G-20 Itinerary difficult to come by


From the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette-

As the city readies itself for the G-20 summit Sept. 24 and 25, those lusting for a piece of the action during Pittsburgh's two days in the international spotlight would be well-advised to remember this line from the Robert Altman movie about Hollywood, titled, tellingly, "The Player":

Nobody knows anything.

Harold Lewis, Rector of Calvary Episcopal Church in Shadyside, said he would invite President Barack Obama and his wife to visit his church, he told parishioners on Sunday.

Reached yesterday, though, Mr. Lewis declined to elaborate on his plans. "I wouldn't want to comment before issuing an invitation," he said. "But it never hurts to ask."

Would Judy Davenport, wife of broadcasting executive Ron Davenport and whose son, Ron Jr., attended Harvard Law School with Michelle Obama, like to host a party for the First Couple?

"Oh, I'm not going to go there," Ms. Davenport said with a laugh, while insisting she knew of no plans for any social events involving the president and his wife. "But of course we're thrilled and happy for Pittsburgh."
