    This year Physics paper was quite tougher than previous years. Specially that section C , questions were so tricky and it was quite difficult to solve those in 3 hours. Also we were given just two day gap and the paper was so difficult. It may also affect the candidates appearing for entrance exams

    Garrett Carter Needs Treatment, Not a lengthy Prison

    In New Jersey a white woman by the name of Susan Hyland with 30 prior arrests for drunk driving was sentenced to probation after striking and killing a 'black' 16 year old pedestrian with her vehicle and leaving the scene of the crime. Also in New Jersey a black man by the name of Garrett Carter  was sentenced to 18 years in prison for a drunk driving incident that killed an adult but he NOT leave the scene of the crime. What's wrong with this story? This is a case of white vs black. Privileged versus non privileged. It's clear to see that both of the cases are closely related but the black  caught a bad break solely because of race. Here's the article on the woman's case:  New Jersey’s highest court on Monday upheld a probation sentence for a woman who fled the scene of a fatal accident while driving on a suspended license. Susan Hyland was admitted to a state drug court program over the objection of prosecutors following the Pennsauken Township crash, which took the life of 16-year-old Quason Turner. In a unanimous ruling that attorneys say will curtail challenges raised when judges divert people into drug court programs, the state Supreme Court found the five-year term of probation was within the bounds of state law. According to court records, Hyland struck and killed Turner on Route 130 in March 2016, fleeing the scene. The woman’s niece, who was a passenger in the car, secretly called 911 to report the accident, the records show. At the time, Hyland already had a “slew of arrests and convictions” and told police she fled because her license had been “suspended for a long time.” She admitted to drinking half a pint of vodka earlier in the day and a court-ordered evaluation later found she suffered from five substance abuse disorders. Hyland sought entry to drug court, a treatment-focused alternative to prison for people who commit crimes while in the grip of addiction. Prosecutors in Camden County opposed her admission, arguing the fact that she fled the scene of a serious accident meant she posed a “danger to the community.” According to court records, Hyland, now 44, was previously convicted of six offenses in state Superior Court and eleven in municipal court, including burglary and drug distribution. She pleaded guilty in 2017 to a range of charges, including knowingly leaving the scene of a fatal motor vehicle accident. The trial judge sentenced her to five year of probation as part of the drug court program. Prosecutors lost an appeal, and the state Supreme Court took up the case. Writing for the court, Justice Lee Solomon noted the state Legislature gave judges “greater discretion to place the person on special probation” when it passed laws establishing drug court. The court found the sentence was within the bounds of the discretion of the judge, who weighed the “unique characteristics and circumstances” of the case. The ruling solidifies that drug court sentences can only be appealed in strict circumstances in which the sentence runs afoul of the state law. Here's the article on Garrett Carter: A Newark man has been sentenced to 18 years in state prison for striking and killing a pedestrian while driving drunk. Garrett Carter, 52, hit Steven Dawkins as he crossed the 200 block of West Market Street in Newark on Sept. 22, 2017, according to the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office. Carter had a blood alcohol content of .168 when his minivan struck the 39-year-old Orange man. The legal limit is .08. He was convicted of vehicular homicide in March. Superior Court judge Michael Ravin, sitting in Newark, issued the sentence on Monday. “The judge’s sentence is a clear message that driving while intoxicated, with its traumatic effect on society, will not be tolerated," assistant prosecutor Brian Pollock said in a statement. “Hopefully, the sentence will help prevent others from engaging in the conduct that has cost Steven Dawkins’ family so much." Here we have 3 families torn apart. 16 year old Quason Turner's family, the Carter family and the family of Steven Dawkins who Garrett Carter was reportedly responsible for killing while intoxicated behind the wheel. It's sad news but what makes it more sad is that Susan Hyland doesn't have to serve any prison time and Garrett Carter has pretty much a LIFE SENTENCE having to serve 18 years at the age of 52.  Susan Hyland's family is happy. Happy that's she got away with a crime that a black man was sentenced to 18 years for. Her crime was even more dangerous. She actually left the scene of the crime and was only sentenced to probation. This is a case of a privileged woman vs a black man. These situations seem to go this route very often in the judicial system. When the suspect or the victim is BLACK, nobody seems to care.  We ask that Garrett Carter's sentence is shortened and that he be placed in a long term treatment center for some help. Whites get the help they need so blacks should also be offered that same help. Let's make the law work the same in everyone's favor. Please sign and share this petition!

    CBSE Lengthy Exam

    In regard to CBSE class 12th Mathematics Examination, more critical pre-examination analysis of question papers should be done by CBSE (which recklessly changes its paper-pattern every two years keeping at stake the future of students with its experimentation). It is a certain concept that filling of OMR sheet properly consumes time in itself. Keeping this in view, it is still mandatory for students to fill the options that are marked as choice and not necessary to attempt. Besides this unreasonable practice, it is well evident that the questions which generally would carry 3-5 marks were present in an exam considered to be 1 mark per question and the time limit was also set according to the 1 mark questions. The idea for us, students is nothing less than preposterous. The exam that should have been considered for at least 2 hours was to be solved only in 90 minutes along with the time consuming task of filling the OMR sheets. The official mathematics sample paper by CBSE is seen misleading as it had reasonable amount of time consuming question and reasonable amount of direct questions and well framed for the 90 minute time limit. Students, well set according to the sample paper felt nothing less than a slap on the face after seeing the question paper where the ratio of time consuming questions and direct questions was not balanced and the paper was not framed according to the given time limit (even the level of questions, though not too hard yet mind-wrecking, required some more time). Keeping in mind the length of the paper, types of questions asked (precisely the case study which needed a lot of critical thinking by students) and the fragile limit of time given to students, the matter should be considered by the higher ups of Education System in India. This is the petition of the students whose future is at stake, for the levels of admissions in colleges have risen up with the fast increasing competition and where each and every mark counts.

    Free David Diaz: An innocent man who has served 22 years in prison.

    David Diaz is currently in prison serving a 37 year-to-life sentence for a shooting that happened in 1998 in Los Angeles county. The victim of this shooting has stated that David is innocent and not the person who shot him and the key witness has confessed to "randomly" accusing David under police pressure. David was just 19 years old when an LAPD squad forced their way into his home and arrested him for attempted murder. In court, the police and prosecutor alleged that David approached a man named Remberto Preciado, asked him what street gang he belonged to, and shot him in the leg. At the time the shooting happened, David was at the movies with his girlfriend and family. He could not have committed this crime. But the jury was persuaded by the prosecutor's case and ultimately convicted David, resulting in his current life sentence. David is now 42-years-old and has been in prison for 22 years. To date, three key witnesses in the case and the shooting victim, have all declared that David is innocent and that they only selected David because they were pressured by police to do so. Despite evidence of his innocence, David remains in prison with his sentence. He won’t be released until he is 57 years old, in 2035. California Governor Jerry Brown must step in to right this wrong. He has power and authority to release David through the commutation process. David has not sat idle in prison all these years. He has completed numerous programs and correspondence courses including paralegal studies and bible studies. He is currently undergoing college classes to obtain his Associates Degree and is enrolled in a business entrepreneur class. He has held many prison jobs and is a peer mentor helping other prisoners with behavioral intervention, anger management,family relations, and life skills. I have known David since 1996.  So many people want David free — including the victim, Remberto — and we feel David's case is a perfect candidate for clemency. In 2015, we requested a commutation from Governor Brown based on David's innocence and the unusual length of sentence he received on gun enhancements (28 years-to-life), but to date, no action or response has been given. Please sign this petition to correct the injustice that occurred with David. We thank you for your support.
