    • 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

    ScoopHost.com is currently running Scoop version Undeterminable from .

    Fighting to The "Last Drop of Blood"

    Hello All,

    CNN reports that the Taliban vows to fight "To The Last Drop of Blood".  Sounds like to me to be reminiscent of the Japanese at the end of WWII.  If you remember the Japanese vowed to fight to the very last man, women, & child, even to the point of committing suicide either through "Seppuku" or "Kamikaze".  It is the whole reason why President Truman decided to use the Atom Bomb.

    Some of you know that I really like the movie "Patton".  There is a long story as to why, that I'm not going to go into here, just know it has made a big impact on my life.  In addition to the movie I have done considerable research into "General Patton", his life, family history, and his fighting philosophy.  Although very controversial, Patton had one view that most agreed on,  "To defeat your enemy you must take away his ability to wage war".
