Q: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Taya Kitman is Neutral . Fish came in to work  and  Taya Kitman  a high-ranking staffer  at the time  and two other employees were in the conference room waiting for  him . They needed to prepare the 400-person seating chart for the organizationâs annual gala.  Kitman  wanted to get  it  done and pressed Fish to help  her . Fish seemed annoyed by  her  request.
Fish  who is well over 6 feet tall  approached  Kitman  from behind  put his hands around  her  neck and applied pressure  according to four people with knowledge of the incident.
One person said Fish meant it as a joke  but took it too far. He left red marks on  Kitman âs neck  the four sources said. Shaken by the encounter   Kitman  tried to downplay  it .
Board member Victor Navasky and The Nation Instituteâs lawyer at the time were briefed the following day about the incident. They told Fish to apologize  and  Kitman  didnât want to take things further.
In an email to HuffPost  Fish said: âThe incident with  Taya Kitman  did not happen as described.  Taya  has been a friend and colleague of nearly 20 years  I have the utmost regard for  her  and the work  she  had done at the institute. We were partners in building the organization and we continue to collaborate on projects that we created together. I know it sounds self-serving  but anyone who knows me knows I would never harm a woman or another person.â
 Kitman  declined to comment.
Reached by phone last week  Navasky praised Fish and insisted he didnât know anything about the alleged physical altercation between Fish and  Kitman . âI donât know what youâre talking about  so thereâs nothing to deny or not deny â he told HuffPost on Friday. âThe Nation Institute is a private thing and the trustees arenât supposed to talk about anything that happened there  and Iâm obeying their rules. But Iâm just telling you that Hamilton was a great partner for me. Period.â
 Kitman  is now executive director of the institute.
âI know that  Taya  recognized that Ham was a problem and did everything she could to get him out of there â Berman said. âThings have been much better since  Taya  took over. Sheâs respected by the staff. Sheâs respected by the fellows. Sheâs respected by the donors. Sheâs very hardworking.  Taya  is literally the exact opposite of Ham  and I mean that in the best way possible about her.â
Berman added: âWhen  Taya  took over  the office became a lot more functional and pleasant to be in.â
After this story was first published   Taya Kitman  released the following statement:

