Our favourite choice for sound amplification.
A songwriter's guitar is a very special instrument. It needs to respond to the "Muse" along with the artist and as any writer will tell you, the Muse is a capricious mistress. One minute she's demanding a bluesy walk down the big strings and the next a fiddle inspired jig ending somewhere north of the 10th fret. To label a songwriting guitar as "versatile" would be an understatement. Sonically it needs both a bright treble and an instantly available thumping bass - not an easy combination. Each string has to deliver distinct overtones and yet one can't hog the spotlight. The action and the neck need to have a tactile quality best described as "invisible". in short, a songwriting guitar is a very personal thing - not so much a tool as an extension of the artist. We're especially proud to introduce the Canadian Songwriter.
An acoustic guitar with a bright resonant treble usually gives up power at the low end. We wanted to overcome that characteristic. We wanted a strong projective bass and a bright crisp upper end. We also wanted it at an unheard of price for a solid wood guitar of this quality. In short we wanted it all - easy playability, versatile sound and a rocket price. We're thrilled to say we did it!
The Canadian Songwriter continues our quest to bring solid wood high end acoustic guitars to musicians at affordable prices. At $899.99 (including a professional grade hardshell case and an electric pickup) it redefines value.
Our dreadnought body (inspired by the iconic 1930s Martin D's) formed the foundation for the new guitar. It's been an astoundingly successful shape since we launched it. Mahogany was the obvious wood choice to for the back and sides. It is a wonderful tone wood for highlighting higher frequencies. How did we add back in the power in the lower registers? The secret is in the top wood. Cedar tops are our specialty. Really exceptional Cedar - the kind you need for really exceptional guitars - is expensive. Most guitar makers have to build a dealer markup into their prices so they often don't use the really good stuff. We're not constrained by expensive distribution so we use only top quality wood and hand select each book matched pair. The cedar top of the Canadian Songwriter has an open grain which works beautifully with Mahogany B/S. The combination of open grain top wood and light weight Indonesian Mahogany projects clear and strong bass frequencies.

Q: css position right out of range of view

#box_1 {
    position: relative;
    width: 200px;
    height: 200px;
    background: #ee3e64;
}
#box_2 {
    position: relative;
    width: 200px;
    height: 200px;
    background: #44accf;
    right: 200px;
}
#box_3 {
    position: relative;
    width: 200px;
    height: 200px;
    background: #b7d84b;
}

Why is the blue box out of range. Is it not specifying it's position from the right?

A: A positive value to the right offset shifts it to the left. Try a negative value or use left.
Explanation
When an element uses position: relative, the positioning offsets are taken with respect to the original location of the element within the content flow.
In this example, when you use right: 200px on #box_2, the right edge of the element is shifted by 200px to the right of the original right edge position of the element, so the element shifts towards the left.  If you use a negative value, then the shift will be towards the right.
You can achieve a similar effect by using left: 200px instead.
Reference: http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visuren.html#choose-position

#box_1 {
  position: relative;
  width: 200px;
  height: 200px;
  background: #ee3e64;
}
#box_2 {
  position: relative;
  width: 200px;
  height: 200px;
  background: #44accf;
  right: -200px;
}
#box_3 {
  position: relative;
  width: 200px;
  height: 200px;
  background: #b7d84b;
}

A: Relative >
This keyword lays out all elements as though the element were not positioned, and then adjust the element's position, without changing layout (and thus leaving a gap for the element where it would have been had it not been positioned)
Look at these:

#two { position: relative; top: 20px; left: 20px; }

But oh! the blessing it is to have a friend to whom one can speak fearlessly on any subject. with whom one's deepest as well as one's most foolish thoughts come out simply and safely. Oh, the comfort - the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person - having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are, chaff and grain together. certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then with the breath of kindness blow the rest away.

Matte GS, Connor KR, Liu H, DiNardo JA, Faraoni D, Pigula F. Arterial Limb Microemboli during Cardiopulmonary Bypass: Observations from a Congenital Cardiac Surgery Practice. The Journal of Extra-corporeal Technology. 2016;48(1):5-10.
Gaseous microemboli (GME) are known to be delivered to the arterial circulation of patients during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). An increased number of GME delivered during adult CPB has been associated with brain injury and postoperative cognitive dysfunction. The GME load in children exposed to CPB and its consequences are not well characterized. We sought to establish a baseline of arterial limb emboli counts during the conduct of CPB for our population of patients requiring surgery for congenital heart disease. We used the emboli detection and counting (EDAC) device to measure GME activity in 103 consecutive patients for which an EDAC machine was available. Emboli counts for GME <40 μ and >40 μ were quantified and indexed to CPB time (minutes) and body surface area (BSA) to account for the variation in patient size and CPB times. Patients of all sizes had a similar embolic burden when indexed to bypass time and BSA. Furthermore, patients of all sizes saw a three-fold increase in the <40 μ embolic burden and a five-fold increase in the >40 μ embolic burden when regular air was noted in the venous line. The use of kinetic venous-assisted drainage did not significantly increase arterial limb GME. Efforts for early identification and mitigation of venous line air are warranted to minimize GME transmission to congenital cardiac surgery patients during CPB.

