  • 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.

    MIGOP Outreach Vice-Chair candidate Akindele Akinyemi has officially dropped his bid for the position.  Akinyemi sent out an email Sunday evening announcing his decision.  

    In his email, that was at times critical of the MIGOP, Akinyemi stated;

    I am deeply concerned about the direction of our party. The more I began to evaluate our party and the people in it the less I became convinced that we could change.

    His announcement comes after conducting a "listening tour" of the state that lasted several months and took him to cities such as Benton Harbor, Pontiac, Detroit, Muskegon and Grand Rapids.  The tour was done to support his outreach program and was meant to lead up to the MIGOP state convention to be held later this month.

    You can read the entire text of his announcement at www.akindeleforoutreach.com.

    MIGOP outreach vice-chair candidate Akindele Akinyemi continued a statewide listening tour this week with a visit to the western Michigan town of Muskegon. Previous stops have included Pontiac, Benton Harbor and his home town of Detroit.  Akinyemi spoke with former Muskegon County Clerk Karen Buie and toured several area schools.  

    Akinyemi, an educator himself, took a tour of Muskegon Heights High School with the current principal and spoke with students. Writing of his experience with the students he states, "I told them the reason why I am here is to help them because the GOP has to begin to break those stereotypes from the minds of the urban community."

    You can read about this latest stop of his tour on his blog here.
