SS James Longstreet (Hull Number 112) was a Liberty ship built in the United States during World War II at a cost of $1,833,400. She was named after the Confederate general James Longstreet.
She was laid down on 3 December 1941, then launched on 2 April 1942.[citation needed] On 26 October 1943,[1] she ran aground in a gale in 1943 and was declared a total loss. Instead of being scrapped, she was acquired by the US Navy in June 1944 and used as a target ship for early air to surface guided missiles. Whilst under tow to and from the target areas, she once ran aground and on another occasion broke her anchor chain and drifted for ten days before being recovered. She was then sunk and used for further experiments using missiles, before then being used for live ammunition target practice by Naval jets from nearby South Weymouth Naval Air Station and the Air Force from nearby Otis Air Force Base until 1971. The ship is also referred to as the "target ship".
The remains of the James Longstreet lie approximately three and a half miles off Eastham, Massachusetts in 20 to 25 feet (6.1 to 7.6 m) of water. The site is off limits to divers due to unexploded ordnance.

Killing My Lobster Hosts 15th Anniversary Fundraiser, 9/14
On Friday, September 14th, 2012 from 8PM to midnight, Killing My Lobster will be hosting its 15th Anniversary fundraising event at the Verdi Club at 2424 Mariposa Street in San Francisco. The event will gather the extended KML communities of actors, writers, patrons, and supporters to celebrate the past, present, and future of the organization with a night of revelry - a prom, Quinceañera style!
Highlights for the evening include: Marga Gomez (Best of the Bay 2012 "Best Comedian") as featured MC, a prom photo booth, and a benefit silent auction. KML's 15th Anniversary Prom is definitely a time for celebration. Any relationship that lasts that long deserves a party. It also marks a time for KML to hold its annual fundraiser.
KML Creative Director, Andy Alabran, describes why fundraising events like this one are so crucial to the organization's survival: "While some non-profit theater companies may receive financial viability from a subscriber base or deep-pocket donors, KML produces work primarily from the support of its audience. We're taking a time-out from production to say, in the truest sense, 'we can't do what we do without you'."
KML is a comedy home of some of the funniest comedians in the Bay Area. At the forefront of KML's mission is creating opportunities for its talented community. KML has worked with other like-minded artists at Z Space and the Jewish Community Center, performed on the American Conservatory Theater stage with the masterful clown Bill Irwin, and showcased the talent of its students as emerging new voices in the Bay Area.

