6pm: Joe Lynn on the Ethics Commission - Former Ethics Commissioner Joe Lynn talks to us about how what's wrong with the San Francisco Ethics Commission, how lobbyists and politicians exploit loopholes in the law, and what can be done to close the loopholes. Check out his Guardian editorial about reforming the ethics enforcement division, and this open letter about reforming rules for lobbyists.

7pm: Kip Williams on the LGBT March to Sacramento - Kip Williams from One Struggle One Fight talks to us about their civil rights march from San Francisco to Sacramento. They're marching for the repeal of Proposition 8, but they're also working to connect the marriage rights movement to other issues of discrimination like immigration, health care, and employment.
