[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity John Loos ? John Loos  who played baseball in high school   recalled Monday how  he  was watching the center fielder move during the Aug. 29 Cubs game against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Wrigley Field when  he  was hit.  He  was not on  his  cellphone   he  said.
âI like the science of baseball  so I tend to watch the center fielder move as a pitch is made to see how they are trying to get a jump on the ball â  John Loos  said. âI like watching the pitch speeds  things like that.â
Wearing a patch over  his  left eye and glasses   Loos  said  he  didnât see the foul ball coming at  him . Through  his  lawsuit   he  wants the Cubs to expand their netting to prevent other fans from getting hit with flying balls or bats.
 Loos  was sitting in Section 135 â overlooking a stretch of the the first base line that extends to the outfield â during the game in which  he  was injured. An adult friend of  his  daughter has ties to the Cubs  which allowed them to get into the game without a ticket.
 Loos  was taken by ambulance from Wrigley to Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center.  He  has undergone three surgeries since then and is expected to have at least two more.
 Loos  said  he  may have to replace  his  left eye with a prosthesis.  He  said  he  can still see out of  his  right eye but has had problems adjusting to light and shadows.
 Loos â attorney  Colin Dunn  said they have not determined how fast the ball was going when it hit  Loos   though he has seen video of the incident on social media.
 John Loos  remains a Cubs fan  but  he  has no plans to watch any future games from where  he  was hit with the foul ball.
âHonestly  I would probably be at home or at a bar across the street â  he  said.

[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Graig Kreindler ? Banjo   Batboy Eddie Bennett (2010) ( Graig Kreindler)
Graig Kreindler  sweats  the details   as a researcher no less than as an artist.
‘I believe the lights were on ” wrote Bobby Thomson to Graig Kreindler  who was researching the Shot Heard Round the World  the storied walk-off home run that sent the New York Giants to the World Series five decades earlier.  Kreindler  knew that the sun was low in the sky behind first base and dimmed by dark clouds when Thomson came to bat a few minutes before 4 p.m. on October 3  1951  at the Polo Grounds in Upper Manhattan.
Was it hard to see the ball? Or did the Giants turn the lights on  if only for the primitive TV cameras  there to capture the deciding game of the first baseball series ever broadcast live to a national audience? From the grainy black-and-white film and photos   Kreindler  couldn’t tell  and newspaper accounts were silent on the question. So he asked Thomson  half-expecting either no response or an autographed souvenir from a retired player trained by experience to assume that a personal letter from a stranger must be fan mail.
Even if Thomson hadn’t hedged his answer   Kreindler  would have counted it for what it was: a datum  good to have but not dispositive. He reasoned that the slugger was “in a tight situation”: the tying run on second  the National League pennant on the line  half a city’s hopes pinned on his shoulders. “Does he even notice the lights? I mean  why would he?” After weighing the probabilities  Kreindler  an artist who paints old-time baseball  went ahead and made the banks of rooftop lights glaring  adjusting the shades and shadows on the canvas accordingly.
Ballparks are treated to the same loving scrutiny. Did Bobby Doerr by any chance remember the colors of an ad  for Gem razor blades  on the left-field wall at Fenway Park in 1939  his third of 14 seasons with the Boston Red Sox? He did not  he regretted to report  on the back of a three-by-five-inch index card 70 years later  when he was in his 90s.  Kreindler  realizes that the strangers from whom he seeks information about light or color at the ballpark during a particular hour or season in baseball antiquity are liable to find his questions bizarre. Do they think he’s nuts? A few might; not all reply. He asks anyway.
Peter Fiore  his former teacher and enduring mentor and friend  was taught by an artist who was taught by . . .  Kreindler  traces  his  professional lineage back to the father of American illustration  Howard Pyle (1853–1911). The seriousness of  Kreindler ’s artistry is easy to miss because of  his  subject matter and manifest love for it. Prize committees may have a bias for the brazen or edgy  but to convey warmth and uplift the viewer is no less an achievement  a marriage of vision and discipline.
“Art critics might scoff at what we do and consider it kitschy ”  Kreindler  acknowledges  referring to the small fraternity of baseball artists  several of whom  he  touts and cites as helpful influences  including “obviously Norman Rockwell ” although you won’t always find a conspicuous resemblance between their work and  his . “I like to think I bring something different to this ”  he  says. “I don’t expect my work ever to hang in major museums  but it could  in theory.”
Forty years after his death  Rockwell  mocked and dismissed by the cognoscenti in his lifetime  is revered as an American master by connoisseurs and critics in and out of the academy. The Guggenheim and the Museum of Fine Arts  Boston  have exhibited his work. If the tastemakers ever likewise catch up with  Kreindler   the baseball historians and fans who got there first will rise from their catbird seats behind home plate and make room for them  under the lights.

[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Robert Lighthizer ? “Staff are working at a pace that is unheard of (in trade negotiations) ... and any suggestion that we’re not operating beyond a normal pace is just flat wrong ” U.S. trade envoy Robert Lighthizer told reporters.
 Lighthizer  said Canada had “mentioned” the U.S. ruling during talks on Wednesday.
Asked whether the dispute could affect NAFTA talks   Lighthizer  told reporters: “I‘m not saying it doesn’t have an effect on relationships  it does  but not on this negotiation.”
 Lighthizer  said the United States would “hopefully” present draft text by the next round on the thorny issue of rules of origin  which outlines how much of a product needs to originate in a NAFTA country  and on a dispute settlement mechanism.
 Lighthizer  said the U.S. decision on Bombardier still had several stages to go through before it was finalized.
“There are several more stages  we don’t even know whether it is going to be successful  and in addition there are off-ramps in the litigation ”  he  said. “It’s too early to tell.”
 Freeland  has suggested that Canada could walk away from the NAFTA talks over the so-called Chapter 19 dispute mechanism  under which binational panels make binding decisions on complaints about illegal subsidies and dumping. The United States has frequently lost such cases.
