Is the Premier League better than La Liga?Back to story
Everyone is saying Chelsea defended for 90mins against Barca..Chelsea were the underdogs,one man short and you expected them to attack the ball no..To my surprise the best team was 2 goals to the good but couldn't win it and chelsea came bake to level showing the quality between these leagues....over the two legs it was CHELSEA 3 BaRCA 2..Not forgetting that they played a number of games but the Spaniards always struggle....Man u will definitely settle the debate
Posted 10:44 13th February 2013
Regarding United as a team that struggles to control games and is becoming more and more of a counter-attacking team, is spot on with the recent Everton game an example. If Real dont make any defensive mistakes and keep position then I think they will be fine. Man Utd struggle with these qualities in a team.

Great column again just wanted to flag up gary jacobs suggesting romelu lukaku is an English homegrown striker he is Belgian and was playing for anderlecht up until two years ago.

I bet most of the people saying that the EPL is better than La Liga have only seen a few games because some of the arguements are rubbish. My friend is spanish so I now know loads about spanish football, there are tough places to go in spain. Cold night in stoke? How about a blisteringly hot afternoon in Mallorca. Anyone can beat anyone, granted Real and Barca are miles above most of the teams, but they are considered the best in the world for a reason.
Posted 17:56 12th February 2013
Good article agree with everything you've wrote but not sure Manchester United are a counter attacking team apart from maybe in some of the big matches.
Posted 16:14 12th February 2013
The premier league is the better overall league. Why you ask? Because it is fair to the lesser teams, giving them the chance to compete on even terms with the big teams; the television rights and advertising money for the prem league is distributed evenly throughout all the 20 teams. There is a fundamental problem in spain whereby barca and real negotiate separate pay deals giving them a lion's share of money and the smaller teams lose out. Thus, they are not as competitive in the transfer market and cannot realistically challenge the top teams. It hurts la liga's competitiveness. In prem league any team can beat any other team, in spain how often do you see the bottom teams get a result against the top. It can happen, but no where near as often. Real have a good team not because they have a world class coaching and training setup, but because they can afford to spend �80 million on ronaldo. Even man city would struggle to pay that.... Yes, barca have the best academy in the world atm, but they spend big too, while the smaller teams can't afford to. Take away Barca and Real and the spanish league starts to look pretty average. Take away man utd and city and the prem league is still very competitive, thats the difference.
Posted 14:52 12th February 2013
Guillem there is not even a lose competition between the two leagues in my opinion, for any football who watches Spanish football KNOWS that La Ligue is absolute miles better than the EPL. Van persie is probably the only player in the EPL who would get a game with either Brcelona or Real Madrid, just look at how poor Modric has been this season compared to how much he out classed EPL teams last season. When Man citys or Chelseas chairmen splash out some of their billions on the best footballer of all times Lionel Messi, maybe then the EPL can be counted as the best league in Europe. And finally, the Bundesliga is better than either leaue this season
Posted 13:50 12th February 2013
The standard of La Liga is far higher than the EPL. Yes Chelsea (who finished sixth by the way) beat barca but we also saw them get hammered by Atletico. Also we witnessed Man United be taught a footballing lesson by a mid-table team in Athletic Bilbao. The likes of Malaga and Rayo punching above their weight also make the league very entertaining.
Posted 12:09 12th February 2013
The premier league is more competitive but that doesnt necessarily mean that it is the better league
Posted 10:52 12th February 2013
Jack calm....just remember what happened to Chelsea when they played falcao in the super cup in August. I think it's a clash of styles rather than one league being better than another. The problem is English team will try to change their style for European games...we play their style but can't compete cos it is unnatural.
Posted 10:40 12th February 2013
How can Man Utd be a counter attacking team when almost all sides defend on the edge of their own box at Old Trafford? Since when is playing at home first an advantage in the Champions League? This is why the winners of the groups play away first.
Posted 10:34 12th February 2013
In relation to the first comment, Bilbao beat Manchester United convincingly last season and they were 6th in La Liga at the time. These sort of stats prove nothing.
Posted 07:48 12th February 2013
I personally feel that Barcelona are over-rated. Messi is good, but is he as clinical as quality homegrown english strikers such as Jermaine Defoe or Romelu Lukaku? I'm not so sure. I also think that Xavi is perhaps the most over-rated player in the game today, and would personally take Jordan Henderson's blend of youth, obvious tactical know how and technical ability over the spaniards aging, and tiresome, passing game.
Posted 05:08 12th February 2013
I feel your views are slightly biased Guillem which is fair enough, however you have to look at this properly. You say its funny that the people who said EPL is better than La Liga have gone quiet, I thinks it funny that you chose this season to take this argument on because this season epl teams have been off form, come next season you'll see chelsea city spurs n united in all last 16. You say barca's lead is the same as man uniteds, however this is very rare in the EPL for a team to be 10points clear in feb, this happens mostly every season in the la liga. you have to see that this season the english teams arent playing very well, everyone can see city arent playing no where near to what they were last season, chelsea is like a soap opera, too much drama YET they won the champions league last season against an excellent bayern side and knocked barca out with ten men, being down on aggregate and at the camp nou. city game against real at bernabeu, city almost beat madrid, played very well just unlucky at the end. united only counter attacking and struggle to control games? i think thats a bit harsh considering we have our best ever points tally for this point in the season sitting 1st in the league. the way i see it, EPL has 6 maybe 7 teams capable of playing the champions league: united, city, chelsea, arsenal, tottenham, liverpool and maybe everton. spain has 3 maybe 4 real, barca, athletico and maybe valencia. take united n city out of EPL u still have an interesting league, take barca n madrid out and its a nothing league. How many times has an english team been in the final in the last 8 - 10 years vs how many spain teams. guess we'll never know which is the better league until barca and madrid go to the Britannia stadium, play stoke on a cold monday night in winter. cheers
Posted 05:02 12th February 2013
People who think the EPL is stronger are delusional and ignorant. Lets look at thinks the other way around, what if the FIFA XI was all premiership players, what if Chelsea would of beat atletico 4-1 in the european super cup, what if man u would have embarrassed barcelona in 2 champions league finals, what if there were 4 premiership teams in this years champions league last 16 and spain only had 2, what if real madrid got knocked out of the champions league at the group stages with a group containing benfica, basel and atelu gallati, what if it was an all english europa league final, what if england won the euros, world cup then the euros back to back to back, what if a spanish team brought an english striker for 2 million an he destroyed la liga, what if the spanish champions went out of the champions league at the group stage for 2 years in a row, what if everton played real madrid off the park home and away in the europa league. If all of this happened then you can say the EPL is the best.
Posted 01:44 12th February 2013
As much as I love watching the EPL I still believe that La liga is the better than the EPL. The argument that two teams dominate the league shouldn't undermined the amount of quality and ability within la Liga , they have more home grown players in Spain than in England. Where will the EPL be if not for the amount of money spent on players abroad especially in likes of Spain,Germany ..... Yes the EPL is open and this makes it more entertaining but this should not discredit other leagues especially the German,French ... Leagues. Moreover lets not forget that these other european teams are the one's dominating the european competition such as the UEFA Champions League and the Europa League and you only have to take a look at what happen to Man City Champions of the EPL in both these competition ,even Man U and Chelsea the holders in the group stages season to raise the Question is the EPL better than LA Liga and other leagues such as the German, holland... leagues?

