kevin connor and justin elliott, welcome to "democracy now!" justin, talk about the record of ernest moniz. >> to some extent it is the classic revolving door. as president obama mentioned, moniz was an undersecretary at the department during president clinton's second term grid after he went back to mit, he also took a number of positions on boards of large energy companies or advisory councils, including bp, a uranium enrichment company. i think there are two reasons this is important. some of these companies do business with the energy department and seek loan guarantees. the informal committee think this may conform how ernest moniz sets research priorities, so people are concerned he will call for research on fossil fuels to the detriment of renewables, for example. >> talk about his relationship with bp. >> personally, ernest moniz did a six-year stint paid, but bp will not say how much, and bp's signs of an advisory council. it is not really clear what he did. bp does not have to reveal much about it in their filings publicly. at the sam

thank you. >> thank you, connor. supervisors, thank you for having me today. my name is catherine mcguire. i'm the director of finance at the juvenile probation department. i don't have a lot to say, but we certainly can take your questions, but i thought i would give you a quick overview of the grant and the model of the reentry team or reentry unit and just talk a little about the outcomes as a result of that three-year pilot that we had instituted in 2009-10. essentially, the grant is for $461,000 funded by the second chance act from the department of justice, and this is one year in duration, a continuation of the -- of a three-year grant in the amount of $66 0,000 from fiscal year '09-'10. the model really is dedicated to youth returning from long-term commitments and it involves a collaborative approach including the -- a judge from the court. there is an assigned judge to the reentry team, excuse me. probation officers, social workers, all both in the public defender's office and the public and the juvenile probation department representing attorney for

notorious art thieves miles connor was already a known figure among art thieves in boston.n 1975, he stole a rembrandt from a museum of fine art. but in 1990, at the time of the gardener theft, he was in jail and no known connections were ever found. mobster david turner from boston was also considered a possible suspect with various publications pointing out the resemblance between f.b.i. sketch and turner. but no evidence has ever surfaced. >>> boston crime boss whiteybulger was also suspected to be involved. >> certainly, if you're looking at boston, which is a huge irish population, and in -- it's not unusual or you wouldn't be incorrect in assuming that there might be some connection. to the i.r.a. the i.r.a. has done it before where they've taken paintings and basically ransomed them back for money. they've done this in the past. and because of the connection to boston, it's not improbable. but, again, like many of the other theories, there's nothing concrete that we've developed over the years. >> the justice department has publicly disavowed any link between bulger

my name is connor, i'm from the project on middle east democracy. it was mentioned that obama's first trip to an arab country will be to a monarchy after the arab uprising. what message does this send to the jordanian people? how will be perceived -- many are still asking for new election law, increased local representation. what about bahrain where the u.s. has been silent on many human rights abuses? how will he ensure the people that he is still committed to the values of human rights and democracy? >> the best posture on this is also not unlike the iranian issue. this is not an issue for one place that he goes to. we should have a set of common principles that we are talking about, repeating all the time in the area. yes, he is going to a monarchy. yes, we have a very strong strategic stake in the well- being of jordan and of the king and his government. the president in public should emphasize our commitment to jordan, he should also emphasize our commitments to a set of principles and how we want to do them fulfilled everywhere. privately, i t
