White House welcomes Abbas in new push for peace
President Bush invited newly elected Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas to the White House and congratulated him by phone. He urged Abbas to continue fighting terrorism and building a security framework while signaling openness to a future meeting. Blair proposed a one day Mideast conference to boost Palestinian democracy, but Bush planned only a possible envoy to London. The roadmap for peace remains in place, with calls for Palestinian arrests and removal of illegal outposts.

Insurgents escalate bomb attacks ahead of Iraqi elections
Insurgents used larger bombs to hit U S forces in Baghdad killing two soldiers and wounding four as a Bradley armored vehicle was destroyed for a second time in a week. The attack followed the assassination of Baghdad’s deputy police chief and his son and came amid threats of highly trained snipers targeting voters. US officials warn of intensified attacks to derail the January elections.

Federal researchers earned royalties on experiments without patient disclosure
NIH scientists collected royalties for drugs and inventions developed on government funds, while patients often lacked full disclosure of researchers' financial interests. A 2000 pledge to disclose was delayed for five years, affecting thousands of participants in NIH trials. Officials say royalties totaled millions, with government sharing proceeds and reinvesting in research.
