Jenny Laroche isn't just a dancer, choreographer, actress & Broadway star…
After chatting with her for a 25-minute Instagram Live session, we learned so much more about this multitalented New York City-based artist.
Jenny, a Floridian and SUNY Buffalo graduate, has over 15 years of experience in dance. She has performed as a Radio City Rockette, starred in Steven Spielberg's SMASH, appeared in Blockbusters such as New Year's Eve, Annie, was an original cast member of Broadway's Summer: The Donna Summer Musical and Associate Choreographer of the National Tour, and even Associate directed theatrical productions including Mariah Carey's All I Want For Christmas show. But that's not all!"
Jenny wants to give back to the community by offering her wisdom and sharing her experiences as a Mentorly mentor and through personal projects.
How did Jenny explore her passion for dance and how did it lead to so many great experiences? How did her other talents follow and contribute to her success? Take a look at her inspiring journey that will motivate you to dream big!
▹ Let's start from the top. You grew up in Fort Lauderdale. Did you train from a really young age? Or did you always know you wanted to be a performer, an actress?
▸ "I started dancing when I was 3 years old. And like, I'm sure, many other kids, my mom put me in dance cause I wouldn't stop moving. I would just dance all over the house. I was always tumbling or falling, and then she finally put me in dance, and I've been dancing ever since."
▹ Did your parents feel like this was going to be your profession? Or how did you figure out that you wanted to pursue this?
▸ "From when I was a kid, I always loved it. And I never really knew you could make it into a profession. [To think] How do you actually do this for a living? How is this your livelihood? – type of thing. That was always a question and a fear growing up. As for my parents, I wouldn't be a performer if it weren't for them and their encouragement. My dad, who was my biggest cheerleader, has sadly passed away about two years ago now. […]
Moving from Fort Lauderdale to New York? What? That's the biggest step. My dad said, "You'll never know until you try. Florida isn't going anywhere. You could always try pursuing other things afterwards." With that total safety net, I moved here. […] I got my BFA at SUNY, and I would spend my summers coming to New York City, training and figuring out the subway. That's how I started to get acquainted with Manhattan. […] It was the best thing I could've done, cause then after I graduated, I moved here and I felt like I got this – let's just go for it."
▹ Do you feel like New York is still the place for people to go if they have big dreams and want to make it, or do you think it's a little bit more equalized now?
▸ "No, absolutely. It's still very much a place for ambitious, hard-working people that have a dream and really want to pursue it and follow it. I still put emphasis on the hard-working, determined, persistent people. It's just one of those places that weeds out the weak, if you're not going to keep pushing through the many obstacles that come your way as an artist, actor, dancer, singer […] it's a really tough place because no one's here to hold your hand. You just have to chug along, but you're also among friends that are doing the same thing, that are putting in the same time and energy. It's a great community."
▹ How did you build that community of friends? Did you meet them at auditions? Did you find them to be competitive or can you really lean on them as you go through that journey?
▸ "My friends in the industry, I can absolutely lean on them. The friends I have now, I have met through job experiences – we're always at the same auditions and all that. There are definitely some people, but they tend to not to become your friends, who are very competitive, and maybe don't know how to balance the fact that this is our job and way of life and that we're always auditioning. But at the same time, you support each other, right? We're always going to be working together in one way or another. We never want to create an atmosphere where you have this reputation about yourself, however that may be, because if the person you're auditioning with, is not booking the job with you – down the line they might be a casting director, a director, choreographer […] The community is actually really small, so it's important that you have to be respectful."
▹ Have you found one niche area to be your favorite or that has lead to more opportunities? How do you balance your talents and how do you choose what to pursue?
