sincroy i'm a with his i will blower i brought any complaint and my retaliation complaint in the ethics commission in 2010 all of them were dismissed i sued the city and got a $750,000 and the city had to pay $1.2 million hit for the taxpayers notice of violation records show that whistle blowers claims have been investigated since june of 1995 some 60 retaliation complaints through the notifications not one zero have been substantiated it is for the benchmark issued by the big corporation that studies 8 thousand whistle blower hostile line it is 10 percent internationally here zero percent so this staggering statistics suggests the ethics commission is complexity in the repression of city employees with break ranks in order to serve the public interest this commissioner is a dead end for whistle blowers first of all you whistle blowers have threats not assets your investigations are sfoishl and there's aimed at ex-ordinarily respondent that's the intention instead of being have not you do submit to city its third reading who's duties to defend city officials that are exposes by whistle

as a practical matter the ethics commission get i think dated with questions a that's what we're here for i know i personally and i'm sure the colleagues at the ethics commission we're happy to meet with anyone to talk about ethics issues i get asked that frequently i'm sure you guys do but especially the regulation is something we can work on >> the other thing to follow up is that staff even though this is not in the regulation certainly the reason we had proposed this for consideration now is to ramp up sort of our outreach efforts so we were talking with the filing officers getting out there telling people about the online filing because the filing really is triggered april 1st next year we want to start in august to start with this outreach effort i mean it will still be polk but mower our condensed if we do it later on. >> my comment it falls terms of staff to make sure we're going to hold folks be transparent and the folks the training is needed so they'll not find themselves running afoul of any requirements. >> i take it if we're talking about 3 thousand employees expansion o

safe, legal, ethical, and effective was the mantra commandos was safe, legal, and ethical meant. we will say it won't cause harm, but we will keep it legal and we will keep us safe for the torturers. amy: what was satisfy you, dr. stephen soldz, for the americans psychological association? >> that is a long list, so i can go over all of it, but we need to see that they really understand the depth of what went wrong, to come to term with what was wrong in the association that this could go on for so many years, change the policy, and they have proposed doing that to ban psychologist participating in interrogation. there are possible loopholes that we have some concerns about that need to be worked out. the whole coulter of the apa deeds to change. it is a culture of getting along and doing whatever the leadership once and not raising questions. and that allowed this to go on for decades, that allowed even people in the top who were told over and over again something is not right here, they closed their eyes to it. and we can't have that happen again. amy: will there be firings? >>

because overall the ethics commission is sloped to be the top ethical agency in this city thank you. >> hi commissioner mark solomon when i first got involved in politics in the late 90s i met a commissioner that was drunk there are two types one that runs the department and one the department runs the commission there is a balance the commission and staff has a productive relationship with staff what we have is not going to get here mr. sincroy was outside of the city and cultural of san francisco but the canned school of governments maybe put an ivy league masters program what we've seen from harvard university in with supervisor campos and supervisor wiener has not been any more than someone trying to benefit the folks in san francisco that is the nature of the corruption we want someone that is not afraid to stand up for their issues to make sure the laws are enforced no matter who is coming up up and tribe it didn't see manipulating in the city family i'm not sure how to craft that kind of language to that person can have someone with a record of enforcement a record of some sor

that the ethics commission needs to conclude it's investigation of the two ethics complaints against commissioner wendy pass skin jordan. it turned out it was an interested person's meeting regarding the november ballot which occurred. i had to wait until june 29th to testify to the full ethics commission about commissioner pass kin jordan. i repeated to them that pass skin jordan stated on a video posted on youtube that she had aggregated funds to qualify for the bgi threshold. i asked to look at those allegations in the anonymous complaints that she had aggregated funds. i noted several registered investment advisors refute the claim that ria's are not held to the minimum thresholds as investors to verdict with independent non-city deputy attorney. we will get an honest reading on that particular issue. i again urge you to consider under your own code of conduct discussing ms. pass kin jordan's involvement with bgi in aggregating funds. thank you. >> is there anyone else who would like to speak on this item. all right. a motion and second is received. let's do a roll call vote. >>

i'm here with the friends of ethics a number of fast points there are circumstances you want to redact the information on a filer for example, a filer living at a bearded women's shelter we don't make the addresses possible but an employee or a person that has an restraining order you don't want that information exploded to the point when you talk about having redaction's and exemptions he need to spell how out with clarity the basis so it is not true this is one thing the second thing in terms of training i was a form 7 hundred filer with the city and a federal employee who had to file federal forms all of those are done by train online that is mentioned a quiz you take and didn't answer everything so if you have a whole lot of holdings at ida b. wells do you have to list all of them those kinds of questions readily pop to mind that kind of training didn't take a lot of staff time this is a state form no reason why ethics can't move forward with other agencies across the state to develop a protocol and training people can assess at their homes or office and have a group meeting we hav

