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

Choi, Fletcher lead fundraising in Ramsey County races

St. Paul City Attorney John Choi has come out at the top of the fundraising heap so far in the race for Ramsey County attorney.
Choi raised $76,193 in 2009, according to a finance report filed Monday. Dave Pinto, an assistant Ramsey County attorney, came in next at $43,005.
The other two candidates were private attorney David Schultz, who brought in $39,242, and Roseville City Council member Tammy Pust, who raised $31,636.
Expenditures were as follows: Choi, $20,425; Pinto, $38,469; Schultz, $61,888; and Pust, $5,158.
Schultz's total expenses, which put his cash-on-hand into the red, include an as-yet-unpaid ad contract with Clear Channel for $39,450.
The four are vying for the seat now held by Susan Gaertner, who is running for governor.
In the race for Ramsey County sheriff, two people — Matt Bostrom and Lisa Goodman — have said they'll challenge incumbent Bob Fletcher.
Fletcher raised $36,360 from Jan. 1 to Dec. 31, 2009, and spent nearly $20,000.
Bostrom, an assistant St. Paul police chief, raised $8,360 from Nov. 25 to Jan. 26 and spent about $500.
Goodman, St. Catherine University director of public safety, raised $1,900 between Dec. 22 and Sunday, and spent about $800.
Both Bostrom and Goodman have said they'll seek the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party endorsement, though the race is not a partisan one.
Emily Gurnon can be reached at 651-228-5522. Mara H. Gottfried can be reached at 651-228-5262.
Bostrom has had one fundraiser and Fletcher raised most of his money before the Metro Strike Force debacle blew up in his face.
What did Fletcher spend 20,000 on so far? He's been invisible on the campaign trail so far? Lawyer fees?
What will be interesting is to see how much is raised from this point on, now that the race is really starting. Fletcher is at his lowest point of cash going into an election year since he's been the Sheriff (16,000). That's peanuts after spending one year raising money.
Goodbye Fletcher.
Goodbye Susan Gaertner !!!
Susan is not running for re-election.