▸ "I always like to dip a toe in everything, I think that's why I managed to do television, film, broadway, off-broadway, commercial dance, working for musical artists… I like to gain new experiences and make sure I'm always growing and learning. That's something I like. I remember, so my first job, I was a Radio City Rockette, I toured the country. Coming back I would just audition, audition, audition. After Rockettes, I went into television and SMASH came about. [They] offered me the part. [On set] We had a live audience, I had been shooting the series for a year. That instant gratification, the applause, the energy, I realized how much I missed being on stage. Television was no longer enough for me. Then I went back to, "I just need to be on the stage, I need to feel that energy, creating movement and transitions," and all of that. It's a different energy that you can't get on set. But honestly, I love both, whenever I'm doing one – I miss the other. As long as I get to keep going back and forth, I'm a happy gal."
▹ How did you find the confidence in yourself to know that you're ready for this, or that you were enough to read to get that big show? Or did you continue to learn and evolve as you continued to shoot the show?
▸ "You're never not growing as an artist. I'm always strengthening and maintaining. During the reading process, I worked with a coach. I never liked being boxed into any category. I've been very adamant about the book I am writing, it's called Don't Call Me a Dancer — my friends love that title. I admire Zoe Saldana, who has a dance background, but now she's this big-time blockbuster movie star. When you show people what you can do, they'll always hold you until your last title. If you stay in that box, you'll never get to use all of your assets. I keep pushing past titles, labels, boxes. That would be my suggestion for everyone. Whatever it is that you're passionate about […] as long as it's in your heart, and apart of your truth, no one can tell you anything."
▹ Can you talk a little bit about your own technique? And how you discovered that within yourself and made it very much a business?
▸ "The Laroche Approach, a play on my name – I started it about 5 years ago. I was teaching master classes, which I loved doing, but I felt like it wasn't enough. It started at SUNY Buffalo, I was one of their alumni members. I said I wanted to create my own seminar. I was like, "Everyone, bring your notepads, I want to go over the business of the arts, I want to talk about budgeting, how to even find an apartment in Manhattan. How do I find fellow auditionees? How do I network? How do I audition?" There are a lot of things I wasn't teaching. The seminar went over so well, and what really stuck with me is a student was like, "I can't tell you how beneficial this was. Because we love our professors, and we love that we're getting a degree from this art. But the people that we're learning from have been out of the business for so long that we're asking questions that no one knows the answers to." That's what I love Mentorly so much. I would've loved to have a mentor in the business that could kinda hold your hand and guide you. Make sure you're not just trusting whatever agent of manager that's approaching you at the time. From then on, I've done private and individualized sessions. I have my first workshop coming up, I'm going to be teaching choreography, technique. I'm bringing an agent with me to have that conversation of looking over contracts and all of that stuff, as well as a director – so everyone can get the full, triple-threat learning experience."
▹ With your Mentorly experience, what did you connect over? Is there anything that you'd love to share with our Instagram live audience?
▸ "I loved meeting someone new. My first mentee – lovely – I don't think I would've met her without this platform. She really wanted to know how to get into the business, aside from showing up to open-call auditions. She wanted accurate, of-the-time feedback as well as what we don't necessarily want to talk about. [Like] How do you maintain a sense of value when you're not doing a show, and you aren't being hired for something? We have the conversations of what castings, directors [look for], it's all a long list – and it doesn't necessarily have anything to do with you. A lot of that stigma, I also love talking about. I share my own practices, meditation, balance and passion projects you always have when you're off-season. There's always going to be an off-season, no matter who you are. Even if you're Brad Pitt. There's always gonna be an in-between of contracts, the sense of value is really important and that's very individual."

