No one builds a hot rod to save gas, but downgrading to bare essentials and stiffing your roommate on rent will only get you so far before it's time to park that 10-mpg big-block. Even when gas was still cheap several decades ago, Gear Vendors recognized these issues, and in response, engineered a bolt-on overdrive unit. These slick gizmos attach to the back of just about any transmission, and add an overdrive gear that can be actuated from inside the cabin with the flick of a switch. The really cool part, however, is the ratio-splitting ability offered by a Gear Vendors unit, which adds a host of underdrive ratios to the mix. This lets you keep the motor in the fat part of the powerband, which explains why Gear Vendors units have become very popular in hard-core racing applications. That's no joke, as Gear Vendors overdrives have been popping up in 6- and 7-second drag cars in recent years. To learn more about everything these trick overdrive units have to offer, we called up Rick Johnson at Gear Vendors to solicit his expertise. Here's what he had to say:
MPG Improvement
With gas prices spiking once again, many hot rodders are contemplating upgrading to an overdrive transmission. A Gear Vendors overdrive unit lowers engine rpm by just over 22 percent by utilizing a 0.778:1 overdrive ratio. This means an engine that is turning 3,500 rpm at cruising speed would see a 777-rpm reduction in engine speed. At 4,000 rpm, the reduction increases to 888. Interestingly, since the mathematical reciprocal of 0.778 is 1.286, maintaining the same rpm after turning on the overdrive unit would represent a 28.6 percent increase in velocity. For example, if you were going 65 mph and turned on the overdrive while holding the same engine speed, the vehicle would go 84 mph.
Overdrive uses the torque of the engine to more efficiently propel the vehicle, and is the single biggest improvement in mileage you can achieve with a performance part. Typically, a naturally aspirated engine with a carburetor will achieve close to a 28.6 percent improvement in fuel mileage with a 3.42:1-or-higher (numerically) ring-and-pinion ratio. If you have 4.10:1 rear gear, for example, the car will cruise just as efficiently and with the same rpm as if you had 3.19:1 gears when the overdrive is engaged. Forced-induction vehicles will get an even greater improvement. A small roots or centrifugal supercharged car will likely get a 50 percent improvement, and a big 8-71 blower will typically see a 100 percent improvement because you are slowing down the blower and taking advantage of large torque values.
How it Works
A Gear Vendors overdrive unit is simply a single planetary gear combined with a direct drive. There are 77 teeth cut into the drop forged annulus ring gear, and 22 teeth on the sun gear, which is attached to a common vertex cone clutch. In direct drive, all forward force is carried by an 18-element Cooper roller clutch that can handle over 2,500 hp. When the solenoid closes the pressure circuit, the clutch is pulled against a brake ring with 700 psi of pressure, which stops the sun gear. With the sun gear stopped, the planet gear must advance the ring gear by 22 of its 77 total teeth. So if you were to look inside the overdrive at speed, it would seem to be turning about one-third of the speed of the driveshaft.
Part of the appeal of a Gear Vendors overdrive unit is that in addition to using it as a top gear, you can also control it manually in any gear. This is an important benefit as drivers enjoy more gears for the autocross or twisty roads, where having closer ratios improves car control and fun factor. Internally, there is a plunger pump driven by the input shaft of the Gear Vendors overdrive. A relief valve keeps residual pressure at 30 psi in the system, and within a few pump strokes, that pressure increases to 700 psi when an integral 12V solenoid closes the relief valve. So, in-shifts are directly related to driveshaft speed, which allows for some delay in First gear, a very slight delay in Second gear, and then a near instant shift in Third gear. Out-shifts of the overdrive are achieved when the internal pressure inside the system is dumped, resulting in instantaneous shifts. This makes the ratio-splitting timing easy for the driver.
All the newest factory automatic transmissions of five or more speeds operate on this same principle. They have more than one overdrive gear and two underdrive ratios, and then just turn on different combinations for each gear. This way, four planetaries can yield up to nine ratio. Yes, Gear Vendors did all this first, but now 20 years later, ratio splitting with automatics and dual-clutch manuals is becoming more common at the OE level.
Reducing Parasitic Loss
When designing transmissions and overdrive units, durability and reliability are often at odds with minimizing noise and parasitic power loss. Gear Vendors employs several techniques to reach a happy medium between these design goals. This is evidenced by the fact that our overdrive units require just 1 hp to turn for every 400 hp put through them. A large part of this efficiency is due to the Gear Vendors common vertex clutch design. This clutch is a single member, meaning that it shifts with very high pressure compared to the clutch pack in a conventional automatic transmission. The advantage of a clutch pack is that you can achieve a wider ratio spread, and slowly bring in ratio changes for smooth shifts that grandma would like. The single-element clutch is ideal for a short ratio. It results in a firm engagement, which is why a Gear Vendors unit doesn't need a separate fluid cooler and operates on just 3/4 quart of ATF. Since a Gear Vendors unit does not share the same fluid as the rest of the transmission, if you break the trans, it will not hurt your Gear Vendors one. Ultra-low parasitic loss is the key to long life, and Gear Vendors–equipped off-road race trucks have survived 7,500-mile events with zero reliability issues.

Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.

I have had my S3 since November 2012 and I have never gotten any severe weather alerts. I know for a fact I should have gotten one because my boyfriend also has the S3 and he got some today because of severe thunderstroms starting tonight and tomorrow. He said he has never turned on anything or got a special app to give him weather alerts. Why dont i get any? Is there somewhere in settings I need to go to turn on the alerts? I have tried to look for it in my weather widget (the regular one that came with the phone) but i dont see anything there in settings and i dont see anything in the regular settings. PLEASE HELP!
Posted 30 January 2013 - 00:00
From my understanding that is done by the carrier and not the phone, but just make sure it's not an app he has that u don't have.
If its from the carrier do u both have numbers from the same area code?

It is not tied to your phone's number, area code, or any app.
The CMAS system is supposed to send you severe weather alerts based solely on the location of your phone (likely determined by the location of the cell tower you are connected to).
When I got my SGS3 back in July I too was anticipating getting these severe weather txts since both this phone and my carrier (Sprint) support it. I have never received a thing either and yes, emergency alerts is turned on in messaging.
And then people are complaining about getting too many even after the bad weather stuff has already passed.
- Do you have the same updates he has?
- Was your phone on at the time?
Go to your messaging app and hit settings and see if you can see Cell Broadcast stuff there (or check Settings - More... - Cell Broadcast - that's how it's on Standard AOSP, dunno about TouchWiz).
I have a Nexus 4 and I don't get them either. It supposed to work in that ANY phone that connects to a tower within a specific area should get the broadcast (as long as the phone has the software to accept it). I've seen people posted about them for AMBER alerts and all that but I never get them on my phone, dunno why either.
Stay safe though, I have my friends at GMU also and all over the DMV area, used to live in Bethesda!

Go to your phone store and contact a rep and he/she will help you getting the alerts back so you will be able to get the alerts when the next actual event happens in your area.
Maybe your phone might be having a bug or corrupted during the production process... they may be able to give you a replacement phone.
I had my phone replaced because the phone I had was overheat... so I have one now and runs fine.
By the way, did you try the test alerts in the messaging settings? If you get nothing, then your phone is probably corrupted or has a bug. Contact your provider for a replacement or a fix.
Good luck.

i dont see anything for test alerts! I really hope its not corupted! i dont want to have to reset everything and install all my apps again and customize everything

It's probably based on your GPS location. Even though you guys where right next to each other, if your GPS was disabled, you would not get the alert. GPS along with the local EAS system tend to work hand in hand. Thats why the GPS can get updated traffic reports on the fly and other details because of the EAS system.

