Al Gore Lackluster Debate Denver Altitude - Die-hard Democrats are doing some serious head-scratching as they ponder the lackluster performance of the normally loquacious President Obama at last night's debate. Listen up as former Vice President Al Gore puts in his two cents about what made the master orator so bereft of spunk. It was the altitude! Guess they don't call Denver the Mile High City for nothing. Perched 5,280 feet above sea level, Denver’s low oxygen levels could certainly make a new arrival feel a twinge of dizziness, but full-on cerebral hypoxia? We're not buying it. Someone should have just brought POTUS a double espresso.

Wide-Eyed Chipotle Worker
Wide-Eyed Chipotle Worker - You don’t see many real fur coats in San Francisco, at least not where I’m likely to grab lunch. To see one on the woman in front of me in line at Chipotle—a chain whose website highlights the sorry plight of animals in factory farms—was distinctly odd.
“It looks so warm and snuggly!” said the cashier, eyeing the plush brown coat. “Thanks,” the woman in fur said. “I’m probably going to hell, though.” She sounded guilty; conflicted, anyway.There are plenty of us who feel conflicted about Chipotle, even if we don’t own a single fur garment. The chain whose motto is “food with integrity” has come under fire from activists like Florida-based Coalition of Immokalee Workers, say, for failing to sign its fair food agreement to support farmworkers. Earlier this week, though, Good’s Erica Grieder stood up for the rapidly growing chain.