Density and Affordable Housing
Housing costs can be directly related to the very basic economic theory of supply and demand. As demand increases and supply remains the same, the costs necessarily go up. This is very much evident in Sebastopol today. Sebastopol is seen as a desirable community to live in. It's small, has

Below are articles about ice, arranged in 7 major groups: Ice Dynamics, Antarctica, Greenland, Other Glaciers, Combined Regions, Sea Ice, and Snow. The many articles on permafrost and seabed methane hydrates are found on the Carbon + & - page.
Month and year follow each article's name. PDF files are so marked, after month and date, some with authors noted. Within sections, more recent files appear above older files.
Diagrams are generally immediately below the summary articles from which they were taken.
Ice Dynamics
Several of the articles below point to faster changes observed in glaciers and ice sheets than models allow for. That is, ice models need to be improved to account better for the processes identified. The upshot is that ice loss generally occurs faster that models project. This implies that sea level, during this century, will rise faster than some projections.

Cold icemelt from Antarctica spreads out along the ocean surface. That prevents the vertical mixing (warmer water to the top) there that has driven the great ocean circulation. In Antarctica, the warmer water below the ice eats away at placiers from underneath. Cold icemelt from Greenland leads to shutdown of the Atlantic overturning circulation.
Ice losses from Greenland and Antartica grow, modelled as exponentially, with doubling times of 10, 20, or 40 years. Sea level rises non-linearly, 5-9 meters over 50 to 150 years. This is simlar to what happened 120,000 years ago, when sea levels rose from 3-4 meters higher than today to about 9 meters higher, including 2-3 meters within several decades. (For perspective, the sea level range (maximum - minimum) over the recent ice ages was about 125 meters.)

Antarctica holds about 90% of the ice on Earth, almost 10% in West Antarctica (including 1% in the Antarctic Peninsula) and some 80% in East Antarctica (in right half of circle below). West Antarctica's ice, if melted, would raise sea level almost 6 meters (20 feet). If all of East Antarctica's ice melted, it would raise sea level almost 60 meters (200 feet). Until 40 million years ago, Antarctica had no ice and sea levels were far higher than now.
Antarctica Bedrock Topograhic Map
Glaciation in Antarctica began 39 million years (MY) ago. It was largely complete by 34 MY ago. Antarctic ice has waxed and waned some since then, but has been generally similar to the amount today.
In recent years, ice shelf breakup has concentrated on the Antarctic Peninsula (upper left). But ice loss from retreating glaciers in West Antarctica (in left half of circle) has begun.
Roughly 2/3 of West Antarctica's ice is grounded below sea level. But so is some 1/3 of East Antarctica's, more than half in the Wilkes and Aurora Basins ("southeast" quadrant), toward Australia and New Zealand. That's more square miles in the East than the West.

Greenland holds about 10% of the world's ice. If it all melts, sea level would rise 6-7 meters (20+ feet).
Greenland Bedrock Topographic Map Created using ETOPO1 Global Relief Model bedrock version
www.ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/global/global.html .
Greenland ice growth began almost 10 million years ago and reached roughly current levels more than 2 million years ago.
Over the past 2 million years, ice sheets repeatedly grew and shrank across Canada, the northern US, most of Siberia, and most of northern Europe. We call these periods Ice Ages. At their peak, these ice sheets held twice as much ice as Antarctica does today. (See Hansen 0913 on Overviews page for a geologically recent history of sea level.) From 20 to 8 thousand years ago (KYa), those ice sheets vanished, raising sea levels by 1 meter per century, including 1.5 meter per century from 15 to 8 KYa.
Some researchers (Robinson, Koenig) have made the case that current CO2 levels are incompatible with continued existence of the Greenland ice cap or sheet, especially once temperatures increase to those associated with past CO2 levels this high (~ 400 ppm).
Perhaps 20% of Greenland's ice is grounded below sea level. But most of that is inland sea, not connected to the ocean. Maybe 5% to the ocean.
What Arctic Ice Tells Us about Climate Change 0823 - Greenland ice sheet in its entirety is threatened. The Arctic is warming 4 X as fast as the rest of Earth's surface. This impacts sea level rise and ocean currents. Etc.

Ice Melt, Sea Level Rise and Superstorms: Evidence from Paleoclimate Data, Climate Modeling, and Modern Observations that 2°C Global Warming is Dangerous - Hansen et al. 0316 - PDF, 20 pp. - abridgement of the peer-reviewed publication
Cold icemelt from Antarctica spreads out along the ocean surface. That prevents the vertical mixing (warmer water to the top) there that has driven the great ocean circulation. In Antarctica, the warmer water below the ice eats away at placiers from underneath. Cold icemelt from Greenland leads to shutdown of the Atlantic overturning circulation.
Ice losses from Greenland and Antartica grow, modelled as exponentially, with doubling times of 10, 20, or 40 years. Sea level rises non-linearly, 5-9 meters over 50 to 150 years. This is simlar to what happened 120,000 years ago, when sea levels rose from 3-4 meters higher than today to about 9 meters higher, including 2-3 meters within several decades. (For perspective, the sea level range (maximum - minimum) over the recent ice ages was about 125 meters.)

What Happens in Antarctica, Doesn't Stay in Antarctica 0823 - Among other things, declining sea ice amplifies warming - locally and even globally - by increasing how much sunlight the Earth absorbs, for further warming. This albedo effect, an albedo feedback, amplifies how much Earth warms and how fast sea ice melts (shrinks). See top diagram on the Heat webpage.

