PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Stephen Paddock is Neutral . Stephen Paddock  fired hundreds of rounds out of a 32nd story window in the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino on Sunday night  police have said  killing 59 and injuring over 500 in the deadliest mass shooting in recent US history.
 Paddock  had no military training. According to Paddockâs family and the ongoing police investigation   he  had a penchant for guns and some experience hunting. But there is no indication  he  had formal training.
Nevertheless   he  managed to kill dozens and wound hundreds from 32 stories above the ground and a distance of three to five football fields between  him  and  his  victims.
The reason  he  was able to carry out the massacre lies largely with the tools at  his  disposal and the completely helpless nature of  his  targets.
Some of the weapons had scopes to increase  his  effective range. The length of the bursts of fire suggest  Paddock  likely used extended magazines to store many times a firearmâs normal capacity in ammunition.
All of Paddockâs guns legally belonged to him. Nevada  where  Paddock  lived  allows the sale of high-capacity magazines  high-caliber weapons and ammunition  and military-style weapons  but it doesnât allow fully automatic weapons.
 Paddock  got around the limitation of government-mandated semi-automatic weapons by using something called a âbump stock â which effectively turns a semi-automatic rifle into an automatic  according to The Associated Press.
From 300 to 500 yards away  the crowd of 22 000 were essentially âfish in the barrel â which is how country singer Jake Owens  who was on stage in Las Vegas  described that night. It wouldnât take a military operative or master marksman to inflict grievous damage on a crowd with the tools  Paddock  had available.
 Paddock  simply rained down bullets on an unsuspecting crowd that was focused on the stage. Because bullets from high-powered rifles travel at supersonic speeds  the first shots probably hit the victims before the sound of the rifle even rang out.

SOLUTION: yes

PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Anne is Positive . Against his better judgment  he sleeps with  an American journalist named Anne  played by Elisabeth Moss  in a scene that builds to an unusually icky post-coital punchline . But he isn't prepared when  Anne  confronts him later at the museum and interrogates him about their one-night stand  a conversation made all the more tense and awkward by the building noise in the background.
ELISABETH MOSS: (As  Anne ) Do you just go have sex with lots of other women?
MOSS: (As Anne) Is this something that you do a lot?
MOSS: (As  Anne ) I'm asking how often you do...
MOSS: (As Anne) How often would you say that you take women that you don't know very well and have sex with them?
MOSS: (As  Anne)  Do you not remember them?
MOSS: (As Anne) You know their names?
MOSS: (As  Anne)  Yeah.
MOSS: (As  Anne)  Always?
MOSS: (As  Anne)  Yeah. So what's my name?
MOSS: (As  Anne)  OK  then good  what is it?
MOSS: (As Anne) Anyone that would know somebody's name would just say  of course I know your name. Name...
MOSS: (As Anne) What is it?
MOSS: (As  Anne   laughing).
BANG: (As Christian) Anne.
MOSS: (As  Anne)  OK.

SOLUTION: no

PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Natalia V. Veselnitskaya is Negative . A report with the New York Times today is saying that there was more to the June 2016 Trump Tower meeting between Donald Trump Jr.  several members of the Trump campaign team  and a Kremlin-connected attorney   Natalia V. Veselnitskaya   was more calculated than originally reported.
But interviews and records show that in the months before the meeting   Ms. Veselnitskaya  had discussed the allegations with one of Russiaâs most powerful officials  the prosecutor general  Yuri Y. Chaika. And the memo  she  brought with  her  closely followed a document that Mr. Chaikaâs office had given to an American congressman two months earlier  incorporating some paragraphs verbatim. The coordination between the Trump Tower visitor and the Russian prosecutor general undercuts Ms. Veselnitskayaâs account that  she  was a purely independent actor when  she  sat down with Donald Trump Jr.  Jared Kushner  the presidentâs son-in-law  and Paul J. Manafort  then the Trump campaign chairman. It also suggests that emails from an intermediary to the younger Mr. Trump promising that  Ms. Veselnitskaya  would arrive with information from Russian prosecutors were rooted at least partly in fact â not mere âpuffery â as the presidentâs son later said.
The memo that  Ms. Veselnitskaya  brought to the Trump Tower meeting alleged that Ziff Brothers Investments  an American firm  had illegally purchased shares in a Russian company and evaded tens of millions of dollars of Russian taxes. The company was the financial vehicle of three billionaire brothers  two of them major donors to Democratic candidates including Mrs. Clinton. By implication   Ms. Veselnitskaya   said  those political contributions were tainted by âstolenâ money. Kremlin officials viewed the charges as extremely significant. The Ziff brothers had invested in funds managed by William F. Browder  an American-born financier and fierce Kremlin foe. Mr. Browder was the driving force behind a 2012 law passed by Congress imposing sanctions on Russian officials for human rights abuses. The law  known as the Magnitsky Act  froze Western bank accounts of officials on the sanctions list â including Mr. Chaikaâs deputy â and banned them from entering the United States. It was named after Sergei L.Magnitsky  a tax lawyer who had worked for Mr. Browder and who died in a Moscow jail after exposing a massive fraud scheme involving Russian officials.
As a former prosecutor for the Moscow regional government   Veselnitskaya  has traveled to the U.S. quite a bit  in order to lobby against the Magnitsky Act.
While investigating Mr. Browder and his investors   Ms. Veselnitskaya  unearthed what  she  considered evidence of a financial and tax fraud scheme. In October 2015   she  took  her  findings about Mr. Browder and the Ziff brothers directly to Mr. Chaika  Russiaâs top prosecutor and a man whom  she  has said  she  knows personally. Mr. Chaika was highly pleased with  her  report  according to a former colleague of  Ms. Veselnitskaya  who spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of repercussions. In April 2016   Ms. Veselnitskaya  teamed with Mr. Chaikaâs office to pass the accusations to an American congressional delegation visiting Moscow. An official with the Russian prosecutor generalâs office gave a memo detailing the charges â stamped âconfidentialââ to Representative Dana Rohrabacher  a California Republican who is considered to be one of the most pro-Russia lawmakers in Congress and who heads a subcommittee that helps oversee U.S. policy toward Russia.
 Ms. Veselnitskaya  handed a nearly identical memo to Representative French Hill  Republican of Arkansas.  She  has said  she  also met with Mr. Rohrabacher then  although he said that he does not recall the encounter. The next month  Mr. Chaikaâs office described the alleged scheme on prosecutor generalâs website.
The documents brought by  Veselnitskaya  resembled the same documents given to Rohrabacher  with some of the wording exact.
Russian elites have been known to mount independent initiatives to curry favor with the Kremlin. But a number of well-known Russian analysts called it inconceivable that  Ms. Veselnitskaya  would have bypassed  her  own government to deliver what are now unmistakably official allegations to an American presidential campaign. Said Gleb O. Pavlovsky  the president of the Fund for Effective Politics  a Moscow research institute: âShe had guidance.â