hemming jeans
My neighbor has asked me to shorten 3 pairs of jeans for her. I've hemmed jeans in the past for myself but was never really satisfied with the outcome. A couple questions:
1) How do you sew over the "hump" (side seam) without having one big stitch or a bunch of tiny stitches? I remember reading something about using a credit card, but I'm not sure how. Behind the needle or in front of the needle?
2) I've used regular polyester covered thread on my own, but I'm doing someone elses and I think I need a different kind of thread. What was used on these jeans is a heavy thread. What kind of thread is this? Is it topstitching thread??
I have size 18 needles, and I believe they are the correct size for jeans. Thanks.
I have something that came with my machine called a "Hump jumper).It goes behind the presser foot,so that the back end of the presserfoot rest on it.You have to hold it in place as you sew over the hump.As for thread,coats&clark makes a denim(orange) thread like that which most top stitching is done with,and that's what i use.If you don't have that you can use 2 spools of thread on top to get that nice stitch,BUT only one of those top threads passes through the last hook b4 the needle,the 2nd one stays outside of it.Clear as mud right??
The jeans are solid black and all the top-stitching/hemming is done using black thread. So orange thread is out. Coats & Clark also makes a button and craft thread which is pretty strong and it comes in black. Would that work?
I used to work in a fabric store back in the '90's. I remember hearing about something called the hump jumper (probably on a sewing website), but I don't know if the fabric store carried it. I had to google it and click on images to see what it looked like. If they did carry it, I never did buy one.
The hump jumper came as an accessory with a brand name machine. You could purchase them separately and it does a great job on those big thick seams. Rumor has it they are no longer made but there is a jean ama jig that does the same job. Goggle jean ama jig and have a look at that. I've seen them in fabric stores.
The accessory being discussed has been sold by several names, but you can do the same thing with an index card. The back of your foot is hinged and it needs to stay level to get good stitches. In other words, the foot should not be pointing down or pointing up while you sew. Fold an index card, then fold again, keep folding until it is about the thickness of the seam that you have to cross. You will have to put the card in front of the foot sometimes and in back of the foot sometimes, but you need to keep it there while you are sewing on this elevated area. You will have to go very slowly across this seam. You don't sew the card, it's purpose is just to keep the foot level.
As for type of thread, I would use regular polyester thread if I were you since you are not trying to match a different top stitching color. Anything heavier than machine topstitching thread may not work in your machine. After you hem them you can see if it looks like you need topstitching. If you decide that you do, then go over it with topstitching thread and lengthen you stitch length. You will need a jean needle or a large needle. Good luck. Jeans are hard to hem.
soonergrandmom, don't I know they are hard to hem! They are 100% cotton but have some stretch to them. How can I keep from stretching them when working with them? When I got finished one leg, it looked a little like bellbottoms!!I should have said "sorry, but I don't do jeans". Thanks
Hmmm, I've never had a problem with them stretching although I wear the cotton stretch type myself. I have to buy a tall then remove an inch. You might try using a stay stitch just where your fold is going to be and see if that helps. If she ever needs a zipper replaced in a pair, RUN!!
I googled "hem jeans" and found this. So you can see.....others don't like to do it either. I wouldn't want to do this to someone's elses jeans, but it would sure be quicker. LOL
Here is a link that might be useful: Alternate Method
ok, I went and looked at the inside tag. They are 99% cotton and 1% lycra, so I was wrong about them being 100% cotton. I'll try the stay stitching around the fold. I'm not stretching the fabric as I sew, or at least I don't think I am. I have to guide it through, but I try and do that without pulling it. Hard to believe 1% lycra can stretch! Zippers, No Way!! I've put a couple of them in jeans for myself, but now, I toss the jeans if they need a new one. Zippers have always been my least favorite thing when it comes to sewing.
I looked at the alternate method link. Looks like a blind stitch that you do on your machine except you sew straight stitches instead of the zigzag stitches. Is that what you were seeing? Don't think I would want that on my jeans.
Liddybuff... learn to use a single edge razor blade and you will learn to get that zipper out in just about 1 minute... You just need someone to show you how... no matter how long you sew...you can always learn a new trick... if you use a hammer to smack the side seams down when you roll it... it also goes faster, and the needle just sews right thru...
i'm a beginner sewer and i just hemmed my daughter's jeans last night using the "alternate" method, above. they are perfect. i like the factory hem much better than a new hem. and you don't have to keep the inside "cuff". you can trim it down and just do an overlock edge, but since my dd is very young, i'm leaving it in since i know she's getting taller.
Also try, putting your needles into a bar of soap first. This will act as a lubricant. I do that with my hand stitching needles too when it's a tough fabric.
I learned when in Indonesia, where many jean factories are, to use the hammer. I have a thick wooden cutting board for crafts etc and I place the folded jean hem on it and hammer away. Worked for me for over 20 years.
As for fabric stretching, you need to adjust your machine's tension. Try on a scrap first (the part that you cut off). After you have it set to go, don't forget to write down the setting number so as you'll have it handy for next time.

MOUNT PLEASANT, N.Y. – More than 2,000 Mount Pleasant customers remained without power Tuesday morning and it could be more than a week before power is restored.
An estimated 2,096 out of 8,783 customers in Mount Pleasant were without power at 6 a.m. Tuesday, according to Con Edison reports. While the height of the storm passed through a week ago and more than 840,000 customers have had power restored, most Westchester areas listed Sunday, Nov. 11 as an estimated restoration date, according to Con Edison reports.
As of Tuesday morning, Con Edison representatives said approximately 120,000 customers were without electricity, out of an estimated 960,000 affected. That included approximately 1,400 out in Manhattan, 27,400 in Queens, 21,100 in Brooklyn, 12,000 in Staten Island and 6,000 in the Bronx. In Westchester County, the company reported 52,868 customers out of service, while approximately 170,000 customers had their service restored in the last week.
Officials said they expected to restore the "vast majority of those affected by Hurricane Sandy by the weekend," according to a press release.
"While Con Edison continues to return electricity to customers since Hurricane Sandy moved out, the company is monitoring the Nor'easter forecast for Wednesday," officials said in a press release Monday night. "The expected high winds and heavy rains could delay restorations and may cause additional outages."

