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

ScoopHost.com is currently running Scoop version scoop-1_1-dev from 2006/08/26 20:02:04 .

Michigan Business Done Right - Malpractice

Manufacturers can carry a great deal of liability, particularly depending on the nature of what it is that they produce. Liability being of course the causation of actions against a company or entity that produces a product that is defective and fails, causing damage or injury. It is the ultimate responsibility that drives quality control, and best management practices in business.

Responsibility is something that makers of any product sold here or worldwide will understand. It can be their windfall.. or their end.

Imagine if the management of General Motors was to put only one lug nut on each tire of each car they made. Certainly such a process could save a few dollars on each car. Further, what if the seat belts were held in place with a plastic clip instead of a metal one? Add to this a windshield of regular pane glass, and the first pothole met at 60MHP, results in the driver racing through the air looking like a thanksgiving turkey fresh from the processor before the stretch wrap.

A vivid picture drawn to capture the imagination. Do we have your attention yet?
