With the quickly approaching shortest day of the year on December 21, it is no wonder that most cultural and religious winter holidays include festive lights. The lights of course are not only a metaphor for hope, remembrance and a sense of wonder. They are also our desperate attempt to chase away the night.
Many of the lights have a special significance of course. Christmas tree lights, the Menora of Chanukah and the Kinara of Kwanzaa are some of the better-known examples. There are also symbols of light included in Winter Solstice, Yule, Eid, St. Lucia's Day, Yalda, HumanLight, Hogmanay and Karachun. Festivus of 'Seinfeld' fame is a notable exception but only really relates to a few hard-core fans.
With all of this beauty around, it is amazing how many awful photos are taken in December. Here are a few tips to make your holiday lights pictures sing.
The lights you find are not nearly as bright as you think. You will need a tripod or other camera support to prevent shake and blur. A small tabletop model works great but you can also use a beanbag, a table or chair or even a car roof in a pinch. My personal favourite is a Manfrotto Super Clamp (/www.manfrotto.com) with a ball head attached-small, sturdy and bomb proof. Using the self timer also helps as it gives the camera time to settle down before the shutter opens and will make for a sharper picture.
If you are outside shooting house lights or other displays, the most important thing to consider is the time of day. Ideally you want to have some light in the sky - these days that means somewhere between 4:30 to 6pm. By having that slight glow, the edges of the house or the branches of the tree are defined but the lights still shine. Any earlier and the lights get washed out, any later and the lights become pinpoints with no reference. Shoot a photo every few minutes until you are happy with the mix of the darkening sky and lights.
To shoot indoor pictures of a Christmas tree or candles, turn out any overhead lights. A small lamp in the corner could add some depth to the picture but any overpowering lights will take over from the subtleties of the seasonal ones. A wide picture showing the entire room darkened with the tree or candles being the only source can be evocative, powerful and delicate all at the same time.
As for camera controls, it is a bit of a balancing act. If you can, set your camera white balance to incandescent — usually it is represented by a light bulb. Holiday lights, candles and regular light bulbs all have around the same colour temperature (somewhere in the 3000 kelvin range). The auto white balance setting may work but most other settings will give you an orange cast.
If you only have automatic controls on your camera, try the night setting or even the fireworks setting. If you have manual controls you have much more control. Try an ISO of 200, a shutter speed in the 1/4 of a second range and an aperture of f11. Then it is time to start experimenting. One good trick is to use a large depth of field in the f22 range. The optics of the lens will give the appearance of a starburst from each light source. A touch of nose grease on the lens will also give this effect as well as a slightly foggy 'Olde Tyme' appearance. Just remember to clean the lens after. Nose grease is just the oil from the side of your nose-pinch your nose and then rub your finger over the glass of the lens.
If you are including people in the photos, consider using candlelight on the faces. A bit tricky in the choreography but perhaps a small crowd can be gathered behind the menora. Those holding candles at a caroling service provide their own lighting. Be careful that no eyebrows are set alight!
At some point you will need to use your flash. Again it is a delicate balance. Essentially you want to use the same camera settings you would use for the lights alone, just turn on the flash. The important thing to remember is that the shutter speed controls the brightness of the holiday lights, the slower the shutter speed, the brighter the lights. The flash and the aperture control the exposure of the people. An automatic setting that will work for you is the half moon with lightening bolt or the party setting.
Keep the subjects closer to the camera so that the light from the flash won't spill over onto the holiday lights. Most cameras have a flash exposure control that is usually a button or control with a +/- next to a lightening bolt. Invariably you will need to use the minus button to keep the faces from being washed out. You will want to change the colour temperature to the flash setting or daylight (around 5200k for the keeners out there) or else you will have blue people in the picture.
The most important thing you can do is to shoot a lot of pictures and experiment with the exposure. Pixels are free and you never know when you might catch eight tiny reindeer in the corner of a frame.

