One of the gripes from scouts is that sometimes, he's moving too fast, actually running past whoever's toting the ball. I'm not sure I consider that an actual problem. Easley is also notably strong for someone a bit undersize. More than once in that clip, he just marches a guard back into the quarterback until both of them fall down. The nerdy stuff is there, too. He bends naturally back toward the quarterback as a pass-rusher, and his hands are powerful and sudden. The point is, he's got a lot working for him.
What teams have to weigh is whether all that top-15 talent is worth the chance Easley will live in the training room. Players tear ACLs and come back stronger all the time. That said, it happening once can be an isolated incident, but two starts to look like a trend. The encouraging part for Easley and whoever decides to draft him is that they already know he can come back from injury without any trouble. He was a force in his full season between ACL tears, and last season was looking like it would be his best through the four games he got to play.
It's a familiar topic come draft time, and it came up with more than one player a year ago. A lot of analysts considered Tank Carradine a first-round talent, but he slipped to the second because teams worried about how ACL surgery would affect him in his rookie year. Easley's situation isn't that dire, but Carradine is a good example of how talent and injury concerns are weighed. The more encouraging story for Easley believers might be Keenan Allen, who fell down draft boards because of a knee injury despite having the track record of a first-round talent. We all know how that worked out. Allen went in the third round and was probably the best offensive rookie in football. If Easley can stay healthy, he has a chance to be the same sort of player as a rookie. It's that "if" that teams have to worry about.

Striking up a conversation with a charming guy gets Kaori Aikawa´s panties wet, so she can´t wait to get out of them! He can´t wait to get this MILF out of her clothes so he can get inside of her as well, as they 69 before he bends her over and plows her from behind. She´s absolutely loving being ravaged by his hard cock inside her tight pussy.

If a girl has you over her house and you´re spending the night drinking, chances are you´re going to get some booty. That´s exactly what Kaori Aikawa is giving up to her date after a couple of strong beverages. He´s got that drunk boner that won´t quit all night long, and she´s all about bending over and taking his inches deep inside her twat.

Grabbing a handful of her tits is just the start of a fuck-filled night for Kaori Aikawa and her friend. He makes his way down between her legs and licks her pussy to get her turned on, and the sex toys bring her close to cumming. He´s close to cumming when she sucks him off, but it´s a good thing he held out so he can fuck her tight snatch all night.

They have a quick opportunity to mess around at night, and Kaori Aikawa is going to make the most of it. She gets naked while her pussy is being rubbed and fingered by her date, and then her face is in his lap, licking his dick up and down while they´re 69ing each other. As quick as they started messing around, they need to stop and get dressed again.

Brian May, Elton John and Others Lead All-Star 'God Only Knows' Cover
The BBC has gathered more than two dozen artists for its new BBC Music campaign to record an all-star cover of the Beach Boys' classic 'God Only Knows.'
The BBC has gathered more than two dozen artists for its new BBC Music campaign to record an all-star cover of the Beach Boys' classic 'God Only Knows.'
A day after saying he was giving up music, Elton John has said that he was continuing with his career.
'Breaking Hearts' continued Elton John's brief early '80s comeback.
Elton John's 'Caribou' album is a step down from some of his '70s classics, but still has its charms.
Elton John's debut album was released in the U.K. in June 1969.
The rock legend wrote an editorial about the problems that still exist in fighting the AIDS epidemic.
We tend to think of Elton John as a piano-playing rock star, but he's also a busy film producer -- and for his next Hollywood project, he's reaching toward Broadway for inspiration.
Oh, to be Elton John in the early seventies!
Sex, money, cocaine, fame, cocaine, success, sex, adulation, sex, touring, cocaine, hobnobbing, sexy cocaine, cocaine-addled sex...quite the lifestyle.
Elton John didn't shy away from criticizing Russia's newly enacted anti-gay law, becoming the first major Western pop star to speak out on the measure during a Friday performance in Moscow.
We might not hear much rock in the Top 40 these days, but the genre can still pay pretty well if you're lucky enough to have the right audience. Just ask Paul McCartney, Elton John and Bon Jovi, all of whom cracked Forbes' most recent list of the highest-paid musicians on the planet.
As the casting drags on for the Freddie Mercury biopic, a feature film about another '70s gay British superstar just landed its lead. Tom Hardy, who played Bane in 'The Dark Knight Rises,' will portray Elton John in the movie 'Rocketman.'
It almost seems too easy to call 'Goodbye Yellow Brick Road' Elton John's masterpiece, but it's hard to argue against it. Released on Oct. 5, 1973, 'Goodbye Yellow Brick Road' was the second studio album he put out in 1973, and his seventh in five years. Oh, and it was a double album.

Mercedes-Benz SLK Coupe renders show great potential for Porsche Cayman rival
A Cayman rival? Really? Is there any substitute for a Porsche? I suppose they could have competitive price points, but the Cayman is a mid-engine dream machine that dances on the head of a pin. This looks more like a competitor to BMW's old Z3 based M Coupe.

2015 Audi TT & TT S Roadster
I've always liked the TT's styling, but at this price point, why not go all the way to a Boxster? I guess because a Boxster S is even more tempting, and a few options really do sweeten the deal, and POOF! $75K. There's always CPO though.

