  “initial investment of 12 million US dollars will enable the creation of 250 jobs. HP and RIM will assemble its products in association with the Argentine company Newsan ..”
  
  “The new investment takes advantage of the 2009 bill 26.539 which promotes the manufacture of high technology products in Tierra del Fuego through fiscal incentives. According to Argentine official figures so far 370 million dollars investments have opted for Tierra del Fuego”
  
  I think it's a good job opportunity, growth and development for your region of the Southern Cone.
  
  Considering that Malvinas Islands are part of the Argentine province Tierra del Fuego , congratulations on this achievement islanders !! :)

  It has been brought to our attention by several officials visiting our office in Buenos Aires that offensive language is commonly used by our spanish speaking staff.
  
  Such behavior, in addition to violating our policy, is highly unprofessional and offensive to both visitors and staff. All personnel will immediatly adhere to the following rules:
  
  1. Words like carajo, la puta madre o me da en el quinto forro and other such expressions will not be tolerated or used for emphasis or dramatic effect, no matterhow heated a discussion may become.
  
  2. You will not say la cagó when someone makes a mistake, or lo están cagando a pedos if you see someone being reprimended, or qué cagada when a major mistake has been made. All forms and derivations of the verb cagar are utterly innapropiate and unacceptable in our environment.
  
  3. No project manager, section head or administrator under any circumstances will be referred as hijo de mil puta, guanaco, mal parido, es una mierda or es una bosta.
  
  4. Lack of determination will not be referred to as falta de huevos nor will persons who lack initiative be referred to as cagón de mierda, pelotudo or boludo.
  
  5. Unusual or creative ideas offered by management are not to be referred as pajas mentales or pendejadas.
  
  6. Do not say cómo hincha las pelotas nor qué ladilla de mierda if a person is persistent; do not add cagó fuego, if a colleague is going through a difficult situation. Furthermore, you must not say cagamos (refer to item #2) nor nos rompieron el orto when a matter becomes excessively complicated.
  
  7. When asking someone to leave you alone, you must not say andate a la concha de tu hermana nor should you ever substitute May I help you? with ¿Qué mierda querés?
  
  8. Under no circumstances should you ever call your elderly industrial partners viejos chotos.
  
  9. Do not say me chupa un huevo when a relevant project is presented to you, nor should you ever answer sobame el nabo when your assistance is required.
  
  1. 10.You should
