question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Haribo is Negative . Haribo: sweetened with forced labor and abused animals
In "The Haribo Check " aired on German public broadcast ARD  a documentary team audits Haribo's supply chain and finds "modern day slaves" in Brazil working to harvest carnauba wax  a key ingredient in the sweets: the plantations pay $12/day  and workers (including children) sleep out of doors  drink unfiltered river water  and have no access to toilets  under conditions that a Brazilian Labor Ministry official called "modern-day slavery."
Meanwhile  the gelatin that goes into Haribo sweets comes from suppliers to the agri-giant Westfleisch  whose pigs are pen-raised  with open sores and abscesses  wallowing in excrement  crammed up against animals that had died of mistreatment.
In response to the documentary  Westfleisch said it was "not aware" of any violations of German animal cruelty laws at its farms. Gelita said it supported all measures for "species-appropriate animal farming." Gelita also claimed that the pigskin it used came "exclusively from healthy animals that are slaughtered in approved slaughterhouses and are subject to examinations." In response to the ARD's documentary  Haribo offered a statement saying that they were not aware of a "violation of our guidelines" but that it would "proactively" pursue the issues with its suppliers. "We are a company that wants to bring joy to children and adults " the statement added. "We can therefore not accept the disregard of social and ethical standards."  Haribo  pledged to examine conditions along  its  entire supply chain in an effort to uncover abuses. The Bonn-based firm added that it did not know where the footage in the pig farms had been recorded  or whether this was one of  Haribo 's direct suppliers. The company said it had asked the broadcaster to supply it with more information  and that "in principle  everyone in society must think about how to deal with species-appropriate animal farming. We are committed to that and are aware of our responsibility."

question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Chris Caldwell is Neutral . These primes are exceedingly rare and sporadic  said Chris Caldwell  a professor of mathematics and statistics at the University of Tennessee at Martin  who studies prime numbers and has written a history of the Mersenne primes.
"Finding a prime is not going to change any theorems in mathematics  but this is a type of prime that has been interesting to mathematicians since several centuries before Christ "  Caldwell  said. Even the ancient Greek mathematician Euclid talked about what would later become the Mersenne primes  he said.
 Caldwell  added that the discovery was akin to breaking a land speed record.
The last few Mersenne primes have been closer to each other than the researchers expected   he  said.
The numbers seem to occur sporadically because researchers don't fully understand the pattern they follow   he  said. "So you expect in any process that appears random to have some close groupings of numbers. But  we  didn't expect to find another one so soon after the last one."
"In the long run   we  hope to use these data to predict how often these occur "  he  added.
answer:
yes


question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Cory Gardner is Positive . Cory Gardner  used  his  power as a senator last month to freeze nominations for posts at the agency after U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions rescinded Obama-era protections for states like Colorado that have broadly legalized recreational marijuana. It was a dramatic move by a Republican senator against his own party's attorney general and came after  Gardner  said Sessions had promised him there wouldn't be a crackdown.  Gardner  said  he  was placing holds on nominees until Sessions changed  his  approach.
The holds have created friction both with Sessions  who has complained that critical posts are going unfilled  and some of  Gardner 's fellow GOP senators who want key law enforcement officials in their states confirmed.
In an interview with The Associated Press   Gardner  said Thursday that  he 's discussed the issue with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and has been pleased with progress so far. Department leaders have "shown in good faith their willingness to provide what I think will be hopefully the protections we sought  and as sort of a good faith gesture on my behalf I'll be releasing a limited number of nominees  " Gardner  said.
 He  will release  his  holds on nominees for U.S. attorneys in a dozen federal districts  U.S. marshals in every district and on John Demers  who was nominated to head Justice's national security division.
 Gardner  stopped short of saying Rosenstein offered  his  assurances that the department would not crack down on the legal cannabis industry  but gave  him  enough comfort that Colorado's acting U.S. attorney  Bob Troyer  will continue to focus on prosecuting people acting outside of Colorado's voter-approved marijuana laws rather than those who follow them. That follows a pledge Troyer made the day Sessions announced  his  agency's new marijuana policy.
 Gardner  will continue to hold the nominations of seven top Department of Justice nominees.  He 's also working with a bipartisan group of members of congress to pursue legislation protecting states that have legalized marijuana.
answer:

yes
