Smartphone sadism continues in this face-off video between the iPhone 5 and the Samsung Galaxy S3 from gadget warranty outfit SquareTrade.
After being dropped, drowned, and pounded with various household objects, the lightweight, metal-backed iPhone 5 seems to hold up much better overall than its Android arch-nemesis, but the demonstration is far from scientific. The Galaxy S3 took a serious face shot to its glass screen in the drop test, whereas the iPhone 5 lucked out and bounced off its side edge.
As you can see for yourself below, the Samsung phone also gets the hard, blunt edge of a beer bottle for its second screen smashing, whereas the iPhone catches the smooth, round side of the brew and survives. So it's tough to say if the iPhone is actually more durable or just luckier.
For what it's worth, I don't think SquareTrade is showing a pro-Apple bias here. In a similar showdown done with the iPhone 4S, the outcome was much more even, although the Galaxy S3 did take a little more of a licking again overall. Hopefully the next such test will be done with an Android phone running Jelly Bean so we can add some Siri vs. Google Now smack-talking to the mix.
Watch the video yourself and let us know what you think in the comments.

Tricking others into giving out passwords or other sensitive information has a long tradition in the attacker community. Traditionally this activity has been performed through the process of social engineering. In the 1990s, with the increasing growth in interconnected systems and the popularity of the Internet, attackers started to automate this process and attack the mass consumer market. The first systematic research to cover such activity was published in 1998 by Gordon and Chess (Sarah Gordon, David M. Chess: Where There's Smoke, There's Mirrors: The Truth about Trojan Horses on the Internet, presented at the Virus Bulletin Conference in Munich, Germany, October 1998). Gordon and Chess were researching malware on AOL, but they were faced with phishing attempts instead of the expected trojan horse attacks. The term phishing ("password harvesting fishing") describes the fraudulent acquisition, through deception, of sensitive personal information such as passwords and credit card details by masquerading as someone trustworthy with a real need for such information. A phishing message described by Gordon and Chess is shown below:
Early phishing attacks were primarily aimed at gaining access to the victim's AOL accounts, or occasionally at obtaining credit card data for fraudulent purposes (e.g. to make illegal purchases with this information). Often the phishing messages contained a simple ruse to trick unskilled computer users and relied heavily upon the victim's innate sense of trust in "automated" system functions or (apparent) figures of authority. As demonstrated in the previous example, this could be a story about a broken hardware device or the failure of a database, and most normal system users would take at face value any reasonably official-looking or highly urgent technical request that appeared to offer them assistance. Users were usually prompted to enter sensitive information quickly to avoid a serious problem, for example via the phrase "[...] and re-state your password. Failure to comply will result in immediate account deletion". To avoid potentially dire consequences the victims often complied immediately, unknowingly providing the social engineer with the credentials they required. Anecdotal evidence suggested that the culprits usually were acting alone or in small, unsophisticated groups. Literature often portrays early phishers as adolescents desiring account data for causing mischief and to make long distance phone calls, usually with little high level organisation or malice.
Today, the preferred strategy chosen by phishers is to bulk email their lures to as many end users as possible whilst masquerading as a trusted brand - usually one with whom the phisher hopes there is a chance that the victim already trusts. A request for urgent action is sent, often ironically to protect the user's confidential data from malicious activities, and this spoof email will contain an obscured link to a remote web-page that masquerades as the public web site of the target brand. The phisher hopes that victims will be tricked into submitting their credentials into a fake, but apparently legitimate looking "official" web interface for the trusted brand. Examples of the organisations being targeted by phishers include many well-known banks, credit card companies or well known Internet traders requiring regular payments (e.g. eBay and PayPal). Numerous examples of phishing emails targeting customers can be found at the Anti-Phishing Working Group web site, which has a archive of phishing emails, many of which illustrate the high degree of accuracy with which phishers can trick innocent users into believing they are accessing a legitimate web interface.
Following this brief introduction to the concepts of phishing, we will now review the actual techniques and tools we have captured during phishing attacks observed in the wild. If you are interested in further background on phishing, we have prepared this page of detailed background information.

The Fourth of July weekend might have brought fireworks, but the holiday box office didn't close with a big bang.
With no new popcorn blockbusters opening, "Transformers: Age of Extinction" easily triumphed.
The fourth entry in Paramount's Michael Bay-directed robot franchise – Mark Wahlberg leads the new film, replacing Shia LaBeouf – took in $53,792,000 for the five-day period, according to studio estimates.
"Transformers" is the first summer flick to hold the No. 1 spot for two consecutive weeks, and it has generated nearly $175 million after just 10 days of release. After this weekend's bounty, the film has logged more than $400 million in international ticket sales.
New Line Cinema's Melissa McCarthy-starrer "Tammy" landed in second after pulling in $32.9 million in its first five days.
"Tammy" put a twist on the buddy road trip film. McCarthy plays the shameless title character who, after an awfully bad day that includes getting sacked at work and finding out her husband is having an affair, decides to hit the road with her boozy grandmother (Susan Sarandon).
The R-rated comedy, which cost $20 million to make and was co-written by McCarthy and her husband, Ben Falcone (he also directed the film), opened to largely negative reviews, but the actress has proven to be a reliable box-office draw since her breakout in 2011's "Bridesmaids."
Last year McCarthy anchored "The Heat," a buddy cop comedy with Sandra Bullock that grossed nearly $160 million in the U.S. and Canada, and "Identity Thief," which hauled in $134 million despite murky reviews.
Although it was highly unlikely that "Tammy" was going to give the hulking robots of "Transformers" much competition, the film's solid opening leads the small slate of new offerings debuting this week.
"We're really happy with 'Tammy.' This was a $20-million production and it was homegrown by Melissa and her husband Ben," said Dan Fellman, the studio's president of domestic distribution. "It's a nice start for us. We're in good shape and there's a lot of summer left."
Landing in No. 3 was another new film. "Deliver Us From Evil," the supernatural crime flick Jerry Bruckheimer produced for Screen Gems, took in $15 million since its Wednesday opening.
Starring Eric Bana, Édgar Ramírez, Joel McHale and Olivia Munn, the film is based on the book "Beware the Night" by retired New York Police Department officer-turned-demonologist Ralph Sarchie and journalist Lisa Collier Cool and cost $30 million to make.
Between the holiday falling on a Friday and the lack of a big event film, opening box office receipts were remarkably thinner than in recent years. In comparison, "Despicable Me 2," which opened during the Fourth of July weekend in 2013, debuted with a whopping $83.5 million.
"It was definitely a lack of content this weekend," Fellman said. "'Transformers' did $36 million [over the weekend]; we did a little over $21 million and it was a big gap between the second and third movie. This weekend just wasn't as strong in terms of variety. But there are years you have great summers and difficult Christmases. And years where summer doesn't work but Christmas does."
In its fourth week, Sony's "22 Jump Street" continues to perform. The hit comedy sequel took in an additional $9.4 million. The Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill buddy cop flick, while down 41% from last weekend, has now outperformed its predecessor, with $158 million in sales.
The family film "How to Train Your Dragon 2," in its fourth week, pulled in $8.75 million over the weekend, bringing its total gross to $140 million.
Despite largely favorable reviews and a drought of family films, Relativity Media's PG-rated "Earth to Echo" took in just $13.5 million since it opened on Wednesday.
Directed by first-timer Dave Green and produced by Andrew Panay, the film was originally greenlighted by Disney before Alan Horn took over as chairman of the studio.
Relativity acquired the film from Disney in 2013 and it cost the studio $13 million.

