Fisher Capital Management Scam Reviews : Google Maps adds weather layer

Google Maps adds weather layer
Google Maps got a new feature that can potentially draw more users. The search engine giant announced the addition of a weather layer to their Maps, which sports a grid of icons depicting the present weather conditions across an area.
This feature is activated through the drop-down menu located at the top right corner of the Maps screen, along with other layers like transit and traffic. The weather layer only shows when a user zooms out to the neighborhood level. A whole set of data points appear to show the weather conditions on the entire map. Fisher Capital Management confirms that a menu pops out, letting the user toggles between various units for wind speed and temperature.
When you zoom out or in, the weather layer also scales. It’s quite a neat feature that makes the integration of weather updates more sleek and convenient compared to typing names of cities into a weather search. For a traveler, having access to weather conditions will be a cinch for they will automatically shows up everywhere along your chosen route. What’s more, Google allied with the US Naval Research Lab to show real-time cloud cover data straight to the map. This particular feature works best if you are zoomed out, because being close in it will make it difficult to tell if there are really clouds. While there are those who will certainly find use in these new features, they can be turned off if you zoom far enough of the map.
By clicking on a particular icon, more details will pop up along with a four-day weather forecast. The data comes from Weather.com  and the pop-ups have links to their site to give you an hourly update or a ten-day forecast.
This new feature is particularly helpful, especially for those who are traveling. Though it’s been a long time coming, Fisher Capital Management must say the integration of Naval Research Lab tech and Weather.com is well worth it.

Fisher Capital Management Investment: Moody on Japan’s Credit Ratings

http://investment.fishercapitalmanagementinvestment.com/category/economics/


Last Wednesday, Japan’s debt rating was downgraded by Moody’s Investor’s Service to three levels below triple-A. However, Fisher Capital Management would have to insist that the outlook remains stable despite the country’s fear of experiencing crisis in the debt market.
The announcement was made few days before the ruling party was due to select the sixth prime minister within the last five years. This adds up the pressure of the political leaders to make drastic measures to improve the country’s finances.
Moody’s reasoned out that the cut to Japan’s government bond rating was due to the build-up of debts with large budget deficits since the 2009 global recession.
But it seems that Moody’s ratings is far better than other major ratings companies, like the Fitch and Standard & Poor’s Ratings, which rate Japan’s debt double-A-minus. These companies further add a negative outlook for the government’s finances.
As the U.S. gets more criticisms on its finances, so does Japan which is the world’s third largest economy. However, Japan is way down below the financial stability of the U.S., being downgraded from triple-A earlier this month by the S&P. Japan’s central government gets its annual budget from bond issuance, whose gross debt increased to more than 200% of the gross domestic products.
Japan is rated above single-A, a level that forces pension funds to cease buying government bonds. Most domestic investors largely finance the country’s deficit, according to Fisher Capital Management.
Mr. Thomas Byrne, senior vice president for Moody’s, insists in the later press conference that Japanese banks are far better than in the previous years, which is two-notch higher than the A2 ratings in 2002.
Finance Minister Yoshihiko Noda made no further comments about the ratings, but defended the credit worthiness of Japan’s debt.
The bond market remains smooth; there was an increase of 1.03% before reversing the benchmark 10-year yield and ended unchanged at 1.010%.
Before the gains were given up, the value of the yen against the dollar depreciated to 76.78 yen from 76.66 yen. However, an increase showed in the credit default swaps, which is the measurement of the market’s view of a bond’s risk.
Moody blames the downgrade to the country’s current political problems, which has prevented them to create durable and efficient policies to implement economic and fiscal strategies.
To add up to its structural debt problems, there are Japan’s additional expenditures to recover the March 11 earthquake and tsunami. Despite the obvious fact, several political leaders refuse to support tax increase, fearing a fragile economic recovery.
Moody’s also made further announcements lowering its ratings on many Japanese banks. There was also a cut on the ratings on twelve Japanese regional and local governments.

