Info Liege
Liège is a major city and a municipality in Belgium. It is the main city of the province of the same name, Liège, in Belgium's francophone region of Wallonia.
The city is situated in the valley of the Meuse River, in the east of Belgium, not far from borders with the Netherlands(Maastricht is about 33 km (20.5 mi) to the north) and with Germany (Aachen is about 53 km (32.9 mi) north-east). At Liège the Meuse river meets the river Ourthe. The city is part of the sillon industriel, the former industrial backbone of Wallonia. It still is the principal economic and cultural centre of the region.
The Liège municipality (i.e. the city proper) includes the former communes of Angleur, Bressoux, Chênée, Glain,Grivegnée, Jupille-sur-Meuse, Rocourt, and Wandre. In November 2012, Liège had 198,280 inhabitants. The metropolitan area, including the outer commuter zone, covers an area of 1,879 km2 (725 sq mi) and had a total population of 749,110 on 1 January 2008. This includes a total of 52 municipalities, among others, Herstal and Seraing. Liège ranks as the third most populous urban area in Belgium, after Brussels and Antwerp, and the fourth municipality after Antwerp, Ghent and Charleroi.

Liège (German: Lüttich, Dutch: Luik) is the largest city of Wallonia, the French-speaking part of Belgium, and the capital city of the namesake province. Located at the foot ofArdennes on the river Meuse, it has been a prominent urban centre since the Middle Ages, but really blossomed during the industrial revolution, when it grew to become Belgium's third-largest metropolis, after Brussels and Antwerp. Thanks to its strategic position, Liège still enjoys relative affluence and economic importance, in contrast to its fellow Wallon cities farther south.
Despite its size and location in-between some of the most-visited cities in Europe, Liège sees very little tourist traffic. Those who find it along their itinerary might be surprised to find the purported industrial city to be quite green, with wide boulevards, an interesting, if a bit disorderly, mix of architecture from different periods, much greenery and picturesque riverbanks and hillsides. There are also quite a few museums and other points of interest, enough for at least a busy day trip.
Liège has been an important city since the early Middle Ages. It was the capital of the Principality (prince-bishopric) of Liège, which remained an independent state until the French Revolution (around 1789). In the 19th century it became an early centre of industrialism. Today it is a large city of 200,000 inhabitants, with a total 750,000 in its metropolitan area. The city has an important Italian community, making up 5% of the population.
The central area of Liège presents itself as a rather interesting mix of a historic town centre (dotted with a few extremely brutalist buildings from the 1960s and 70s), a rather elegant new town with wide boulevards, tall apartment buildings (some Art Deco), narrow street with small businesses, a few pretty parks, and a few interesting shopping arcades. The outskirts of Liège consist mainly of 2 very distinctive areas: large industrial complexes sprawling on the river's bank in the north and the south (with the cities of Seraing and Herstal) and working-class areas in the east and the west with mainly spare green neighborhood for healthy people.
Liège is located just at the beginning of the Ardennes, which makes the landscape of the south very different than the rest of the city, with high hills and abundant forests (Sart-tilman and beyond).

Main sights
- The 16th century palace of the Prince-Bishops of Liège is built on the Place St Lambert, where the old St. Lambert's Cathedral used to stand before the French Revolution. An archeological display, theArcheoforum, can be visited under the Place St Lambert.
- The perron on the nearby Place du Marché was once the symbol of justice in the Prince-Bishopric and is now the symbol of the city. It stands in front of the 17th century city hall.
- The present Liège Cathedral, dedicated to Saint Paul, contains a treasury and Saint Lambert's tomb. It is one of the original seven collegiate churches, which include the German-Romanesque St Bartholomew's Church (Saint Barthélémy) and the church of St Martin.
- The church of Saint-James (Saint-Jacques) is probably the most beautiful medieval church in Liège. It is built in the so-called Flamboyant-Gothic style, while the porch is early Renaissance. The statues are by Liège sculptor Jean Del Cour. Saint-Jacques also contains 29 spectacular 14th century misericords.
- The main museums in Liège are: MAMAC (Museum of Modern & Contemporary Art), Museum of Walloon Life, and Museum of Walloon Art & Religious Art (Mosan art). TheGrand Curtius Museum is an elegantly furnished mansion from the 17th century along the Meuse River, housing collections of Egyptology, weaponry, archaeology, fine arts, religious art and Mosan art.
- Other sites of interest include the historical city centre (the Carré), the Hors-Château area, the Outremeuse area, the parks and boulevards along the River Meuse, theCitadel, the 374 steps stairway "Montagne de Bueren", leading from Hors-Château to the Citadel, 'Médiacité' shopping mall designed by Ron Arad Architects and the Liège-Guillemins railway station designed by Santiago Calatrava.
Early Middle Ages
Although settlements already existed in Roman times, the first references to Liège are from 558, when it was known as Vicus Leudicus. Around 705, Saint Lambert of Maastrichtis credited with completing the Christianization of the region, indicating that up to the early 8th-century the religious practices of antiquity had survived in some form. Christian conversion may still not have been quite universal, since Lambert was murdered in Liège and thereafter regarded as a martyr for his faith. To enshrine St. Lambert's relics, his successor, Hubertus (later to become St. Hubert), built a basilica near the bishop's residence which became the true nucleus of the city. A few centuries later, the city became the capital of a prince-bishopric, which lasted from 985 till 1794. The first prince-bishop, Notger, transformed the city into a major intellectual and ecclesiastical centre, which maintained its cultural importance during the Middle Ages. Pope Clement VI recruited several musicians from Liège to perform in the Papal court at Avignon, thereby sanctioning the practice of polyphony in the religious realm. The city was renowned for its many churches, the oldest of which, St Martin's, dates from 682. Although nominally part of the Holy Roman Empire, in practice it possessed a large degree of independence.
Late Middle Ages and Renaissance
The strategic position of Liège has made it a frequent target of armies and insurgencies over the centuries. It was fortified early on with a castle on the steep hill that overlooks the city's western side. In 1345, the citizens of Liège rebelled against Prince-Bishop Engelbert III de la Marck, their ruler at the time, and defeated him in battle near the city. Shortly after, a unique political system formed in Liège, whereby the city's 32 guilds shared sole political control of the municipal government. Each person on the register of each guild was eligible to participate, and each guild's voice was equal, making it the most democratic system that the Low Countries had ever known. The system spread to Utrecht, and left a democratic spirit in Liège that survived the Middle Ages.
At the end of the Liège Wars, a rebellion against rule from Burgundy that figured prominently in the plot of Sir Walter Scott's 1823 novel Quentin Durward, Duke Charles the Bold of Burgundy, witnessed by King Louis XI of France, captured and largely destroyed the city in 1468, after a bitter siege which was ended with a successful surprise attack. Liège was technically still part of the Holy Roman Empire. After 1477, the city came under the rule of the Habsburgs and, after 1555, under Spanish sovereignty, although its immediate rule remained in the hands of its prince-bishops. The reign of Erard de la Marck (1506–1538) coincides with the Renaissance Liégeoise. During the Counter-Reformation, the diocese of Liège was split and progressively lost its role as a regional power. In the 17th century the prince-bishops came from the Bavarian family Wittelsbach. They ruled over Cologne and other bishoprics in the northwest of the Holy Roman Empire as well. During this medieval period, three women from the Liège region made significant contributions to Christian spirituality: Elizabeth Spaakbeek, Christina the Astonishing, and Marie of Oignies.
18th century to World War I
The Duke of Marlborough captured the city from the Bavarian prince-bishop and his French allies in 1704 during the War of the Spanish Succession.
In the middle of the eighteenth century the ideas of the French Encyclopédistes began to gain popularity in the region. Bishop de Velbruck (1772–84), encouraged their propagation, thus prepared the way for the Liège Revolution which started in the episcopal city on 18 August 1789 and led to the creation of the Republic of Liège before it was invaded by counter-revolutionary forces of the Habsburg Monarchy in 1791.
In the course of the 1794 campaigns of the French Revolution, the French army took the city and imposed strongly anticlerical regime, destroying St. Lambert's Cathedral. The overthrow of the prince-bishopric was confirmed in 1801 by the Concordat co-signed byNapoléon Bonaparte and Pope Pius VII. France lost the city in 1815 when the Congress of Vienna awarded it to the United Kingdom of the Netherlands. Dutch rule lasted only until 1830, when the Belgian Revolution led to the establishment of an independent, Catholic and neutral Belgium which incorporated Liège. After this, Liège developed rapidly into a major industrial city which became one of continental Europe's first large-scale steel making centres. The Walloon Jacquerie of 1886 saw a large-scale working class revolt.No less than 6,000 regular troops were called into the city to quell the unrest, while strike spread through the whole sillon industriel.
Liège's fortifications were redesigned by Henri Alexis Brialmont in the 1880s and a chain of twelve forts was constructed around the city to provide defence in depth. This presented a major obstacle to Germany's army in 1914, whose Schlieffen Planrelied on being able to quickly pass through the Meuse valley and the Ardennes en route to France. The German invasion on August 5, 1914 soon reached Liège, which was defended by 30,000 troops under General Gérard Leman . The forts initially held off an attacking force of about 100,000 men but were pulverised into submission by a five-day bombardment by the Germans' 42 cm Big Berthahowitzers. Due to faulty planning of the protection of the underground defense tunnels beneath the main citadel, one direct artillery hit caused a huge explosion, which eventually led to the surrender of the Belgian forces. The Belgian resistance was shorter than had been intended, but the twelve days of delay caused by the siege nonetheless contributed to the eventual failure of the German invasion of France. The city was subsequently occupied by the Germans until the end of the war. Liège received the Légion d'Honneur for its resistance in 1914.
World War II to the present
The Germans returned in 1940, this time taking the forts in only three days. Most Jews were saved, with the help of the sympathising population, as many Jewish children and refugees were hidden in the numerous monasteries. The German occupiers were expelled by the Allies of World War II in September 1944 but Liège was subsequently subjected to intense aerial bombardment, with more than 1,500 V-1 and V-2missiles landing in the city between its liberation and the end of the war.
After the war ended, the Royal Question came to the fore, since many saw king Leopold III as collaborating with the Germans during the war. In July 1950, André Renard, leader of the Liégeois FGTB launched the General strike against Leopold III of Belgium and "seized control over the city of Liège". The strike ultimately led to Leopold's abdication.
Liège began to suffer from a relative decline of its industry, particularly the coal industry, and later the steel industry, producing high levels of unemployment and stoking social tension. During the 1960-1961 Winter General Strike, disgruntled workers went on a rampage and severely damaged the central railway station Guillemins. The unrest was so intense that "army troops had to wade through caltrops, trees, concrete blocks, car and crane wrecks to advance. Streets were dug up. Liège saw the worst fighting on 6 January 1961. In all, 75 people were injured during seven hours of street battles."
Liège is also known as a traditionally socialist city. In 1991, powerful Socialist André Cools, a former Deputy Prime Minister, was gunned down in front of his girlfriend's apartment. Many suspected that the assassination was related to a corruption scandal which swept the Socialist Party, and the national government in general, after Cools' death. Two men were sentenced to twenty years in jail in 2004, for involvement in Cools' murder.
Liège has shown some signs of economic recovery in recent years with the opening up of borders within the European Union, surging steel prices, and improved administration. Several new shopping centres have been built, and numerous repairs carried out.
On 13 December 2011, there was a grenade and gun attack at Place Saint-Lambert. An attacker, later identified as Nordine Amrani, aged 33, armed with grenades and an assault rifle, was reported as having attacked people waiting at the bus stop shortly before 1:30 p.m. CET. Six fatalities were reported, including the attacker (who shot himself), and 123 people were reported injured, among them a two-year-old child who sustained life-threatening injuries. Police reported that the situation was "under control" by 2:50 p.m.