Welcome to Ascension Lutheran Church
WELCOME! This community of faith is seeking to make your "welcome" ever more real and new for persons like yourself, whether you hear it on Sunday mornings in our sanctuary complete with an outstretched hand, or read it on a screen as you relax at home, or in a coffee shop. It is a genuine welcome, backed up with the kind of honest openness and friendliness that refreshes the soul, emboldens the heart, and delights the mind.
"You are welcome at Ascension!" We understand that not everyone who is seeking a connection with something deeper and more fulfilling will be able to physically come to Indian Harbour Beach and participate in this congregation's multiplicity of programs, from service to education and from fellowship to worship. So...we have created a website where you can connect! Here are the resources, the links, and conversations you need to feel welcome, and we hope, appreciated and understood.
Thanks for dropping by our website. We hope you'll come back again soon, and often. Bookmark us, and add us to your home screen. We'll keep it up-to-date.
God's Blessings!

Youth Happenings
ELCA National Youth Gathering: Detroit, July 2015
Registration and financial aid request window opened May 15, 2014.
- Students, young adults, and adults over the age of 19 and 1 year out of high school can apply to serve as a volunteer. The volunteer application process opened May 15th; several of our youth qualify.
- Registration is $325, if we sign up early. This does NOT include air fare, food, lodging, ground transportation, or donations collected at the event.
- The ratio is 1:5; this is lower than past gatherings. This just means the more kids who want to go, the more adults will have to commit to going.
- Ascension has about 8 youth who will be eligible to attend. With this current number, at least 1 male and 1 female chaperone is needed, and funding for everyone. As a commitment to the event, parents/guardians are asked to contribute the registration cost of $325.

Servant Ministry
The change collection of $190 during the month of October 2014 was donated to the Brevard Humane Society, a non-kill shelter. The change Sunday collection for November 2nd, will be donated to the Brevard Alzheimer's Foundation. This particular opportunity for ministry allows Ascension Lutheran members to help many non-profit agencies and groups in Brevard County.
Additionally, your donations of gift cards and monetary gifts to the Pastor's Discretionary Fund assists families with basic needs.
Advent Opportunity
Ascension's Serving Ministries has once again selected the Salvation Army Sue Pridmore House for homeless mothers and children as our church project for the season of Advent. They were so appreciative of our generous donations last year. Please help us to make this year even better for the badly needed supplies for the residents' use. Items needed this year are: plastic garbage pails for the bathrooms; large towels and wash cloths; white pillow cases; blankets; bathroom rugs; quilts for twin beds; cleaning supplies; and toiletries, which include bar soap, shampoo, cream rinse, deodorant, sanitary products, lotions, body wash, toothpaste and razors. Cleaning supplies and toiletries can be purchased at a Dollar Store. They also need used professional clothing for women.
This campaign will begin Sunday, November 30th, the first Sunday in Advent, and end Sunday, December 21st, the fourth Sunday of Advent. A table will be set up in the narthex for collected donations. If you have any questions or would like additional information, please contact Beatrice Showman
Food delivery to the Sharing Center is necessary for the donations collected each week. Please consider making this your ministry. the Sharing Center is located at 17 East Hibiscus Blvd. near the intersection of Babcock and Hibiscus in Melbourne.
Mortgage Burning Luncheon Celebration
All were invited to attend a catered lunch on May 4th after worship service to celebrate the retirement of Ascension's 26+ year old debt on our facilities. As part of the worship service, there was a formal Thanksgiving at the Retirement of a Debt, followed by a catered lunch, culminating with a ceremonial Burning of the Mortgage. There were 91 in attendance for this very special event. Thanks be to God!