Hi Guillem, Maybe you remember we met in Barcelona Airport last Wednesday I am a Manchester United Fan and we discussed briefly our chances against Madrid. I am eagerley looking forward to the tie you said we dont have a chance I beg to differ and think we can play well in madrid if we keep to our attack and disclipine in defence. Making sure Madrids fullbacks are kept working hard with Nani and Valencia on either flank. Lets see nice meeting you last week.
Posted 18:46 11th February 2013
Guillem, I acknowledge your opinion but in terms of which league is better, I had this debate with a friend recently. The way I see it, the EPL is the best league in the world by far. I am going to consider it in two time periods: overall and at the present. Overall (past and present), you have to say the EPL is the best (counting when it used to be called the first division also) followed by Serie A. At present, EPL is the best and followed by the La Liga. What is important is how difficult it is to win a title in the specific league, the quality of players in the league and how the teams play. At present and recent times, the La Liga has been contested by real madrid and barcelona, who sure are two of the best teams in the world. But, thats about it in the la liga. Then you consider the EPL (and you look at last year) and you think that spain would love to see what happened last year or what happened when Thomas scored that goal at Anfield. La Liga is just not that tough to win for barca/real. Its like a contest between them: who can get the most wins! People should accept it instead of trying to say "oh spain play beautiful football" or "the la liga is so technically brilliant". It is irrelevant. And this brings me nicely onto my next point. In spain, everyone looks to play the same way. The refs always stop games when there is a slight touch (a reason why I have low or zero respect for many leagues out there). In EPL, there is greater variety. In spain, is there occasions such as here: imagine a wet and wintery night away at stoke inside the Bittannia stadium. This epitomises why the EPL is better: football is about physicality just as much as technical ability. Messi on a wet and wintery night at the Britannia? Won't stand a chance. Ask Ronaldo where he found it tougher, La liga or EPL? You will have half your answer. After all, his stats don't lie.... (just realised: shakira and pique - haha)
Posted 17:36 11th February 2013
To be fair, the Premier League is tougher than La Liga, Spanish League doesn't have tough places like Stoke, Newcastle, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, probably the whole Premier League teams to go too, the only tough places in Spain to go to are Valencia, Baca, two Madrid sides Bottom line of all La Liga will always be in the shadow of the Premier League Just because Spain win internationally, doesn't mean they have the best league, most of the players that play in Spain's side come from Barca or Madrid

Police in Medford Township are asking residents to keep a close eye on their bank accounts after a skimming device was installed on a MAC machine.
Police say skimming is the use of an electronic device that can record a user's bank account information and the corresponding PIN. The device is usually undetectable by ATM uses.
According to police, TD Bank employees said they were working on identifying and notifying potential account holders whose information was compromised.
Police ask that anyone who has come across unauthorized transactions on their bank accounts file reports with both the bank and local police.

