Your New Scoop Site

Welcome to Scoop!

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.

For support, questions, and general help with Scoop, email support@scoophost.com

Gov. Snyder Swings BIG GOVERNMENT Further Center-Left

The Democratic Party is like a mule, it has neither pride of ancestry nor hope of posterity. - Ignatius Donnelly

Yes, and so it goes with Governor Snyders' alleged reinvention of Michigan vision that clearly is choosing 'winners' and 'losers' in where Snyders' picked 'winners' will be using the Home Team for their doormat. That's not reinventing anything new that the congresscritters in DC have been doing to us American Citizens for decades. Folks, we've got 44 million of our fellow Americans on food stamps and a national unemployment level at 9.1%. Michigan remains 10.2% unemployed. So, where does Governor Snyder look for answers? Unemployed Foreign Nationals of course.

"He has long been interested in this topic and sees the value foreign nationals can play in the new economy," said Amy Cell, senior vice president of talent enhancement, at the Michigan Economic Development Corp.
The agency is helping to lead the effort.
"This is looking at what is really the best thing for Michigan when you look at the types of opportunities that can come about from immigrants, and the contributions they make in a community."
Elected on the heels of the state's decade-long recession, Snyder has included Global Michigan in his strategic -- and sometimes controversial -- plan to get the state back on the path to prosperity.

Ain't that a b!tch? Governor Snyder is still chasing after failed Granholm policy, just without the overseas trips.
