Buster Brown milestone marks 100 years of Brown Shoe impact
Brown Shoe Co. celebrates a century of Buster Brown branding after licensing the comic character in 1902. The campaign boosted sales from $6 million in 1945 to $30 million in 1954, helped grow Famous Footwear and Naturalizer, and coincided with broader restructuring and a stock near $27 after a 32 percent drop in Q2 earnings to $7.8 million.

Lifetime jobs thing of the past
In Richmond Virginia, former Henrico Authority head says local employers seek PhD level talent while legacy lifetime jobs disappear. Viasystems plant closure in 2001 left 2,350 workers jobless as outsourcing moved work abroad. Now many workers accept temp or on call roles, with some well paid only modest wages, raising concerns over mobility and financial stability.
