NEW YORK (Reuters) – World stocks and oil prices fell on Thursday on concerns about the health of Spain’s banks and the prospect of Greece leaving the euro zone.

Adding to pressure on Wall Street stocks was a U.S. government report showing manufacturing in the mid-Atlantic states unexpectedly contracted in May.

The data helped lift safe-haven U.S. Treasuries prices, and pushed the 10-year note yield to just 5 basis points from its lowest level in at least 50 years, while gold prices rallied 2.6 percent.

Worries about Spanish banks resurfaced after a media report said customers of Bankia had withdrawn more than 1 billion euros from their accounts in the past week. The Spanish government said there had been no such exit of deposits.

Shares of the partly nationalized Bankia fell 13.5 percent but recovered some of the losses after the government’s denial.

The developments in Spain followed reports that customers of Greek banks were moving funds on the belief the country would exit the euro, adding to broader anxiety about the region’s debt crisis.

“The whole equities market is being driven by a macro trade based upon contagion fear in Europe, and really the problem is undercapitalized banks there,” said Jack de Gan, chief investment officer at Harbor Advisory Corp in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.

Global shares, as measured by MSCI’s world equity index, declined 0.6 percent, and were set for a fifth day of losses along with U.S. stocks.

The Dow Jones industrial average was down 81.32 points, or 0.65 percent, at 12,517.23. The Standard & Poor’s 500 Index was down 10.85 points, or 0.82 percent, at 1,313.95. The Nasdaq Composite Index was down 42.57 points, or 1.48 percent, at 2,831.47.

The pan-European FTSE 300 index dropped 1.2 percent, a fourth straight day of declines.

Brent crude futures extended losses to more than $2 (1.26 pounds) a barrel on concerns about Greece and the wider euro zone. Brent July crude was down $2.33 at $107.42 a barrel, having fallen to $107.26, the low for the year.

“The oil market, like other risky assets, is within the grips of uncertainty surrounding the euro zone,” said Harry Tchilinguirian, BNP Paribas head of commodities strategy.

Investors followed the heated political debate in Athens, where opponents of harsh austerity measures to obtain an international bailout are expected to win new elections in June.

The euro earlier dropped to $1.2665, its lowest level since mid-January, past stop-loss sell orders below $1.2680 and on course for a test of its 2012 low of $1.2623, according to Reuters data. It last traded at $1.2722, up 0.1 percent.

The yen, though, posted sharp gains against the euro and dollar, bolstered by safety bids.

In the U.S. Treasury market, the benchmark 10-year Treasury note was up 16/32, its yield easing to 1.70 percent, – just 5 basis points from its lowest level in at least 50 years.

Gold prices also rose, with spot gold registering its largest one-day gain since late January.

Spot gold bounced to an intraday high of $1,579.70 and was last up 2.36 percent at $1,575.5 per ounce. That is up almost $50 since it plunged to December lows around $1,527 on Wednesday.

If you’re currently in the market for a heating and air conditioning contractor, you may be a bit overwhelmed, particularly if you’ve never searched for an HVAC technician previously. Don’t worry! There are plenty of resources that can help you in choosing the best HVAC contractor for the job you need done.

One of the top places to search for heating and air conditioning contractor reviews is your local Better Business Bureau. All you have to do is go to your area’s BBB website and check out what fellow consumers are saying about your city’s HVAC contractors. For example, if you’re looking for a trusted Louisville heating and air conditioning contractor, go to Louisville’s BBB site and search from there. You can search the BBB website by using a specific business name or by simply searching for “heating and air conditioning contractors”. You’ll enter your city and state and then be given a list of local businesses and reviews about those businesses.

Another trusted place to go is Angie’s List. Angie’s List has over one million members who check the website for recommendations and reviews and who post their own reviews. Angie’s List is particularly special because businesses can’t pay to be listed on the website, and the reviews come from genuine, real people–not anonymous users who are pushing their own agendas. One more benefit of using Angie’s List is that some contractors and businesses will offer you a discount if they know that you found them via Angie’s List.

A final resource you can use to find the best HVAC contractor in your area is USAHeatingContractors.com. This website does focus primarily on heating contractors; however, the majority of heating technicians are also certified to work on air conditioning units, so you shouldn’t have a problem finding someone qualified to do what you need done. All you have to do is select your location and then sift through the various reviews that are listed.

When you do get in touch with a contractor, don’t forget to ask him or her about the following:

* Licensing — The majority of states require HVAC technicians to be licensed or certified. Be sure to find out if your potential contractor is legally able to do the work that you need done. * Estimates — It’s a good idea to get three different estimates from three different contractors just to see what’s middle of the road and what’s far too expensive. This can also be a good way to see which contractor knows what he or she is doing–and which contractor is too inexperienced for the job. * References — Every professional heating and air conditioning contractor should have references that he or she is more than willing to share with you. If your potential technician doesn’t have references or doesn’t want to supply you with references, move on to the next contractor on your list.

There you have it–great information that will help you find the best heating and air conditioning contractor for the job.

