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.

The contemptible miscreants who are attempting to subvert the constitution on matters of personal health and liberty, now want to make sure they have as many like minded individuals pulling the election levers as possible.

Conyers has said:

"The United States may have the most restrictive disenfranchisement policy in the world. Such prohibitions on the right to vote undermine both the voting system and the fundamental rights of ex-offenders." ` Congressional address, Mar. 16, 2005

Huh.. Pretty tall statement. In the world? Really??

Indeed, as we in Michigan have a reasonably forgiving election law with regard to felons, is it not yet another state's right issue being attacked? In fact, even the bill itself acknowledges that there are procedures in most cases to petition for the return of the voting responsibility and privilege. There ARE ways..