The "it's our kids' world" attraction, August 31, 1987, 11:03 a.m.
Cruise into scenes in which the barely mobile youngsters of the universe groan about opportunity and beg for money as a demonstration of the reality of hell.
The "it's our kids' world" theme song is one of the most annoying on earth. It's famous lyrics begin:
it's a world of hunger, a world or fears,
its a world of food, its a world of leers,
there's so much that we wear,
that its time in the air,
it's our kids' world after all.
Please don't try Princess Mode

Mount Pleasant, MI (SportsNetwork.com) - Terrel Hunt threw for a touchdown and ran for three more, as the Syracuse Orange routed Central Michigan, 40-3, in non-conference action from Kelly/Shorts Stadium.
Hunt had 175 yards passing to go along with 92 on the ground for the Orange (2-0), who were coming off a bye last weekend following their season-opening win over FCS school Villanova a week earlier. Adonis Ameen-Moore finished with 106 yards on nine carries in the victory.
Cooper Rush threw for 183 yards on 18-of-34 passing as the Chippewas (2-1) suffered their first loss after a 2-0 start. Rush was also sacked five times.
Chippewas kicker Brian Eavey accounted for the only points of the first quarter with a 26-yard field goal that capped a seven-minute, game-opening drive.
It was all Syracuse from there. After Ryan Norton tied the score at 3-3 with a 23-yard field goal early in the second quarter, the Orange took a 10-3 lead at the 10:43 mark when Marqez Hodge scooped up a loose ball and returned it 36 yards for a score. Eric Crume got into the backfield on the play and sacked Rush, forcing the fumble.
Syracuse extended its lead to 17-3 on a four-yard pass from Hunt to Brisly Estime with just under two minutes to play in the half.
The Orange defense came up with another big play in the opening minutes of the second half, as Cameron Lynch came free and dropped Rush in the end zone for a safety.
Hunt pushed the lead to 33-3 with third-quarter touchdown runs of one and three yards. He capped the scoring with another one-yard TD in the final minute of the fourth quarter.
Of the Chippewas' 217 yards of total offense for the game, 66 game on the opening drive.
The addition of the Simple Ratings System to the NCAA's selection of the FCS playoffs was welcomed across the division because of the prospect of improved black and white results.
Kasey Kahne will continue to drive for Hendrick Motorsports through the 2018 Sprint Cup season, signing a three-year contract extension on Thursday.

Advertisers Keep Spending More On Paid Search In Q1, CTRs Jump 23 Percent YoY
Paid search in the U.S. saw another quarter of positive growth in Q1, rising 8 percent year-over-year according to IgnitionOne's latest quarterly report, which looks at paid search performance of campaigns across its management platform that's used by major brands and agencies.
Paid search clicks rose a modest 5 percent and click-through-rates (CTR) were up 23 percent. Impressions fell again — dropping 15 percent year-over- year. The drop in impressions, according to the report, is due to the increase in mobile searches where there is less ad real estate per query. However, these mobile searches are highly efficient for advertisers in those limited spots the effective CPM for mobile ads rose 27 percent year-over-year.

Thursday And-1 links: More Carmelo/Garnett fallout
Jan 10, 2013, 3:01 PM EST
Here is our regular look around the NBA — links to stories worth reading and notes to check out (stuff that did not get its own post here at PBT) — done in bullet point form. Because bloggers love bullet points.
• The punishment has come down, Carmelo Anthony is sitting out the Knicks Thursday night game for going after Kevin Garnett post-game by the team bus — he "just wanted to talk to him" — after KG does what he does and said something that got under Carmelo Anthony's skin. Allegedly a comment about 'Melo's wife La La. Tyson Chandler said that what KG said crossed the line. Of course, what's he going to say, he's got to have his teammates back.
• Doc Rivers says KG didn't say anything about Anthony's wife. What's Doc going to say, he's got to have his players' back.
• Amare Stoudemire is just bad at defense, and here is the breakdown. By the way, it's not even close to being all on Mike D'Antoni.
• Who has Steve Nash assisted the most in his career? Stoudemire. Who else could it be?
• A good look at the Clippers "Tribe Called Bench." That depth is a real regular season advantage for the Clippers, but it will be interesting to see how Vinny Del Negro handles it in the playoffs when rotations generally shorten.
• Wednesday was the one-year anniversary of Jeff Green's heart surgery. Good to seem him just out on the court and playing.
• Former Grizzlies' player Lester Hudson was arrested for reckless driving. From the Memphis Commercial Appeal: "Lester Hudson, 28, was seen driving his cousin's car west on American Way when he slammed on the brakes and spun out in the intersection of Mt. Moriah, according to a police affidavit. Other cars at the intersection swerved to avoid a collision, officers reported. Hudson then allegedly smoked his tires, spun the car in a circle several times, and sped off northbound on Mt. Moriah."
• John Wall has jumped shoe brands to adidas (he had been with Reebok, which is owned by adidas). "I've enjoyed my time with Reebok and I'm grateful for everything we accomplished the last few years," said Wall. "Now, I'm excited to return to the court soon and begin my new partnership with adidas. They've changed the game with new technology and style and I can't wait to be a part of it." Wall joins Derrick Rose, Dwight Howard and other under the adidas brand.

