Question: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Matthieu Bastareaud is Neutral . In a statement issued in France by his Stade Francais club  20-year-old center Matthieu Bastareaud said he lied to Wellington police last Sunday when he said four or five men had attacked him after returning home late from a bar.
 "I have to return to the events in New Zealand " Bastareaud said. "I owe the truth to everybody. On Saturday evening  I went back to the hotel after drinking too much. I fell in my room  I hit a table and I snicked my cheekbone."
 Bastareaud added that he panicked and was afraid of being axed from the French team.
 "I didn't want to shock my family. I freaked out and I dug myself deeper into a hole " he added.
 The admission wasn't a total surprise to New Zealand government officials and police  many of whom had doubted Bastareaud's version of events from the outset.
 Wellington city mayor Kerry Prendergast said Friday that several French players and possibly the French team coach and doctor were likely to have known that Bastareaud's claims to have been assaulted were untrue.
 The New Zealand Rugby Union expressed "outrage" that Bastareaud's claim had "cast a negative light on rugby  Wellington and New Zealand.
 In Paris  the French Rugby Federation said it will begin disciplinary proceedings against Bastareaud. The FFR said in statement it was "shocked by the player's lies" and apologized to the New Zealand Rugby Union.

Answer: yes


Question: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Elaine Luria is Negative . The reason I raise this now is because weâve got a candidate seeking the Democratic nomination (and just named to the DCCCâs âRed-to-Blueâ list) in VA-02  Elaine Luria  who voted for Republican Scott Taylor both in the 2016 GOP primary AND in the 2016 general election against the Democratic nominee in VA-02. According to Patrick Wilsonâs report in the RTD (bolding added by me for emphasis):
â Elaine  doesnât make decisions just based on political party â  her  campaign manager said by email. âFaced with the options on the ballot   she  took a chance on fellow veteran Scott Taylor who promised to bring change and be something different  but he broke those promises.â
âLike many Democrats in our district   Elaine  voted against Randy Forbes in that primary because he had shown during his legislative career to be an extreme voice in Congress  particularly when it came to womenâs reproductive freedom  LGBT equality  and preventing gun violence â Luria campaign manager Kathryn Sorenson said by email.
âNow  after seeing the way that Scott Taylor has acted in Washington and the votes he has taken to create chaos in our health care system   Elaine  has decided to run against him.â
Back in January  I had actually asked  Luria  about  her  vote in the GOP primary  and  she  responded: âThat year  there was no Democratic primary for Congress and I wanted to have my voice heard on who was on the ballot.â I responded to  her  that âI would have voted for Mickey Mouse or something in that one.â I havenât heard a word from  her  since. LOL
At this point  I havenât chosen a candidate in VA-02  but itâs been between  Luria  and Karen Mallard  the only two serious contenders for the Democratic nomination  as far as Iâm concerned. But Iâve got to say  the news about  Luria  voting for Taylor really bugs me  for at least three reasons.
First off  I think that Taylor is going to have a field day with this. Already  Taylorâs spokesperson is responding gleefully to the RTD  âScott Taylor is the same guy he was in 2016 and has done everything he said he would on the campaign. The only reason  Luria  is running is because she was promised money by Nancy Pelosi to be another rubber stamp in D.C. The people of the 2nd district will see right through it.â Expect to hear a LOT of that type of language in coming months  and certainly if  Elaine Luria  becomes the Democratic nominee in VA-02. So yeah  I truly do not see how this will help  Luria  win the general election. To the contrary  I think it will hurt  her  that  she  voted not once but twice for the same guy  she  voted for less than two years ago.
So thatâs my âJim Webb testâ for Democratic candidates who used to vote Republican: can you explain  articulately and convincingly  why you used to vote Republican (or even serve in a Republican administration) but are now a Democrat? Regarding  Elaine Luria    she  very well might have such a case to make  but so far I havenât heard it. To the contrary  Iâve mostly heard about how  she  doesnât vote based on party (whatever that means  given the stark differences between Democrats and the Party of Sarah Palin  Ken Cuccinelli  Corey Stewart  E.W. Jackson  Donald Trump  etc.  etc.)  how  Taylor  supposedly wasnât what  she  expected  him  to be  etc.
On that latter point  my friend Josh Stanfield of Activate Virginia posted on  his  groupâs Facebook page this morning something that rings true to me: â Scott Taylor  was a member of the House of Delegates and had a partisan voting record in that body. When  he  ran for Congress in 2016  anyone interested in  his  politics or voting behavior wouldâve been just a few clicks away from discovering  his  opposition to pretty much every Democratic priority.â

Answer: no


Question: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Lydia Johnson is Neutral . According to Macomb County Prosecutor Eric Smith   Lydia Johnson  29   is charged with one count of embezzlement from a non-profit organization which could get  her  10 years in prison.
 Johnson  was Dakota's student activity coordinator from July 1  2016 until  her  recent removal and was responsible for all finds.
School officials say  she  oversaw ticket sales for the school's homecoming dance last year  which should have taken in nearly $30 000 based on attendance.  She  only deposited $11 000 into the school's account.
When they searched  her  classroom  they found several homecoming cash deposit envelopes torn open and empty. They also found several casino receipts next to the empty envelopes.  Her  bank records also show cash deposits in excess of  her  salary.
 She  also oversaw ticket sales and receipts for a trip to Camp Tamarack for 60 parents and students. Prosecutors say  she  should have collected and deposited nearly $13 000 but only deposited $500.
After checking MGM records  they found  Johnson  spent more than $90 000 in 2016 playing penny slots.
 She  is expected to be arraigned on the charges Thursday.

Answer:
yes
