Interested in developing embedded systems? Since they don't tolerate inefficiency, these systems require a disciplined approach to programming. This easy-to-read guide helps you cultivate a host of good development practices, based on classic software design patterns and new patterns unique to embedded programming. Learn how to build system architecture for processors, not operating systems, and discover specific techniques for dealing with hardware difficulties and manufacturing requirements.
Written by an expert who's created embedded systems ranging from urban surveillance and DNA scanners to children's toys, this book is ideal for intermediate and experienced programmers, no matter what platform you use.
"Making Embedded Systems is the book for a C programmer who wants to enter the fun (and lucrative) world of embedded systems. It's very well written—entertaining, even—and filled with clear illustrations."—Jack Ganssle, author and embedded system expert.
Elecia White has worked on DNA scanners, inertial measurement units for airplanes and race cars, toys for preschoolers, a gunshot location system for catching criminals, and assorted other medical and consumer devices. She is the founder of Logical Elegance, an embedded systems consulting company based in San Jose. Elecia has developed strong skills in signal processing, hardware integration, complex system design, and performance. Having been through FAA and FDA certification processes, she understands the importance of producing quality designsand how they lead to quality implementations. Elecia has spent several years in management roles but enjoys hands-on engineering and the thrill of delivering excellent products. While continuing to provide leadership and mentoring, she prefers to focus on the technical aspects of a project. A graduate of Harvey Mudd College in Claremont, CA, Elecia enjoys sharing her passion for science, engineering and interesting gizmos, particularly how these things can make the world a better place.

The animal on the cover of Making Embedded Systems is a great-eared goatsucker.Great-eared goatsuckers are members of the family Caprimulgidae, informally referredto as "nightjars." The term "goatsucker" stems from an inaccurate belief that the birdsdrink milk from goats; it is not to be confused with "chupacabra," the fabled cryptidbelieved by some to inhabit the Americas and drink the blood of goats. The name "greatearednightjar" is more commonly used today.Great-eared nightjars inhabit subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests in areas ofSoutheast Asia, including India, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia,Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, the Philippines, and China. They are crepuscular, meaningmostly active at dusk and at night, during which time they satisfy their diets of flyinginsects and moths and sound their distinctive calls: a sharp "tissk," followed by a twosyllable"ba-haw."Great-eared nightjars are characterized by pronounced ear tufts, which, in addition totheir average length of 16 inches, make them more conspicuous among nightjars. Theirsoft gray and brown plumage resembles their preferred habitat, leaf litter and bracken.They lay their eggs either directly on bare ground or in leaf-litter nests on the ground.Nightjar nestlings have been observed to be completely silent and motionless, which,in addition to their leaf-colored plumage, may help protect them from danger whilenesting.The cover image is from Wood's Animate Creation. The cover font is Adobe ITC Garamond.The text font is Linotype Birka; the heading font is Adobe Myriad Condensed;and the code font is LucasFont's TheSansMonoCondensed.

Concise introduction on creation of generic embedded systems
By Jim the Runner
from Santa Clara, CA
About Me Developer, Maker
Comments about oreilly Making Embedded Systems:
If you are going to meet both hardware and software, or very embedded software (not Android phones, more like AVR microcontrollers or the buzzy internet of things, or even real-time industrial microcontrollers), let this book be your introduction, a digital mentor.Exceptionally clearly written, yet not boring. Topics are well crafted, and concise C code samples and diagrams are provided.It does not, however, delve into intricacies of PCB design, actuator programming or anything too deeply. You will probably need one or two more books for the accents of your specific application.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Do we really need to read this book
By electra
from milton keynes, UK
About Me Designer
I was looking for a book introducing how to design embedded system and my attention was catched by the Elecia's.Unfortunatley in the end the taste is sour. I wasn't expecting to get the Book, but neither the sort of book for dummy where it is written everithing without saying nothing. The editor should think about it. I will not buy another book from them.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Almost There
By Silver Dragon
from Honolulu
About Me Developer
The idea behind it is good, but the delivery is a little shakey. Context code would be very helpful. Also, this book is aimed mainly at software developers (this is not a plus or minus, it just makes the book not for beginners). I said that this book is only for Intermediate and Experts because there are parts throughout that might not make any sense to an absolute beginner and are extremely technical. I would only recommend this book to a friend because it is the first of its kind. However, a second edition with code examples that indicate proper code organization would be great.

Great for background & working examples
By Jefro
from California
About Me Community Manager, Educator, Linux geek, Maker, Technical Writer
I was extremely interested in reading this book, partly because it falls in my area of expertise, or at least I thought from the title that it would, and partly because I frequently find gaps in my knowledge base that books like this can fill. On this second point I could not have asked for a better volume. The breadth and depth of the examples and explanations gave me a greater understanding of many of the nuances of embedded systems programming than I had to begin with. The book is well-written and very well organized, and could easily be used as a textbook.My only regret with the book is that it focuses solely on the interface between hardware and software, and does not cover embedded operating systems at all. At first I found this disappointing, and I still think some options could be discussed in an appendix, but I understand that is not the purpose of the book - and quite honestly, I learned so much from it that I can see why the author chose not to include that discussion.I would highly recommend this book to anyone learning embedded systems programming who needs to know why an operating system is (or isn't) a good idea for a given project or hardware solution. You should know this stuff before attempting to choose an operating system, which I think is the author's point, and it is very well made.Disclaimer - I received a review copy of the book.

