Kewenangan Presiden dalam Pengangkatan dan Pemberhentian Jaksa Agung (Studi Putusan MK Nomor 49 / PUU – VII / 2010 Tentang Permohonan Pengujian Undang-Undang Nomor 16 Tahun 2004 tentang Kejaksaan terhadap Undang-Undang Dasar Negara Republik Indonesia Tahun 1945)

Kontroversi pemberhentian Jaksa Agung Hendarman Supandji bermula ketika Jaksa Agung menetapkan Yusril Ihza Mahendra sebagai tersangka kasusdugaan korupsi biaya akses sistem administrasi badan hukum (sisminbakum). Yusril Ihza Mahendra selaku tersangka mengajukan permohonan uji materikepada Mahkamah Konstitusi terhadap pasal 22 ayat (1) huruf d UndangUndang Nomor 16 Tahun 2004 Tentang Kejaksaan RI. Menurutnya, pasal tersebut tidak memberikan kepastian hukum atas jabatan Jaksa Agung, sehingga dengan berlakunya pasal tersebut Yusril Ihza Mahendra dirugikan hakkonstitusionalnya. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui seberapa besar kewenangan Presiden dalam pengangkatan dan pemberhentian Jaksa Agung serta mengetahui bagaimana implikasi dari putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi nomor 49/PUU-VII/2010. Penelitian ini merupakan jenis penelitian hukum normatif. Pendekatan penelitian yang digunakan adalah pendekatan perundangundangan, pendekatan konseptual, pendekatan kasus, pendekatan historis, dan pendekatan perbandingan. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian yang telah diperoleh, dapat disimpulkan bahwa Mahkamah Konstitusi dalam putusan ini telah membentuk norma baru melalui putusan berjenis konstitusional bersyarat, dengan berdasarkan pertimbangan hakim mengenai sejarah kedudukan Kejaksaan dan konvensi ketatanegaraan yang mengatur masa jabatan Jaksa agung. Putusan ini ternyata tidak membawa akibat hukum terhadap kasus sisminbakum yang dihadapi Yusril Ihza Mahendra dan juga tidak dapat memberhentikan Hendarman Supandji sebagai Jaksa Agung sebab putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi tidak dapat berlaku surut. Keberlakuan putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi Nomor 49/PUU-VII/2010 baru berlaku untuk Pengangkatan Jaksa Agung selanjutnya

The Effects of Folding-In of Basic Mathematics Facts for Students with Disabilities

Research in the area of elementary mathematics has been limited in recent years. Direct instruction methods, including drill tasks, have been recommended for elementary students who have mathematics difficulties. This project involves two studies that examined the effectiveness of a specific direct instruction intervention, Folding-In, on the math computation achievement of elementary students. Weekly Curriculum-based measurement (CBM) progress monitoring data, as well as achievement test data, were used to monitor the effectiveness of the intervention, with improvements noted in math fact fluency in both a university-based clinical tutoring and a classroom intervention setting

Surviving in Europe : geopolitics of biodiversity conservation illustrated by a proxy species Viola uliginosa

Building strategies for continental-scale conservation is challenging due to evolutionary and geopolitical problems. How do policy choices arise from this setting? In this study, we integrate ecological research with policy analysis to examine the problem field with a case study research. We use a violet species endemic to Europe, Viola uliginosa, as a proxy for a significant European Union (EU)-Russian biodiversity pattern and its conservation. The violet's core populations locate in Belarus, Ukraine, and Russia, and all populations in the EU are peripheral. The species is endangered in 12 EU member states and in decline in many places elsewhere. To analyze the choices of conservation, we gathered data on its ecology, distribution, and conservation mechanisms across Europe, putting additional emphasis on the EU enlargement and long-term site histories in Finland. We found that the survival of the species in the EU depends on the enlargement negotiations, conflicts between the EU biodiversity and agricultural policies, selection of the species to national Red Lists and the Habitats Directive, and contingent site histories depending on the conservation activities by civic actors and the member states. While the evolutionary aspect emphasizes the genetic differentiation potential of peripheral populations, the geopolitical aspect characterizes the EU as simultaneous spaces of a monotopia, borderlands, and polycentric development. We conclude that intersections between these geopolitical spaces can be used with evolutionary perspectives to identify local, European, and network-driven policy choices of conservation.Peer reviewe

Trace element cycling in a subterranean estuary : part 2. Geochemistry of the pore water

The definitive version was published in Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta 70 (2006): 811-826, doi:10.1016/j.gca.2005.10.019.Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) is an important source of dissolved elements to the ocean, yet little is known regarding the chemical reactions that control their flux from sandy coastal aquifers. The net flux of elements from SGD to the coastal ocean is dependent on biogeochemical reactions in the groundwater-seawater mixing zone, recently termed the "subterranean estuary". This paper is the second in a two part series on the biogeochemistry of the Waquoit Bay coastal aquifer/subterranean estuary. The first paper addressed the biogeochemistry of Fe, Mn, P, Ba, U, and Th from the perspective of the sediment composition of cores (Charette et al., 2005). This paper uses pore water data from the subterranean estuary, along with Bay surface water data, to establish a more detailed view into the estuarine chemistry and the chemical diagenesis of Fe, Mn, U, Ba and Sr in coastal aquifers. Nine high-resolution pore water (groundwater) profiles were collected from the head of the bay during July 2002. There were non-conservative additions of both Ba and Sr in the salinity transition zone of the subterranean estuary. However, the extent of Sr release was significantly less than that of its alkaline earth neighbor Ba. Pore water Ba concentrations approached 3000 nM compared with 25-50 nM in the surface waters of the bay; the pore water Sr-salinity distribution suggests a 26% elevation in the amount of Sr added to the subterranean estuary. The release of dissolved Ba to the mixing zone of surface estuaries is frequently attributed to an ion-exchange process whereby seawater cations react with Ba from river suspended clay mineral particles at low to intermediate salinity. Results presented here suggest that reductive dissolution of Mn oxides, in conjunction with changes in salinity, may also be an important process in maintaining high concentrations of Ba in the pore water of subterranean estuaries. In contrast, pore water U was significantly depleted in the subterranean estuary, a result of SGD-driven circulation of seawater through reducing permeable sediments. This finding is supported by surface water concentrations of U in the bay, which were significantly depleted in U compared with adjacent coastal waters. Using a global estimate of SGD, we calculate U removal in subterranean estuaries at 20 x 106 mol U y-1, which is the same order of magnitude as the other major U sinks for the ocean. Our results suggest a need to revisit and reevaluate the oceanic budgets for elements that are likely influenced by SGD-associated processes.This research was supported by the National Science Foundation (OCE-0095384) to M.A.C. and E.R.S., and a WHOI Coastal Ocean Institute Fellowship to M.A.C