Liège is the most important city of the Wallon region from an economic perspective. In the past, Liège was one of the most important industrial centres in Europe, particularly in steel-making. Starting in 1817, John Cockerill extensively developed the iron and steel industry. The industrial complex of Seraing was the largest in the world. It once boasted numerous blast furnaces and mills. Liège has also been an important centre for gunsmithing since the Middle ages and the arms industry is still strong today, with the headquarters of FN Herstal and CMI Defence being located in Liège. Although from 1960 on the secondary sector is going down and now is a mere shadow of its former self, the manufacture of steel goods remain important.
The economy of the region is now diversified; the most important centres are: Mechanical industries (Aircraft engine and Spacecraft propulsion), space technology, information technology, biotechnologyand the production of water, beer or chocolate. Liège has an important group of headquarters dedicated to high-technology, such as Techspace Aero, which manufactures pieces for the Airbus A380 or the rocket Ariane 5. Other stand-out sectors include Amóswhich manufactures optical components for telescopes and Drytec, fabric of compressed air dryers. Liège also has many other electronic companies such as SAP, EVS, Gillam,AnB, Balteau, IP Trade. Other prominent businesses are the global leader in light armament FN Herstal, the beer company Jupiler, the chocolate company Galler, and the water and soda companies Spa and Chaudfontaine. A science park south east of the city, near the University of Liège campus, houses spin-offs and high technology businesses.

