To help you figure things out, there is a Scoop Admin Guide which can hopefully answer most of your questions.
Some tips:
Most of the layout is changed in "Blocks", found in the admin tools menu
Features can be turned on and off, and configured, in "Site Controls" in the admin tools menu
Stories have an "edit" link right beside the "Full Story" link on an index page, and right beside the "Post a Comment" link on the full story page. They can also be edited by clicking the story title in the "Story List" admin tool
Boxes are what allow you to write new features for Scoop; they require a knowledge of the perl programming language to work with effectively, although you can often make small changes without knowing much perl. If you would like a feature added but cannot program it yourself, ScoopHost does custom Scoop programming as one of its services.
If you aren't sure where to look for a particular feature or piece of display, try the "Search Admin Tools" link in the admin tools menu.
real conservatives are less concerned about having their "turn" than making sure they have conservative "values" represented.
The Madison Project is supportive of two conservative candidates for the 43rd district. The previous post was one, and Jim Theinel of Waterford is another. The conservative stable will be full this next cycle.
Many have heard Jack Hoogendyk's 'immigrant's son' story of bootstrap success, and Americanism.
Jack stayed on path, and the traditions of conservatism, limited government, and personal responsibility are not solely limited to Dutch European settlers. One of a couple conservative contenders fighting to serve the 43rd District is Peru born and current clarkston resident Jose Aliaga.
