A joik (also spelled yoik), is a traditional Sami form of song. Originally, joik referred to only one of several Sami singing styles, but in English the word is often used to refer to all types of traditional Sami singing. According to music researchers, joik is one of the longest living music traditions in Europe, and is the folk music of the Sami people. Joiking is the Sami way of singing. The Samis call the western way of singing lavlodh. Here is a link where you can find a lot of interesting information about Samis and joiks among other things.
Here a map illustrating the Sami areas in the Nordic countries. There are Samis in both Norway, Finland, Sweden and Russia. They all feel related, even if they speak different Sami languages, and they have never consider borders to be anything more than some lines drawn on paper.
The sound of a joik is comparable to the traditional chanting of some Native American cultures. With the Christianization of the Sami, joiking was condemned as sinful. Today joiking is still alive and is also used as a source of inspiration and an element in contemporary Sami music. Joik is traditionally chanted a cappella, but joiks today may be accompanied by a drum (though not a Sami drum which is used for ceremonial purposes only!) or other musical instruments.
Joiking has not always been appreciated as a form of music, however. At one time it was not even called music. As early as 1609, the king of Denmark and Norway, Christian IV, announced that anyone practising Sami witchcraft would be sentenced to death. The Church viewed joiking as witchcraft, right up until recently. There are still people living who consider that you should not chant a joik in a church.
The Sami world view is based on shamanism. The joik creates an emotional bond between people, animals and nature. The Samis explain: "We don't joik about something, as you do when you sing. We say that we joik something. Then we become a part of what we are joiking."
Nowadays the Sami joik is not condemned anymore by the royalties of Norway and Sweden. A young musician, Inga-Maarit Gaup-Juuso even got an invitation to perform joiks on the National Day celebration of Sweden in Stockholm this year 2014 on June 6th. That was a great honor to Inga-Maarit Gaup-Juuso, but also a way for the royalties to show their approval of Sami joiks these days. You can look at her performance together with the Swedish singer Loreen here. Loreen, the dark-haired Swedish singer was the winner of European Song Contest in 2013. Inga-Maarit Gaup-Juuso was born in Enontekiö, Lapland. Her mother comes from Kautokeino in Norway and her father from Enontekiö in Finland. Inga-Maarit has performed joiks to the royalties of Norway and Monaco some years ago during their visits to Lapland, Finland.
Nils-Aslak Valkeapää was a well-known modern Sami writer, poet, musician, and artist using joik in his work. He performed at the opening ceremony of the 1994 Winter Olympic Games in Lillehammer, Norway.
Nils-Aslak Valkeapää was born in Enontekiö in Finnish Lapland and he died in 2001. Valkeapää was born to a family of traditional reindeer herders, but was trained as a school teacher. He lived at the Finnish border to Norway in the upper-North of Finland.
The story of Akanidi, the daughter of the Sun
Akanidi, the daughter of the Sun flew through the skies and watched the Earth from above. There was a warm sunbeam coming from her to reindeer on the pastures, to the animals in the deep forests and to the fish in the seas and oceans. Akanidi understood all the animals, but she was not acquainted with people yet. She just observed the people; that they sometimes were really happy, but sometimes they looked so unhappy. And sometimes people were really nasty to each other. Akanidi was wondering how the humans could become happy all the time.
As Akanidi went home to have a good night's sleep she asked her mother, the Sun, for permission to go down to earth and live among people. But the Sun said; "Don't you have enough space here? What would there be to see down there? Here you have the clouds to play among and you can dance with the sunbeams and you are even allowed to sing beautiful melodies together with the winds." Akanidi answered, she was tired of living up in the skies and now she wanted to move down to Earth.
The next morning Akanidi was sent to live on the Earth in a hut together with an old man and his wife. The Sun had sent her daughter to an isolated little island. Akanidi could not see anything but the old man and his wife and their modest hut. The old couple did not have any children of their own.
Times went by and Akanidi grew up to a young woman. Her parents gave her beautiful clothes to wear. When Akanidi looked at herself in the mirror, she started to sing happily. Akanidi just danced and sang happily. The old couple listened to her song and watched her dancing and their hearts were filled with great love.
One day the white-haired parents of Akanidi said to her: "Your time has come, my child. You have to go and live together with other people. Let your heart be helpful and loving, let it warm other people's hearts."
And the old man took Akanidi with him and travelled to the nearest Sami village and left her in the first hut. Akanidi entered the hut and the people immediately paid attention to her coming. Everyone was drawn to Akanidi.
Akanidi spent some time with the people in this village and she taught people of the village to decorate their clothes with pearls, interesting colors and spectacular patterns. Akanidi showed them the pictures of stars, circles, birds' footsteps and beautiful stones sparkling in the sun. She moved from hut to hut singing and dancing and telling stories. She taught the people of the village to sing hunting-joiks, sea songs and sun melodies.
But there was also envy among the people of the village. Everyone did not like happiness to spread among the people of the village. And they wanted to get rid of Akanidi, but the Sun was all the time watching over her daughter protecting her.
Some elderly people thought that they could get rid of Akanidi by throwing a big stone on her. So one day as Akanidi was sitting in a hut teaching the children how to make buttons from seashells, the envious people came suddenly in to the hut and threw a big stone on Akanidi. Akanidi took a deep last breath and sang the last lines from her favourite joik. When she had stopped joiking she disappeared with the smoke from the fire through the hole in the hut up to the skies. And she never returned back to Earth. But her joiks, dances and spectacular pictures are still in the minds of people. People are still teaching the skills of Akanidi to their children. When doing this their hearts melt and they find happiness.
This story is true. Everything happened when the people of the North met Akanidi, the daughter of the Sun, for the first time.