It's what you need to know
By Douglas Duncan
from Lyons, CO
'Making Embedded Systems' by Elecia White is a great book for those who want to get an insight into what is needed to build these systems. Elecia does her best to explain each step in a way that's understandable to those new to the field, although there were a couple places that I had to reread a couple times to understand what she was saying due to the technical nature of the subject. This book was a great read and Elecia's writing made it seem like you were sitting there with her seeing how she works through issues. Since this is more an overview of the topic, she does not go overly in depth into everything you need for building these systems, she does cover things adequately to give you what you need to know.Elecia walks through the different areas of embedded systems and what one needs to think about and look out for while designing their system. Being that you will be writing software for a system that most likely doesn't have an operating system, she explains how to get the most out of your software on a system where the resources are small. Throughout she gives pointers on what you can do to squeeze out those last few (critical) clock ticks or how to reduce your code size when your code base is just a little to big to fit into memory.At the end of each chapter she lists some resources that help go deeper into some of the subjects that she covered, and then she ends with an interview question and what she (or another interviewer) might look for in the responses given. Even in this portion of each chapter there is content that makes you think.Overall this was a great book and the author is clearly passionate about what she does. If you're new to the embedded systems world, this is a good place to start, and I highly recommend this book.

Worth a place on your bookshelf
By Ken Brown
from Cupertino, CA
This is an excellent book for someone who's written software before, but is new to writing software for products which don't have an operating system. It assumes you know C, but it has a good introductory section on dealing with hardware at what I call the "connect-the-dot" level - enough to keep a hardware engineer honest, but not enough for you to threaten to take their job.It presents a disciplined, systematic approach to designing software so that the engineer who does the next revision of your project isn't cursing (too much) what you've done, and has a fighting chance to reuse what you've written. This kind of discipline is often lacking, especially on small projects where you may be the only software person, and your hardware engineer thinks they know more about writing software than you do (most don't, but many will try to convince your manager otherwise). Every engineer knows that they could have done a much better job than the engineer who preceded them, but the engineer that doesn't consider the design concepts that are presented is probably kidding themself. Using these concepts will keep your hardware engineer from threatening to take your job.The book also has a lot for the more experienced engineer who may need a jumpstart on dealing with a type of peripheral that they may not have dealt with before, or who may need to think about how the gizmo they are designing will communicate with the gizmo that's being designed next door. There's a surprising amount of depth in covering issues you might not otherwise think about (until it's too late). If I have one criticism, it would be that some topics are dealt with in great detail, while others are only covered at a high level. Maybe that's just the price of trying to keep inside a page budget.Finally, the tips on job interview questions are entertaining and useful no matter which side of the interview table you find yourself.Full disclosure: I have worked with the author at 2 different companies, and provided her with comments on an early draft of the book.

Full of wisdom
By JLangbridge
from Nantes, France
Disclaimer: I was given a free copy to reviewBooks on embedded systems come and go, and over my ten years of experience I've seen quite a few. Most books will only go into detail about one particular subject; programming techniques, specific hardware or sometimes even a how-to for one specific situation. This book is different, for one an author goes into detail on just about everything.Making Embedded Systems by Elecia White is not a bible, for some people it will not go into enough detail for specific parts of making embedded systems, but the domain itself is so vast that I really can't see how any one book could cover everything. Elecia goes into detail about the key functionalities of embedded systems; for example, power conservation, interrupts and timers. Everyone has heard about interrupts, but just what overhead do they create? When would I need them, when should I avoid them?Elecia also goes into a little more detail about another part of embedded systems; the teams that have the repsonsability of designing and building them. Just what makes an engineer suited for the job? What do you need in a team to give the best chances of success? This book has a few little extras about job interviews and trick questions, that while not necessarily required, always provide a welcome break between two subjects, and make you thin (the fridge question would have scared me!)This book is aimed for beginners; most high-level engineers will already be looking for books on very precise subjects, but as a primer, it is great. With ten years of experience I didn't necessarily learn anything new technically (but a refresher is always welcome), but I now have a few ways of explaining things to junior members of my team, and a new way of thinking.This book is full of technical detail, but more importantly, it is full of wisdom. I had fun reading this, and to the question would I recommend this book to a friend? I already have, to junior members of my team.

Does not cover anything in enough detail
By Old Codger
from San Diego
About Me Designer, Developer
The book scratches the surface of many key elements without doing much of anything usefully for any practicing engineer to learn anything new. It is telling to see less than one page on priority inversion, almost meaningless coverage of ipc and practically useless coverage of the osi stack in a confusing way. I'm disappointed again to see another O'Reilly book seriously short of the mark. I will be getting a refund on this book. Lastly I found the reference to interview questions of no use in a book on supposedly designing embedded systems, for example "Getting a goat safely across a river", perhaps if the author cast a wider net and had more reviewers, and spent longer deciding what the objective was a quality book might have resulted.