knockout roses raleigh,nc
Anyone know the best place to buy knock out roses in raleigh, cary - best prices?
Since I got my hand slapped by GW for mentioning a business by name on a previous thread I will point out that by the rules of Garden Web we aren't supposed to say anything that can be considered advertising.
I will say that the cheapest knockouts I've seen are at the state run - rhymes with Pharmers Narket. But they often don't have a wide selection (mostly the pink double last time I checked).
I saw them there in the fall and they may have had them on sale to move them out for something else. They were pretty big and only $5 per bush (in bloom). Sometimes I see tiny bare root ones at one of the big box stores for around $10 but you would have to wait a year to see blossoms.
oh, the 'narket' is a great place to get stuff! They mark down things periodically and have many vendors competing, which tends to keep prices reasonable. Just be aware of what you can get it for somewhere else. Plus you know you're supporting local guys instead of big box stores. win win win.

In April of 2012, Stereo Reform teamed up with Bravo Ocean and Triangle Sound Studios (owned by acclaimed producer Tricky Stewart) to record their newest album, The Future Started Yesterday, released in May of 2013. This high-energy album defines their signature sound, "Dance-a-Funk-a-Rock-a-Tronic," in ten songs that groove and rock from the first note to the last. A true synthesis of genres, Dance-a-Funk-a-Rock-a-Tronic takes the loosely definable "rock" sound and blends dance, funk, and pop into the mix, featuring insightful lyrics with mature themes, all gripped by a fistful of just plain fun. Anchored by songs such as The Future Started Yesterday, Fire, and 10 Miles Out Of NYC (which was featured in Relix in 2011), this album boasts ample drums that give way to crisp guitar riffs and electro-influenced backbeats, and offers a fresh, sexy, modern sound that is wholly unique, yet feels somehow familiar.
In the fall of 2013, Stereo Reform applied to Pandora® Internet Radio, and was accepted in the record time of just a few short weeks. Stereo Reform is now proud to have their very own Pandora station, which features their music alongside that of such familiar and notable artists as Prince, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Daft Punk, Capital Cities, and more. Stereo Reform recently released their newest music video for the track Fire from their album, The Future Started Yesterday. The video is featured on YouTube Nation, a joint venture between DreamWorks Animation and YouTube. The band also has the honor of being the feature band and having the theme song for the College All-Star Bowl and the South Carolina NFL Hall of Fame Induction in February of 2014. Stereo Reform is a fusion of the creative talents of Neil Turner on bass, keys, and lead vocals, and Will Evans on guitar, keys, and backup vocals.

This straightforward mountain Zinfandel has big dark-fruit notes and a cherry-syrup finish, with textures of leather and tobacco
(12/ 2010)
Big and rather rustic, with raspberry and briary underbrush aromas that lead to ripe plum, sage and spicy caramel flavors. Drink now through 2016.
(11/ 2012)
Four Vines' Maverick bottling is sourced from dry-farmed, head-pruned, old vine vineyards in the Shenandoah Valley of Amador County. At a 1,200 feet of elevation, the red volcanic soils of this Sierra Foothills region produce an earthy and intense Zinfandel profile with a unique and historic terroir. From the winery: "Elevated aromas of baked berry pie, licorice and pepper intermingle with oak notes of vanilla and mesquite. The Jam Bomb delivers again with a brambly blueberry middle surrounded by ripe flavors of boysenberry and blackberry. A big splash of Barbera, together with a little Petite Sirah and Mourvedre keep this wine rocking your palate from its jammy start to its velvety berry/cinnamon finish."