DAWLATĀBĀDĪ, SAYYED ʿALĪ-MOḤAMMAD
DAWLATĀBĀDĪ,SAYYED ʿALĪ-MOḤAMMAD (b. Dawlatābād, 1341/1868, d. Tehran, Šawwāl 1341/May-June 1923), prominent politician and deputy of the Persian parliament. He was the third son of Ḥājj Sayyed Mīrzā Hādī Dawlatābādī, reputed to have been leader of the Azalī Babis (Tārīḵ-e bīdārī, ed. Saʿīdī Sīrjānī, 2nd ed., I, p. 649), and a younger brother of Yaḥyā Dawlatābādī. ʿAlī-Moḥammad received his first formal schooling in Najaf, where his father had gone to continue his own religious studies, in 1292-94/1875-77. His family then returned to Isfahan, where he studied with Mollā Moḥammad Kāšī and Jahāngīr Khan Qašqāʾī and then with Hājj Mīrzā Badīʿ and ʿAlam-al-Hodā Kalbāsī. It is unclear from the sources what intellectual currents these men represented and therefore the kinds of ideas to which ʿAlī-Moḥammad was exposed under their tutelage. Later, in Tehran, both ʿAlī-Moḥammad and his brother Yaḥyā seem to have been students of the philosopher Āqā Mīrzā Abu'l-Ḥasan Jelwa, suggesting the heterodox tendencies with which both have been identified (Dawlatābādī, p. 17; Dawlatābādī, Ḥayāt-e Yaḥyā I, p. 112).
The oppression of the prince Ẓell-al-Solṭān's government in Isfahan and his animosity toward the Dawlatābādī family (Dawlatābādī, pp. 13-15; Dawlatābādī, Ḥayāt-e Yaḥyā I, pp. 39-44, 111-17) did much to shape ʿAlī-Moḥammad's political outlook. He became active in the constitutional movement and a key figure in several important episodes. He seems to have played a role, through his friend the Ottoman ambassador Šams-al-Dīn Beg, in obtaining from the Qajar court accession to the demands of the clerics who had taken sanctuary (bast) in the shrine of Shah ʿAbd-al-ʿAẓīm in December 1905 (Tārīḵ-e bīdārī, ed. Saʿīdī Sīrjānī, I, pp. 357-59; Dawlatābādī, Ḥayāt-e Yaḥyā II, pp. 19-21; Šarīf Kāšānī, I, p. 33; see CONSTITUTIONAL REVOLUTION ii); he may also have participated in the exodus to Qom in July 1906 (Dawlatābādī, Ḥayāt-e Yaḥyā II, p. 71).
After going underground in the wake of the coup by Moḥammad-ʿAlī Shah (1324-27/1907-09) in 1326/1908 (Šarīf Kāšānī, I, p. 194), ʿAlī-Moḥammad emerged as one of the leaders of the Moderate party Ḥezb-e eʿtedāl during the Second Majles. Though bitter rivals of the Democrats (Ḥezb-e demokrāt), ʿAlī-Moḥammad and his colleagues joined them in forming the National defense committee(Komīta-ye defāʿ-e mellī) in the wake of Russian and British occupation of Persia during World War I (Dawlatābādī, Ḥayāt-e Yaḥyā III, pp. 120, 332). The committee, which became a provisional government, with ʿAlī-Moḥammad as an integral member, was based in Kermānšāh. From the small number of references to him in the memoirs of his brother Yaḥyā and Yaḥyā's own detachment from political parties in this period, it appears that the brothers were not closely associated in their public lives; indeed, there may have been some coolness between them (see, e.g., Ḥayāt-e Yaḥyā III, pp. 120-21).
ʿAlī-Moḥammad was elected to represent consituency of Lorestān in the Fourth Majles, which convened in 1299/1921; he served as deputy until his death two years later.

Bitcoin has begun to revive after the fall of life. We can not say that the positive momentum in the price of bitcoin is very serious right now. However, if the price breaks down to the $ 6,675 level, then the situation is pretty good.
According to Coinmarketcap, Bitcoin, the biggest crypto money, is currently at $ 6,450. The price of Bitcoin dropped to $ 5,800 on August 14th, the lowest level in the past 6 weeks.
Bitcoin dropped below $ 6,000 a day two days ago and dropped to $ 5,800, but that did not last long. Even Bitcoin was able to outperform 6,000 dollars in a very short period of time.
The increase in living after falling below the level of 6 thousand dollars can be considered as very important. Bitcoin managed to climb to the level of $ 6,600 the day we passed, which could be a sign that sellers are pulling out of the market and buyers who are waiting for the price to move in order to make a profit are also entering the market.
If we look at the hourly chart, we can see that Bitcoin adapts to the inverted shoulder-head-shoulder scheme needed to pass the increase.
Bitcoin managed to outgrow up to $ 8,500 in July, and many investors started selling at that time. The fact that the price is now above $ 6,675 may mean that the ongoing sales activity has been over since July. Exiting this level also indicates that the next target is $ 7,490.
When we look at the daily and 4-hour charts, we see that Bitcoin is likely to break this level in the next 24 hours.
As can be seen in this chart, Bitcoin has managed to break the falling trend line, which means that sales starting at $ 8,500 have stopped. We can say that the relative power index is in favor of Bitcoin (above 50.00).
The day we passed Bitcoin formed a reverse hammer bull mum and supported the candle, indicating that the bearish trend was over by Tuesday. If we look at this chart, we can say that Bitcoin is seeing $ 5,859.


