RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - State and local government agencies in Virginia are getting $17 million in homeland security grants from the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
Rep. Gerry Connolly says the grants include $3 million for the Virginia Port Authority and Hampton Roads police departments for port security.
The various grants are aimed at helping to plan for acts of terrorism and other catastrophic events, and enhancing security programs in high-threat, high-density urban areas.
The funding also will help plan emergency preparedness and provide disaster relief and emergency assistance in the wake of disasters of all types.

Spirit Award Winners
The first national live television broadcast in the US took place in 1951 but sixty-three years later, certain awards shows are unaware that this technology has been invented yet. The Spirit Awards will be broadcast on IFC tonight at 10PM EST the tent in Santa Monica will be cleared and we'll know all the winners and we'll have probably have lost interest completely, this being Oscar weekend when time is precious and tight.
That's Greta Gerwig left on the red carpet (that's where the stream froze so that's the expression you get!) where she said...
The Spirit Awards are my jam."
The best moment on the red carpet was definitely birthday girl Lupita Nyong'o evading questions about what she's doing on Monday once the Oscars are over.
I'm getting away from here."
She wouldn't say why, what for, or where. Smart girl.

Golf.com Live From Pinehurst! Can Anyone Catch Martin Kaymer at the U.S. Open?
Martin Kaymer shot another 65 on Friday at the U.S. Open and has a huge lead over the field. Jessica Marksbury, Shane O'Donoghue and Jeff Ritter talk about Kaymer's impressive two rounds and whether Phil Mickelson or Rory McIlroy can catch him.

Fits my P99 like a glove. Hides well under almost any untucked shirt and in the driving position it holds the pistol exactly where it should be.

An acclaimed photographer introduces the incredible variety of stylish cyclists pedaling through city streets in this stunningly illustrated book. No city boasts of a more fashion-forward population of bicyclists than London. Photographer Horst Friedrichs meets his subjects in their own milieu: zooming around the city's streets on two wheels. There he encounters a dazzling array of style and a surprising amount of substance. In tweeds (both Harris and hipster) and Saville Row suits, in hightops and stilettos, in flowing skirts and the skinniest jeans, wildly tattooed and impeccably manicured, sporting bowler hats and racing caps, London's cyclists are jubilantly exercising their fashion freedom. Whether they're leisurely filling their baskets from market to home or pedaling purposefully to an important meeting, experiencing the city as cycling tourists, or getting from place to place in the most economical way possible, Friedrichs' subjects share a love of the bicycle culture that is sweeping the streets of London and the rest of the world.

Comment on Girls Und Panzer Event Anything But Tanks by Anonymous:
Don't worry, those people will all be dead soon from old age. Accept for 2channers, but they never bother leaving their basements anyway.

- Girls Und Panzer Event Anything But Tanks:
The Type 90 and Type 10 have stabilized fire control that are on par with Western tanks. In the 90′s, the Type 90′s armor had been rated as superior to the Leopard 2A5. True, they haven't kept up with composite armor development like the U.S. and NATO has, but frankly…..look at who their potential adversaries are: China, N.Korea and whatever Middle Eastern army they may one day face on a peacekeeping mission. The Type 90 and Type 10 may be slightly outclassed by the Abrams, Leo2 and Chally2 …
- Girls Und Panzer Event Anything But Tanks:
Japan had medium and heavy tanks on the drawing board but it was pointless to manufacture since their theater of war was in the pacific, which was primarily an amphibious/infantry war…along with huge naval/air battles. There was very little of the open ground that could be found in Europe. If the Japanese had not lost the battle of Midway and had held off the U.S. then we would've seen those heavier tanks in action as they attempted to link up with Germany in the USSR.

- Girls Und Panzer Event Anything But Tanks:
Are those tuna chunks people are just eating straight off the fish?
- Girls Und Panzer Event Anything But Tanks:
Right. But the Tank Commander Anon's point was that Japan sucked in tanks in WW2 and still sucks now. In 1930s Russia had 152mm canon/115 mm thick armor KV-2. No German tank could destroy it except at point blank range. Japan by contrast had little toys and Japanese infantry got an ass kicking from Red Army, the same Red Army the Germans took out in 1941. Imagine German Wehrmacht taking on Imperial Japanese army – they would decimate it.