Austin >Food & Dining > Woodland
1716 S Congress Ave, Austin, TX | Directions 7870430.246445 -97.751059
Tue-Fri 5pm-11pm
Sat-Sun 10am-3pm, 5pm-11pm
Neighborhoods: South River City, Greater South River City
great brunch / breakfast spot in a cute, forest themed restaurant. Even the waiters wear lumberjack shirts. Get the salmon eggs benedict or the "morning wood" breakfast platter.
Southern soul food inside a hobbit house: The Woodland serves up buttery, from-scratch shrimp n' grits and chicken pot pies in a thoughtfully-decorated space, like a little house co-habited by a Zen doshi and Bilbo Baggins.
Not only yummy food, but great ambiance as well! Imagine sitting in a restaurant forest while munching on squash ravioli or shrimp & grits!
Great for modern American food. Steaks never miss. Shrimp and grits standout. Good sides. Worth a trip for peanut butter pie! Awesome decor.
Substandard Ownership – This place has lost it's appeal. The last two times I went to have dinner (Wed. 4pm) and (Sat. 5pm) they were out of multiple things on the menu. The waitress and waiter both times admitted that it happens all the time. I complained to the manager the first time and he gave my friend a gift card to come back and also took 20% off the bill that night. The next time I ask for the owners email address and just got the run around. Later, I went on the website only to find the event managers email address. I contacted him and he said he was not able to give me this information. I ask him if anyone at the Woodland's really cares what their customers think or should I just blog on the internet? Surprisingly he told me to blog!
What is going on with this place? I predict that if this continues they will be out of business with in 6months.
Substandard BLT – My partner and I order in at least five nights a week. We generally patronize Threadgill's, Magnolia, Kerbey, etc. on "comfort food night."
On occasion, we like to splurge on something better. Last night, we decided to get a couple of sandwiches from The Woodland.
(We have had their burgers and a few of their entrees in the past and have been pleased at times.)
When we phoned, we were asked to hold. Understandable for a Friday night, and I'm glad local businesses do well. But after five minutes, we were still on hold.
Still...not a big deal. I just went and ordered in person.
My biggest problem this time was with the BLT. At first it looked great. Big sandwich; the bread was good. But for ten dollars, I would expect more than four super-thin slices of bacon.
This paltry amount did not even cover the surface area of the sandwich. Not. Even. Close.
I would not even be writing this review if this weren't the latest of several disappointing experiences. We have seen a steady decline of both service and food quality at The Woodland.
The staff sometimes seems either startled by or displeased with the fact that there are people in their restaurant. I happen to think that a "cool detachment" from one's clientele is anything but.
We are not in Paris and this is not haute cuisine. A little warmth goes a long way toward making up for an underwhelming experience.
I'm afraid it's a trend that does not bode well for what has at times been -- and could be -- a good restaurant.
how the heck? – how is this place open? is Austin's tourism really keeping this place open? or is it the over priced EVERYTHING..is it buying produce and ingredients from Wal-Mart and selling them as if they are organic? Im a cook at a place with a very similar menu but its ALL ORGANIC and high quality and 1/4 of the price, so its not like they have to charge that much.....this place was so horrible after eating there my girlfriend and i broke up......
American Food – The Woodland does not offer a large variety of choices on the menu. My assumption was that with the limited menu, everything would be exceptional. The kitchen would focus on only a few things and excel at each dish.
Breakfast: You can order two eggs any style and have 4 items with the eggs. The eggs do not have any seasoning when they are served. Yes, the Woodlands is known for down home food, but I thought they would at least reach for some seasoning. I mean you are paying $11 for eggs and 4 items. The bacon and sausage are above average.
If you are looking for plain, the Woodland should be your destination.
Service was not bad. We were served another party's food first, then had to ask for service at each stage (to order, for check,). The service was responsive after we asked.
My recommendation is for the kitchen to take some sage advice. Take more thyme in the development of the recipes. Maybe even consider turning over a new leaf (of almost any kind) and add the leaf to a dish to accentuate flavor.
Terrible slow service. – We had lunch at Wooland today. Can't say I'll be going back anytime soon. We were sat facing the open part of the kitchen and the cooks were full of attitude and bad comments to wait staff like 'ask for something off menu again and I'll take you outside and sort you out' Not enjoyable background to our lunch.
Our food took an hour to arrive and when it did, it wasn't really worth the wait. The turkey sandwich had clearly been sitting there for a while and the Mac & Cheese was really just penne pasta in a cheese sauce. Our waitress didn't appear to know what she was doing and seemed in a daze and our water wasn't replenished the entire time we were there. We had to chase up our meals twice - both times being assured that the food would arrive in under 5 minutes...10 minutes later, we were STILL waiting. When it finally arrived, the waitress simply exclaimed that they were a little rushed today, no apology nothing. Funny as I could spot at least five/six empty tables and a lot of seemingly unhappy, hungry faces..
I really wanted to like this place but the long wait, bad service and pretty average food means that I'll take my money elsewhere.
Teated like Trash.. – Went in after a movie Sat, May 16 for pie. With a $13.53 tab, they brought back $6. To add insult, they threw the chocolate cream pie in a go-box UPSIDE DOWN.
Thats What Happens When You Hire a Bunch of Hipsters – The quality of service and food have slipped drastically.... while the Quality of vintage wear and tattoos have markedly improved.
I'm the last person to judge people on their appearance... but Woodland has simply gone past the point of no return in the hipster department. The staff must feel as though they are occupying Beauty Bar or manning the door at Emo's... and serving up American Apparel with a side of fixed gear instead of food.
Most of the people there are really nice, and yes.. there's some really outstanding, beautiful tattoos. But come on already.... people want good food and good service. That's really all that matters.
Good bar, noisy – The place has a really nice vibe, it does have a full bar and the side with the bar on it is extremely loud, which is where we got seated. When we left we saw there was seating on the other side of the restaurant which was probably much quieter. The menu isn't too extensive, it's your classic American with a modern twist kind of food. They served warm rolls with butter before out food came. I ordered the Woodland salad with chicken added (for $6). It was small for a dinner salad. It had cooked beets, ricotta salata, mixed greens, sunflower sprouts and seeds. All over it was nothing special. The chicken was just plain grilled with no flavor of it's own. I wouldn't go back there for the food, maybe for the bar and atmosphere. Amy had the reuben, it was better than the one from 34th Street Cafe and even gave the one from New World Deli a run for its money but I didn't like the bread, had a licorice flavor to it which I think is due to... fennel seed? Not 100% sure but if it weren't for the bread it would've been amazing. Amy loved it. It came with a side of really delicious potato salad. She also ordered a drink call the Eudora. It tasted very strongly of bourbon which I don't like so just the smell of it made me cringe. The cocktail menu is very different with flavors like cucumber, elderflower and grapefruit. But like I said they have a full bar so I'm sure they can make any drink upon request.
Disappointing experience – We had dinner here with friends yesterday evening. Two of us ordered the chicken with mashers and spinach. The spinach was so salty we could not eat it. The potatoes were overcooked and dry. The chicken was bland, but juicy and OK to eat. Another had the duck. Very small portion of meat, certainly not worth the price. We ordered pie for desert. The coconut cream pie tasted entirely like whipped cream with a little coconut mixed in. The wait person apologized because they had RUN OUT OF DECAF COFFEE by 8:30 PM. We were shocked at how disorganized the place seemed to be. Two people recomended the pork chop, so one of us ordered it. Said it was nothing special. Very disappointing overall. We would not return to give this place a second chance.

