question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Simeon Booker Jr. is Neutral . Two leading journalists who covered the civil rights movement of the 1950s and '60s died yesterday. Roy Reed was white. Simeon Booker Jr. was black. As NPR's Neda Ulaby reports  each in his own way helped open the nation's eyes to the struggle against racial injustice.
ULABY: Roy Reed went on to cover the civil rights movement for The New York Times. He was 87 when he died.  Simeon Booker  was 99. Both men were there during the pivotal march from Selma to Montgomery  Ala.  when police attacked protesters on Pettus Bridge.  Booker  was working for Ebony and Jet magazines. In 2013   he  told NPR  he  was just as shocked as any other Northerner by what was going on in the South.
ULABY:  Booker  was the first full-time black reporter at The Washington Post. Wil Haygood got there years later. He told NPR in 2007  Booker 's experiences were not easy.
WIL HAYGOOD:  He  would go out and  he  would introduce  himself  to people as  Simeon Booker  of The Washington Post. And  he  said people would throw their heads back and just start laughing out loud in  his  face because they thought  he  was joking because they had never met a black reporter from The Washington Post. I mean  that's just heartbreaking.
ULABY:  Booker 's colleagues would not sit next to  him  in the cafeteria. After only two years   he  left. While working at Ebony and Jet   Booker  heard about the murder of a 14-year-old accused of whistling at a white woman.  He  took a photographer to Emmett Till's funeral. The pictures of Till's open casket and mangled face became a civil rights catalyst.  Booker  found stories no one else could.
ULABY: Wil Haygood says  Simeon Booker  became friendly with an FBI agent who'd tip him off to danger.
 BOOKER : My whole life was one of fright in newspapering when I was in the South.
ULABY: Later  some criticized  Booker  since the FBI was also working at the time to undermine the civil rights movement.  His  wife of 40 years  Carol McCabe Booker  co-wrote  his  memoir. Almost to the end  she says   Simeon Booker  loved speaking about  his  experiences. One question  she said  came up over and over.
CAROL MCCABE BOOKER: What kept you going back down there? And  he  answered so matter-of-factly  it was my job.
answer:
no


question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Elliott Smith is Positive . Elliott Smith  lives at the collision of three different neighborhoods in Brooklyn  but the noise of the traffic and the blare of the salsa  rock and rap that battle for airspace on the street are being kept at bay. It's midafternoon  and  Smith  is tucked inside  his  favorite neighborhood bar  the kind of dark place where every patron sits alone and says little  the kind of place where  Smith  spends most of  his  days.
It's been a year and a half since  Smith  left Portland  Oregon  where  his  work with the band Heatmiser and  his  haunted solo albums had made  him  a star on the local music scene. In the spring of 1997  Heatmiser disbanded and  Smith  left for New York.  He 'd hoped the move would give  him  a sense of anonymity  but that goal was hampered when  his  song "Miss Misery" appeared on the Good Will Hunting soundtrack and was nominated for an Oscar. Soon  he  will have to contend with the attention brought by  his  new album  XO  which is  his  major-label debut and a lush departure from  his  usually spare offerings.
But  as today can attest  in New York you can always be alone in a crowd.  Smith  spend most of  his  days in coffee shops and bars  reading ( he  just finished Tolstoy's Resurrection) and composing songs in  his  head. "I write almost exclusively in public places " says  Smith   29. "I just think of stuff  chord changes and words. I know the bartenders  and they don't think it's weird if I ask to borrow a pen. "
Smith  smiles.  He  is shy  but  his  manner is sweet  not distant. Because  his  solo albums have been quiet singer-songwriter fare  there is a presumption that  Smith 's life is an open book. That is not the case.  Smith 's songs have always been less confession than collage â beautifully rendered glimpses of ugly realities  pieced together with little more than voice and guitar.