Snow & Ice
1970 1980 1990 2000 2010
As shown above, mean annual northern hemisphere snow cover is 9.9 million square miles, or 25.6 million square kilometers The minimum is in August and the maximum in January.
Projection, from IPCC 5th Climate Assessment, Science Summary
1980 2000 2020 2040 2060 2080 2100
We're 60 Years Too Late to Stop Global Warming, Sea Level Rises 1120 - Among other things, snow cover around the poles shrinks (especially melts earlier) as the climate warms. This allows Earth to absorb more sunlight, into the darker ground and plants beneath the snow. This increased energy, in part, heats the air above the ground, for still more sensible warming.
Greater Snowfall Speeds the Melting of Arctic Tundra 0823 - It insulates the permafrost underneath it from the very cold air of winter, so that the permafrost thaws earlier or deeper in the warmer seasons.

Welcome back to Top Shelf Prospects, the daily column that brings you the next crop of professional hockey players. Each day I will bring you a new player profile or topical article in the lead-up to the 2014 NHL Draft. Be sure to bookmark the site, follow me on Twitter, and spread the word for the site that will bring you analytical and critical profiles and scouting reports! Last Word On Sports is your new headquarters for everything "NHL Draft"! For a Complete Listing of all our 2014 Draft Articles Click here.
Josh Ho-Sang was the fifth overall pick by the Windsor Spitfires in the 2012 OHL Priority Draft and seeing his skill, its easy to see why. He is one of the most purely skilled players in the league. That said, there are also some very big red flags around him, and thats what makes him one of the most intriguing prospects in the 2014 NHL Draft. For a player with his skill set, he should have been a shoe-in to be a part of Canada's 2014 U18 World Championship team, but Ho-Sang wasn't even invited to the team's try-out camp. This despite a season where he scored 32 goals and 85 points in 67 games for the Spitfires and finished amongst the top 20 of all OHL scorers. When he's on his game he can absolutely dominate as he did in a six-point night against North Bay.
Josh Ho-Sang
Right Wing — shoots Right
Born Jan 22 1996 — Thornhill, ONT
Height 5.11 — Weight 160 [180 cm/73 kg]
Josh Ho-Sang is incredibly skilled. He is a lightning fast skater with incredible agility and edgework. Ho-Sang has a great first step and outstanding acceleration as well. This helps him to get to loose pucks and dart through openings in the offensive zone. He could stand to use this great speed more, taking defenders wide and cutting to the net more often would add another aspect to his game off the rush. Improved strength would help him to have better balance and be stronger on the puck.
Ho-Sang also has quick, soft hands, and incredible puck control. When he's on his game, he is a joy to watch as he can do things with the puck that other players only dream of. He quite literally can stickhandle in a phone-booth. Ho-Sang can play the role of playmaker with good vision and excellent passing skills. He has the ability to make a saucer pass over sticks, or to thread the needle through very small areas. Ho-Sang can score goals with his excellent moves and soft hands. He also has a good release on his wrist shot but could use more power. His one-timer could also be stronger. That may come as he bulks up, which is something that Ho-Sang will definitely need to do before going pro. He can make dynamic offensive plays when he has time and space, but in fighting traffic he still gets knocked off the puck a little bit too often, and this is another area where bulking up would help.
Ho-Sang's defensive game is a work in progress. He's certainly worked to improve it this season, and its gotten better as the year has gone on. Still there are too many times he's in the wrong position, or outmuscled by an opponent, or his effort level could be higher. He's getting better though, and it was particularly noticeable how his effort level dipped a little after the trade of linemate Kerby Rychel (for a week or so) only to see Ho-Sang come back very strong and be a key piece in taking over as Windsor's best player and carrying the team down the stretch. In this way there are some signs that he is starting to mature.
He can use work on his discipline, and that can be seen through the long suspension he received for a hit from behind in Windsor's four-game loss to London in the playoffs. While the length of the suspension (15 games) has been widely debated, and I'm one who thinks the OHL got it wrong here and it was far too harsh on Ho-Sang, what can't be debated is the fact that he has a tendency to take undisciplined penalties when things dont go his way on the ice, and that can hurt his team.
Josh Ho-Sang is one of this year's biggest "boom or bust" prospects. The skill is clearly apparent, and it is clearly high-end, very high-end. This is a player who has the talent level to be a top 10 ranked guy. The issues, consistency of effort, attitude, discipline, and defense will cause him to fall. However if put with the right coaching and development his ceiling is incredibly high. In terms of style, Ho-Sang is reminiscent of Nazem Kadri of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Here are some highlights of Josh Ho-Sang at his best. First up in the compilation are the highlights of his six-point night.
Check back tomorrow for my number 25 ranked prospect.

