 If your out of tips, rehash some old ones in a different way.
Repetition, Repetition!

Hello Everyone,

The most dreaded aspect of my job is coming up with a "Security Tip" for
our company internal newsletter every week.  Each tip must be geared
toward a general audience of 3000+ people.
  So far I have done tips on strong passwords, doing control-alt-del
when leaving your desk, screensaver passwords, protect laptop from theft
(ie don't leave in back seat of car, amazing how many do that...), clean
desk policy, backing up data, and dealing with spam, spyware and
phishing.  But I'm at my wit's end to come up with more. 
 Googling 'security tips' brings up a million sites, but they all
regurgitate the same basic ideas I just mentioned.
Any suggestions?
