 Coats Land - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coats Land is a region in Antarctica which lies westward of Queen Maud Land and forms the eastern shore of the Weddell Sea, extending in a general northeast-southwest direction between 20º00´W and 36º00´W. The northeast part was discovered from the Scotia by William S. Bruce, leader of the Scottish National Antarctic Expedition, 1902-04.
He gave the name Coats Land for James Coats, Jr., and Major Andrew Coats, the two chief supporters of the expedition.
Caird Coast is that portion of the coast of Coats Land lying between the terminus of Stancomb-Wills Glacier, in 20º00´W, and the vicinity of the Hayes Glacier, in 27º54´W. Shackleton named it for Sir James Key Caird, patron of the expedition.

 Possession of the Promised Land
Coats admits that all the land Yahweh promised to give to "the fathers (Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob)" was not in fact given to the Israelites at this time.
Coats attributed this failure to conditions that the Israelites did not meet, but even if he is right on this, it in no way explains why the Bible plainly said that all the land promised had been possessed but then immediately turned around and said that all the land had NOT been possessed.
Whoever wrote this clearly thought that Yahweh intended for the Israelites to possess the land of the Philistines, but in point of fact the Israelites never did possess this land, not even during the reigns of David and Solomon when the borders of the Israelite kingdom were pushed to their farthest extremes.

 Coats Land, 1902-04
Coats Land, a 240km (150-mile) stretch of the coast of the Antarctic continent discovered by the 1902-1904 Scottish National Antarctic Expedition, was named after the Paisley thread-manufacturing family to which the main financial backers of the expedition belonged.
Major Andrew Coats and his younger brother James Coats junior between them provided over £30,000 of the £36,405 raised to finance the venture.
Many of the topographical features explored on the expedition were named in honour of members of its personnel, or individuals otherwise associated with it, and several of these names (including Coats Land) have survived to the present day as the official names of their respective features.

 On Land Value Taxation | Liberal Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Underpinning Land Value Tax are some impeccably liberal principles, of land and property, which are just as important today as they ever were over three centuries ago when John Locke and others first expounded them.
The second principle then is that we only have one planet and that everyone born on it has a natural birthright to an equitable share of its natural resources; resources that are simply there, not created by human effort or ingenuity but whose stewardship is inherited by every person.
All land has a value depending on what goes on around it, not what is built on it.

Bruce was anxious to find a land base before winter set in and the ship became ice-bound, yet already pack-ice blocked the way.
Yet as the Scotia sailed off to chart 150 miles of Antarctic mainland, named Coats Land in honour of the expedition sponsor, the little party left on Laurie Island was nearly wiped out by a hurricane-force gale and tidal wave that half-demolished Omond House.
Perhaps the greatest feat of the whole venture was the way the two Scots and three Argentinians hung on and repaired their shattered home, handing over a going concern to the new meteorological team when relieved by the Argentinian gunboat Uruguay.

 Lars Christensen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He was among the first to use aerial surveying with seaplanes to map the coast of East Antarctica, which he completed from the Weddell Sea to the Shackleton Ice Shelf, concentrating on Bouvetøya and the region from Enderby Land to Coats Land.
On December 1, 1927, as leader of one of his financed expeditions, Christensen landed on and claimed Bouvetøya for Norway; it had previously been claimed by Great Britain, but the British soon abandoned their claim and recognised the island as Norwegian.
In the expeditions he financed between 1927 and 1937, Christensen's men discovered and surveyed substantial new land on the Dronning Maud Land and MacRobertson Land coasts.
