12. In school, you do homework. In college, you study.

10. In college, the professors can tell you the answer without looking at the teacher's guide.

George Mallory


George H.L. Mallory
(June 18, 1886 – June 9, 1924)
On June 9, 1924 George Mallory and climbing partner Andrew Irvine were last sighted on Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world, only a few hundred meters from the summit. The fate of George Mallory, one of the most revered, if not the most revered mountain climber ever, was unknown for 75 years until his body was finally discovered in 1999.

Mirror Writing



Leonardo wrote in Italian using a special kind of shorthand that he invented himself. People who study his notebooks have long been puzzled by something else, however. He usually used "mirror writing", starting at the right side of the page and moving to the left. Only when he was writing something intended for other people did he write in the normal direction.

Here is a sample of Leonardo's writing as it appears in his drawings.
This is how it would look reversed by a mirror.


People who were contemporaries of Leonardo left records that they saw him write and paint

Ambidextrous Facts



1. If you can write equally well with either hand, then you are the one percent . Even among the small population of ‘multi-handed’ individuals, very few experience equal ease and skill with both hands. In comparison, around 10% of people are lefties.

Tricks To Clean Your Car

Fizz windshields clean with cola

Fizz windshields clean with cola
When it rains after a long dry spell, a dirty windshield turns into one big mess. Get rid of streaks and blotches by pouring cola over the glass. (Stretch a towel along the bottom of the windshield to protect hood paint.) The bubbles in the cola will fizz away the grime. Just be sure to wash the sticky cola off thoroughly or your cleaning efforts will end up attracting dust and dirt.

Soya...bye bye



Nabi SAW mengamalkan pemakanan sunnah seperti kurma, kismis dll. Tetapi kita telah dipalingkan daripada pemakanan sunnah oleh golongan tertentu sehingga yg baik tidak diambil, sebaliknya kita disogokkan oleh musuh Islam dengan matlamat untuk melariskan barangan mereka. Kita selalu digembar-gemburkan dengan kandungan dan kebaikan soya yang mengandungi nutrien penting dan protein, tapi kali ni MTB nak kongsi sebaliknya. Hakikatnya, soya sebenarnya mengandungi kandungan bahan kimia yang berbahaya. Berikut adalah antara keburukan kacang soya :

1. Tinggi kandungan asid phytic (sejenis bahan anti-nutrien) yang menghalang penyerapan zat dan mineral seperti kalsium, magnesium, zat besi dan zink yang penting untuk badan kita terjejas. Akibatnya, zat makanan yang kita makan setiap hari tidak akan memberi manfaat kerana tidak diserap oleh tubuh kita. Laporan perubatan menunjukkan penduduk Negara Dunia Ketiga yang banyak mengambil kacang soya, mempunyai kekurangan mineral-mineral tersebut dalam badan.

2. Mengandungi hemaglutinin yang mengakibatkan sel darah bercantum sesama sendiri.

3. Mengandungi goitrogen yang mengkibatkan fungsi tiroid menjadi lemah. Ia boleh menyumbang kepada peningkatan hormone tiroid, yang menyebabkan kanser tiroid.

4. Kebanyakan soya adalah genetically modified, tujuannya adalah untuk memperbaiki kualiti dari segi saiz dan kuantiti pengeluarannya. Tapi malangnya tinggi kandungan racun perosak, dan khasiatnya semulajadinya? Hmm.. entah ke mana.

5. Tinggi kandungan natural toxin iaitu antizat (perencat enzim) yang menghalang penyerapan tripsin dan enzim lain yang diperlukan tubuh untuk proses penghadaman. Ia juga boleh merencatkan pertumbuhan manusia (di peringkat kanak-kanak).

Tambahan pula, toksin ini tidak dapat dimusnahkan melalui proses memasak. Ini akan mengakibatkan tubuh badan kita kekurangan asid amino, kembung perut dan kerosakan pankreas. Malang sekali, disebabkan unsur antizat yang terdapat pada soya. Sesetengah pengeluar hasil soya membasuh soya dengan asid di dalam tangki aluminium untuk mamastikan antizat tu hilang!

