Despite its name referencing the 1960s, the Sixties Scoop began in the mid-to-late 1950s and persisted into the 1980s.Walker, Connie. 2018 March 20.Saskatchewan's Adopt Indian Métis program" ''Finding Cleo''.

Scoops (magazine)
''Scoops'' was a weekly British science fiction magazine published by C. Arthur Pearson Ltd, Pearson's in Tabloid (newspaper format), tabloid format in 1934, edited by Haydn Dimmock. ''Scoops'' was launched as a boy's paper, and it was not until several issues had appeared that Dimmock discovered there was an adult audience for science fiction. Circulation was poor, and Dimmock attempted to change the magazine's focus to more mature material. He reprinted Arthur Conan Doyle's ''The Poison Belt'', improved the cover art, and obtained fiction from British science fiction writers such as John Russell Fearn and Maurice Hugi, but to no avail. Pearson's cancelled the magazine because of poor sales; the twentieth issue, dated 23 June 1934, was the last. The failure of the magazine contributed to the belief that Britain could not support a science fiction magazine, and it was not until 1937, with ''Tales of Wonder (magazine), Tales of Wonder'', that another attempt was made.

Scoop (utensil)
In common usage, a scoop is any specialized spoon used to serve food. In the technical terms used by the food service industry and in the retail and wholesale food utensil industries, there is a clear distinction between three types of scoop: the disher, which is used to measure a portion e.g. cookie dough, to make melon balls, and often to serve ice cream (although manufacturers frequently advise against using dishers for ice cream and other frozen foods); ice cream scoops, and the scoop which is used to measure or to transfer an unspecified amount of a bulk dry foodstuff such as rice, flour, or sugar. Disher Dishers are usually hemispherical like an ice cream scoop, while measuring scoops are usually cylindrical, and transfer scoops are usually shovel-shaped. Some dishers have mechanical levers which help expel the disher's contents. Traditionally dishers are sized by the number of scoops per quart but may also be sized by ounces, the diameter of the bowl, or the number of ...

Scoop (dance Project)
Scoop was a Belgian dance group. Originally it was a solo project by producer Daniel Maze. After the first release "Wings of Love" in 1998, Fiocco producer Jan Vervloet joined Scoop. The production was signed in Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, UK, Norway, Finland and Spain. "Wings of Love" contains a sample of John Foxx's 1980 first solo single "Underpass" and was remixed by Tiësto in 1999. The second single was the theme song for the '99 Love Parade in Berlin. "Drop It" became a No. 1 hit in the club charts in Belgium and the Netherlands, and also topped the mainstream charts in both countries. To promote the release, a video clip was created with images from the '98 Love Parade mixed with the Scoop logo. Just like the previous release, the third song "Rock the House" (2000) was based on the same concept: a simple catchy tune and a powerful quote. For "Drop It", that was "we're gonna do a song that you've never heard before..", a sample from Otis Redding's " Good to Me". "Ro ...