number 6 on the agenda the discussion and possible for the matters subject under chapter three of the ethics commission report as the commissioners may recall this is a matter that was before us some months ago and is now came back to us from the sunshine committee after the sunshine task force after we sent it back to them. >> that's correct but by way of classification did the commission approve the draft responses to the - >> before i all right. i've been requirement i didn't get a specific motions does anybody have a motion to approve the responds. >> second. >> all right. any discussion? any public comment from we vote on this? >> if i heard correctly you're going to approve the response to the civil grand jury report. >> yes. >> it is very vague maybe we'll do it partially agree at some point consider that can. >> it would be more reinsuring if someone takes this on a a subcommittee like commissioner renne. >> the other comment. >> i'm sure i didn't see the agenda the ginsburger matter. >> they've reminded me i didn't get a vote on approving the responses to the generalizing report ite

because overall the ethics commission is sloped to be the top ethical agency in this city thank you. >> hi commissioner mark solomon when i first got involved in politics in the late 90s i met a commissioner that was drunk there are two types one that runs the department and one the department runs the commission there is a balance the commission and staff has a productive relationship with staff what we have is not going to get here mr. sincroy was outside of the city and cultural of san francisco but the canned school of governments maybe put an ivy league masters program what we've seen from harvard university in with supervisor campos and supervisor wiener has not been any more than someone trying to benefit the folks in san francisco that is the nature of the corruption we want someone that is not afraid to stand up for their issues to make sure the laws are enforced no matter who is coming up up and tribe it didn't see manipulating in the city family i'm not sure how to craft that kind of language to that person can have someone with a record of enforcement a record of some sor

joining us is charles, who calls himself an ethical founder. he joins us from syracuse. so many of us team to scratch the surface of the internet. why do we need the dark web? >> well, thank you for having me, first. the dark web is meant to interact people on a level where it can get a little scary. it's not necessary, but the people that do the services seem to get pushed further and further down because they've got, well, something to hide. as you saw, there's a lot to do with things you can't do in the real world. if you are caught in the real world doing it you'll spend a lot of time in gaol. >> that's the point. they are having to hide because so much of the activity is illegal. given that, why have the dark web provided protection. >> it's not that it is providing them with protection, it's what it was designed for. it was to help people communicate anonymously. to traverse proportions of the outer level. as you call it, the crust of the web, for people not to worry about people tracking them. same principle that people turned to witness protection in the real wor

an association inquiry found that ethical guidelines were used to support abusive techniques. they included water boarding and sleep deprivation techniques. explains how the medical code of ethics has been abused. >> it's been violateso badly that one act performed by the detainees called rectal rehydration when detainees decided to go on hunger strike, physicians for human rights and other medical associations considered that medical act to be a complete act of torture of sexual assault actually. so the psychologists helped in things like rectal rehydration and other horrific tortures act and should be held accountable at the very least by their ethical board but perhaps criminal charges. >>> families are mourning the dead of the first anniversary of the shooting down of an malasian airlines flight. the memorial service has been held in kuala lumpur as krishna vias reports. >> reporter: a year on and the feelings are still raw flight 17 when it went down in kuala lumpur. the prime minister tries to comfort the next of kin. >> closure is absolutely vital so the next of kin can

erron is a specialist in psychiatry and medical ethics. when they poll people and say are you in favour of physician assisted suicide, most say no. >> the california medical association long against the idea recently reduced its stance to neutral. it's controversial with many doctors. this is contrary to a long tradition in medicine, of ethics going back to the hippocratic oath, principles of ethics - physicians use knowledge and skills for the purposes of health and healing. >> have you worked with patients contemplating ending their life because of medical pain. i have worked with patients that said things offhand along the lines that they can't go on. there's something psychologically or in terms of their social support or medically that we need to do a better job to address. once we do that, this desire to die issues. suicide is a distress signal, it's a fry for help >>> as for dan diaz, he says he's only begun to fight. britney. >> why are you still out there on the front fighting for the californians. >> as tamping as this -- taxing

. >> larry bush for friends of ethics i'd like to remind the commission a few years ago you forwarded a measure to the board which they didn't put up the ballot that awe limited for the purposes of act it was overwhelmingly defeated from the republican to the democratic party to the skooesh every group defeated it you'll have done all this for nothing in common trusts what it means when you say for the purposes of the act for example, you all took the position it was okay. not to have go reporting on contracts to the commission from city officials and the opinion was that that freed up other staff time so you didn't need to take the time to do it none agreed the reason our going through this by line by library another commissions inadequately changed the law with the mrmths look at the chamber of commerce they said the chamber used to be considered a lobbyist and but the board of supervisors changed the law there are larry that was the law passed by this commission in 2010 and it gutted any reporting from the chamber of commerce you have not fixed it you're trying to fix what was done

