Use acts_as_view (Google for it) - by maiha, author of scoping in the first place.

Actually, let me illustrate with a section of my own code:

(instance method of a Group model)   def members     User.with_scope :find => {:conditions => "#{User.table_name}.id != #{self.leader.id}"} do       users.find_all     end   end
