CONCORD - Just in time for the season of giving, Kannapolis-based Shoe Show will use its recently approved tax incentive grant to give back to the community.
Here are some of the latest health and medical news developments, compiled by the editors of HealthDay:
ST. LOUIS -- St. Louis-based Brown Shoe Co. is closing two sites in New England, including a distribution center in Dover, N.H. The closings are part of a reorganization plan the company announced Tuesday.
The former indie darlings score with an atmospheric sound and arena vibe. Death Cab for Cutie's indie days are in the rear-view mirror, with its major-label deal, song placement in films and prime-time show The O.C.
As part of a scheme run by Samaritans Purse, pupils filled the shoe boxes with gifts to be distributed to their peers in countries such as Swaziland, India, and countries in Eastern Europe. Children put small gifts and toiletries inside and wrap the boxes in Christmas paper.
Consumer products using extremely small particles of silver to kill germs will need Environmental Protection Agency approval, part of the government's first move to regulate the burgeoning nanotechnology industry. Manufacturers must provide scientific evidence that nanosilver won't harm waterways or public health.
Operating earnings for shoe retailer Famous Footwear rose sharply in the third quarter, fueling a 36 percent jump in profits for its corporate parent.