UPMC expands global reach with deals in England, Japan
Send this to a friend
The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center is expanding its global reach with a contract to help increase cancer treatment services in England and a second agreement to develop a residency program for family medicine in Japan.
Under a three-year agreement, UPMC will assist Royal Berkshire NHS Foundation Trust, part of the United Kingdom's National Health Service, in enhancing its cancer center at Royal Berkshire Hospital in Reading while creating satellite centers, comparable to the hub and spoke system UPMC created in western Pennsylvania. UPMC will be placing a minimum of four senior managers at Royal Berkshire to oversee operations while hospital doctors provide radiation, medical and surgical oncology care, according to Charles Bogosta, president of UPMC's International and Commercial Services Division.
Although the total number of satellite centers hasn't been determined, Bogosta said the first should open within two years, with up to four more added later. Royal Berkshire treats 100 to 150 cancer patients daily and a typical UPMC satellite center sees between 30 and 150 patients a day, he said.
Separately, UPMC reached a two-year contract with Iizuka Hospital to provide resident teaching, curriculum and health center design advice. The agreement is expected to produce a freestanding family medicine residency program, health center and enhanced basic clinical training. Terms were not disclosed for either deal.

Integrys wins Chicago electricity contract, largest of its kind
Send this to a friend
- Staff Chicago Business Journal
Chicago-based Integrys Energy Group has been picked to provide electricity for about 1 million city residents, according to the Chicago Tribune.
The Tribune reported that Mayor Rahm Emanuel chose Integrys over Constellation NewEnergy, a subsidiary of Exelon, and that the City Council will vote on the contract Wednesday. The Tribune also said that Integrys has agreed to one of Emanuel's key demands: no electricity it supplies for Chicago will come from coal plants. Currently, the Tribune said, coal provides about 40 percent of Chicago's electricity. The deal is expected to give Integrys about $300 million in yearly revenue and will last through May 2015, according to the report.
In its analysis of the contract, the Chicago Sun-Times said city customers can expect to save up to 25 percent off their bills between February and June of 2013, but that rates will not be finalized until after the contract is approved. The Sun-Times also reported that Integrys is required to beat or match Commonwealth Edison's rates, which are scheduled to go down in June.
ComEd will still provide all services with customer contact, including billing, according to the Sun-Times.
Integrys (NYSE: TEG) stock was down 0.19 percent to $53.27 in early trading. Over the past 52 weeks it has traded as high as $61.92 and as low as $50.06.

Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission meeting roundup:
• Adopted a change in its boating regulations intended to provide additional safety to passengers when a motorboat is operating at greater than slow, no-wake speeds. In these instances, the regulation prohibits individuals from riding outside the passenger carrying area or from riding on bow decking, gunwales, transoms or motor covers. The amendment becomes effective Jan. 1.
• Approved a notice of proposed rulemaking which restricts the sale, introduction, and transportation of all live crayfish in Pennsylvania. As part of the proposal, licensed anglers would be permitted to harvest up to 50 crayfish per day for fishing and consumption as long as the heads are removed behind the eyes upon capture.
"The replacement of native crayfish by introduced crayfish – like the invasive rusty crayfish – represents a significant threat to aquatic communities," said Dave Lieb, PFBC invertebrate zoologist and non-game biologist. "Exotic crayfish populations grow quickly and have negative effects on amphibians, mussels and fishes. Stringent regulations will help prevent additional introductions of invasive crayfish."
• Approved a final rulemaking to reduce creel limits for American Shad from six to three on the 2.9-mile section of the Delaware River from the Commodore Barry Bridge to the Delaware state line. The changes make the Commonwealth regulations consistent with New Jersey regulations. The three-fish creel limit is already in effect on the Delaware River upstream of the Commodore Barry Bridge. The change goes into effect on Jan. 1.
• Proposed a change to the stocking policy for Class A wild trout, which would permit stocking to continue on certain Class A waters that meet specific conditions. Currently, stocking is prohibited on all Class A waters, which represent the best of the naturally reproducing trout fisheries. The PFBC has identified nine waters which meet Class A standards, but are currently stocked and receive heavy angler use.
The proposed policy amendment would allow stream sections which are designated as Class A after 2013 to remain eligible for fingerling stocking or preseason-only stocking of adult trout by the PFBC or cooperative nurseries, as long as certain conditions are met. The stream section must have been stocked during the year immediately prior to its Class A designation, and angler use in the stream section must equal or exceed the 75th percentile statewide of angler use for the opening weekend of trout season as documented by PFBC staff.
Bobcat, river otter plans open for review
Two wildlife-management plans drafted recently by the Pennsylvania Game Commission have been made available for public review.
Plans for managing river otter and bobcat populations in Pennsylvania can be found on the Game Commission's website, www.pgc.state.pa.us. Those going to the website can access the plans by clicking on a button marked "Accepting Public Comment" near the top of the home page. Both plans can be accessed from the next page that will appear, and comments can be submitted from that page, as well.
Each management plan charts a 10-year course for managing the species, and the plans have not yet received final approval. The public can comment on either or both plans, and those comments will be taken into consideration by the Pennsylvania Game Commission.
The 60-day period for submitting comments ends on Nov. 29.
Those wishing to submit comments can do so in a variety of ways. Email accounts have been set up to receive comments for each plan. Those wishing to submit comments regarding the bobcat management plan can send them by email to email@example.com. Those wishing to submit comments regarding the river otter management plan can send them by email to email@example.com.
Those who do not have access to email, or who otherwise wish to submit their comments by letter, can mail them to the Game Commission. Send comments on the bobcat plan to Bobcat Comments, Pennsylvania Game Commission, Bureau of Wildlife Management, 2001 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, Pa., 17110-9797. Comments on the river otter plan can be sent to Otter Comments, Pennsylvania Game Commission, Bureau of Wildlife Management, 2001 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, Pa., 17110-9797.
Individuals wishing to send comments by mail on each plan are encouraged to send them in separate envelopes, each marked for the appropriate species.
Both the bobcat and river otter could be considered among Pennsylvania's wildlife success stories.
The plan sets out to maintain bobcat populations at desired levels, conserve bobcats for future generations and ensure sustainable bobcat harvest opportunities.
The river otter management plan likewise aims to ensure otter populations remain healthy and self-sustaining.
The plan sets out to sustain otter populations in areas of suitable habitat and, when appropriate, develops guidelines to assess the feasibility of a river otter harvest and implement a harvest-management program.
More information on river otters, bobcats and other Pennsylvania wildlife species can be found at the Game Commission's website.
Also at "Accepting Public Comment" is information on the Commission's proposal to upgrade the bald eagle from "threatened" to "protected" status in Pennsylvania. This page also can be used to submit comments on this proposal.
Comments on the proposal to upgrade the bald eagle's status can be sent by email to email@example.com or can be mailed to Eagle Comments, Pennsylvania Game Commission, Bureau of Wildlife Management, 2001 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, Pa., 17110-9797.

