Global Hunter Corp. (GBLHF.PK)

Global Hunter's focus is on strategic and base metals, with an advanced stage copper oxide project in Chile and a highly prospective molybdenum property in British Columbia, Canada. GBLHF teams are working on developing the Corona de Cobre property in Chile and the Rabbit south property in British Columbia.

Copper has excellent alloying properties. Copper alloys well with nickel. Copper and zinc forms brass. Copper and tin forms bronze. Copper is also an excellent conductor of heat and electricity. Copper has biostatic, antimicrobial, and fungicide capabilities, too. Transportation and music involves a lot of alloyed copper. This begins with ships that use copper or copper-nickel alloys for ships hulls because copper resists corrosion from saline water and attachment by sea organisms such as barnacles. Copper-zinc alloys form brass that is used in musical instruments, such as cymbals, trumpets and trombones. In electronics, copper is replacing aluminum in printed circuit boards. Copper is used in heat sinks, busbars, electromagnets, switches and integrated circuits.

Crown Equity Holdings, Inc. (CRWE)

In business, one has to deal with clients, so we need a clear way of communication. Earlier, all this communication was done either by emails or telephones which cost a lot, but as the rise of technology this communication can be possible at low rates - using VoIP service. Through VoIP, you can communicate cheaply with your clients, regardless of where they are and how long you talk.

The major reason for businesses to switch over to VoIP system is the huge savings on the regular phone bills every month. Using traditional telephones are much more expensive than VoIP telephony. Call rates and regular maintenance of traditional telephones are very expensive. And by using VoIP telephony, one can save 75 - 80% on the regular phone bills. VoIP calls are very cheap because VoIP technology sends voice over the internet in the form of data, so calls bypass the expensive PSTN copper voice telephone exchange, so, much of the termination cost is discarded. VoIP technology is especially useful for long distance and overseas calls.

Global Hunter Corp. (GBLHF.PK)

Copper is strong but malleable and an outstanding conductor. Its conductive qualities are linked to molecular structure, which in the case of copper, is quite loose. With 29 protons in each copper molecule's nucleus, it contains one free-floating electron which easily conducts heat and electricity through the metal. Copper electric wires work well for the same reason copper pans do. Copper, often praised as the ultimate culinary metal, has characteristics which make it very desirable for cooking. Because it is such a good heat conductor, heat is transferred from flame or coil throughout the pan base and up the sides.

PharMerica Corporation (NYSE:PMC), a national provider of institutional pharmacy and hospital pharmacy management services, announced that its Board of Directors, after careful consideration with its independent financial and outside legal advisors, voted unanimously to reject the unsolicited tender offer made by Omnicare (NYSE:OCR) to acquire PharMerica for $15.00 per share in cash. The Board determined that the offer undervalues PharMerica and is not in the best interests of PharMerica's stockholders. In addition to undervaluing PharMerica and its future prospects, the Board believes the offer is illusory because it is subject to significant regulatory and other uncertainty. The Board unanimously recommends that PharMerica stockholders reject Omnicare's offer and not tender their shares to Omnicare.

The Board noted that the value offered by Omnicare is unchanged from the unsolicited proposal it first made privately on July 19, 2011 and subsequently made public on August 23, 2011.

“The PharMerica Board of Directors is unanimous in its well-informed belief that Omnicare’s offer is lacking in both price and certainty of closing,” said Gregory S. Weishar, PharMerica Chief Executive Officer. “The PharMerica Board believes that the continued pursuit of our strategic plan will yield greater value for PharMerica stockholders than the Omnicare offer. Omnicare also remains stubbornly unwilling to provide any assurance to PharMerica stockholders that it will be in a position to complete a transaction in a timely manner at any price -- and despite its professed confidence in attaining regulatory approval refuses to take on the contractual risk of closing. The PharMerica Board strongly urges stockholders to reject Omnicare’s deficient offer and not to tender their shares to Omnicare.”

PharMerica Corporation is a leading institutional pharmacy services company servicing healthcare facilities in the United States. PharMerica operates institutional pharmacies in 44 states. PharMerica’s customers are institutional healthcare providers, such as nursing centers, assisted living facilities, hospitals and other long-term care providers.