scott was selected as the field training program supervisor, where once again scott's leadership, work ethic, and mentoring were instrumental in bringing our new hires up to speed. scott was a member of our special response unit, s.w.a.t. as well as the team's senior team leader where he served as both the sniper and entry team leader. scott personified the warrior spirit and everything that he did, his commitment to excellence, his drive, his leadership, his can do attitude. he was an example of how we should live our lives every day. scott lived big, really big. so as i close, i would like to leave you with this quote. "life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body. but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming, wow! what a ride!" here's to you, scott. it was one hell of a ride. >> i would like to introduce hayward police department acting sergeant brian maloney. >> i got one running, adam 5-3 i'm with him. that's what it was like working with scott lunger. family and friends of sc

soccer supported the investigation by the fifa ethics committee into the bidding and award processes for the 2018 and 2022 world cups. and publicly advocated for the release of the full investigative report, not just the summary report released by fifa last fall. u.s. soccer was one of the national associations which nominated prince ali and then publicly supported his challenge to fifa's long standing president mr. sepp blatter in a recent election. we did so including potential impact on our possible bid, the host the 2026 mens world cup. but u.s. soccer believes good governance and good leadership at fifa is paramount and more important to the sport than hosting any individual world cup. going forward we believe reform will have to start at the top beginning with the election of a new fifa president in light of mr. blatter's stated intention to resign. u.s. soccer will look to the new president to lead this reform. we understand many traditional soccer powers also believe it is time for a change. u.s. soccer will continue to work with like minded national associations and confeder

network ethic -- that work ethic has stayed with me. a lot of what we do in congress is constituent services. i try to treat that like a business in the sense that, it is customer service. we have to respond quickly to constituents. i really credit my parents with the values they instilled in me, just a strong weather -- strong work ethic, but also the idea that you can achieve anything. my parents didn't have the opportunity to graduate college. they are both very smart and a couple. they are from big families and it just wasn't economically feasible. they made sure they invested in my education to give me better opportunities than they had. my brother is a big supporter of meat running for office. he is not political at all. -- of me running for office. he does a great job running the business. we are opposites in many respects. he is very supportive other and i am happy to have them on the stage when i won the primary in november. there is a picture that probably ran in the new york times of hus us hugging. >> did you talk about poli

it's just not one we're permitted to ethically answer. >> are there more suspects? it sounded like when other people were talking, you said murderers, the persons responsible. do you believe lloyd welch acted alone or do you believe there were other people involved? >> i'll leave you with the words the investigation continues. we've indicted one individual and the investigation continues. i think there's a logical conclusion you can reach. >> why is the indictment in bedford county instead of montgomery county. do you have evidence the crime occurred in bedford county. >> yes. we have to apply the charge that was in place in 197 a 5. -- 1975. in 1975, first degree felony murder carried the penalty of 20 years to life or death. >> is d.n.a. testing being done? >> no comment. >> we're looking at two counts obviously in the case. >> yes, there are two counts one for each victim. >> is there any indication that there was obstruction by family members? >> noncooperation has prohoppinged this -- prolonged this investigation and made it difficult. whether or not it amounts

he is hampered ethics committee. i'm overtime. two of the his instruction. his pr operation briefed the wire services that he is innocent, but this international sports leader can only travel to russia in states which would. that's not an international leader. what america can do is engage with clean and decent proper associations around the world create a new organization based on benevolent and invite sponsors and tv networks to go with it. i get see coca-cola, mcdonald's and these are preferring the remnants of blacks organized crime family. there's one other crucial thing the u.s. soccer should do. some of you may remember, when the u.s. olympic committee was in disarray over the salt lake scandal, 16 years ago, they called it senator george mitchell and others to investigate where they had gone wrong with the i see. and make recommendations to reform. external respected, nonpartisan and respected organizations. this committee set up a similar independent committee to find out what on earth has gone so badly wrong with what's being covered. also used soc

>> are they doing ethically or not? ethical pimping in germany. ethical pimping. but no, i think it is fine to do this but i think that they have sort of started to scrape the barrel on the left because this is huge bubble now. we ear clearly have a problem with higher education. becoming more and more expensive. so many things we could do. not lend people money. the degrees that are stupid. kennedy: the way universities are run, only inflates the bubble. >> right. and so, we're going around the country on the right, hey we have a big problem with the bubble. we need to restructure. no, no a lottery? it does strike me he is sort of scraping the barrel before acknowledging the problem. if they want to it up a lottery, great. kennedy: they're certainly not doing anything about student debt. did you come away from college with debt? >> yes. went to school on full tuition acting scholarship. it was private institution. i stayed on campus. i had to pay room and board. i'm still five years later paying off loans. kennedy: loan for room and board. that is one of the bigg

there should be some kind of ethics or guidelines for people doing this. there was a big challenge, early on, you have people that were well-trained technically, but they didn't have any professional ethical or moral guidelines about accessing computers. that's took quite a while. for many of you in the audience, you know that we have courses were ethical computer hacking. that as a backdrop to all of this. getting the educational training goes hand-in-hand with the technology. you will create people that are ethical hackers and people that will not be abusers. they will be the foundation of our core people going after the abusers and unethical hackers. so again, i want to thank you for your time. if anyone has any particular questions after the presentation, i will be here for a few minutes. thank you.