Having learned to drive in an era before air conditioning was standard, I still have vivid memories of motoring in hot, steamy climates. It was not fun.
By the 1970s when most cars had A/C, macho truckers refused it. One told me, "Air conditioning is for wimpy four-wheelers." His decision to stay warm may have had more to do with cost and reliability, not his manhood.
Today, fleet managers know that proper cab climate control contributes to vehicle safety and driver health. A comfortable operator is a safe and efficient driver. Properly maintained A/C is as necessary for good vision in bad weather as it is for driver comfort. Even in winter, the A/C unit comes on with defrosters to help defrost cold windshields.
That's because A/C systems also perform another function: They remove moisture. During rain or snowstorms relative humidity is often close to 100%. By cooling air, the absolute amount of moisture is reduced because colder air cannot hold as much for a given volume.
In the last few years, manufacturers have toughened cab climate control systems, yet they still can be delicate. They are made of soft materials that, if abused, could create problems that can stop an A/C system cold (pardon the pun).
The major components of any A/C system are the compressor, condenser, receiver-dryer, expansion valve, and the evaporator. They are connected primarily by soft metal tubing, usually aluminum and copper.
The engine drives the compressor through a drive belt. As it turns, the compressor draws a refrigerant fluid from the evaporator as a gas and forces it to a condenser where the gas liquefies. The liquid refrigerant then flows to a receiver-drier where any condensed moisture is removed.
The liquid refrigerant next flows through an expansion valve into an evaporator, where it "boils" to its gaseous state by drawing heat from cab air through the evaporator. The gaseous refrigerant then returns to the compressor.
Guide for help
The Technology and Maintenance Council (TMC) has published a comprehensive Recommended Practice on truck air conditioning. RP 418, "Heavy-Duty In-Cab R-134a Air Conditioning Systems," describes system components and their function, preventive maintenance, service procedures, diagnostics, and repairs.
At each oil change, inspect the sight glass on the receiver-drier. If there are bubbles, there is a leak in the system and maintenance should be performed. The other obvious sign of a problem is that the A/C does not cool adequately.

A little more tweeking and ready for the waste mold so finale detailing can begin.
Nicely done!
Looking fantastic Brian!
Here's some pics of the first cast out of the mold, Now I can start the resculpt and sanding part :)
I got the mask sanded smooth and played with the drawings to get an idea of what it will look like, I also had time time to start the mouth piece that will hold some hardwhare and tubing and will be cast seperate .
More Later .
Here's some upate pics on the new mask,
Alot of primer and some color
the mouth detail
and the start of the gas filters and chin grill,
beautiful sir, just plain ole beautiful
Fantastic! That black really makes the mask pop.
hi jarvis
what would the cost of these be when you sell them :)
My hat off to you sir.
Amazing work bro!
Absolutely top knotch.
Sweet Mask I always liked the Guermo Del Toro version of Kroenen's many masks. So Much cooler than Mignola drew it. More updates?
These look great. I am going to start the Kroenen costume and want to make this mask, because it looks better then the regular goggle-eyed one.
My friend has a vacuform machine he built we will use but I am confused on how to make the mold to form it on.
Did you make your mold completely out of a block of clay and shape it, and then plaster, ect over it for the final mold to lay the plastic over?
Ive been searching online with not much luck on a step by step process of the actual mold making.
erm.... you friend actually had a vac former - why not ask him how he makes molds to use on it?
try the vac forming forums - just google em. been a while since I was on one.
most people use oil-based clay to sculpt with then make vac forming bucks of it. materials varying. you need some hard heat resistant stuff. a mate of mine recently did some small bucks with bondo - which didnt hold up well to the heat.
or - why not pick up Jarvis one, his work is TOP NOTCH! and prices are very reasonable
dude that is just about too awesome for words to describe.
Beautiful lines. clean sculpt
Am looking for the Army of Two masks for sale.
You did an great job. Details are just amazing. Makes me wanna get back to finishing Abe.
hey B-diddy. I'm ready to buy this guy when you are. I'll pre-order if you want.

1. Don't forget to add vinegar to the water when you boil the eggs. I forgot and I bet my eggs would have held onto the wax better.
2. Don't shave too many crayons. I come from the school of more is better, but in the end, all the eggs were swimming in red wax. Also, the eggs all stuck to the plate once they dried because the melted shavings turned into one big crayon. I broke three trying to pry them off . See the soupy mess in the last picture.
3. Have the kids take the paper off the crayons. It takes them forever and keeps them busy.
4. My cheese grader is ruined? I haven't tried to clean it yet.
5. The kids adored the process and squealed with delight once they saw the crayons melting. I forgot to tell them, and they were so surprised!
6. I think this is a new tradition. Next year I will use less shavings, less reddish tones, and more eggs!
Have you tried this process? What did I miss?

"We ordered these for my daughter. We changed the font color to baroque which is a nice shade of purple. It was easy to do, but I recommend ordering a digital proof. We also liked how much space there is on the invitation. We were able to include all the party details and did not have to order a separate reception card. Invitations turned out beautiful and we received lots of compliments on them."
"The card is very good quality. I was especially happy with the person who helped me refine the design! I wish I could have downloaded the font to use for the envelopes. I did not consider using a font that I had. The price was definitely right and the quick delivery was very helpful."
"I used this card for my daughter's second birthday party, which was all butterfly themed. I wanted a more sophisticated, elegant design than the usual butterfly invitations and this one was perfect. I got a lot of compliments on it from the guests that we invited. The design also tied in with our outdoor/park party. I only wish that there were matching thank you cards in the same design."