6. Wujud unsur heavy metal toxic di dalam tubuh badan, dan ia boleh menyebabkan nyanyuk, tahu??

7. Mengandungi satu bahan kimia yang menyerupai hormon estrogen pada wanita. Bahan ini dapat meningkatkan risiko kanser payudara, kanser ovari, kanser prostat, serta melemahkan otak (minda) dan tulang. Bahan kimia ini juga, jika diambil berlebihan mampu mengubah perkembangan seksual / sexual development yang mungkin mempengaruhi kejantinaan seseorang (melemahkan kejantanan lelaki dan mengurangkan kesuburan lelaki dan perempuan).

Ia juga kurang baik untuk bayi kerana ia bertindak seperti estrogen yang mengawal pertumbuhan lelaki dan wanita dewasa. Senang cakap, seolah-olah menggalakkan ia bayi membesar lebih cepat dari kadar yang sepatutnya. Menurut Dr Jill Shneider, Prof Madya Sains & Biologi di Lehigh University, Betlehem, Pensylvania, bayi yang alergik kepada susu lembu tapi diberi susu berasaskan soya merupakan satu keadaan yang berbahaya. Dikatakan, bayi yang diberi minum susu berasaskan soya menghadam phytoestrogen dari kacang soya, seolah-olah bayi tersebut menerima 5 biji pil perancang dalam sehari!

8. Kacang soya mengandungi satu susunan fotokimia (1) yang mengagumkan. Susunan ini merupakan komponen yang aktif secara biologi yang terhasil dari tumbuh-tumbuhan.

9. Selain itu, soya juga mempunyai satu susunan yang paling menarik iaitu satu chemical bernama isoflavone. Isoflavone pula merupakan komponen / sebatian kimia yang dikaji dapat melegakan symptom menopous, mengelak kanser, memperlahankan kadar osteoporosis dan mengurangkan risiko penyakit jantung.

Walau bagaimanapun, kandungan isoflavone ni bukan senang-senang dapat diekstrak dari kacang soya. Hanya selepas menjalani proses penapaian (fermentation) yang lengkap, barulah dapat menghasilkan isoflavone, yang dapat dihadam dengan sempurna dalam sistem penghadaman manusia. Dalam erti kata lain, kacang soya yang tidak menjalani proses penapaian sempurna, mempunyai kurang kandungan isoflavone dan tidak sesuai untuk diminum.

10. Tempe dan kicap (soy sauce) adalah selamat dan baik untuk kesihatan. Ini kerana tempe dan kicap telah melalui proses penapaian (fermentation process). Soya ini cuma tidak elok dimakan secara mentah (fresh) apatah lagi jika telah diproses menjadi air minuman (dari kilang pengeluar terutamanya). Tetapi, bagi sesetengah produk soya seperti tofu, sebatian perencat ini masih wujud, walaupun sedikit.

Untuk pengetahuan kita semua, para kafir agen dajjal ini (yahudi) juga mengwar-warkan kebaikan minum soya kerana USA merupakan pengeluar terbesar soya. Secara kesimpulannya, para kafir ini bukan sahaja setakat melemahkan kita dari segi lain namun secara pemakanan kita jua. Oleh itu kembalilah kepada pemakanan sunnah melibatkan jenis makanan dan cara pemakanan.

Persian almond-milk jelly recipe



Serves 4
Preparation time: 20 minutes, plus cooling and several hours chilling to set
Cooking time: about 10 minutes
 

Ingredients for Persian almond-milk jelly

2 cups (500 ml) low-fat milk
2 teaspoons powdered gelatine
2 tablespoons caster sugar
1 teaspoon pure almond essence
 
Fruit salad
3 oranges
1/4 cup (55 g) caster sugar
2 cardamom pods, very lightly crushed
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon orange-flower water, or more to taste
2 bananas
1/2 pomegranate
 

Preparation for Persian almond-milk jelly

1 Pour 150 ml of the milk into a saucepan. Sprinkle over the gelatine and leave to sponge for 5 minutes without stirring.
 
2 Stir in the sugar and set the pan over a low heat. Cook gently, without boiling, until the sugar and gelatine have completely dissolved, stirring frequently. Remove from the heat and add the remaining milk and the almond essence. Stir to mix. Pour into four 175 ml decorative jelly moulds. Cover and chill for several hours, or until set.
 
3 Meanwhile, peel the zest thinly from 1 orange and cut into thin strips. Squeeze the juice from the orange into a saucepan and add the zest, the sugar, cardamom pods and 150 ml of water. Heat gently, stirring, until the sugar dissolves, then bring to the boil. Boil for 5–10 minutes, or until reduced and syrupy. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice and orange-flower water. Leave to cool.
 