Leslie Mann has confirmed that she needed antihistamines to kiss her on-screen husband in The Other Woman.
Mann appeared with co-stars Cameron Diaz and Kate Upton on Alan Carr: Chatty Man, which airs this Friday at 10 p.m. on the U.K.'s Channel 4.
Asked about her kiss with Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, Mann said, "Nikolaj is very handsome so I was excited about being able to kiss him ... I was like, 'YES, this is going to be awesome!'
"I went to kiss him and I was excited and I went in and kissed him and it hurt because he had this scruff and then I broke out in hives."
She added, "They thought maybe it was his aftershave so they rinsed him off and we kissed again and same thing, hives.
"So every time I had to kiss Nikolaj I had to take a Claritin because I'm allergic to Nikolaj! It was such a drag."
Diaz added of her relationship with her co-stars, "We're like a bunch of puppies in a basket! It's why I love this movie so much and why I wanted to make it is because what we're trying to put out there into the world is that women can be there for one another.
"Women don't have to hate other women. You can celebrate other women's beauty. We are there for one another when we need one another, we help each other through things, especially tough times, even when it's the same man that all three just broke up with!
"We just did this premiere and already online it's saying, 'Kate 1 Cameron 1' ... that's the way they're trying to set it up, you're [Kate] the young girl and I'm the old lady."

Darkness is the first single from a new project I've started with Matt Van Schie from Australian band Van She. We met in Parisian club The Social Club in 2010 where we were both DJing. We hit it off and started sending tracks to each other, getting to know each other. Then Matt was working on this song, and I said 'send me the parts', so he did. I did some stuff on it, he loved it and I said, "let's start a band". Du Tonc was born.
It's quite interesting being on different sides of the planet; Skype is our new best friend. It was exciting when I'd work on a section, send it to Matt and he would work on a section and send it back. It was a bit like Christmas waiting for a present to come in the post. It was very easy putting it together, I think, because we had time on our own to work out parts. No pressure. The only challenging bit was when I had to mix it. Would have been quite handy having Matt in the room with me, and would probably have been mixed quicker.