On Thursday, Col. Bud Day will be dressed in his Air Force uniform for the last time and laid to rest in what could be the largest funeral Northwest Florida has ever seen.
The services for the distinguished veteran of three wars will be open to the public at the request of Day's wife, Doris.
"She decided she wanted this to be open to the public in order to accommodate everyone," said Ray Angerman, pastor of the Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Shalimar where Day and his family have attended for about 35 years.
Angerman will officiate the funeral, which will be held at the Emerald Coast Convention Center on Thursday at 11 a.m. Visitation will start at 9 a.m.
Sen. John McCain, who shared a cell with Day in Vietnam when they were prisoners of war, is expected to speak at the service, Angerman said.
See a gallery of photos from Col. Day's life. >>
See a video of McCain's remarks on Day's passing >>
Angerman and a crew will be packing up and moving the church's altar and its eternal flame to the convention center for the funeral.
"(Doris) wanted it in a church, but we said we'll bring the church to the convention center," he said.
Last Sunday, the front-row seat that Day occupied every week he was able sat empty — a void in the congregation. The 88-year-old had died at home on Saturday after a battle with cancer.
"It was very difficult to get through the service without him," said Angerman, who has known Day and his family since they first started attending the church in 1978. "I feel like there is a piece of our church missing right now; there's a big hole."
Day continued coming even up to the last Sunday before he died.
"He had to sit in the back row because he couldn't walk to the front, but he wanted to be here," Angerman said. "He could only walk from the car so far, but he wasn't about to be pushed in a wheelchair; he's too strong a man."
At the church, Day was nicknamed the National Treasure, but he wanted to be treated just like everyone else, Angerman said.
"There were no autograph signings on Sunday mornings," he said. "Although I always wondered why there weren't."
Preparations are also being made for Day's burial in Pensacola. After Thursday's funeral, a procession will travel down U.S. Highway 98 to Barrancas National Cemetery at Pensacola Naval Air Station, where Day will be buried with military honors at 3 p.m.
A number of dignitaries, including U.S. congressmen and high-ranking military officials, are expected to attend the services.
Day has been hailed as a hero for his service in Vietnam, as well as World War II and Korea. He has received about 70 decorations, including the Medal of Honor and the Air Force Cross, which made him the most-decorated airman still living, according to his family.
He spent five years and seven months as a prisoner of war in Vietnam, where he was tortured, nearly starved and kept in squalid conditions but refused to reveal sensitive information.
Day's last assignment was as vice commander of the 33rd Fighter Wing at Eglin Air Force Base, and he and his family settled in Northwest Florida. Here, he worked as an attorney and as a veterans advocate.
In the early 2000s, he helped pressure Congress to make it easier for veterans to receive promised medical benefits.
Day will be the fourth Medal of Honor recipient to be buried at Barrancas.
He was eligible for burial in Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia but opted to stay closer to home so it would be easier for Doris to visit his gravesite, Angerman said.
Barrancas, where more than 44,000 veterans and their spouses are buried, is planning for the largest service it has ever hosted, said cemetery director Angela Nash.
The largest service Barrancas has had involved up to about 500 attendees, Nash, the cemetery director said.
Thursday's service is expected to be much larger, she said.
She said everyone wanting to attend will be allowed on base and into the cemetery, but that does not guarantee they will be able to see the service.
"We won't turn anyone away," Nash said. "We'll handle what comes."
People wanting to attend should bring photo identification to get on base.
Day's will be the first funeral service held at the Emerald Coast Convention Center. It will be in two adjoining ballrooms with seating capacity for about 1,500 people.
The center's doors will open at 8 a.m. and the ballroom will open at 8:45 a.m.
A flyover is scheduled during the service.
Following that, a procession led by the Patriot Riders and the Rolling Thunder motorcycle brigades will travel to Pensacola for the burial.
On Monday, McCain spoke about Day on the U.S. Senate floor.
"Those who knew Bud after the war could see how tough he was," McCain said. "But, my God, to have known him in prison — confronting our enemies day-in and day-out; never, ever yielding — defying men who had the power of life and death over us; to witness him sing the national anthem in response to having a rifle pointed at his face — well that is something to behold. Unforgettable.
"No one had more guts than Bud or greater determination to do his duty and then some — to keep faith with his country and his comrades whatever the cost."
He said that despite knowing Day had grown older, he wasn't prepared for his death.
"For some reason, I could never imagine Bud yielding to anything — even, I thought, to the laws of nature. Tough old bird that he was, I always thought he would outlive us all."
Day often reflected that it would have been impossible to make it through his years in prison if he did not have his faith in God, Angerman said.
In an interview last year with Lutheran Witness, he talked about how his faith carried him through.
"I have been frightened many times. I don't make any excuses or apologies for that," he said. "However, I experienced that there was physically a calm that God gave me in the midst of trouble."
Day said his faith in God did not falter.
"No matter what our enemies tried to tell me or what I heard on the radio, God never allowed me to believe them or to question my faith," he said.
Day is survived by his wife of 64 years; his children, retired Air Force Capt. Steve Day, retired Air Force Lt. Col. George Day, Sandra Hearn and Sonja LaJeunesse; and his 14 grandchildren.
In lieu of flowers, Day's family has suggested donations be made to Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, the Wounded Warrior Project or the Gary Sinise Foundation.

