PROBLEM: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Robert Mueller ? A 'Toothless' Old Law Could Have New Fangs  Thanks To Robert Mueller
But  Justice Department special counsel Robert Mueller  isn't laughing — and neither may potential violators if  he  decides to make it  his  new weapon of choice.
Then  in October  Mueller's office changed that when it indicted former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort and  his  longtime business associate Rick Gates — instantly becoming the highest-profile FARA prosecution ever.
Those charges have raised the question about whether  Mueller  has more up  his  sleeve for other people swept up in the Russia probe who could be connected with lobbying and influence work for foreign governments and entities.
 Mueller 's next steps
With Manafort and Gates charged  one next potential FARA target for  Mueller  is former national security adviser Michael Flynn. Flynn belatedly filed a FARA registration in March for work his consulting firm did on behalf of the Turkish government. That in itself isn't necessarily a problem — the Justice Department makes it a policy to accept late filings rather than punish the practice  as a means to encourage filing at all.

PROBLEM: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Aaron Judge ? Aaron Judge  always seems to make it happen â no matter what.
Even when  he âs not hitting   he  still manages to make a game-saving catch â just like  he  did in Game 3  when  he  robbed Francisco Lindor of a two-run homer.
And even when  he âs striking out in nearly every at-bat   he  still manages to come up with the biggest hit of the night â just like  he  did in Game 4  when  he  battled back against Trevor Bauer and ultimately produced a two-out  two-run double in the second inning that gave the Yankees a 4-0 lead en route to a 7-3 victory over the Indians in the Bronx  which sets up a do-or-die Game 5 on Wednesday night at Progressive Field.
 Judge  entered that at-bat 0-for-11 with nine strikeouts in the ALDS. But  he  certainly made  his  first hit of the series count â producing two huge runs.
â He  continues to be patient â Joe Girardi said. âTheyâre making a lot of good pitches on  him   thereâs no doubt about that. But heâs maintaining the strike zone when he gets a pitch to hit â and a lot of times  heâs able to hit it. He was able to do it (Monday night). Thatâs a huge hit. Thereâs a big difference between 2-0 and 4-0. It allowed Luis Severino to relax a bit.â
Girardi had said going into Game 4 that  Judge  was due. And given that  Judge  had a couple of bad strike three calls go against him earlier in the series â the manager had a point.

Yet  Judge  was facing a starter in Bauer that had  his  number.
Bauer had fanned  Judge  three times in his Game 1 gem  another time in Judgeâs first at-bat of Game 4 â getting him to chase a high fastball with the count full â and after  Judge  fell behind 0-2 in his second at-bat  it was about to be five Ks in a row.
But  Judge  is the potential 2017 AL MVP  after all  no easy out â even when  he âs not going well at the plate.
So  Judge  took two straight curveballs in the dirt from arguably the best curveball pitcher in baseball  evening the count at 2-2.
 He  then fouled off a curve and a 97-mph fastball to stay alive.

 Judge  took a third breaking ball in the dirt to bring about a second consecutive full count. And Bauer threw  him  a second consecutive high heater after that.
But this time   Judge  got on top of the 96-mph fastball  driving it into left field  as Aaron Hicks and Brett Gardner came around to score  sending the sellout crowd at Yankee Stadium into a frenzy  and forcing Bauer out of the game after just 1.2 innings following an intentional walk to Didi Gregorius.
âStay on the heater. Stay on the heater â  Judge  said when asked about  his  approach. âBauerâs a guy that has great stuff  and he wants to go out there and show it. Heâs a dominant pitcher. I wasnât surprised (I got a fastball there).â

SOLUTION: Positive

PROBLEM: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Gokulnath Shetty ? According to court documents filed on Saturday by the CBI   branch deputy manager Gokulnath Shetty  issued a series of fraudulent Letters of Undertaking â essentially guarantees sent to other banks so that they would provide loans to a customer  in this case a group of Indian jewelry companies.
 Shetty  did so using the bankâs SWIFT system to log in with passwords that allowed  him   and in at least some instances a more junior official  to serve as both the person who sent messages and as the person who reviewed them for approval  according to court documents and interviews with bank executives.
 Shetty  is now in custody and  he  has not publicly responded to the allegations. Calls to a cell phone listed for  his  wife on court documents were not answered.
âWhen you are flooded with customers in the morning  with 101 demands  you look for shortcuts â  he  said. âYou do somebody elseâs work  somebody else does your work. You are not working in an ideal situation.â