'Supernatural' visit
Supernatural forces swept into town this weekend for Creation Entertainment's first-ever Boston "Supernatural'' convention. The stars of The CW fantasy series gathered at the Hyatt Regency Cambridge to mingle with fans, sign autographs, and, in their downtime, check out the local scenery. Actor Richard Speight Jr., who plays the Trickster and the archangel Gabriel on the show, told us he hadn't spent a lot of time in Boston, but knew enough about the city to head straight to the Union Oyster House with his costar Matt Cohen and convention favorite Jason Manns. "I know it's touristy, but still. It's phenomenal,'' Speight gushed. His timing was impeccable. During dinner, Aerosmith screamer Steven Tyler showed up, and Speight compared the fan reaction in the restaurant to "Beatlemania.'' The actor, whose other credits include "Thank You for Smoking,'' "Band of Brothers,'' and "Jericho,'' was a tourist again Saturday, having lunch in Harvard Square with "Supernatural'' leading men Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles. The convention ended yesterday.

Enabling Data Footprint Reduction: Storage Capacity Optimization
If you're like most organizations, you're drowning in data. There is more information to move, process, and store in a given amount of time and within a certain budget than ever before.
But the good news is that networks are now faster and storage has more capacity. This white paper explores different data reduction techniques, their characteristics, caveats, and benefits to address your various needs, including:
- Archiving
- Data Compression
- Deduplication
- Thin provisioning

London: Singer-songwriter Liam Gallagher, has hired the same lawyer, who handled singer Paul McCartney's divorce, as he looks to move on from his broken marriage to actress Nicole Appleton.
The 40-year-old has hired Fiona Shackleton, who handled the former Beatles star's divorce from Heather Mills, to represent him, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
The couple's marriage started to fall apart after an American journalist, Liza Ghorbani, claimed that Galagher has fathered a love child with her.
"Hiring Fiona Shackleton is a huge statement of intent from Liam," a source told The Sun.
"Divorce had been mentioned but until now nobody knew he would actually go through with it. Now the wheels are in motion. Nicole will be devastated. Shackleton is one of the best.
"She is incredibly shrewd in the courtroom. On top of that, she represented Liam's all-time hero Paul McCartney. There is every chance this could turn nasty and it looks like Liam will not be giving up his massive fortune easily," added the source.
It is also said that the singer has moved on quickly with the preparation for divorce proceedings because of his blossoming romance with Debbie Gwyther.
"They are 100 percent together and completely in love. As it stands they are living in limbo, hiding away, and unable to properly go public with how they feel," the source further said.
"But once divorce proceedings begin Debbie will feel more reassured that Liam is genuinely serious about her and they can start planning for their future together.
"With that in mind he is going to sit down with his family in the next few days and tell them just how much he cares about Debbie," added the source.

CORVALLIS - The Oregon State University Foundation has received $455,000 from the M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust to support a new X-ray diffraction facility for materials research at the university.
The Murdock grant will be used to purchase two state-of-the-art X-ray diffraction machines, which will be the centerpieces of the new facility.
OSU researchers currently use less-effective equipment held by individual departments. Centralization of the new equipment will be more cost-efficient and of greater benefit to the entire OSU research community, officials say.
OSU President Paul G. Risser says the proposed facility has drawn unprecedented financial backing from within the university. Areas of the university including the College of Science, the College of Pharmacy, the Center for Advanced Materials Research, the Center for Gene Research and Biotechnology, the Environmental Health Science Center, and the Marine-Fresh Water Biomedical Center have all demonstrated a strong commitment to the new X-ray diffraction facility.
P. Shing Ho, professor of biochemistry and biophysics at Oregon State and project director of the Murdock grant, uses X-ray diffraction in his research on the assembly of the DNA molecule as a solid material. Depending on research results, DNA could be used in the production of new materials. Ho says OSU is internationally recognized for its research on the structure of DNA.
Arthur Sleight, the Milton Harris Professor of Materials Science at OSU, is co-director of the Murdock grant. Sleight was one of a team of researchers who discovered zirconium tungstate, a compound that contracts rather than expands when heated. This discovery was hailed by Discover magazine as one of the top scientific advancements of 1996.
The new facility will also help in recruiting new faculty members in the area of protein molecule research, important to biomedical research.
The M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust was created by the will of the late M.J. (Jack) Murdock, a co-founder of Tektronix, Inc. of Beaverton, Ore. The trust's mission is to enrich the quality of life in the Pacific Northwest by providing grants to organizations that seek to strengthen the region's educational and cultural base in creative and sustainable ways. Oregon State University and the OSU Foundation have received more than $4 million from the Murdock Trust.