A trip to the mystical island of Siquijor wouldn't be complete without a visit to their centuries-old Catholic churches. These churches provide a peek on the religious vehemence of Siquijornons in paying reverence to their town's patron saint. Moreover, these churches have been part of the rich history and culture of the province, hence, a visit to these churches is highly recommended. Here are some of the must-see churches in the island of Siquijor.
Upon entering the province, the Church of St. Francis of Assisi will greet you. Located in the capital town of Siquijor, it is one of the most photographed churches in the island as it is just located outside the port.
Constructed from 1795 to 1831, it is made mostly of coral stones and its bell tower was erected some meters away from the church. The roof is originally made of cogon and has been replaced by a tin roof.
Of course, I have a photo at the famous "Welcome to Siquijor" marker in the garden located just in front of the church.
Next is another century-old church, the Lazi Church and Convent dedicated to St. Isidore Labradore. Upon entering the streets of this town, you'll see the huge acacia trees that is said to be as old as the church.
Completed in 1884, it is considered as one of the few remaining Baroque Churches in the country, and a candidate for inclusion in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
Made of cut coral stones engraved with intricate designs, the church has a wooden flooring and steel ceiling. It's the first time I've seen a church like this.
We also climbed the bell tower which has numerous antique bells.
Across the church is the equally impressive, U-shaped two story structure Lazi Convent. Known as the biggest convent in the country (and probably in Asia), it is used to be a place for rest and recreation of the Friars.
A typical "Bahay na Bato" (stone house), with the ground floor made of thick stone layer and the second level made of hard wood. Now it is where the parish priest resides.
The National Historical Institute declared the church and convent as National Historical Landmarks.
At the town of Maria is the Sta Maria Church which is also made of coral stone. Built in 1880, it is dedicated to Nuestra Señora de Providencia (Our Lady of Divine Providence).

What picture I like the most is the first one.
That Lazi convent is spooky. The next time Jose Rizal's role is reprised, it should be shot in Siquijor. Cuz from the looks of your photos, the place has maintained its antiquity -- classic!
i like your skin, golden!! haha yun talaga napansin.
ito ang yaman ng siquijor. buti at nakadisplay na yung mary. pero pinalitan na nila yung bungo.
napakaganda! sana'y magawi din ako sa lugar na yan pero para na rin akong naglakbay dyan dahil sa mga larawan mo. Maraming salamat!
the name of the place itself seems to be old... as in aged, ancient.
but knowing that the different structures like the church has been preserved.
Nice! Buti naman pinapasok ka? I remember when I was in Bohol, di ako pinapasok kasi naka shorts lang ako. Bawal daw.
Sta. Rita de Siquijor is scary!
Beautiful old churches. they are indeed treasures of the city.
envy*** i wish i cud make a travel blog too, very informative, awesome!
your posts about Siquijor is driving me crazy..waaaaaaaaaah! gusto ko na talga tuloy magpuntang Siquijor!
It is always fun to tour churches. Pero sa latter part ng post mo may eerie feeling ewan ko ba waaa nakakatakot.
Natakot ako sa Mary.. hehe.. Maganda talaga ang nakakapunta ka sa maraming lugar. Hope sa susunod mong pupuntahan sama mo ako.. hehe.. first time ko dito.
We'll put it on our bucket list.
great to see the churches of Siquijor again... Lazi is my favorite... even the stinking smell of old wood... love it.
i don't understand why a lot of ignorant Filipinos deem Siquijor as home to aswangs and such when it has in fact a lot of churches. will definitely make plans to visit soon!

Natural Therapy.
Presumably there have always been "herbalists" and natural healers since the dawn of time.
Primates have been seen placing leaves on sore wounds to soothe them. Archaeological investigations show evidence of mankind treating disease thousands of years ago. We are now able to identify bacteria and food in ancient remains through DNA analysis. This has identified several different 'non food' herb species which suggests that ancient man regularly medicated himself.
Another example is Otzi, a body which was found about 10 years ago in the Swiss Alps when a warmer summer melted snows which had been in place for over 3500 years BCE. Walkers found the body of a middle aged man which was so well preserved that he has been the focus of much research. This body has arthritis and scars at points paralleling the acupuncture points we use today to treat arthritis. Early man would use remedies handed down through generations for healing wounds or treating with disease. Dealing with disease would have been an everyday necessity.
We know that acupuncture is over 4,000 years old as recorded in China and that herbal knowledge stretches similarly back into the pre- history era.
So when did 'doctor medicine' gain superiority? Who decided that they had the right to define medicine as opposed to non-medicine? Who made laws allowing doctors to prosecute anyone whom they had argument with? We know that the College of Physicians arrived as an elite group in 1518. We also know that to secure their position the group petitioned parliament repeatedly to allow them powers to take anyone else claiming healing knowledge to court.
Nearly all forms of commercial activity were controlled by guilds in those days, which gave social as well as political standing to their members.
The College of Physician was small but its influence was enormous as it was a group of privileged university students.
Historically there has always been mixed feeling towards doctors. (Proverb: The Physician is more dangerous than the disease.)
Ironically College members were examined not on medical understanding as we would know it but on the works of the Greek scholar Galen who had lived 1500 years earlier. Galen believed in balancing 4 humours related to Water, Earth, Air and Fire and believed in imbalances producing Cold, Heat, Dryness and Moisture. This is not dissimilar from early Chinese basic beliefs at that time.
The College had to make a series of attempts to ask parliament to ratify their powers. This parliament refused to do for about 100 years, as the alternatives to their services were seen to be at least as effective as their medicine and often more affordable. Herbalists became targets for the doctor's prosecution, if there was even one complaint against them, with or without foundation. The doctor's guild has been adversarial since their conception, regarding it as a necessity to prosecute competition whenever possible. In the days of the Round Heads and Royalists, of the Great Plague and the devastating Fire of London, of constant wars with France and uncertainty in so many of the basic necessities of life, it is understandable that these deep insecurities would produce a defensive protection of these educated men's position and incomes. This same defensive attitude although deeply entrenched is less understandable today when so many new ideas are being explored.
Perhaps old habits die hard!!!