Local businesses can leverage the power of searches on this online classified ad site that gets more than 20 billion page views each month.
The most searched for term in mid-March 2009 was "craigslist," according to Hitwise. It was the first time since March 2006 that "myspace" was not the top search term in the United States. The increase in searches for "craigslist" is understandable in light of the economic squeeze many shoppers are feeling. Good for both buyers and sellers, Craigslist is known as a place to turn unneeded items into quick cash and for being a source of bargains.
Craigslist began as an online community bulletin board. It has essentially become a Web-based classified ad marketplace. Like most classified ad platforms, it's focused on specific locations. According to craigslist fact sheet, 50 million people view 20 billion Web pages on its sites every month. There are 500 Craigslist sites in 50 countries and in each of the 50 states in the U.S. Many local businesses have made Craigslist a part of their marketing mix. Depending upon your location and niche, you may wish to consider it, too.
Craigslist has gone beyond the classified ads you see in newspapers by being both free and searchable. The free part attracts sellers of all stripes. After all, if you have something to sell, advertising it for free to millions of searchers is a no-brainer. For buyers, the ads are easy to search, making it a breeze to sniff out what you're looking for without reading hundreds of ads only somewhat related to what you really want to buy.
The simple algorithm displays search results first by the posting date -- with newer ads appearing above older ones -- and then by keyword. So, it's important to use keyword rich text in the title and description of your ads. Since people have the option to search titles only, make certain your best keywords are contained in your headlines. If you can make the title eye-catching, it will help your ad from blending in with all of the others on the screen. Some advertisers use asterisks, dollar signs, question marks, and the like to stand out from the crowd.
You may also upload images into your ads, which definitely improves their effectiveness. Searchers may opt to include only ads containing pictures within their results, so ads without images are typically seen by fewer people. A combination of keyword rich text and clear photos is ideal.
You can link text or images within your ad to a landing page on your Web site. Ideally, the landing page is designed to give more information to the searcher about the product or service and to help close the deal. The landing page may contain clickable links to other Web pages, examples of your work, testimonials from satisfied customers, a form to capture contact info about the clicker, a coupon redeemable at your shop, and more.
Keep in mind, people shopping on Craigslist are generally bargain hunters. They are looking for a good deal, so the best strategy to get their attention is to offer a deal. However, most shoppers here are savvy and it has to be a real deal, not a measly 10 percent to 20 percent off. Anything with "free" in the title will also attract a lot of attention, but may also be met with healthy skepticism. Limited time and limited quantity offers can be effective ways to spur action and make a "Buy Now" call to action more compelling. Think about ways you can use discounts for Craigslist readers to get your business in front of new customers.
Your ads will only stay up on Craigslist for 30 days before expiring, so you need to resubmit every month. However, this is not undue burden if it results in qualified customers to your business. Since the newest ads are seen by the greatest number of browsers, some people repost frequently and rotate ads almost daily. If you focus on attracting searchers, rather than browsers, this isn't really necessary.
In addition to advertising services and items for sale, you may also place ads in the events and community categories. Explore these for additional opportunities, such as posting local news and announcing neighborhood events.
Like other forms of marketing, leveraging the power of searches for Craigslist terms to promote your local business is something you'll need to brainstorm and test. Discover what your competitors and similar vendors in other areas are doing and learn from it. Hopefully, you'll experience success that you can then build upon and refine. However, if the results aren't worth the effort it to maintain your listings, let it go. There are plenty of other places to advertise online and Craigslist is not a good fit for every local business.

Astilbe brown out
The last few years, my astilbes are browned out & looking worse than shabby by mid summer. They are planted in North side shade with hosta, heuchera, ferns, corydalis, etc. The other plants are fine. I have appx 1/2 dozen different varieties & the issue does not seem variety related. I get blooms on even the later varieties but the flowers appear over what an outsider would consider a dead plant. I've done the obvious things & am open to suggestion.....
I know my astilbes are only nice looking for so long. The flower heads do die off about mid-summer and just look brown. I swear they are brown so long I forget what color they really are. So I know this doesn't help you, but it may just be them acting normal.
Bob, you mean the leaves look brown and shabby? Could it be some kind of fungus or powdery mildew? If so, they may need better air circulation. They might do better in an area that gets a little more sun. When you water, just water the ground, not overhead.
I don't have astilbes, but I've seen this on some annuals I have. When I spaced them more and tried them in an area with more sun, they did much better.
I hope they improve for you.
Well I'll throw in my two cent cuz I have the same problem. I think its a moisture issue. Do you have tree root competition? Are they inside the drip line of your roof? They need to have even moisture and even then may crap out on you in the heat of summer. You can try shearing them to the crown (not too close) when the leaves start to decline, they may or may not leaf out again before the end of the summer.
I have several varieties of astilbe in several different locations that have performed very well for a number of years. Last year, however, virtually all of them were in one stage of decline or another despite proper watering. My suspicion is that it was viral/fungal so I was extra careful in my fall cleanup. We'll see what this year brings.