Evaluation of different prebiotics showed contradictory results on intestinal microbiota which was mainly depends on the degree of polymerization. Therefore, the present study was performed to investigate the effects of different levels of two prebiotics, Inulin and oligofructose with different degree of polymerization on intestinal microbiota of Carp (Cyprinus carpio) larvae. The study was performed as randomized design with 5 treatments and 3 replications in which carp larvae were fed different levels, 0, 0.5 and 1% of Inulin and oligofructose with different 23 and 5 degree of polymerization, respectively (Purity 92%) for 8 weeks. At the end of the feeding trial culture based analysis of intestinal microbiota include lactic acid bacteria levels count agar media. Administration of different levels of Inulin and oligofructose had no significant effects on total bacteria of intestinal microbiota (P > 0.05). The lactic acid bacteria levels were significantly increased compared following prebiotics administration in diet (P > 0.05). LAB levels in intestinal microbiota of oligofructose fed fish were significantly higher than those in Inulin group. The highest LAB proportion in intestinal microbiota was observed in carp fed diet contains 1% oligofructose (P > 0.05). The results of the present study revealed that prebiotics can be used for modulation of carp intestinal microbiota toward beneficial bacterial communities. Furthermore, administrations of the prebiotic with lower degree of polymerization are more efficient for modulation of intestinal microbiota and elevation of LAB levels.

What can we say about shiplap that hasn't already been chronicled by Chip and Joanna Gaines in the tomes of media they produce? Even if you don't know exactly what it is, you probably know that Chip and Jo are ALL ABOUT some shiplap. Only knowing this, and only being casually aware of them as public figures, you could be forgiven if you misidentified shiplap as an even less saturated Instagram filter or a free trade craft to farmhouse coffee blend.
But the reality of shiplap is much simpler than all of that. Shiplap is the name given to planks of wood constructed with opposing rabbet joints that overlap each other, leaving a narrow, contrasting space between boards. Before drywall was invented, shiplap, covered with muslin or cheesecloth, provided the base layer for adhesive wallpaper.
Now, saying that something isn't complicated isn't the same thing as saying that it isn't special. A grilled cheese sandwich isn't complicated, but it sure is special (at least we think so). Look at the way that this home utilizes shiplap in their living room. Simple, but impactful.
But maybe that simplicity is what we find so appealing about shiplap. Maybe it's the frank, unencumbered beauty of natural wood grain spanning the length of the wall. Maybe it's the discrete tidiness of the lines created by the boards as each casts its slight shadow on the one beneath. Or maybe it speaks to the idea of a simpler time in history, where a truer earnestness of craftsmanship characterized the construction of not only our homes, but also our lives.
However you think about it, shiplap is a detail we love, and we think it brings a ton of character to any space. The photos featured here are found in one of our recent listings. You can click on any of the photos or here to learn more.
Thanks for reading! We'll see you next week!