Supplies for each card are listed below. Enjoy!!
These are all beautiful cards, Darlene! Thank you for the taking the time to show so many examples…I really appreciate it! I haven't bought any Distress Crayons yet but they look fun so I may have to try them!
Thanks Darlene for giving us such good examples. I have not really had the results I wanted with my Distress Crayons and now know some things I can do with them that will work beautifully. I also thank you for taking the time to work all this out for us!
I must say that, in all honesty, I just don't like this product at all, I mean, you did a fabulous job with this crayons but it looks like way to much trouble to get some nice results and it's a bit messy too.
I'm sticking with the distress markers and ink pads if I want to do the embossing or stenciling.
Thank you anyway Darlene for taking the time to do this video so we can see if this product will work for us or not.
Thank you for this video. I have some of these crayons, but haven't figured out what to do with them, so I really appreciated the video. I'm not really into mixed media and that seems to be the main use for these, via You Tube! I have tried to use them as a colouring medium, but when I blended with water, it didn't look great. Now I know to just use my fingers and not use water too much!
I'm wondering how these might compare to SU's watercolor crayons? I haven't tried these techniques with those yet — I really need to dig them out and play with them again. But I don't have gelatos or distress markers, so wouldn't be able to compare. I didn't know if you might still have watercolor crayons (or if you ever had them — I can't remember and haven't done a search for them yet as I write this).
Thanks so much Darlene!! I LOVE these techniques! I've had 3 packs of these just sitting here for months! Haven't even tried to use them. Now that I've watched your video, I have all my stencils and embossing folders out with my distress crayons! Yay!
Wow! I am so impressed with your comparisons. I love all three cards. As it so happens my Distress Crayons arrive home (Australia) this week with my daughter's friend who insisted that she bring something back from the USA for me. Can't wait now to givre this technique a go. Thanks Darlene.
Yup…nope, I won't be buying these. I am so glad you did a review as YouTube videos are too short and don't make any negative comments about the product (they are of course promoting it). I would like to know how sore your hand was after blending them with your fingers. Seems like too much work so I will stay with my distress inks and an sponge applicator. Thanks for taking the time to show us! ?
Actually, it wasn't bad at all – the crayons are really smooth, so the finger blending is easier than with the gelatos. It is, however, more work than just ink blending.
This video was so helpful for me as I've been contemplating buying these crayons. I think I'll give them a try. Thx Darlene!
I wish I had seen this before I bought the sets. lol I have a load of Gelatos and really like them.
Nice and bright results but SURPRISE I don't feel tempted to purchase these.
Thanks for your honest comments and demonstration Cheers ..

Q: How to plot data for several signals, one above the other?
Following this question.

How can I command gnuplot to draw this plot:

(from the bottommost example on this page).
I guess I need to do something similar to what is being done here.  But what
exactly?
Eventually I want to build a simple waveform viewer, that will
get the binary data for several signals and will draw all of them one
above the other, just like the example. Maybe you know a script or a
tool that already does it ?

A:
Not sure if this response will be of relevance anymore but since I wasn't able to find the answer elsewhere I thought I should share this with anyone else who may be stumbling across this page:
You can use the data style "steps" to achieve what you would like. The step style maintains your data value until the next sample.
You will have two ways of setting this style. Either

*

*As default for all plots using the following command before using the plot command

set style data steps

*On individual traces like

plot 'data_ks.dat' using 1:4 title columnhead, '' using 1:($5+2) title columnhead, '' >using 1:($6+4) title columnhead with steps

In the example in the second solution I have added a value to some of the datastreams to offset them on the y-axis. You can off course also add the individual datastreams to their separate plot using the multiplot command.
The title for each block is assumed to be present in row 1 of your datafile.

A: much as I value gnuplot, may I suggest ploticus at http://ploticus.sourceforge.net ?
have a look at the gallery: http://ploticus.sourceforge.net/gallery/index.html
edit: I kinda ignored that fact that you want to build something, and therefore need a C++ example or such. Have a look at audacity: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
The track display code - displaying tracks above each other - might just be what you are looking for.

