# Cnemaspis scalpensis

Cnemaspis scalpensis, commonly called Ferguson's day gecko or the rocky day gecko, is a species of diurnal gecko in the family Gekkonidae. The species is found only in Sri Lanka.

## Geographic range and habitat

C. scalpensis is found in the Kandy valley in Sri Lanka, and more common in the dry zone, than the wet zone. Its preferred natural habitat is forest, but it has also been found in gardens with large trees. Localities include Gannoruwa, Gammaduwa, Palmadulla, Ritigala, and Kandy.

## Description

The snout of C. scalpensis is short. The dorsal scales are smooth granules. The median subcaudals are enlarged. The ventrals are smooth. Preanal pores are absent, but femoral pores are present. The dorsum is brown or bluish-gray, with dense brown reticulations. The forehead and lips have light spots. The throat is dusted with brown, with 5-6 irregular cross bars of light spots. The rest of the venter is bright yellow.

## Ecology

C. scalpensis is a diurnal and crepuscular species, often found in pairs, predominately on trunks of large trees and rarely on rocks.

## Reproduction

C. scalpensis is oviparous. 1-2 eggs with dimensions of 5 mm (0.20 in) are deposited, and hatchlings measure 13 mm (0.51 in).

# Coastguard's Lookout Tower

Coastguard’s Lookout Tower, now known as Telegraph Tower, is a Grade II listed structure built around 1814-16 on St Mary's, Isles of Scilly as a Signal station for the Admiralty.

## History

In May 1812 the military governor of the Isles of Scilly, Lieutenant General Vigoureux, requested a new signal tower station on Newford Down, St Mary’s to allow signals to be passed from the mainland in Cornwall to the batteries below Star Castle. The Admiralty agreed and adverts for its construction were placed in October 1813.
After a series of delays, the tower was erected by Messrs. Hambledon. The date of construction is quoted as 1814, but it was reported in the Hampshire Chronicle on 8 January 1816 that had been erected on Newford Down, Scilly, and Lieutenant John Trinder RN was appointed to superintend it.
However, the tower appears to have been unsuccessful and in December 1816, it was closed down by the Admiralty and the building reverted to the custody of the land owner, George Osborne, 6th Duke of Leeds.
In 1831 the site was taken over by HM Coastguard as a subsidiary to the main station situated on the Garrison.
In 1903 a wireless mast and receiving office were built nearby, The Newford Down semaphore station became known as Telegraph Tower, and the area around it is now known as Telegraph. The Lloyd’s Mercantile Marine Signal Station in the garrison was closed and the work of signalling passing ships was carried out by the coastguards at Telegraph Tower.
In 1908 a telegraph house was erected on the tower's roof by the contractor, Arthur Carkeep.
Today, most of the tower is a residential property owned by the Duchy of Cornwall.

# Coast 34

The Coast 34 is a Canadian sailboat that was designed by Bruce Roberts and Grahame Shannon as a cruiser and first built in 1980.
The Coast 34 is a development of an earlier Roberts design for amateur construction.
The design was also sold as the Passage 34, Roberts 34, and the Westcoast 34.

## Production

The design was possibly first built by Clearwater Marine and was later constructed by Cape Marine and Windward Marine in Canada, but it is now out of production.

