| | Jeffrey Sachs on Global Poverty: "Wrong To Let People Die" Mar 8th 2013, 18:15 | Economist and director of the Earth Institute at Columbia University, Jeffrey Sachs, spoke with New York Times science writer Claudia Dreifus on March 4, 2013. The full conversation, which is part of 92Y's "Global Issues" series, covered a full range of topics, including the AIDS epidemic in America and abroad, the birth of the Occupy Wall Street movement, and Jeffrey's career. On global poverty, Sachs sees a moral imperative to find solutions. "It does seem very strange that in this world of incredible wealth and technology, you have people dying of hunger, lack of safe water and medicine...it's nuts. I think it's wrong to let people die." Sachs also thinks the worlds billionaires could help solve the problem. "Just a little over a thousand billionaires in the world have four and a half trillion dollars of wealth...they by themselves could solve this problem if the got around to it." Do you agree with Jeffrey that we can be doing more to solve the hunger problem? Leave your comment below. | Views: 0 0 ratings | | Time: 01:40 | More in News & Politics |

| | Chris Brown Explodes at Valet at Charity Event- Watch! Mar 7th 2013, 19:10 | bit.ly - Subscribe to ClevverMusic! Clevver.com - Visit our site! http - ClevverMusic Facebook Fan Page! Twitter.com - Follow Us! We were on hand last night where Chris Brown got in a fight with the parking valet... at a charity event! Hey guys you're watching ClevverMusic. Last night in Studio City was the annual Stars & Strikes Celebrity Bowling and Poker Tournament at PINZ bowling alley, in support of the charity 'A Place Called Home'. ClevverMusic and I attended the event to talk to your favorite musicians about their support of the charity and their new music. We were pleasantly surprised when Chris Brown showed up at the event unannounced, and although he didn't do press he did honor a few fans with photos which we were happy to see. However, things took a turn when Chris tried to leave the event, take a look. It seemed the fight almost went somewhere when Chris said, "We gonna turn this whole thing on up," with the valet repeatedly shouting "we need the money!" According to TMZ the scuffle was over a $10 valet service charge which Chris was mad about since he was only at the event for about 30 minutes. Such valet fee is not uncommon in Los Angeles, however, not common at a bowling alley. Likely the charge was due to there being event that night. Luckily, Chris' crew held him back from doing anything physical. Not sure if he actually paid the $10 or not. Do you think he overreacted? Does arguing with the valet cancel out the fact that he was at a charity event <b>...</b> | Views: 4866 49 ratings | | Time: 02:09 | More in Music |
