	Society for Creative Anachronism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Society for Creative Anachronism (or SCA for short) is a not-for-profit educational organization devoted to studying and re-creating the Middle Ages and Renaissance.
		SCA events are not typically spectator-oriented so attendees are expected to follow SCA norms including an attempt to dress in pre-17th century garb.
		The SCA continued to be a local organization until 1968, when a tournament was held at the World Science Fiction Convention, which was held in Berkeley that year.

	Encyclopedia: SCA virus
		The SCA virus was a boot sector virus.
		"SCA" is an acronym for the Swiss Cracking Association, a group engaged in software protection removal, so the geographic origin of the virus was Switzerland.
		SCA also checksums as an original filesystem (OFS) bootblock so would destroy newer filesystems if the user didn't know the proper use of the "install" command to remove SCA ("install df0: FFS FORCE" to recover a 'fast filesystem' floppy).

	Life in the Current Middle Ages
		The SCA is the Society for Creative Anachronism, which is a group dedicated to researching and recreating the Middle Ages in the present.
		The avowed purpose of the SCA is the study and recreation of the European Middle Ages, its crafts, sciences, arts, traditions, literature, etc. The SCA "period" is defined to be Western civilization before 1600 AD, concentrating on the Western European High Middle Ages.
		Some SCA members try to create a "persona" which could have lived in some time and place within the scope of the SCA, and fit their garb and activities to that persona; some people try to live at events as if they were their personae.

	KCT Glossary: "S"
		SCA units tend to use spears as heavy cavalry, their aggressive pikemen attacking the shield wall.
		In the SCA system, combatants are responsible for their calling their own ‘blows’, a technique that attempts to place the responsibility for their field conduct squarely on the combatant themselves instead of a panel of judges.
		Knights in the SCA are made by the king in recognition of their prowess, courtesy, and noble demeanor; knights often take ‘squires’, less expert combatants who wish to learn the chivalric arts.

	Society for Creative Anachronism
		The Society for Creative Anachronism (or SCA for short) is a hobby organization devoted to studying and re-creating the Middle Ages and Renaissance, primarily in Western Europe but also other regions such as the Middle East and Japan.
		It could be considered a historical reenactment or living history organization, but, unlike most such organizations, the SCA does not concentrate on a narrowly-defined time period, let alone a specific war or other event.
		This use of "peerage" is unique to SCA and should not be misconstrued to have any resemblance, whatsoever to historical "peerage" as once practiced in the United Kingdom or similar countries, though they are inspired by medieval concepts.

	Medtronic, Inc. - Sudden Cardiac Arrest: What is SCA?
		SCA, an electrical conduction problem, is not the same as a heart attack (myocardial infarction [MI]), which is caused by a blocked vessel leading to loss of blood supply to a portion of the heart muscle.
		SCA and subsequent death (sudden cardiac death, SCD) is a major health problem, claiming over 450,000 lives every year in the U.S. Most SCA victims are on average 60 years of age, and many victims are relatively healthy and lead active lives right up to the moment when SCA strikes.
		SCA is responsible for approximately 60% of deaths in New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II or III CHF patients.