A snowboard manufacturing company out of Huntington Beach, Signal Snowboards, has a cool little show they produce called, Every Third Thursday where they get weird and have fun (which is right up our alley). For this particular episode, they chose to make a surfboard/snowboard hybrid—something that could be ridden on both mountain and in the ocean. With Rob Machado as their test pilot in the surf and Baldface Lodge in Canada acting as their canvas, we think the bros at Signal Snowboards may be on to—or just on—something…

N. Springfield biomass project dealt heavy blowBy Susan Smallheer
Staff Writer | November 09,2013NORTH SPRINGFIELD In a major blow to the proposed North Springfield biomass electric generating plant, a hearing officer for the Vermont Public Service Board has recommended that the project be denied a state certificate of public good.
In a 124-page ruling released late Friday afternoon, PSB hearing officer John Cotter said that impacts from truck traffic was the reason he was recommending the project be denied.
The project will unduly interfere with the orderly development of the region based on its trucking-related impacts to the local community, he wrote.
I am cognizant of the fact that the project would provide measurable benefits to the surrounding community and the state as a whole if it were constructed and operated, Cotter wrote, citing increased jobs, wages and tax revenues.
I cannot conclude that there are reasonable conditions that could be imposed to alleviate the undue impacts of the significant increase in truck traffic on two local streets leading to the entrance of the North Springfield Industrial Park, he added.
If the three-person PSB doesnt adopt his recommendation, Cotter wrote, it should impose many conditions on the permit.
Earlier this year, the town of Springfield entered into an agreement with the developers of the wood-fired plant over the construction of a new access road to the project.
The North Springfield Sustainable Energy Project, a joint project of Winstanley Enterprises and Weston Solutions, wants to build a 37-megawatt wood-fired power plant in the North Springfield Industrial Park. Wood chips would be trucked to the project, which would be built next to the former Fellows Corp. building, now owned and operated by Winstanley.
The project would also produce low-cost steam heat for the businesses in the industrial park, as well as a thermal loop for residences in an area of North Springfield.
But nearby residents formed the North Springfield Action Group to fight the project, saying it would be a blight on the landscape, as well as pumping tons of toxic pollutants and particulate into the atmosphere, harming the regions air quality.
They also raised questions about truck traffic and impact on the areas groundwater.
Cotters recommendation explicitly said that his finding on the North Springfield project was not an indictment of all wood-based biomass projects in Vermont.
Nothing in this proposal for decision should be construed to mean I have concluded that no commercial-scale, woody-biomass electric generation facility could be approved for construction and operation in Vermont, he wrote. To the contrary, I recognize that, as a general proposition, a woody-biomass electric generation facility could occupy an appropriate place in Vermonts energy portfolio.
Robert Kischko, president of the North Springfield Action Group, said he was pleased with Cotters recommendation, and declined further comment.
The North Springfield Action Group will not have any additional comments at this time other than we are extremely pleased with the hearing officers recommendation to deny the project, he said.
He said the group will provide additional commentary to the PSB, as requested by Cotter.
Dan Ingold, senior technical director for Weston Solutions and spokesman for the project, couldnt be reached for comment Friday evening.
Last week Ingold told the annual meeting of Springfield Regional Development Corp. that he expected a favorable ruling from the PSB board in a week or two and that construction on the project would begin next spring.
Ingold said the construction work would bring 600 jobs to the region, with a full-time staff of 25 people at the facility, and dozens more in the wood industry.
The 124-page decision came after a series of lengthy hearings that were held before Cotter and other PSB employees, but not the three-member board itself.