$500 Reward for Ratting Out Gun Owners in People's Republic of New York
Too bad the warrantless nighttime raid on the Shawn Moore household took place in New Jersey and not Andrew Cuomo's authoritarian dystopia across the Hudson. The snitch who called it in might have been paid for his service to the State:
Known as the "Gun Tip Line", New Yorkers can call a toll free hotline to alert police if they believe someone they know has an illegal gun. The call would be picked up by state police and local law enforcement would be notified if the tip seemed reliable.
If there was an arrest the tipster would receive as much as $500.
"This initiative seeks to turn neighbor against neighbor and use their own tax dollars to pay for the $500 reward," said Assemblyman Steve McLaughlin, R-Melrose.
That's how things are done under totalitarian regimes. The government turns the citizenry against itself. Why should the USSA be any different?
If only the arrest of Nathan Haddad had come on a call to Cuomo's tip line. Someone may have made a few bucks out of the decorated combat veteran being thrown in jail on felony charges because empty magazines were found in his car.

Karnataka have almost sealed their spot in the final of the Ranji Trophy after only 36.1 overs of play was possible against Punjab in the penultimate day of their semi-final match during which they consolidated their lead to 177 runs.
Punjab produced an inspired bowling display to bowl out Gujarat for a paltry 127 and take the vital innings lead on the second day of a Ranji Trophy Group A match, here on Friday.
A disciplined bowling display helped Punjab dismiss Odisha for 307 in their second innings and notch up a convincing an innings and 48-run victory with a bonus point in a group A Ranji Trophy match on the fourth and final day here on Wednesday.
Kings XI Punjab coach Darren Lehmann wants his batsmen to score more runs in the remaining matches of the ongoing Pepsi Indian Premier League (IPL).
Kings XI Punjab captain Adam Gilchrist said that the franchise have a better squad this year which gives him the confidence to do well in the sixth edition of the Indian Premier League.
Pace trio of Manpreet Gony, Sandeep Sharma and Siddarth Kaul shared six wickets between them as Punjab restricted Railways to 193 for seven in their first innings at stumps on the opening day of their Ranji Trophy Group A match here on Saturday.
Amitoze Singh and Manpreet Gony shared six wickets between them as Punjab restricted Hyderabad to 244 for seven on day one of their Group A Ranji Trophy league match at the PCA stadium, here on Friday.
Railways were staring down the barrel at 89 for five after Punjab rode on stand-in skipper Uday Kaul`s sedate 131 to post 366 all out on day 2.
Gony led a superb bowling display with a five-wicket haul as Punjab recorded a comprehensive eight-wicket victory over a hapless Orissa
Gony snapped the wickets of Nitin Saini (0), Ankit Rawat (32), Pardeep Sahu (1) and Joginder Sharma (5) and also engineered a run out of Rahul Dewan (6) to break Haryana's backbone.

Goals from Gaston Ramirez and Jos Hooiveld gave Southampton a comfortable 2-0 win over Bristol City in the League Cup third round on Tuesday.
A young Southampton side overpowered their League One opponents with a first-half effort from Ramirez and a late header from Hooiveld.
The Uruguay international's early strike gave the Premier League team a perfect start, but their progress was not secured until Hooiveld's 83rd-minute goal.
Sean O'Driscoll made four changes to the City side that lost 3-2 to Swindon Town on Saturday, with Louis Carey (illness) and James O'Connor (thigh) among those left out, as Stephen McLaughlin was handed his full debut.
Mauricio Pochettino, meanwhile, changed his entire team from the 1-0 Premier League win at Liverpool on Saturday, with both Guly do Prado and Tadanari Lee making their first appearances of the season.
Jack Cork, who is yet to feature in the league this season, was back in the side after playing in the 5-1 second-round League Cup win over Barnsley and the 24-year-old was immediately involved as he looked to slip in Ramirez only to see his attempted pass cut out.
But Ramirez did get on the scoresheet soon after, as he opened the scoring on 15 minutes with a stunning volley from James Ward-Prowse's flick-on.
Pochettino's side were well in charge of the game and could have doubled their advantage soon after when Lee was denied by City goalkeeper Elliot Parish.
The visitors then had a chance of their own as Jay Emmanuel-Thomas' shot was parried away by Kelvin Davis.
And they could have drawn level before half-time when Derrick Williams headed over a free-kick from Brendan Maloney.
Guly then had the best chance of the early stages of the second half but he failed to guide his header from Ward-Prowse's corner past the alert Parish.
Southampton struggled for rhythm in the second period though and the home crowd became increasingly restless as City pressed for an equaliser, with a good cross from Emmanuel-Thomas just failing to find the boot of McLaughlin.
But Pochettino's side then confirmed their place in round four when Dutchman Hooiveld diverted Ward-Prowse's inswinging corner home.

