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

St. Paul / Businesses get grants for security
Highland council passes on city funds for off-duty cops

St. Paul's Highland District Council unanimously approved a measure Thursday night to offer grants to area businesses to hire off-duty police officers.
Highland Park residents are concerned about crime in the neighborhood and want additional police presence. They came up with an idea to use $10,000 from a crime-prevention grant, which all of St. Paul's district councils receive from the city, to hire off-duty police officers.
The original proposal was voted down during the district council's October meeting. In that version, with the district council hiring the off-duty St. Paul officers, there were concerns about who the officers would be reporting to and whether the council could face liability issues.
The measure that passed Thursday alleviated those concerns.
Businesses, which could include apartment complexes and shopping centers, will apply for grants from the Highland District Council and hire off-duty officers themselves. The district council would reimburse them for 75 percent of the cost.
While businesses frequently hire off-duty police officers, the Highland District Council is believed to be the first in the city to offer grants for such a purpose.
The money must be used by the end of the year.
An amendment was made to offer grants to businesses to install security cameras. It did not pass, but the district council expressed interest in pursuing such a plan in the future.
