Security Tip
Don't leave your laptop in the car - not on the seat, not in the trunk. Parked cars are a favorite target of laptop thieves, so don't help them by leaving your laptop unattended. If you must leave your laptop behind, keep it out of sight.


IT Tip
WORD/EXCEL
Close all open Microsoft Word and/or Excel files by holding down the shift key and clicking "File" and then "Close All".


IT Sustainability Tip
The benefits of electronic communications mean a single email can replace 10 print outs, letter headed paper, envelopes and so on.