It has not been a glamorous week for caravanning, with flooding at campsites in Wales leaving us with images of these home on wheels partially submerged in water, and their occupants faced with costly repair bills. However, summer is - allegedly - almost officially upon us, which means the roads will soon be heaving with holiday makers seeking to get away from it all for a few relaxing days.
What better time then for Practical Caravan magazine, in association with The Camping and Caravanning Club and What Car?, to announce the winners of their annual tow car awards? Now in its sixth year, this is said to be Britain's toughest test for tow cars and involves whittling down 34 models to six class winners and then choosing an overall champion.
Each had a class-leading combination of practicality, good towing dynamics (cars were tested for stability, hill starts, acceleration and braking) and excellent buying and owning credentials. So, without further ado, let's look at the winners in each class

To Spanish explorers, the rumors of gold and vast riches could only mean that this section of Central America was the costa rica - the "Rich Coast." Hailed as the Switzerland of the Americas, Costa Rica occupies a unique position, lying between two oceans and two continents. On both coasts, tropical rainforests rise to the mountains of the interior, many of which soar over 13,000 feet above sea level. In the west, a seemingly endless succession of brown-sand beaches forms the nation's Pacific coast. Puntarenas is your gateway to Costa Rica's wonders - and to its capital city of San Jose.
Visit Cruise Personalizer to reserve excursions
San Jose & National Theater
Costa Rica's vibrant capital city is home to the Gold Museum, the spectacular Metropolitan Cathedral, the historic National Museum (the scene of fighting during the 1948 civil war), and the National Theater, considered to be the country's most beautiful building.
River Cruise
Costa Rica's river cruises glide through the tropical mangroves where crocodiles, lizards and waterfowl roam, but the Corobici River is a prime waterway for a laid-back river raft float.
Coffee Plantation
Coffee production has always played a key role in the country's history and is important for the economy. Tour a sprawling plantation to discover how coffee is produced, from bean to cup.
Poás Volcano
The Poás Volcano, Costa Rica's natural wonder, sits at 8,880 feet above sea level. It is one of the few active craters in the Americas, and is famed for its geyser-like eruptions of gas and ash.
Sarchi, a friendly rural village, is famous for its talented local artists who paint and decorate traditional oxcarts in intricate, vivid designs. It is also home to the largest oxcart in the world.
Costa Rica Rainforest
From the misty treetops of the Monteverde Cloud Forest to the brilliantly-colored scarlet macaws who call Carara National Park their home, Costa Rica's lush rainforests are full of intrigue.
Thermal Springs
Set near a hidden canyon where a thermo-mineral river flows, the springs are also famous for their natural mineral hot pools and exuberant vegetation.

There's also a subdungeon that looks more or less like the old Mothers for Safer Dungeons or whatever, with a couple of gold piles and a sign - except if you actually bother to read the sign (which I rarely do, so I have no idea how long this particular subdungeon has been there) it has a somewhat poetic message about heroes and helmets (or something like that). There were also a few walls in one of the corner that I had no means of interacting with, so it's possible there's some goodies to be had.
On the topic of HALPMEH - I would just note that changing it to 4 MP and 4 HP * level would have one very, very major unbalancing effect. A Wizard with Mana Leak and a Crystal Ball would still have an effective 1 MP HALPMEH, only now it heals 33% more HP than before. Add BLUDTOPOWA and he'd get a patently ridiculous 80 HP per tile.