Just got back from a 5 night stay at this hotel. Location cannot be beat, it is located almost directly across from the entrance to Disneyland. Check-in was a breeze. We arrived at noon, and our room was ready for us, which was great since check-in was supposed to be 3pm. We stayed in a C2 Parlor Family Suite Room #307 because our group was 9 family members travelling together. It was good to have a separate bedroom with a door so that we could put the younger children to bed earlier and still stay up and visit. Two bathrooms were very handy as well. Very clean and the room had been recently renovated. We never stayed in the park to watch the fireworks, because the parks were crazy busy at night, so the rooftop deck was awesome to have. There was a problem with the pool and hot tub on the first day but it was sorted out by the second day and the kids did like the fact that it was indoor so that we could be out of the sun. We usually just used the stairs, since it was only 2 flights. The continental breakfast was simple but the kids loved the danishes. Adults ate the toast and fruit (apples and oranges). The juice was good but the coffee definitely could have been better. The beds are on the hard side, but we were so tired, that we had no trouble sleeping. There was a Cold Stone Creamery Ice Cream joint next door, which we had several times. Denny's and IHOP were close as well, but we didn't go. We loved Mimi's Restaurant, Tony Romo's, Cheesecake Factory and Bubba Gump's. Wifi worked in the lobby. We went down to the corner at Katella to get our beer and snacks. We got our DLand passes right in the lobby. All-in-all we will definitely return for our next trip to the area.

Greatly done!
I can understand why this has been used in so many entries, as it is quite good. I KNEW I had heard this music from somewhere else and no I realize I first heard it from the "Zwill" game. Now of course, I've recognized it more for what it was supposed to be. It's always great to hear someone take an already great song and add more to it. While not one of my favorites, it's one of your better ones. You may not be the most prolific audio guy here, but you've submitted some really good work.

I hope you find my answers educational and even amusing. Looking for a particular answer? Check my archive and my FAQs. You can also follow me on Twitter: @AskDrVinny.
Dear Dr. Vinny,
I have seen tasting notes mentioning "macerated" red and black fruits. I wonder if this refers to a cold-soaking pre-fermentation "stew" or to lifted alcoholic post-fermentation fruit of a new wine, or to something else?
—Davy B., United Kingdom
Dear Davy,
You're correct that some winemakers use a process called "extended maceration" in which the grape skins, seeds and stems are left mingling with the wine to leach out more color, tannins and aromas.
Even if you might be able to guess when a wine had the step of extended maceration, it doesn't mean the fruit flavors will taste macerated. I think when the term "macerated" is used in a tasting note, it refers to the more general use of the term "macerate," which just means to soften or break down food, usually by soaking it with sugar or with vinegar or some other kind of acid.
For example, sometimes I pick out a note of strawberry in a wine. It might remind me of fresh strawberries, wild strawberries or strawberry jam. But sometimes it reminds me of the macerated strawberries (sliced, macerated with a little bit of sugar) I make for my strawberry shortcake.

It's quite common to run with just a front brake as your legs effectively become the rear brake on a fixed gear. I personally run with both, (basic Shimano long reach) just in case there's a real need to stop quicker than my legs will allow. (I think it may be a legal requirement to have at least the front brake, but I may just have made this up/read it on Wikipedia. )

Yes I totally agree with you. I don't defend Armstrong's lies but it has seemed that the other riders who won large sums of money and were later exposed as having doped seem to have got off far more lightly. Why is Bjarne Riis still listed as the TdF winner for 1996 when he's admitted that he doped?
I still think Greg is a top blike.

Take your point on all the others who have "boosted", whether it was amphetamines in the 60s or EPO in the 90s, but the sanctimonious "cancer survivor" crap is what really sealed Armstrong's doom for me.

Hmm... tricky... I think there's a few little ones rather than one big one yet.
First Dun Run last year for realising that I can cycle many more miles than previously imaginable.
Getting back on the bike as soon as physically allowed after a car door crash this April, which wasn't too difficult as I am a bit obsessed these days, but still commuting around London day and night and still passing the spot on the bike is something I'm quite chuffed with.
Also intentionally cycling up and down a bit of mountain on holiday this year - I'm still coming to terms with hills being a good thing, and this was something of a milestone.
They're kind of psychological achievements, I guess, I generally let the physical take care of itself. Actually, that observation's getting me thinking quite deeply now!

