  • 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.

    It Took Only 24 Years In Office!?!?

    Simply amazing what sells with West side state voters.  Whirlpool Trust Fund baby Fred Upon, Father of Squash the Conservative Movement in the '90s, has the insolence to float this air-biscuit out on the voter class.

    "It was never my goal for Washington to decide what type of light bulbs Americans should use," Upton admits now. "The public response on this issue is a clear signal that markets - not governments - should be driving technological advancements. I will join my colleagues to vote yes on a bill to protect consumer choice and guard against federal overreach."

    Never your goal?  Hogwash, Fred!  You and your gun grabbing, multimillionaire commie friend crafted the damn legislative bulb ban and Big Government Dubya signed it into Law.  You all knew exactly what you were doing.

    Upton CD-6 voters, embarrassed yet?

    Fred Upton, Thomas Edison and Whirlpool

    Cross-posted

    Congressman Fred Upton is the grandson of the co-founder of Whirlpool.

    I find that interesting.

    Thomas Edison has been credited with bringing light to a world of darkness, but he also has been credited with coming up with the FIRST MODEL OF A COMPLETE CENTRAL POWER STATION.

    Power generation to the masses gave rise to many more inventions, like the electric clothes washer.

    So, basically if not for Edison, Whirlpool may never have been founded, because at the time, Edison was competing with other scientists in both America and Europe.