4 Peel the remaining 2 oranges, removing all the white pith, and cut across into slices. Peel and slice the bananas. Scoop out the seeds from the pomegranate half. Combine the fruit in a bowl and pour on the syrup.
 
5 Turn out the jellies onto individual plates. Surround with fruit salad and serve immediately.

Health tip
Milk jellies were a popular dessert in the Victorian era and a regular feature of children’s meals, because nannies recognised that the calcium provided by milk is particularly important for growing children to build strong bones.

How To Manage Allergies at Home


Minimize dust

Dust is a common allergen that quickly collects on all the surfaces in your home. "To help keep dust from gathering, install easy-to-clean shades or machine-washable panels, and clean regularly," says Soto. "If you have curtains, take them down once every two months and have them dry-cleaned." The designer also recommends regular cleaning with a HEPA filter vacuum, which will help capture the allergy-inducing particles you can't see that collect in upholstery and carpets.

Eradicate dust mites

Cleaning your bedding is essential in defeating allergens - think of all the hours you spend in your bed and bedroom every day. "I'm especially sensitive to dust and dust mites, so I always use allergen-proof covers on my pillows and mattress and wash those weekly, along with all of my other bedding, in hot water to kill the dust mites," says Soto. She also recommends that you steam-clean your rugs and upholstered furniture every three to six months.

Change your filters

Filters are made to collect dust and other air particles. However, dirty filters can't do their job. Change your heating/air conditioning filters regularly (and never run your unit without filters). In addition, frequently clean or replace your vacuum filter so it can effectively catch allergens and not kick them back into the air. 

Go bright in the garden

You don't need to cover your yard in rocks to manage your allergies -- simply plant low-pollen plants. "Stick with bright, colorful flowers as they rely on insects rather than wind to transport their pollen," says Soto. "Because of this, brighter flowers tend to produce less pollen." Gladiolas and peonies are low-allergen plants.

Keep pollen out of the house

Soto recommends planting flowers with higher pollen counts as far away from doors and windows as possible to discourage pollen from drifting indoors. In addition, take your shoes off outside before entering your house to prevent pollen and allergens from being tracked in from the outdoors

Do outdoor activities later in the day

Pollen counts tend to be high in the morning, so plan your outdoor activities for the afternoon. This will reduce your exposure to outdoor allergens as well as reduce the level of allergens that might catch a ride with you back into your home.

JYJ The Boy's Letter



소년의 편지 (Boy’s Letter)
[Lyrics: Kim Jaejoong | Composed by: Kim Hyungseok | Arranged by:  Kim Hyungseok, Yoo Seongmin]
VERSE 1
there’s a girl who only knows me
like a star, always shining on me
to a fool like me, saying ‘thank you and i love you’ – my tears fall
from now on, i’ll become your sky so you can shine more brightly
CHORUS
will you love me forever?
walking alone along this road,
i can’t see anything
i wouldn’t be able to live without you
to me, you are my only source of light
mine…
VERSE 2
here i am, where there’s only you
i was a boy too shy and scared; i couldn’t even say i love you
i didn’t even know if you cried or laughed
i only knew how to make you wait,
i hated myself for the tears you shed because of me
i will not make you sad anymore
CHORUS
will you love me forever?
walking alone along this road,
i can’t see anything
i wouldn’t be able to live without you
to me, you are my only source of light
mine…
BRIDGE
where the sky and light meet each other,
i will send out this letter to you
CHORUS
will you stay with me?
in this cold darkness,
we’ll rely on each other’s warmth, like that of the warm sun
all of these will become a song in the sky, it will never be forgotten
even as i close my eyes and relive the memories, i will not feel weary
the love you’ve given me, protecting me all these while,
thank you so much
from now on, i’ll become your sky
Bridge 2
having listened to the boy’s song,
the star shines even brighter
all the hearts out there
(now…)
i hope my song can reach you
to feel and love the same thing
(to make your heart beat/to touch your heart)
CHORUS
will you love me forever?
walking alone along this road,
we’ll rely on each other’s warmth, like that of the warm sun
all of these will become a song in the sky, it will never be forgotten
even as i close my eyes and relive the memories, i will not feel weary
the love you’ve given me, protecting me all these while,
thank you so much
from now on, i’ll become your sky

Jokes Again.....