I prefer you as a potentiality,
the tease and hunt rather
than the taste of blood
from first bite.
It's always so disappointing.
I'd rather salivate from afar,
the honey dripping from my mouth
and drawing you closer, ever closer
to my slaughterhouse.
Even with all my camouflage and mimicry,
I'm still a predator, and I must feast.
The voyeurs in their safari trucks will report:
Now look there, mates!
That wild beast must be absolutely starving!
They rarely roam this far from their homes.
And, awh hell, he must be damn desperate, too.
Animals of his caliber only ever eat that prey
after all other options have been chased away.
See how he cowers when we notice him;
his pride must be suffering terribly this season.
In lion prides, it is only the female who hunts.
She stalks better, knows best when to strike
and when to otherwise tarry,
patient for the perfect opportunity,
unsacrificing in her practiced, savage ritual.
The males are too large and too loud,
their manes alerting all to their presence.
Each lioness may run to him for protection
from time to time, but they could survive
fine without him, if they had to.
Should they grow thin and desperate enough,
they would likely, easily turn on him, outnumbering
and devouring his boastful, excessive body.
But they like to keep him around
as an alternate source of protein,
something fresh to preserve their strength
when the wild hunt proves to tiresome.
He does not know how close to death
he lives his life. His harem keeps him
distracted, just the way they like –
with tear of tooth and bloodied fur
far from his sated, foolish mind.

The cast is certainly talented enough to overcome We Are Men's shortcomings, if the writing improves.
The show is not a snarky sendup of loveless nerds or callous swingers; it's a fairly gentle comedy about burnouts who call themselves a band of brothers.
Like the dullest of origin stories, it all seems pretty perfunctory, a series that longs to be a shaggy hangout show shoehorned into a rickety single-camera framework that may as well be called How I Left Your Mother.
It's hard to escape a feeling that We Are Men is really just TNT's short-lived "Men of a Certain Age" without the ambition, and maybe with a lobotomy.
The existence of this comedy, which pretends to be brash but mainly succeeds in being more offensive, unfunny and predictable than Dads, told me that we have angered the gods.

Oct 10, 2013Maybe Tony Shaloub should've stayed for another season of Monk. But as worse as the new comedies goes (Sean Saves the World), We Are Men is a little less Hangover-like series into another Harold and Kumar movie.

Oct 4, 2013AWFUL. So disappointing. It's like a Saturday Night Live skit that just went on and on and on and on... Such a disappointment since the casting of Tony Shaloub and Kal Penn gave it so much promise. In an ensemble, only one guy should be the designated schtick-man... Jerry O'Connell's brand of over-the-top "comedy" really needed balance. Too bad all of the other guys are jockeying for the Jerry Lewis crown. ICK.… Expand

What is the purpose of this show? Surely it is not to be funny.… Collapse
Oct 1, 2013Why is this show called We Are Men? It should be called We Are Drunk Slut Bitter Children. And what was the targeted demographic here? No women will watch this. Young women won't be attracted to the older stars and older women don't want to watch guys in this stage of life giddily embrace puberty, shunning all semblance of the confident, fully-developed male. Please don't tell me the demographic is men. Please don't teach men that this is attractive. We women are dying for the real thing. We want men, not these ridiculous, self-indulgent babies.… Expand

Home Court Advantage: Channeling School Spirit With a Memorable Mascot
This post is in partnership with Pepsi Refresh Project
A school's mascot can hold a mirror to its heart, historical roots, or just its playful side. To wit, here's a roundup of some of the most unique and memorable mascots in the country that offer a lesson in channeling—and inspiring—school spirit.
Ben & John, Franklin & Marshall College
Founding Father Benjamin Franklin and former Chief Justice of the United States John Marshall inspired the Diplomats, the athletes of Franklin & Marshall College located in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. According to the athletic department website, the Franklin & Marshall football team was penalized during a 1935 match against Fordham University for spending too much time in the clubhouse during halftime, indulging their "penchant for oratory" and going on at length about their game plan. When a New York sports columnist dubbed them the Diplomats, the name stuck. Ben and John were introduced in late 2007, and the historical faces have been formidable—and also perhaps very polite and fair—cheerleaders at their athletic games since.

Gladys the Fighting Squirrel, Mary Baldwin College
Tough as nails? Or cute as a button? These traits are not mutually exclusive, as exhibited by the squirrel that 1) fights, and 2) whose name, of all things, is Gladys. The image of a squirrel, which had been on the family coat of arms of Mary Baldwin, the founder of the college, and incorporated into the official college seal in 1929 and later adopted by the college's sports teams, wasn't really threatening. However, its uniqueness was clinched when the director of the Annual Giving chose the name from submissions during a college staff team-building exercise in 1985 or 1986. It was chosen purely for its randomness.

