Source: WBRC FOX6 News The Birmingham Water Works Board issued a Stage 4 Extreme Drought Emergency on Friday.

Source: SiliconBeat Think of it as the Internet of Wet Things. Picture this: You drive your super-duper new high-tech car into a car wash to get your super-duper high-tech car cleaned.

Managers want to understand how their teams contribute to the organization, and they want to identify high performers and potential leaders along the way.