Postgame Quotes, UNC vs. Belmont
Opening Statement
Congratulate Rick and his club; they really did some nice things. I did a poor job coaching. It's on me. I've always had the philosophy that if the other team scores to take the lead and there's more than seven seconds, we don't call a timeout - we attack right then - because we've got the ball in the open court. I wanted Marcus to go get the ball but I haven't practiced it enough. We didn't execute at that point and that's my fault. I was proud of the way they came back against a very good team, but we dug ourselves in a hole by mistakes and missed free throws. We made a really, really nice comeback but I didn't do my job down the stretch and at the same time that acts like it's just North Carolina - you've got to congratulate Belmont. J.J. Mann scored 11 of the last 13, three of them were threes that were deep threes, but just congratulate him. He made plays; we didn't get out there and guard him like I hoped to. He's a really good shooter, scored 11 points in the last 2:35. You have to congratulate him. Rick is a really good friend and a really good coach and I'm happy for him but I love those kids in my locker and their coach let them down today. That's about it.
On the free throw shooting
Three times in practice so far, we've asked everybody to shoot 200 free throws and everybody on our team shot over 70% last time we did that. James Michael (McAdoo) was 81%, JP (Tokoto) was 84%, but it didn't go in for us today. It was a big part of the game, there's no question, but I still let my team down at the end.
On Belmont's three point shooting
They really don't (shoot a lot of threes). When you look at their stat sheet, they made five threes a game, in their first three games they made 15 threes. I mean, that's five threes, we've made four. Against Indiana State they did a great job coming back and attacking the basket, but today they came out and made a couple of them early and that gave them confidence. We knew they were capable of shooting threes, there's no question, but still you've got to go by the first three games: they made five. But they made five today in the first 30 seconds it seemed like to me, and they really got confidence there.
On Paige and McAdoo playing most of the game
I don't like that but, you know, I started to make substitution and one of the coaches said 'Coach, we don't play again until next Friday, why save them?' There's no question if you have back-to-back games with one day in between, but I asked during one of the timeouts - we took a 30 second timeout, I said do you want to take a 30 second timeout or a full timeout to get more rest and coaches said they were fine.
Belmont Head Coach Rick Byrd
Opening Statement
First, I think that I need to say the reason that this is such a big win for Belmont University, to our players and to me is because of what a phenomenal tradition of basketball that the University of North Carolina has. They aren't great victories unless you beat great programs, so it's an awfully big win for our kids and it's a big win for the school. Hopefully going forward it will make us a better team, but it's a big moment right now for us, and I hope that those of you who are local get why it is [a big win] - it's because this program is so great.
On the play of senior forward J.J. Mann
J.J. is a great shooter. He's a great shooter. Great players start missing putts every now and then. He just hadn't gotten into a rhythm. I'm telling you, I'm stupid enough to let him shoot all year long just because I've seen him make so many shots. We chart everything. We chart things live and he shoots 75% from the three-point line in our shooting drills, so he's just going to keep shooting. One things for sure: he's just so darn cocky that he was never going to quit thinking it was going to go in, and sometimes shooters do. Sometimes they're fragile and you just know that they don't have a chance. I never thought that about him. He made a couple big ones so we made the last play a play for him.
On his team's response to North Carolina's run in the second half
We've seen this in all three of our games. We've been behind in the second half...eight at Lipscomb, 13 at Richmond and we cut it to three twice. We were behind 16 at halftime to Indiana State and then we were down eight [against North Carolina] at the last media timeout...about eight points or somewhere in there. I don't think there was any questioning the character, the heart, the want-to and really the confidence in these guys. What we've got to do better is simply adjust to other people's defensive adjustments and make better decisions and not go on these scoring droughts. They did some good things defensively and we just fell apart. We lost our poise. On top of that, all the extra possessions that they were getting on their end...I don't know whether it was good that they were missing free throws. I almost started wishing that they would make them so they wouldn't get the rebound and score more points that way.
James Michael McAdoo, Junior, Forward
On the loss to Belmont
They're a great team. We definitely knew what we were getting into when we were coming into this game. They're a great shooting team that wasn't really going to make that many mistakes. We definitely saw that. It wasn't a big surprise. I think we adjusted to it well in the second half, tried some different things, and then they just made plays at the end. No. 24 [J.J. Mann] made a tough shot.
On the final turnover
We were trying to have some clock management, and they just came down with a quick turnover. We were definitely thinking that first, we would get a shot up, and second, hopefully get an offensive rebound. Neither of those things happened. They were able to just put a good shot up."
On defending Belmont
They're a good team. We just made a lot of mistakes, and they capitalized on those. Good teams are able to do that.
On the North Carolina lineup
You can read into that. We're not going to because we've got who we've got out there. At the end of the day, we've all been practicing together for who knows how long, so we knew who we were going to have out there in the second half to get a stop and make the lineup adjustments.
Marcus Paige, Sophomore, Guard
On the loss to Belmont
We turned the ball over, and they hit some big shots. We knew they could shoot threes, and they hit some, and we turned it over down the stretch. There's really nothing else you can say to explain that.
On defending Belmont
They're tough because they space the floor out. They set a lot of those high-ball screens to shoot threes, and they really starting making them in the last five minutes of the game. They came up with some big shots. No. 23 [Craig Bradshaw] hit one in the corner, and then Mann hit a couple. He was 5-14 from three, so it's not like he was lighting us up, but he made the big ones when it counted.