Supreme Court rules smoking ban applies to private clubs
A sharply divided state Supreme Court says Washington's smoking ban applies to private clubs that have employees.
The Associated Press
OLYMPIA — A sharply divided state Supreme Court ruled today that Washington's smoking ban applies to private clubs that have employees.
In a 5-4 decision, the majority said the law created by Initiative 901 clearly prohibits smoking in workplaces — including private clubs.
American Legion Post 149 in Bremerton sued the state and Kitsap County after it was ordered in 2006 to ban smoking or face prosecution.
The court's dissent argues that voters never intended to require private clubs to be part of the smoking ban, and the initiative didn't change the underlying law to include those clubs.
Voters overwhelmingly approved a statewide indoor smoking ban in 2005. Initiative 901 prohibited smoking in bars, restaurants, bowling alleys, minicasinos, most hotel rooms and most other nontribal businesses that had been exempted by the state's Clean Indoor Air Act, which already banned smoking in most public places.
The post argued that the initiative did not change language in state law that said, "This chapter is not intended to restrict smoking in private facilities which are occasionally open to the public except upon the occasions when the facility is open to the public."
But the majority, led by Justice Mary Fairhurst, said that I-901 broadened the prohibition against smoking to include any place of employment.
While noting that the law is unclear on the relationship between the private facilities exception and prohibition against smoking in any place of employment, the majority said that arguing that exempting private clubs with employees "would eviscerate much of the Act and interfere with the express intent of the voters, which was to protect employees regardless of whether their place of employment is a public place."
In enacting I-901, voters intended to enlarge the smoking ban because of increased concerns with the effects of secondhand smoke, Fairhurst wrote. She was joined by Chief Justice Gerry Alexander, Justices Gerry Alexander, Susan Owens, Barbara Madsen and Justice Pro Tem. Bobbe J. Bridge.
"Unlike the former Clean Indoor Air Act, the voters in Initiative 901 recognized the importance of protecting workers in their places of employment from harmful exposure to secondhand smoke," the majority wrote.
But the dissent said that private facilities are excluded from the law, regardless of whether they have employees.
"To interpret the statute any other way is not only to ignore the text and intent of the voters but also to invite constitutional error," Justice Richard Sanders wrote.
"Undoubtedly the smoking ban regulates private property. But more fundamentally the smoking ban prohibits private conduct. It is this regulation of private conduct I find most disturbing," Sanders wrote.
Justices Tom Chambers and Jim Johnson wrote separate dissents.

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
City to cull hundreds of infected chokecherry trees
City of Winnipeg foresters plan to cut down 800 Shubert chokecherries severely infected with black knot fungus.
The diseased trees are located in most parts of the city but are concentrated in newer developments in Linden Woods, St. Norbert, South St. Vital and West Kildonan, said city forester Martha Barwinsky.
The trees will be culled this year and replaced within three years by a more diverse array of trees, such as Japanese tree lilacs, Amur maples and crabapple trees. Shubert chokecherries, a cultivar of a native tree species, are very susceptible to black knot fungus, which is endemic to the local chokecherry and plum population, Barwinsky explained.
The fungus usually does not kill trees and merely poses an esthetic issue. But chokecherries with advanced infections begin to suffer from other diseases, Barwinsky said.
During a normal year, the city cuts down 150 to 200 Shubert chokecherries.

Tapped out review and cheats
Hello there, today we will target and talk about the mass game made by EA (Electronic Arts), which is a company known for their AAA titles. But apparently the mobile gaming is something they are interested into as well as it generates nice and quick money. So first of all, what are Simpsons Tapped Out about and which OS are supported? Supported are iOS and android as usual. But iOS version was released in 2012 and Android one year later – in 2013. Online gaming is now supported for both platforms. And if you played it you may try Tapped out cheats and then report back to tell us if it is still working.
The game starts with Homer (who else?) who is playing with his myPad and there is a serious situation in the motion – the nuclear power plant is about to do the nuclear meltdown and destroy the whole town of Springfield. But it will not be Homer not to be distracted all the time so it will really happens. But what then if all is gone? Do not worry – this is your task – to rebuild the whole city and to save them all. You will start with what else than with Simpsons house. During the game you will be finding the good old characters and your another task will be to guide them back to their old life. But this game is freemium what means that game is free but asks you for your real money. In the game you will be earning the Cash and XP by sending discovered characters to missions. And this will unlock you more and more characters. The game freemium currency is guess what? Donuts!
If you love Simpsons get this game and give it a try, it is pretty funny as Simpsons could be! And as it is free you will not take that much risk. If you do not want to spend money you may always try the cheat I mentioned in the beginning. Have fun!