BAGHDAD — A recent spate of killings and intimidation aimed at gay Iraqis and teenagers who dress in brash Western fashions is sending waves of fear through Iraq's secular circles while casting doubt on the government's will to protect some of its most vulnerable citizens.
Many details of what Iraqi newspapers have called the "emo killings" are murky, but the uproar comes at an awkward moment for Iraq. The country has been preparing to showcase itself to the world as host of a high-profile meeting of Arab leaders in late March, the first major diplomatic event here since American forces withdrew in December.
But the news that young men in tight T-shirts and skinny jeans are being beaten to death with cement blocks and dumped in the streets has threatened to overshadow the new palm trees and fresh paint. The violence offers a reminder that the government has been unable to stop threats and attacks against small religious sects, ethnic groups and social pariahs like gay men.
An Interior Ministry security officer said that in the past two weeks, officials had found the bodies of six young men whose skulls had been crushed. Reuters reported the toll to be 14 or more, citing hospital and security officials, while rights groups say that more than 40 young men have been killed, but have provided no evidence for this figure.
Human rights advocates say the threats and violence are aimed at gay men and at teenagers who style themselves in a uniquely Iraqi collage of hipster, punk, emo and goth fashions. The look, shorthanded here as "emo," has flourished on Baghdad's streets as an emblem of greater social freedom as society has begun to bloom after years of warfare. But it has drawn scorn and outrage from some religious conservatives, and is often conflated with being gay.Continue reading the main story
Verifying the reports of the killings has proved nearly impossible. In most cases, no family members or friends have come forward, and Iraqi officials deny that there is any campaign targeting gay men or emo teenagers. They call the stories a media fabrication designed to drum up hysteria and embarrass Iraq.
But it was the Iraqi government that first labeled emo youths a public menace.
On Feb. 13, the Interior Ministry released a statement that condemned the "phenomenon of emo" as Satanic. The rebellious teenage fashions of dark clothes, skull-print T-shirts and nose rings, the statement said, are emblems of the devil.
The ministry said its Social Police would be sent to investigate "the emo" and added that its forces had also received the authority to go into all of Baghdad's schools to find them.
"They have official approval to eliminate them as soon as possible, because the dimensions of the community began to take another course, and is now threatening danger," the statement said.
Emo is short for "emotional hardcore" and its aesthetic sprang from the American punk music scene in the 1980s and has been remixed in Baghdad over the last few years.
Ibrahim al-Abadi, an Interior Ministry spokesman, said the statement had been misinterpreted. He said emo youths were free to dress as they pleased, and said the government would protect them.
But over the past month, threatening letters began appearing in Shiite neighborhoods across Baghdad, residents said.
One of the fliers, scanned and posted online, addresses dozens of gay men by name and nickname. It warns people identified as Japanese Haider, Allawi the Bra, Mohammed the Flower and others: Reform your behavior, stop being gay, or face deadly consequences.
"Your fate will be death if you don't quit doing this," one leaflet warns. "Punishment will be tougher and tougher, you gays. Don't be like the people of Lot."
Another flier circulating around the Zayouna neighborhood appears addressed to emo youths. It tells them to cut their hair, not to wear the clothing of devil worshipers, and not to listen to metal, emo or rap music. And if they refuse, "God's punishment will be come down upon you," the letter says.
The authenticity of the fliers could not be verified.
It is unclear who is behind the intimidation or violence. Advocates have blamed Shiite militias such as the Mahdi Army of the radical cleric Moktada al-Sadr for past anti-gay killings and assaults. On Saturday, Mr. Sadr denied any responsibility for the recent threats or violence, but called the emo teens unnatural and said they should be dealt with through legal means, according to Al Sumaria, an Iraqi news channel.
For at least six years, gays have been bullied and harassed by security forces and beaten and killed by reactionary Islamist militias in Shiite areas of Baghdad.
Ali Hili, a gay Iraqi activist who lives in London, said as many as 750 gay Iraqis have been killed in the past six years, and thousands have emigrated or are living deep in the closet.
"It's a clear war on sexual minorities on Iraq," he said. "They are refusing to admit it."
Fear has rippled across socially liberal niches of Baghdad, from the basement-level clothing shops where teenage boys buy skull pendants and skater gear, to upscale hair salons and theaters. Advocates say some emo youths and gay men have left for northern Iraq, while others have shorn off hairdos or muted outfits that were once badges of identity.
Four gay friends in Baghdad, sitting together for an interview, said the daily barrage of harassment and threats has taken on an especially menacing edge in the last few weeks. Neighbors have told them, "Your turn will come soon." Young men have driven by and shouted "Block! Block! Block!" referring to the current weapon of choice for attacks.
Mustafa, 25, said he was fired last week from a clothing shop because his boss thought his clothing too effete. Hussein, 26, said he left home two weeks ago after his brothers threatened to kill him. Hasan, 32, wears a burgundy ski cap to hide his long hair.
"What do you see about me that is so wrong?" asked Mustafa, who said he was too afraid to allow his full name to be published. "I'm a normal guy. I wish I could die rather than live like this." With little to go on but denials from the government, gay Iraqis and secular teenagers have been trying to understand what is happening. They have circulated copies of the threatening letters, and passed along pictures that seem to give face to at least one killing that matches the pattern.
In one photo, a handsome young man in a white jacket, dark aviator sunglasses and coifed black hair stands as if he were a fashion model. In another, the vacant, bloody face of a man with similar features stares up at the sky. His body lies in the bed of a police truck.
Friends have identified him as Saif Raad Asmar Abboudi, a 20-year-old from one of the poorest areas of the vast Shiite neighborhood of Sadr City. An Iraqi police report obtained by Mr. Hili's advocacy group, Iraqi LGBT, says he was beaten to death with a brick on Feb. 17.
The police have not identified a suspect, the report concludes.
One of Mr. Abboudi's friends, Noor, also 20, described him as a gentle and quiet young man who "was not even very emo." Being emo in Iraq, she said, was simply about style and self-expression. She said she and her family had fled north after Mr. Abboudi's death. She did not know when she would feel safe enough to return.
"Is this what we get," she asked, "because we dress in black?"Continue reading the main story

Blessed William Tirry
May 12
William Tirry (1608-1654) was martyred because he chose loyalty to God and Church over obedience to civil authority.
William Tirry was born in Cork, Ireland in 1608. His uncle was Bishop of the Diocese of Cork-Cloyne.
William entered the Augustinian Order in Cork. He must have been a promising student, as he was sent for studies in Valladolid, Spain and Paris, France. Following completion of his courses in Paris, he spend five years (1636-1641) in Brussels, Belgium.
He returned to Ireland in 1641. A few years later, when hostilities broke out in Ireland, Augustinian community life became impossible. William went to serve for a time on the staff of his uncle, the Bishop. He was later named Secretary of his Augustinian province.
He was chosen in 1649 as Prior (local superior) of the Augustinian house in Skreen. However, Oliver Cromwell's troops would not permit him to live there.
A law enacted January 6, 1653 declared that any Roman Catholic priest in Ireland was guilty of treason. William and other priests were forced into hiding. Three men betrayed William in return for money. He was arrested March 25, 1654, Holy Thursday, as he was preparing to celebrate the Eucharist.
While awaiting trial, William was imprisoned at Clonmel. Here, his spirit of prayer and penance helped to inspire the other priests who were also incarcerated there.
At his trial, William readily proclaimed his loyalty to the government in civil matters. But, in matters of religion, he declared that he was bound to obey only his conscience, his Augustinian superiors, and the Pope. He was found guilty of treason and sentenced to death by hanging.
William was executed May 12, 1654. He was 45. An account told by another friar who had been tried with William gives some details of that day: William, wearing his Augustinian habit, was led to the gallows praying the rosary. He blessed the crowd which had gathered, pardoned his betrayers and affirmed his faith. It was a moving moment for Catholics and Protestants alike.
The body of William was buried on the grounds of the destroyed Augustinian friary at Fethard. His grave was not marked, however, and its exact location is unknown. He, along with 16 other Irish martyrs, was declared Blessed in 1992 by Pope John Paul II.

For that person in your life who does not need any more stuff, try an experiential gift this year.
Ranging from tickets to a show or sporting event to a trip to the spa or a weekend away, experience gifts usually rate high on the happiness scale because they create good memories.

If you are searching for unique gifts for those on your shopping list, the Artisans Holiday Market on Dec. 5 is your one-stop shopping destination.
If you are on-target, a gun could be the No. 1 gift for the outdoor-lover in your life.
A hot spot at the holidays is Van Wyck Sporting Goods, located at 5219 Old Hickory Road in Van Wyck. The store carries a large selection of rifles and handguns as well as the Uncle Henry line of knives.
"A lot of people want to upgrade their guns and scopes, and it makes for a great Christmas gift," said Tommy Foster, who manages the store with his brother, Roger.
Toys from the movies "Star Wars," "Frozen," "Minions" and "Jurassic World" are covering the shelves at local stores and are projected favorites for kids this year.
It's the most wonderful time of year for retailers as holiday spending is expected to reach a new average high of $805.65 per person on food items, decorations, gifts and more, up from $802.45 in 2014, according to a National Retail Federation survey.
Shopping is a big part of the holiday season, when families and friends gather to reconnect and exchange gifts. The benefits of shopping locally go beyond convenience and the chance to reduce your carbon footprint. Shopping locally this holiday season can directly benefit your community and the people who call it home.

