[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Fadia ? So once again  we put out the call to Syrian contacts around the U.S. And we found  a woman named Fadia .  She  was born and raised in Aleppo and came to the U.S. more than 30 years ago.  She  and  her  husband raised their children here.  She  asked that we not use  her  last name because  she  still has family in Aleppo and doesn't want them to get in trouble if the wrong person hears of  her  participation in this story.
But  her  family â they were our in.
So that's how it happened that one of Fadia's relatives walked in to Syrjeia by the public garden and said  "There's a radio show in New York that wants to talk to you."
A few weeks later  I was in  Fadia 's living room in the New York suburbs calling Imad Syrjeia on an app called Viber that the Syrian government can't track. Imad's father opened the restaurant in the 1970s and has since passed away.
At first  Imad was wary.  Fadia  explained  her  family's connection to  his  and reminded  him  of the person who had come into  his  store talking about a radio show in New York.  She  said it's just a show about food â nothing political.  He  said OK.
When I asked how  he  and the restaurant were doing  Imad insisted everything was great. But  Fadia  said  he  would never dare say otherwise  in case the wrong person is listening.
" He  doesn't know you " she explains. " He  can't even say it to  me . I'm Syrian but  he  won't."
I don't speak Arabic. (Later on I had the recording of this conversation translated.) But just hearing Imad's voice coming out of the speaker in that moment was deeply moving. Knowing  his  voice was coming from a place that the news had told me was destroyed.
As  Fadia  and I said goodbye to him  he invited me to Syria.
"He will welcome you " said  Fadia  enthusiastically. "They're very generous. They welcome everybody!"

[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Deborah Rutter ? âThe Honors are the greatest weekend of the year  and it is also the bane of our existence  â Deborah Rutter  said with a laugh. For the president of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts  the annual Kennedy Center Honors  airing on CBS on Dec. 26 and honoring dancer Carmen de Lavallade  rapper LL Cool J  television producer and writer Norman Lear and singers Gloria Estefan and Lionel Richie  is a welcome national spotlight on the memorial to the late president. But thatâs all anyone seems to know about the the white jewel box on the Potomac.
âWe really like to think about the other 364 days of the year  and all of the programming that happens on those days â  Rutter  told me in the latest episode of âCape Up.â âWhat I love about being here at the nationâs cultural center is that we have really a mandate to welcome all of the performing arts. It is not just a performing arts center for one assumed art form or another.â
I bet you didnât know that hip hop was one of those art forms at the Kennedy Center and that Q-Tip is its artistic director. âThis is a first â  Rutter  said. âAnd as far as I know  there is no other artistic director for hip-hop â¦ anywhere in probably the world. And weâre very proud to have Q-Tip here leading  guiding and inspiring us.â
While she didnât need much convincing   Rutter  allowed that there could be others who might â for fear of what it could mean for the other arts. âJust because we are bringing in more programming that includes hip-hop artists  it does not mean that weâre doing less dance or less international programming or less of the National Symphony Orchestra â she said. âIt just means that weâre doing more  that we have thrown open the doors of the Kennedy Center  and we are ensuring that all are welcome here.â

There are nine performance spaces at the Kennedy Center that are in use all year. In addition to the orchestra and  the Washington National Opera  Rutter  noted the 46-year-old institution has âa magnificent  world-recognized ballet season. We have contemporary dance  we have jazz  we have a huge jazz series  chamber music  recitals  comedy  international programming.â
Listen to the podcast to hear  Rutter  talk further about the work of the Kennedy Center and how it fits into the cultural life of Washington.  She  goes into what it is like to be the local performing arts center for members of Congress  foreign diplomats and âquite a number of justices from the Supreme Court.â But  Rutter  insists none of those constituencies tries to exert influence over programming.
âHere at the center we have no limits on what we could present â  Rutter  told me. âThe problems I always describe is how to say no  when to say no  and how to not be really  truly overwhelmed by the extraordinary limitless richness of what happens here.â

[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Leigh Corfman ? Leigh Corfman   left  in a photo from 1979  when she was about 14. At right  from top  Wendy Miller around age 16  Debbie Wesson Gibson around age 17 and Gloria Thacker Deason around age 18. (Family photos)
 Leigh Corfman  says  she  was 14 years old when an older man approached  her  outside a courtroom in Etowah County  Ala.  She  was sitting on a wooden bench with  her  mother  they both recall  when the man introduced himself as Roy Moore.
It was early 1979 and Moore â now the Republican nominee in Alabama for a U.S. Senate seat â was a 32-year-old assistant district attorney. He struck up a conversation   Corfman  and  her  mother say  and offered to watch  the girl  while  her  mother went inside for a child custody hearing.
âHe said  âOh  you donât want  her  to go in there and hear all that. Iâll stay out here with  her  â â says Corfmanâs mother  Nancy Wells  71. âI thought  how nice for him to want to take care of  my little girl .â
This undated family photo shows  Leigh Corfman  with  her  mother  Nancy Wells  around 1979 when  Corfman  was about 14 years old. (Family Photo)
Alone with  Corfman   Moore chatted with her and asked for her phone number  she says. Days later  she says  he picked her up around the corner from her house in Gadsden  drove her about 30 minutes to his home in the woods  told her how pretty she was and kissed her. On a second visit  she says  he took off her shirt and pants and removed his clothes. He touched her over her bra and underpants  she says  and guided her hand to touch him over his underwear.
âI wanted it over with â I wanted out â she remembers thinking. âPlease just get this over with. Whatever this is  just get it over.â  Corfman  says  she  asked Moore to take  her  home  and he did.
Two of Corfmanâs childhood friends say  she  told them at the time that  she  was seeing an older man  and one says  Corfman  identified the man as Moore. Wells says her daughter told her about the encounter more than a decade later  as Moore was becoming more prominent as a local judge.
Aside from  Corfman   three other women interviewed by The Washington Post in recent weeks say Moore pursued them when they were between the ages of 16 and 18 and he was in his early 30s  episodes they say they found flattering at the time  but troubling as they got older. None of the three women say that Moore forced them into any sort of relationship or sexual contact.