"We don't want people to just listen to our music on a surface level. We want people to dive into the songs and dissect them and to really feel them," states Brent Walsh, vocalist for the San Francisco Bay Area band known as I the Mighty.
I the Mighty will release Karma Never Sleeps - their new EP and Equal Vision Records debut – on March 27, 2012. "Our new material is pretty different from our previous releases. Karma Never Sleeps is a lot heavier, a bit darker, and has a moodier ambient," explains bassist Chris Hinkley.
The ambitious and captivating EP, which was produced by Erik Ron [Panic! At The Disco, VersaEmerge, Foxy Shazam], features six sweeping tracks filled with soaring vocals, catchy hooks, charging guitars and explosive instrumentations that make for a mesmerizing whirlwind of cinematic soundscapes.
Karma Never Sleeps envelops the listener into dramatic, dreamlike imagery of tales of political corruption, desperation and despair, and even words of cautionary counseling for the young and reckless. Lyrically infused with powerful and poignant storylines, some tracks take inspiration directly from Walsh's life experiences, while others are written as if they were dreams illuminated onto a screen through a stream of imagination. Seamlessly woven throughout each track is the ubiquitous theme of Karma.
Since their 2007 inception, I the Mighty has melded together effortlessly and has already compiled an impressive following of support on the west coast, seeing regular rotation on local modern rock station Live 105 and sharing stages with the likes of Hawthorne Heights, There For Tomorrow, Deftones and more.
"In a sense, heading into the recording together was really a discovery of what our band would become," explains guitarist Ian Pedigo. "The process was very organic. The first three songs actually stemmed from jam sessions we had while practicing our old sets for live shows."
I the Mighty has undoubtedly achieved their goal of creating bright, bold and memorable music on the new EP but certainly don't plan on slowing down anytime soon. Blake Dahlinger (drums) expounds, "At this point, there isn't one singular goal that would satisfy what we aim to do. We want to tour the world. We want to continuously put out records that will hopefully mean a lot to us as well as many people. We want to put our own stamp on the music scene by developing our own sound. We want to continuously set and reach goals throughout our career so that we can better ourselves as musicians and people."
Walsh concludes, "And the thing we hope for most…is that our music means something to someone, the way that other artists have meant so much to us in our lives."

Last night saw (the filming of) the 2013 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show–not to mention, the 2013 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show pink carpet. Yes, dozens upon dozens of the world's top models gathered to vogue before the show–from your warhorse Angels … More

Earlier today, fashion photographer Bruce Weber revealed that the only model he's ever kicked off set was (his now-friend) Cindy Crawford–the two were working on a Revlon shoot back in the day and apparently the young supermodel was so rude to the crew that Weber lost his temper and sent her home. Crawford in her '90s heyday could get away with just about anything, though, so the ejection probably came as a cruel surprise.
Of course, this one little anecdote doesn't qualify Crawford for the pantheon of models with legendarily bad attitudes–the phone-throwing, trash-talking, always late to everything supermodels like the ones below. More

Chanel's traveling exhibition, The Little Black Jacket, touched down in Brazil for its Sao Paulo leg last night, luring out a laundry list of extremely stylish celebrities–Diane Kruger, MIA, Carine Roitfeld–some "muses" and an endless train of Brazilian supermodels (the pluckiest kind). See what they wore–basically all Chanel, but still–ahead… More

"The kittens was a little bit too energetic"
Watch out for the energetic kittens (-;
» Posted By Mohana Mohini dd On Nov 19, 2014 @ 12:22 pm
ISKCON is meant is meant for "the re-spiritualization of the entire human society" but we only initiate members into our society who agree to follow the 4 regulated principles, chant 16 rounds per day etc. Thus the vast majority of the worlds population who are engaged in the 4 sinful activities are not allowed. By definition a society is exclusive in that it only includes those who follow the rules of that society.
Thus ISKCON is open to any and everyone who wants to follow our rules but not to others. The same applies to Mataji's course.
And BTW the vast majority of men in the western world do not subscribe to the views that you say they subscribe to, and their is a growing tide of women who are also against gender equity.
So my point here is that 'less intelligent/subservient to men' may work for you and some other good ladies of Iskcon (and that's fine with me) but the doctrine is not absolute—not true and applicable in all circumstances—therefore it is subject to reconsideration and adjustment.
Actually it is not erroneous but factual and here the links that Atmavidya Prabhu provided that go deep into the topic.
Srila Prabhupada said that women are less-intelligent than men. Can we support this? http://www.dandavats.com/?p=600
And, "A response to Hari-kirtana prabhu regarding my article": http://www.dandavats.com/?p=740
ISKCON in the West has become irrelevant because of those who want to make it "main stream" instead of providing an alternative to modern secular society.
What you are espousing is the same thing I hear every day from secularist, leftists, social engineers, marxists, LGBT, etc etc, all things that are dragging society down and have no basis in eternal truths but rather in trying to get some sort of market share by watering the "product" down.
And soon to be able to attract the "intelligent class" we will also accept abortion err I mean be "pro-choice" as one feted "devotee" politician is already doing. And then to reach those meat eaters we will allow meat eating, but that will conflict with reaching out to vegans for whom some want to stop milk drinking. You will simply not be able to please everyone, if you do you will please no one. That is what happen when you try to please everyone and give up eternal principles as being "out of date."

