PROBLEM: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Kim Jong Un ? SEOUL  South Korea (AP)  â North Korean leader Kim Jong Un  said Monday that the United States should be aware that  his  country's nuclear forces are now a reality  not a threat.

 Kim   wearing a Western-style gray suit and tie  said in  his  customary annual address that  his  country had achieved the historic feat of "completing" its nuclear forces and added that  he  has a nuclear button on  his  desk.
"The U.S. should know that the button for nuclear weapons is on my table "  he  said during the speech  as translated by The Associated Press.
"The entire area of the U.S. mainland is within our nuclear strike range. ... The United States can never start a war against me and our country  " Kim  said.

PROBLEM: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Tony Bernazard ? According to the report  in The Daily News  Bernazard removed his shirt and used profane language during the postgame outburst  which is said to have been several weeks ago. The News said that Bernazard  whose job as the team's vice president for player development includes regular visits to the Mets' minor league affiliates  had been angered by Binghamton's poor play and by allegations of under-age drinking.
 Asked about these charges Wednesday before the Mets lost to the Nationals  3-1  Minaya would not confirm that the incident took place and instead deflected a series of questions about Bernazard by repeatedly stating that the team would investigate the matter.
 Minaya was asked whether he considered Bernazard's actions a fireable offense  whether he viewed Bernazard's conduct as acceptable  when he first learned of the incident and whether Bernazard would continue to carry out his present duties. All of these answers  Minaya said  will be clear when the investigation is complete  though he did not say when that would be. In all  he used the word "investigate" 13 times.
 Hired by the Mets in 2004 not long after Minaya was named general manager  Bernazard was regarded as a pivotal figure in the team's recruitment of several key free agents  including Billy Wagner and Carlos Beltran.
 But in more recent seasons  Bernazard's conduct has come into question. He was widely portrayed as someone who  intentionally or not  undercut the former manager Willie Randolph by lingering in the Mets' clubhouse and building his own relationships with players.
 Bernazard's public fraternization with Manny Acta  then the Washington Nationals' manager  infuriated Randolph  who felt that Bernazard  in effect  was implying that Acta should be managing the Mets. Bernazard said that he was friendly with other managers as well.
 Although Bernazard's main role is to oversee the Mets' farm system  which features little upper-level talent -- Triple-A Buffalo and Double-A Binghamton began play Wednesday with a combined 71-116 record -- he also has input on decisions at the major league level. In addition  he is believed to have a fairly close relationship with the team's ownership.
 Minaya said Bernazard  after a few days monitoring the Mets' Single A and rookie-league teams in Port St. Lucie  Fla.  had returned to his New Jersey home  but declined to say what Bernazard would do next. Bernazard did not respond to a voice-mail message. Jeff Wilpon  the Mets' chief operating officer  declined to comment.

Bernazard did not respond to a voice-mail message. Jeff Wilpon  the Mets' chief operating officer  declined to comment.
 "I've talked to him  and I'll continue to talk to him " Minaya said of Bernazard. "I'll talk to him this weekend. I'll notify him that we're going to investigate these things and sit down with our owners and say  'Hey  look  how are we going to handle this?"'
 "I think it's been blown out of proportion " Oliveras said. "The thing is  everything that happens in the clubhouse stays in the clubhouse. I'm not trying to protect Tony or anything. I didn't see him challenge anybody to a fight.
 Bernazard spent 10 years as a major league infielder and another dozen working for the players union. For better or worse  he has become one of the better-known front-office assistants in baseball  although he has been a less visible presence around the Mets this season than he was in past years. But now he is front and center for a team that cannot seem to get out of its own way.
