Clinton Assad talks stall at Geneva summit
In Geneva the Clinton administration and President Assad failed to restart face to face talks with Syrians insisting on Golan Heights cession before any progress. Officials said the talks were useful but not productive enough to resume negotiations. Clinton and Barak pressed for peace while Dennis Ross headed back to brief Barak in Israel.

Beginning of the universe to be recreated at Brookhaven lab
Physicists plan to strike gold atoms at nearly light speed inside Brookhaven National Laboratory to generate quark-gluon plasma and study its properties. The experiment aims to recreate matter as it existed microseconds after the Big Bang, shedding light on how protons and neutrons formed. John Harris of Yale emphasizes probing the plasma's behavior.

Brookhaven RHIC aims to recreate early universe plasma
The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider at Brookhaven will smash heavy ions to form quark gluon plasma, recording data at a petabyte per year with four detectors. Experts cite signs like gamma rays and strange quarks, while MIT’s Robert Jaffe notes the analogy to building with Tinkertoys. Protons and neutrons form from quarks as the universe cools, and spin composition of protons remains to be fully explained.

Putin appears headed for outright victory in election
Vladimir Putin likely secures a clear win in Russia's presidential race as 69 percent of ballots counted show him at 51.17 percent. A surprisingly strong Communist showing threatens a runoff and fuels concern over possible rollbacks of democratic reforms.