text: Those who hold themselves under the sway of ignorance, who serve the flesh and neglect the Atman or the real Self, are not able to perceive the effulgent and indestructible nature of their Soul; hence they fall into the realm where the Soul light does not shine. The Isha Upanishad shows that the only hell is absence of knowledge. As long as man is overpowered by the darkness of ignorance, he is the slave of Nature and must accept whatever comes as the fruit of his thoughts and deeds. When humans stray into the path of unreality, the Sages declare that he destroys himself; because he who clings to the perishable body and regards it as his true Self must experience death many times.When a man performs actions clinging blindly to his lower desires, then his actions bind him to the plane of ignorance or the plane of birth and death; but when the same actions are performed with surrender to God, they purify and liberate him.Swami Paramananda

Merten Addresses Mason Community Regarding War, Terrorism Possibilities
Posted: February 19, 2003 at 1:00 am, Last Updated: November 30, -0001 at 12:00 am
Editor's note: Due to the inclement weather, this story is being rerun today.
Editor's note: This letter, written by President Alan Merten, was also distributed to George Mason faculty and staff members via e-mail.
With the possibility of war on the horizon and terrorism alerts daily in the news, many of us are feeling more than usually stressed. At times like these, it is more important than ever to remember that we are part of a learning community, and as such, are committed to freedom of speech, treating all our members with respect and civility, and maintaining a safe and free campus environment.
During 9/11 and its aftermath, I was deeply impressed by the way the George Mason community pulled together and supported each other. Our campuses suffered very few of the kinds of bias-related incidents that occurred elsewhere. This is a track record we want to maintain and encourage. Remember how important it is to not repeat rumors. Check out the validity of any information you are hearing. George Mason's Mason on Alert web site, accessible from our web page, will carry information relating to what's happening on campus and will be updated regularly. Should an emergency occur, information will also be available on GMU-TV (Channel 19 and 23 on campus, Channel 18 in Fairfax County and Reston, and Channels 93 and 75 in Alexandria), at the Johnson Center Information Desk, and at the switchboard.
Many of our students, faculty, and staff are already being affected by the possibility of war, with either themselves or members of their families being called to active service. Students in this position should call Student Accounts at (703) 993-2484 and also talk to their faculty adviser or department chair about academic decisions. Faculty and staff should contact their supervisors and also call Human Resources and ask to speak to their generalist. The Counseling Center is open to anyone who feels the need for extra help at any time.
You should know that, while the university is under no specific threat, the University Police have increased their presence on our campuses, particularly in regard to any large events. The university also has an emergency response plan in place that was developed in conjunction with surrounding police and fire jurisdictions to deal with a variety of crises.
In this difficult time, we are fortunate to be part of a university campus. We have faculty experts knowledgeable about the issues, ranging from historical context to conflict resolution. Our diverse community provides a wealth of ideas and perspectives. We will all draw on these resources as we seek to understand what is happening to this nation and the world. Over the coming months, the Provost's Office, University Life, student groups, and academic departments will be organizing panel discussions, dialogue sessions, and other ways we can come together, exchange ideas, and learn.

When the Correction Zone holds, it says something about the buyers and sellers. Specifically:
- Traders, who bought on the break at 76.20, had little risk initially and now have great trade location, with the potential for a trend-like move. This allows them to manage their stop loss with little risk of capital. A logical stop would be on a move below the 50% (say, at 76.35) or even at breakeven (76.20).
- Traders who missed the break higher at 76.20 can buy against the 38.2% retracement level at 76.505. They do not have as great an entry location, but they still have limited risk (a stop loss can be set below the 50% retracement at 76.35).
- Traders can assume the move higher is being supported by well-capitalized traders. Buyers took control on the break, held the 38.2% retracement and are not showing signs of relinquishing control.
- Sellers could not take back control. Even the seller at the 76.793 high should not feel confident with a short position. Shorts are now trading against the trend.
- When buyers are confident and can define and limit risk, they are more likely to buy. When sellers are scared and face the possibility of a trend move against them, they are likely to join the buying at some point. The combination creates another buying imbalance.
This is what happened in the case of this USD/JPY move, and the market made another trend move to a new high at 77.177.
Trends that are strong will tend to repeat this pattern. In "Continuing the trend" (below), the chart shows the next move higher. The correction from the top at 77.179 is a stronger move as the price breaks below the defined trendline (incidentally, on an economic release). However, when the price moves toward the Correction Zone (green area between 76.608 and 76.743), buyers emerge once again and force the market higher.
A new, stronger leg to the upside is established as more traders realize the positive trend signals (rebounding quickly above the 38.2% and reestablishing support along the trendline). That trend move ends 106 pips higher at 77.802.

