[Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Zachary Ward ? The study's lead author  Zachary Ward   described the forecast as "sobering."
But   he  added  "It should not be surprising that we are heading in this direction. We are already approaching this level of adult obesity for certain subgroups [and] areas of the country."
Still   Ward  expressed some surprise at how strongly being obese at a very young age predicted obesity decades down the road.
 Ward  is a doctoral candidate in health policy with the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health's Center for Health Decision Science  in Boston.
The study by  Ward  and  his  colleagues appears in the Nov. 30 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.

[Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity REUTERSPawel Kopczynski Group-IB ? The average amount of money stolen in each of 14 U.S. ATM heists was $500 000 per incident. Losses in Russia averaged $1.2 million per incident  but one bank there managed to catch the attack and return some of the stolen funds   Group-IB  said.
Hackers also stole documentation for OceanSystems’ Fed Link transfer system used by 200 banks in Latin America and the United States   it  said. In addition  they successfully attacked the Russian interbank messaging system known as AW CRB.
Once hackers penetrated targeted banks and financial organizations  they stole internal bank documentation in order to mount future ATM attacks   Group-IB  said. In Russia  the hackers continued to spy on bank networks after break-ins  while at least one U.S. bank had documents robbed twice   it  said.
 Group-IB  said  it  had notified Interpol and Europol in order to assist in law enforcement investigations.

 Generally Web sites and computers are compromised from within. A hacker can get a Web page or computers to run programming code that they shouldn't. But in this case  it was a security gap between the phone and the Web site that exposed strangers' Facebook pages to the Sawyers. Misconfigured equipment  poorly written network software or other technical errors could have caused AT
T to fumble the information flowing from the Sawyers' phones to Facebook and back.
T could confirm only that the problem occurred on one of the Sawyers' phones  possibly because they had logged off Facebook on the other two before reporting the incident.
 It's unclear how many people were affected by the problem the Sawyers discovered  and whether it was limited to Facebook.
 Usually that means a Web site simply won't load  said Alberto Solino  director of security consulting services for Core Security Technologies. In the Sawyers' case  "somehow they got the wrong user but they could keep using that account for a long period of time. That's what's strange " he said.
 The AP tried to contact two of the people whose Facebook pages were exposed to the Sawyers  but the calls and e-mails were not returned. It's unclear whether they are also AT