Iraq forced to play qualifiers away
Iraq will be forced to play their remaining qualifiers for the 2014 World Cup and 2012 Olympics at a neutral venue after FIFA deemed the country unsafe.
Football's governing body confirmed the action in a letter to the Iraq Football Association, according to the official Asian Football Confederation website.
The official report on the World Cup qualifier against Jordan, which took place on September 2 at the Francouse Al Hariri Stadium in Arbil, underlined that conditions foreseen under Art. 20 Par. 1 of the FIFA regulations 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil were not respected, while the Iraq FA's security plan did not satisfy the structural, technical, organisational and operational requirement outlined in FIFA Safety Regulations.
The letter also cited general security concerns, meaning Iraq will now have to play all remaining qualifiers at a neutral venue until further notice. They have until October 1 to nominate a ground for World Cup games and October 3 for the Olympic matches, which also cannot be the stadium of any of their opponents.
Iraq currently lie third in Group A of the third qualifying round for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil after they followed the 2-0 defeat to Jordan with a 2-0 victory in Singapore. Their next game is against China on October 11 in Shenzhen.
The Olympic team, meanwhile, lost their opening Group B game to Uzbekistan 2-0 in Tashkent and are next due to face Australia on November 23 in a designated home tie.

While getting lost typically is something people avoid, Reno resident Stacey Perez is turning it into a game with her new business, X-marks the Spot Adventure Quests.
The idea for this business began early last year when Perez, a fan of the TV show "The Amazing Race," participated in an urban adventure in Southern California. She came home and told her son, Mason, about it and he asked his mom to create a similar game for his 10th birthday in July.
"I really like to do scavenger hunts," Mason said. "They're my favorite thing so I thought, 'Wow, a scavenger hunt with all my friends would be great.' "
They worked together to assemble puzzles and clues that would guide teams of participants around downtown Reno, making the game applicable to a wide range of ages. They completed the game in June and Mason, along with his father Eric, tested the course, which kind of blew it as a surprise for his birthday.
"We went swimming instead," Perez said about Mason's birthday party this year.
But now Mason gets to help his mother create more of these races as she works to expand her adventure quests into a small business. It took them about three months to complete the race for downtown Sparks, mapping the course, thinking of games and getting businesses to participate. Last weekend, Perez tested the Sparks course on three teams.
The race started at about 11 a.m., though times might vary depending on how many quests are scheduled for a given day. The wind was blowing and it was chilly out, demonstrating why the quests are best enjoyed on warm summer days. Perez started the adventure with a brief rundown of the rules before she handed out the first clues and said, "Ready, set, go!" The Sparks quest begins in front of the Century movie theater and then sends teams in all directions with "clues that aren't obvious but aren't super hard," Perez said.
"There are different levels so kids can solve one puzzle while the adults solve another puzzle," she said.
Whether in downtown Reno or Sparks, the adventure quest is a walking tour of the area that will educate as well as entertain. The Reno course incorporates a historic drinking fountain and the Sparks course teaches participants about the history of the city's fire department and explores seldom-noticed landmarks. There are fill-in-the-blank puzzles and some mind-benders involving signs at a bus station.
Depending on how serious a team is about finishing the course as quickly as possible, the quest can be a way for mom and dad to tire out the kids on a Saturday afternoon, a romantic date or a slow stagger for adventurers who add their own stops at bars along the course.
"It's a really great activity for us to do as a family," said Robin Nyberg, a friend of Perez's who has run both the Reno and Sparks adventures with her children, ages 12 and 9.
Mason Perez, whose birthday request started the whole adventure, said he liked his mom's Reno quest a little better and that the Sparks one was a bit on the difficult side. While he gets to be the guinea pig for the various quests, Mason credits his mom with being the creative force behind the undertaking.
"She thought of everything," he said.
Perez is running a special right now for $5 off, which means adults cost $20 and children age 8 to 12 cost $15. Quests are available on Saturdays and Sundays. To book a quest or for more information, visit www.x-marksthespot.net.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Sue804 Dinner plates mark easily Loved the appearance of this set but... the dinner plates having white centers show utensil marks easily. I've used the pfaltzgraff cleaner as recommended but they never fully come clean! Very disappointing! Don't use except for family use and I'd purchased many pieces $$$$ November 4, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by LAmom Gorgeous This is a really beautiful set that is nice enough for special occasions, but practical enough for everyday use. The blue is just a little brighter than it appears in this picture. The classic mug shape is easy to hold and doesn't tip. My only complaint is that the bowls don't nest very well, so they take up a lot of space in the cabinet. August 16, 2012