A Rio Local Shares Her City Secrets
Heading to Rio de Janeiro for the Games and looking to avoid the madding crowd? Hotel Fasano's Julia Miranda gives you the inside track on where to eat, drink, party and shop in the Olympic city.
Order a Caipirinha in a British-style bar
When my friends are in town, I take them for a drink at Baretto-Londra, Fasano's London-themed bar. Barman André Paixão makes fantastic drinks, especially vodka cocktails with fresh local fruits.
Sample some of Rio's finest local produce
The restaurant that best shows off Rio is Lasai in Botafogo. It's a great place to go for a contemporary take on classic dishes. Chef Rafa Costa e Silva grows his own produce so everything is fresh and seasonal and the dégustation menu changes every day.
Visit one of Lapa's famous nightclubs
If you want a nightclub experience there's a neighbourhood called Lapa, which has lots of live music such as samba and forró. Carioca da Gema is an authentic bar in an old mansion, where every night there's a different band playing. The bohemian Rio Scenarium sells antiques during the day and later becomes a nightclub with live music.
Talk shop over hearty Italian fare
For a business meeting, I book a table at Gero Ipanema restaurant, which serves outstanding classic Italian cuisine. It's quite private and a popular meeting spot.
Eat a typical Brazilian breakfast
My favourite breakfast place is Da Casa da Táta, a small, cosy, casual café in the neighbourhood of Gávea. They prepare fresh juices, use local produce and bake cakes, breads and tartlets. Every morning there's a set breakfast with fresh treats, which are all delicious.
SEE ALSO: Rio de Janeiro's Red-hot Restaurants
Enjoy an Australian-style coffee
And for the best coffee, I go to Kraft Café & Bistrô in Ipanema. It's owned by an Australian, Duncan Hay, who roasts the coffee in his own home in Rio. Duncan is great with customers and makes the best coffee in Rio.
Visit the farmer's market
If you want a market experience, visit the Botanical Garden on Saturday, when there's a farmers' market selling everything fresh. I recommend the tapioca with beetroot flavour. You can have it with coconut water – it's delicious.
Shop 'til you drop
If you're after designer labels, go to Village Mall, in Barra da Tijuca, where you will find brands such as Burberry, Cartier, Ermenegildo Zegna, Hugo Boss, Prada and Tiffany & Co. Also visit Dona Coisa, close to the Botanical Garden, for Brazilian designers – the clothes, shoes and prints are of a high quality.
Stock up on thongs
The best place to buy a gift or memento is one of the Havaianas stores. You can often find limited editions of the essential Brazilian footwear, as well as ones created and signed by local designers.
For romance, head for the hills
For a romantic experience, couples should go to Aprazível, which is on top of the hill in Santa Teresa. It's a contemporary Brazilian restaurant that serves dishes from the north and north-east and uses local produce. But the highlight is the amazing view of the city – you can almost see the whole of Rio. Aprazível is like a treehouse and has outdoor tables. It's very romantic and perfect to celebrate a special occasion.
On your bike
The best thing to do outdoors is ride a bike. You can cycle to the oldest neighbourhood in town, Urca, at the foot of Sugarloaf Mountain. There's a place called Bar Urca – it's popular but small and relaxing, with a great food and drinks menu.
Take in some culture
If it's raining, visit the Museum of Modern Art. The building was designed in the '50s so it has contemporary architecture and hosts great exhibitions.
Get out of Rio
The best daytrip is Paraty, a colonial town with small streets and cobblestones. It's quaint and authentically old Brazilian.
Rio's best-kept secret
The Jardim Botânico neighbourhood, where the Botanical Garden is located, is a special place with lots of authentic shops, modern restaurants and houses built at the beginning of the century. You can have drinks at one of the many bars and restaurants and just relax.

This is the fifth, and final in our series on Building a Business Case for Compliance Technology for Hearsay Systems. In this article, Mitch Avnet shares his thoughts on the final phase of implementation in your compliance strategy, and the important role a project manager or PM will play in the process.
Reaching the implementation stage of your compliance technology plan is a major accomplishment. It means you've successfully completed a gap analysis, drawn an implementation road map, decided on vendors and received the go-ahead from executive leadership. Congratulations! But don't rest on your laurels just yet – the ultimate success of your project depends on some key factors during the final phase of implementation.
To ensure you can execute according to plan, you'll need a strong project manager or PM team, depending on the size of your organization and complexity of your implementation. Some organizations have the bandwidth to manage a major project internally, others turn management over to an outside consultancy who works with the internal implementation team.

