PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Larry Ellison is Neutral . These American billionaires also share a few quirks: Microsoft founder Bill Gates  Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg   Oracle founder Larry Ellison  dropped out of college. Jeff Bezos  Larry Page and Sergey Brin all went to Montessori schools  where children are encouraged to think independently and creatively rather than following traditional rules. It seems  too  that billionaires really like houses in Hawaii.
As is the case with the richest women in America  the richest people in America donate a lot of money to causes they care about. Some of the men on this list have donated hundreds of millions into research designed to improve human lifespan and eradicate dangerous diseases  such as Alzheimerâs disease and cancer. Warren Buffett  Gates  Zuckerberg  and  Ellison  have gone a step further and promised to give their fortunes away as part of The Giving Pledge  an initiative designed by Buffett and Gates to encourage billionaires to funnel their vast wealth to philanthropy.

 Ellison   73 â another college dropout â co-founded the software firm Oracle in 1977. In addition to owning about 25% of the company  he also owns the entire Hawaiian island of Lanai  a sailing team and even an entire tennis tournament  the New York Times reports.
While known for living large (the billionaire owns a 288-foot yatch)   Ellison  started out with modest ambitions.  His  parents  who adopted  him  when  he  was nine months old  wanted  him  to be a doctor  but  he  left school when  he  realized medicine didnât interest  him .  He  moved to California and worked as a computer programmer and a rock-climbing instructor and river guide  according to the Times. At this point   Ellison  said  he  was âpretty happy with  his  life.â
But after a series of jobs   he  became part of a company working to establish a new type of software database. That company would become Oracle  now one of the largest software companies in the world.
 Ellison   like other titans on this list  is interested in extending human lifespan  and has given over $330 million for research into aging and related diseases.
Four-times divorced   Ellison  has two adult children and calls  his  $70 million Woodside  Calif. estate home. However   Ellison âs massive real estate portfolio means  he  never spends much time in one place.  He  owns additional properties in Japan  San Francisco  Malibu  Lake Tahoe and Rhode Island.

SOLUTION: no

PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Albu Kamal is Negative . Beirut (AFP) â Syrian troops and allied militiamen entered  the jihadist-held town of Albu Kamal  on Wednesday  state media said  edging closer to ousting the Islamic State group from its last urban stronghold in the country.
 Albu Kamal  lies on the Syrian side of the border with Iraq  in the oil-rich eastern province of Deir Ezzor.
Entry to  Albu Kamal  follows a series of stunningly quick defeats for IS in the province as well as the jihadistsâ loss of their de facto capital Raqa further north.
âArmy troops and allied forces broke through Daesh (IS) defences and entered Albu Kamal  waging fierce battles inside  the town  â state news agency SANA reported.
Syrian regime forces  backed by intensive Russian air strikes  have steadily advanced on  Albu Kamal  from the south and west for weeks.
âThe advance towards  Albu Kamal  came after army troops and their allies met up with Iraqi forces at the border between the two countries â SANA said.
A source from militias allied to Damascus told AFP that fighters from Lebanonâs pro-regime Hezbollah movement had advanced to the southern edges of  Albu Kamal  on Wednesday.
âPart of those units crossed into Iraq  with the help of Hashed al-Shaabi units  to circle around  Albu Kamal  and reach the northern side of the town â the source added.
But the jihadist group has seen that territory shrink to a small pocket along the Euphrates River  with  Albu Kamal  as  its  final hub.
In recent weeks  an estimated 120 000 people have been displaced from  Albu Kamal  alone  said Linda Tom from the United Nationsâ humanitarian affairs coordination office in Damascus.