Decitabine (Dacogen®)
Pronounced: dee-SYE-ta-been
Classification: DNA Methylation Inhibitor
About Decitabine (Dacogen®)
Decitabine is a type of drug called a hypomethylating agent. Methylation is a process in which methyl (CH3) groups are added to DNA, "turning off" genes that are critical for control of cell growth. Abnormal methylation, which silences certain genes, is associated with the development of many types of tumors. Decitabine-induced hypomethylation in cancer cells may interfere with this abnormal methylation and thereby restore normal function to genes that are critical for the control of cell growth.
How to Take Decitabine
Decitabine is given through intravenous (IV, into a vein) infusion either once a day, over an hour, for 5 days OR over 3 hours, every 8 hours, for 3 days. The dosage and schedule is determined by the person's size and the type of cancer being treated.
Possible Side Effects of Decitabine
There are a number of things you can do to manage the side effects of decitabine. Talk to your doctor or nurse about these recommendations. They can help you decide what will work best for you. These are some of the most common side effects
Low White Blood Cell Count (Leukopenia or Neutropenia)
White blood cells (WBC) are important for fighting infection. While receiving treatment, your WBC count can drop, putting you at a higher risk of getting an infection. You should let your doctor or nurse know right away if you have a fever (temperature greater than 100.4), sore throat or cold, shortness of breath, cough, burning with urination, or a sore that doesn't heal.
Tips to preventing infection:
- Washing hands, both yours and your visitors, is the best way to prevent the spread of infection.
- Avoid large crowds and people who are sick (i.e.: those who have a cold, fever or cough or live with someone with these symptoms).
- When working in your yard, wear protective clothing including long pants and gloves.
- Do not handle pet waste.
- Keep all cuts or scratches clean.
- Shower or bath daily and perform frequent mouth care.
- Do not cut cuticles or ingrown nails. You may wear nail polish, but not fake nails.
- Ask your doctor or nurse before scheduling dental appointments or procedures.
- Ask your doctor or nurse before you, or someone you live with, has any vaccinations.
Low Red Blood Cell Count (Anemia)
Your red blood cells are responsible for carrying oxygen to the tissues in your body. When the red cell count is low, you may feel tired or weak. You should let your doctor or nurse know if you experience any shortness of breath, difficulty breathing or pain in your chest. If the count gets too low, you may receive a blood transfusion.
Low Platelet Count (Thrombocytopenia)
Platelets help your blood clot, so when the count is low you are at a higher risk of bleeding. Let your doctor or nurse know if you have any excess bruising or bleeding, including nose bleeds, bleeding gums or blood in your urine or stool. If the platelet count becomes too low, you may receive a transfusion of platelets.
- Do not use a razor (an electric razor is fine).
- Avoid contact sports and activities that can result in injury or bleeding.
- Do not take aspirin (salicylic acid), non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs) such as Motrin®, Aleve®, Advil®, etc. as these can all increase the risk of bleeding. Unless your healthcare team tells you otherwise, you may take acetaminophen (Tylenol).
- Do not floss or use toothpicks and use a soft-bristle toothbrush to brush your teeth.
Nausea and/or Vomiting
Talk to your doctor or nurse so they can prescribe medications to help you manage nausea and vomiting. In addition, dietary changes may help. Avoid things that may worsen the symptoms, such as heavy or greasy/fatty, spicy or acidic foods (lemons, tomatoes, oranges). Try antacids, (e.g. milk of magnesia, calcium tablets such as Tums), saltines, or ginger ale to lessen symptoms.
Call your doctor or nurse if you are unable to keep fluids down for more than 12 hours or if you feel lightheaded or dizzy at any time.
Your oncology team can recommend medications to relieve diarrhea. Also, try eating low-fiber, bland foods, such as white rice and boiled or baked chicken. Avoid raw fruits, vegetables, whole grain breads, cereals and seeds. Soluble fiber is found in some foods and absorbs fluid, which can help relieve diarrhea. Foods high in soluble fiber include: applesauce, bananas (ripe), canned fruit, orange sections, boiled potatoes, white rice, products made with white flour, oatmeal, cream of rice, cream of wheat, and farina. Drink 8-10 glasses on non-alcoholic, un-caffeinated fluid a day to prevent dehydration.
There are several things you can do to prevent or relieve constipation. Include fiber in your diet (fruits and vegetables), drink 8-10 glasses of non-alcoholic fluids a day, and keep active. A stool softener once or twice a day may prevent constipation. If you do not have a bowel movement for 2-3 days, you should contact your healthcare team for suggestions to relieve the constipation.
Mouth Ulcers (Sores)
Certain cancer treatments can cause sores or soreness in your mouth and/or throat. Notify your doctor or nurse if your mouth, tongue, inside of your cheek or throat becomes white, ulcerated or painful. Performing regular mouth care can help prevent or manage mouth sores. If mouth sores become painful, your doctor or nurse can recommend a pain reliever.
- Brush with a soft-bristle toothbrush or cotton swab twice a day.
- Avoid mouthwashes that contain alcohol. A baking soda and/or salt warm water mouth rinse (2 level teaspoons of baking soda or 1 level teaspoon salt in an eight ounce glass of warm water) is recommended 4 times daily.
- If your mouth becomes dry, eat moist foods, drink plenty of fluids (6-8 glasses), and suck on sugarless hard candy.
- Avoid smoking and chewing tobacco, drinking alcoholic beverages and citrus juices.
Fatigue is very common during cancer treatment and is an overwhelming feeling of exhaustion that is not usually relieved by rest. While on cancer treatment, and for a period after, you may need to adjust your schedule to manage fatigue. Plan times to rest during the day and conserve energy for more important activities. Exercise can help combat fatigue; a simple daily walk with a friend can help. Talk to your healthcare team for helpful tips on dealing with this side effect.
Fever can be a side effect of this medication. However, fever (temperature > 100.4 F) can be a sign of infection. You should always call your care provider if you develop a fever while on treatment.
High Blood Sugar
This medication may cause elevated blood sugar levels in patients with and without diabetes. Your healthcare team will monitor your blood sugar. If you develop increased thirst, urination or hunger, blurry vision, headaches or your breath smells like fruit, notify your healthcare team. Diabetics should monitor their blood sugar closely and report elevations to the healthcare team.
Reproductive Concerns
Exposure of an unborn child to this medication could cause birth defects, so you should not become pregnant or father a child while on this medication. Effective birth control is necessary during treatment and for at least 2 months after treatment. Even if your menstrual cycle stops or you believe you are not producing sperm, you could still be fertile and conceive. You should consult with your healthcare team before breastfeeding while receiving this medication.