It was a day of triumph and celebration as about 300 people – family, friends and members of the Indian Land community – gathered at the nearly completed Lodge, a new amenity center in Sun City Carolina Lakes, to pay a special tribute to the community's World War II veterans.
The Oct. 6 ceremony and dedication of the display to honor all Sun City Carolina Lakes veterans was two years in the making.
This is a story of an airplane, one of three, in my opinion, of the most used aircraft in the U.S. military. The first two are the B-52, called the BUFF, and the DC-3/C-47, the Gooney Bird or "Puff, the Magic Dragon" as it was known during the Vietnam War.
My story is about the C-130 "Hercules" and one mission.
In honor of our veterans today, I am going to share with you a military-style workout so you can get in great shape and get a taste of a soldier's routine.
This will give you a small idea of how hard they work for us. I have been around many veterans in my day, and what I notice about most is no matter whether they are active duty, reserve or retired, they have adopted the habit of still being early birds. Many scientific studies have shown that rising early has lots of health and fitness benefits.
On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918, World War I came to an end and the Armistice with Germany went into effect. From this day forward, Nov, 11 was known as Armistice Day.
Charles M. Blackwelder's family found the small tin box in his Indian Land home after the World War II Marine veteran died last March.
It contained a photo of a Japanese soldier, two books printed in Japanese and a small journal. Each item was stamped "EXAMINED IN THE FIELD – PASSED BY JOINT INTELLIGENCE."
The journal's first seven pages were written in Japanese, but the next 13 were in English with the heading "Dear Diary."
KERSHAW – Some military heroes coach youth ball teams, are church ushers and even bag groceries, with few outside their immediate families ever aware of their actions.
That's especially true of Vietnam-era veterans who just don't talk about their service, while their military records remain relatively unknown.
When it comes to talking about Vietnam, Robert Brasington was like many of his fellow servicemen.
There is a change underway in some hospitals around the country where, increasingly, the arts are used as an important healing tool.
At Children's Hospital Los Angeles, patients receiving art, music or dance therapy have more than tripled since 2010. Nearly 10,000 patients received such treatment in 2014, according to the hospital.
Nicole Albers, a Children's Hospital art therapist, said it's amazing to work with patients and watch their pain disappear over the course of a therapy session.
If I told you the music of John Williams had a profound impact on not only my life, but yours as well, would you agree?
Probably not.
Instead you'd probably ask, "Who's John Williams?"

Remember that primal, two-note score from the movie "Jaws," the one that goes "dunnn dun, dunnn dun, dunnn dun" and is usually followed with a late-night swimmer or inebriated teenager meeting their watery fate?
It was late on a Wednesday evening, about four months ago, when Janice Steele and her 43-year-old special-needs daughter Terri Ledbetter stopped in at Mane Street Hair Designers. Lisa Couch fixed Terri's hair while owner Debbie Crenshaw worked with Janice.
As always, they joked around, laughed and danced. Debbie walked them out to their car. Sometime during the night, Terri, who loved music and was never seen without her Walkman, danced up the proverbial stairway to heaven.

Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD)
Medical Management
Thanks to advances in many areas of medicine, such as cardiology and pulmonology, people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy in the 21st century are living longer than in previous decades, often well into adulthood.
The use of available treatments can help maintain comfort and function and prolong life. Talk with an MDA clinic physician for more information.
People with DMD may have unexpected adverse reactions to certain types of anesthesia. It's important that the surgical team know about the patient's DMD so that complications can be avoided or quickly treated.
Braces, standing frames and wheelchairs
Braces, also called orthoses, support the ankle and foot, or may extend up over the knee. Ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs) are sometimes prescribed for night wear to keep the foot from pointing downward and keep the Achilles tendon stretched while the child is sleeping.
Standing for a few hours each day, even with minimal weight bearing, promotes better circulation, healthier bones and a straight spine. A standing walker or standing frame can assist people with DMD to stand. Some wheelchairs will raise the user into a standing position.
Sooner or later, a wheelchair is needed in DMD, typically by about age 12. Unless there's an injury, such as a broken leg, wheelchair use usually is gradual. Many at first use wheelchairs for long distances, such as at school or the mall, and continue to walk at home.
Although the child and parents may dread the wheelchair as a symbol of disability, most find that when they start to use one, they are actually more mobile, energetic and independent than when trying to walk.
Other mobility and positioning aids can help parents and caregivers. Among the simplest aid is a transfer board for helping the person move in and out of the wheelchair. Mechanical lifts, shower chairs and electronic beds also can be useful.
MDA's national equipment program may be able to help families obtain some needed equipment.

Cardiac care
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that people with DMD have a complete cardiac evaluation by a specialist beginning in early childhood and again at least every other year until age 10. After that, the evaluations should be done every year or at the onset of symptoms of heart weakness, such as fluid retention or shortness of breath.
Female carriers of DMD are at higher-than-average risk of developing cardiomyopathy. The academy suggests that carriers should undergo a complete cardiac evaluation in late adolescence or early adulthood, or sooner if symptoms occur, and that they should be evaluated every five years starting at age 25 to 30.
There's some preliminary evidence that treatment with angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and beta blockers can slow the course of cardiac muscle deterioration in DMD if the medications are started as soon as abnormalities on an echocardiogram (ultrasound imaging of the heart) appear but before symptoms occur.
Also see:
- Doctors Talk Heart to Heart (pediatric cardiologists and other experts at an MDA-sponsored meeting exchanged information and planned studies regarding the heart in DMD and BMD)
- Revising Cardiac Care in Muscular Dystrophies
The impact of DMD can be minimized significantly by keeping the body as flexible, upright and mobile as possible. There are several ways to do this.
As muscle deteriorates, a person with muscular dystrophy often develops fixations of the joints, known ascontractures. If not treated, these will become severe, causing discomfort and restricting mobility and flexibility. Contractures can affect the knees, hips, feet, elbows, wrists and fingers.
However, there are many ways to minimize and postpone contractures. Range-of-motion exercises, performed on a regular schedule, help delay contractures by keeping tendons from shortening prematurely. It's important that a physical therapist show you how to do range-of-motion exercises correctly.
Braces on the lower legs also can help keep the limbs stretched and flexible, delaying the onset of contractures.
When contractures have advanced, surgery may be performed to relieve them. A tendon release procedure, also called heel cord surgery, is often done to treat ankle and other contractures while the child is still walking. Usually the boy will need to wear lower leg braces after this.
No special dietary restrictions or additions are known to help in DMD. Most doctors recommend a diet similar to that for any growing boy but with a few modifications.
A combination of immobility and weak abdominal muscles can lead to severe constipation, so the diet should be high in fluid and fiber, with fresh fruits and vegetables dominant.
For boys who use power wheelchairs, take prednisone or who aren't very active, excessive weight gain can become a problem. For these boys, caloric intake should probably be somewhat restricted to keep weight down. Obesity puts greater stress on already weakened skeletal muscles and the heart. Doctors have found that a low-calorie diet doesn't have any harmful effect on the muscles.
Those on prednisone and those with heart problems may need a sodium-restricted diet.
Also see:
- Nutritional Considerations While on Corticosteroids (includes meal planning guides and suggested food options)
Exercise can help build skeletal muscle, keep the cardiovascular system healthy, and contribute to feeling better. But in muscular dystrophy, too much exercise could damage muscle. Consult with your doctor about how much exercise is best. A person with DMD can exercise moderately but shouldn't go to the point of exhaustion.
Many experts recommend swimming and water exercises (aquatic therapy) as a good way to keep muscles as toned as possible without causing undue stress on them. The buoyancy of the water helps protect against certain kinds of muscle strain and injury.
Before undertaking any exercise program, make sure to have a cardiac evaluation.
Learning disabilities
Children with DMD who are suspected of having a learning disability can be evaluated by a developmental or pediatric neuropsychologist through the school system's special education department or at a medical center with a referral from the MDA clinic.
If a learning disability is diagnosed, educational and psychological interventions can begin right away. The specialist may prescribe exercises and techniques, and the school also can provide special help with learning.