- Greg LeMond: Lance Armstrong should be in jail... and was top 30 rider at best1 year 9 weeks agoI think Greg's performances
I think Greg's performances were great. I love the way he came back from an accidental hunting gunshot wound to the lung to win TdF.
It is however important to remember that we live in a world of human beings, whatever superhero status they may have they are still human. I read the infamous Sports Illustrated article below. I read the improbable account about iron injections alone giving Greg a tremendous boost. I understand that EPO must be given along with iron to allow new blood cells to be built, but iron alone does not stimulate stimulate incredible new red blood cell growth. The season in question was the season just prior to general release of EPO to the public. The possibility that gunshot wounded Greg was used as a guinea pig seems credible, although he would still carry some responsibility even if that were so.
To be honest what I see when I read the article is Greg trying to admit that something incredible or miraculous happened by taking the iron shots. Through this admission he achieves penance, because he has stated all that he knew with absolute certainty, while leaving it up to the listener to consider the same doubts that he himself might have harbored.
" LeMond had a second injection of iron and started feeling stronger. He actually stayed within shouting distance of the leaders on a late mountain stage of the Tour of Italy, which was such a morale booster that he wanted an all-out test. Being hopelessly out of contention in the overall standings, LeMond decided to go for broke in the final stage of the Tour of Italy, an individual time trial of just under 34 miles. He would hold nothing back, start to finish. If he ran out of gas — "blew up," in cycling parlance — so be it. But LeMond didn't blow up. He finished second, a whopping minute and 18 seconds ahead of Fignon, the overall winner. "It changed my entire outlook," says LeMond. "Obviously, there was nothing wrong with me physically.""

- Changes to road design could improve the safety of cyclists1 year 9 weeks agoI live near a crossroads
I live near a crossroads where the behaviour of cyclists has been "constrained" by engineers who thought they knew where cyclists needed to go. Unfortunately, they seem to have assumed that no cyclists live on the hill where I and quite a few other cyclists live. Three of the four roads that meet at this junction have parallel cycle paths. The fourth road doesn't have one. I need to turn into this fourth road very regularly to get home, but the entire junction has been designed so that cyclists cannot leave the cycle path network and join this road without dismounting and using pedestrian crossings. So I have no legal way to get home on my bike unless I use the roads rather than the cycle paths to approach or leave this junction. So that's what I do. It saves me dismounting, crossing as a pedestrian, remounting and then doing a standing start on a slope. I'm pretty sure my behaviour is predictable for motorists when they see me in front of them before we reach the junction and they start concentrating on multiple traffic streams. I'm in the correct lane, I'm ready to heed the same traffic signals as they are, I'm signalling my intentions and everybody knows what's going to happen. In fact, I think I'm WAY more predictable than a lot of the other cyclists I see at this junction - plenty of cyclists revert to "wheeled pedestrian" mode on the junction arm that has no cycle paths, so it's hard to know what they are going to do: will they mount a footpath, roll across a pedestrian crossing on green and then a second one on red, or will they skip the RLJ at a crossing they aren't supposed to use anyway and stay on the footpath and ride up the hill on the narrow footpath on the wrong side of the road? Hard to tell.
You won't get predictable cycling if you build segregated infrastructure that isn't seamlessly integrated with non-segregated infrastructure where it needs to be. Constraining cyclists behaviour doesn't work when it constrains their ability to make journeys efficently for no good reason. People just find their own hopelessly unpredictable workarounds, some more or less legal and others illegal, and continue to follow their desire lines.

Unfortunately with a road layout like that you have to be thinking ahead and riding assertively, and it only takes a few moments of uncertainty to end up in an unsafe position.
Of course, that's also a bit of a hill there too, so a (rather unobservant) driver approaching from behind could miss the cyclist slowing down and falling into their manoeuvring space.

I hope the woman makes a good recovery despite what sound like horrific injuries.
Possibly pedantic and possibly wrong but that looks like a roll off skip truck to me not a tipper - no big deal both construction related, both often paid by the load and expected to be at site at specific times and take a lot of road space to turn.

