  • 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 .

    Recapping MRP 2009 State Convention: Day 1

    Official business?  Not much happening this weekend.  Sure, technically the delegates to the Michigan Republican State Convention will be electing Ambassador Ron Weiser to be the next Chairman of the Party.  Yep, they'll be selecting a variety of Vice Chairs and other Party positions, too, but most of those races sorted themselves out before activists and volunteers converged on the Capitol City.

    This Convention has been about something else entirely.  Energy.  The juice bouncing between the Radisson and the Lansing Center (the event is huge, with thousands of attendees, and spread over the two downtown buildings) has been unbelievable.  Folks are ready to brush off last November's setbacks and are pumped about getting to work on the future.  

    Welcome to the Convention.  

    The weekend started around 4pm when GOP candidates for various statewide posts hosted receptions to say hello to the out-staters making their way to the Capitol.  

    The newest gubernatorial candidate, Secretary of State Terri Lynn Land had a massive crowd.  Attorney General candidate and current Senate Majority Leader Mike Bishop had one going too.  So did AG candidate Bill Schuette, maybe the biggest of the afternoon.

    Big week this week for interviews with one today and two more on the horizon.

    Stay tuned Wednesday for the first interview in the state (so to speak) with the third Republican to jump into the Secretary of State's race.  We'll also be restarting our weekly segment featuring sit-downs with GOP lawmakers to explore their passions, legislative efforts and experiences at the state Capitol.  But first, today, we've got a second segment with the first SoS candidate to enter the race, Calhoun County Clerk and Register of Deeds Anne Norlander.

    We first caught up with Anne a little more than a month ago today.  Several weeks later in our discussion with Senator Michelle McManus we tackled a few very specific, very important issues that we hadn't broached with Anne so I wanted to go back and make sure we got a sense of where both candidates stood.

    So without further ado...