Dear Mataji,
Hare Krsna. You are dragging out the old quote from Srila Prabhupada that ISKCON women are "special."
This was brought up recently and challenged in several comments in an article by Mahatma Prabhu but no one including you could respond to the challenge. Here is a link to the unanswered comments/questions.
Basically they ask such questions such as: does this mean that all sastric references to women do not apply to women in ISKCON? Do the laws of nature no longer apply to ISKCON women? Does this mean that ISKCON women, being "special" are never affected by maya?
If ISKCON women are special does it mean that ISKCON men are also special or are they just ordinary?
Do sastric references about men not apply to men in ISKCON or are only ISKCON women excluded from sastric oversight because of their "special" nature?
Can you please explain why Bhakti is gender specific and only edifies females, making them "special" but has no effect whatsoever on males leaving them as ordinary?
Since only the women are affected by Bhakti and thus become "special" why should males even take it up since they can never become "special" an exclusively female prerogative?
And if women are "special" why do I see so many of my female friends (self included) having difficulty in their spiritual life and even falling away? Maybe they are not "special" enough.
As Balakrsna Prabhu pointed out in the comment I linked to —
And let us consider this purport from Srimad Bhagavatam 6.2.26:
"The men of the higher classes — the brahmanas, ksatriyas and vaisyas — do not beget children in the wombs of lower-class women. Therefore the custom in Vedic society is to examine the horoscopes of a girl and boy being considered for marriage to see whether their combination is suitable. Vedic astrology reveals whether one has been born in the vipra-varna, kṣatriya-varna, vaisya-varṇa or sudra-varna, according to the three qualities of material nature. This must be examined because a marriage between a boy of the vipra-varna and a girl of the sudra-varna is incompatible; married life would be miserable for both husband and wife. Consequently a boy should marry a girl of the same category. Of course, this is trai-gunya, a material calculation according to the Vedas, but if the boy and girl are devotees there need be no such considerations. A devotee is transcendental, and therefore in a marriage between devotees, the boy and girl form a very happy combination."
Now considering that the topic of this and previous related article is about the high number of divorces in ISKCON, and unhappy marriages this leads us to the conclusion that:
We members of ISKCON are not the transcendental devotees that Srila Prabhupada is talking about in this purport because "a marriage between devotees, the boy and girl form a very happy combination."

I agree with Puskaraksa there was a decidedly uncomfortable competitive spirit in this text that mothers are more important than fathers etc. That is exactly what the secular world is telling us, that fathers are not important only mothers hence we now have a serious problem in the west of single parent families where the father is absent leading to a myriad of problems and the break down of society. Who needs fathers, after all mother is 1000 times more important than father. Is this what we really want to tell devotees?
This was not a balanced article.

Husband As Guru – How About Srila Prabhupada As Guru?
Mahatma Prabhu said "don't make unreasonable demands of your wife." But to an unsubmisive wife any request from her husband is unreasonable.

The Not-So-Hot Issue: Women Diksa-gurus
The following article http://www.dandavats.com/?p=12087 by Dusyanta Prabhu is an excellent response to your book and position in general. Dusyanta writes:
… So just to show one example of the misrepresentation of the download ["Did Srila Prabhupada want Women Diksa Gurus"] there is a quote from the Chaitanya Charitamrta 1.34;

She states that "the female nature is more emotional" and that "this emotional nature can also become an impediment and obstacle, especially since emotions tend to cloudy our vision and intelligence to such extend that we cannot see things as they really are."
And therefore I – and perhaps other readers of both genders – find myself scratching my head and asking myself: "If according to Devaki Mataji this is a hot issue and if women's vision is clouded by emotions and 'they cannot see things as they really are,' why on earth she attempted to write this article and provide clarity? If she is clouded, why does she try to instruct the whole world?"
If what she writes is right, this article must be "clouded by emotions" and therefore unfit for consumption by the assembly of Vaisnavas.
I have a family friend. All members of that family are devotees including the parents. They come from a cultured Indian family. So one day after her daughters had gotten married there was one unmarried son who was also a devotee.The mother came to her son and with great love and compassion began to explain the part in the Srimad Bhagavatam where Urvashi instructed Pururava SB 9.14.36 that "you should know that the heart of a woman is like that of a fox. There is no use making friendship with women." She then said,"what Urvasi said is true,therefore my son, please don't get married."
The son was stunned. Here was his mother who was also a female revealing the deep realities of life to him by confirming the statement in the sastras. Out of love she wanted to protect him and help him in his spiritual life so she told him the truth and it shattered any illusion he had about material happiness. He believed his mother because what she said was based on the sastra and never married. He is now a respected sannyasi in ISKCON.
But if Kaunteya had been the son he would have thought "well my mother is also a woman so she also has a heart like a fox so why I should I believe her, let me get married."