This invention relates to methods and apparatus for x-ray mammography diagnostics.
Diagnostic X-ray equipment is well known for so called non-invasive examination. Equipment is available for industrial as well as medical applications. A most important element of such equipment is the generator of X-rays which is most typically a high vacuum tube with the capability of generating an electron beam and accelerating the beam toward a high speed rotating target where the impact produces X-rays which pass out of the vacuum envelope and are collimated and directed toward the patent or sample being studied. For standard X-ray diagnostic tubes, electric fields of 150 KV/inch to 300 KV/inch are employed which are produced in conjunction with DC voltages of 75 to 150 KV. Typically the distance between the cathode and the rotating target is on the order of 0.5 to 1 inch. It is known in such standard purpose X-ray tubes to superimpose electron beams produced from more than one filament onto the same focal spot on the anode target. In such standard purpose X-ray tubes this focussing is accomplished using a pair of cathode cups employing two and three slot designs. Typically, the slots have been machined grooves which form two cups which are symmetrically displaced about an axis. The cathode filaments are normally mounted adjacent the intersection of the smallest and next smallest slot. When the filament is mounted inside of the smallest slot, its emission is reduced because of space charge effects. The dimensions of the slots and the distance between the center of the slots to enable focusing of the beams from adjacent cups to a single spot has heretofore required at least 0.5 inch of anode to cathode spacing.
Mammography X-ray diagnostics is a special application for which a specific mammography X-ray tube has become standard. Specifically, the mammography tube is very much shorter in overall length than the standard X-ray tubes. The mammography tube is particularly designed to be able to have its X-ray exit port very close to the patient's breast to obtain the highest resolution and contrast picture possible.
Superimposition of electron beams from adjoining cathode cups has not been heretofore achieved in mammography X-ray tubes because the slot dimensions necessary in standard two slot cathode cup configurations required the center of the slots to be too far apart to allow the electron beams to become superimposed over the shorter anode to cathode distance employed in mammography tubes. For mammography tubes, the DC voltage employed is only 25 to 30 thousand volts. Because the shorter anode to cathode distances employed in these tubes, i.e. less than 0.3 inches, the fields are 110 KV/inch to 130 KV/inch.
In view of the above problems, currently designed mammography X-ray tubes are not capable of providing high intensity electron beams and are generally considered cathode emission limited. This requires the typical mammograph examination for large spot applications to take 1-2 seconds and for small spot, high resolution examinations to take approximately 5 seconds. The high resolution, 5 second examination time, introduces significant opportunity for picture blurring due to patient movement or other mechanical and environmental vibrations. Specifically, cathode filaments in mammography tubes with 0.1 mm focii typically could deliver only 25-30 ma and for a typical 0.3 mm focii could deliver only approximately 100 ma. Since the high voltage employed is 25 KV, the target anodes are not fully loaded. A three to four inch rotating anode can handle these power levels at 3000 RPM. Since the mammography X-ray tubes are capable of rotating their target anodes at speeds up to 9000 RPM, and the power handling capacity at this higher speed is 70% greater than at 3000 RPM, a technique to provide greater electron beam intensity can be accommodated by the existing mammography X-ray tube design by increasing the anode speed.
It is the object of this invention to enable shorter mammography patient exposure time and to avoid movement blurring effects.
It is a further object of this invention to provide a method and apparatus for increasing electron beam intensity in a mammography X-ray tube.
It is a feature of this invention to simultaneously excite a plurality of cathode filaments and to superimpose electron beams so formed on the same region of said X-ray tube rotating target anode.
It is a further feature of this invention that the cathode cups are formed in triple slot configurations.
FIG. 1 is a cross-section of a standard prior art mammography X-ray tube.
FIG. 2 is a schematic of electron optics for superimposing small filament and large filament beams for a standard diagnostic X-ray tube having anode to cathode distances greater than 0.5 inch.
FIG. 3A is the front view of a preferred cathode assembly of our invention.
FIG. 3B is a side view of Section A--A of FIG. 3A.
FIG. 3C is a schematic of filament connections of the cathode assembly of FIG. 3A.
FIG. 4 is the preferred cathode assembly of FIG. 3A showing its detailed dimensions.
FIG. 5 is a schematic of the electron optics of an embodiment of our invention.
