  • 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

    If For NO Other Reason

    This particular list is a reason that Bobby Schostak ought not be the Republican Party chair for Michigan.

    • JENNIFER GRANHOLM FOR ATTY GENERAL 509309-CAN DIRECT MR ROBERT I SCHOSTAK PO BOX 267 PARTNER-SCHOSTAK BROTHERS SOUTHFIELD MI 48037-0267 12/14/99 $1,000.00
    • JENNIFER GRANHOLM FOR ATTY GENERAL 509309-CAN DIRECT ROBERT I SCHOSTAK 25800 NORTHWESTERN HWY EXECUTIVE-SCHOSTAK BROTHERS SOUTHFIELD MI 48075 10/30/98 $1,000.00
    • JENNIFER M GRANHOLM FOR GOVERNOR 510278-GUB DIRECT ROBERT I. SCHOSTAK PO BOX 267 PARTNER-SCHOSTAK BROTHERS SOUTHFIELD MI 48037-0267 04/21/04 $3,400.00

    OH yeah.. Bi-partisanship.  Enough to go on by itself, but lets add to it with

    Democrat LAURENCE DEITCH received $2000 from each of the Schostak Brothers in his re-election for regent.

    In 2008.  Why?

    One thing that has become clear in the last couple of years is that pandering to the other side brings nothing but misery. Seeding the other side with financial resources makes it harder for OUR guys to succeed.  Does it ultimately matter if the chair is a good fundraiser, if our donations go to fight the beast he has fed in the past?

    Consider this merely a start of a fact based critique.

    Expect more.

    Does THIS:
    Moroun, 84, and Stamper, 62, were sent to jail Thursday as punishment for their company being found in contempt of court. Judge Prentis Edwards said Detroit International Bridge Co. repeatedly failed to follow his orders to work with the state of Michigan and get the Gateway Project done.

    have anything to do with THIS?
    The son of a Detroit judge who is set to impose contempt of court penalties against Ambassador Bridge owner Matty Moroun has been appointed to the bench by Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder.

    Somebody has some splainin to do.

    It likely won't be Mr Moroun.

    For the sake of integrity in the bench, perhaps in the executive branch in Lansing, I want to see a really good reason.  I am really seriously shaken by this if it is true.

    I know one fan of this site whom I hope would take a look at this.  I pray there is no quid pro quo, but for the life of me I cannot get over what would have to be the crappiest coincidence in Michigan political history.