I will never go anywhere else for piercings. I am very particular when it comes to body jewelry since most metals will cause adverse reactions with my skin. I went to them my first time to get a VCH. If you have any questions about their professionalism than use me as an example. THEY TURNED ME AWAY. I had taken Ibuprofen before hand in and in an act of safety they rescheduled my appointment. I was a little upset because I knew that was a stupid mistake on my part, but they took the initiative and did the right thing for me. When I went back it only took about 45 minutes to fill out paperwork, pay, pick out the jewelery, prep, and get the whole thing done with. It only hurt for a minute and then I was fine to walk right out of the shop. They gave me very thorough care instructions and asked me to come back after it had healed so they could check on it, and switch out the barbell for a shorter one once the swelling had subsided. It healed perfectly. I've been back other times to get new jewelery. The shop owner is even nice enough to brighten up the color on my old pieces for no charge. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Piercing Experience to EVERYONE, and I always am! (And as for Latisha S, no piercing should ever take only 15 minutes to do if you want it done right. If you want something done that quick then go down to the mall and your local Claire's will do it for you.)
HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE...I went in for a VCH (hood piercing) something that should have only taken 15 mins at max. I got there at 1pm and did not leave till a little after 5pm. With several attempts in three places, according to the person that pierce me the complications was of no fault of me nor him it finally got it complete with a ring other then I pick out. I was never ever able to see my bottom ball, after awhile it concern me especially after the barbell started to push up and I was able to see more than half of the barbell. So I google and saw that my VCH look nothing like anyones in the picture and that it was possibly embedded. I went and got three other opinions which all said that it was in fact embedded. The reason why was because it was FAR TOO DEEP, STRAIGHT BARBELL OPPOSSED TO CURVERED BARBELL, BARBELL WAS WAY TOO SHORT, AND THE PIERCING ITSELF WAS FAR TOO HIGH FOR A VCH AND NOT IN THE RIGHT SPOT FOR A CHRISTINA EITHER. I would NOT recommend this place for any genital piercings at ALL. The VCH is suppose to be the easiest out of all the genital piercings and the guy manage to mess it up. I was told that it would have to be surgically removed...very very unhappy with the service there.
Definitely Worth the Money – This review is way overdue (like 8 months overdue), so here it goes. I got my lip pierced in the town my college is in (very far away from Atlanta). Unfortunately it just wouldn't heal. I went back to the piercer and he replaced the flat back with a ring. It still didn't heal, so I had to take it out and let it close up. A few months later I decided I wanted to get my lip pierced again. So, I did some research to try to find the best piercing place in Atlanta. I didn't want to have same experience as the time before. Piercing Experience was the most knowledgeable and professional place I found. So I made an appointment, this time to get snake bites. I got there and was kindly greeted by Christina who answered all of my questions and then some. The place was super clean, and I was informed of the sterilizing, cleaning, piercing, and after care process. Very informative. I'm not going to lie, the piercings hurt (back to back), but I mean, it's a piercing, but everything was perfectly lined up and it looked great. It was pricey, including the jewelry, but it was really worth it. I think the problem I had with my previous piercing was that of the jewelry. I have not had any problem with the jewelry from Piercing Experience. It's high quality stuff. What was great was that I was able to come back for a 30 day check up. I came back a few more time, once to get another check up (my lip took a long time to get unswollen, so it was sore for a while), and to get shorter bars, and then to get circular barbells. All in all, it was a very positive experience, and I highly recommend getting your piercing done at Piercing Experience. And I am still rockin' the snake bites proudly =]:
Cleaner and Friendlier than your local hospital – I have had been to multiple piercing shops over the past few years and have never found a more professional and clean facility than Piercing Experience. PE's almost natural approach to piercing and aftercare seems out of the norm from what most people find from other shops but advice is given through educated personnel and they can even show you the research to back it up. Their choice of metals that are surgical implant grade or better is also impressive. I had a tongue piercing performed yesterday, a procedure that is known for it's swelling. Today I have very little swelling, and little to no pain. The procedure was done without forceful clamping and pulling, and as crazy as it sounds my tongue was given a bit of a massage to align the muscle fibers before it was pierced. I highly highly highly recommend PE.
I'm happy to hear that your piercing was easier than expected and that the healing process moved along smoothly. I think for some the thought of piercings without clamps seems scarier and less controlled, but you saw that it really makes it better! It's great to have feedback so we can continue to make the process even safer and easier.
Absolutely the best – This place is FANTASTIC. I went there to have a VERY SENSITIVE part of my body , and of course i was a little nervous. That nervousness disappeared when I met the people there and saw how professional and sanitary they were. I would never even consider going anywhere else. I actually sent a couple friends over there and they loved it too. If you or anyone you know is looking for a sanitary, professional and caring environment to get pierced in this is it!
It's our duty to be courteous and professional, just like anyone else in a customer service oriented business - hair styling, medical professionals, servers, etc. You should never have to accept less! We really appreciate you sending your friends to us, there really is no higher compliment.