With reference to FIG. 1, the mammography X-ray tube has a vacuum envelope 1 containing a rotating anode 3, a motor rotor coil 4 for providing high speed drive power for said anode in conjunction with stator coils 5 of said motor. Cathode assembly 2 is offset from the axis 10 for providing a beam of electrons 8 which are accelerated to impact the sloped surface of the target anode in a fixed rectangle line in space which provides an output rectangular X-ray beam 11. The high voltage standoff 7 connects high voltage to the anode, i.e., 25 to 30 kv, through a bearing (not shown) between the rotor support 12 and the rotor 4 for coupling the high voltage to said rotating target 3 to create an accelerating field between the anode and cathode. Because the X-ray tube for mammography applications employs a lower energy X-ray, the accelerating voltage is considerably lower than in standard X-ray. The distance between the cathode assembly and the target in such mammography tubes is less than 0.3 inches. The cathode assembly 2 filament current is supplied to the cathode assembly from connector 14 via conductors 13. One side of each filament is normally grounded to the housing. Space 15 on the inside of the housing which is not within the vacuum envelope is filled with a dielectric oil. The elastomeric cup 16 is able to deform to accommodate temperature induced changes in the oil and to maintain oil pressure.
In the prior art standard X-ray tube, the distance between the cathode assembly 2 and the target is long enough, as shown in FIG. 2, i.e. D>0.5 inch, in cooperation with the higher electric field gradient and the double slot and triple slot cathode cups to superimpose the beams from the small filament 26 and the large filament 27 to a single region 29 on the target anode. In the prior art standard X-ray tube, the two filaments are not excited simultaneously but rather they provide the ability to select a high or a low resolution focused X-ray beam which will exist the X-ray tube on exactly the same center line. As indicated in FIG. 2, a symmetrical triple slot 21, 22 and 23 filament cup configuration for the smaller diameter filament is coupled together with a symmetrical double slotted 24 and 25 filament cup configuration for the larger diameter helix filament 27. Note that the prior art cups are each completely symmetrical and separated somewhat, 12 at their closest contact.
In contrast, the Mammography X-ray tubes have not been able to superimpose both the large and small filaments using the double and triple slot design because the distance D is smaller and the field gradient is lower. Electron optics computer modeling is not successful to provide adequate calculations to solve this problem in the X-ray tube because the helical cathode filaments do not emit electrons either uniformly in energy or direction. Accordingly, we have empirically discovered a technique that makes it possible to focus different size beams as well as equal size beams to superimpose beams on the same region of the anode of a mammography X-ray tube.
With reference to FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B is disclosed a novel cathode assembly for use with a mammography X-ray tube which enables superposition of a plurality of electron beams on a common anode region. The novel cathode assembly, with reference to FIG. 3B, comprises a first triple slot 44, 45 and 46 filament cup which intersects a second triple slot 41, 42 and 43 filament cup. Neither cup is symmetrical since the intersection of the two cups along line 56 interrupts the slots 44 and 41. Slots 45 and 46 are parallelepiped shaped with rectangular cross sections, and slots 41 and 44 are prismoids with trapezoid cross section.
In the preferred embodiments of FIG. 3A, 3B and 3C, matching filament 32 and 34 are mounted is slots 46 and 43 respectively and are matching in diameter and all other characteristics. As shown, in FIG. 3C, there are two filaments in each slot. In slot 43, filaments 34 is the large diameter filament and filament 33 is a small diameter filament. In slot 46, as stated, filament 32 is a large diameter filament matching filament 34 and filament 31 is a smaller diameter filament matching the smaller diameter filament 33.
Filaments 34 and 32 are connected electrically in parallel by connecting terminals 40 and 39 together. Terminals 37 and 38 are common and are also connected together. Filaments 31 and 33 are also connected electrically in parallel by connecting terminals 36 and 35 together.
External controls connected via connector 7 enables the selection of the pair of larger diameter filaments or the pair of small diameter filaments to be simultaneously excited to create electron beams which are superimposed.
The two larger diameter beams will superimpose at a first focal rectangle and the two smaller diameter beams will superimpose at a second displaced focal rectangle.
By combining via superposition the electron beams from two filaments simultaneously, we are able to essentially double the beam current and substantially increase the X-ray intensity in both the small spot 0.1 mm focii and in the larger 0.3 mm focii mode. This substantially reduces the amount of exposure time required for a picture which greatly enhances the ability to avoid motion artifacts.
FIG. 4 gives the exact dimensions of the preferred cathode cup configuration for use with the Varian mammography X-ray tube Model M143-SP according to this invention.
With reference to FIG. 5, an alternate embodiment is illustrated in which a small diameter filament 26' is superimposed in a mammography X-ray tube on the same focii as a larger filament 27'. In FIG. 5, both filament cups are triple slotted configuration. However, the cup slot dimensions in FIG. 5 are not identical as is the configuration of FIG. 3B. Also, the two cups are not equally displaced from the center line. In FIG. 3B, both cups are tipped 25� inward which will not be the case for FIG. 5. The FIG. 5 embodiment is not intended to simultaneously excite the two filaments 26' and 27' but provides the alternate selection capability of the large focii or small focii on the same spot in a mammography X-ray tube.
The invention herein has been described in conjunction with the specific embodiments of the drawings. It is not our intention to limit our invention to any specific embodiment, and the scope of our invention should be determined by our claims.