Right Answer

Jack wakes up with a horrible hangover and a throbbing black eye. The first thing he sees is a single rose on the side table and a note from his wife: “Dear, breakfast is made. I’ve gone shopping to make you your favorite dinner tonight. I love you!”

He stumbles to the kitchen and, sure enough, there’s breakfast. “Joe,” he says to his son, “what happened last night?”

“You came home soused and got that black eye tripping over a chair.”

“So, why the rose, breakfast, and sweet note from your mother?”

“Oh, that. Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and when she tried to take off your clothes, you screamed, ‘Leave me alone, I’m married!’

Special Lane

His new hybrid car was my friend’s pride and joy. He was always bragging about it and boring his buddies to death. As he was giving us a ride one day, he pontificated, “They should have a special lane for people who care about the environment.”
“They already do,” came a voice from the backseat.
“It’s called a sidewalk.”

Can't Talk

A man goes to his doctor and hands him a note that says, “I can’t talk! Please help me!”
“Okay,” says the doctor. “Put your thumb on the table.”
The man doesn’t understand how that will help, but he does what he’s told. The doctor picks up a huge book and drops it on the man’s thumb.
“AAAAAAAAA!” the man yells.
“Good,” says the doctor. “Come back tomorrow, and we’ll work on B.”

Ten Men and One Woman

Ten men and one woman are hanging on a rope that extends down from a helicopter.
The weight of 11 people is too much for the rope, so the group decides one person has to jump off. No one can decide who should go, until finally the woman volunteers.
She gives a touching speech , saying she will sacrifice her life to save the others, because women are used to giving up things for their husbands and children.
When she finished speaking... all the men start clapping.

Psychiatric Evaluation

The teenage boy seemed placid as I approached his hospital bed to give him a psychiatric evaluation. His mother was seated nearby, immersed in her knitting.
I walked over and introduced myself to the boy. He looked right through me and started screaming: “I can’t see! I can’t see!”
I had never witnessed such a dramatic example of hysterical blindness. “How long has this been going on?” I asked his mother.
Without looking up, she replied, “Ever since you stepped in front of his television.”

Written Test

Rob and Tom apply for the same job. They take a written test. “You both got the same number of questions wrong,” the HR person tells them, “but Rob gets the job.”
“If we both got the same number of questions wrong, how come he gets the job?” Tom asks indignantly.
“Well,” says the HR person, “one of his incorrect answers was better than yours.”
“Whoa, how can that be?”
“For problem No. 46, Rob wrote, ‘I don’t know.’ You wrote, ‘Me neither.’”

Weird Phones

THE MOTO CONCEPT
moto_concept
While most of the Mobile Phone companies today try to make slimmer and slimmer phones, some people still come up with designs that are bulky and too big to be put in pockets. The moto Concept by Joseph Liang is one such type. The design looks cute, but people don’t buy phones for their designs alone. The phone Features a very limited button selection, camera, color screen and button hiding slider.

THE SOFT PHONE
soft_phone-weird
This phone might do good with people that love to walk on their walk, or just beat it for bad news’. It is made of fabric and silicon making it squeezable and huggable, since it is created with that in mind. Moreover, you can make a call or hang up by the level of squeeze you give this cellphone.


THE HAND PHONE
hand_phone_concept_design
The Gesture of extending the thumb and the Pinky and talk into the pinky when you want y=to show someone to call him has become famous enough for this designer to come up with an idea of actually talking like that. Just think about the pain it would take to first strap the wires on the back of your hand and then the pain to keep the hand in this position for the duration of the call, awkward. I hope that this concept remains a concept forever.


CELL PHONE GIN FROM NOKIA
cellphone-gun_by_nokia
Why would anyone need a Mobile Phone that doubles as a Gun? You bet it, to call 911 after you have shot someone. That is the best use of this phone I could come up with. This might also be useful if you forget things a lot. Most of the people will forget to take a gun with them when they have to go for walk, but only a few people forget to take their cell phones. The Cellphone Gun concept by Nokia is one of the many designs that are lethal enough to make the patent office reject it right away.


CRYPTEX MOBILE
cryptex-phone_weird_cell_phones
The whole idea of having a Mobile Phone is that it can be used in emergencies. The Cryptex phone is so complex and tough to operate that it would take at least 4 minutes for a person to dial a number on this Phone. If you want to dial a number, you have to turn the dial of every element to the desired cipher. You have to place the numbers in such a way that the umber you want to dial is in line with the green LED. If you want to hang up the call you turn the first segment to “hang up” (red LED). The phone works without buttons and without a display and based on the old dial phones.

