Antonis Samaras’ New Democracy party came first in Sunday’s vote, winning 129 of Parliament’s 300 seats — not enough for him to govern alone. He is seeking an alliance with the third-placed Socialist PASOK and the smaller Democratic Left party. New Democracy and PASOK took part in a 6-month coalition government earlier this year. PASOK leader Evangelos Venizelos met Tuesday with Democratic Left head Fotis Kouvelis, who told reporters afterward that a deal could potentially be achieved “within hours.” Nevermind Greece, Spain’s banks may need $190BVideo: Election gives many Greeks new hopeVideo: Markets still anxious over Greek crisis President Obama, meanwhile, was at an economic summit in Mexico trying to land assurances that Europe is closing in on a financial crisis response that will calm the markets and keep the continent’s woes from undermining the world.

She’s with the division of general medicine and primary care at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston. Food allergies cost the United States an estimated $25 billion annually, Zhou said. For the study, Zhou and her colleagues reviewed nearly 3 million medical records identifying more than 97,000 patients who suffered from one or more food allergies or an intolerance to a food. The most common allergy was to shellfish, such as shrimp and lobster, Zhou said. “In addition, 1 in 6 patients with a food allergy or intolerance had a documented anaphylaxis [life-threatening swelling of the airways],” she noted.