Transportation - Get In
By plane
- Liège airport Specialising in freight (7th biggest cargo airport in Europe), the airport sees mainly seasonal holiday charter flights to destinations around the Mediterranean. Regular passenger connections are provided by local Belgian airline VLM and some other airlines like BMI seeking opportunities to capitalize on local business interests (and charging accordingly). Reaching the city centre with public transportation is a bit tricky. Check the TEC (local city bus) website for further information.
- Brussels Airport is your most likely point of entry into Belgium. To reach Liège, take the train to Louvain/Leuven, or Brussels-Nord and change for Liège.
- Brussels South Charleroi Airport , located in Charleroi, is an alternative for low-cost airlines such as Ryanair and WizzAir. From the airport, take the city bus Line A (stop is outside of the departure hall), which costs €3 one way to Charleroi-Sud (south) train station, then the train to Liège-Guillemins. Train departs once every hour from 5AM. Last train leaves at 23:00. The trip takes approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes.
- Maastricht Airport is also close to the city. Ryanair has some service from the city (a lot less than Charleroi though). Transportation to Liège can be done by train.
- Frankfurt Airport has a thrice daily direct high-speed train link to Liège-Guillemins. More frequencies can be found if you make a stop in Cologne.
By Train
Liège-Guillemins is the main station, located on the southwest part of the city. Thalys and ICE high-speed trains serve Brussels, Paris, Aachen,Cologne and Frankfurt. Beware that unlike most train stations in Belgium, Liège-Guillemins is not a walking distance away from the city centre (20-25min). You can take a bus which cost €1.40 one way, or taxi which cost around 8-10 euros. The cheapest alternative being changing to another train that's heading to the station called "Liège-Palais". The fare of this trip is included in your ticket to Liège-Guillemins. The trip takes around 6 mins.
From Brussels, intercity service runs at least hourly and takes about 60 minutes from Brussels Nord. From Brussels Airport, take the airport shuttle to Leuven and take intercity service from there. From the Netherlands, connect in Maastricht. Trains run at least hourly and take about 30 minutes.
Once you are at Liège-Guillemins station, you can get to city centre by changing to a train heading for Gare du Palais, or by taking the number 1 or number 4 bus just outside the station to Place St. Lambert. Another alternative is route 48 which takes you to the Opera. Note that all routes run both ways at the stop of Liège-Guillemins station, make sure to take the buses that have either "Pl. St. Lambert" or "Opera" on their destination sign. Like aforementioned, change train to Liège-Palais station also takes you directly to centre.
By Bus
Liège is well-connected by bus, notably in the Eurolines network on rue des Guillemins, near the train station.
By Car
Liège is the crossroads for several major motorways. Its "ring" has 6 branches in clockwise order:
- the E25, to the south, towards Luxembourg and into France via Metz, Nancy, Lyon
- the E42, to the west, crosses Wallonia via Mons/Bergen before entering France via Valenciennes, Paris
- the E40, to the west, leading to the Belgian coast via Brussels
- the E313, leading to Antwerp and on to the large coastal cities of the Netherlands
- the E25, to the north, with Maastricht a stone's throw away (30 km) and the rest of the Netherlands beyond
- the E40, to the east, entering Germany via Aachen. A second branch (Actually the E42) splits off at Verviers, heading to Trier.
Since it is a fairly large city, many motorway exits are signposted for "Liège". When coming from Germany or Netherlands, follow the E25 to its end, then follow the road signs to the center. If you are coming from Luxembourg, exit at "Angleur" and follow signs to the center, or to continue on to the exit marked "Liège-centre". Finally, coming from Paris,Lille, Brussels, or Antwerp, follow signs to Luxembourg until you reach the exit marked "Liège-centre." When coming from Flanders, Liège is named as "Luik."
There are a number of covered car parks situated conveniently in the centre costing €2.20 an hour.
By boat
Individuals arriving with their own boat are welcome at the port des Yachts.
Many organised cruises departing from Maastricht stop in the center of Liège, on the right bank (quai Marcatchou to quai Van Beneden).
Transportation - Get Around
By bus
TEC is the main bus company. Most lines converge towards one of the city-center bus "terminals." These terminals are located at Gare Léopold, Place Saint-Lambert, Place de la République Française, and around the Opéra/Theater (all the four are very close to one another). The names of these five sites are used to indicate the direction of the bus, according to the line taken.
Several other lines leave from the train station Liège-Guillemins. Among them, two lines link the station with city center: the #4, a circular line (direction "Bavière" to go from the station to the center, direction "d'Harscamp" for the reverse trip), and the #1 which runs train station to city center and on to Coronmeuse. There also is a few lines that start from the intersection of the Boulevard d'Avroy and the "Pont d'Avroy", the main shopping street. Unfortunately, however, few lines run after midnight.
More and more bus stops now show the waiting time for the next bus on each line, and many busses are equipped to display the next stop and adapted for people with reduced mobility. Nevertheless, be aware that the next stop screens are not always synchronised with the bus stops. For people using a bus line they're not familiar with, ask the driver to warn you when you are arriving at the bus stop you are looking for. You can ask for a free printed version of each bus schedule at the terminal of the line.
By car
Unlike most Belgian cities, Liège has no an inner ring built along the path of the old city walls. Instead, the main streets were laid out along the old branches of the river, which makes their organisation a bit obscure.
Leave your car in one of the city-center parking garages, especially if you have no map of to your destination.
Here are the main routes for cars:
- the motorway E40-E25 that crosses parts of the city
- the Boulevards "d'Avroy" and "de la Sauvenière", the main route between the center and the train station
- the Quais "de la Meuse" and "de la Dérivation", which link to/from the two branches of the E25
By bike
Travelling by bike in the city center is easy, but the hillsides can be a bit steep (between 5 and 15%). Reaching the higher neighborhoods will require a bit of training and a multi-speed bike!
Cycling paths are regularly added and improved, though the main roads remain a bit dangerous. Most one-way streets can be travelled in the opposite direction by cyclists. A map of cycling paths is available at the tourist information office. In addition, there's a "Ravel" (a path for walkers and cyclists) along the right bank of the river Meuse.
By foot
Most of the areas in city center are easily accessible on foot, and walking provides an interesting perspective on the city itself. The trip from the train station at Guillemins to the city center requires a bit more timeL about 30 min.
- Sunday morning market at la rive gauche
- The Marché de la Batte is where most locals visit on Sundays. The one of the longest markets in Europe stretches along the Meuse River by the Université de Liège and attracts many visitors to Liège. The market typically runs from early morning to 2 o'clock in the afternoon every weekend year long. Produce, clothing, and snack vendors are the main concentration of the market.
- Flea Markets at Saint Gilles (every Saturday morning on Boulevard Louis Hillier) and Saint Pholien (every Friday morning on Boulevard de la Constitution) also attract many visitors.
Typical purchases
- Val Saint Lambert crystal, now sold throughout the world, makes an exceptional gift in the "splurge" category.
- The tourist information office sells local artists' products including scarfs with medieval motifs and ties with contemporary artistic designs.
- Marionnettes of "Tchantchès", a character from local folklore embodying the Liégeois attitude, are available in the 6 marionette theaters in the city.
Other typical purchases are food and drink products:
- As elsewhere in Belgium, pralines (filled chocolates) and the numerous cheeses and beers are a must.
- Local products include "Herve" cheese (with a strong smell!), "Sirop de Liège" (made from a mix of apples and pears and typically used for cooking/baking), and cider (the alcoholic kind).
- "Pèkèt" (genièvre) is an alcoholic beverage available in countless varieties.
- For sweets, you can't go far without encountering the famous Liège waffles, smelling of cinnamon and sugar. They're best when freshly-cooked, though the pre-packaged variety also exists and has spread to many other countries.
- Other sweets are available depending on the season: boûkètes (dark crêpes with raisins, eaten with brown sugar) are mainly available for 15 August and at Christmas, while lacquemants/lackmans (dry waffles filled with a mix of sugar and other sweets) are found at the fairs.
- If you find them, try "cûtès peûres" (baked pears), which unfortunately seems to have disappeared from the street vendors.
- Liège coffee (café liégeois) is originally from Vienna but was rebaptised by the Parisiens to show their support for the heroic resistance in Liège at the start of the first world war.
Shopping in city center
The best options for shopping are around Place Cathédrale and Place Saint Lambert, and in particular at Vinâve d'Ile (Celio...), Saint-Michel (Van den Borre, Delhaize, C&A), the Opera Galleries (Zara, Springfield) and the Saint Lambert Galleries (FNAC, Média Markt, Inno, Champion), as well as along the roads towards the center (rues Féronstrée, Saint-Gilles, Puits-en-Sock in Outremeuse, Grétry in Longdoz...)
Shopping outside city center
Several large commercial centers are located on the outskirts of the city:
- Belle-Ile, Quai des Vennes 1 (take bus 377 from the Opera) (Angleur)).North-American style shopping mall with Carrefour on site
- Médiacité shopping centre, Boulevard Raymond Poincaré 7 (easily accessible by car (with on-site carparking) or bus - 4, 26, 26, 31, 17, 29, 33, 35, 38B (Pont Longdoz stop), Rocourt, Boncelles, Herstal...). 126 stores
- Hypermarkt Carrefour HERSTAL, Rue Basse Campagne 1, Herstal. Large supermarket. Has a small international section (Italian,Spain,USA,UK,Asia,North Africa) for those missing things from home.
Regional specialities include:
- boulets sauce-lapin, meatballs in a sauce made from Sirop de Liège, onions, vinegar and prunes, accompanied of course by frites - french fries. The boulet even has its own critics and reviews.
- la potée liégeoise, a country dish made from beans, potatoes, and bacon bits cooked together and drenched in vinegar.
- les boûkètes, dark crêpes served at New Year's Eve or other festive occasions
- le matoufèt, a cross between a crêpe and an omelette, made from flour, eggs, milk and bacon bits, and served either salty or sweet.
- la tarte au riz, originally from the neighboring city of Verviers or the area of Tancrémont
Other local recipes are available online.
Prices unfortunately are fairly high, as in most other Belgian cities. Budget restaurants will cost about €12-€15 per person, drinks included, mid-range restaurants between €25 and €50, and splurge restaurants well over that!
For budget solutions, snack shops like any of the sanwicheries or kebab shops offer cheap yet tasty food. A Döner kebab typically costs 3-5 euro, and a sandwich is around 2-4. Note that in Liège all snack shops charge 50 cents for sauce, and usually another 50 cents for vegetables. For example you can see a meatball sandwich for 2 euro on the price list, however; after the sauce and the vegetables it will be 3 euro in total. It is recommended to look for convenient stores for soft drinks as they're over-priced in snack bars.
Obtaining meals outside of conventional times can be a challenge, many restaurant do not serve been 2 and 6 in the afternoon, those that do tend to be full and you can expect to wait some time for service.
There are Northern American fastfood chain in the city: A McDonald's is located near the Opera, a BigMac meal is about €6, a Subway can be found behind the city hall, and a Pizza Hut can be found near the Opera.