The Hot Issue – Female Diksa Guru
Please accept my obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
In a situation where a guru has been giving siksa and personal guidance for many years–even a decade–to a particular disciple, where there is a firm relationship of guru/disciple, where the disciple has been worshiping and studying from and serving his or her siksa guru for many years–why is it better for that disciple to take diksa from someone else, only because the siksa guru is female? (And often the "someone else" has little or no relationship or personal knowledge of the disciple).
Your servant, Urmila devi dasi
Why so much concern? I know several devotees who have little or no relationship with their diksha guru but rather consider other god brothers of their diksha guru as their shiksha gurus and completely ignore their diksa guru except in a perfunctory way. They show all respect and courtesy to the diksha guru but do not ask for any guidance.
So if the light from the female shiksha is so bright then who will stop people from taking their shiksa?
It seems that material concepts have become entangled with spiritual concepts that somehow it is more materially prestigious to be a "diksha guru" how sad. It shows attachment to material prestige and actual disqualification to give shiksha what to speak of diksha. Back in the 1990s we used to call this condition "DADS" – Dreaded Acarya Disease Syndrome.
Some one who is so driven and attached to being a guru is the last person who should be a guru.

Regarding comment #1 Devaki Mataji, completely substantiated her position when she quoted from sastra that even in the higher spiritual realms there is distinction between the sexes and that the male understanding is superior. When SP said the girls were just as good at preaching that in now way contradicted his statement in the Srimad Bhagavatam, it just shows that everything else being equal the realization of the male will be higher. Or are you saying that Srila Prabhupada was mistaken in the purport that Devaki quoted? A purport based on the commentaries of several acarayas who were off the bodily concept of life.
And I have experience that also confirms what Devaki said. Here in Mayapura the mataji wanted to give class, so they arranged that the ladies give separate class to ladies. That lasted for a while as the ladies lost interest in listening to women give class but preferred to hear men give class and even the matajis who gave classes preferred to hear the men. But at one women's convention in Radhadesha the women passed a resolution that they be allowed to give classes to both men and women and the men be forced to stay and listen to the women give class even if the men didn't want to. Something is very strange with this type of mentality.

This is a good article but I think that the penultimate paragraph was over the top and contradicted the quoted purport from the Srimad Bhagavatam. Aside from that I agree.
If a woman is actually enlightened you will not be able to stop people from seeking her light. Not that she needs some formal title. To me it appears that this push for Female Diksha Gurus is not coming from the spiritual plane.
So many devotees are strongly preaching without the need for being diksha gurus. I recently read the current SAC paper on FDG and was disappointed by the claim that one can only preach if one is a diksha guru. This is surely an insult to all those sincere preachers out there who are pushing on Lord Caitanya's movement and who have no interest in being diksha gurus.

On the Subject of Female Diksha Gurus
My dear Mother Phalini Mataji,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to you.
I just wanted to thank you for writing this wonderful text full of deep realizations and coming straight from the heart, you must be directly inspired by paramatma.
While the men who are commenting on this text argue about points of sastra and logic, the women in my ladies sangha all agreed with what you wrote because of our direct experience of what it means to have a female form. Many of us have experience of what happens when we go against our nature (dharma) and try to be like men. We lose our femininity that is so pleasing to Lord Krsna, and we don't do a good a job of being a man either. So it is a lose-lose situation.
May Srimati Radharani and Her beloved Lord Krsna bless you with many more years so that you will inspire us with more of your writings and hopefully personal association.
Your humble servant

Dhruva Maharaja lived in Satya Yuga or the Golden Age. The difference between Satya Yuga and Kali Yuga is like the summer and winter seasons. During Satya Yuga all good qualities of human beings were inevitably present whereas in Kali Yuga hardly any good qualities decorate humankind. In Satya Yuga the people practically equaled paramahamsas while now in the Iron Age practically everyone has become a mleccha.
I fail to see your logic here. Most of the Bhagavatam contains episodes from yugas other than Kali so does that mean that we should jettison 3/4 of the Bhagavatam? Where does any acarya say that because it took place in Satya yuga it should not be followed in Kali yuga. It looks to me that you are trying to warp the teachings to fit your own bias.
Another thing, in Satya yuga women were paramahamsa in comparison to kali yuga, so if they could not be diksha guru then, how then in a much more degraded kali yuga they can now become diksha guru when they have degraded. This makes absolutely no sense at all. According to you the more degraded the better suited a person is to taking up higher positions.

