Some tips for lowering sodium
Keep it fresh! Choose fresh fruits, vegetables and other unprocessed foods
such as ground provisions more often. Canned fruits, vegetables, breads,
biscuits and most processed foods contain higher levels of sodium.
Practice salt-free cooking! Use herbs, spices and salt tree seasoning blends to
bring out the best in your cooking.
Hat more foods naturally low in sodium. Fruits and vegetables contain low
levels of sodium and offer many other health benefits.
Look for hidden sources of sodium such as powdered seasoning (such as
MSG); cup soup, bouillon cubes, soy sauce, pickled processed meats which
carry high levels of sodium.
Avoid sprinkling salt on food at the table.
Use v2 die salt diat is in the recipe.
Read food labels. Find low sodium options. Check the nutrition facts panel
for sodium content per serving.
Get help from Dietitians or Nutritionists. A Registered Dietitian or a Registered
Nutritionist is qualified to help you mana ge chronic nutrition-related conditions and
provide expert guidance that will help you improve your food choices to promote
wellness. The care provided by these professionals is highly individualized, and tailored
to meet your specific needs. There are no two persons who are the same. Nutrition
intervention must be tailored to each person.
The slogan for the Ministry of Health- Healthy Lifestyle Programme states Celebrating
Health: It's all about what I put in, what I keeptout and how much I do. It is appropriate
for you to invest now in your health with good nutrition and increased physical activity
so that tomorrow you will reap longevity and improved quality of life.

Dear Mr. Golding:
I had the privilege of meeting a Special Constable Candice Britton who I must say impressed me
with not only her knowledge of the force for her age but also told showed me that the Police
Force I once k new is still in existence and there are still officers who will make the
Commissioner of Police extremely proud.
I happen to in the Downtown Parade area on March 12,2012 when an incident occurred between
a police man and a woman which almost went too far, Miss Britton who was in plain clothes
intervened, identified herself and to my knowledge became mediator to the two.
I must congratulate and commend her on her exemplary behaviour and display of professional
values.
1 feel obligated to write this letter and hope with attributes like Miss Britton's will be used to help
and motivate. Jamaica's youth people.

CONDOLENCE
We note with deepest regret the untimely passing of Sergeant Leachman Gurdon of the Matilda's Corner
Police Station who complained of feeling ill whilst on the job and retired Senior Superintendent Anthony
'Tony' Hewitt who was killed by gunmen.
Our sympathies and condolences to their family, colleagues and friends during this dark period. We
mourn their loss with you. May their souls find eternal peace.
TAKING CARE OF OUR INTERNAL CUSTOMERS
It is important to understand and implement strategies, policies and programs that promote
professionalism capped with superb customer service when dealing with our external customers. We
emphasize politeness, courtesy, respect for individuals and their rights. These are fully endorsed by the
Jamaica Police Federation; however, in addition to those let us bring to you, our working professionals
and quality service providers, the concept of the INTERNAL CUSTOMER.
nil Collab^tiO
Internal customers are the most important stake holders within a company. An internal customer can be
employees, a supplier or a contract manufacturer. So how do you take care of internal customers? Here are
3 simple ways to do so:
1) Care and concern - The primary objective of any organization should be to maintain employee welfare.
Care and concern is evident with the facilities provided to internal customers as well as the provisions and
overall the work culture prevailing within an organization.
EDUCATING YOU! ENLIGHTENING YOU! EMPOWERING YOU!
z) Cooperation and collaboration - It is very necessary to cooperate, coordinate and collaborate with
internal customers to keep them happy and active. Internal customers have their own demands and they
should be cooperated. Ultimately, this brings about harmony in the organization and the organization is
placed above self by the internal customer.
3) Communication - Communication between internal customers (mostly top, middle and lower
management) is critical Any changes occurring within the system, good or bad should be communicated.
Not only changes, but also frequent communication of the latest happenings in the organization, should
be communicated to internal customers. Several companies resort to using weekly or monthly newsletter
which gives internal customers updates about their company as well as their sector keeping the internal
customers united. (The Police Federation newsletter is on stream will soon be published).
In keeping with the code of ethics, references are derived from the Jamaica Constabulary Cor** Values
and Principles hand book.