The Brown Lady

The Brown Lady


This portrait of "The Brown Lady" ghost is arguably the most famous and well-regarded ghost photograph ever taken. The ghost is thought to be that of Lady Dorothy Townshend, wife of Charles Townshend, 2nd Viscount of Raynham, residents of Raynham Hall in Norfolk, England in the early 1700s. It was rumored that Dorothy, before her marriage to Charles, had been the mistress of Lord Wharton. Charles suspected Dorothy of infidelity. Although according to legal records she died and was buried in 1726, it was suspected that the funeral was a sham and that Charles had locked his wife away in a remote corner of the house until her death many years later.
Dorothy's ghost is said to haunt the oak staircase and other areas of Raynham Hall. In the early 1800s, King George IV, while staying at Raynham, saw the figure of a woman in a brown dress standing beside his bed. She was seen again standing in the hall in 1835 by Colonel Loftus, who was visiting for the Christmas holidays. He saw her again a week later and described her as wearing a brown satin dress, her skin glowing with a pale luminescence. It also seemed to him that her eyes had been gouged out. A few years later, Captain Frederick Marryat and two friends saw "the Brown Lady" gliding along an upstairs hallway, carrying a lantern. As she passed, Marryat said, she grinned at the men in a "diabolical manner." Marryat fired a pistol at the apparition, but the bullet simply passed through.
This famous photo was taken in September, 1936 by Captain Provand and Indre Shira, two photographers who were assigned to photograph Raynham Hall for Country Life magazine. This is what happened, according to Shira:
"Captain Provand took one photograph while I flashed the light. He was focusing for another exposure; I was standing by his side just behind the camera with the flashlight pistol in my hand, looking directly up the staircase. All at once I detected an ethereal veiled form coming slowly down the stairs. Rather excitedly, I called out sharply: 'Quick, quick, there's something.' I pressed the trigger of the flashlight pistol. After the flash and on closing the shutter, Captain Provand removed the focusing cloth from his head and turning to me said: 'What's all the excitement about?'"
Upon developing the film, the image of The Brown Lady ghost was seen for the first time. It was published in the December 16, 1936 issue of Country Life. The ghost has been seen occasionally since.

Jokes???

     

Inherit a Farm

An ailing grandmother was speaking to her favourite granddaughter:
“Lori, I am old and weak, and I know that the time for me to leave is near. I want you to inherit my farm, including the barn, villa, tractors, farmhouse, all the livestock, and the piggery.”
“Wow,” said Lori, stunned. “Thank you so much, Grandma! I didn’t know you had a farm. Where is it?”
Her grandma replied, “You can find it on my Facebook account. Just click on the Farmville bookmark after logging on. My e-mail address is ‘dgranny@yahoo.com,’ the password is ‘just4lori’.

In fourth grade, my son had a huge crush on a classmate. So for Valentine’s Day, he bought her a box of chocolates and took it into school. When I returned home from work, I found him on the couch eating the same box of candy.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Well, I thought about it for a long time," he said between chews. "And I decided that, for now, I still like candy more than girls."

Jokes

A junior manager, a senior manager and their boss were on their way to a lunch meeting. In the taxi, they found a lamp. The boss rubbed it, and a genie appeared. ''I'll grant you one wish each,'' the genie said.

Grabbing the lamp from his boss, the eager senior manager shouted, ''I want to be on a fast boat in the Bahamas with no worries.'' And, poof, he was gone.

The junior manager couldn't keep quiet. He shouted, ''I want to be in California, with beautiful girls, food and cocktails.'' And, poof, he was gone.

Finally, it was the boss's turn. ''I want those idiots back in the office after lunch.''

Tidak Pernah Menanggalkan Make Up Selama 2 Tahun

Setiap hari, kita akan menggunakan alat make - up ketika keluar rumah atau hendak keluar bekerja. Namun, kita mestilah menanggalkan make-up tersebut setiap kali sebelum tidur agar kulit wajah kita sentiasa segar dan sihat. Tetapi, tidak kepada seorang wanita Korea yang telah memakai make-up selama dua tahun tanpa menanggalkannya walau sehari.