- The Brain in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy: Are learning disabilities part of the picture?
- A Teacher's Guide to Neuromuscular Disease
Medications that lessen the workload on the heart are sometimes prescribed for DMD (See cardiac care, above).
Medications belonging to a group known ascorticosteroids have been found to be effective in slowing the course of DMD. The corticosteroids prednisone and deflazacort are beneficial in the treatment of DMD.
The FDA on Feb. 9, 2017, approved deflazacort (brand name Emflaza) to treat DMD. For more, see FDA Approves Emflaza for Treatment of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
Several high-quality studies of these medications in DMD showed a significant increase in strength, timed muscle function (such as the time it took to climb stairs) and pulmonary function.
Chronic use of corticosteroids is part of the standard of care for DMD, but such treatment can lead to side effects and rapid withdrawal of corticosteroids can result in life-threatening complications. The PJ Nicholoff Protocol guides withdrawal from corticosteroids following longterm treatment.
Physical and occupational therapy
A physical therapy program is usually part of the treatment for DMD. Your MDA clinic physician will refer you to a physical therapist for a thorough evaluation and recommendations. The primary goals of physical therapy are to allow greater motion in the joints and to prevent contractures and scoliosis.
While physical therapy emphasizes mobility and, where possible, strengthening of large muscle groups, occupational therapy focuses on specific activities and functions. Occupational therapy can help with tasks for work, recreation or daily living, such as dressing or using a computer.
Respiratory care
As the muscles that assist in breathing get weaker, the bronchial system must be kept free of secretions, either by using a cough assist device or by manual assisted coughing with the help of a caregiver. A respiratory therapist or pulmonologist can be consulted for the needed information. At some point, assisted ventilation may be needed to help provide sufficient air flow into and out of the lungs.
The first step in using assisted ventilation is usually a noninvasive device, meaning one that doesn't require any surgical procedures. The person receives air under pressure through a mask, nosepiece or mouthpiece. Noninvasive ventilation usually is required only part time, often only during sleep.
If round-the-clock ventilatory support becomes necessary, it's possible to use noninvasive ventilation full time, under the care of a doctor knowledgeable in this practice. Some young men choose to switch to an invasive system, which means that a surgical opening called a tracheostomy is performed, allowing air to be delivered directly into the trachea (windpipe).
For more, see:
- Getting a Tracheostomy: My Story (a physician with mitochondrial myopathy describes undergoing and taking care of her tracheostomy)
- The Great Trach Escape: Is it for You? (portable but powerful equipment, skilled guidance make noninvasive ventilation an option for many)
Spinal curvatures
In young men with DMD, the spine can be gradually pulled into a curved shape. The spine may curve from side to side (scoliosis) or forward in a "hunchback" shape (kyphosis).
Scoliosis usually appears after a boy has started using a wheelchair full time. The "swayback" curvature that's sometimes seen in those who are still walking is called lordosis.
Severe scoliosis can interfere with sitting, sleeping and even breathing, so measures should be taken to try to prevent it.
Exercises to keep the back as straight as possible and advice about sitting and sleeping positions can be obtained from a physical therapist.
Spine-straightening surgery involves inserting metal rods with hooks into the spine.
Surgery for youngsters with DMD is usually performed in adolescence.
Standards of care
Updates to the 2010 Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Care Considerations for Duchenne muscular dystrophy were published in 2018.
- Diagnosis and management of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, part 1: diagnosis, and neuromuscular,
rehabilitation, endocrine, and gastrointestinal and nutritional management; and
- Diagnosis and management of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, part 2: respiratory, cardiac,
bone health, and orthopaedic management.
- Diagnosis and management of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, part 3: primary care,
emergency management, psychosocial care, and transitions of care across the lifespan.
Updates to the 2005 American Academy of Neurology (AAN) guideline on corticosteroid treatment of DMD were issued in 2016.
General recommendations for medical care in DMD were issued in 2010 by the DMD Care Considerations Working Group, under the auspices of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. These include:
- DMD: diagnosis, and pharmacological and psychosocial management; and
- DMD: implementation of multidisciplinary care.
A family friendly version of the guidelines is available courtesy of TREAT-NMD. MDA contributed to the development of the comprehensive guide.
Guidelines for care of people with DMD receiving anesthesia or sedation were released by the American College of Chest Physicians in 2007.
Recommendations for cardiovascular health supervision in BMD and DMD carriers were issued in 2005 by the American Academy of Pediatrics.
Guidelines for respiratory care in DMD were released by the American Thoracic Society in 2004.