David Cameron urged to exempt the NHS from TTIP deal after unions claim it is at risk from being sold to American corporations
Unions are concerned that the deal could make it difficult to reverse failed privatisations of health services
Jim Armitage
Jim Armitage is Business Editor of The Independent and former Deputy City Editor of the Evening Standard
Thursday 17 July 2014
Unions today claimed the NHS was under threat by the giant US-EU trade agreement known as TTIP despite assurances from negotiators that it was exempt.
The Unite union in particular has been concerned that the deal, which will sweep away swathes of local regulatory safeguards, could make it difficult for future governments to reverse any failed privatisations of health services.
This is because of a part of the TTIP proposals that make it possible for companies to take legal action against countries if they act in a way that would jeopardise their future profits. The plan is to create international courts that would hear such disputes.
However, the EU's Trade Commissioner Karel De Gucht this week said the NHS and other public services will be exempt, echoing his chief negotiator Ignacio Garcio Bercero's pledge.
But Unite remains unconvinced. It pointed to a letter from Mr Bercero to the Parliamentary group on TTIP in Westminster in which he admits health services are "in principle within the scope of these agreements and ongoing negotiations."
The letter goes on to explain that the negotiators are "confident" EU member states will still be able to manage their health systems independently.
However, the union remains concerned the assurances are not adequately categorical.
Its general secretary, Len McCluskey said: "There is no doubt the NHS is at risk because of TTIP.
"David Cameron must now make clear he intends to exempt the NHS from TTIP, otherwise our health service could be irreversibly sold to American corporations.
"He must listen to the growing concerns in communities up and down the country. Why won't he answer the question? Are we going to use our veto to exempt health from the EU US trade agreement?"
Friday sees the end of the current round of TTIP negotiations in Brussels.
TTIP was a key pledge from Mr Cameron during Britain's presidency of the G8 last year. EU governments and the US say it will create jobs and boost the economy by sweeping away trade restrictions.

Topic: Compost and Mulch, Propagation, Seeds and Seeding
Title: Allelopathc qualities in sunflowers
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:I have a sunflower patch in the corner of my backyard (Maximilians, common sunflower, and silverleaf sunflower)and would like to use the spent stalks (sans the seedheads) as mulch in the fall. However, I've read that sunflower is allelopathic to other plants. Is this only while they are actively growing, or would mulching with them inhibit growth of other plants? Are there certain plants that would or would not tolerate a sunflower-based mulch?
Sunflower seed may be allelopathic in some situations, and certainly sunflowers will freely sprout everywhere, often with the help of birds, who are no doubt delighted that you are contributing to their diet. You should never use the seeds as mulch without first composting them for at least a month. The heat of the compost will help to leach out the toxins in the sunflower seeds. If you are going to mulch with stalks and leaves, removing the flowers and seeds, you would probably not need to compost first. Sunflowers grow so fast and so tall that they often will shade out weeds at their feet and/or kill them with the seed toxins. Most of the information I found on sunflower seeds damaging plants involved plants under bird feeders. The discarded seeds and hulls can build up to quite a depth if you are a devoted feeder of wildlife, and will certainly smother just about anything that tries to come up. In your case, you might just let the birds (finches are especially fond of sunflower seeds) enjoy the seeds still on the plants, then clean up the leftover debris and discard it NOT as mulch, at least until it has been composted.