Sights & Landmarks
Historic Centre
Place St. Lambert is a major square in the centre, where a number of key sights may be found. It was the site of Gothic Cathedral of Our Lady and St (Cathédrale Notre-Dame-et-Saint-Lambert), representation of religious power, torn down at the start of the 19th century after the revolution of Liège and today memorialized by metal columns and a design traced on the ground.

- Philharmonic Orchestra.
- Royal Opera (Opéra Royal de Wallonie), Place de l'Opéra,+32 4 221 47 22.
- Theater de la Place.
- Liège is the European city with the most theaters per person. Liège has an international reputation especially for its marionnette theaters, whose performances often involve the traditional folklore character Tchantchès in an unbelievably wide range of situations. The most-known marionnette theaters can be found at:
- Museum of Wallonian Life (Wednesdays and school holidays at 1430 and Sundays at 1030, Cour des Mineurs, +32 (0)4 237 9040, open even when the museum is closed.)
- Museum of Tchantchès (Oct to end Apr, Sundays at 1030 and Wednesdays at 1430, rue Surlet 56, +32 (0)4 342 7575)
- Theater Al Botroule, Rue Hocheporte 3, +32 4 223 0576. literally, "in the belly-button"
- Theater Denis, Rue Sainte Marguerite 302, +32 4 224 3154.
- Theater Mabotte, Rue Mabotte 125, Seraing, +32 4 233 8861.
- Movie theaters include Le Parc and Le Churchill for European films; Le Palace and Kinepolis for big-name blockbusters; and soon UGC Longdoz in the future "media city".
- Le Forum, rue Pont d'Avroy 45. a small but exceptionally-decorated venue, offers concerts, comedy performances, etc. Country Hall (in the outskirts) is a relatively new venue for huge shows and sporting events.
- Le Trocadéro. is the most Liégeois of Parisian cabarets, or the most Parisian of Liège cabarets, depending on how you look at it, while two other venues (La Bouch'rit and le Comiqu'Art) offer dinner-show combinations.
- La Zone (Music club), Quai de l'Ourthe, 42 - 4020, +32 4 3410727, e-mail:[email protected]. is the place in Liège for alternative and underground music and arts. Opens only on events, check their program on the web before going there. Non expensive bar with plenty of soft drinks, beers and wine.
- There are numerous sports clubs including, oddly enough, three different rowing clubs. RCAE, a university club but open to everyone, offers a range of sports from parachuting to spelunking. The sports fields at Xhovémont, Cointe or Sart Tilman are ideal for practice, while the soccer stadium of Standard (the Liège team) is the place to show your enthusiasm as a fan. The ice rink, dating from the water exposition of 1939, is in its last seasons before being moved, while a new swimming pool with modern facilities including a diving tower will soon be constructed in the center. (The previous one is being converted to a museum.) Other pools are spread throughout the city, notably in Outremeuse.
- For those who prefer a calmer sport, cycling or jogging is perfect along the quays of the Meuse. The woods at Coteaux de la Citadelle, Chartreuse, and Sart Tilman are all close, as are the magnificent countrysides of the Ardennes (with Condroz, Hesbaye, and Herve lending themselves particularly well to hiking and mountain-biking).
- A circuit is dedicated to Simenon (author of the Maigret stories), and a museum will be opening shortly.
Festivals and events
- The Feast of the Assumption (15 August) is celebrated here by the entire city and countless visitors.
- The celebrations of 15 August in Outremeuse welcome more than 300,000 people each year.
- The fair, held since the city was established, has become a fun-fair. It takes place from the first weekend in October to the second weekend in November (6 weeks).
- The Christmas Village, one of the biggest and oldest in the country, has more than one million visitors each year.
- The Celebrations of Wallonia (2nd weekend in September), the nuit des Coteaux (night events in the historic center), the Secret Gardens and Corners Day (la journée Jardins et Coins secrets - 3rd Sunday in June), and the heritage days (les journées du patrimoine - end September) are other key dates in Liège.
- The Festival of Walking, in the second half of August, offers urban walks.
The area known as "Le Carré" offers numerous options to drink and party 365 days per year, with a young, vibrant, student atmosphere. Also worth a visit: the trendier Place du Marché, and the area around Place Cathédrale, to see and be seen.
- Le Vaudrée 2, Rue Saint-Gilles. where you can taste a good thousand or so Belgian and foreign beers. Santé!
- La Maison du Péquet (behind the town hall). mainly serves fruit-flavored versions of genièvre, known locally as péquet.
- Pot au Lait, rue Soeurs de Hasque. is a café popular with exchange students living in the region.
- Les Olivettes, rue Pied du Pont des Arches. offers an ambience from an entirely different time.
- Millennium (about 10 km outside the center in the commercial area "Boncelles").nightclub.
- La Zone, Quai de l'Ourthe, 42 (Outremeuse). is a club for alternative and underground music and culture with a non expensive bar
- Le Sabor Latino. is a club opening onto the boulevard de la Sauvenière.
In addition, many of the cafés in the Le Carré area are a good alternative, with plenty of dancing and typically no entrance fee.
Safety in Liege
Liège is generally a safe city during daytime. However, be cautious at night especially for single females. It is not recommended for women to walk alone in the evenings as many foreign female students have experienced being followed late at night. Robbery is rare but harassment to single females occurs often, mostly verbal but some travelers have experienced assaults in off-downtown area. If where you're staying is more than a 5-min walk off the centre, it is suggested to take a cab (they have a line-ups around The Opera and Pont d'Avroy bus terminal) after 10PM.