Subscribe To Remembering Tony Scott, In His Own Words Updates
I've already subscribed
The Taking of Pelham 1,2,3 was not the best film of Tony Scott's career-- it seems safe to acknowledge that even today, when we're mourning his shocking death yesterday at the age of 68. But Pelham 1,2,3, did give me the opportunity, back in 2009, to participate in a lengthy roundtable interview with Scott, one of the longest interviews I'd gotten to do that point, and more freewheeling and wide-ranging over his entire career than I ever would have expected.
Wearing his trademark orange hat, and with an enchanting energy that I think inspired everyone in the room to ask him more out-there questions than they would have otherwise, Tony Scott seemed to be talking about everything-- including summing up his trademark frenetic camera style, which wound up in Pelham 1,2,3 as a gigantic 360-degree pan shot around James Gandolfini talking on the phone:
360s! It's about energy and it's about momentum, and I think the movie's very exciting, and it's not one individual thing. The true excitement comes from the actors – that gives you the true drama – and whatever I can do with the camera, that's icing on the cake. I wanted the movie to grab you. I use four cameras and I maybe do three takes – so the actors love it. Maybe I move it more than I should, but that's the nature of the way I am. One of the big challenges for this movie, and one of the reasons it's sort of perverse why I took it on is in the original, it's really about two guys on the telephone for two-thirds of the movie, and I said, "Damn! This is going to be hard trying to keep it tense!" I was always seeing that tension, and Brian gave me the tension on the pages, and the actors gave me the tension in terms of their interplay.
And in talking about how he defined New York as a character, he good-naturedly described himself as a "plagiarist," and name-dropped probably the last movie you'd expect to inspire Tony Scott:
You look at how I shot New York in the beginning, my definition I stole from Koyaanisqatsi. I said 'How can I portray New York, not just differently from how it's done before, but how can I portray it as the guy that John Travolta wanted to take revenge on, wanted to humiliate.' I'm a plagiarist-- I always look back at other movies and I steal, but I steal well, and I reinvent. Koyaanisqatsi, it's a huge stoner movie. It was just time lapse, and i thought it was great. I kept reaching, saying how can I grab the audience right at the beginning, make them feel the anxiety and the pressure of New York. Then I cut my opening title sequence.
He also allowed for a little nostalgia storytelling, including the warts-and-all story of how Top Gun got made, which includes late producer Don Simpson channel-surfing while high and catching Scott's low-budget feature The Hunger:
With Top Gun, I had just done The Hunger, and Hollywood's always trying to find the new kid on the block, and nobody's seen a foot of film, and I was actually developing Man on Fire 25 years ago, and they saw a cut of The Hunger, and all of a sudden my parking spot at Warner Brothers was painted out! It took me four more years to get another movie, which was Top Gun. Don Simpson saw [The Hunger] channel-surfing at 3 a.m. – I think he was high. And he actually saw a Saab commercial that I shot which is a jet racing a car, then he saw The Hunger, and him and Jerry [Bruckheimer] called me. Hollywood just hated that movie. They called it, "Esoteric, artsy-fartsy."
Scott had previously described his working relationship with brother Ridley as "right arm/left arm," but when asked a fairly boilerplate question about what turns an action movie into a classic, he allowed a little insight into a life was hugely successful, but not as well-regarded as for the man who made Alien and Blade Runner and won Oscars for Gladiator.
I always get criticized for style over content, unlike Ridley's films like Alien or Blade Runner or Gladiator that go right into the classic box right away. Mine sort of hover. Maybe with time people will start saying they should be classics, but I think I'm always perceived as reaching too hard for difference, and difference doesn't categorize you as the 'classic' category.
He ended with an anecdote that's fairly chilling in light of his death, jumping from a bridge in Los Angeles. Having used the word "fear" many times to describe a motivating factor in his filmmaking, Scott first described the darker side of his many characters, then told us of his pastime of rock-climbing when he was finished with a movie.
If you look at my body of work, there's always a dark side to my characters. They've always got a skeleton in the closet, they've always got a subtext. I like that. Whether it's Bruce Willis in Last Boy Scout or Denzel in this. I think fear, and there's two ways of looking at fear.
You can read the full, original interview here. Tony Scott, who changed commercial filmmaking forever with his much-initiated but never-repeated style, will be missed immensely.

5.4.2 Garbage Collection
As explained above, the
SCM type can represent all Scheme values.
Some values fit entirely into a
SCM value (such as small
integers), but other values require additional storage in the heap (such
as strings and vectors). This additional storage is managed
automatically by Guile. You don't need to explicitly deallocate it
when a
SCM value is no longer used.
Two things must be guaranteed so that Guile is able to manage the storage automatically: it must know about all blocks of memory that have ever been allocated for Scheme values, and it must know about all Scheme values that are still being used. Given this knowledge, Guile can periodically free all blocks that have been allocated but are not used by any active Scheme values. This activity is called garbage collection.
It is easy for Guile to remember all blocks of memory that it has allocated for use by Scheme values, but you need to help it with finding all Scheme values that are in use by C code.
You do this when writing a SMOB mark function, for example
(see section Garbage Collecting Smobs). By calling this function, the
garbage collector learns about all references that your SMOB has to
SCM values.
Other references to
SCM objects, such as global variables of type
SCM or other random data structures in the heap that contain
fields of type
SCM, can be made visible to the garbage collector
by calling the functions
scm_gc_protect or
scm_permanent_object. You normally use these functions for long
lived objects such as a hash table that is stored in a global variable.
For temporary references in local variables or function arguments, using
these functions would be too expensive.
These references are handled differently: Local variables (and function
arguments) of type
SCM are automatically visible to the garbage
collector. This works because the collector scans the stack for
potential references to
SCM objects and considers all referenced
objects to be alive. The scanning considers each and every word of the
stack, regardless of what it is actually used for, and then decides
whether it could possibly be a reference to a
SCM object. Thus,
the scanning is guaranteed to find all actual references, but it might
also find words that only accidentally look like references. These
'false positives' might keep
SCM objects alive that would
otherwise be considered dead. While this might waste memory, keeping an
object around longer than it strictly needs to is harmless. This is why
this technique is called "conservative garbage collection". In
practice, the wasted memory seems to be no problem.
The stack of every thread is scanned in this way and the registers of the CPU and all other memory locations where local variables or function parameters might show up are included in this scan as well.
The consequence of the conservative scanning is that you can just
declare local variables and function parameters of type
SCM and
be sure that the garbage collector will not free the corresponding
However, a local variable or function parameter is only protected as
long as it is really on the stack (or in some register). As an
optimization, the C compiler might reuse its location for some other
value and the
SCM object would no longer be protected. Normally,
this leads to exactly the right behavior: the compiler will only
overwrite a reference when it is no longer needed and thus the object
becomes unprotected precisely when the reference disappears, just as
There are situations, however, where a
SCM object needs to be
around longer than its reference from a local variable or function
parameter. This happens, for example, when you retrieve some pointer
from a smob and work with that pointer directly. The reference to the
SCM smob object might be dead after the pointer has been
retrieved, but the pointer itself (and the memory pointed to) is still
in use and thus the smob object must be protected. The compiler does
not know about this connection and might overwrite the
reference too early.
To get around this problem, you can use
and its cousins. It will keep the compiler from overwriting the
reference. For a typical example of its use, see Remembering During Operations.

The season of the light is upon us - a time of year that provides us with an opportunity to reflect on what we have, as well as focus on how we can make life better for others who may not be as fortunate.
South Carolina has more than 900,000 seniors, and that number is expected to double over the next 15 years, with those 50 and older accounting for almost half of our state's population by the year 2030, according to census projections.
Each of these senior adults has unique needs, and they are all faced with a different set of challenges, ranging from seniors who need help with transportation and mobility to those who must decide between buying groceries or medication.
This year, my office received a call from a neighbor of a gentleman who had been without electricity since 2009. The gentleman lived in his own home, but had suffered a stroke and gotten behind on his bills and property taxes.
The neighbor was concerned about the well-being of the gentleman, who had become buried under a cascading weight of unfortunate events in his life. He feared the harshness of winter on the way, but, like most seniors, he had been making do with the hand he had been dealt and was hesitant to ask for any assistance.
After the call, staff from my office quickly located a partner who was willing to help this gentleman get back on his feet: SCANA, the parent company of SCE&G.
The company answered the call in a big way. Even though they restored power to the house after replacing some of the wiring, the appliances were rusted and hot water and heat could not be restored.
But instead of saying there was nothing more they could do, they went to work weatherizing the home, installing new windows and doors, a water heater, insulation, and a new heating and air conditioning system. Additionally, we worked collectively with various groups to pay the gentleman's back-taxes and utilities to get him back on track.
While this story is somewhat of a worst-case scenario, it is not altogether uncommon. The situation illustrates not only how vulnerable our state's poor and indigent population is, but also how fragile the aging middle class in South Carolina has become.
In a nutshell, this is the face of aging for many older South Carolinians - the very people who may be our next-door neighbors.
This project demonstrated how a little generosity from others - particularly the electric linemen, gas journeymen, and other employees from SCE&G who volunteered their own personal time by providing their labor to help this gentleman - goes a long way.
In the future, it is going to take similar collaborative efforts across the state to make sure the needs for an aging South Carolina are met.
I salute SCANA and commend SCE&G and their employees for their role in the project. Together, they rose to the occasion and led the charge by answering a call greater than their own, which is a shining example for us all to follow.
Seniors in our state have paid their dues. They have worked hard all of their lives without expecting handouts, but through no fault of their own, in a time when they can no longer make it alone and need help because of the veil of age, we must do everything we can to make sure a helping hand is available.
As you recount life's blessings this holiday season, please take a moment to consider the needs of those around you who may be less fortunate.
To someone who needs help, what may be a small gift to you may mean the world to them. Let's make this a team effort; when everyone does a little, no one has to do a lot.
Opportunities to help our fellow man are all around us if we take a break from the complexities of life to look around us.
This year, be the glimmer of hope for a senior or vulnerable adult in your community who needs a helping hand.
For more information, contact the S.C. Lieutenant Governor's Office on Aging at 803-734-9900 or 800-868-9095 or visit www.aging.sc.gov.

