Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Forrest Claypool ? Mayor Rahm Emanuel on Thursday continued to defend his handpicked Chicago Public Schools chief in the face of a searing inspector generalâs report that accuses district CEO Forrest Claypool of engaging in a âfull-blown cover-upâ to ward off an ethics probe.
 Claypool  ârepeatedly liedâ during the investigation by denying  he  had asked an attorney to alter a bill for legal advice on an ethics issue involving the districtâs top attorney  said Inspector General Nicholas Schuler  who has recommended that  Claypool  be fired. âIâm not looking at freaking bills  â Claypool  said in one interview with investigators  according to Schulerâs report.
âAt every turn in this matter   Claypool  kept making matters worse. And it appears that  his  decisions were driven by a clear desire to keep information harmful to  his  narrative from the Board  the OIG and the public â Schuler wrote.
 Claypool  met privately with school board members on Thursday and issued a lengthy statement in which  he  apologized for âmistakes in judgmentâ while defending  his  legacy and making it clear  he  disagrees with Schulerâs interpretation of CPS ethics policy.
âTo put this in perspective: This situation is about how I zealously tried to get Chicago students their fair share of state education dollars  after years and years of racial discrimination  and getting those kids the best possible legal representation â said  Claypool   who canceled a scheduled appearance at a North Side elementary school on Thursday. He did not directly address Schulerâs most damaging allegations.
Claypoolâs alleged cover-up turned an investigation into whether district attorney Ronald Marmer violated CPS ethics policies on contracts and business relationships into a call for  Claypoolâs  termination. Schuler also is recommending that Marmer be disciplined with a âlengthy suspension or even termination.â
Marmer is one of several of  Claypool 's former colleagues and past political donors who have won district jobs and consulting contracts. He has received annual payments of roughly $200 000 as severance from the law firm of Jenner & Block in addition to his CPS salary.
Three attorneys on a CPS ethics committee concluded Marmer couldnât manage the contract because his severance payments created a âbusiness relationshipâ with Jenner.. A fourth CPS attorney  Joseph Moriarty  was told of the committeeâs decision and agreed with it. Moriarty told Schuler that Marmer âbecame concerned by the decision â and was going to speak with  Claypool .
 Claypool  and Marmer then turned to former CPS general counsel Patrick Rocks for another opinion  Schuler said. In a conference call with  Claypool  and two other attorneys  Rocks said he agreed with CPS' legal consensus.
 So Claypool  and Marmer decided to ask labor attorney James Franczek for his take. Franczek also agreed with the previous opinions  which didnât go down well with  Claypool  and Marmer. He later sent an email to Moriarty that said âI think I am off the xmas card list.â
 Claypool  ultimately turned to political donor J. Timothy Eaton  who  according to Schulerâs report  served as a teacherâs assistant for a college course  Claypool  took while Eaton was a law student.
 âClaypool  attempted to paper over the opinions of the six attorneys with Eatonâs letter â Schuler wrote in his report. In addition  after the IGâs investigation had begun  Marmer complained about Franczekâs bill  which had âCPSâs Code of Ethicsâ and âethics issuesâ listed on it.  Claypool  asked Franczek to change the listings. Franczek then crossed out the entries and hand wrote âpersonnelâ and âpersonnel issuesâ in their place  the report says.
Franczek delivered the reworded invoice back to  Claypool  with a cover letter marked âFor Forrest Claypoolâs Eyes Only.â
In interviews with the IG during the investigation   Claypool â unequivocally  emphatically and repeatedlyâ denied  he  had asked Franczek to make changes to the bill  and said â he  would never have been involved in such lowly billing matters.â
But last month  in a letter to Schuler's office   Claypool  apologized for intervening to reword the invoice.  Claypool 's letter acknowledged Schuler had documents that contradicted the CEO's initial claim.
â He  turned 180 degrees from claiming certain memory to no memory at all â Schuler wrote in  his  report. â His  letter was designed to taint the Boardâs reception of the OIGâs final report by falsely portraying lies on two separate occasions as mere lapses of memory.â

Answer: Neutral


Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Justin Cronin ? His new vampire thriller  "The Passage " published this month  is a best-seller. The unfinished manuscript sold in a bidding war to Fox 2000 for $1.75 million. And Stephen King called during Cronin's interview on ABC's "Good Morning America" to tell him that he is a fan.
 Cronin talked about vampires  his inspiration for "The Passage" and readers' reaction to his book in a recent interview.
 Cronin: It was her dare. In the fall of 2005 my daughter was 8. I was kind of wondering what to do next and she came to me and she said she thought I should write a book  in her words  "about a girl that saves the world and that it should be interesting." I think every interesting thing a man does in his life  he probably does to impress a girl  and so I wrote this book to impress my daughter.
 Cronin: The word "series" isn't quite right. I want each of these books to be a satisfying book all in itself. ... To call it a trilogy is true but not really the whole truth and not the exact truth  but there are three books all taking place in this world with this basic set of characters.
 Cronin: Oh  yeah. My office is the war room. I've got a white board and photographs and maps and every kind of thing up there.

Answer: Positive


Question: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Aaron Boone ? Thereâs a lot going on here at Yankees camp. There is  the Great Aaron Boone Experiment . Can  he  dive from the broadcast booth to managing even though  he  has never managed before?
There is  the Great Left Field Experiment .
 Boone  pretty much solidified Greenâs bullpen future when  he  said after the game  âI think probably our preference is to eventually move  him  back [to the bullpen]  but we want to at least be in that position should something come up.â
The move back to the pen would be âpretty soon â  Boone  said.
Greenâs numbers were off the charts last season as  he  went 5-0 over 39 relief appearances in  his  first real season as a reliever. In 67 relief innings   he  posted a 1.61 ERA and struck out 100 batters. With two outs and runners in scoring position   he  held hitters to an .045 batting average.  He  still had enough left in the tank to throw 6 Â¹/â innings against the Astros in the ALCS over three games and did not allow an earned run against that mighty Houston lineup while striking out seven.
Green  26  is working on a changeup as well to get weak contact. âI just need to throw it more ââ  he  said.
Green believes  he  could maintain the same kind of velocity as a starter as  he  does out of the bullpen.
âEverybody is hoping to start  but Iâm comfortable with whatever role ââ Green said.  He  said the key is to be confident as a reliever.
Too many players worry about tomorrow. Not Green.  He âs not about to demand anything from the manager.
âThis will all play itself out ââ  he  said of the possibility of staying in the bullpen or going back to starter.  He  has a bounce-back arm that can fit any role. âIâll find a way to get it done.ââ

Answer:
Positive