Female Diksha Gurus – "Yes. But, Not So Many." Sp
In #1 Kesava Krsna wrote:
"I think it is incorrect to say that only the "extreme" factions oppose lady guruship. That is a generalisation. I have written in defence of women devotees against 'conservative' views, but I need to be convinced that there is a compelling case for lady guruship. I do not consider myself to be a 'conservative' the way it is depicted in this article.
Whenever Srila Prabhupada cited historical examples, we usually see only one unique and outstanding name mentioned – that of Sri Jahnava Mata. This is rare indeed.
The problem now is weighing Her example up in the modern era. Just as we can cite Her rarity, we can also cite the relative frequency of male gurus. The pressing issue here is why the urge to push for a position of guruship, whether pursued by males or females? Is there competitiveness in wanting to emulate what males already do?
Are there any records of Sri Jahnava Mata being granted guruship because she petitioned for it? That question alone would be an insult if applied to Her. Her greatness and all allied divine qualities earned Her that position, though She would not have sought it Herself. She was recognised as 'self-effulgent.' Hers is a "hard act to follow" so to speak. She was an exception, not the rule.
Thank you very much for your wise words. Indeed it is not an extremist position but a sane position held by many in ISKCON. If male gurus fell down in the past then it just shows that there is a need to be more selective as to which man fill that post. Actually I think that it was because they took sannyasa in an era in ISKCON when sannyasa candidates weren't vetted like they are today. Very few if any sannyasis who were carefully vetted have fallen down. So as the old generation of sannyasis dies off you we will have much fewer fall downs and then there will be nothing to point fingers at.
Women can also make major blunders just like the 1st woman head of the 25 million strong German Lutheran Church, Bishop Margot Kaessmann, was arrested after she ran a red light while intoxicated and 3X over the legal limit. You can read about it here http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/8530736.stm

Ajamila said:
"In your part 1 reply you imply that no women in ISKCON are up to the standard of Sri Jahnava Mata. But who is qualified to judge that? What about Yamuna Devi Dasi? Srila Prabhupada said speficially that all his sons and daughters are not ordinary but you imply his daughters are ordinary. That's unfair.
Jahnava mata was an incarnation of Anangamanjari, the younger sister of Srimati Radharani, she was in the category of Laxsmi tattva and married to a purusha Who was in category of Visnutattva–she could manifest four arms. Are you saying that Yamuna Mataji was in Laxsmitattva and could manifest four arms? Are you seriously saying that anyone male or female in ISKCON is on this level? Let us be serious here.
Please state categorically if you think that Yamuna dd was Laxsmitattva.
Aside from that Yamuna dd is not one of the persons who is ambitiously campaigning to be a diksha guru. So why bring her up at all?
You say "who is qualified to judge that?" only someone who can tell if she has four arms. So better to be on the safe side and not do something we will regret later when we become sober. If you can't tell what the qualification is of a person then you should not be promoting something that requires that the lady actually be an exception. As someone else wrote: "Exceptions to the rule must be exceptional." And those exceptions should be obvious to everyone. It seems to me and a lot of others here that what is happening is that unexceptional ladies are being pushed forward and equated by you as equivalent to mother Jahnava–Laxsmi-tattva. And if someone complains that they are not exceptional according to strict definition you then retort "But are you qualified to judge?" There is something decidedly wrong with this way of doing things.
This makes for a very fearful situation in ISKCON.

Respecting Our Women In Iskcon
I am a little late to this party, I avoided reading the article because as other commentators mentioned it was just another futile walk down the path of the "culture wars" which makes maya smile while we grab the iron like stalks of grass like the Yadus did and club each other to death with offenses.
On reading the comments I found #28 by Mother Narada Priya to be the most stinging because it woke me up with its painful and brutal honesty. Note that I didn't call it offensive. It was just the bald face truth.
BBD texts were entertaining excursions into fantasy. By studying a few pictures he sets out to disprove all of the sastra. We note that none of the pictures he linked to showed any higher class Vedic families as none of the men are wearing brahmana threads. His conclusions based on how labourers and low class people lived and projecting that onto the whole of society would be like making conclusions about the dress codes of Western society based on pictures of the sartorial tastes of the Hell's Angels http://tinyurl.com/b64cay7 or Goths http://tinyurl.com/a8uoy28
When Draupadi was first introduced to Narada Muni she is said to have been very modestly dressed and wearing a veil across her face. In the Iliad it is said that when Andromache, wife of Hector, heard that her husband had been killed she fainted and the veil fell off her face. Respectable Roman women covered their heads. Ancient Chinese women also wore very modest clothes
This was well before the rise of Islam. Cultured Japanese ladies were also modestly dressed http://digital.library.upenn.edu/women/omori/court/court.html
Returning to Vedic culture we rely not on BBD faulty vision but on the revalations of the sastras and our acaryas. Rupa and Sanatana gosvami personaly saw how Radha and Krsna and their associates dressed. So did Srila Prabhupada and Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati thakura. I have faith in their descriptions of how the denizens of the spiritual world dressed. As well as followers of Vedic culture. When BSST visited South India he pointed out to his disciples that the way the men and women of the higher classes dressed was the traditional Vedic style. Thus BST's opinion is exactly opposite to that of BBD. So who do I choose to put my faith in BSST a self realized soul who has direct access to Lord Krsna, or to BBD who is a conditioned soul?