The correct answer is "3."
"Who's" is short for "Who is."
"Whose" is used to describe items that belong to someone.
According to the question " The man next door has....," which indicates "one neighbour." So you have to choose the third answer because the neighbour in the sentence is singular.

Always a wonderful experience when I visit. Take advantage of the July special. I got a 85 minute massage and cupping combo with a foot treatment for $99. Worth every penny. Great massage, Jennifer was very friendly, and was able to work out all the knots. I will be back soon for another session and encourage everyone to take advantage of this amazing special.
Amazing nail work done by Patty! So happy I came here...I've never had LCN done but my nails look fabulous. Staff is so kind and welcoming, the owner sits right at the front desk and they truly make you feel comfy. Super clean and lovely space. Will be back!
I've been a customer of Ariana Spa for a while now. It's a warm, clean, comfortable environment. Everyone is nice and kind. I've enjoyed many manicures and pedicures, massages, haircuts and recently tried the Energy Therapy. When you go to Ariana Spa you feel like a Princess. Thank you Maria and staff for always making me feel special and beautiful.
I just had my first experience getting a deep tissue massage which was so refreshing. I have terrible back pains and wanted to take some of the tension off my back, the ladies were able to accommodate my last minute call and fit me in. The atmosphere was very clean and professional. Jenifer who treated me listened and helped work with my problem areas making sure to use the right amount of pressure. I do recommend stopping in to visit.
Love the service, they are very polite and "Maria" is very knowledgeable about the service she provide.
I've had chronic shoulder pain for years. I've been treated by a chiropractor and an orthopedic doctor, but still found myself in pain. On a whim, I went to Ariana Day Spa to get a massage from Jennifer. It helped my shoulder pain so much, I booked another appointment and another! I used to only think of a massage as a luxury, however, I've come to realize that massage is essential to keeping the body healthy. I highly recommend a massage from Jennifer to relieve all those aches and pains. Jennifer is very knowledgeable, and listens to your concerns. She is a true healer.
The services was wonderful!!!!! I went for a signature massage with Jennifer and she was great!!!. Tanya did one of the best Spa pedicure and manicure I ever had. Thank you for the service and attention that evwryone gave me today.... Will definitely go back for some more....
It was a great spa day ! I had a hot stone massage done then a sugar exfoliating , facial, mani + pedi and a wash and blow dry. Everyone was great they were kind , friendly , professional and most of all they make you feel comfortable. And the plus is that they are clean. I will absoulatetly be going back. It was a great day to start of my birthday weekend.
Very professional, relaxing atmosphere and revitalizing.
Details, clean
Very nice place. I got gel mani and I loved how it came out. The assortment of gel nail polishes is good. And stuff is friendly. I will definitely come back.
Great service! I made an appointment for this past Friday, the ladies are very sweet and helpful and understanding. My gift certificate had expired yet they were nice enough to honor it for me. They gave my mom great service and care instructions on her facial. They were able to put her with a Spanish speaking technician, she was very pleased. Would highly recommend this spa.
Everyone was so nice from the receptionist to the manicure and pedicure woman Joann. Joanna is super nice and very good at what she does. Great attention to detail and took her time! Definitely going back!
Ariana's truly professional. I have been a member for many years and go for a therapeutic massage monthly. It helps me release stress and between Maria's and Alex's magic fingers, they get every knot on my neck and back, and not to mention keeping my blood pressure down. Maria and her staff excellent all around.
I've been going to Ariana's for the last three years and have had nothing but a wonderful experience. As a dentist, my occupation puts a tremendous amount of stress on my upper back and neck. My monthly sessions with Maria have kept me working at my best. There have been days when I've woken up stiff and sore from a long day of work and Maria has worked her magic to get me feeling great. She is a true professional who loves her work and has a wonderful gift. She's intuitive and knows when, where, and how relieve the most stubborn muscle spasms. I've gone for massages in many different locations , but nothing comes close to my experiences at Arianas. 5 stars isn't enough!
Great Full Spa Day Experience
It was a great spa day ! I had a hot stone massage done then a sugar exfoliating , facial, mani + pedi and a wash and blow dry. Everyone was great they were kind , friendly , professional and most of all they make you feel comfortable. And the plus is that they are clean. I will absoulatetly be going back.