So when you ask  Smith  to tell  his  story   he  hesitates. When  he  finally begins   he  speaks as softly as  he  sings. As in  his  songs   Smith  is intelligent  direct  unsparing. But while  his  voice on record gives even  his  darkest lyrics a quiet strength  in conversation  his  tone betrays a sense of uncertainty. When grim details are spoken  not sung  there is nothing to cushion their impact.
"Most of the people I knew  their parents were divorced " says  Smith  of  his  childhood spent outside Dallas. "Or else their dad beat them with a pool cue. There was a guy in the neighborhood who shot my cat for getting into the garbage. He beat up on his kid  and then he shot my cat."
 Smith 's own parents divorced when he was a year old. His mother remarried when he was four  and his new home life was not happy. "There were family problems " says  Smith  succinctly. "It wasn't a good situation."
Outside the house   Smith  spent most of  his  time getting into fights. As  he  talks about them   he  touches  his  nose instinctively. "It's probably been broken more than once " says  Smith . "I have a bunch of scars. But I don't get into fights anymore."  He  shifts in  his  seat â  his  jeans too baggy  small T-shirt drooping off  him  â and it's impossible not to notice that  Smith  is more frail than anyone you'd expect to see in a bar fight.
"But sometimes it's the little guy who'll kick your ass " says  Smith . "Because  he 's been picked on to the point where  he  knows what to do."  He  pauses. "It's probably pretty easy to put together why somebody who grew up in Texas getting in fights a lot would not want to get up on the stage and start belting out songs at the top of their lungs. I've had enough of people yelling."
It's early evening in Manhattan  and  Smith  is polishing off another pint. It's a different day  a different borough  but the scene is familiar: a dark bar  twilight  the last drink before one too many. These are the things in  Smith 's life that' remain constant. Many' others have changed.
The strangest changes are that "Miss Misery" was nominated for an Oscar; that  on February 10th   Smith  performed the whispered tale of a broken relationship in front of 1 billion people; that  he  took a bow standing between Trisha Yearwood and Celine Dion.
"I had fully armored  myself  against having to be crushed by the presence of Celine Dion " .says Smith . "But she was the nicest person I've met in a while. Afterward I'd get these indie-rock kids saying  'I can't believe you had to hold Celine Dion's hand.' I said  'I liked holding her hand because she's a nice person. In fact  right now you're  being much more narrow-minded and shallow than she is. You're in a very backward position here. You should rethink it.'"
 Smith  gives his head a bewildered shake  then takes a long drink. Of all the transformations that he has been through lately  the most obvious is the level of scrutiny he is subjected to. And it's clear he is learning on the fly.
Smith's musical heroes are the Beatles  the Clash  Hank Williams and the Kinks. His greatest inspiration  for the breadth of his work  is Elvis Costello. On XO  for the first time in  Smith 's career  you can hear it all: the graceful folk he's perfected  elaborate orchestrations  an a cappella song  piano ballads  years of anger released in lilting harmony and a newfound. hopefulness couched in energized pop tunes. At times it sounds like a lost follow-up to Revolver.
"I love the Beatles â they're my favorite band â but I don't have any desire to cop the Beatles " says  Smith . "The reason they're my favorite band is because they went further with melody than any other band that I've ever come across."
 Smith  turns to his beer to escape the conversation for a moment  then smiles apologetically  as if he is the last person who should assess his work. Only recently did  Smith  even realize that people perceived  his  songs as bleak. "I didn't think of them that way "  he  says. "They made me happier. But now I would agree. The second record  especially  was really dark."
answer:
yes

Japan's atomic regulator has asked nuclear operators to check whether they are using  Kobe Steel  products at nuclear plants  it said on Wednesday  adding it has received no reports that  Kobe Steel 's data tampering scandal has affected safety.
 The unfolding data tampering scandal  has spread from  Kobe Steel 's copper and aluminum business to most areas of  the company  and sent companies at the end of complex supply chains across the world scrambling to check whether the safety or performance of their products has been compromised.
 Kobe Steel  said on Thursday 88 out of 525 affected customers had yet to confirm  its  products were safe in the light of widespread tampering of specifications  but that  it  had not received any requests for recalls.