Imagine what it would be like if you had one of those out-of-body experiences, but over a worship service. Instead of hovering at the ceiling in an emergency room where you look down on your body laid out on a gurney being zapped with paddles from the crash cart, imagine you are floating above the church worship center on a given Sunday and you get to observe worship and worshipers, including yourself, only from the outside. Do you think you would be questioning what the people including yourself are feeling? What if your position outside the church looking in on worship placed you where if you looked one direction you saw the church at worship and the other direction you saw a bright reflection and a silhouette of Jesus, knowing the Father is there as well, although you could not see Him?
As you look down on worship what would you likely be thinking? Do you think our declarations like this one below would be convincing?
"Worship is all about God. It's not about me."
- If we were looking in from the outside would our worship practice show us to be truly concerned with God's glory? Would you see your church and you determined that God's narrative be told and retold and that He would be the center of our activities in gathered worship?
- Would the worshipers be answering Jesus' prayer recorded in John 17, that we would be one in unity?
- Would worship show us honoring others above ourselves? (Rom 12:10)
If you were the one planning and guiding worship for your church and then were hovering above the sanctuary during worship would you be confident, knowing God is looking on? What do you think He might say about the amount of scripture being read in the worship? How do you think He might respond to the songs and the singing? As you think in your own mind about floating around that room what do you see reflected on the faces of individual worshipers? What is the sense of hospitality being expressed to each other and to those who are visiting and know little about worship, or about God? Does the worship and the environment do much to make much of what God has done in the past? Is there a recapitulation of God's story of the world in creation, calling to Himself a people, incarnation when Jesus was born, died and was raised from the dead? As you look upon the room of worshipers is there a sense of anticipation of Jesus' return? Does the tone of the singing and the content of the songs as well as the spoken message include a sense of certain victory and triumph? Is there an atmosphere where response is expected and strongly encouraged? If you are observing a revivalist atmosphere what do you see in the time offered for public response? If you are observing a Eucharist is there a sense of covenant and thanksgiving in taking the bread and the cup?
Imagining the out-of-body experience may seem silly, but it could be helpful to give a notion of the important question for gathered worship, "What are we doing here?" I am fascinated to read about worship, whether it is the glimpses we have from the New Testament, or the description from the 2nd Century words of Justin Martyr's First Apology where he was clearing up rumors that had even caused persecutions based on misunderstanding that in worship Christians sacrificed an infant and drank its blood and ate its flesh. I am convicted when reading the God-centeredness of liturgies recorded from Eastern or Western traditions through history, and prayerful as to how the Holy Spirit might lead us in our day toward a much clearer centralization in a Trinitarian worship shaped by holy scripture. I am strengthened reading of Reformation worship and seeing the pursuit of adherence to scripture. When I read about worship during periods of awakening or about the work of some gifted evangelists I am inspired to reflect on personal spiritual commitments made in church revival worship. Reading about movements under dynamic preachers like Spurgeon, Moody, and Billy Graham causes me to yearn for next generation evangelists. In a sense, these observations might be compared to the imagination exercise I mentioned before. Perhaps it would good for us to occasionally exercise our imagination in this way as one means of assessment as to our worship atmosphere, and the role we play in it. After all, God really is looking on, but more than that, worship is about and for Him, and He really is there with us.Explore posts in the same categories: Church Music, Congregational Singing, Leading Worship, Singing Worship, Spiritual formation through singing, Worship Leaders, Worship Pastors, Worship Reminders, Worship theology, Worship thoughts, Youth Worship

j31 needed a new other design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 170 designs submitted by 8 freelance designers.
Micronet Communications, Inc.
We are a Frequency Coordination company that helps Wireless ISPs, Utility Providers and TelCo's find licensed microwave frequencies to establish wireless data networks. Think of your cell phone and using the internet on there. There's a wireless backhaul that data comes from. We do that. While Frequency Coordination and FCC Licensing is our primary business, we also do Frequency Protection (preventing interference), where we monitor, review and respond to other companies looking to establish networks within range of our protection clients networks. Our full range of services can be found on our website: http://www.micronetcom.com. The demographic that we'll be going after is 30-50 yr old men and women (mostly men) running Wireless ISPs. Most of these people are engineers or have backgrounds in engineering but run their companies.
There are a couple things that are going to be designed in this package:
-Footprint cut-out with our logo and maybe a couple words that fit within a 1 foot x 1 foot square (look down at your feet and draw a line around your foot and toes, that's the footprint that needs to fit inside the 1x1 square and then our logo needs to go in the footprint)
-Mini Prize Drop Sections (Look in Attachments)
-Tri-Fold Brochure
-Front and Back Flyer (8x11) that can be converted to a PDF too
To check out our brand colors, go to this website: http://www.micronetcom.com/brandgui…olors.html
Please stay within the logo brand colors. Thanks.
The Tri-Fold Brochure has the words already loaded up and the text is aligned in the way that allows us to not have very many problems with printing. I'm not sure if that makes a difference when creating things for you guys. Ideally, we'd like to see the brochure mimic the style and color of our booth. I've attached that design file so you can utilize what needs to be utilized there. Everything in the files we have the copyright to and full control to use in any way we want.
The PDF Flyer can use the same text as what's in the brochure. The layout and design of that is really up to you, as long as it's not too dissimilar from the Tri-Fold Brochure's style and color which should mimic our booth.
For the Plinko Board (Mini Prize Drop), the prizes are going to be in order from left to right: (1) Free Hat, (2) Picture with Jeremy, (3) Buy One Get One *Max 3, (4) Frequency Protection 1 year, (5) 1/2 Price Single Path, (6) Pint Glass (7) Picture with Jeremy, (8) Free Hat
The goal is to have all our marketing collateral be similar in style so it's one message, image or color that they associate with us. The Tri-Fold is something that will be tangible that would be given away at conferences, trade shows or client meetings. The flyer is something that we're going to use when emailing prospective clients about our services.
The engineer team has all their individual pictures in here. I'd like to see if you can put them together in a single picture with a great background. There are multiple pictures of each engineer so you have more to work with if one picture isn't what you need. Please message me ASAP if you need a different picture or have an idea that requires another picture in a different way. Thanks.

SACRAMENTO — Mikus Losbergs, Hermont Legaspi, Johannes Gjerdaker, Louis Chabut and Donald Hall were each victorious in singles play to lead the Hornets to a 6-1 win over Northern Colorado on Saturday afternoon at the Sacramento State Tennis Courts.
With the victory, the Hornets conclude the regular season with a three-game winning streak while improving to 9-11 overall and 7-3 in the Big Sky Conference. Sacramento State will assume the No. 3 seed at next week's Big Sky Tournament in Phoenix, Ariz., and will play the No. 6 seed against an opponent still to be determined. The top two seeds (Northern Arizona, Southern Utah) will receive a first round bye at the tournament which takes place April 25-27.
Sacramento State has made a big jump this year after finishing in seventh place and failing to qualify for last year's six-team Big Sky postseason tournament. The Hornets wrapped up the regular season with a 3-0 homestead, which included 6-1 victories over Weber State and Idaho State a week ago.
With the loss, Northern Colorado dropped to 11-12 overall and 3-7 in league play. Sacramento State seniors Losbergs, Hall, Dom Miller and Bernardo Moraes played for the final time in their careers at home, and were honored for their contributions to the program prior to the match.
Each of the Hornets' five singles wins came in straight sets, including Losbergs who posted a commanding 6-1, 6-0 victory over Kyle Pease at No. 1. Also winning in straight sets were Legaspi at No. 2 (6-0, 3-2, ret.), Gjerdaker at No. 4 (6-1, 6-1), Chabut at No. 5 (6-3, 3-1, ret.) and Hall at No. 6 (7-6, 7-6).
Legaspi won his fourth straight singles match, while Chabut , Gjerdaker and Hall have each won three straight.
In doubles play, the tandems of Losbergs/Chabut (7-5 at No. 1), and Legaspi/Dom Miller (6-3 at No. 3) each won to help the Hornets pick up the doubles point.
"Our guys played well on Senior Day, and I was happy how hard everyone competed," Sacramento State head coach Kevin Kurtz said. "Mikus played one of the best matches of his career, and the team winning three straight is a great way to enter next week's Big Sky Tournament. We are excited about the postseason, and looking forward to the challenge."
The Hornets will begin Big Sky Tournament play on Thursday in Phoenix against an opponent and time to be determined.