Q: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Boutaris is Negative . But no matter who wins the national election  few believe that Greece can go on without a major overhaul of its government. In Thessaloniki   Mr. Boutaris  has been trying to do that on a local scale for 18 months  bringing  his  experience as a businessman to bear on the bloated work force  the tangled regulations and the huge debt that afflicts the city  much as it does the country.
Many of  his  efforts have prompted city workers to strike and protest. But  he  is undeterred. Nor does  he  have any patience for the shop owners who have ignored  his  efforts to clean up the look of this gracious but somewhat shabby city by enforcing rules about modest signage.
âThere was one guy who said to me  he  wants Thessaloniki to be like Hong Kong â  Mr. Boutaris  said with a shake of  his  head and an expletive. âWell  I said  âI donât want to be like Hong Kong. You think your business will be destroyed because you donât have a sign on the fifth floor? I donât think so.â â
Thessaloniki was about $126 million in debt when  Mr. Boutaris  a successful winemaker   was sworn into office. ( His  predecessor has since been indicted  along with 17 others. They are accused of stealing almost $38 million.) The city was doing a poor job of delivering basic services  most importantly in garbage collection. It was losing manufacturing jobs to Bulgaria. And as far as  Mr. Boutaris  was concerned  Thessaloniki was far from meeting its potential as a tourist attraction and a port city that offers easy access to the Balkans.
 Mr. Boutaris  has hardly solved all the issues. But  he  is already widely credited with increasing tourism  which  he  sees as a way of generating revenues without the need for expensive investment. Brushing aside centuries of tense relations with Turkey   Mr. Boutaris  set off to Istanbul to initiate a campaign to attract tourists.
Shortly afterward  Turkish Airlines resumed flights here  and the number of Turks visiting the city â the birthplace of Turkeyâs first president  Mustafa Kemal Ataturk â doubled last year.  Mr. Boutaris  has also reached out to Israel because the Thessaloniki region  with a population of about one million  once had a large Jewish population. Cruise ships now stop here more frequently.
At the same time   Mr. Boutaris  has taken measures large and small to rein in the budget.  He  hired an auditor to get to the bottom of the cityâs finances  which until recently still involved cash transactions into city pension funds. (Employees were handed stacks of bills and told to make deposits. This is said to have played a large roll in the indictments.)  He  has forced workers to account for their overtime  started a recycling program and traded in  his  limousine for an economy model. So far   Mr. Boutaris  has reduced costs by 30 percent.
âWhat I am trying to do is to open all fronts and create a huge turbulence â  Mr. Boutaris  said. âWhen you propose the slightest change  people say no. If you do it all at once  it is a different thing. Something has to break through.â
âAnd you cannot step back â  he  added. âIf you step back  you lose.â
 Mr. Boutaris  is a rarity in Greece  where most people who seek higher office are career politicians.  He  won election by just 300 votes.  He  is unusually candid  by Greek standards  about  himself .  He  has admitted to being an alcoholic and no longer drinks. And  he  was divorced for seven years and then remarried  his  wife.
Residents here talk about how approachable  he  is compared with the usual politician.  He  rides a bicycle around town and sits in cafes like everyone else  debating the cityâs problems. In fact   Mr. Boutaris  denies  he  is a politician.  He  says running the city is just a project  something to keep  him  busy now that  he  has turned  his  wine business over to  his  three children.
âMy wife said  âYou need to find something else to do â â  Mr. Boutaris  says of  his  decision to go into politics.
 HE  initially joined the Communist Party  but soon resigned.  He  considers  himself  a socialist  but belongs to no party.  His  goal   he  said  is to make Thessaloniki a place where businesses can flourish. But  he  is not happy with the local merchants. The small shopkeepers   he  said  do not want to pay taxes and complain that the malls are undercutting their business.
 Mr. Boutaris  says they must stay open later to compete with the malls  which are open until 9 p.m. But the shop owners are not interested. Another expletive.
Before taking office   Mr. Boutaris  was known for  his  winery and for establishing a preserve to protect bears and wolves.  He  says  his  intent was to preserve the forest  but the bears were an easier selling point. âEverybody likes bears â  he  said. âThe forest would have been harder.â
The garbage trucks are also a problem. More than half are out for repairs at any given time. So  Mr. Boutaris  has decided to contract the maintenance to a private company. City workers promptly went on strike  fearing further privatization. âIt will be settled soon â  he  said. âIâm 70 years old  and I believe I know what I am doing.â

A: no

Q: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Paul George is Neutral .

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Just four games into the season   Paul George  has to face the team  he  just left under less than ideal circumstances.
During the offseason   George 's camp let it be known  he  planned to become a free agent after next season. The disappointed Pacers opted to trade the face of their franchise to Oklahoma City rather than play a season with a star they had no long-term future with and perhaps get nothing in return.
With the Pacers   George  was a four-time All-Star and helped Indiana reach the Eastern Conference Finals twice. The Thunder host the Pacers on Wednesday night.
"It'll be emotional from a standpoint of it's an organization that I started with  had a wonderful journey with  that I had seven unbelievable years with "  George  said.
 George  was especially close to Larry Bird  who was team president when the Pacers made  him  the 10th pick in the 2010 draft.  George  said  he  appreciated the time  he  spent with Bird  who has stepped down as president but remains with the franchise as a consultant.
" His  stories   his  knowledge of the game  talking with  him  through playoff battles and  his  understanding "  George  said. " He 's a legend. Hall of Fame player  Hall of Fame across the whole board — executive  coach. It meant a lot as a young player coming into this league. I was grateful to have that time talking to  him  and sharing conversations."
New Thunder forward Carmelo Anthony had to face his old team  the New York Knicks  in the season opener. He said he spoke with  George  during the preseason about facing their former teams so soon.
"If I sit here and say  he 's not excited about that game tomorrow  I'd be lying to you " Anthony said.
Thunder coach Billy Donovan said he expects  George  to handle the situation well.
"I'm sure that there's things  he 's going through  but  he 's a pro " Donovan said. " He 'll handle things how  he  sees fit to handle them. I think  he 'll be fine."
 George 's adjustment has been a mixed bag so far.  He 's averaging 21.3 points  but  he 's shooting just 37 percent from the field.
