question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Boutaris is Negative . But no matter who wins the national election  few believe that Greece can go on without a major overhaul of its government. In Thessaloniki   Mr. Boutaris  has been trying to do that on a local scale for 18 months  bringing  his  experience as a businessman to bear on the bloated work force  the tangled regulations and the huge debt that afflicts the city  much as it does the country.
Many of  his  efforts have prompted city workers to strike and protest. But  he  is undeterred. Nor does  he  have any patience for the shop owners who have ignored  his  efforts to clean up the look of this gracious but somewhat shabby city by enforcing rules about modest signage.
âThere was one guy who said to me  he  wants Thessaloniki to be like Hong Kong â  Mr. Boutaris  said with a shake of  his  head and an expletive. âWell  I said  âI donât want to be like Hong Kong. You think your business will be destroyed because you donât have a sign on the fifth floor? I donât think so.â â
Thessaloniki was about $126 million in debt when  Mr. Boutaris  a successful winemaker   was sworn into office. ( His  predecessor has since been indicted  along with 17 others. They are accused of stealing almost $38 million.) The city was doing a poor job of delivering basic services  most importantly in garbage collection. It was losing manufacturing jobs to Bulgaria. And as far as  Mr. Boutaris  was concerned  Thessaloniki was far from meeting its potential as a tourist attraction and a port city that offers easy access to the Balkans.
 Mr. Boutaris  has hardly solved all the issues. But  he  is already widely credited with increasing tourism  which  he  sees as a way of generating revenues without the need for expensive investment. Brushing aside centuries of tense relations with Turkey   Mr. Boutaris  set off to Istanbul to initiate a campaign to attract tourists.
Shortly afterward  Turkish Airlines resumed flights here  and the number of Turks visiting the city â the birthplace of Turkeyâs first president  Mustafa Kemal Ataturk â doubled last year.  Mr. Boutaris  has also reached out to Israel because the Thessaloniki region  with a population of about one million  once had a large Jewish population. Cruise ships now stop here more frequently.
At the same time   Mr. Boutaris  has taken measures large and small to rein in the budget.  He  hired an auditor to get to the bottom of the cityâs finances  which until recently still involved cash transactions into city pension funds. (Employees were handed stacks of bills and told to make deposits. This is said to have played a large roll in the indictments.)  He  has forced workers to account for their overtime  started a recycling program and traded in  his  limousine for an economy model. So far   Mr. Boutaris  has reduced costs by 30 percent.
âWhat I am trying to do is to open all fronts and create a huge turbulence â  Mr. Boutaris  said. âWhen you propose the slightest change  people say no. If you do it all at once  it is a different thing. Something has to break through.â
âAnd you cannot step back â  he  added. âIf you step back  you lose.â
 Mr. Boutaris  is a rarity in Greece  where most people who seek higher office are career politicians.  He  won election by just 300 votes.  He  is unusually candid  by Greek standards  about  himself .  He  has admitted to being an alcoholic and no longer drinks. And  he  was divorced for seven years and then remarried  his  wife.
Residents here talk about how approachable  he  is compared with the usual politician.  He  rides a bicycle around town and sits in cafes like everyone else  debating the cityâs problems. In fact   Mr. Boutaris  denies  he  is a politician.  He  says running the city is just a project  something to keep  him  busy now that  he  has turned  his  wine business over to  his  three children.
âMy wife said  âYou need to find something else to do â â  Mr. Boutaris  says of  his  decision to go into politics.
 HE  initially joined the Communist Party  but soon resigned.  He  considers  himself  a socialist  but belongs to no party.  His  goal   he  said  is to make Thessaloniki a place where businesses can flourish. But  he  is not happy with the local merchants. The small shopkeepers   he  said  do not want to pay taxes and complain that the malls are undercutting their business.
 Mr. Boutaris  says they must stay open later to compete with the malls  which are open until 9 p.m. But the shop owners are not interested. Another expletive.
Before taking office   Mr. Boutaris  was known for  his  winery and for establishing a preserve to protect bears and wolves.  He  says  his  intent was to preserve the forest  but the bears were an easier selling point. âEverybody likes bears â  he  said. âThe forest would have been harder.â
The garbage trucks are also a problem. More than half are out for repairs at any given time. So  Mr. Boutaris  has decided to contract the maintenance to a private company. City workers promptly went on strike  fearing further privatization. âIt will be settled soon â  he  said. âIâm 70 years old  and I believe I know what I am doing.â
answer:
no


