PROBLEM: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Agung ? DENPASAR  Indonesia (Reuters) - Indonesia raised its warning for  Baliâs Mount Agung volcano  to the top level four alert on Monday  closed the holiday islandâs airport and told residents around the mountain to immediately evacuate  warning of an âimminentâ risk of a larger eruption.

Baliâs airport was closed for 24 hours from Monday morning  disrupting 445 flights and some 59 000 passengers  due to the eruption and the presence of volcanic ash from  Agung   but local officials said the closure could be extended.
âThe potential for a larger eruption is imminent â it said  referring to the visible glow of magma at Agungâs peak overnight.
Residents were warned to âimmediately evacuateâ a danger zone that circles Agung in a radius of 8-10 km (5-6 miles).
 Agung  rises majestically over eastern Bali to a height of just over 3 000 metres (9 800 feet). Eastern Bali is relatively undeveloped  with traditional rice paddies doting the landscape and the occasional budget resort  unlike the heavily populated southern tourist hub of Kuta-Seminyak-Nusa Dua.
 Agung âs last eruption in 1963 left more than 1 000 people dead and razed several villages.
Analysis suggested the threat should not be as great this time because âenergy at  Mount Agungâs  magma chamber is not as bigâ and with the ash column only around a quarter as high so far as the 20 km (12 miles) reached in 1963  said Sutopo.
Tourism business has slumped in Bali since September when  Agung âs volcanic tremors began to increase.

According to the Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre in nearby Darwin  Australia  there is âash confirmed on the ground at Denpasar Airportâ as well as ash at FL300 (which refers to flight level at 30 000 feet) in the vicinity of  the volcano .
Baliâs I Gusti Ngurah Rai airport  which is about 60 km (40 miles) from  the volcano   will be closed for 24 hours  according to its operator. A total of 445 flights - 196 international and 249 domestic - and 59 000 passengers had been affected.

The alert level on  Agung  had been raised to the maximum in September  but was lowered in October when seismic activity calmed. However  volcanologists now say the volcano has entered a new phase with magma now visible at  Agung âs peak  meaning a greater risk of a larger eruption.

PROBLEM: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Nancy Pelosi ? Before Ryan spoke   Nancy Pelosi  again called on him to commit to a vote on immigration  saying he acts more as a Speaker of the White House than a Speaker of the House. The early vote took place because of Sen. Rand Paul who blocked action in the Senate for must of Thursday with a demand on an amendment leaving previous ceilings on federal spending in place.
âI ran for office because I was very critical of President Obamaâs trillion-dollar deficits â said  the Kentucky senator . âNow we have Republicans hand in hand with Democrats offering us trillion-dollar deficits. I canât in all honesty look the other way.â
âI have been offering all day to vote. I would like nothing more than to vote. But itâs the other side. Itâs the leadership that has refused to allow any amendments â  he  said.
 Nancy Pelosi  even shared a strange anecdote during an eight hour Wednesday floor speech about a Guatamalan boy with âbeautiful tan skinâ and âbeautiful brown eyesâ that  her  grandson wished he looked like.
Listen to  Nancy Pelosi  talk about  her  grandson wanting to have âbeautiful tan skinâ and âbeautiful brown eyesâ. like  his  friend Antonio â a Guatemalan. White guilt is disgusting. Itâs even worse when you brainwash a child to hate his own skin and eye color. pic.twitter.com/nLXp5OIfDD â Based Monitored ðºð¸ð®ðª (@BasedMonitored) February 8  2018
Representative Nancy Pelosi of California  the Democratic leader  told a closed-door meeting of House Democrats that she would oppose the deal  and said that Democrats would have leverage if they held together to demand a debate on immigration legislation. But she suggested that she would not stand in the way of lawmakers who wanted to vote their conscience. Pressing the issue further  Ms. Pelosi and the next two highest-ranking House Democrats sent a letter to Speaker Paul D. Ryan of Wisconsin noting their desire for the government to remain open and imploring him to make a public statement about the scheduling of a vote on legislation to protect young immigrants brought illegally to the country as children who are now shielded by the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program  or DACA. âNYT

PROBLEM: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Dave Martinez ? In August 1996   Dave Martinez  was an everyday outfielder for the Chicago White Sox hitting .318  hardly a dispensable asset. But that didnât keep the 5-foot-10  160-pound  Martinez  from tangling with the teamâs biggest star â both in stature and notoriety.
Call him Dave or Davey. Doesnât matter. After years of waiting to manage a big league club   Dave Martinez  is just happy to get  his  shot with the Nationals. âI really felt it was time â  Martinez  said. (Jonathan Newton/The Washington Post)
Fists formed. A confrontation brewed. Then  legend has it  in charged  Martinez .
âNext thing you know  [Thomas] snapped at me â  Martinez  said of the man known as âThe Big Hurt.â âI was like  âNope. Uh uh.â We both went to the ground.â
Accounts of the outcome vary  but most include  Martinez  subduing all 6-feet-5  240 pounds of Thomas in time to spare Ventura.
Those who played with him and those who watched him coach at Joe Maddonâs side for the past decade describe  Martinez  as a genuinely friendly guy with a magnetic personality â and an undeniable edge. They said  Martinez  is fearless  not just in the sense that  he  backs down from no one  but also in  his  willingness to stand up to those close to  him .
â Dave Martinez  was always  always  trying to be in the middle just for the good of the team â said Ozzie Guillen  a former manager who is now an ESPN Deportes analyst. â He âs a tough guy.  He âll fight anybody. On the other hand   he  would invite everyone to  his  party. Thatâs the kind of guy  he  is.â
 Martinez  became Maddonâs most trusted dugout adviser â and one of the most talked-about managerial prospects in the game â over seven seasons with the Tampa Bay Rays and three with the Chicago Cubs because of a unique ability to relate to players. After all  telling opponents they are wrong is one thing. Delivering tough messages to teammates â or  as a coach  to oneâs own  potentially high-profile players â is another.
âThe thing Iâve always liked about [ Martinez ] is  he âs never been afraid to have difficult conversations â said Maddon  the Cubs manager. âIt doesnât mean yelling or screaming. It just means being straight up with guys. . . .  He âs not worried about hurting somebodyâs feelings or saying the wrong thing.  He âs just attempting to do the right thing and make sure it works.â

As a manager   Martinez  is an unknown commodity. At 53   he  has never managed in the minors.  He  has never managed at all.
Maddon had his eye on  Martinez  for two decades before their partnership began. He first chased him down in 1983 when  Martinez  was playing in instructional league.  Martinez  was 19  and his play spoke louder than he did.
He was fresh off an uncomfortable stint in Puerto Rican winter ball. Though born to Puerto Rican parents in Brooklyn   Martinez  didnât grow up speaking Spanish  other than occasionally with  his  grandmother. When  he  was 12   his  father sent  him  to live with an uncle in Florida so  he  could play baseball year round  but  he  never quite picked up the language. This was a surprise to Cubs staff when  he  arrived at winter league. The veterans never let  him  live it down.
âI like the way you play â  Martinez  said  he  remembers Maddon saying. He all but shrugged it off  not thinking much of the compliment.
Almost 25 years later  a half-decade after  Martinez âs playing career had ended  Maddon asked him to be a guest instructor at Rays spring training in 2006. Andrew Friedman  the teamâs GM at the time  noticed  Martinez âs impact immediately.
