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.

Oops! Wrong headline. Sorry about that. Lansing Dems have their lady parts in a tizzy over the State Human Resources honcho reminding employees to exercise caution while there are belligerents, Emma Goldman malcontents, Proudhon geriatrics, and every other form of AstroTurf that unions can herd to the Dome by the bus loads.

Jamie Foxx, was only talking about "I kill all the white people in the movie. How great is that?"

That, I am reasonably sure Lansing Dems are good with even though their highest ranking Democrat in the nation is half White. But, that just doesn't fit into the Democratic Party optics, does it?

Like flies to vinegar.

The Detroit News
Schools in the Taylor district will not host classes on Tuesday, according to officials. A large number of teachers have notified district officials they will not report to work.
"Due to the anticipated high absenteeism for tomorrow, Tuesday Dec. 11, the Taylor School District will be closed for students," said district officials in a released statement. "No students are to report to school. ..."
District officials did not say why so many of its teachers planned to be off on Tuesday,[snip]

Sure gains my support, and "respect" for their "profession".

A Message To Our Legislators - Beware False Choices

Breaking!!

Obama is making an unannounced visit to Michigan Monday.

Airspace reports a clearing for Airforce One on Monday at noon till 3pm. This means that the president will be in Michigan the day before our legislature finalizes, and Snyder signs off on the dotted line, Michigan's Freedom To Work (choose) legislation.

Obama has already weighed in on yesterday's legislative activity in Lansing:

"White House spokesman Matt Lehrich says Obama has long opposed right to work laws, "and he continues to oppose them now."
The spokesman says Obama believes the economy "is stronger when workers get good wages and good benefits, and he opposes attempts to roll back their rights." "

As usual with a misunderstood version of what 'rights' are.

Continue to support your legislators by writing, emailing, and calling.
