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.

There is a great deal to cover on the tea party powwow in Mt. Pleasant today, but a little inspiration is in order.

With over three hundred tea party leaders representing over 50 organizations around the state, its safe to say the powwow was an icredible success. A happy standing room only crowd with max seating in place should drive home the point that the Tea Party is hardly gone.

Emery McClendon is an Indiana Tea type who has become a sought after speaker at tea party events and was the winner of Americans for Prosperity's 2010 "Activist of the Year" award. Enjoy.

The MI4CS United States Senate debate at Central Michigan University went on as planned today with a packed auditorium. Tea party folks from all over the state watched the 2 hour event that was primarily on issues of interest to conservatives and traditionalists.

Candidates present were Scotty Boman, Clark Durant, Gary Glenn, Randy Hekman, and Chuck Marino.

The debate was lively and each candidate did well enough, but each of them would also be hoping to have earned the straw poll top result afterward. That result will be announced later by the MI4CS.

I will have video available as soon as I can get that monster file processed.