We Will Teach You the History of Pedagogy
Since in Greek agogos means "leader", a paidagogos was a slave who led boys to school and back, but also taught them manners and tutored them after school. In time, pedagogue came to mean simply "teacher;" today the word has an old-fashioned ring to it, so it often means a stuffy, boring teacher. The word pedagogy, though, is still widely used, and often means simply "teaching". And pedagogic training is what everyone majoring in education receives.
Examples of pedagogy in a Sentence
Some of the presentations, a few too many for comfort, lapsed into the familiar contortions of modern pedagogy. — Alex Ross, New Yorker, 14 & 21 July 2003 The idea that pedagogy should be judged according to race is absurd on its face, but the fact that they saw their relationship with me and with the school itself in those terms should have given me greater pause than it did. — Gerald Early, Lure and Loathing, 1993 Since no textbooks existed, the professor refused to profess, knowing no more than his students, and the students read what they pleased and compared their results. As pedagogy, nothing could be more triumphant. — Henry Adams, The Education of Henry Adams, 1907
Recent Examples on the Web Related Stories The scientists hope this information will help change pedagogy going forward—think dinosaurs with feathers versus outmoded depictions without. — Caroline Delbert, Popular Mechanics, "Five Birds Have Changed What We Know About How Animals—and Planes—Fly," 25 Nov. 2019 The initial assessment of how teachers and students are doing with this brave new pedagogy is due later this year. — David Holahan, courant.com, "Connecticut Science Center: Where learning is fun and serious business, too," 11 July 2019 The system wants to consider what pedagogy — or the method and practice of teaching — looks like in a contemporary classroom, Alisauckas said. — Catalina Righter, baltimoresun.com/maryland/carroll, "Carroll school system unveils instructional technology plan — going beyond just buying devices," 28 Oct. 2019 In order for that to happen, lesson planning, curriculum, pedagogy, and classroom culture all become part of UDL as well as learning spaces. — Kate Mcgregor, ELLE Decor, "Classroom Design Is the Next Frontier in Universal Design," 23 Oct. 2019 Its pedagogy suggests how the past might be reframed and made intelligible. — Dan Chiasson, The New Yorker, "Reginald Dwayne Betts's Poetry After Prison," 7 Oct. 2019 His pedagogy was unremarkable, his method cruel, his behavior — influenced by a growing addiction to alcohol — abominable. — Tim Page, Washington Post, "Beethoven: The genius who broke all the rules," 16 Aug. 2019 Like Kotter, Leguizamo understands teaching as a form of stand-up, but his pedagogy is more unruly. — Los Angeles Times, "Review: For John Leguizamo, class is back in session. 'Latin History for Morons' hits L.A.," 9 Sep. 2019 Pulido's expertise lies in Chicanx studies, sacred worlds, material cultures, community studies, and emotive pedagogy (learning is associated with creativity and emotionally distinct experiences). — San Diego Union-Tribune, "Someone San Diego Should Know: Alberto Pulido," 29 July 2019