PSN Tuesday: Puppeteer on PS3, Killzone: Mercenary on Vita
Pre-orders for Call of Duty: Ghosts are live today, including the Season Pass for $50 and the Digital Hardened Bundle, which includes the Season Pass and an extra map, for $120.
Those are the games you can buy today, but deciding whether you should is another issue altogether. We found Killzone: Mercenary to be a gorgeous handheld shooter that holds up to its console counterparts, and Puppeteer is a near-perfect mix of whimsy, joy and platforming – and you can take those reviews to the bank. Where you can take out money to buy whichever game you want, obviously.

A novel technique for NACE coupled with simultaneous electrochemiluminescence and electrochemical detection for fast analysis of tertiary amines.
ABSTRACT A simultaneous electrochemiluminescence (ECL) and electrochemical (EC) detection scheme for NACE was presented for fast analysis of tertiary amines. Both ECL and EC signals were generated at the same Pt electrode. Triethylamine (TEA), tripropylamine (TPrA), chlorpromazine, promethazine, and dioxopromethazine (DPZ) were selected to validate NACE-ECL/EC dual detection strategy. The linear ranges for TEA and TPrA were 0.01-500 and 0.01-10 microM with the detection limits of 8.0 and 5.0 nM (S/N=3), respectively. The RSDs (n=6) of the migration time and the ECL intensity for 1 microM TEA and 0.5 microM TPrA were 0.1 and 2.8%, and 0.2 and 1.8% with theoretical plate numbers of 180,000 and 700,000 per meter, respectively. These two analytes could be separated within 92 s and the Pt electrode did not need reactivation during the experiments. Chlorpromazine, promethazine, and DPZ could be well separated by NACE. The proposed method was also demonstrated for fast determination of DPZ in human urine with simple sample preparation. The results indicated that NACE-ECL/EC had the advantages of simple and fast analysis with more information, wide linear range, high sensitivity, and compatibility with real urine sample.
Article: Some important combinations of detection techniques for electrophoresis in capillaries and on chips with emphasis on electrochemical principles.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Analyses of very complex samples involving capillary and chip electrophoresis often require dual (multiple) detection to attain sufficient selectivity of determination. The present work reviews and critically evaluates selected combinations of electrochemical detection techniques among themselves and with absorption spectrometric, fluorescence and luminescence techniques. Amperometry, contact and contactless conductometry, UV photometry and fluorescence measurements are paid special attention. Some information is also given on combinations of spectrometric techniques with mass spectrometry. The properties of the detection systems are critically discussed, examples are illustrated in figures and some details on the characteristics of dual detectors and their applications are tabulated.Electrophoresis 03/2011; 32(8):795-810. · 3.26 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is chemiluminescence triggered by electrochemical techniques. More than 150 ECL assays with remarkably high sensitivity and extremely wide dynamic range are currently available, and accounts for hundreds of millions of dollars in sales per year. The recent development of ECL is particularly rapid. After a brief introduction to ECL, this critical review presents the active and/or emerging areas of ECL research as well as new applications and phenomena of ECL, such as light-emitting electrochemical cell, wireless electrochemical microarray using ECL as photonic reporter, high throughput analysis, aptasensors, immunoassays and DNA analysis, ECL of nanoclusters and carbon nanomaterials, ECL imaging techniques, scanning ECL microscopy, colorimetric ECL sensor, surface plasmon-coupled ECL, electrostatic chemiluminescence, soliton-like ECL waves, ECL investigation of molecular interaction, and single molecule detection. Finally, some perspectives on this rapidly developing field are discussed (322 references).Chemical Society Reviews 08/2010; 39(8):3275-304. · 24.89 Impact Factor

The parameters for CE, electrochemiluminescence detection and the effect of ionic liquid were investigated systematically. The three analytes were well separated and detected within 8 min. The limits of detection (S/N=3) of tilmicosin, erythromycin ethylsuccinate and clindamycin are 3.4x10(-9), 2.3x10(-8) and 1.3x10(-8) mol/L, respectively. The precisions (RSD%) of the peak area and the migration time are from 0.8 to 1.5% and from 0.2 to 0.5% within a day and from 1.8 to 2.7% and from 0.6 to 0.8% in 3 days, respectively. The limits of quantitation (S/N=10) of tilmicosin, erythromycin ethylsuccinate and clindamycin are 3.2x10(-8), 2.9x10(-7) and 9.1x10(-8) mol/L in human urines and 5.5x10(-8), 3.2x10(-7) and 2.1x10(-7) mol/L in milk samples, respectively. The recoveries of three analytes at different concentration levels in urine, milk and drugs are between 90.0 and 104.7%. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of three analytes in human urine, milk and drugs.Journal of Separation Science 03/2010; 33(9):1305-11. · 2.59 Impact Factor

By: Cindy Bristow
Having a pitcher with different pitches is one thing but understanding how to call them, which pitches to use and when to use them is completely different. Learn to avoid the biggest mistakes coaches make when calling pitches.
No matter who calls pitches, you or your catcher, doing so is a tough job. It involves thoroughly knowing as much as you can about each one of your pitchers, all of their hitters and the umpire. While we'll soon be releasing a pitch calling eClinic that will go into detail about all the things you should know in order to call the right pitches, right now I want to focus on the most common pitch-calling mistakes.
I'm aware that some teams have their catcher's call pitches, but for some reason the biggest mistakes I see made seem to occur when coaches are calling the pitches. The next time you're calling pitches try to avoid the following:
Calling pitches is a challenge that requires a lot of knowledge, study and adjustment. The main goal of everyone calling pitches should be to put your pitcher in a position of dominance over the hitter and keep her there. To help make that possible do your best to avoid these 5 common pitch calling mistakes!
