  • 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

    One cannot possibly know where they're heading without looking at a map.

    What was once just malcontents on the outside is now an infestation inside government.

    Just in via The Detroit News

    Gov. Rick Snyder called a special election after the Livonia congressman abruptly resigned, saying it was constitutionally required.

    His administration now says it will cancel the $650,000 undertaking in suburban Detroit's 11th District if only one person -- or none -- decides to run.

    Candidates have until July 20 to qualify for the ballot by collecting 1,000 valid signatures.

    Republican Nancy Cassis of Novi said Friday on public television's "Off the Record" that she may withdraw to avoid a special election, if she's one of only two candidates. Kerry Bentivolio of Milford also plans to run on the GOP ticket.

    But .. but .. but, Constitution?  Sure thing, Ricky GovernDRIC.  And, all I needed to see: Nancy Classless is still .. Classless.  Yannow, the MI-GOP really is more fugged up than Hogan's Goat.  Keep up the good work, Baghdad Bobby Schostak.

    Go Bentivolio, Go!

    Thad McQuitter Piles On Taxpayers: Lt. Autism Insurance Mandate Calls For Sept. 5 Special Election

    via The Detroit News

    Lt. Gov. Brian Calley on Tuesday called for a special election to fill the seat of U.S. Rep. Thaddeus McCotter, who resigned suddenly on Friday.

    The special primary will be Sept. 5, with a special election to fill the remainder of McCotter's term held in conjunction with the Nov. 6 general election.
    ....

    A special election would come with new costs for the Wayne and Oakland County municipalities in the district.

    According to the governor's office, state election officials estimate it'll cost local government $650,000 for a special election.

    Oakland County estimates their costs alone would be in the six figures to print new ballots and for election supplies. Locals would be on the hook for paying for election inspectors, overtime, postage to mail out absentee  ballots and applications and paying for elections publication costs.

    Confounding the problem is the special election would apply to constituents in the current 11th District Congressional seat, though the voter databases and voter registrations have been adjusted to reflect the new redistricting boundaries in place for the upcoming Aug. 7 primary elections.

    Rest here

    Nice, eh?  Mass confusion created for an establishment player's write-in campaign.

    Ultimate Racebaiter: Dem Congressman (Who Supports Occupy Grp) Lies About Being 1/2 Black to Get Votes

    My favorite political story of the last week is that of Democrat U.S. Congressman Hansen Clarke of Detroit. He's running to be my Congressman and-needless to say-won't be getting my vote. He advocates the most wacky ideas and is an Occupy supporter and sympathizer. Far-left is a compliment for him. He's off the deep end. Throughout his political career as a state legislator and now as a Congressman, he's always maintained that he's half-Black. His father, a Bangladeshi Muslim alien, was obviously Asian. But there is now a lot of doubt regarding whether or not he's really half-Black. His mother's death certificate was dug up by one of Clarke's many opponents, and per years of rumors, it lists her as White.  

    Rest here

    Money quote?  "...and wouldn't wear a tie."  That says it all, Nerd voters.  So, is Detroit going to BLAST Hansen too?  I won't be holding my breath.

    Thad McWuss Quits Giving Nanny Classless Special Election Leverage By Gov Snydholm

    via The Detroit News

    In a statement released late Friday, McCotter said "after nearly 26 years in elected office, this past nightmarish month and a half have, for the first time, severed the necessary harmony between the needs of my constituency and of my family. As this harmony is required to serve, its absence requires I leave.

    "The recent event's totality of calumnies, indignities and deceits have weighed most heavily upon my family. Thus, acutely aware one cannot rebuild their hearth of home amongst the ruins of their U.S. House office, for the sake of my loved ones I must 'strike another match, go start anew' by embracing the promotion back from public servant to sovereign citizen."

    He added: "I do not leave for an existing job and face diminishing prospects (and am both unwilling and ill-suited to lobby), my priorities are twofold: find gainful employment to help provide for my family; and continue to assist, in any way they see fit, the Michigan Attorney General's earnest and thorough investigation, which I requested, into the 2012 petition filing."

    The Aug. 7 primary election for the 11th District had Kerry Bentivolio, a former teacher, veteran and Milford reindeer farmer, as the only Republican on the ballot. Former state Sen. Nancy Cassis, R-Novi, launched a write-in campaign with the blessing of the party establishment in Oakland and Wayne counties, which the 11th District encompasses. Neither was immediately available for comment.

    Under Michigan law, Gov. Rick Snyder will have to call a special election to fill McCotter's 11th District seat for the remainder of the year.

    It was unclear late Friday how soon a special election can be held with the August primary less than five weeks away.

    Thank God this toilet squatter wasn't around 236 years ago when the 56 signers were telling George III to go take a flying one, or we would still be ruled under England's king.

    Never trust a Fred Upton clan Moderate.  Never.  Ever.

    Saving Detoilet With One Altruistic Deadbeat After Another

    Yessiree, Michigan's very own chocolate Anderson Cooper is going to stick everyone with his poor financial choices.

    City Council President Charles Pugh is facing foreclosure and says he likely will abandon his $385,000 Brush Park condominium.

    His personal financial struggles come as he and council colleagues fight to bail Detroit out of its own fiscal crisis.

    On Friday, Pugh said he can't afford to pay his mortgage after taking a pay cut and leaving a high-paying TV career to run for the City Council.

    "Making my mortgage payments has been a struggle for me," Pugh wrote in an email. "I fought hard to stay in my condo because I had an attachment to it, but I can no longer afford to do so."

    The mortgage issue is the latest financial problem facing Pugh, 40, a former Fox 2 television anchor and radio show host who was the top vote-getter in the 2009 election. He is paid $76,500 as council president.

    "I am devoted to this city and helping us to move forward despite wage cuts and personal sacrifices such as foreclosing on my own home," Pugh said. "These are the tough choices Detroiters make every day, and I am no different."

    Pugh is still living in the condo and would like to keep it, but he needs a "substantial decrease" in the mortgage, spokeswoman Kirsten Ussery said.

    Um, no dummy.  Charles, you greedily chose to place yourself into a position that you knew you could not afford.  Then again, finances never have been a priority for Charles, have they?