Resources for Additional Information
The Department of Commerce is committed to operating all its communications and transactions with individuals and organizations in an open and transparent way. Social media and Web 2.0 (SM/W2.0) services are an increasingly important avenue for stakeholders and members of the public to interact with the Department in an efficient, effective, and transparent manner.
SM/W2.0 TECHNOLOGIES:
SM/W2.0 services encompass many technologies, including XML feeds, wikis, blogs, social networking sites, discussion forums, collaborative research Web sites, comment features on news and video Web sites, and other mechanisms. Social media services allow the user to interact directly with the Web site or other users. The result is that Web users are able to communicate simultaneously, directly, and instantaneously with all other users on the Web site. Commonly used social media services include YouTube®, Flickr®, Facebook®, Twitter®, and Instagram®.
SM/W2.0 technologies also present new and unprecedented challenges to the security of the information technology (IT) networks and systems that Commerce and its operating units use, as well as complicate the protection of personally identifiable information (PII). Commerce's and other Federal agencies' information systems are targeted by persistent, pervasive, and aggressive threats. These threats may be directed against the network infrastructure or IT systems, as well as records or information in the systems, especially PII or other sensitive information. The rapid development of Web 2.0 technologies and their emerging capabilities and uses present new and ever increasing risks that require continuing vigilance by IT security personnel and employees who use SM/W2.0 services.
PURPOSE AND GOALS:
The purpose of this policy is to provide guidance for operating units and Commerce employees to take full advantage of SM/W2.0 technologies while, at the same time, protecting Commerce and its employees by mitigating risks inherent in using these services.
This policy conforms to and implements the following:
Guidelines for Secure Use of Social Media by Federal Departments and Agencies that were adopted by the Chief Information Officers (CIO) Council and issued in September 2009.
President's Memorandum on Transparency and Open Government, calling for openness in Government and the establishment of a system of transparency, public participation, and collaboration, January 21, 2009.
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Memorandum M-10-23, Guidance for Agency Use of Third-Party Websites and Applications, June 25, 2010.
National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) Bulletin 2011-02, Guidance on Managing Records in Web 2.0/Social Media Platforms, October 20, 2010.
OMB's Digital Government Strategy, May 2013.
United States Office of Government Ethics' LA-15-03: The Standards of Conduct as Applied to Personal Social Media Use, April 2015.
While the following section discusses specific requirements for Department employees and operating units, each requirement is applicable to all Department operations.
(1) DEPARTMENT EMPLOYEES:
The following are general guidelines for Department employees assigned official responsibility for operating an official account or contributing to a SM/W2.0 Web site, whether that site is hosted internally by the Department (or an operating unit) or an external commercial, academic, nonprofit, or other government agency, on behalf of the Department or an operating unit.
Department employees using SM/W2.0 technologies in an official capacity must do so only on Department-approved accounts and may only use official e-mail or other contact information for the creation and management of those accounts. In addition to helping the Department track how many accounts it possesses, using Department-approved accounts will ensure that the Department knows who is responsible for each account it uses. In the case of services that do not require accounts for the creation of a Department presence, employees should follow the service-specific guidance available on the Commerce Web Advisory Council's Social Media Website.
In general, Department employees may only post from Department-approved accounts information that represents official agency positions (i.e., not personal opinion). However, if a posting concerns a fundamental research communication as defined by the Department's Public Communications Policy (DAO 219-1) and the posting is likely to be misinterpreted as an official Department position, Department employees must clearly state that they are providing their own personal opinions and not those of the operating unit, the Department, or the Federal Government.
Department employees should conduct themselves in a professional, courteous, and honest manner in all public communications about or related to their Government work, whether online, in person, at public meetings, or in other settings.
When posting a comment related to Department work to a public Web site, Department employees must identify themselves with their Department affiliation and/or official title.
Posted information should be accurate and factual. Although there is often a tradeoff between speed of communication and accuracy, employees speaking in an official capacity should take appropriate steps to ensure that the information that they provide is correct, and whenever feasible, to correct inaccurate information about Department work (especially on Department Web sites) that is brought to their attention.
All social media updates that are posted by Department employees, or written by Department employees for dissemination or use by an outside organization, must explicitly identify the Department as the source of the content. This requirement applies to all content authored by Federal employees and contractors of the Department. Examples of "outside organizations" may include cosponsors, stakeholder groups, media organizations, and SM/W2.0 sites. Further, when representing the Department online, Department employees must not engage in discussions of opinion about the Department's programs; focus only on facts to avoid the perception that the Department is engaging in propaganda. Cite sources when providing facts.
Department employees may not post any unauthorized personally identifiable information on an SM/W2.0 Web site. Some PII may be subject to the Privacy Act and may not be released unless consistent with the provisions of the Privacy Act. Questions concerning whether employees may release PII may be directed to the CPO or the operating unit Privacy Act Officer. The improper release of PII or other sensitive information may result in civil or criminal penalties.
Department employees may not improperly use or post materials protected by copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, data rights, or related protections for intellectual property. Proper use may require obtaining written permission from the owner of such information. The Department's Office of the General Counsel can assist employees in obtaining these permissions when necessary. Additionally, employees should exercise diligence with respect to the Department's and their operating unit's intellectual property, in logos, slogans, trademarked names, etc. Third-party use of Departmental emblems or logos requires pre-approval in accordance with DAO 201-1, Approval and Use of Seals, Emblems, Insignia and Logos.
Department employees and operating units must not endorse commercial products or services. Department employees should not post commercial advertisements or otherwise engage in activities that might lead to a conflict of interest, appearance of endorsement, affiliation, or authorization, or otherwise lead the public to believe that your operating unit supports the views, products, services, etc. of third parties. (When considering demonstrating support for local/community efforts or organizations, please contact the Office of the General Counsel to ensure that support complies with relevant Department and ethics guidance.)
Department employees may not include surveys, polls, questionnaires, etc., on official SM/W2.0 Web sites unless the questions have received Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Paperwork Reduction Act clearance. The Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) prohibits certain information collections by the Department without prior approval by OMB. While OMB has determined that some uses of social media are not considered information collection under the PRA, please contact the Office of the General Counsel to determine if the PRA applies to a specific use.
Department employees' use of SM/W2.0 services must not include requests to contact a member of Congress, a jurisdiction, or an official of any Government (Federal, state, or local) to favor or oppose any legislation, law, or appropriation because these activities are prohibited by the Anti-Lobbying Act.
Department employees may not solicit consensus advice from the public using SM/W2.0 technologies. The Federal Advisory Committee Act prohibits agencies from receiving consensus advice from de facto committees or groups who are not made up entirely of Federal employees.
(2) GUIDELINES FOR USE OF SM FOR OPERATING UNITS:
Department Web sites, pages, etc. that contain postings by an operating unit or the public require diligent monitoring.
