TSUNAMI WAVES
Tsunamis are often confused with many other types of waves. Here are descriptions of the different kinds:
tidal wave - These waves are caused by the moon’s gravitational attraction. They are generally only a few feet high, although higher waves are found during the new and full moons. They can rise 5 to 6 feet above normal when the new and full moon occurs at the same time as the moon’s perigee (the time when the moon is closest to the earth). Tidal waves are harmless unless accompanied by storm conditions or on unusual coastlines, where the topography creates daily tides as high as 50 feet.
tidal bore - These are quickly advancing front waves of incoming tides and are found in shallow estuaries. It is usually a foaming water wall that signals approaching tides. The height can vary from a few inches to a few feet, depending on the tide’s strength, the attraction of the moon, and the geography of the estuary. In the Tsientang River in China, bores have been recorded at 25 feet traveling 13 knots.
internal waves/underwater waves - These are the strong, vertical motions that a current causes. They usually occur when the current is passing through a narrow passage between a pair of islands, diving into a deep ocean trench, or when two underwater currents of differing density merge together. One can detect internal waves from the surface by noting patch of strong turbulence, which can extend as long as 125 miles. Beneath the ocean surface, the wave, or water of different density, can measure as high as 300 feet. Some experts think that these are responsible for the disappearance of some submarines, causing them to drop below safe traveling depths.
storm waves/sea surges - These are wind-driven waves created on top of normal tides, and are often caused by hurricanes and cyclones. They reach 30 to 40 feet in height, producing a constant pounding motion as opposed to the tsunami’s characteristic single huge wave.
seiche - This is the rhythmic vibration of water in an enclosed water body. Water moves slowly back and froth from shore to shore in waves no higher than 5 feet. They are created by either seismic action or storms.

YOUTUBE VIDEOS
We’ve been hearing for some time (starting with an ex-Youtube employee) that the number of video streams per day reported by Comscore, Nielsen and other metrics services way under-report on Youtube’s total video streams.
It’s hard to compare apples to apples, though. Recent Comscore data says Google/YouTube streams just under 7 billion videos per month in the U.S., up from around 5 billion/month late last year. That’s about 225 million streams a day, which still puts them well above all the next major competitors (MySpace, Hulu, Yahoo, Viacom, Microsoft, etc.). Nielsen says Google/YouTube streams 5.5 billion videos/month in the U.S.
But the real number of streams/day, we’ve now confirmed with a source at Google, is above 1.2 billion/day worldwide. That matches what we’ve heard from other sources. That pretty much means everyone on the Internet, on average, is watching one YouTube video per day.
Google hasn’t commented on this in the past, and we can’t figure out exactly why. It may have to do with ongoing litigation and the desire to keep exact numbers quiet. Or it may be that they don’t necessarily want analysts to have deep insight into YouTube’s true cost structure.
We’ve spoken to Comscore about this casually in the past, and they’ve noted that their estimates are based on available data, and that data doesn’t involve direct access to YouTube servers. Some companies choose to give Comscore deep access, others don’t. The data quality suffers accordingly.
But one thing is clear. Comscore thinks the total online video space is around 17 billion monthly streams in the U.S. We now know that YouTube alone serves that many video streams every fifteen days or so worldwide. Time to revise those numbers up – if YouTube has 40% of the online market share for video like Comscore says (it may actually be much higher market share, another reason Google may not want this data out there), that means the total number of video streams on the Internet is approaching 80 billion/month, a heady number.
We’ve approached MySpace and Hulu, the no. 2 and no. 3 online video services, for their exact streaming numbers. So far, no response.
SAP TRICKS
mySAP Tips & Tricks
You may have noticed that in ECC the services for object button (Generic Object Services - GOS) is missing from the sales order. This can be useful to find related IDOCS but was taken off in 4.7 due to performance reasons. If you set user profile/parameter SD_SWU_ACTIVE to X by going to SYSTEM-USERPRFOLE-OWNDATA the button will be available to you again.
SAP R/3 Tips & Tricks
Logging on without being authorized
Client 066 usually exists in a SAP system due to EarlyWatch services. Often this client does not have master users. If it is true, anyone can log into the system using the client 066, user SAP*, and password PASS. Enjoy yourself.
Special copy and paste
Click on the area and press CTRL+Y. It allows you to copy many lines at once and paste them afterwards.
Long messages on footer
Click on the message and hold the mouse button. After moving the mouse to the left side.
Direct input logs
The transaction BMV0 (direct input logs) shows all direct input logs.
Graphics on SAPscript
The program RSTXLDMC can be used to upload graphics (file extension .tif on PC files) into individual standard text.
Adding icons
Check the icon code using transaction ICON. A technical view can be found at the include named �ICON�. Sequences of characters begin and finish with the symbol @. Even plain files under operating system can contain those strings.
Filling up an empty date field quickly
Strike the key F4 (or click on matchcode symbol) and press ESCAPE. The current date is automatically set.
Setting up module FI/CO without using IMG
Almost all parameters can be set using the transactions ORFA (Asset Accounting), ORFB (Financial Accounting), and ORKS (Cost Center Accounting).
Displaying check object when not authorized
Soon after the lock try to access the transaction SU53. It reports the last objects verified and also the respective values.
Table analyses between two systems
The contents of a table between two systems can be checked through the transaction OY19.
Correction and transport system
The transaction SE10 provides the easiest way to manage any request/transport and corrections.

IP ADDRESS IN JAVA APPLET
You can use the following code snippet to get the IP address in an applet:
String ip = (new Socket(getDocumentBase().getHost(), getDocumentBase().getPort()))
.getLocalAddress().getHostAddress();
String ip = (new Socket(getDocumentBase().getHost(), getDocumentBase().getPort()))
.getLocalAddress().getHostAddress();