    Fisher Capital Management Warning: Standard Life Issues Inflation Warning


    Joe McGrath, 14 June 2011
    Investors buying a level annuity with a pension pot of £80,000 will spend their entire monthly income on basic living costs within seven years of retirement, according to new statistics.
    Standard Life researchers have warned that many people could see their retirement income consumed by the basic costs of living as the effect of inflation eats into the money they set aside for retirement.
    The FTSE 100 company’s retirement team today warned that investors to take financial advice or risk losing out from inflation restricting living standards in the future.
    John Lawson, head of pensions policy at Standard Life, said the cost of living is rising fast for most people in the UK, but this can be particularly acute for pensioners.
    He explained, ‘Their spending habits are driven by commodities such as food and fuel bills and these inflation rates are much higher than the overall UK inflation rate.
    ‘People need to consider how to protect their buying power in retirement from the ravages of inflation over a long period of time, which could be 30 years or more.
    ‘If pensioner inflation remains at around 6 per cent a year, people with a fixed income could lose almost half of their spending power within a ten year period.
    ‘There are many options to consider at retirement which could minimise the impact of inflation on your income, so seeking professional financial advice is vital.’

    Fisher Capital Management Investment: Drowning Pool Bassist Steve Benton Reopens The Boiler Room In Deep Ellum

    By Daniel Hopkins, Mon., Jun. 13 2011 at 5:30 PM

    Stevie Benton totally owns the bass guitar, and now, The Boiler Room

    It hasn’t been very long since The Boiler Room in Deep Ellum closed down, but we’ve just received word that it is being reopened by someone with quite a bit of history with Deep Ellum.
    Drowning Pool bassist Stevie Benton and a few other investors have just purchased the place, and, with it, they acquired everything left behind from the previous owner — the sound system, the kitchen equipment, and just about everything else you need to run a bar.
    So, soon as Benton got the keys, the place was open for business — just as it was last night as the venue hosted a well-attended Dallas Mavericks watching party.
    Still, Benson plans to make a few changes to the Deep Ellum spot that once housed Daddy Jack’s at the intersection of Elm and Crowdus streets. The room’s name is at the top of the list.
    “There’s a 75 percent chance we’re going to have to keep it as The Boiler Room,” says Benton. “The whole thing depends on whether or not we can have our name changed on our liquor license.”
    For now, Benton and his investors are tossing around potential names like The Sin Bar (named after the band’s first album, Sinner) and The Nightmare. Benton was, however, surprised to learn that there was a bar called The Nightmare located just up the street only a few months ago.
    As far as other matters go, Benton plans to put the kitchen equipment to good use, with a full menu that should be ready in just a few weeks. In addition to a food menu, he hopes to bring in bands.
    “At some point soon, it’ll be a live music venue,” he says. “We’ll have bands, but before we do that we’ll have to get in there and remodel the stage and sound and lighting.”
    Benton hopes to get the stage up and running by end of summer.
    With so many memories of himself playing live music in Deep Ellum, there’s little wonder why he wanted to open a bar there.
    “[Drowning Pool] got our start down in Deep Ellum,” Benton says. “We owe that area pretty much our entire career. That’s what launched us.”

    Fisher Capital Management Corporate News:Ben Bernanke Warning Over US Debt Crisis

    Updated: 17:18, Wednesday, 15 June 2011

    The head of the US central bank has said America’s creditworthiness is at risk if the country’s borrowing limit is not raised.



    Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke has urged Republican members of Congress to vote in favour of lifting the borrowing level from its current $14.3 trillion threshold.

    ‘I fully understand the desire to use the debt limit deadline to force some necessary and difficult fiscal policy adjustments, but the debt limit is the wrong tool for that important job,’ Mr Bernanke said in a speech in Washington.

    The Fed Chair said in the absence of a quick resolution to the battle over the debt limit, the US could lose its prized AAA credit rating, while the dollar’s special status as a reserve currency might be damaged.

    Mr Bernanke said that putting in place sustainable fiscal policies was a ‘daunting’ challenge ‘crucial for our nation.’

    ‘History makes clear that failure to put our fiscal house in order will erode the vitality of our economy, reduce the standard of living in the United States, and increase the risk of economic and financial instability.’

    However, he said, ‘In debating critical fiscal issues, we should avoid unnecessary actions or threats that risk shaking the confidence of investors in the ability and willingness of the US government to pay its bills.’

    US President Barack Obama yesterday warned of a new economic meltdown if the ceiling is not lifted in time.

    ‘We could actually have a reprise of a financial crisis, if we play this too close to the line,’ Mr Obama told NBC television.

    ‘We’re going (to) be working hard over the next month. My expectation is we’re going (to) get it done in a sensible way. That’s what the American people expect.’

    If agreement is not reached by a deadline in early August, the US could start defaulting on its obligations.

    Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner has warned that failure to raise the borrowing cap by 2 August will trigger turmoil in the bond markets and economic ‘catastrophe’.

    He met with Republican and Democratic politicians to try to find an exit to the impasse.

    BACK TO BUSINESS
    The economy expanded at 7.8 per cent in the first quarter of the year – the slowest pace in five quarters.
    Yesterday, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) raised key interest rates for the 10th time since March last year, despite warnings by analysts that high interest rates could dent the main drivers of economic growth: domestic consumption and investment.
    Signs of trouble are already visible. Last year, foreign direct investment in India fell 32 per cent from 2009 to US$24 billion (Dh88.15bn). The rate of investments in India plunged to 0.4 per cent in the January to March period compared with 20 per cent in the same period last year. Industrial production slowed to 6.3 per cent in April from 8.8 per cent in March.



    D Subbarao, the governor of the RBI, said the interest rate rises were warranted to deal with rising inflation, which Credit Suisse bank called India’s “horror show”.
    Inflation increased to 9.06 per cent in May compared with 8.66 per cent in April. But policy analysts say raising interest rates incessantly is akin to pressing the brake pedal and the accelerator at the same time.
    “The slowdown has been due to a near collapse in the investment cycle,” says Rohini Malkani, an economist with the investment bank Citi India. “Higher rates could take a toll on investments and consumption.”
    Aggressive monetary tightening threatens to destabilise the growth of the industrial sector, which the country heavily relies on to absorb the millions of people entering the workforce every year. Such action could spark widespread social unrest, Udayan Bose, the chairman of India’s employer association’s corporate finance committee, warned in a letter this week to Mr Subbarao.

    HeatSponge SIDEKICK, Finally Revealed: Boiler Room Equipment, Inc

    Fisher Capital on Boiler Room Equipment, Inc, is very proud to finally unveil the SIDEKICK line of condensing boiler economizers for commercial and industrial hot water boilers. The Sidekick has been in development for nearly two years and represents an evolutionary development of high-efficiency installations in the boiler industry. The SIDEKICK is a game changer the likes of which have not been experienced since the introduction of the first condensing boilers. The SIDEKICK offers the ability to integrate condensing boiler efficiencies to conventional boilers on a new or retrofit basis. The SIDEKICK allows a customer with a conventional boiler system the ability to realize condensing efficiency gains that otherwise would require the existing boiler to be demolished and replaced with a new condensing boiler. Conventional, non-condensing boilers can now realize the efficiency benefits of outdoor air temperature reset controls and lower circulating hot water loop temperatures. Sidekicks also allow for duel fuel condensing applications utilizing conventional boilers. The SIDEKICK features all stainless internal construction, stainless tubes and fins, and an insulated outer casing. Inspection and clean out ports make periodic maintenance and cleaning easy.

    The efficiency of the SIDEKICK goes far beyond simply energy recovery to the ultra-productive process in which it is selected and designed. Heat recovery for condensing applications introduces a significant number of variables that makes a catalog-approach to equipment selection nearly impossible. Boilerroom Equipment has developed a new method of quantifying heat recovery, the Recovery Rate, and integrated this into the design. The incorporation of the Recovery Rate variable allows a customer to custom tailor the level of heat recovery and cost directly to the requirements of each specific application. We define this new concept in heat recovery design as 3D Modularity, for modular construction in three dimensions. Based on a "Mass-Customization" approach to product development, Bruce will consider all of the application design constraints and will design a SIDEKICK optimized to meet the exact performance requirements at the most competitive price. Bruce has been given the ability to consider all aspects of the heat exchanger design relative to the price of the equipment and generate a fully priced proposal all in real-time; a software and engineering accomplishment that added over one thousand hours of coding and heat transfer modification to Bruce's core program. This means Bruce can handle all inquiries and generate proposals in real time by himself. The near elimination of sales and support overhead and significantly reduced project execution overhead requirements the Bruce software provides allows us to offer a product superior to any before it at pricing and responsiveness levels no conventional competitor could hope to match. 
    Bruce will go on-line live on Monday December 21st with full public access to the Sidekick software. BEI will display the SIDEKICK in public at the upcoming AHR Exposition in Orlando, booth 3126. We will also have other HeatSponge models on display and based on the popularity in Chicago last year will bring the HeatSponge NASCAR Late Model stock car back for another display appearance.