Richard Kalinoski's 1995 play Beast on the Moon is about surviving. Its two leads, Armenian-American lovers burdened with pain, loss and the guilt of not being among 1.5 million murdered in the genocide by Turkey, respond as if directed by ghosts, tradition, a vividly undead past, so that their feeble if sincere efforts to create new life make them seem like sadistically manipulated puppets, victims in their own ways. An avuncular narrator guides us, and them, through a real-life drama whose truths a contemporary audience knows are still being struggled with. Discounted tickets for tonight's preview at Long Beach's International City Theatre.

Keyword Research Methodology
Any good SEO company or consultant is going to tell you that keyword research may be one of the most important things you do for your SEO. The keywords you target will directly affect what searches you rank for and what kind of traffic will be directed to your site. Failing to include the right keywords means missing out on potential traffic.
Here is the process that I use for conducting keyword research for my clients. I hope you find it useful for your own.
Step One: Read Your Content
Keyword research is done on a page-by-page basis. Search engines rank individual pages, not sites as a whole. Each page will have its own set of keywords that directly relate to the content of that page. Before you start your keyword research, read each page carefully and take notes about what that content is about.
Step Two: Check Your Analytics
Before you start changing keywords, you need some idea of what ones currently work and don't work for each page. You should have signed up for Google Webmaster Tools (if you haven't you really need to), which can help you determine what keywords are leading people to your site and which pages they are coming in through. This is important because you don't want to accidentally remove keywords that were helping drive traffic to your site.
Step Three: Use a Keyword Research Tool to Create a Keyword List
Once you've determined what your content is about and what keywords are currently working for that page, you need to come up with several related variations of that keyword. Different people will search with different terms, and you want to make sure your site shows up for those searches as well.
3A: I'm a fan of the Google Keyword Research Tool .This (free) tool uses Google data to determine related searches. It also shows you the search volume for those variations. Keywords with a high search volume are more competitive.
3B: For this example, plug "wholesale restaurant supply store" into the Keyword Research tool. If you aren't logged in to an AdWords account, Google will only display 100 variations. (If you are logged in, you'll see that there are 800 variations!). Make sure you've selected the United States and English as your parameters.
3C: Above the keywords you have the option to download the list. You want to export them to Excel, so choose the CSV for Excel option.
3D: The list will have 4 columns (keyword, competition, global monthly searches and local monthly searches). You only need the keyword column and local (meaning United States) monthly searches.
Step Four: Scrub Your List
Scrubbing is the most important step of keyword research. Obviously there is no way you can target 800 different keywords, so you need to trim your list way down. Going keyword by keyword, you need to determine if that keyword is relevant to the content on the page! Here is a sample of a scrubbed and non-scrubbed list for "wholesale restaurant supply store."
wholesale restaurant supply store
restaurant supply
restaurant wholesale supply
wholesale restaurant equipment
restaurant supply store
restaurants supplies
wholesale restaurant supplies
restaurant supply stores
restaurant supply los angeles
restaurant supplies
restaurant supply dallas
wholesale restaurant supply
restaurant supply san diego
used restaurant supplies
restaurant supplies and equipment
restaurant supply portland oregon

restaurant equipment supply
used restaurant equipment for sale
restaurant supplies store
restaurant supplies dishes
japanese restaurant supply
restaurant equipment leasing
restaurant equipment supplies
hotel & restaurant supply
restaurant supplies wholesale
restaurant food supply
restaurant supply company
wholesale restaurant supply store
restaurant supply
restaurant wholesale supply
wholesale restaurant equipment
restaurant supply store
wholesale restaurant supplies
restaurant supply stores
wholesale restaurant supply
restaurant supplies and equipment
restaurant equipment supply
restaurant supplies store
restaurant supplies wholesale
Now the scrubbed list is still a little too long, so you need to trim it down even more. A good rule of thumb is to go after 2-5 keywords per page.
Do this process two or three times per page, changing up the keyword each time. For instance, the second list I create would use "restaurant equipment supply store" and the third list would use "restaurant supplies distributor" as the starting keyword. After scrubbing those lists down, you can create a final master list that has the best and most relevant keywords from all three variations. Now you need to scrub that master list down to your best 2-5 keywords.