Bae Dal-Mi merupakan seorang gadis berusia 20 tahun dan beliau telah menggunakan make-up sejak berumur 14 tahun. Baginya, make-up sangat penting untuk kelihatan sempurna setiap masa termasuk waktu tidur. Beliau juga akan membawa ke mana sahaja cermin wajah dan akan menambahkan lapisan make-up tersebut agar sentiasa cantik dan tidak comot.

Setelah itu, ibunya yang merasakan bahawa tabiat anaknya adalah agak pelik telah memberitahu pihak stesyen TV tentang hal tersebut. Seorang ahli Dermotologi telah memujuk Bae Dal-Mi untuk menanggalkan make-up pada wajahnya apabila mendapati kulit wajahnya yang kelihatan dua kali ganda lebih tua dari umurnya.

Pengharaman Pemakaian Tudung Di IPT???

         
Isu pengharaman pemakaian tudung di IPTA dan IPTS di Malaysia. Ahli-ahli parlimen negara sudah mendapat kata sepakat bagi mengharamkan pemakaian tudung bagi pelajar wanita di IPTA dan IPTS di Malaysia ini berikutan dengan faktor-faktor kesihatan. Ini kerana pelajar-pelajar wanita yang memakai tudung ini didapati kurang mendapat prestasi yang agak cemerlang. Kenyataan ini juga disahkan oleh pakar-pakar di hospital selayang yang membuat kajian terperinci pemakaian tudung ini.
Mereka berkata tudung ini akan menyebabkan pengedaran udara yang kurang dan menyebabkan kepala yang melindungi otak akan menjadi kurang segar dan akan menjadikan otak mereka tidak aktif seperti pelajar-pelajar yang tidak memakai tudung. Jadi bagaimana isu ini boleh berlaku topik ini sengaja ditulis dan hanya disiarkan kecil sahaja di bahagian muka surat yang sekiranya tidak diteliti tidak akan nampak.
Adakah kerajaan Malaysia takut akan hal ini. Yang dulu begitu marah terhadap Singapura yang memberhentikan 2 orang murid perempuan kerana memakai tudung ke sekolah. Ape susah jadi dengan isu ini diam begitu sahaja. Sekarang ape sudah jadi paku dulang paku serpih mengata orang dia yang lebih. Sekarang Malaysia sanggup mengHARAMkan pemakaian tudung pihak JAKIM juga tidak dapat berbuat apa-apa dengan isu ini. Ini kerana semuanya terletak di tangan menteri-menteri di Malaysia.
Bagaimana pula dengan Pak Lah yang selalu menjadi Imam di masjid-masjid, adakah beliau juga bersetuju dengan isu pengharaman pemakaian tudung ini. Jadi bagaimana seorang Imam boleh setuju tentang pengharaman pemakaian tudung ini.
Bagi pihak Universiti Islam Antarabangsa Malaysia (UIAM). International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) juga hanya menunggu dan lihat sahaja apa yang akan terjadi. Universiti ini dahulu yang mewajibkan setiap pelajar wanitanya memakai tudung apabila memasuki kawasan universiti kini hanya mengambil endah tak endah sahaja mengapa MALAYSIA sekarang ini. MALAYSIA yang dulunya dikenali kerana agama rasminya adalah agama Islam. Kini boleh mengharamkan pemakaian tudung di Malaysia yang kita semua sudah maklum sebagai seorang wanita Islam wajib memakai tudung.
Isu ini sengaja tidak digembar-gemburkan agar tidak mahu berlaku kekecohan ataupun apa-apa reformasi. Pihak media massa seperti TV juga tidak mahu mengambil inisiatif bagi membetulkan semua ini. Adakah Malaysia sudah lemah..
Pihak menteri juga sudah mengeluarkan notis bagi pengharaman pemakaian tudung ini di semua IPTA dan IPTS dan juga akan menghantar notis ini ke sekolah-sekolah. Pihak menteri juga telah menyenaraikan beberapa jenis tudung yang haram dipakai sewaktu berada di dalam sekolah ataupun kawasan kampus antara jenis tudung yang tidak boleh dipakai ialah:-
1)TUDUNG SAJI;
2)TUDUNG PERIUK;
3)TUDUNG TERMOS;
4)TUDUNG CAT;
dan berbagai-bagai jenis TUDUNG BOTOL yang selalu menjadi permainan murid sekolah masih di dalam pemerhatian.
