Urgency of Legal Protection for Labor Rights within Waging Sector
National development is initiated in goal to achieve fully-fledged developments for Indonesians and the society as a whole through achieving prosperity, wealthy, equality either materially or spiritually in accordance to Pancasila and Undang-Undang Dasar 1945 ‘The 1945 Constitution of Republic of Indonesia’. For labors or workers, doing what they are assigned with are clearly intended to help sustaining their daily needs, as they will later receive remunerations based on their working contributions. Wage as mean of incomes is one of the rights embedded to the workers that need to be protected in line with the relevant regulations in force. Keywords: Legal Protection, Workers Right, Wages
Teaching to the Teachers: Secondary Education English Students in the Introductory Linguistics Course
Non-linguistic majors can benefit from well-designed lessons in the introductory linguistics course that raise issues students will need to know about in their future careers. At our institution, the introductory linguistics course is populated by students majoring in English Literary Studies, Secondary Education English, and Professional Writing. Secondary Education English (SEE) majors take Language and Linguistics because they must fulfill requirements mandated by the state: knowledge of morphology, phonology, syntax, history of the English language, and so on. In addition to these required subjects, we introduce other issues as well that we feel are essential to developing these particular students’ critical awareness of language issues that will affect them as they pursue their careers in education. Research has shown that most teacher education courses limit exposure to language and linguistic topics (Goodman, 2003; Baugh, 2005; Ann and Peng, 2005). So, for instance, while a course in secondary language arts pedagogy may teach students how to help their future students develop reading strategies for assigned texts, the course probably does not discuss how community or home dialects may impede understanding of such texts. Even career topics may be differently handled depending on whether they are part of a teacher education or a linguistics course: while an education course may inform students about the possibility of studying to teach ESL, or even earn a teaching certificate in ESL, a linguistics course might alternatively explore the issue of bilingual education, opening up the topic for students to learn about some of the national and state policies that influence whether bilingual education, and thus ESL instruction, is offered or not. Because SEE majors are less likely, then, to be introduced to contemporary language and linguistic topics in their education classes, we make a point of including such issues in the introductory linguistics course. The course curricula has included, for example, historical analyses of treatments of particular language groups – Hawaiian, Native American, for instance – , investigation into the motives and goals of the U.S. English movement, study of the contested issue of bilingual education and its use across the country, researching books that have been banned for language reasons, the study of regional and ethnic dialects, and other topics that future teachers must know about to be well-informed and successful instructors. Our presentation would include suggestions for ways in which content of the introductory course can be adjusted to specific populations of students to create the most effective and relevant learning experiences.

A strategy for constructing aneuploid yeast strains by transient nondisjunction of a target chromosome
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Most methods for constructing aneuploid yeast strains that have gained a specific chromosome rely on spontaneous failures of cell division fidelity. In <it>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</it>, extra chromosomes can be obtained when errors in meiosis or mitosis lead to nondisjunction, or when nuclear breakdown occurs in heterokaryons. We describe a strategy for constructing N+1 disomes that does not require such spontaneous failures. The method combines two well-characterized genetic tools: a conditional centromere that transiently blocks disjunction of one specific chromosome, and a duplication marker assay that identifies disomes among daughter cells. To test the strategy, we targeted chromosomes III, IV, and VI for duplication.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>The centromere of each chromosome was replaced by a centromere that can be blocked by growth in galactose, and <it>ura3::HIS3</it>, a duplication marker. Transient exposure to galactose induced the appearance of colonies carrying duplicated markers for chromosomes III or IV, but not VI. Microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) confirmed that disomic strains carrying extra chromosome III or IV were generated. Chromosome VI contains several genes that are known to be deleterious when overexpressed, including the beta-tubulin gene <it>TUB2</it>. To test whether a tubulin stoichiometry imbalance is necessary for the apparent lethality caused by an extra chromosome VI, we supplied the parent strain with extra copies of the alpha-tubulin gene <it>TUB1</it>, then induced nondisjunction. Galactose-dependent chromosome VI disomes were produced, as revealed by CGH. Some chromosome VI disomes also carried extra, unselected copies of additional chromosomes.</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>This method causes efficient nondisjunction of a targeted chromosome and allows resulting disomic cells to be identified and maintained. We used the method to test the role of tubulin imbalance in the apparent lethality of disomic chromosome VI. Our results indicate that a tubulin imbalance is necessary for disomic VI lethality, but it may not be the only dosage-dependent effect.</p