The sleep mask really does block out light. The only drawback for me is the fit around the sides of the mask as I sleep on my side. The padding is a bit uncomfortable.
on 8/11/14
The good news first. Yes you can keep eyes open and still be in the dark, yes you can sleep even on sides. Would recommend the strap wrapped around your noggin at below ear if needed. Really comfortable and functional. The mild bad news- it is memory foam so it gets a tad warm. Solution is to keep it very loose allowing air circulation. They need to perhaps have one next edition with a more porous mask/cover and the memory foam in the cover to be in segments half inch long half inch empty, like beads with a space on a necklace instead of one big piece of memory foam on the bottom as it would allow air circulation.

I have been using one of these eye masks since Brookstone used to sell them. They are awesome in blocking light, but I also noticed that some wrinkles around my right eye disappeared after I started using the mask. I sleep on my right side and I guess the mask cushions my eyes so that I am not getting "pressure wrinkles" where the side of my face hits the pillow. I will use this product forever for just that reason. Much cheaper and more effective than wrinkle cream!

I agree with all the previous reviews. I use this sleep mask every night, and it has really helped with my insomnia. Great for traveling too -- completely blocks out all sources of light on a plane.
A+++ definitely worth trying -- and an excellent value.

Ditto to her comments. Mu calls the eyeshades my woooooogie. Definitly have a tough time sleeping without them, AAAAA++
on 5/21/12
Received as a Christmas gift ~5 years ago. I use it everynight, and absolutely love it. I've tried many other eye masks before, but the tempur-pedic mask is by far the very best. To keep it clean, I wash it in cold water in the washing machine, and hang it to dry.
on 3/19/12
I have been using one of these to help my sleep for many years now and it has changed my life. Seriously. I sleep so much better now. Actually, I cannot sleep without one. I give this the highest review for a product that I could ever give, if I could give it an A+++!

Rumor now is that when/if Y2J returns, he wants to reform JERISHOW with next return!!!
Y2J has said in countless interviews Show was fav partner and he wanted to reform tag team with next return if WWE didnt want him to be face.
I think this is great, as JERISHOW was one of my fav tag teams EVER. and wwe wants to reform the tag team division.

Brian 'Head' Welch
With the release of "the path of totality" it seems KoRn has a new message to share besides emotional torture, and that's waking up the masses. Majority of the tracks on this album highlight the cruelty and corruption in the world or, more specifically, american government.
Since Brian's departure, he has made his own music that sends the same message, waking up the masses, stop being sheep. Since both KoRn and Brian are sending the same message, they should obviously get back together and amplify the truth. By now, Brian should be less dependent on drugs an alcohol and less likely to fall back into the addiction because of KoRn. I say they should definitely get brian back in. I miss his sound in KoRn. maybe then they can release an album that takes the sound back to KoRn's roots and truly please the KoRn fans that have departed since KoRn's change in sound.
If there was ever a good time for this, it's now.

