	Scott Base - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Scott Base is a base located at 77°51′S 166°45′E in Antarctica, operated by New Zealand.
		Scott Base was constructed as part of the New Zealand Government’s contribution to the International Geophysical Year (IGY) project of 1957.
		Although the base was only intended to last several years, New Zealand has continued to operate Scott Base for scientific research, much of which depends upon the continuity of recorded data over a period of years.

	JockBio: Scott Rolen Biography
		Scott was batting.254 with four homers in 37 games when a pitch from Chicago’s Steve Trachsel broke his arm in early September and sidelined him for the rest of the year.
		Scott was given the third base job by new manager Terry Francona in the spring of 1997, and he rewarded the young skipper by ranking second on the Phils in RBIs during the exhibition schedule.
		Scott’s back kept him out of a handful of games in 2001, as did a sore ankle later in the year, but his numbers were terrific nonetheless: 65 extra-base hits, 107 RBIs, 16 steals and a.289 average.

	UNo MAS: Raymond Scott (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Scott was as much an electronics inventor as a musician, creating many of his own instruments and working with new technology throughout his career.
		This was the Scott who told interviewers he liked to park his car in his living room because 'A Buick makes a fine piece of furniture.' He had the band mime playing their instruments through 'Silent Music,' much to audience's dismay.
		Scott continued composing with and adapting new technology (including the never quite finished Electronium) until 1987, when he suffered the first of a series of debilitating strokes that took him from the music and work he loves.

	Emperor penguins at Scott Base: the coming of antarctic winter
		One moment the base was noisy and bursting at the seams with people and projects around the clock in the perpetual daylight of the Antarctic summer; the next it was empty and echoing as the winter-over team of 12 were left to take up their winter routines.
		The sea ice immediately in front of the base had appeared to be an extension of the land: dangerous with tidal crack and the occasional saltwater-melt pool, but relatively solid and distinctly unlike water.
		A human visitor cautiously approaching a group on bended knees would be greeted with warbles of welcome to this strange new penguin, and the incongruity of their elegant dress and their waddling gait and curious antics never failed to enchant and amuse.

	TEA: Trummel- -- 11.1.1998
		The dirt road to the Kiwi base is a winding, hilly one.
		Pram Point was named during Robert Scott's "Discovery" expedition because to get there from the Ross Ice Shelf in summer the men used a small boat, known as a "pram." So many names of places nearby were given those names by early explorers of the continent.
		This was the first day that their store was open, and judging by the crowds of people who walked or took the shuttle over to the Kiwi base today...what they have in their store won't last long.
