The main differences between the females of these two species are the relative length of the flagellomere I and the shape of the black spots on the sternum II. An examination of more specimens is needed to confirm the previous synonymies of <i>Chrysis tamerlana</i> and the validity of <i>Ch. vishnu</i>, which could be also a synonymous of <i>Ch. tamerlana</i>.</p>Published as part of <i>Rosa, Paolo, Aswathi, Pokkattu Gopi & Bijoy, Chenthamarakshan, 2021, An annotated and illustrated checklist of the Indian cuckoo wasps (Hymenoptera: Chrysididae), pp. 1-100 in Zootaxa 4929 (1)</i> on page 68, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4929.1.1, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/4544556">http://zenodo.org/record/4544556</a>
Conjeeveram: Vishnu image
No full textAlthough it is not possible for the non-Hindu to see or to photograph the image in the central shrine at the Varadarajaswamy temple, this is described as a true representation of the figure in the inner shrine. This image of Vishnu is carved on one side of a pillar in the hall of pillars, and is usually visited by the pilgrims who decorate the carving with colored powders, making the sign of the devotees of Vishnu, and putting oil and holy water on the image
THE INFLUENCE OF SPECIAL ITEMS TO CORE EARNINGS IN EARNINGS MANAGEMENT AT MANUFACTURING COMPANIES LISTED IN JAKARTA STOCK EXCHANGE
No full textThis paper examines the classification of items within the income statement
as an earnings management tool. Evidence is consistent with managers
opportunistically shifting expenses from core expenses (cost of goods sold and
selling, general, and administrative expenses) to special items. This vertical
movement of expenses does not change bottom-line earnings, but overstates ‘‘core’’
earnings.
Keywords: earnings management; earnings components; special items
[Vishnu Schist Canyon Wall]
No full textPhotograph of a Vishnu schist canyon wall. The photograph is shadowy which obscures some details. Layers of dark rock protrude vertically beside a green river. Pieces of tan, square rock offshoot from the black rock. A horizontally layered landform sits in the background to the right, standing tall and contrasting against the blue sky and a large white cloud above it
Vishnu reclining on Sesha, c. 1775, Kangra, (The Archer Collection)
No full textLakshmi is tenderly massaging his feet. Like Rama and Krishna, Vishnu is shown with a blue or dark mauve skin. He also wears the peacock-feathered crown associated with Krishna (though not with Rama). Vishnu's special connection with Vishnu is thus implied. Although the extreme elongation of Vishnu's form might at first sight suggest a Guler provenance, the decorated spandrels in the four corners are wholly typical of Kangra painting. The brightness of colouring, seen in the figures of Vishnu and Lakshmi, is also a Kangra characteristic easily recognizable. -- 11 x 8 inches
Conjeeveram. Vishnu Temple. Gopuram
No full textThe gopuram or four-sided gateway forming the roof of the temple in the southern architectural style, symbolizes, as does its northern counterpart, the sikhara, the celestial sphere of the god whose earthly residence is the sacred temple site. A rich proliferation of ornamental friezes composes te gopuras, these containing innumerable divine figures emanating in every direction on the roof line and representing the strength of the central image in the innermost shrine or cella. All the energy imbued in the roof figures is but a manifestation of the main god's implied powers and therefore symbolically as well as structurally active in the temple's architectural systems as a whole. Vishnu temples, as opposed to Siva temples, always harbor an anthropomorphic image of the god. If Vishnu is represented as the Narasimha (lion-man), the temple would be erected as to have its back toward the nearest village, for the fierce power of the god should not be directed toward mankind. If, on the other hand, the god is represented with his consort Laksmi, their common temple should face the village, for this is Vishnu's benevolent manifestation. The former kind of Vishnu shrine is built primarily to ward off evil demons while the second type is built to radiate goodness into the village proper
