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.

I have little to say about an extended leg held up to catch an ignorant number nine's mistaken place in the universe for those few seconds.

The MSU-Wisconsin game in its entirety was about as great a game played that I have seen recently. The play was remarkable at times, and talent evident. Other than the take back from a toe in-bounds and a game changing catch, the officiating was semi-OK as well. The loss of course disappointing, and a kick in the face darkening up the one eye that could still see. A black eye of symmetry.

The other was from another hit to the head with the unique campaign of Herman Cain hitting the skids.

I would be lying to say that I was expecting him to quit. As the initial claims of harassment were obviously a measure of the times they were made in, and the Bialick claim no doubt contrived by the Obama reelection camp, it was strange to see yet another woman who had questionable mental and financial history being taken seriously enough to end Cain's campaign.

The take-away from this? Not even sure. It is certainly enough that Herman Cain's wife of 42 years had had enough. And not being used to the 24/7 anal exam given (only conservative) candidates by the media, said it was time to pack it in. I suppose the other alternative is there was something to what the last woman said, except that from what I DO KNOW about Cain, his history, and listening to him speak, it seems more likely he was overly concerned for her welfare at one time, and may have been a financial benefactor too long.

In any event, as of this writing, news reports suggest that he may be endorsing Newt Gingrich as early as this afternoon.

If so? No mas. I'm down.