Tory men must change attitude to women – Bernard Jenkin BBC News Writing in the House magazine, Bernard Jenkin said many Tory men feel "women's issues" should be left to women "so men can get on with running the country".
The lack of women in the upper reaches of government and the party was proof of the culture change needed, he added.
"We have perhaps yet to understand what change in the Conservative Party really means," he claimed.
Monday's coalition reshuffle was seen as an attempt to boost the proportion of female ministers in government and to promote more women to senior positions.
Among those to get promotions were Esther McVey, Jane Ellison and Nicky Morgan.
Top Tory Attack Party's 'Sexist' Culture Sky News A senior Conservative MP has launched an attack on the sexist culture within his party, warning that it demeans female colleagues and alienates women voters.
Bernard Jenkin said in The House Magazine that "many of us Tory men tend to feel that women can deal with 'women's issues', so men can get on with running the country".
The Tory MP for Harwich and North Essex, who chairs the public administration select committee, said even David Cameron was guilty of "unconscious slights to women".
Mr Jenkin told Sky News he could not exempt himself from such "condescension".
Men sometimes ignored women without meaning to, he added, saying it was important to talk about the issue and correct each other.
This Is What A (Male) Feminist Looks Like Bustle Though male feminism is a divisive topic, I'm always enthused when men self-identify as feminists. The more men don't publicly fear the feminist label, the more other boys and men will be able to stop seeing feminism as some sort of threatening, man-hating, matriarchy-promoting agenda. People like to say that making feminism friendly for men isn't the point, and of course not. But making gender equality palatable to all of us is, or should be. …
Key jobs for female MPs in big reshuffle Eastwood Advertiser As the heavyweight political parties shuffled their packs this week, both Labour and the Conservatives turned to Eastwood and Kimberley's female MPs.
On a day of movement on both sides of the House, Labour leader Ed Miliband promoted Eastwood politician Gloria De Piero to his Shadow Cabinet as the new Shadow Minister for Women and Equalities.
Rival David Cameron broke new ground by making Broxtowe's Anna Soubry, who serves Kimberley, the first female Member of Parliament to become a Minister of Defence (MoD).
She heads to the defence headquarters on the banks of the Thames from her previous position as a health minister.
Sunderland's MPs win promotion in Ed Miliband's Labour reshuffle Sunderland Echo WEARSIDE women have a new campaigner in their corner as Sunderland's MPs win promotion in Parliament.
Washington and Sunderland West MP Sharon Hodgson has been asked by Labour leader Ed Miliband to take on a wide-ranging role as a spokeswoman on women, families and equality issues.
Meanwhile, Houghton and Sunderland South MP Bridget Phillipson has been made a Labour whip, and there was a promotion for Sunderland Central MP Julie Elliott, who joined Labour's frontbench shadowing the department for energy and climate change.
In her new role as Shadow Women and Equalities Minister, Mrs Hodgson will work with Ashfield MP Gloria De Piero on holding Government departments to account for the impact of policies and spending reductions, and to lead the Labour Party's policy review on discrimination against and support for new mums.
The Conservative Party needs more women ministers to become … The Economist BY THE standards of the Conservative Party, October 7th was a good day for women. In his second ministerial reshuffle, David Cameron increased the number in his coalition government by four. He also made a couple of groundbreaking hires: sending Nicky Morgan to the Treasury, where there was no woman minister, and making Anna Soubry the first female defence minister. Yet this progress was a good deal less than the Tory prime minister once promised.
Athena SWAN gender equity charter spreads across sector Times Higher Education The mention of Athena SWAN at this year's Conservative Party conference is a timely indicator of how far the once-tiny gender equity charter scheme has come and its growing influence within academia.
Having announced £200 million of new capital funding for teaching science, technology, engineering and mathematics subjects, David Willetts, the universities and science minister, said he expected to see "evidence of commitment to equality and diversity" furnished by those making bids for the cash.
"Some version of Athena SWAN" showing institutional strategies for achieving gender equity in STEM departments "will focus minds", Mr Willetts added.
Half-naked FEMEN activists take on Spanish Congress euronews A group of three topless female activists from protest group FEMEN interrupted the plenary session of the Spanish Congress shouting "abortion is sacred". During their protest the women took off their shirts revealing their breasts, now a trademark feature of FEMEN protests.
Animal welfare top concern for female activists online – above … Telegraph.co.uk 'Animals' is the top issue that women take action on at Change.org, the website which allows anybody to start or sign a petition, figures show. An analysis of the top five issues which matter most to women, conducted on behalf of Telegraph Wonder Women, puts animal welfare above basic human needs, with 'human rights' and 'health' fourth and fifth respectively. Criminal justice and economic justice are second and third place, the poll reveals.
World Bank report indicates US women still have a way to go to … The Castlegar Source Tuesday, World Bank released the 2012 World Development Report on Gender Equality and Development. The United States is referred to many times, often as a benchmark to foster understanding of recent gains for women in other parts of the globe. At the same time, United States women still lag behind US men in a number of areas.
In 2012, the authors note women in the United States still face challenges economically and socially. They are represented disproportionately in certain professions like teaching and nursing. They are paid less than their male counterparts. Jobs traditionally held by women also result in lower wages for men who hold these jobs.
Libertarian Billionaires Paying For Daycare Won't Bridge The … Forbes Women have long out-paced men in academia, yet they remain underrepresented in certain areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (commonly referred to as the STEM fields). Since STEM graduates not only have more job opportunities, but also higher paying jobs, many see boosting women's participation in these disciplines as a key to reaching gender equality. There has been no dearth of public and private efforts to try to "solve" the problem. And the latest to get in the game is libertarian billionaire David Koch, who last week pledged $20 million to MIT to build a top-of-the-line childcare facility in an effort to attract and retain more women in the STEM fields.
Liberals and Economists Get the Female Fed Chair They Wanted The Atlantic Wire President Obama will announce his nomination for Federal Reserve chair today, and that person will be Janet Yellen, making her the first woman to hold the job. The months leading up to this nomination have been uncharacteristically divisive among liberals: Obama's top pick, former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, dropped out after commentators and Senate Democrats objected him. Now, Obama will bow to liberal Democrats, women's groups, and economists by giving them the Fed chief they wanted.

Target boosts forecast in sign it's weathering retail woes
[NEW YORK] Target Corp delivered another sign that its comeback is taking hold as stronger online sales helped brighten the retailer's outlook.
Second-quarter sales topped analysts' estimates on Wednesday, and the company boosted its forecast for the rest of the year. That helped soothe investors after a rocky earnings season for retailers, sending Target shares up as much as 6.3 per cent in early trading.
The results show that Target is improving in both online sales and customer traffic - two areas where it's been losing ground to Wal-Mart Stores Inc. They also lend credence to a US$7 billion turnaround plan laid out in February by Chief Executive Officer Brian Cornell. He aims to refurbish stores, open more small locations in cities and speed delivery of online orders.
Target needs to up its game as Wal-Mart reduces prices and Amazon.com Inc. expands its lineup in categories like apparel and beauty, which have long been strongholds of Minneapolis-based Target.
"It is encouraging to see some progress against their turnaround plan, and that they were finally able to generate some positive traffic," said Jennifer Bartashus, an analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence. "They took a very conservative approach to second-quarter guidance, so it isn't a huge surprise that they were able to beat those expectations."
Same-store sales increased 1.3 per cent in the second quarter, fueled by a 32 per cent boost in online revenue and a 2.1 per cent gain in customer traffic - the biggest jump in more than two years. Analysts had been predicting same-store sales growth of just 0.7 per cent, according to Consensus Metrix.
The retailer now expects earnings this year of US$4.34 to US$4.54 a share, excluding some items. The midpoint of that range is ahead of the US$4.41 analysts have estimated.
Ms Bartashus said the new forecast for the rest of the year might also prove conservative, as Target should benefit from back-to-school shopping. Most of those purchases still occur in stores rather than online, according to a survey by ORC International. Other retailers, including Kohl's Corp and JC Penney Co, have recently noted strong early demand for school supplies.
Target climbed as high as US$57.77 in premarket trading in the wake of the results. The shares had declined 25 per cent this year through Tuesday.
The upbeat outlook brings a note of optimism to a retail industry with plenty of struggles. Shares of Dick's Sporting Goods Inc and Coach Inc both plunged on Tuesday after reporting disappointing results. Even Home Depot Inc, long considered a shopping-centre star, saw its shares fall after its earnings report.
Dick's CEO said retailers were in "panic mode," causing them to rely heavily on discounts in a bid to attract shoppers.
Last week, department-store companies posted mixed results, renewing concerns that the sector is flailing in its attempts to pull out of a slump.
Against that backdrop, Target's improving numbers are a promising sign. The retailer increased the number of stores it plans to remodel this year from 250 to more than 300, and said it will expand its new "Target Restock" program - which offers next-day delivery of thousands of household essentials - to Dallas and seven other cities. It also plans to broaden a same-day delivery service that's currently only available in New York City.
Target also aims to benefit from other retailers closing thousands of locations this year. The shuttered stores could leave US$60 billion in sales up for grabs, Mr Cornell said.
Still, the company has been outpaced by Wal-Mart and Costco Wholesale Corp, its top big-box rivals. Wal-Mart reports its results on Thursday.
"Target is not out of the woods yet," Brandon Fletcher, an analyst at Sanford C Bernstein, said in a note, but "this quarter is a definite step in the right direction."

When people are taken into police custody, it is easy for them to feel completely out of their element, especially if they have never been arrested before. They may wonder what will happen to them, what they need to do and what options they may have for getting out of the predicament. In relation to the last thought, obtaining legal information can often help them understand their defense options for accusations of violent crimes.
It was recently reported that three individuals in Arkansas were taken into custody on multiple charges. Apparently, the two men and one woman had been at a home when another man came to talk with the woman. For an unknown reason, according to the authorities, one of the other men pointed a shotgun at the visiting man, and the second man pointed a pistol at the visitor.
The alleged victim claims that he was hit in the back of the head and choked before the others forced him into his truck and told him to drive while the woman pointed a gun at him. The other two men followed the truck in an SUV. The victim saw a parked police car and stopped his truck in front of it and jumped out for help. The situation resulted in the two men and woman being taken into custody and charged with robbery, assault and kidnapping.
Allegations of violent crimes can severely impact anyone's life. The individuals accused in this Arkansas incident may find it in their best interests to explore their legal options closely to determine the most viable courses of action. With the right information, they may feel better able to work toward the outcomes they find most agreeable.