Honoring Local Volunteer!
Families from near and far flocked to the Andover Wetlands this past Saturday to take part in the Annual Andover Kids Fishing Contest.
The contest, which drew participants from all over the Southern Tier, is now in its 20th year thanks to volunteer Judy Scott who started the program in 1991 to help raise awareness for the Andover Pond, Dam and Wetlands.
Ms. Scott successfully advocated for $250,000 in state grant money and in-kind services that has resulted in restoration of the pond, dam and wetlands as an animal habitat and hunting and fishing area.
Pictured here: Senator Catharine Young presents Judy Scott with a Proclamation that celebrates the 20th Anniversary of the fishing contest and recognizes Ms. Scott's efforts in ensuring that the Andover Wetlands, that people rely on for drinking, fishing and swimming, remains clean and safe.

Good evening,
I come to ask for support for something that we of the groups are suffering a little. The groups forum is very important and as such should be kept clean and organized such as the world forum or the community forum.
Thinking well, we already have these new forums running at 2 months and there is still in the forum of the Portvcale a test post that I did to verify the operation. What is my astonishment when I learned that the moderator of my group could not delete my post? I still asked him if he was playing with me, but the truth is that a week later the post was still there. Today 2 months later still nobody can moderate the forums of the groups and I can not understand how they delete a functional forums and put into operation forums that neither gives an option to delete posts. Is it more important to put likes in comments and have followers on osm than delete and close posts?
The question I ask is: how would the community forums work without moderators??
This is no joke! I already wrote about this in the Portuguese forum and one staff senior closed topic with the answer: "The joy of some is the sadness of others!!"
Please do not quit this !! This is serious.

Back in my vegetarian days, bacon made me ill. The smell of it was so sickening that, when I was feeling really sick and just wanted to throw up to (hopefully) feel better, I'd beg my mom to cook bacon. The smell was sure to induce vomiting.
Then, as I've said many times, I saw the err in my vegetarian ways and rediscovered the glorious food that is bacon. Now I can eat a pound in one sitting (I said "can" not "do" :)) and think it makes just about everything by chocolate better.
Yes, I am that addicted.
Apparently, the processed pork is so powerful it can even bring a vegan back from the other side. This story talks about how Kate Moss snagged her vegan husband with a bacon sandwich (which she cooked in her underwear).

Stealing from a dragon's hoard is never a bright idea, but stealing from a baby dragon's hoard can lead to tears, sniffles, and smoke in the middle of a busy marketplace.
Jerney, a witch who does work for a well-known thieves' guild, knows exactly who's to blame for the brazen theft. With no other choice in the matter, he quickly becomes entangled in trying to help the baby dragon. What he doesn't expect is that his own heart might get stolen in the process.