Re: Brian 'Head' Welch
i like the new sound. if you want to hear the old sound, listen to the old albums
RE: Brian 'Head' Welch
Ya, that would be sweet to have Head back. Unfortunately I'm probably one of the few who also really wants David back. Ray is a cool drummer and all but he doesn't have the Korn feel David does.
Re: Brian 'Head' Welch
I called that shit! It was like a emotional connection. I could feel the reunion in my testicles. I knew it!
RE: Brian 'Head' Welch
Welcome back!
Re: Brian 'Head' Welch
Just coming back for two shows doesn't mean much but it will be great to have some new bootlegs/clips of head with korn at rock am ring/park, can't wait, THANK YOU HEAD FOR DOING THIS, Must take a lot of strength from him to come back but he will rock out and have fun I'm sure, they need to play some old songs Like B.B.K Kill You My Gift to you, all those songs that KoRn can't really pull off without him!
Re: Brian 'Head' Welch
Is there a confirmation of when and where they will be playing?
Re: Brian 'Head' Welch
Is there a confirmation of when and where they will be playing?
It's on Blabbermouth, Loudwire, and korn fan sites!
Rock Am Ring 2013 Rock Im Park 2013!!!
Re: Brian 'Head' Welch
So wish I could go, he's the only member I have never seen. May have to break the bank. :s
~\\Make me bad//~
Re: Brian 'Head' Welch
Ha! !
Just what i Needed !! Korn almost complete in Germany.... can't wait for the show.
you need those 2 original guitars sounding together, it just change everything.. also david has to play men,,.
putting back together the lost pieces !
saw korn in 2008 in buenos aires, now korn with head in germany, can't ask for anything else !
Re: Brian 'Head' Welch
amazing i hope see korn in lisbon on 2013 with head again.... and i hope them head keep on the band :) you are a god on a guitar
RE: Brian 'Head' Welch
ive been waiting for this a long time but its going to happen in germany even more a disapointment the the day i heard "HEAD QUIT" for a reunion like this it should be at home
and Path to Totality sucks that album is not korn at all never will be
Re: Brian 'Head' Welch
BRING BACK DAVID SILVERIA AS WELL KORN, I Love Ray But just bring David back for a few shows, It's not a complete reunion without him, many people want DAVID back as well, if you are gonna do a reunion do it right, not like the sabbath reunion without Bill Ward! Please at least ask David don't make it a special performance for head that's lame head as a special guest he's an actual member of the band they shouldn't label it as special guest, PLEASE A FULL REUNION KORN LOVE YOU GUYS! lol
Re: Brian 'Head' Welch
That's like if Tony Iommi didn't play with sabbath for 10 years and he came back to play some shows they are just gonna do the damn shows and have a good time he's not gonna be labeled as a special guest, oh well it all comes down to promotion and ticket sales and that's good advertising that's why they did that...

This documentary is about the descendants of the most powerful figures in the Nazi regime: men and women who were left a legacy that permanently associates them with one of the greatest crimes in history. What is it like for them to have grown up with a name that immediately raises images of murder and genocide? How do they cope with the fact that they are the children of ... literally, not just metaphorically.

2) There are plenty of strong heel character anyway. Someone like Kofi or Zack would just be ignored as a heel turn. "Oh look, Kofi's gone bad. Was that a new outfit on AJ?."
3) Reigns would make a shockingly bad face, compared with Rollins.
4) Henry is above being an enforcer and Khali is laughable as a heel.
5) How the fuck did Daniel Bryan stumble into this clusterfuck of an idea?

By now, you all should have read that there is no link between the MMR and autism - indeed, a group of Americans have lost a lawsuit claiming a link. All the available evidence (including meta studies) shows no evidence, and indeed disproves any causal link. On the other hand, there is a clear link between a decline in uptake of the MMR and incidents of measles (in particular) and deaths from measles. The MMR, is for the vast, vast majority of children (not to mention society at large) a very good thing.
On 9 January, Jeni Barnett did a show on LBC doubting the wisdom of using the MMR combined vaccine. Indeed, she advocated letting children get measles, and only dealing with those who will die from it (and you know how, exactly). Let me quote the woman herself:
Jeni Barnett wrote:...back in the day, children got measles, children got mumps. I'm not suggesting - I am not suggesting - that we got backwards where some children, where we have one in fifteen children die of it. And that one person in fifteen is the one we have to be looking at and wondering why and dealing with it. But if, as a human being, you decide you do not want to give your child a vaccination, you should, in a democracy, have that right to day no.
(Links to the transcript are available here - also on the link below, where there are various links including to the original audio.
Dr Ben Goldacre, on his wonderful, wonderful blog www.badscience.net, objected. He did so in a slightly amusing, yet reasoned, educated way, and posted a link of the 30 or 40 minutes of Ms Barnett's programme that discussed the MMR. The transcript is worth reading in full. LBC, rather than admitting that Ms Barnett was misguided at best, and wrong and dangerous at worst (remember, MMR take up rates in London have dropped below 50%), have threatened legal action against Dr Goldacre, for including the broadcast in his blog.
A full account of what happened can be found here - and the url bears repeating in full:
http://www.badscience.net/2009/02/lbc-m ... ephen-fry/
There is a support group on Facebook, but I'd urge everyone to send an email to Global Radio (who owns LBC) to tell them they're being numbwits (in politer terms, of course). [/rant]
Right, you can return to your regularly scheduled programme.

