    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.

    via The Detroit News

    Mayor Dave Bing and Gov. Rick Snyder met today in Bing's office with LaHood; businessman Roger Penske, chairman of the M-1 project; and several members of the Michigan's congressional delegation to discuss the issues.
    ....
    Penske said he was "very excited" about LaHood's comments that he is in favor of the project. "We have to be sure we have all the technical information available to us," he said. "There's a concern, potentially, about who's going to run this."

    Penske said it was clear the federal government wants a regional transportation authority [think bridge] to help with the project.

    Investors with the M-1 group submitted their plans to federal officials in April. Group officials said they had raised most of the $137 million needed to build the line and pledged to pay 80 percent of the annual cost of operating it through 2025.

    The rail line would extend 3.3 miles from downtown, north to the New Center Area.

    Can y'all get over the size of the stones on those like Roger in the Billionaire Club walking around with their hand out for taxpayer money?

    All of them in Detroit.  Penske, Gilbert, Ilitch, and the Ford's.  They all talk Free Market, but sure as hell don't mind Socialism when it comes to feeding their Crony Capitalism and Corporate Welfare wallets.

    via Inside Indiana Business

    Molded Foam, LLC, a manufacturer of foam seating and cushioning materials, announced today that it will acquire a Holland, Mich. firm and relocate its operations to Indiana, creating up to 45 new jobs by 2014.

    The company, which provides polyurethane foam cushioning to customers in the defense, medical, office-furniture and transportation industries, among others, plans to invest more than $3.8 million to purchase and equip additional space to house the new operations which will include a new molded production line.

    "We take this relocation project as an encouraging sign that we're taking the right steps to make Indiana the most attractive place to run a business," said Mitch Roob, Secretary of Commerce and chief executive officer of the Indiana Economic Development Corporation. "Job growth is great news for any community, but it's especially gratifying when new investment happens in a smaller community like Bristol."

    Molded Foam, LLC, plans to begin hiring additional manufacturing and supervisory associates early this summer as the new production line becomes operational.  

    Rest here

    Gov Snydholm, you can dodge and weave RTW all you want, but you're losing your obstinate, veto threatening ground with every Indiana relocation.

    Yes, I'm a person of my word.

    A Message To Our Legislators - Beware False Choices

    Awrey Bakeries: Left-To-Work .. in Indiana?

    via The Detroit News

    One of Metro Detroit's most iconic bakeries could soon be history after production workers on Wednesday voted down a contract proposal for the second time this week.

    About 150 union workers at the 102-year-old Awrey Bakeries Inc. here rejected a take-it-or-leave-it offer by a 73-63 vote, said Brian Corrigan, steward for the United Distributive Workers Union, Council 30.

    Workers were told not to show up for work today. But it is not clear if the rejected proposal spells the end for Livonia-based Awrey, which is known for its cakes, cheesecakes, fruit squares and gourmet specialty desserts.

    ....

    The company has not said publicly whether the Awrey name would die or if production would move to a 58,000-square-foot Atkins Elegant Desserts facility in Noblesville, Ind., that Awrey acquired in 2009 in hopes of expanding the brand's presence nationally.

    Indiana became a right-to-work state earlier this year, allowing workers to avoid paying union dues but still receive the benefits of union-negotiated contracts.

    Rest here

    Typical goonion labor mentality.  They'd rather have 100% of nothing instead of 95% of something, all the while blaming job creators for their costly, inflexible goonionized stupidity.

    Well, that's what the "BIG TAX BREAK" equates to for a $50,000/year income.

    Michiganians can expect individual tax relief this year as part of an agreement on the state budget hammered out late Wednesday that also includes more money for education, roads and film tax credits.

    The state will use $90 million in one-time money to reduce personal income taxes by one-tenth of a percent through either a reduction in the rate, a personal exemption or a combination of both, according to Gov. Rick Snyder's office. He and Republican legislative leaders have still to work out the details.

    ....

    Another $180 million will be added to the schools budget, including $106 million to pre-fund the school employees retirement system with the remainder going to K-12 classrooms.

    Snyder emerged from a late Wednesday afternoon budget huddle with House Speaker Jase Bolger and Senate Majority Leader Randy Richardville saying, "It's making soup; it's good stuff."

    Read about the rest of this crap here.

    Yup.  More film subsidy for wealthy Hollywood Lefty's, more subsidy for heating bill moochers, and Teachers Goonion payola.

    Now, Big Government Rick proposes an end run around Michigan taxpayers and our legislature with an "interlocal agreement" between himself and Canadian officials.

    The Republican governor told reporters Wednesday he still hopes the GOP-led House and Senate will approve moving forward on a new bridge between Detroit and Windsor, Ontario. But he's also pursuing other options.

    Message to Gov Snydholm... It's the numbers, stupid.

    The numbers don't lie, nor can you hide from them, Gov Snydholm.

    The group planned to develop more than 400 housing units that would be sold to Chinese buyers, creating a concentration of Chinese immigrants on what is now mainly farmland.

    According to warranty deeds filed with Monroe County, Sino Michigan Properties paid $1.9 million for the land.

    A Chinese Group Plans To Construct A 200 Acre "China City" In Michigan

    A Chinese group known as "Sino-Michigan Properties LLC" has bought up 200 acres of land near the town of Milan, Michigan.  Their plan is to construct a "China City" with artificial lakes, a Chinese cultural center and hundreds of housing units for Chinese citizens.  Essentially, it would be a little slice of communist China dropped right into the heartland of America.

    Isn't Michigan Liberalism just grand... if it isn't Sharia loving Musloids, it's Commie Chin infestation.

    via The Detroit News

    Gov. Rick Snyder is urging the U.S. Senate to pass legislation that would allow Michigan to extend its 6 percent sales taxes to purchases from out-of-state Internet retailers.

    Snyder sent a letter to senators this week endorsing the Marketplace Fairness Act, which would enable states to collect sales taxes from online retailers like Amazon and Overstock.com.

    "By enabling remote sellers to ignore the collection of sales and use taxes, it provides them an unfair competitive advantage and threatens the viability of retailers throughout our communities, many of which are locally owned small businesses that reflect the unique character and culture of the Great Lakes State," Snyder wrote in a letter sent Monday -- and obtained Friday by The Detroit News -- to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky.

    Rest here

    No, a-hole.  You lower the taxes on the brick and mortar retailers, and get government bureaucrat fiefdoms the hell out of all this cradle-to-grave mentality nonsense altogether.
