SHHHH! While we listen to words of wisdom from a wise man.
Conscience is the light of the Soul that burns within the chambers of our psychological heart. It is as real as life is. It raises the voice in protest whenever anything is thought of or done contrary to the righteousness. Conscience is a form of truth that has been transferred through our genetic stock in the form of the knowledge of our own acts and feelings as right or wrong. A virtuous and courageous person can alone use the instrument of conscience. He or she can alone hear the inner voice of the soul clearly. In a wicked person this faculty is absent. The sensitive nature of his / her conscience has been destroyed by sin or corruption. Hence he or she is unable to discriminate right from wrong. Those who are leading organizations, business enterprises, institutions and governments should develop this virtue of the ability to use their own conscience. This wisdom of using the clean conscience will enable them to enjoy the freedom.
Dr APJ Kalam, President of India given during the inauguration of the seminar on “THE EFFECTS OF CORRUPTION ON GOOD GOVERNANCE AND HUMAN RIGHTS

I don't know what they are doing at the State level, but my landlord was here 2 days ago and inofrmed me that my rent was going up in 30 days to cover the cost of a new program that the city started to come and inspect my house. Sfter thinking about it I called him the next day and gave him my notice to move.
What is the matter with you people here?
I have lived in many different places and never had the experience where a city thinks they have some kind of right to enter the place I live in. I'm out of the appartment and out of St Paul, I am not going to tolerate government agents tramping through my living space.
The bill got out of committee tonight with bipartisan support.
10:20, Ya know if ya took a survey, i think ya would find most renters don't want these city officials in their house.
They claim it's for safety but i think it's just a bit of big brother watching ya.
i don't think i would live in saint paul.
BUNCH OF COMMIES IN LEADERSHIP THERE...
When is someone going to pass a law requiring the renter to be responsible for something?
RTFA (For fark.com users, you know what this means)
The bill allows someone who is being beaten or threatened by their spouse or significant other to break a lease and vacate the residence upon securing an Order for Protection from the court. The renter has to pay all rent owed, including the month they vacate, as well as an additional month as an administrative fee for breaking the lease.
Some very impassioned testimony by a victim of an 11 year stalking campaign spoke to the committee, her testimony was relevant, powerful, and clearly made an impact.
A representative from the MN Multi-family Housing Assn. spoke in support of the bill, which was moved out of a house committee on a bi-partisan and unanimous vote, now moves on for some language clarification and possible inclusion in the omnibus bill.
Now for those of you who think that this might give a landlord the shaft, consider a situation where the victim has to stay for the whole lease term. The abuser comes back and shoots the victim in the head, blood all over the carpet, etc, etc, etc. How much do you think that will cost the landlord, not to mention the cost to the victim's family - a cost that can never be covered (the loss of life).
As I have stated before I manage properties in Anoka County, I have been doing apartment inspections with Fire and building inspectors for 3 years now on each apartment. There is one advantage of the inspection for the property owner. The property owner also has an oppertunity to see the condition of their investment, until your inside you have no idea how much damage the tenants may be doing. Also it is the tenants responsibility to keep the apartment clean and free from excessive clutter for the safety of the other tenants or their particular unit only will be condemned for clean up. St.Paul uses this tool for other means of punishment that focuses more on the property owner such as a complete code compliance where the whole complex gets condemned which puts all tenants out of a home due to one bad tenent, and usually costs the property owner tens of thousands of dollars. Thats is not what the intended purpose of these inspections is suppose to be. And yes tenants do get very tired of having their privacy invaded due to inspections being that I also complete 3 per year myself and turn in a written report of the apartments condition and corrections we make to the city. Anoka county is very willing to work with property owners when it comes to repairs and being cost efficent compared to St.Paul where their goal appears to be more of a take and demolish goal.
