In Jerusalem officials made clear that Israel considers the right of return a “nonstarter demand”. As long as Arab nations demand the right of return – no progress can be made. The other difficult issues, the 67’ borders and East Jerusalem, are open for discussion, but not the return of Palestinian refugees to the Green Line.

2. House of Representatives Speaker John Boehner’s plan to raise the U.S. debt limit to cover a few months of borrowing activity is a “nonstarter,” Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid said on Sunday.
“Speaker Boehner’s plan, no matter how he tries to dress it up, is simply a short-term plan, and is therefore a non-starter in the Senate and with the president,” Reid said in a prepared statement.

3. The American newspaper--born in Boston sometime between 1690 and 1721, depending on the prerequisites one prefers--is dying a remarkably sudden death. Overall circulation, adjusted for population growth, is about half of what it was in 1946 and is declining rapidly. And while the number of Internet readers is rising, they are no replacement for print readers from the standpoint of advertisers, who must pay the freight. To ad buyers the worth of an Internet reader is barely 10 percent of that of a print customer. Because of these and other no less destructive trends, publicly owned newspapers lost roughly 15 percent of their already falling advertising revenue last year, and with it, according to the invaluable analyses of journalism and technology maven Alan Mutter, a whopping 83 percent of their already decimated stock value. From an economic perspective, this is what it looks like to fall off a cliff.