Prosecutors have released hundreds of pages of new evidence including witness interviews, crime scene photos, and the medical examiner’s report. NBC’s Kerry Sanders reports.

By msnbc.com, NBC News and news services

Prosecutors on Thursday made public a trove of evidence used to justify murder charges against Neighborhood Watch volunteer George Zimmerman, including a police report that concluded “the encounter between George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin was ultimately avoidable by Zimmerman.”

The evidence ? including 183 pages of documents, witness statements and other material ? was released Thursday to news organizations and other requestors by special prosecutor Angela Corey?s office, who has charged the 28-year-old Zimmerman with second-degree murder in the killing of 17-year-old Martin on Feb. 26 in Sanford, Fla. Also included was a document explaining what material was withheld.

An initial review of the evidence, which was provided to Zimmerman?s attorney early this week, uncovers documentation that will be helpful to both prosecutors and the defense.

AP

A Feb. 27, 2012 photo by the Sanford Police Dept., shows George Zimmerman on the night of Trayvon Martin’s shooting. The photo was released Thursday.

An autopsy by the Volusia County Medical Examiner on Martin’s body found that the teenager was killed by a shot to the heart and that traces of THC — or tetrahydrocannabinol,?the active ingredient in marijuana — were found in Martin’s blood, though below the level that medical studies indicate would have caused “performance impairment.”

But the documents give contradictory assessments of how far away Zimmerman was when he shot Martin.?

Lab tests by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement’s Orlando operations center concluded that residue tests on Martin’s sweatshirt were “consistent with a contact shot” ? that is, one in which the muzzle of the weapon is physically touching the victim.

But the autopsy report from the Volusia County (Fla.) Medical Examiner’s office reached a different conclusion based on examination of the wound itself, saying, “This wound is consistent with a wound of entrance of intermediate range.”

The report doesn’t define “intermediate range.”

In another report, a police officer responding to the shooting said that after Zimmerman was handcuffed, he saw ?that his back appeared to be wet and was covered with grass,? and that he had suffered a bloody nose ? consistent with Zimmerman?s account that he was attacked by Martin.

AP

A police photo of the back of George Zimmerman’s head shows scalp lacerations.

A photo showing Zimmerman’s bloodied head also is included in the report, as is a paramedic?s reports saying that he had a 1-inch laceration on his head and forehead abrasion.

“Bleeding tenderness to his nose, and a small laceration to the back of his head. All injuries have minor bleeding,” paramedic Michael Brandy wrote about Zimmerman’s injuries.

Another?police report indicated that Zimmerman, who is white and of Hispanic heritage, had called Sanford police on at least four previous occasions while residing in the Retreat at Twin Lakes gated community in Sanford, and in each case the ?suspicious person? was a black male.

?Investigation reveals that on Aug. 4, Aug. 5 and Oct. 6, 2011, and on Feb. 2, 2012, George Zimmerman reported suspicious persons ? all young black males ? in the Retreat neighborhood to Sanford Police Department,? it said. ?According to records checks, all of Zimmerman?s suspicious persons calls while residing in the Retreat neighborhood have identified black males as the subjects.?

Zimmerman himself was on a prescription for Tamazepam, according to the paramedic’s incident report reproducing his medical records. (Tamazepam is also known as Restoril and is prescribed for anxiety and insomnia.)?

Read the police reports and other documentary evidence?

Read what was excluded from the release and the reasons it was withheld?

Another police report ?indicated that?Sanford police thought Zimmerman was at fault, even though they let him go after questioning him.??

“Investigation reveals that Martin was in fact running generally in the direction of where he was staying as a guest in the neighborhood,” it said.

An eight-page summary of the evidence against Zimmerman released earlier this week listed 50 possible law enforcement witnesses — including 18 Sanford police officers as primary witnesses, including lead Investigator Chris Serino — and 28 civilian witnesses, including Martin’s brother, mother and father, Zimmerman?s father and two of his friends . Twenty-two other potential civilian witnesses were not identified.?

Zimmerman?s attorney, Mark O’Mara, acknowledged receiving the materials Monday on a website his office set up to release information from the case Zimmerman’s,?but said, “Please remember and understand that it is inappropriate for us to comment on particular pieces of evidence.”

Zimmerman shot Martin during a confrontation inside the Retreat at Twin Lakes ?community, while the teenager was visiting his father?s fianc?e.

The shooting came after Zimmerman called 911 reporting that Martin was acting suspiciously, as if he was on drugs. He later told police that he shot Martin in self-defense, after Martin punched him and pushed him to the ground.

Police initially failed to arrest Zimmerman or charge him with any crime because Florida’s Stand Your Ground self-defense law allows the use of deadly force whenever someone feels threatened with serious bodily injury.

But after questions about possible racial motivation for the slaying, a special prosecutor took over the case and, on April 11, Zimmerman was charged with second-degree murder. Zimmerman, who pleaded not guilty to the charge, was released on April 23 on a $150,000 bond and has been out of the public eye since then.

Msnbc.com’s Mike Brunker, Bill Dedman and M. Alex Johnson, NBC News producer Tom Winter and the Associated Press contributed to this report.
