Hollywood celebrities pay unbelievable amounts for tiny acreage on the Pacific in Malibu, California.

President Evo Morales claims that Bolivia's loss of the sea is an "open wound" that must be healed.
Chile's response? "Bolivia cannot expect a direct, frank and sincere dialogue while it simultaneously manifests its intention to go to international tribunals," said Chilean President Sebastian Pinera.