## Design

The Coast 34 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fibreglass, with a foam core used in the hull above the waterline. It also has wooden trim. The design has a masthead sloop rig, or optional cutter rig, with aluminum spars, a spooned raked stem, a rounded bulbous transom, a skeg-mounted rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 15,750 lb (7,144 kg) and carries 6,400 lb (2,903 kg) of ballast.
The design was available in a conventional cockpit version or with a pilothouse.
The boat has a draft of 5.50 ft (1.68 m) with the standard keel fitted and a draft of 5.00 ft (1.52 m) with the optional shoal draft keel.
The boat was factory-fitted with a Japanese Yanmar 3GM diesel engine of 27 hp (20 kW) for docking and maneuvering, with a Volvo engine optional. The fuel tank holds 56 U.S. gallons (210 L; 47 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 110 U.S. gallons (420 L; 92 imp gal).
The sleeping accommodation includes a bow port side double berth and an aft, starboard side double berth under the cockpit. The saloon provides additional sleeping space and has three seats to starboard and a U-shaped dinette to port. The galley is on the port side at the foot of the companionway steps and includes a three burner gimbal-mounted propane-fuelled stove. The head is forward on the port side, just aft of the bow cabin and includes a shower with a grated drain. There are provisions for wood or diesel cabin heating. A navigation table is provided.
Ventilation includes three opening hatches above the bow berth, head and the passageway. The main saloon has ten opening ports and four Dorade vents.
The bow has a self-draining anchor-locker and dual anchor rollers. The cabin roof has self-tailing winches for the internally-mounted halyards. Genoa and staysail sheet tracks are provided and the mainsail has a cockpit-mounted mainsheet traveller.

# Coentunnel

The Coentunnel (1966) is a tunnel in the A10 motorway under the North Sea Canal in western Amsterdam. The tunnel is named for the 17th-century colonizer Jan Pieterszoon Coen. The tunnel itself is 1283 metres long of which 587 metres are fully covered. The tunnel connects the Zaan district with the western part of Amsterdam. The tunnel reaches a maximum depth of 22 metres.
Before the tunnel was built, the Hem ferry and, to a lesser degree, the Schellingwouder bridge were the most important connections between Amsterdam and Zaandam, and this was a serious bottleneck for traffic. In 1959 5,800 vehicles were ferried daily and waiting times reached 45 minutes or more. In the 1950s inhabitants petitioned successfully for a tunnel under the North Sea Canal.
Construction commenced in 1961 and the total cost amounted to 45 million Dutch guilders. The opening of the tunnel was inaugurated on 21 June 1966 by Queen Juliana.
In 2007, more than 100,000 vehicles passed through the tunnel daily, again ensuring traffic congestion. The Second Coen Tunnel has been procured under a public-private partnership structure, and construction started in the summer of 2009. On 13 May 2013, the new tubes opened for traffic and the old tubes were closed for extensive renovation. It is expected that all four tubes will be available for traffic by mid-2014.

# Valins effect

The Valins Effect is a conscious sense of physiological changes when an emotional response is actualized.
Psychologist Stuart Valins conducted an experiment in 1966 on the perception of one's own degree of activation. Valins thus modified the two-factor theory of emotion of Schachter and Singer. According to the Valins theory, the actual physiological arousal or the sensation of arousal is not necessary for the emergence of emotions, but the cognitive representation about one's own arousal is sufficient for the emergence of emotions.

## Experiment

In the experiment, Valins showed ten pictures of attractive, half-naked women (then Playboy photos) in two passes to male subjects. The participants in the experimental group were connected before the start of the experiment to an apparatus which allegedly recorded their heartbeat. At the same time, the subjects received the feigned feedback of their heartbeat rate via headphones. However, the distorted heart rhythm recorded via headphones was not his own. The experimenter previously determined which photos showed a slowing or increasing heartbeat. The perception of a reduced or increasing state of excitation should thus be simulated.
In the control group, the subjects also heard the same sounds when viewing the photos through headphones. However, they were presented by the experimenter as meaningless or disturbing background noise. At the end of the experiment, the subjects should evaluate the individual photos in a questionnaire according to attractiveness (scale). In addition, the participants could again select some photos that they took home. The subsequent evaluation showed that there was a coupling between the change in heart rate and the attractiveness ratings. The perceived excitement of the subjects made an influence on the assessment.

## Criticism

The Valins effect has since been checked several times. The studies in different areas came to the same results. But there was also criticism, because the Valins effect also appeared under other conditions. Further points of criticism were that the subjects may have reacted to the so - called "demand characteristics" and that there may have been differences in attention in the experimental or control group. Some critics objected to the emotion index. From their point of view, the attractiveness rating scale and image choices were questionable emotion indicators.