Hostinger has a number of hosting plans with generous options and lots of help getting started with your website. The pricing is pretty reasonable as well. It's a good hosting option for the money, but just be aware of the slower-than-desirable server load time and an unaccredited Better Business Bureau rating.
iPage's long-lasting status as a hosting provider since 1998 with over a million websites is an example of how those factors are not a guarantee that a service will be fit for your needs. Users of iPage are evenly divided between loving and hating it. With numerous complaints about performance, usability, and customer satisfaction, we cannot recommend iPage's web hosting at this time.
Having a website is a necessity for anyone who wants to communicate with a regional, national, or global audience. Whether it's a website for brand awareness, eCommerce, media, services, writing, or a hobby, every site needs to be hosted somewhere. Since the web began, thousands of hosting companies have arisen, flourished, and disappeared. How do you know which companies available today will be around as long as you plan to have your website online? And, how do you know what features to look for?
For starters, be aware of your budget and what hosting companies charge. Don't be lured in by apparently low-priced plans without first reading the fine print. Many companies attract website owners with seemingly impossibly low fees only to jack up the rate at the time the hosting plan is renewed. Some offer a single rate regardless of the billing period. Others offer discounts based on whether you pay monthly, yearly or multiple years in advance. Yet others offer more advanced capabilities depending on the size and needs of your website and audience.
When considering features, make a list of what you really need, what would be good to have, and what isn't very necessary. For example, do you need a plethora of themes to choose from in a do-it-yourself direction, or would you rather have a web designer create a custom design for you? Do you need a high-availability, supercharged dedicated server or just a bit of space on a shared server? Do you plan to develop your own code or do you need a professional developer for that? If you don't have a domain, will the host sell you one? If you do have a domain, how hard is it for the host to transfer it and also migrate your existing site? If you need email, eCommerce, advertising, and search engine optimization (SEO), be sure to list those as well.
Something people almost never think about is security and performance. Most like to assume that all hosts are secure and provide fast page load speeds. But that isn't always the case! This is especially a problem when a host charges very low prices for marginally capable plans. Those services are not likely to be secure or fast. Beware of shared hosting, which means your site is among hundreds or even thousands of others housed on the same server. In a shared server, when someone else's site is compromised or has a problem, it puts your site at risk.
Finally, look at a hosting company's reputation. This is not just about how many years they have in business. It's a combination of longevity, how they treat customers, how many complaints are logged, and how many of those complaints are directly answered by a representative of the company. Ask other website owners, web designers, and developers if they like or dislike a hosting company you're considering. Most of them will be able to share good and bad stories about any hosting company.
When evaluating your list and narrowing down your choices, consider these factors:

The sequel to The Shining, Stephen King's classic horror story turned into a movie starring Jack Nicholson, will be released on September 24, 2013, the author announced on his website today.
According to King's website, the book, called "Doctor Sleep," is about a grown-up Danny Torrance, the child from the original story, and his friendship with a twelve-year-old girl.
On highways across America, a tribe of people called The True Knot travel in search of sustenance. They look harmless—mostly old, lots of polyester, and married to their RVs. But as Dan Torrance knows, and tween Abra Stone learns, The True Knot are quasi-immortal, living off the "steam" that children with the "shining" produce when they are slowly tortured to death.
Haunted by the inhabitants of the Overlook Hotel where he spent one horrific childhood year, Dan has been drifting for decades, desperate to shed his father's legacy of despair, alcoholism, and violence. Finally, he settles in a New Hampshire town, an AA community that sustains him, and a job at a nursing home where his remnant "shining" power provides the crucial final comfort to the dying. Aided by a prescient cat, he becomes "Doctor Sleep."
Then Dan meets the evanescent Abra Stone, and it is her spectacular gift, the brightest shining ever seen, that reignites Dan's own demons and summons him to a battle for Abra's soul and survival. This is an epic war between good and evil, a gory, glorious story that will thrill the millions of hyper-devoted readers of "The Shining" and wildly satisfy anyone new to the territory of this icon in the King canon.
Nearly a year ago, King read a chapter of the book at an awards ceremony at George Mason University. You can watch that video above.

How to identify the Satanic whispers
Assalam oalaikum,
It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbaas (ra) that a man came to the Prophet Mohammad (saw) and said, "I think thoughts to myself, which I would rather be burnt to a cinder than speak of them." Prophet Mohammad (saw) said, "Praise be to Allaah, Who has reduced all his [the Shaytaan's] plots to mere whispers." (Narrated by Abu Dawood).
This hadith shows us that if a person simply loathes the satanic whispers and feels irritated because of them then this is a good sign. This is because by hating those whispers rather then getting enticed by them or succumbing to them that person has protected himself from committing great sins.
Positively speaking, such a man displays signs of true Imaan. Such a person can easily differentiate between his own natural thoughts and the satanic whispers. The latter, after all, always leave a bad taste in the mouth. They are crafted in such a way by shaitan so as to make a person confused or fearful. They tend to weaken our Imaan.
Hence, the satanic whispers can be easily identified by a pious Muslim because in most cases they create tension in the mind of a person.