Love, love, love Piercing Experience! – Piercing Experience is the best shop in Atlanta. I've gotten almost all my piercings done there. The staff is informed, professional, and very easy to talk to. They'll answer any question you have, no matter how silly it may seem. Yes, they are expensive, but it's absolutely worth it. My roommate in college paid $20 to get her navel pierced and ended up with a horrible infection. PE is cleaner than a doctor's office. If I've had any problems with piercings, it was due to my own negligence rather than anything they did.
I'm going to see them in a few weeks for my next piercing and I know it'll be another outstanding experience.
We are always happy to answer questions! It's much easier to answer questions that seem silly than to have to help someone down the road when they didn't understand something. I may argue with the expensive part of your review because I feel like we charge as little as we can for the quality of work we offer. Unfortunately this is a business where cutting costs can mean cutting corners and that can definitely cause problems, and there's really no excuse for that. Thanks for helping us continue to make people shiny and happy!
No need to fear if you get pierced here! – My piercing was to celebrate a 50 lb weight loss and being diabetic, I did my research about where to go (diabetics tend not to heal as well or fast as others.) I was first impressed with the shop, when I went in a year ago (only about 1/2 done with my weight loss) and padriac looked at my navel and said...I can pierce you today and will if you want, but it's likely with more weight to lose that your body will change shape and it will have to be re-done. That was honest and right and I really appreciated hearing that. So I waited and went back a month ago.
What a great experience! Brian did my piercing and was knowledgeable, kind and patient with my nervousness. He was great about telling me exactly what was going to happen. It was fast and not painful! The shop is clean and I appreciated the attention to the sterile environment and my health. And even after, my piercing did get irritated, but my phone message was returned within 24 hours and I was given a lot of good advice. They also encouraged me to come back in and have it checked. All in all, a very good experience. And yes, it was more costly than other places, but I'm very willing to pay for good service and attention to detail and my health if someone is going to be sticking a needle in me. Definitely worth every penny!!!
I'm happy to hear that your patience paid off! Navel piercings are affected by weight more than any other piercing. They are also not the easiest piercings to heal, as you said especially with diabetes, so it was certainly brave of you to take it on. We are always here to offer support during the healing process. From our point of view, our responsibility for your piercing doesn't end until it's healed, not just until you walk out the door.
The best place to get pierced in Atlanta, hands down! – My friend and I decided to check out Piercing Experience because I was having possible thoughts of another piercing in my ear, but also because my stretching experience was going sour. Brian was more than helpful, and explained that my friend and I were both using jewelry that could be harming our bodies over time. He changed out the jewelry for my friend (since his were still healing piercings) and offered me a good deal on some glass jewelry. Both of our ears couldn't be happier!
More important than the cleanliness, jewelry selection, and quality of care by the staff is that the staff was incredibly nice. I've been to places in Atlanta where I felt unwelcome for not being pierced over every inch of my body, but that's not the case here. You feel as though you're among friends, and the staff is informed, helpful, and very trustworthy. I'd recommend this shop over any other.
We didn't have any cost issues, but you do get what you pay for. Just like they say not to go to a cheap tattoo parlor, this is the same way. Pay for the quality of care and the professionalism. You won't be sorry!
A great piercing experience! – A friend recommended this place to me and I'm glad I went there. Brian and the staff there are so friendly. I had my belly button pierced by Summer and she was very gentle. I did pass out when I saw the needle and when I was awake she was done. I didn't feel a thing. I like the cleanliness of the facility since there are no mandated standards for sterility in piercing facilities. I've heard of other people going to unknown shops and getting piercings then getting infections and having to remove the jewelry. I did get an infection in my piercing but I think it was my own doing because I was so paranoid about getting water over it so I sealed it with a waterproof bandage and air couldn't get in. My dermatologist gave me some antibiotics to clear it up. Seven years later, I still love my piercing. In fact, I'm taking a friend here to get her belly button pierced shortly.
Best place to get any piercing, EVER. – Two of my friends got staph from Uncle Freddie's Tattoo and Piercings in Buford, Georgia. So, when I decided to get pierced, I wanted to go to the best place Atlanta had to offer. When I went to get my tragus pierced at the Piercing Experience, not only was I treated with the utmost respect, but the owner/piercer Brian was the most genuine, kind, and patient guy ever. He went out of his way to make me feel comfortable and cater to everyone's needs. He was incredibly responsible, and showed us how he sterilized everything and told us everything we were forgetting to ask. Basically I just layed down on a medical bed (this place looks and feels like a doctor's office, and is spotless!) and did a breathing exercise, felt nothing, he put the bar in, and I was done! He even keeps candy in case you feel woozy and need some sugar. Total, the piercing and the bar cost me $70, which is about $15 more than other places, but it was entirely worth it. He also noticed the gauges I had in my ears previously, and told me about how they were bad for my ears and explained the hazard of the material (he is a piercing encyclopedia) and offered to trade them out for me! I'll never go anywhere else but here for a piercing. AND he even offers to do a checkup in 30 days. The most professional, germ-free place to go in Atlanta. I'd recommend it to everyone.