I had a first time WONDERFUL facial with Margaret. She was very professional, courteous, and experienced. I felt extremely comfortable throughout my facial and highly enjoyed every moment of it. I also have had massages with Maria, who is also wonderful!!!!!!,.......to say the very least!!!!!! The spa is very clean, and appealing, and.....does have a parking lot.. I HIGHLY recommend these terrific ladies for massages and facials. Truly...you will NOT!!....be disappointed.
Relaxing oasis close to homr
I had my first visit and first facial with Stephanie. While the front salon is open and bright, the treatment rooms are nestled in the back and felt very tranquil. The music choice, lighting and colors were exactly what I needed to help me further relax. I experience very dry skin and Stephanie made reccomendations for the facial that would give me the most benefit. She even added an extra eye treatment. My face felt baby soft afterward. It was a very personal experience and at the end I received a small discount and a complementary additional eye or lip treatment on a future session.
Best facial
I recently received my first facial with Erica. She was kind,professional and informative. The facial itself was amazing. Skin felt new again. Erica recommended products that would work to keep my skin looking great.
A pleasant experience
I recently had my first facial at Ariana. I found Liz to be professional, informative, and courteous. Much to my surprise, not only facial was helpful for sensitivity and dehydration but it was very relaxing. If you are having skin issues or simply looking to pamper yourself at an Inexpensive rate, I highly recommend Ariana.
Great facial
I just recently had a facial done with Stephanie. She was so professional so informative and made me feel secure in the service I was getting this is my first time visiting there I will give her another review in a few weeks after I have A few more facials done and let you know the outcome of my skin. My only complaint is I waited for half an hour after my scheduled appointment to be seen.
High quality service
Great massage from Jennifer! Helped work out my pulled back muscles. Stephanie was very informative and offered great feedback going forward.
High quality service and management is always looking to accommodate your needs.
I am a regular client of Ariana Day Spa. I use all of their services and everyone at Ariana's is extremely professional. I especially want to thank Ariana's hair stylist who has created amazing hair styles for me. I have had a lot of weddings to attend and she has been very creative and I have received many compliments on the styling of my hair. So make an appointment at Ariana's Day Spa and you will not be disappointed.
Ariana day spa is the first place I ever went to get my nails done, I had such a great experience that I fell in love with the process and wanted my nails done all the time. I tried out a couple of other places after that thinking that the experience would be the same. It was not. None of the other places I tried out were as pampering as Ariana day spa and none of them showed the same attention to detail. I think it is very unlikely that I will try to go to any other place to get them done for quite a while. I've only ever gotten a mani/pedi there and none of the other services they offer (a situation I hope to rectify soon) but if they show the same care in all of their services I know it will be amazing! Great spa, a million times worth it!
Great Spa and experience
Can honestly say this is the first time I got a real massage by a knowledgeable professional. It was relaxing and woudl definitely come back again. Staff is very friendly and polite.
Relaxing, Wonderful Massage with Jenn
I went to Ariana Day Spa and got my first full body massage with Jennifer. She was absolutely wonderful in so many ways! For one, she made sure that I was comfortable with everything, making sure to ask me about my comfort frequently. She was also very in tune with my body! I felt that she did a really good job listening to my physical concerns and addressing them, as well as informing me about physical tension that I did not even know I had. The whole time, I felt very relaxed. I was a little sore the following day, but it wasn't unexpected. I would definitely come back for another massage!
Completely Relaxing and Rejuvenating Facial!
Today I had an Ultra Sensitive Facial with Tina. She was AMAZING! She took the time to explain everything to me and answered any questions I had. I loved all of the products she used during the facial. I feel completely relaxed and my face is fresh and glowing!!! Such a wonderful experience!!
Professional and friendly service
I was very pleased with my cut and color. The stylist was very competent and gave me exactly what I requested.
Facial & full body massage
Body massage was great but truly enjoyed my facial even more. Erica did an amazing job, I'll definitely return back for another facial. Professional & friendly atmosphere. Definitely recommend to others!
High quality of service and professionalism in delivery service
I have been going to Ariana's Day Spa since day one. I love the atmosphere, cheerful greetings, the positive energy and the outstanding service. I have my manicures and pedicures done by Gill, an excellent technician in her field. She's is thoughtful, friendly and courteous. Never a dissatisfied experience at Ariana's.
Quality service professional friendly respectful
I have been a client since Ariana Day Spa opened. The entire staff have always been professional kind and polite. I would recommend this spa for their sevices. Gil is absolutely wonderful and an excellent manicurist.
Awesome service with friendly and professional staff
I have been going to Araina Day Spa since they opened. The entire staff is extremely friendly and very attentive to your needs. I typically go to the spa for Deep Poor Cleansing Facials with Erica. Erica makes me feel so at home. She is very thorough and goes out of her way to make sure you are having a relaxing experience. She gives awesome facials and I highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for one. She will target your problem areas and will work with you to develop an at home skin care regimens that works with your skin type as well. Additionally I go for massages with Maria at least a few times a year. She is excellent and I recommend her as well! I have gone to her on numerous times with extremely tight painful knots in my back and I left her feeling like a million bucks! If you go to Ariana's Day Spa, you will definitely not be disappointed. I couldn't imagine going anywhere else!
Extremely Professional and Knowledgeable !
Both Venessa and Erika are extremely professional and knowledgeable on their craft. They explain their work while they apply the service. They provide insight and education to further extend your knowledge. They are sincere and passionate on providing an experience worth your time and money. I highly recommend these amazing ladies for your spa services. I have been a regular patron since Ariana Day Spa opened its doors. My only suggestion as a whole is to work on a quieter environment/surrounding to complete the experience.
So far at Ariana's I have had facials (by Stephanie) who is the very best. Could not have any better. So book an appt. ASAP. You will not be disappointed. I even booked an appt. for my 13 yr. old for a facial w/Stephanie. I also have had pedicures, and massages. If you want to feel like you have an extended family, then Ariana's is the place. The owner Maria is the best. She makes you feel at home and very accommodating. All the staff at Ariana's make you feel right at home. Great personalities and always with a smile. This is why I keep going back and if you haven't had experience at Ariana's you are missing out. So stop by for a visit and you will not be disappointed.
The best facial ever at Ariana Day Spa in Bayonne NJ
Sunday mornings at Ariana Day Spa has become one of my favorite places for Spa services.. Because I travel a lot it is difficult for me to book services in advance. However Maria, the owner, always seems to be able to find me a place on Sunday. Quiet and never rushed it is a great time for a quiet mani/ pedis. Today I had one of my most relaxing facials ever by Helina. The staff is very knowledgeable no matter what service you order. I particularly like the neighborhood feel and the genuine concern staff has for making sure you are satisfied. Thanks to all for making today a very enjoyable experience.
Always exactly what I want
Thanks to Sara for a perfect shellac manicure!!
I have been going to Ariana Day Spa for several years now, and cannot say enough good things about it. From the front desk staff greeting you by name with a smile, to the beautiful and relaxing environment (refreshments & coffee always served) to the wonderful services that they provide - it is truly a pleasure to come here. I get my massages bi-weekly from Felix, who is an incredibly talented massage therapist. He is up to date on innovative massage techniques & will suggest different things depending on what is hurting you. He uses a combination of standard, sports, deep-tissue & even Japanese methods - all of which lends itself to a relaxing & healing experience. I have been getting regular massages for years & this by far is the best experience both from the way I am always treated as a valued client to the incredible massage that I get from Felix. I would highly recommend this spa to anyone who is local to Bayonne or Jersey City, and it's even worth the drive from farther away if you want a top-notch experience!
High Quality Service
It is not often that I would take the time to write a review about a business; however, in this instance I must applaud the quality of service I receive at Ariana's Day Spa. The care given while I receive my manicures, pedicures and facials is superior. The facility is immaculate and customer satisfaction is catered to the individual. The friendly atmosphere makes you feel as if you are a cherished customer. Kudos to a wonderful establishment!
Professional and Friendly
Every experience that I have had at Ariana Day Spa has been exceptional. The spa is modern and very clean. The staff is friendly and extremely welcoming. I go to Stephanie for all of my services. She is beyond knowledgeable, friendly, caring and professional. She walks you through every step of the process and truly wants to you to see results in your skin. She is passionate about what she does and her passion fills the room every time that you walk in. I would definitely recommend this spa to anyone who is looking for a family like atmosphere.
