'Go Green With Your Green' Promoted in SSA/IRS Reporter

The IRS and SSA must think highly of APA's National Payroll Week. After all, it is being promoted in the Summer 2008 edition of the SSA/IRS Reporter.

As the article says, NPW ". . . celebrates the hard work of America's 156 million wage earners, the payroll professionals who pay them, and the organizations for which we all work." The article also encourages readers to go to the NPW website to learn more about the environmentally friendly ways to get your pay, as well as proposals by presidential candidates to bolster the economy.

Of course, one of the best reasons to go to the NPW website is to complete the short survey and be entered in the drawing for a free paycheck and a free trip for two to Las Vegas!


Fun Facts About the Fourth of July

We all know that July 4--our great nation's Independence Day--is a chance to celebrate America while rejoicing with family and friends and chowing down on some tasty barbecue . . . not to mention taking a day off from work. But there are other, lesser-known, facts about and relating to Independence Day.

For instance, did you know that 31 cities nationwide feature the word "liberty" in their names, and that four of those cities reside in Iowa? Or maybe you wanted to know how many cities in the U.S. feature the word "America" (hint: the answer is five). Other factual nuggets relating to Independence Day, including the most popular food items at Fourth of July barbecues (potato salad and potato chips) are available at the U.S. Census' "Facts for Features" website.