Iran Launches Submarine and Destroyer into Gulf During US Naval Exercises
This week the US, UK, France, and a few Middle Eastern countries are conducting naval exercises in the Gulf of Persia to practice clearing mines that Iran, or other groups may place around the Straits of Hormuz in an attempt to disrupt the movement of oil tankers in the region.
Mohammed Ali Jafari, the commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, said that the "exercise is a defensive exercise and we don't perceive any threats from it. We are not conducting exercises in response."
Yet this is not the impression that is given.
Just yesterday, according to the official IRNA news agency, upon the direct orders of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei Iran launched a refitted Tareq-901 submarine and a Sahand destroyer into the Gulf from the port of Bandar Abbas.

At the same time, as stated on Khamenei's official website, the Supreme Leader was visiting the northern coastal city of Nowshahr to observe naval cadets practice planting mines, rescuing hijacked ships, destroying enemy ships, and rapid deployment via helicopters.
Khamenei addressed his troops, saying that "the armed forces must reach capabilities such that no one can attack the strong fence of the country and the dear people of Iran."
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on Sunday that Tehran is now very close to building a nuclear bomb, leading some to fear that Israel may take things into their own hands and strike against Iranian nuclear facilities.

When you mention Arsenal and Huddersfield Town in the same breath, it's almost impossible not to think of Herbert Chapman.
The clubs are intrinsically linked by their connection to the legendary manager whose trail-blazing work in 1920s and 1930s put both on the football map.
One of the most innovative and astute managers of all time, Chapman guided Huddersfield to two consecutive League titles in 1924 and 1925 before moving to London to scale even greater heights.
Chapman led Arsenal to their first major trophy in 1930 when they beat Huddersfield - who else? - in the FA Cup Final. League success followed in 1931 and 1933 before Chapman's untimely death a few months before another title was secured in 1934.

Late in August, the Baltimore Sun ran the headline "Plans for Mechanic Theatre Site Stir Controversy." The theater in question was designed by legendary Modernist John Johansen, FAIA, in the style of Brutalism. As might be expected, a proposal to demolish a building by an acknowledged midcentury master has provoked no small controversy. It doesn't help the case of Johansen's building that it's been vacant for eight years, or, as one blogger wrote, "I'd come close to heart attack walking up all the stairs in that damn place just to get a seat where you couldn't see the stage or hear the actors."
The most passionate defense of Mechanic Theater seems to be more a matter of respect than love, which puts me in mind of a similarly challenged midcentury building in Boston.
Almost from the first day it was opened to the public, the Boston City Hall, designed by Kallman McKinnell & Knowles, has ignited fierce passions. Architects admire it; the public and those who work in the building admire it less so. Part of the issue here, and in Baltimore, stems from the negative impact both buildings have had on the existing urban fabric: Boston's ragged but much beloved Scollay Square was erased, and in Baltimore streets were eliminated around the theater to create superblocks.
The ultimate fate of these two buildings—indeed of much of the architecture of the middle decades of the 20th century—raises difficult questions: What of our architectural heritage is worth preserving, and why? Who makes these decisions, and what are the criteria? When do such discussions begin? After 10 years, 20 years, 50 years?
The U.S. Secretary of the Interior's "Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties" helps shape an informed discussion. But even this resource raises the question of what is worth preserving. Take, for example, this sentence from "Criteria Considerations" published in the National Register Bulletin, which attempts to guide nominations: "A property achieving significance within the past 50 years if it is of exceptional [italics added] importance." For architects, "exceptional" can mean something quite different from how the general public sees it, and we can get into real trouble if we argue that our experience and training qualify us to be the final arbiters.
Humility and openness are perhaps wiser qualities to call on when discussing how a building contributes to a community's quality of life and special sense of place. After all, was it so long ago that Victorian architecture was roundly despised? Yet imagine for a moment how much poorer our towns and cities would be without the sheer delight of Arts and Crafts, Italianate, and the purple prose of Queen Anne architecture. On second thought, it's not so difficult to imagine, because so much of it actually was lost.
One block from the AIA's Washington, D.C., headquarters is the Old Executive Office Building (1888), designed by Alfred Mullett. Work began on the building at the height of the fashion for French Second Empire architecture, but by the time it opened its doors, Congress and the public had lost its taste for the style. Right up to Eisenhower's presidency, there were several proposals from Congress, the public, and architects to tear it down, or at least to modify it. Fortunately, by the time the money was found to do the job, people discovered they rather liked the flamboyance of Mullett's work. Today, it's an esteemed neighbor to the White House.
In the end, questions of what we bequeath to future generations are perhaps best answered by our grandchildren. Whether by neglect or intent, once a building disappears a piece of our architectural legacy is irretrievably lost.
Jeff Potter, FAIA, 2012 President