Super-Kamiokande, or Super-K for short, is a neutrino observatory in the city of Hida, Gifu Prefecture, Japan. The observatory was designed to search for proton decay, study solar and atmospheric neutrinos, and keep watch for supernovas in the Milky Way Galaxy.
The Super-K is located underground in Kamioka Mining and Smelting Co.'s Mozumi Mine in Hida's Kamioka area. It consists of a cylindrical stainless steel tank that is tall and in diameter holding 50,000 tons of ultra-pure water. The tank volume is divided by a stainless steel superstructure into an inner detector (ID) region that is in diameter and in height and outer detector (OD) which consists of the remaining tank volume. Mounted on the superstructure are 11,146 photomultiplier tubes (PMT) in diameter that face the ID and 1885 PMTs that face the OD. There is a barrier that optically separates the ID and OD.
A neutrino interaction with the electrons or nuclei of water can produce a charged particle that moves faster than the speed of light in water (although of course slower than the speed of light in vacuum). This creates a cone of light known as Cherenkov radiation, which is the optical equivalent to a sonic boom. The Cherenkov light is projected as a ring on the wall of the detector and recorded by the PMTs. Using the timing and charge information recorded by each PMT, the interaction vertex, ring direction and flavor of the incoming neutrino is determined. From the sharpness of the edge of the ring the type of particle can be inferred. The multiple scattering of electrons is large, so electromagnetic showers produce fuzzy rings. Highly relativistic muons, in contrast, travel almost straight through the detector and produce rings with sharp edges.
The detector, named KamiokaNDE for Kamioka Nucleon Decay Experiment, was a tank in height and in width, containing 3,000 tons of pure water and about 1,000 photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) attached to its inner surface. The detector was upgraded, starting in 1985, to allow it to observe solar neutrinos. As a result, the detector (KamiokaNDE-II) had become sensitive enough to detect neutrinos from SN 1987A, a supernova which was observed in the Large Magellanic Cloud in February 1987, and to observe solar neutrinos in 1988. The ability of the Kamiokande experiment to observe the direction of electrons produced in solar neutrino interactions allowed experimenters to directly demonstrate for the first time that the sun was a source of neutrinos.
Despite successes in neutrino astronomy and neutrino astrophysics, Kamiokande did not achieve its primary goal, the detection of proton decay. Higher sensitivity was also necessary to obtain high statistical confidence in its results. This led to the construction of Super-Kamiokande, with fifteen times the water and ten times as many PMTs as Kamiokande. Super-Kamiokande started operation in 1996.
The Super-Kamiokande Collaboration announced the first evidence of neutrino oscillation in 1998. This was the first experimental observation consistent with the theory that the neutrino has non-zero mass, a possibility that theorists had speculated about for years.
On November 12, 2001, about 6,600 of the photomultiplier tubes in the Super-Kamiokande detector imploded, apparently in a chain reaction as the shock wave from the concussion of each imploding tube cracked its neighbours. The detector was partially restored by redistributing the photomultiplier tubes which did not implode, and by adding protective acrylic shells that are hoped would prevent another chain reaction from recurring (SuperKamiokande-II).
In July 2005, preparations began to restore the detector to its original form by reinstalling about 6,000 PMTs. The work was completed in June 2006, whereupon the detector was renamed SuperKamiokande-III.