Because monitoring and filtering of Department Web sites, pages, etc. may give rise to public criticism, operating units are required to use either the Office of the Secretary's comment policy or develop and post their own comment policy approved by the Office of the General Counsel. Operating units should post commenting guidelines prominently, when technically able to do so, and apprise public users of it regularly. Operating units using SM/W2.0 technologies must prevent the posting of or immediately delete postings by the public that contain:
Comments regarding a political party or a candidate in a partisan political campaign (a campaign in which candidates are identified by political party);
Requests to contact a Member of Congress or official of any government, to favor or oppose any legislation, law, or appropriation;
Advertisements, endorsements, or promotions; and
Vulgar or abusive language, personal attacks of any kind, or offensive terms targeting individuals or groups.
All social media updates that are posted by operating units, or written by operating units for dissemination or use by an outside organization, must explicitly identify the Department as the source of the content. This requirement applies to all content authored by Federal employees and contractors of the Department. Examples of "outside organizations" may include cosponsors, stakeholder groups, media organizations, and SM/W2.0 sites. Further, when representing the Department online, operating units must not engage in discussions of opinion about the Department's programs; focus only on facts to avoid the perception that the Department is engaging in propaganda. Cite sources when providing facts.
Operating units must ensure that the content maintained on their SM/W2.0 sponsors' Web sites, especially PII and other sensitive information, is secure and adequately safeguarded from unauthorized disclosure or destruction. The records must be retained consistent with the Department's records retention requirements. NARA Bulletin 2011-02, Guidance on Managing Records in Web 2.0/Social Media Platforms, provides additional guidance.
Operating units interacting with the public through SM/W2.0 technologies must ensure that such interactions require and generate the least amount of PII possible from their users. To that end, and whenever feasible, operating units must edit and actively manage their SM/W2.0 Web site or application settings to make sure that only the minimum amount of PII necessary to effectively use such technologies is being generated/collected. OMB Memorandum M-10-23 establishes requirements for a PIA, which must document the agency's decision process. Agencies should discuss these details as appropriate in the privacy notice posted to the SM/W2.0 technology, as described in OMB Memorandum M-10-23.
Department Web sites must not collect any personal information from children (under the age of 13) in violation of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act.
When posting information using SM/W2.0 technologies, operating units should ensure and maximize the quality, objectivity, utility, and integrity of posted information (including statistical information), and ensure that measures are in place to allow for the correction of information not meeting that standard. This is required under the Department's Information Quality Act Guidelines.
Operating units are required to ensure that people with disabilities or limited English proficiency have an accessible version of official content posted online, in compliance with Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and Executive Order 13166, Improving Access to Services for Persons With Limited English Proficiency. Materials posted to SM/W2.0 services also must be posted in accessible formats on the official Department Web site; non-governmental SM/W2.0 sites may not be the sole location where content is posted. This will ensure that people with disabilities, or who have limited English proficiency, always have an accessible version of the content and that the official version of the content is located on a Department Web site.
If the SM/W2.0 technology allows the public to respond to official postings, the Department Web site also must provide visitors with the ability to communicate with the Department so that members of the public do not have to register with or provide personal information to third-party Web sites that may require registration or the provision of personal information. The Department Web site must provide an alternative way, e.g., e-mail address for members to communicate directly with the Department without providing personal information to a third-party Web site.
When visitors to an official Department Web site are redirected from the Department site to a third-party site, the visitors must be notified that they are leaving the official agency site, e.g., when a visitor to a Commerce site is redirected to view a video on YouTube®. The Department's notification should include an exit disclaimer stating that (1) the Department cannot attest to the accuracy of the information provided by a non-Federal Government site; (2) the link to the site is provided only for reference; and (3) the link to the site does not constitute endorsement of any product, service, organization, company, information provider, or content. Further, Department employees' use of links to such third-party sites must be consistent with their operating unit's linking policy. This is required by OMB Memorandum M-05-04, Policies for Federal Agency Public Web Sites, and OMB Memorandum M-10-23, Guidance for Agency Use of Third-Party Websites and Applications, June 25, 2010.
The Department may not rely on SM/Web 2.0 technologies as the exclusive means of distribution of information. Original materials posted to SM/W2.0 services also must be posted on official Government Web sites, and alternative, non-electronic forms of information must be made available upon request, pursuant to OMB Circular A-130, Management of Federal Information Resources.
(3) HATCH ACT IN THE WORKPLACE:
Department employees are prohibited by the Hatch Act from engaging in political activity on Government premises or using Government resources. Political activity includes any activity directed toward the success or failure of a political party or a candidate in a partisan political campaign. Thus, official use of social media may not include any reference relating to a political party, candidate, or campaign, including links to political websites or organizations.
Additional information is available from the OGC Ethics Law and Programs Division Web site, by phone at 202-482-5384, or via e-mail at ethicsdivision@doc.gov.
Commerce employees should consult the list of Commerce approved Social Media and Web 2.0 Web sites and use the Web-based Commerce Social Media Application process (registration required) to apply for SM/W2.0 accounts. The process is overseen by the Office of the Secretary's Office of Digital Engagement, with input from operating unit's public affairs and chief information offices. The Office of General Counsel will be consulted as necessary.
The following are general guidelines for Department employees' unofficial or personal use of SM/W2.0 technologies. Please note that these guidelines for unofficial or personal use do not apply to Department contract employees, except to the extent that they are using Department resources to provide information to the public.
(1) PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL COMMUNICATION:
Pursuant to the Department's Public Communications Policy (DAO 219-1), Department employees on Government or non-Government Web sites, who wish to post or upload original material that is not publicly available using SM/W2.0 technologies that relates to the programs or operations of their operating unit and that is related to their official duties, must submit their communication for review to their supervisor or a public affairs officer or other appropriate communications staff at their operating unit. A personal account must never be the first point of release for public documents.
Employees should be mindful of blurring their personal and professional life when using SM/W2.0 technologies. Employees should not establish relationships with working groups or affiliations that may reveal sensitive information about their job responsibilities.
Pursuant to section 7 of DAO 219-1 (Public Communications), researchers are free to participate in Fundamental Research Communications with the media and members of the public regarding their research in their unofficial capacity on personal social media accounts, but they are not required to do so. Given the nature of the scientific process, the role of the scientific community is to draw scientific conclusions based on available data. Department researchers may draw scientific conclusions based on research related to their jobs and communicate those conclusions to the public and the media in a Fundamental Research Communication. However, if such a conclusion could reasonably be construed as representing the view of the Department or an operating unit when it does not, then the researcher must make clear that he or she is presenting his or her individual conclusion and not the views of the Department or an operating unit.
Although Department employees are encouraged to learn about and experiment with these tools in an unofficial capacity, they should be mindful that any information posted on the Web, even when on-site privacy controls are used on SM/W2.0 sites, could become public.
