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

A Message From The Pope To Our Michigan Senators

Voting to enact the medicaid expansion in Michigan is a no-no according to the new Pope.

According to the Schoolcraft Republicans, Pope Francis says:

"In the Aparecida Document, a document that represents a joint statement by Latin American church leaders but presented by Francis in 2007, the leaders stated, "we should commit ourselves to `eucharistic coherence,' that is, we should be conscious that people cannot receive holy communion and at the same time act or speak against the commandments, in particular when abortions, euthanasia, and other serious crimes against life and family are facilitated. This responsibility applies particularly to legislators, governors, and health professionals.""

And what pray tell, does medicaid fund?

I happen to know it follows the new rules and costs that I and my wife are being FORCED to endure in additional premiums under the 'Women's Health Mandate' on the insurance policies for our business. If we are going to pay for insurance, it MUST cover abortive procedures.

But at this point We have no choice if we wish to offer insurance for our employees (as we have for several years now), and pray that a Supreme court challenge already on its way will offer the relief we seek.

But YOU DO.

No amount of "Its the law - live with it" will make it right.

Keep that in mind.