CFA wants dereg moves deep-sixed
A report released Tuesday by the Consumer Federation of America called on the
government to declare a moratorium on deregulation of the telecommunications
industry, saying such deregulation has "destroyed the critical balance that U.S.
policy had struck between private incentives and public obligations."
Citing the economic meltdowns of numerous companies in both
telecommunications and utilities, CFA director of research Mark Cooper said,
"The boom-and-bust cycle unleashed by deregulation has grave consequences for
money markets and the economy."
Now that the economic bubble has burst, the CFA wants Congress to reconsider the
Tauzin-Dingell broadband-deregulation bill (already passed in the House), and
it wants the Federal Communications Commission to rethink a "half-dozen rulemakings"
that it said are on the same deregulatory track. The report is available at www.consumerfed.org/publicint.pdf

SRAM RED AXS is a road group based on SRAM's successful E-tap system. Notable upgrades over current e-tap include a larger drivetrain range thanks to the use of an XD hub driver to allow for cassette cogs as small as 10-tooth, a new stronger, quieter chain, and increased personalization from the AXS app.
On tarmac or gravel, 1x or 2x, eTap AXS gives a quiet, secure, and smooth ride. Orbit chain management and a unique Flattop™ chain allows for more confidence and efficiency over virtually any terrain.
The SRAM AXS app allows riders to see battery status, change component behavior, personalize controls, get maintenance reminders, and update firmware.
A smaller eTap BlipBox easily integrates into aero frames or the new Zipp Vuka Aero bar, improving aerodynamics and allowing for a super sleek look.
A Quarq DZero power meter is integrated into AXS chainrings, making power measurement more affordable, accessible, and lighter.
AXS allows you to mix and match Road and MTB components, allowing for cool features like dropper post control through a drop bar groupset, ideal for modern gravel and adventure bikes.
The SRAM RED eTap AXS front derailleur leverages advancements with X-Range gearing, carving out space for wide rear-tire clearance, and making it a perfect fit for modern riding. The derailleur can be personalized with the AXS app, and is compatible with existing eTap batteries
The SRAM RED eTap AXS rear derailleur is AXS™ enabled for easy personalization and designed for both 1x and 2x systems. Advanced chain management keeps
it silent and secure no matter the terrain. The derailleur also comes with larger X-SYNC™ pulleys and ceramic bearings for increased durability and efficiency, and faster motors and signals, for faster shifting.
The unique link shape of the all-new SRAM RED chain allows the it to be narrower and lighter while increasing strength and providing more space between the outer plates of the chain and the cogs on either side. The result is a quieter chain with faster, more precise shifts. Flattop™ technology enables a narrower chain with quieter operation and increased strength and durability, and new Hard Chrome™ plated inner link plates and rollers reduced wear
and prolong life.
Specifically designed for wireless electronic shifting, the SRAM RED XG-1290 cassette progresses fluidly and quickly through a wider range of gears than previous RED offerings. and the one-piece design offers you the best in weight savings. More gradual gear progression between cogs—at least five one-tooth jumps – makes for smoother shifting, while a 10-tooth first cog helps provide a wider gearing range, thanks to the new XDR driver body.
While shifting is fully wireless, braking is still fully hydraulic. The SRAM RED eTap AXS HRD shift-brake system is AXS enabled and easily personalized for hand size and reach, and the new brakes share SRAM MTB's Bleeding Edge technology for easy and clean brake bleeds. Brake calipers are available in flat mount and post mount caliper options.
Significantly smaller, the SRAM eTap AXS BlipBox is now easier to integrate—mounting inside a stem faceplate cap, feed box or frame. It's also AXS enabled, for easy personalization.
The SRAM RED crankset leverages a pivotal design innovation: smaller chainrings and a wider cassette range. This leads to smoother and faster shifting up front and more useful gearing for today's riders. The new configurations improve cadence and efficiency while also delivering shifts that are crisp, clean and quick—every time.
The SRAM RED AXS cranks feature reduced chainring size, thanks to increased range from the cassette, and a 13-tooth delta on all chainring pairs, ensuring precise shifting for any setup. This results in more useful gearing and better shifting across all configurations. Power Meter enabled SRAM RED AXS cranks are designed with Quarq DZero power measurement in the crankset, capable of measuring left and right legs separately. Power readings are accurate within +/-1.5% and aren't affected by climate conditions during a ride.
SRAM Eagle AXS represents SRAM's first foray into electronic (and wireless) shifting for MTB. SRAM Eagle AXS offers unprecedented personalization and control of the drivetrain and enhances capability while removing complexity.
Both XX1 Eagle AXS and X01 Eagle AXS are based on previous 12-speed Eagle technology with the addition of a wireless electronic derailleur and controller. A completely new shifter and all-new derailleur (specifically designed and optimized to be motor-driven instead of cable-actuated), enables customization and scale to an individual rider's liking via the AXS app.
Eagle AXS™ allows riders to shift under load, over the roughest terrain, uphill, or without changing their grip on the bar, thanks to their secret up shift button located by the riders index finger.
SRAM Eagle AXS comes in two variations; XC- focused XX1 Eagle AXS and Endruo- focused X01 Eagle AXS
SRAM XX1 Eagle AXS features a carbon cage and ti hardware to ensure the lightest and stiffest derailleur possible, and utilizes SRAM's new X-SYNC 2 chainring.
SRAM X01 Eagle AXS has the same 500-percent gear range of mechanical Eagle, but with a more secure and longer wearing X-SYNC™2 chainring. The resilience of an aluminum cage, paired with the connected components of Eagle AXS ensures that it will shift predictably and precisely, even under heavy load in rough terrain.
Eagle AXS Derailleur
More than a mechanical derailleur with a battery and a motor bolted on, the Eagle AXS derailleur is the brain of the whole AXS system. From the box, all it requires is limit adjustment and pairing before it is 100% ready to ride. It features a shorter cage for 10mm more ground clearance, with more chain wrap on the cassette to sit slightly further forward, and further inboard from mechanical Eagle.
Eagle AXS Controller
The elimination of cable, housing and wires allows SRAM engineers to design a completely new shifting experience with ergonomic touch points that operate from a light press. When paired with the (optional) AXS app, riders can reassign button functions to create their ideal shifting (and dropper-post actuation) system. The AXS Secret Sprint Paddle, oriented on the front-side of the controller near the rider's index knuckle, allows for quick shifts with virtually no change to hand position, ideal for use in sprints.
Bolt it on, set three limit screws, press the pairing buttons, and go. Eagle AXS is trimmed and adjusted electronically for a perfect chain line, meaning that there is no additional effort to shift or idiosyncrasies to learn.
The Eagle AXS uses a removable battery for easy recharging after 20 hours of ride time. The battery weighs 25g and is detachable with a single clip. The battery is compatible with the Reverb AXS seatpost and SRAM RED or Force eTap AXS road group, and it only takes an hour to charge. Battery life can be checked on the app, or by pressing the button on the derailleur, where an indicator light provides charge level information. To prolong battery life, the system goes to power save mode when the bike is stationery.
The Eagle AXS system is completely water and dust proof to the IP69K international standard. Initially developed for construction vehicles and food sensitization, the IP69K standard validates systems that require regular pressurized cleaning.
The AXS App
The AXS app makes it possible to both program and personalize Eagle AXS to rider specifications, allowing for adjustments and personalized controller assignments for shift and Reverb commands from a mobile device. The app is not necessary for AXS to function; it is only needed for further personalization or to gain access to the data the system has accumulated.
