The emotional functions of the brain are interwoven at many levels. These maps provide an overview of the major areas of the brain involved in processing emotions.

In the last decade, the use of video in the enterprise has experienced explosive growth. The internet has fueled this growth, allowing for video to be hosted, archived, and distributed live or on-demand at a fraction of the cost of traditional video methods. Training for example, used to be done in-person or with the aid of VHS or DVD recordings. However, the production costs were high, and the physical tape or DVD had to actually be delivered to the viewer’s location. By contrast, tools such as on-demand webcasting and online video portals now allow trainees to view video content from their own laptop, desktop, or even mobile devices.
Employees can now collaborate on projects from remote locations with much greater ease and efficiency through the use of video conferencing and webcasting tools.
With this all in mind, we thought it would be a fun exercise to develop an infographic highlighting the evolution of business video in the enterprise.

You know that old saying, “A picture is worth a thousand words”? We couldn’t agree more. Which is why we created a super-helpful infographic to show the difference between old-school job scheduling and today’s workload automation. In this gripping graphic, you’ll see:
There are a number of social media companies who made it to a billion dollar valuation since they first started in 2004 and onwards. Names like Facebook, HomeAway, Box, Workday, Twitter, Spotify, Zynga, Dropbox, Evernote, Airbnb, Groupon, Square and Instagram started up and are now estimated to have a value between $0.74 Billion to $48 Billion. Amazingly, the latter figure is Facebook’s market value which has exceeded that of the other social media companies’ market value combined.
The number of employees at Groupon is almost 3 times as that of Facebook’s employee headcount yet it didn’t hinder Facebook from gaining more capital raised compared to all social media companies that started later. Twitter may have grown to be a popular social media site although the capital it raised is still more than a thousand million dollars less compared to what Facebook had achieved.

The gross looking ball of yuck up above is 1 lb. of fat. Everyone wants to get rid of their fat, but the truth is, you could never get rid of all of it. Nor would you want to! In fact, fat is so essential to our health that an average size 10, slim female carries approximately 100,000 calories of fat on her body.
So what’s in a pound of fat? 3,500 calories. It might surprise you what it would take to “burn” those calories through exercise. Let’s say you’re an average male, weighing about 180 lbs. If you run at 6mph (a 10 minute mile) it would take you over 4 hours to burn off a pound of fat! Cycling would take you just as long – over 4 hours. If you want to walk it off, it would take more than 3 times that long – 13 hours AND you’d end up walking about 39 miles. If you prefer yoga, your workout would have to be over 17 hours long!
What does it take to consume 3,500 calories? Not much, it turns out. According to My Fitness Pal’s food calculator, just 1 large french fry from McDonalds every day of the week will do it! At 500 calories per serving, those calories add up fast. Fresh fruits and vegetables don’t have nearly as many calories. To eat just 500 calories of carrots (or strawberries if you’re more a fruit person) you’d have to eat nearly 10 cups of the stuff – that’s more than half a gallon!
You can lose weight by eating right, and reducing your calorie intake. Exercise and strength training can help burn calories and build muscle mass. Did you know muscle and fat both burn calories during the day? The catch is that 1 lb. of muscle burns 7-10 calories compared to the 2-3 calories burned by fat.
Check fraud can occur in a variety of ways through chemical alteration, theft, photocopying, and many more. Here are a few tips for spotting a fake check.
