Dragi prieteni,

Anuntul de mai jos ne-a fost trimis de firma C.O.I.P. care ne invita la o seara financiara.

"Stim cu totii ca taxele in Canada sunt foarte mari si ca procentul pe care-l platim este cel mai mare dintre tarile din grupul G7!
Dar nu multi stim ca exista cai perfect legale de a plati cat mai putine taxe.

Asa cum spune David Voth "You must take the time to plan your taxes, so that they don't plan you! Learn these secrets, and feel the joy of knowing you are paying the least amount possible, with the safety of the law backing you up."
- iar noi va invitam la o intalnire cu tema:

"Secretul despre cum sa aplici si sa primesti $10000 (sau mai mult) tax credit, in 6 luni. Garantat si perfect legal!"

Presedintele fimei COIP, Robert Steen va tine prelegerea.

Orice persoana care face peste 60 mii pe an poate sa ia inapoi 10000 $CAD garantat si fara nici o problema, cu risc zero.
Pentru cei care fac bani mai multi (pe contract, etc) suma poate fi dubla.

Credem ca este o excelenta oportunitate de a afla informatii mai putin stiute despre secretele pe care Revenue Canada vrea ca noi sa nu le aflam.

Va va parea foarte bine ca ati venit si ati aflat aceasta informatie!

Iar cu aceasta ocazie, sa nu uitam de Networking-ul de care cu totii avem nespusa nevoie! Faceti cunostiinta cu cat mai multi participanti!

DATA: Wednesday, Nov 29, 6:30 PM reception, 6:45 PM start of the presentation
LOCATIE: 4950 Yonge Str, Suite 900 (Madison Centre, Yonge and Sheppard)
DIRECTII: 3 blocks north of Sheppard, on the west side of Yonge. The office is called "C.O.I.P."

Va asteptam cu drag,

Meeting – Lecture

“The mesosphere – the coldest place on Earth”

From Bulgarian born Physicist Prof. Marianna Shepherd PhD.

November 19, 2006, 12.30 noon, in the Lower hall of
The Macedono Bulgarian Orthodox Cathedral
“Sts. Cyril and Methody”-
237 Sackvill Street, (corner with Dundas),
Toronto, ON
M5A 3G1

Parking available on the streets around the Church and permitted on Sunday on the south site of Dundas Street opposite of the Church.

* * * * * *
Professor Marianna Shepherd - member of the Centre for Research on Earth & Space Science (CRESS) and Dept of Earth & Space Science & Engineering in York U.

Professors and researchers at York U are actively involved in a number of space-science satellite experiments. These include the WINDII (the Wind Imaging Interferometer) experiment on the UARS (Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite) and the SABER (Sounding the Atmosphere using Broadband Emission Radiometry) experiment on board the TIMED (Thermosphere, Ionosphere Mesosphere Energetics and Dynamics) satellite.

The lecture will describe the temperature structure of the Earth's middle atmosphere with an emphasis on the mesosphere and the mesopause region, 60-100 km height. The mesosphere plays role in two important atmospheric phenomena: a) the “ozone hole” in the stratosphere, influenced by particular processes in the mesosphere, and b) the global climate change, “Green house effect”, for which the mesosphere gives us the first indication.
