  • 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.

    It has crossed my mind. If growing government is considered "a success" by an alleged Republican dominated state with every lever of power in Lansing, then WhyTF would I want to remain here just to be fleeced?

    Michigan's population is slowly rebounding, but millionaires may not be sticking around for the state's revival. [Where is the "revival"?]

    Despite encouraging economic trends and a booming stock market, the state had 10,000 fewer millionaire households in 2013 than 2012, the Phoenix Global Wealth Monitor estimated in a report released this week.

    A Message To Our Legislators - Beware False Choices

    Sundays Divertere: Common Core is to Education as Obamacare is to...

    Remember folks, Rick Snyder wants youth enslaved to this Federal dumbing-down agenda.

    "I think the Common Core is a really important opportunity, and I think it's a good thing," Snyder said Monday in Detroit, where he was joined by U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan. "Unfortunately, it's been too much about politics. Too many people in our country ... are looking to fight someone for the sake of fighting."

    Deeming Passed In The State House?

    What the heck is going on?

    Bolger says its passed, Republicans McMillin and McBroom, and Democrat Abed say 'not so fast':

    "Rep. Tom McMillin (R-Rochester Hills), a frequent critic of Common Core, questioned after the session whether or not the body had officially adopted the resolution.

    "I'm not sure it did, there was not a vote," McMillin said. "I was there trying to get recognized and wasn't. As I heard it, they adopted the substitute from the Senate, they didn't say, 'all in favor, say aye,' because I was listening for that."

    McMillin and Rep. Ed McBroom (R-Vulcan) both approached the House clerk after the session to discuss the vote, with McBroom saying audibly he intended to vote no on the resolution had a vote been taken.

    Rep. Theresa Abed (D-Grand Ledge) posted on her official Facebook page after the session saying she had also intended to object to the resolution."

    If this is how Jase Bolger is playing this game, we can lump him in with the nerd as one who needs a shoe print black mark on his derrier political career.

    Common core, by the way is another way to guarantee the production of the worlds most impressive dullards by tying the hands of educators to a low-bar 'common' approach to education.

    Break out the kazoos and stay tuned.

    In Senate Committee sits Common Core

    Rick Snyder wants this in Michigan?  Why yes, yes he does.

    The provision was approved by the House last week prior to the Mackinac Policy Conference, where keynote speakers Michelle Rhee and Jeb Bush warned legislators that pulling back from the standards could have serious consequences.

    Gov. Rick Snyder, who has publicly supported Common Core, told MLive at the conference that he felt the controversy over the standards was "something we need to work through." Snyder endorsed the standards during an appearance with Secretary of Education Arne Duncan at a Detroit-area school last month.

    37 House R's are despicable and need to lose the seat in Lansing.

    Leave it to SE Michigan's Moscow on the Huron to go the way of control freak Mayor Doomberg.

    University of Michigan Health System and the University of Michigan Medical School will no longer peddle sugary drinks in their cafeterias and vending machines, banning the sale of everything from sodas to sweetened coffees.
    ....

    "It is part of our effort to model healthy behaviors," said Pete Barkey, a spokesman for the health system.

    And when U of M's "effort" does not include the use of my tax dollars, they are free to do whatever the Hell they want.

    But several other efforts to reduce access have bred backlash for going to far to restrict personal choice. Courts have ruled that New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg's push to ban the sale of sugary drinks in containers larger than 16 ounces was illegal.

    The Left is "pro choice" when comes to killing babies and Teh Ghey marriage.  Have a soft drink?  Forgettaboutit.  All those mentally ill cretins are fully deserving to be mocked.

    That babe ^ is still the Big Gulp of Truth.