As usual, the email does a good job at generating outrage at those liberals in government who have backed away from promises and are, in general, ruining our American way of life... If only the 'facts' they list were actually, well, facts.
This one is about Social Security; how democrats from Eisenhower to Carter & Clinton have systematically screwed the American people out of promises and benefits.
Of course, all it takes is a quick visit to the handy snopes site to debunk this stuff. But again, what good conservative worth his salt would want to confuse truth with a caricature of history?
Well, I've taken the time to respond, point-for-point, to the emails assertions. As you'll see, 99% of those points are outright wrong. Even the ones that have a modicum of truth to them cast the villains as the evil liberals. I take a bit of joy noting that it was Reagan who signed into law the legislation that started taxing SS annuities... the one item listed that is partially true.
Anyway, read for yourself. If you want more details, check out snopes and here the Office of the Chief Actuary, Social Security Administration, May 20, 1997. My research (if you can call looking at a couple of websites research) are in red.
Subject: SOCIAL SECURITY ROBBERYApparently, this is being sent around a lot. Another example of right-wingers trying to re-write history to generate outrage. Kudos to my buddy who sent it to me so I could debunk this stuff... at least on this site.
If there is anyone out there that doesn't know this, this is an excellent visual presentation....Now it is too late to be angry, just remember who did this when you vote....
Thank you for sharing Social Security, How It Got Stolen with Our Social Security
Franklin Delano. Roosevelt
32nd. President, Democrat
Terms of Office March 4, 1933, to April 12, 1945
GOOD TO HERE ! Our Social Security
Franklin Delano. Roosevelt (Terms of Office March 4, 1933, to April 12, 1945), a Democrat, introduced the Social Security (FICA) Program.
He promised:
1.) That participation in the program would be completely voluntary,
FALSE: There was no provision in the Social Security Act of 1935 (nor has there ever been any provision) for the payment of Social Security payroll taxes to be voluntary. Since the inception of the Social Security program, the law has required that payroll taxes for persons working at jobs covered by Social Security "shall be collected by the employer of the taxpayer by deducting the amount of the tax from the wages as and when paid."
2.) That the participants would only have to pay 1% of the first $1,400 of their annual incomes into the program,
MOSTLY FALSE/misleading: Social Security taxes were never limited to the first $1,400 of annual income, nor was there any provision in the Social Security Act of 1935 to permanently fix the tax rate at 1%. The Social Security Act of 1935 set the original rate at 1% of the first $3,000 of annual income, with provisions to gradually increase that rate to 3% over the next twelve years.
3.) That the money the participants elected to put into the program would be deductible from their income for tax purposes each year,
FALSE: The original Social Security Act of 1935 specifically stated that Social Security payroll taxes were not to be allowed as income tax deductions. Social Security payroll taxes have never been deductible from income for tax purposes, either when the program was originally instituted or at any time since.
4.) That the money the participants put into the Independent 'Trust Fund' rather than into the General operating fund, and therefore, would only be used to fund the Social Security Retirement Program, and no other Government program, and ...
PARTIALLY FALSE: The Social Security Trust Fund was established in 1939 to receive monies collected for Social Security through payroll taxes. The monies in this fund are managed by the Department of the Treasury; they are not, nor have they ever been, put into the "general operating fund." However, the government can "invest" Social Security funds by lending them to itself, then spending that money on programs not related to Social Security. The government "pays back" this money when the Social Security program redeems the bonds - with interest. Every retirement fund works like this. You money does not sit in a bank, it is used by others and repayed (hopefully) with interest.
5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income.
Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are now receiving a Social Security check every month -- and then finding that we are getting taxed on 85% of the money we paid to the Federal government to 'Put Away' -- you may be interested in the following:
PARTIALLY FALSE: It is true that Social Security benefits were not originally considered taxable income. However, that status was not due to any promise or act on the part of President Roosevelt, nor was it specified in the Social Security Act (or any other law); it was the result of a series of rulings by the Treasury Department in 1938 and 1941 that excluded Social Security benefits from federal income taxation. Those rulings were overriden by amendments to the Social Security act enacted in 1983.
Dwight David Eisenhower
34th. President, Republican,
Term Of Office: January 20, 1953 to January 20, 1961 Insert by Vincent Peter Render,
