DRINK WATER ON EMPTY STOMACH
It is popular in Japan today to drink water immediately after waking up every morning. Furthermore, scientific tests have proven its value. We publish below a description of use of water for our readers. For old and serious diseases as well as modern illnesses the water treatment had been found successful by a Japanese medical society as a 100% cure for the following diseases:
Headache, body ache, heart system, arthritis, fast heart beat, epilepsy, excess fatness, bronchitis asthma, TB, meningitis, kidney and urine diseases, vomiting, gastritis, diarrhea, piles, diabetes, constipation, all eye diseases, womb, cancer and menstrual disorders, ear nose and throat diseases.
METHOD OF TREATMENT
1. As you wake up in the morning before brushing teeth, drink 4 x 160ml glasses of water
2. Brush and clean the mouth but do not eat or drink anything for 45 minutes
3. After 45 minutes you may eat and drink as normal.
4. After 15 minutes of breakfast, lunch and dinner do not eat or drink anything for 2 hours; i.e. you can drink straight after a meal (within the first 15 minutes) but not for 2 hours after that.
5. Those who are old or sick and are unable to drink 4 glasses of water at the beginning may commence by taking little water and gradually increase it to 4 glasses per day.
6. The above method of treatment will cure diseases of the sick and others can enjoy a healthy life. The following list gives the number of days of treatment required to cure/control/ reduce main diseases:
1. High Blood Pressure - 30 days 2. Gastric - 10 days 3. Diabetes - 30 days
4. Constipation - 10 days 5. Cancer - 180 days 6. TB - 90 days
7. Arthritic patients should follow the above treatment for only 3 days in the 1st week, and from 2nd week onwards - daily.
This treatment method has no side effects, however at the commencement of treatment you may have to urinate a few times. It is better if we continue this and make this procedure as a routine work in our life.
Drink Water and Stay healthy and Active.
This makes sense ... the Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals ..not cold water. maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating!!! Nothing to lose, everything to gain...
For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you.
It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this "sludge" reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.
A serious note about heart attacks: Women should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting. Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line. You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms.
60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive...
A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this mail sends it to everyone they know, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life.

CASE STUDY : THE EVALUATION OF INFORMATION SYSTEM IN MY SCHOOL – SJK( TAMIL) SARASWATHY, OLD KLANG ROAD, KUALA LUMPUR
1. Abstract
This case study is about the usage of School Information systems in National Type Saraswathy Primary Tamil School , Km10, Old Klang, Road , Kuala Lumpur. The paper is aimed at analyzing the information system and evaluates the objective, purpose and the characteristics of the system. It also looks at the advantages and disadvantages as well as the recommendations to improve it so that it will serve its intended purpose more effectively. The evaluation was based on the experiences of using the system as an end user. It is absolutely in use in my school which is a small urban school located in a rural environment. So there are many limitations to our findings. It is expected through this study, there will be some knowledge to upgrade our system in the future.
2. Introduction :
The study focuses on the uses of various Information Systems in the management of my school. The systems which are being used in my school are Educational Management Information System, Students’ Data Management System, Text Book Loan Scheme system, and Students’ Discipline system. The study will evaluate the objectives, purpose, characteristics of the system and how far the system improves the effectiveness of task performance by the teachers and the staffs.
3. Background :
Name of my school is National Type Saraswathy Primary School. It is located at 10th.Km, Old Klang Road, Kuala Lumpur, neighboring an Industrial Area and a Malay Village. It has been in operation for 50 years since it was established by a group of Philanthropists. It has colonial wooden structure of single storey building which was built in an area on 1.27 hector. The school was started with 100 students but the enrolment gradually increased and at one time there were 600 students were studying in this school. But due to the development of Petaling Jaya as the satellite Town, the peoples were forced to shift to other areas. So the present enrolment is 265 who come from middle or low income family. There are sixteen teachers and six non- teaching staffs in this school.
4. Objective of Evaluation :
4.1 To evaluate the various types of information systems being used in National Type Primary Saraswathy Tamil School ;
4.2 To evaluate the effectiveness of the Information System in performing the task it is intended for;
4.3 To evaluate the characteristics of Information System in usage ;
5. Information Systems in National Type Primary Saraswathy Tamil School:
5.1 Educational Management Information System ( EMIS )
This system was created by the Ministry of Education to create a network of school Management Information System to retreat information to manage the needs of schools. It was intended to give access to all the information which is needed in making decision on matters of management of schools now and the future planning. The system runs on Windows platform and it is a system ease of use. The system comes with software which is installed in the computer. The user normally a teacher in-charge –of Data management was exposed to a week of training on how to use the program.
5.2 Student Information System ( SIS )
This system is a complimentary system to the existing School Management System. All the data required are derived from the EMIS. This system helps us in getting the required information. It is an easy install system with two days of training is sufficient to handle the system. This system manned by teachers who will retrieve information to be submitted to the department from time to time.
5.3 E- Invigilators ( E-INVI )
This is system introduced by the Malaysian Examination Syndicate. It used by the schools to nominate the names of the invigilators for National Examinations such as The Primary School Assessment Test ( UPSR ), Lower Secondary Assessment Examination ( PMR ) and The Malaysian Education Certificate Examination ( SPM ). The names of the invigilators will be retrieved from EMIS. The data will be saved in a floppy disk and will be submitted to Education Department since not all schools have the Internet facilities.
5.4 E-Registration of Year One Pupils ( YEAR 1 )
This is a system created by Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur Education Department in the year 2001 to emplacement of newly registered Year One pupils. It is a system which is installed in school computers. The schools are required to key-in the data of the students who registered by the parents before 31st of March for the following year. Then the data will be transferred to a mobile disk and submitted to the Primary School Division of the FTKL Education Department. The data of 30, 000 pupils were able to be processed within one month. It takes three to four months to perform this task when it was done manually. This is very easy and reliable system as well as it reduces workload tremendously.
5.5 Text Book Loan System ( SPBT )
This system was implemented by the Text Book Division of Ministry Of Education. It is sub-system of EMIS system where the data are retrieved from. This system is install through a software and it needs Pentium 4, with 64 MB RAM, window 98 and above platform, Microsoft Access, a Barcode Reader and a printer. The system will track the eligibly status of students for the loan scheme, distribution of Text books and the stock keeping. This system is still new and it needs to be tested to understand its effectiveness. So far only the data being keyed-in and it will be fully utilized next year. ( 2007 ). It has easy data key-in system.
6. Evaluation of the Information System:
The Information system in use in my school has been evaluated on five
characteristics as shown in the table below.

The Ministry of Education has been very innovative and proactive in introducing this type of system with the aim of improving our educational management of Information with multi million ringgit systems. Unfortunately, there is no allocation for extra personnel to manage the system. So at the end, the system cannot be effectively utilized as it was planned and people involve in providing the data for this type system become very annoyed at redundant work of supplying data through filling up of forms every time a new information is needed. This should not be the case if we want to have a very reliable and effective system.