Wootalyzer's Pricing Post! - Saving Woot prices for decades to come------------------------------------------------------------Breville 15-Bar Die-Cast Espresso & Cappuccino Maker$149.99 + $5 ShippingCondition: RecertifiedProduct List:- 1 Breville 800ESXL 15-Bar Die-Cast Stainless Steel Espresso & Cappuccino Maker *DISCLAIMER* Wootalyzer! is in no way affiliated with Woot!, and this post may not always be here!
yay, now i can drink it for cheaper then starbucks.
CHeap expresso forvever.
4.6 stars on buzzillions. that's good...
79/100 from the alatest algorithm...
If you buy Starbucks regularly, buy this instead, you'll save a ton in the long run!
looks cool and good name brand.
but haven't got the dough at the moment
the former starbucks employee wants, but the poor college student living at home tells me to go to bed ...
I'm sorry, but a used appliance that makes food or beverages is gross. Even if it does use boiling hot water and air 15 times greater than atmospheric pressure.
Check out these reviews:
We have one of these and it is a commercial grade machine. They are great and luckily it was an anniversary gift. I guess they retail for around $400. So, even for a respiff, that is a great price.
399 on amazon
too bad i gave up coffee.....sigh
I have this. Bought it from a store for $300 new a while back for my wife. She loves it. She uses it almost every day. It's nice - feels like good quality. It makes a darn good espresso too.
Define irony in 10 words or less.
Irony = This item - immediately following a woot-off.
I would still see what Costco and Sears have before I plop down the $$$ they want for this thing. Is it a deal even if it might be overkill?
mesmerelda wrote:too bad i gave up coffee.....sigh
Why? Next to blood, coffee is our life juice. This machine can spit it out in high octane too!
I was just talking to my friend at work about spending mucho dinero for one of these. The appearance of this on WOOT was a message from God.
In for one - no question
elpepe wrote:I'm sorry, but a used appliance that makes food or beverages is gross. Even if it does use boiling hot water and air 15 times greater than atmospheric pressure.
Uhhh... That's better than the autoclave your doctor uses. Just sayin'
How good of quality can these be if so many broke to begin with and had to be refurbished? Maybe the die-cast parts are good, but what about the electronics?
I bought the Alton Brown indirectly approved espresso machine last year and love it. This machine lists many of the same benefits I was looking for: good pressure, large water holding capacity, cup warming tray, loose grind and pod compatible, and not be ridiculously over the top looking.
But this item also has the swivel on the foam/water wand, larger cup clearance and includes the foaming cup. Plus it's $50 less than what I paid, and I scoured the net for the best deal.
Of course, mine was new...
If I didn't already have an espresso machine, I'd be all over this deal.
Pressurized System? respiffied? Sounds like the recipe for a wicked steam burn...
I'll be keeping my arms and spending the extra dough on a new one. Shame, cause I am in the market, too.
I was actually looking for a gift for a friend who really likes coffee....but I'm not buying this.
Why? Not because I dislike the product.
I'm not buying it because Woot just sent out SEVEN IDENTICAL TWEETS IN THE PAST 14 MINUTES ADVERTISING THIS DAMN PRODUCT.
NO. I DON'T want 7 text messages for every piece of ... you guys try to sell.
EDIT: Just got yet ANOTHER text.
EDIT: DIE WOOT, DIE. 10 text messages is 9 too many, I've stopped following Woot.
This product is woot's way of saying, "if you had one of these maybe you would have stayed up for the entire woot off..."
Utah ends up bright orange on the map for most Woots. I guess we love a good deal. However, Mormons don't drink coffee, so our state may stay dark for this one. I can't wait to see how that turns out.
So... is woot's twitter feed broken for anyone else for me? I have device updates on, so I've gotten like 5 text messages in the last 4 minutes.
Great. A toilet paper dispenser followed by a carp-puccino machine.....
waited the wholllle woot-off for an espresso machine...now it shows up...and i need a double-shot from stayin up all night....i'm in for one
By the way, I would also like to say that the product description is very well done. Crisp writing and the perfect amount of cliche. Woot is turning into a creative writing site that sells electronics on the side.
It has a stainless steel body and tamper, but what matters is if it has a stainless steel portafilter (the thing you put the espresso grounds in) does anyone know if that is stainless?
I'm in for one.... so why is it still like a woot-off without the lights?
How difficult is this to wash?
steinhof wrote:Check out these reviews:
Damn, beat me to it.
A friend of mine has this machine, and it makes excellent espresso. I've been lusting after it, and was tempted to get one at Williams sonoma at full retail price. (It used to be $399; the new model, the 820, is now $499 -- because it has both a steam and a hot water nozzle.).
Not everyone on coffeegeek loves it, but the majority do, and I've seen it myself. The reviews on Amazon are generally pretty favorable, too: 34 5-star, 18 4-star, 7 3-star, 9 2-star, and 4 1-star.
In for one, for sure!
aussiesue wrote:I'm in for one.... so why is it still like a woot-off without the lights?
Because this is the new product for the day. If this thing sells out there won't be another Woot posted until Midnight tomorrow. That's the difference between a Woot-off and a regular Woot.
ijestha wrote:Uhhh... That's better than the autoclave your doctor uses. Just sayin'
last post is right... bet you didn't buy the toilet paper holder because of the germs on the FM knob.
tubasparky wrote:Because this is the new product for the day. If this thing sells out there won't be another Woot posted until Midnight tomorrow. That's the difference between a Woot-off and a regular Woot.
woops... i really am in Australia... it's already 3:30 in the afternoon... lost my time zones
Been wantin one for a while now, specially since I've started roasting my own coffee!
Cool beans. In for one.
This is pump-driven, which is better than the typical steam espresso machines that are much cheaper.
Also, @woot on twitter has gone insane. Will I have to unfollow?
in for one...quit drinking so turning my wet bar into a --COFFEE BAR--...so sad
Bunnyko wrote:It has a stainless steel body and tamper, but what matters is if it has a stainless steel portafilter (the thing you put the espresso grounds in) does anyone know if that is stainless?
A brass portafilter is the standard in high quality espresso machines. They are usually nickel-plated brass because it's heavier and holds heat better.
Looks like this one is stainless steel, not brass.
Look at the print ready produc sheet at the bottom of that link.
Woots loosing followers by the dozen every minute. Took a SS at 14,343. Taking bets on when it'll slip below the Dow Jones Industrial average.