If I recall correctly, 1958 is the first year that Congress voted to remove funds from Social Security and put it into the General Fund for Congress to spend.
If I recall correctly, it was a democratically Controlled Congress.
From what I understand, Congress logic at that time was that there was so much money in Social Security Fund that it would never run out / be used up for the purpose it was intended / set aside for.
FALSE - a complete fabrication as far as I can tell. SS funds are INVESTED (oftentimes loaned to the gov). However, those investments (loans) pay interest and the trust fund as earned more than an average of 8% annually since 1960. The fact that the gov borrows against the trust fund (paying it interest) is no different than a company investing it's pension funds in stocks/bonds. This is another example of FALSE statements being used to stir-up the masses...
Lyndon Baines Johnson 36th.President, Democrat
Term Of Office: November 22, 1963 to January 20, 1969
Question: Which Political Party took Social Security from the Independent 'Trust Fund' and put it into the General Fund so that Congress could spend it?
Answer: It was Lyndon B. Johnson (Democrat, Term Of Office: November 22, 1963 to January 20, 1969) and thedemocratically Controlled House and Senate.
SS funds are NOT part of the general fund... The requirements for how the Social Security Trust Fund is to be financed and invested have not changed since the fund's inception in 1939. The reference to Lyndon Johnson indicates that someone was probably confused by a change implemented at the end of the Johnson administration (1969) that altered how the fund was accounted for in the federal budget but did not change the actual operations of the fund itself.
Question: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax Deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding?
Answer: The Democratic Party.
FALSE - Social Security withholding has never been deductible from income for tax purposes. The original Social Security Act of 1935 specifically stated that monies paid into Social Security via payroll taxes were not to be allowed as income tax deductions.
William Jefferson Clinton
(Bill Clinton)
42nd. President
Democrat Term of Office: January 20, 1993 to January 20, 2001 Albert Arnold Gore, Jr.
(Al Gore)
45th. Vice President
Democrat Term of Office: January 20, 1993 to January 20, 2001
Question: Which Political Party started taxing Social Security annuities?
Answer: The Democratic Party, with Albert Arnold Gore, Jr. (Al Gore) [Vice President Term of Office: January 20, 1993 to January 20, 2001] casting the 'tie-breaking' deciding vote as President of the Senate, while he was Vice President of the US
Not completely FALSE, but manipulated to make it look like dems did something 'bad'.
Prior to 1984, income derived from Social Security benefits was exempt from taxation. Amendments to the Social Security Act passed by Congress in 1983 allowed for 50% of Social Security benefits to be considered taxable income for taxpayers whose total income exceeded specified thresholds. Responsibility for this change cannot fairly be assigned to either political party. The idea originated with a proposal issued by the Greenspan Commission, which had been appointed by President Ronald Reagan, a Republican. The amendments were passed by a House of Representatives in which the Democrats held a clear majority of the seats (296‐166), but the proposed amendments received "Yea" votes from members of both parties, and they were signed into law by President Reagan.
James Earl Carter, Jr (Jimmy Carter)
39th. President, Democrat
= Term of Office: January 20, 1977 to January 20, 1981
Question: Which Political Party decided to start giving Annuity payments to immigrants?
Answer: That's right! James Earl Carter, Jr. (Jimmy Carter) (Democrat, Term of Office: January 20, 1977 to January 20, 1981) and the Democratic Party.
Immigrants moved into this country, and at age 65, began to receive Social Security payments! The Democratic Party gave these payments to them, even though they never paid a dime into it!
No one — whether he be a citizen, immigrant, or illegal alien — is eligible to collect Social Security benefits unless he (or someone else, such as a parent or spouse) has paid into the system. Someone has confused Social Security itself with Supplemental Security Income (SSI) — the latter is a federal welfare program "designed to help aged, blind, and disabled people, who have little or no income" by providing "cash to meet basic needs for food, clothing, and shelter." Immigrants can qualify for SSI benefits under certain conditions, but SSI is financed by general revenues and not Social Security taxes.
Then, after violating the original contract (FICA), the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take your Social Security away!
And the worst part about it is uninformed citizens believe it!
If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of Awareness will be planted and maybe changes will evolve... Maybe not, some Democrats are awfully sure of what isn't so. But it's worth a try. How many people can YOU send this to?
Actions speak louder than bumper stickers..
Maybe pass the link to this blog entry around … of course, the truth never stood in the way of a good-ol'e conservative world-view. Still, pass it around. Who knows, maybe someone will actually read it.