Interactive Journaling® is a method designed specifically for this purpose – to engage each person actively in the thought and behavior processes of change, rather than being a passive recipient.
At each progressive step along the way, clients reflect on and generate their own language about material relevant to important changes, and how it applies in their lives. Whatever the therapeutic modality – residential, outpatient or intensive day treatment – clients do the personal work needed to make important life changes."

World Oceans Day at the National Aquarium
World Oceans Day was this past Friday, and as we mentioned in our last post, Oceana headed up to the National Aquarium in Baltimore to take part in their special celebration of the seas.
Divers enter the aquariums exhibits every day to feed the animals and clean the tanks, but on Friday there was a very special dive. National Aquarium CEO John Racanelli joined Oceana's very first Ocean Hero, John Halas, for excursions into the Atlantic coral reef and Wings on the Water exhibits.
The Atlantic coral reef exhibit was John Halas' first aquarium dive, but far from his first experience with that ecosystem. He earned the Ocean Hero award in 2009 for his more than 30 years of working to protect coral reef systems in Florida. He retired earlier this year, but has been busy traveling to places like Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago to help install environmentally friendly buouy systems.
In Wings on the Water, John Halas got to meet Calypso, the friendly three-flippered sea turtle that lives in the Aquarium. You can check out video from both dives and interviews with John Racanelli and John Halas over at the Baltimore Sun.
Do you know someone who does great things for the oceans like John? Nominations for our 2012 Ocean Heroes Award are open now and we're searching for people of all ages and backgrounds who are working hard to protect the world's oceans. Don't forget to get your nominations in by June 20th!
Many thanks to the National Aquarium for hosting us and doing such great work to protect the world's oceans.