SURVIVINGON A SHOE STRING BUDGET
We have Tepublislie^ this topic for the information of our members.
Recent' items now covered under the General Consumption Tax (GCT) have not escaped
our%b^^ar^re^d^yf^^^rrpbcket8:.v During our island wide tour, following our 69th Annual Jdint Central
<>bhfeYences, we brought to the notice of our members the financial dilelrnma 'that fades bur* everyday
living and spending.
T ('■;/■'{
We must asdmit that in this time of financial crisis, balancing our salaries and sticking to a budget is a
herculean task. It should not.escape our attention that there are persons in positions, whotreceive far less
than we do and are forced to survive.
There are .several ibasic things that can assist in our financial survival. We ask that you do not overcommit your salary before you receive it, as the effect will be that you are ) < V v i EDUCATING YQU!
ENUGHWNINGYOUl EMPOWERING YOUt
living from pay cheque to pay cheque. Do not leverage your salary, meaning; do not use your salary to
secure 'demand* or 'pay day loans'. Remember, financial independence is something hard won and should
not be surrendered lightly.
Pay down your debt as it is infinitely cheaper to pay down a debt that is costing you eighteen percent per
annum (180/0 p.a.) than it is to save the money and earn six percent (6o/0) interest. Those of us with credit
cards debts, which can cost more than fifty percent per annum (500/0 p.a.), and those with outstanding
amount owed to loan sharks, need to find a way and consolidate with reputable financial institutions such
as our own Jamaica Police Cooperative Credit Union.
The age old adage states "it is not what you earn but what you save", cannot be overemphasized." Let us
use the analogy of tithes paid by Christians. Christians pay tithes in addition to their offering which is ten
percent (io«/o) of their income dedicated to the work of God. That is a sacrifice that they are willing to
make, we should be guided by this and make contribution to our savings, however small it is. We are
imploring you to make the commitment to save ten percent (10%) of your salary.
Many of our colleagues are in need of financial counselling as borrowing becomes a habit compared to
drug addiction. We are in a period of wage restraint which means that there will not be an increase in
salaries. We must find legitimate, creative means of survival as inflation continues to erode our spending
power. Let us endeavour to follow these basic principles, make a budget and stick to it and you will find
your financial comfort zone.
We can't all be rich, but all of us need not be poor.

DID YOU KNOW TRIVIA?
In the 1400's a law was set forth that a man was not allowed to beat his wife with a stick no
thicker than his thumb. Hence we have "the rule of thumb".
Chewing gum while peeling onions will keep you from crying.
Men can read smaller print than women can; women can hear well.
It is impossible to lick your elbow.
The State with the highest percentage of people who walk to work: Alaska.
The average number of people airborne over the US any given hour: 61,000.
Intelligent people have more zinc and copper in their hair.
The first novel ever written on a typewriter: Tom Sawyer.
The San Francisco Cable cars are the only mobile National Monument.
Each king in a deck of playing cards represents a great king from history: Spades - King David
Hearts-Charlemagne, Clubs- Alexander the Great, Diamonds - Julius Caesar
If a statue in the park of a person on a horse has both front legs in the air, the person died in
battle. If the horse has one front leg in the air the person died as a result of wounds received in
battle. If the horse has all four legs on the ground, the person died of natural causes.
Bulletproof vests, fire escapes, windshield wipers, and laser printers were invented by women.
Honey is the only food that doesn't spoil.
In Shakespeare's time, mattresses were secured on bed frames by ropes. When you pulled on the
ropes the mattress tightened, making the bed firmer to sleep on. Hence the phrase ....................
"Goodnight, sleep tight."
It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000 years ago that for a month after the wedding, the
bride's father would supply his son-in-law with all the mead he could drink. Mead is a honey beer
and because their calendar was lunar based, this period was called the honey month, which we
know today as the "honeymoon".
In English pubs, ale is ordered by pints and quarts... So in old England, when customers got
unruly, the bartender would yell at them, "Mind your pints and quarts, and settle down." It's
where we get the phrase "mind your P's and Q's"
Many years ago in England, pub frequenters had a whistle baked into the rim, or handle, of their
ceramic cups. When they needed a refill, they used the whistle to get some service. "Wet your
whistle" is the phrase inspired by this practice.