OPEN LETTER TO Bhakti Vikasa Swami
I also took the time to listen very closely to BVKS's talk and I agree with what Bhakta Dasa wrote in comment #28
We need to distinguish between actual Bhakti and sentimentality.
"So Bhagavata begins with this word of Vedanta-sutra, janmady asya yatah anvayad itaratas ca arthesu abhijnah svarat. So it is the, in the beginning, Srimad-Bhagavatam is the explanation of the Vedanta-sutra. Srila Jiva Gosvami has recommended, therefore, one should learn Bhagavatam from a person who knows Vedanta-sutra. Sruti-grhitaya, bhaktya sruti-grhitaya. Bhakti should be generated, sruti-grhitaya, by studying Vedanta-sutra. Bhakti is not sentiment. Bhakti is the transcendental science." Srimad-Bhagavatam 1.10.1 – Mayapura, June 16, 1973
"Seva mean there is a sevaka and there is a master, sevya, one who is worshiped and one who serves. Then the process is called bhakti. Here it is also said, bhaktya. What kind of bhakti? Bhaktya sruta-grhitaya. Sruta, by hearing sruti, or Vedas. Completely on the basis of Vedic knowledge, that bhakti, not sentimental. Sentimental bhakti is also there, because the acceptance of Krsna is there. Therefore there is some value. But real bhakti, Sri Jiva Gosvami has commented that bhakti based on understanding of Vedanta-sutra is perfect, on the basis of jnana, knowledge, and vairagya. That is… And Krsna has also said, brahma-sutra-padais caiva hetumadbhir viniscitaih [Bg. 13.5]. Brahma-sutra means Vedanta-sutra." Srimad-Bhagavatam 1.2.12 – Delhi, November 18, 1973

Dear Kulapavana Prabhu,
Hare Krsna.
Maybe this conversation quote with Srila Pabhupada will help you to understand. In it Srila Prabhupada explains that when a woman becomes a wife of a brahmana she is designated as a brahmani but she is not actually a brahmana. But because she is the wife of a brahmana only she is called a brahmani, it is only a social convention and sign of respect and indicates she is in the family of a brahmana.
"Prabhupada: In, actually, in Bengal, Bengal has lost its original culture. In other provinces the brahmana class, they are keeping very strictly the original culture. Even a brahmana would not accept foodstuff prepared by his wife, because woman is considered sudra. The woman, when she becomes the wife of a brahmana, then she is called brahmani, but she's not offered brahminical culture. She remains as sudra. So therefore a strict brahmana does not accept foodstuff prepared by his wife. Still there are in U.P. The wife will arrange for cooking, and he'll sit down and cook dal, capatis. Then he will eat, and whatever remains, that is there, that will be taken by her. But he will not take foodstuff cooked by his wife even." Room Conversation–August 2, 1976, New Mayapur (French farm)

Dear Sita Mataji,
Hare Krsna.
I just wanted to thank you for your efforts on behalf of all the women who actually want to follow true Krsna Consciousness and not the watered down Westernized version. It is very hard to give up our material conditioning so it is disheartening to see others who encourage us to be more conditioned than we already are. My friends and I have been following this discussion and are really inspired by your writing and feel that you must be getting realizations from Paramatma and Srila Prabhupada to write so nicely. Please know that you have many matajis who support you so please keep up what you are doing. May Srimati Radharani, the personification of chastity, give you all Her blessings.

I will like to ask some question to all opposing her here. When you call some one Mataji do you not consider her mataji? Mataji = Mother, it is absolutely pervert to see sexual bias when you consider her as mother. I learnt basics of my life from my mother and then higher understanding through Mother Urmila, I wonder what level people want here to seat some one on Vyasasana more then mother.
To answer this Maharaja Yayati said:
matra svasra duhitra va
naviviktasano bhavet
balavan indriya-gramo
vidvamsam api karsati
"One should not allow oneself to sit on the same seat even with one's own mother, sister or daughter, for the senses are so strong that even though one is very advanced in knowledge, he may be attracted by sex."

|Budinger, Bayless lead No. 17 Arizona to 96-73 exhibition win over Team Georgia
|Written by Admin
|Thursday, 08 November 2007 19:32
The Wildcats were without head coach Lute Olson, who is on a leave of absence due to personal reasons. Assistant Kevin O'Neill ran the team in Olson's place.
Aleksey Adediran led Team Georgia with 14 points while Dimitri Evans had 13.
Daniel Dillon's 3-pointer capped a 12-2 run that gave the Wildcats a 73-59 lead with 9:24 remaining.
Budinger had 17 points in the first half as Arizona took a 45-35 lead.
Jamelle Horne finished with 16 points and nine rebounds for the Wildcats, who open the regular season against Northern Arizona on Tuesday.