Daytona Diary for Monday, February 17, 2014
Welcome from Daytona International Speedway. I covered my first NASCAR race in 1987 at Watkins Glen. Must confess, I didn't know much about the sport, but quickly got hooked mainly because of the great television it provided with the breathtaking sights and sounds. I have covered about 20 years of races at The Glen and have enjoyed every minute of it. This is my first Daytona 500 and I have been very eager for this week to arrive. I spent some time at Daytona International Speedway back in December, had tremendous access to this storied track and got a feel for the week I (and you) are in for.
The Story: We needed a compelling storyline for this year's race (other than can Jimmie Johnson win a 7th series title) and boy did we get one on Sunday. Richard Childress has brought the famed #3 car back to NASCAR, the number Dale Earnhardt, Sr. made famous. Childress's grandson, Austin Dillon, is driving that car and all he did yesterday is secure the pole for the Great American Race at 196 MPH. Martin Truex will start alongside him as he was second fastest. This was EXACTLY what this race and the sport needed. Dillon will have a tremendous amount of support behind him. When it was announced this iconic number would be returning, there were mixed emotions. Childress maintained the only way he would bring it back is if Dale, Jr. drove it or someone in the family. Dillon is that guy and it will be fascinating to watch.
Weather: The weather here at Daytona is expected to be perfect all week. Sunny every day and temperature in the mid-70's.
Track under construction: Daytona International Speedway is undergoing a $400 million Daytona Rising renovation that will be completed in January of 2016. It's a complete overhaul of the seating along the front stretch. It's been long overdue and in a couple of years, will be spectacular for the visitors. All new seating, new luxury seating, the works.
For now, there are cranes and construction equipment around as they continue this project.
Check in each day as I will have a new entry and if you have a NASCAR question or observation, you can e-mail me at: email@example.com. Also, please follow me on Twitter at john_kucko.

By Chris Harris
Arsène Wenger admits that Arsenal have been reliant on Robin van Persie for goals - and he wants his other strikers to contribute when their chance comes.
The Arsenal captain is enjoying a purple patch in front of the posts, netting 12 times in his last eight appearances to keep the likes of Marouane Chamakh and Ju Young Park out of the starting line-up.
Van Persie's potency has become a major weapon for Arsenal but Wenger knows that the Dutchman's run will not last for ever with form and fitness liable to go down as well as up. If the Dutchman's level drops, it will be up to others to fill the void.
"We are reliant on Robin, of course, because he scores many goals," said Wenger. "That's what you want from your strikers.
"We have cover for Robin because we have Chamakh and Park, who I think are quality but at the moment they are not getting the opportunities because Robin is in such fantastic form.
"It will be up to them to show they can take the relay when needed because the season is long and we play in many competitions, hopefully for a long time. Everybody will get a chance.
"I believe that players like Gervinho, Walcott, Arshavin and Ramsey will score goals as well. But at the moment they are more in the providing zone. I am confident that in the near future, some others will score goals as well."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.