Waste Site Cleanup & Reuse in New England
Forster Mill
The Forster Site, at 516 Depot Street in Wilton, Maine, is a former mill property that was being demolished. Several large buildings covered the majority of the 12.1-acre property. The buildings and a temporary chain-link-fence restricted access, but the fence was damaged at one end so trespassers could easily enter the property.
Some steam pipes covered with asbestos-containing materials were staged at the accessible end of the property. And less a cubic yard of asbestos-containing materials was found.
EPA contractors on Aug. 19, 2011, took ambient air samples at the perimeter fence at the northern and eastern sides of the property near residences. No asbestos was found. Sampling from the parking area indicated pipe wrap with some levels of asbestos contamination that required a cleanup.
EPA met with a representative from the Maine Department of Environmental Protection. EPA also met with the property owner, who agreed to have an employee fix the fence. EPA also asked that the asbestos (or suspected asbestos) outside the building be collected by a certified asbestos contractor by Aug. 27. The property owner coordinated with DEP to hire a contractor to finish cleaning asbestos inside the building.
On Aug. 20, 2011, DEP took over management of the site.

Adam In Depth Patient Reports - imagepageSearch Health Information
The esophagus connects the mouth with the stomach. The epiglottis closes over the trachea when a swallow occurs to prevent the swallowed substance from being inhaled into the lungs. When a person is unable to swallow because of illness or coma, a tube may be inserted either through the mouth or nose, past the epiglottis, through the esophagus to the stomach. Nutrients will pass through the tube directly into the stomach.

It is not that sturdy. After we moved it around a bit it started to become flexible. Maybe I didn't put it together right -- but it wasn't that hard to put together.
SORRY FOR THE LENGTHY REVIEW BUT IF YOU'RE SPENDING THIS MUCH MONEY ON THIS PIECE I WANTED TO PROVIDE A THOROUGH DETAILED REVIEW FOR YOU GUYS. HOPE IT HELPS. Ok let me tell you first off this is a beautiful island & gets A lot of use from rolling dough on the granite to cutting veggies on the butcher block which easily pulls out so you can carry it over to your stove, a convenient trash bin directly under the butcher cutting board, locking wheels, easy rolling wherever you want to take it to make your workstation, lots of storage in the large pullout, shelving on the bottom, storage basket on side of cart, rings to hang laddle/rolling pin/measuring cups. I LOVE this cart not only for it's beauty but how functional it is. I am surprised how much use we get out of it, not to mention our newly remodeled kitchen stays super clean because all mess is made on this cart instead of all over the counters in the entire kitchen so clean up is super easy. Now for the bad....the handle that comes with this cart is super light & cheapy. To cheap for a cart of this caliber in terms of expense & beauty so we put a solid stainless steel longer handle pull. The other thing is it was a FIASCO to try & put this cart together !!!! OMG the directions were not the easiest to follow & there were SO MANY parts & pieces. It came completely dismantled in shipping :(( So be prepared for some time & patience. But once done it's just beautiful. One big thing that we were very frustrated with was that we had to wait what seemed like forever to receive it & once we did I didn't waste anytime to get my husband to put it together to start using it quickly but after opening it it was severely damaged. The side wood panels were cracked & the granite piece was broken into two pieces. We called O & they set up for parts delivery. We waited and waited & waited !!! Got no parts so we called & they said there was a problem with the warehouse that sends the parts so they sent a whole new piece to us. I was ready to give up but glad I didn't because it is a GREAT workstation & gets used at least 2-3x day!!!!!

Stolen boat recovered
Date: October 28, 2009
by: Kurt Schultheis | City Editor
Longboat Key Police Chief Al Hogle said patrol officer Dennis Silverio Jr. and two U.S. Coast Guard officers assisted the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) Saturday, Oct. 24 in retrieving a 30-foot Grady-White boat from the hands of two burglars during a high-speed chase.
Silverio spotted the boat, which was stolen from a resident's dock on Anna Maria Island, near Cannons Marina and assisted a U.S. Customs boat in retrieving the vessel a half-mile offshore after the two men on board jumped ship. A U.S. Customs agent succeeded in shooting out one of the boat's engines to slow down the fast-moving boat. The bullet released a chemical agent that disabled the motor. The burglars could not be located.
Hogle said the department has been working with FDLE for several months in the boat-theft investigation.

Cellar/Tasting Notes The 2011 Pinot Noir Two Brothers, tasted from barrel, is hugely promising. There is a level of purity in the fruit that is simply beautiful.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2009 Finca La Emperatriz Parcela No.1 is a pure, unadulterated Tempranillo from a 5.5-hectare plot of old vines.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2008 Barbaresco Riserva Paje wraps around the palate with layers of dark fruit, spices and menthol. Today, the Paje is one of the more open of the 2008 Riservas, but there is plenty going on in the glass. Sweet floral and spiced notes add lift on the finish. As good as the Paje is, it also..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2008 Barbaresco Riserva Montefico hits the palate with a blast of fruit intermingled with copious acidity and pure structure. Montefico shares a boundary with Ovello, and shows many of the structural elements typically associated with that side, but with more depth in its fruit, probably..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Smoke, incense and tobacco are some of the many nuances that emerge from the 2009 Barolo Vigneto Cannubi. One of the very best 2009s from this historic site, Burlotto's Cannubi impresses for its depth, richness and sheer power. The sensuality typical of Cannubi is given extra dimensions of pure..