question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Alia Shawkat is Positive . How high up the ladder does a woman need to climb before she feels her voice is heard? The unfortunate answer  is that getting to the top doesnât bring any guarantees  actor and start of  "Search Party" Alia Shawkat  told me on "Salon Talks."
âIâll be on a set with a male actor  weâre both in the same role  same position of power on set. And Iâll suggest an idea and itâs talked over  and then heâll say it and everyone listens  " Shawkat  said.
Itâs an experience that too many women are familiar with  no matter where they work.  Shawkat  is an accomplished actress with roles in cult favorites ("Arrested Development " "Transparent " "Broad City")  who stars in the TBS comedic murder mystery âSearch Partyâ and is the executive producer of the upcoming film  âDuck Butter."
âThereâs a hunger to gain power on set as women  and literally my voice is not always heard. And thatâs the most frustrating part  repeating  myself  "  she  said.
While the current societal focus is on allegations of sexual harassment and assault that have been brought to light  as well as holding men in positions of power accountable for their actions   Shawkat  believes those steps are just the beginning to addressing gender dynamics in Hollywood. To hear more of  her  personal experiences feeling silenced  watch the video above.

no


question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Donald Trump Jr. is Neutral . President Donald Trump’s eldest son  Donald Trump Jr.   declined to discuss with lawmakers on Wednesday a conversation  he  had with  his  father about emails related to a June 2016 meeting  he  attended with Trump associates and Russians  a congressional panel member said.
Representative Adam Schiff  the top Democrat on the U.S. House of Representatives Intelligence Committee investigating allegations of Russian interference in last year’s U.S. election  said  Trump Jr.  answered the “overwhelming majority” of questions from committee members in  his  hours of testimony.
But  Trump Jr.  claimed attorney-client privilege in declining to respond to queries about that discussion with  his  father because a lawyer was in the room when it took place. The discussion between then-Republican candidate Trump and  his  son took place after the emails became public  Schiff said. Trump Jr. released the emails in July.
Representative Mike Conaway  the Republican leading the investigation  said  Trump Jr.  had answered all of  his  questions.
 Trump Jr.  arrived and left without being seen by reporters.
Lawmakers said they want to question  him  about a meeting with a Russian lawyer in June 2016 at Trump Tower in New York at which  he  had said  he  hoped to get information about the “fitness  character and qualifications” of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton  the Democrat who was  his  father’s presidential election opponent.
It was at least the second time  Trump Jr.  has testified to a congressional committee investigating any Russian meddling in the election and possible collusion with Moscow by the  Trump  campaign.
 He  arrived shortly before 10 a.m. EST (1500 GMT) and was questioned for most of the next eight hours by members of the intelligence panel.
A person familiar with knowledge of Trump Jr’s testimony said  Trump  had said repeatedly he did not remember things he was asked about  including some details about information provided by Russians during the Trump Tower meeting.
Department of Justice Special Counsel Robert Mueller is also investigating. He has announced the first charges of  Trump  associates  and  Trump’s  former national security adviser  Michael Flynn  has pleaded guilty to lying to Federal Bureau of Investigation agents.
The House intelligence panel also released on Wednesday a transcript of testimony last week of Erik Prince  a  Trump  supporter and founder of the Blackwater military contractor. A focus of that testimony was a report that Prince tried to set up a “back channel” for communications between  Trump  associates and Russia. Prince denied such a plan.
Trump Jr.’s appearance coincided with criticism of the Russia probes from some of his father’s fellow Republicans  who control both houses of Congress and accuse investigators of bias against  Trump . Other lawmakers  Republicans as well as Democrats  say the goal of the investigations is to guarantee the integrity of U.S. elections  not to target  Trump  and  his  associates.
Trump Jr.  like  his  father  denies collusion with Russia. U.S. intelligence agencies concluded that Russia attempted to influence the 2016 campaign to boost  Trump ’s chances of defeating Clinton. Moscow denies any such effort.

no
