Majestic Gold Corp. (MJGCF.PK)
Gold is referred to as a precious metal; a classification of metals that are considered to be rare or have a high economic value. Humans have fashioned gold into decorations and jewelry since as early as 4,000 BC. The scarcity and beauty of this element has made it both a valuable commodity and investment vehicle throughout the history of humans. Gold is used in a wide range of technologies which can be attributed to its unique technical properties. It is both highly conductive, third to silver and copper, and resistant to corrosion. It is also highly malleable and ductile making it easy to physically manipulate into wire or sheets.

Chemical properties of gold permanently resist rust and tarnish making it prized among jewelry makers. The arrangement of gold's electrons is responsible for the lustrous yellow color. Yellow and rose gold colors do not change, fade or chip. White gold requires silver alloys that result in a gray finish. White gold jewelry is often plated with rhodium and platinum for a whiter look.

Aside from typically reducing energy costs, this may also obviate the need for dangerous chemical agents. The pharmaceutical and brewing industries, for example, both have a long history of employing enzyme-based cleaners to remove organic residues from their process equipment.

After all, everyone has to eat!
ConAgra Foods Reaffirms Its $94 Per Share All-Cash Proposal to Acquire Ralcorp Holdings
Will Withdraw Proposal Unless Ralcorp Begins Negotiations by September 19
ConAgra Foods recently reiterated its $94 per share, all-cash proposal to acquire Ralcorp Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:RAH). Ralcorp previously rejected this proposal, without dialogue with ConAgra Foods, on August 12, 2011.
Since August 12, ConAgra Foods has heard from many of Ralcorp’s shareholders who are urging Ralcorp to enter into negotiations with ConAgra Foods based on the strength of ConAgra Foods’ compelling $94 per share all-cash proposal. However, Ralcorp has continued to refuse ConAgra Foods’ attempts to engage privately and hold a constructive discussion regarding the strong value, strategic logic and certainty of its proposal.
As part of ConAgra Foods’ recent attempt to enter into discussions with Ralcorp, ConAgra Foods sent a presentation to Ralcorp’s Board of Directors, emphasizing the superior value and certainty of ConAgra Foods’ proposal. Despite repeated attempts by ConAgra Foods since its initial letter was sent to Ralcorp on March 22, 2011, Ralcorp has been unwilling to engage in discussions of any nature with ConAgra Foods. Ralcorp’s Board has reiterated that it is singularly focused on pursing a separation of its businesses as announced on July 14, 2011.
ConAgra Foods continues to believe its proposal of $94 per share in cash provides present value in excess of what Ralcorp can achieve on its own, including through its announced spin-off plans.

Gold has a varied history- It is used for more than making gold jewelry
Gold is a precious metal. Historically, it has been used for stores of value (bars) for jewelry, electronics, dentistry, and as actual money (coinage). It is a yellow element found in nuggets that can actually be ruby or black when divided.
It is the most malleable metal known. When other elements are it forms alloys. This will increase the hardness and can create exotic colors. Adding copper gives a redder color, iron more blue, platinum white, aluminum creates purple.
