  • 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

    People, I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried.

    This is what happens when you treat Detroit City Government with kid gloves.

    It's been long reported here by myself and other writers the tragedy that has befallen, what was at one time, a very beautiful and thriving metropolis within the State of Michigan, before the democrats had taken over.

    After that sea-change event had occurred, the you-know-what hit the fan.

    Dependency on government assistance shot up at an exponential rate.

    Democratic "leaders" succeeded in polarizing residents based upon race.

    The public school system reported an astounding 25% rate. As in the number of students who have successfully graduated. I'm not even going to mention those 25% who cannot even actually read or write, yet were still given a diploma anyway.

    People became accustomed to electing corrupt and inept leadership at the school board, city and county level.

    Taxes began to creep up. Then they began to pile up on one another.

    Those who had the means (read: the producing class), packed their bags and left town. Some just plain skipped the bag packing part and simply left.

    Those corrupt and inept elected officials were finding it progressively difficult even managing a simple budget.

    Oh, but it gets even better.
