The Metro is reporting, via Foobooz, that the displaced Rick's Steaks (remember the drama?) may be in talks with Park Hyatt at the Bellevue to move his establishment to move to the food court there. We wonder how long it'll be before he gets into a fight with the management there, too.

I have been waiting for tonight for a long time.

Who says that artists can’t make a living? Not the folks at the Global Creative Economy Convergence Summit, who kicked off three days of art talk, business talk, food, drinks, fun and damn good cake yesterday at the Park Hyatt Philadelphia.

This afternoon the Park Hyatt Philadelphia at the Bellevue will be the site of a conference hosted by the World Affairs Council of Philadelphia and entitled Islam and the West. It's being held in honor of the 90th birthday of Professor Bernard Lewis, a noted scholar of the Middle East and currently Princeton's Cleveland E. Dodge Professor Emeritus of Near Eastern Studies. Showing up for the birthday party/deep political discussion will be plenty of other experts on the Middle East and Islam, not to mention celebrities like former host of CNN's "Inside Politics" Judy Woodruff, and such luminaries of Western politics as Senator Joseph Biden, former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, and Mr. Darth Vader himself, Vice President Dick Cheney. Mr. Cheney isn't exactly going to be hanging around having drinks with everybody afterwards, though; according to his schedule, he's arriving at the Philadelphia International Airport at 11:15AM, speaking at the Hyatt at 12:10PM, and leaving from the airport again at 12:50PM. Wow. He may actually have to fold time or something to pull that off. Well, either that, or deliver a speech that's only three words long. Which we hear he's been known to do in the past...

People are already gathering at the Park Hyatt at Broad and Walnut to see President George W. Bush pimp his Strategy for Victory for Iraq. The sold out presentation to the World Affairs CouncilPresident's speech is due to start shortly before noon, will last approximately 40 minutes, and - at the insistence of the White House - will not have a 'question and answer' session following the speech.

Having invaded Iraq two years ago, we're not sure why there's a plan for victory being presented .