Do not disclose any information obtained on the job that is not already publicly available. This includes national security (classified) information, personally identifiable information, proprietary or business confidential information, pre-decisional information, or similar sensitive information.1
The Commerce Internet Use Policy allows employees to use their Government computer and SM/W2.0 for their personal use, provided that access is permitted by the operating unit CIO and use of equipment is minimal. Additionally, use of SM/W2.0 must not interfere with office operations or involve commercial activities (profit-making or business), partisan political activities, or sexually explicit communications.
(2) EMPLOYEE TITLE USE:
You may use your title when it is self-evident that you are not posting in an official capacity, such as posting a resume or listing your employment history on a social network profile.
Use of your job title in social media profiles must be considered within the totality of the circumstances to determine whether a reasonable person with knowledge of the relevant facts would conclude that the government sanctions or endorses your communication.
Relevant factors to consider in making the determination include:
Whether you state that you are acting on behalf of the government;
Whether you refer to your connection to the government as support for your statements;
Whether you prominently feature your agency's name, seal, uniform or similar items on the social media account or in connection with specific social media activities;
Whether you reference government employment, title, or position in areas other than those designated for biographical information;
Whether you hold a highly visible position in the Government, such as a senior or political position, or are authorized to speak for the Government as part of your official duties;
Whether other circumstances would lead a reasonable person to conclude that the government sanctions or endorses your social media activities; or
Whether other circumstances would lead a reasonable person to conclude that the government does not sanction or endorse your social media activities.
Ordinarily, an employee is not required to post a disclaimer disavowing government sanction or endorsement on the employee's personal social media account. Where confusion or doubt is likely to arise regarding the personal nature of social media activities, you are encouraged to include a disclaimer clarifying that your social media communications reflect only your personal views and do not necessarily represent the views of your agency or the United States. A clear and conspicuous disclaimer will usually be sufficient to dispel any confusion that arises.
(3) HATCH ACT ON PERSONAL ACCOUNTS:
The Hatch Act prohibits Federal employees from soliciting, accepting, or receiving campaign contributions, including through the use of SM/W2.0 technologies. This prohibition includes hosting or posting to a Web site that includes a link for making contributions to a political party or a candidate in a partisan election, that is, a campaign in which candidates are identified by political party.
Further, Department employees are prohibited by the Hatch Act from engaging in political activity on Government premises or using Government resources. This restriction includes using personal or Government devices for such purposes. Political activity includes any activity directed toward the success or failure of a political party or a candidate in a partisan political campaign.
The use of SM/W2.0 services must conform to other applicable Commerce policies, including the following:
Department's Public Communications Policy (DAO 219-1) , provides guidance for employees for communicating with the public about Commerce programs and activities and describes the role of the Office of Public Affairs (OPA) in ensuring that public communications are open and accurate, April 30, 2008.
Web Policies and Best Practices developed by the Commerce Web Advisory Council and adopted by the Commerce CIO and Director of Public Affairs for implementation Commerce-wide, provide general guidance and requirements for the display of content on the Web.
Commerce Internet Use Policy, provides general guidance regarding Internet use by Department of Commerce personnel (employees, contractors, associates, and others) who are authorized to use Commerce resources, December 19, 2008.
RISK ASSESSMENT AND AUTHORIZATION FOR USE:
Before any SM/W2.0 service or technology is approved for use on any Commerce network or system, the responsible operating unit Chief Information Officer (CIO) must assess whether the users in the operating unit should be authorized to use or access a particular SM/W2.0 technology using established risk management methodologies. The relevant CIO should determine whether any risk-based limitations on access or usage by users within that operating unit are warranted prior to authorizing the use of a particular service or technology. The risk assessment should be conducted in accordance with the risk management principles in NIST Special Publication 800-30 (as amended), Guide for Conducting Risk Assessments, and other NIST Publications that apply. Additional guidance for CIOs is in the Guidelines for Secure Use of Social Media by Federal Departments and Agencies.
A CIO's authorization to use a particular SM/W2.0 service or technology applies only to the operating unit for which the CIO is responsible. Depending on the level of IT security measures in place, a CIO may approve use of or access to a SM/W2.0 service on particular operating unit networks or systems but not others. Each CIO is responsible for maintaining a current inventory of SM/W2.0 technologies approved for access from their operating unit network(s) and systems.
TERMS OF SERVICE AND PRIVACY:
After assessing the risks, the relevant CIO must verify that the SM/W2.0 service provider terms of service agreement has been approved by the Department of Commerce, including the Department's Office of the General Counsel, before authorizing Commerce employee use of that service or technology. Approved service agreements are on the Commerce Web Advisory Council Social Media Web site.
OMB M-10-23 requires agencies to conduct a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) in all situations in which any personally identifiable information (PII) will become available to the agency. OMB M-10-23 also requires agencies to update agency privacy policies and post specialized privacy notices on the actual SM/Web 2.0 service itself, to the extent possible. Each responsible operating unit CIO must coordinate these activities with the Departmental Senior Agency Official for Privacy.
The Commerce CIO is responsible for oversight and monitoring of implementation of this policy by operating unit CIOs.
SM/W2.0 present IT security challenges beyond those of static Web sites, and it is essential to adhere to applicable Federal and Department IT security requirements, including the following:
The Administrative Point of Contact (APOC) for a SM/W2.0 account is the individual who is solely responsible and accountable for the administration, password control, and access management of the account. An APOC may be anyone approved by the operating unit's Office of Public Affairs, Office of the Chief Information Officer and the Office of Digital Engagement through the Social Media Application process.
APOCs should not use the same password for more than one account. Many SM/W2.0 sites allow account administrators to assign administrative rights to other users. When available, this feature should be used.
APOCs must not use the same password for logging in to their Commerce or operating unit network that they use to access any SM/W2.0 site. Failure to use different passwords could compromise the security of the Commerce or operating unit network.
APOCs should use two-factor authentication for all accounts where it is available and possible.
Even in cases where SM/W2.0 Web sites do not enforce strong password requirements, strong passwords should be used in accordance with CITR-009: Password Requirements for password length, expiration, and complexity, e.g., use of upper and lower case letters and special characters.
APOCs should assess and accept risk for accounts prior to putting content on a service and work with IT security community to complete a full risk assessment at the enterprise level. This is separate from accepting the Terms of Service.
APOCs document areas where policy cannot be followed, e.g. using a government account to manage Facebook sites when Facebook does not allow individuals to have more than one account at a time.
APOCs should only follow links and download files from known and secure sources. Any file downloaded from a SM/W2.0 site must be virus scanned before opening. Upon receipt of a suspicious message, link, or file to download from a known person, APOCs should verify that the item was actually sent by the person before virus scanning and opening it.
SM/W2.0 accounts must be monitored on a regular basis. In the event pages are hacked or defaced, a report must be sent immediately to DoC Computer Incident Response Team (CIRT) or the operating unit's IT Security Officer. After reporting the incident, the APOC for the account must contact the software or service provider to regain control of the account and restore the page. Passwords will be changed immediately after any hack or page defacement.
