For The VeeDub Fans..
This bit of news will no doubt be a big badge of honor for the few owners there are out there of the Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI. VW is hoping the number of Touareg TDI owners will grow, and demonstrated the diesel ute's mighty pulling power recently in a press event that pitted it against the standing weight of a Boeing 747. The Touareg was "lightly modified" with the addition of 7,030 kg (15,498 lbs.) of ballast weight (!) and the fitment of the 4.56 axle from Touareg V8 model. The latter mod turned out to be unnecessary since the driver, Uew Krieghoff, performed the stunt in the low ratio, second gear. Other than that, the Touareg was also fitted with a special tow adapter to marry the two vehicles together and wore outer body panels that made it look the same as the next gen Touareg being launched early next year. The engine, transmission, suspension, tires and brakes were all stock. The plane used for the stunt was a decommissioned Boeing 747-200 that weighs 155 tons. VW had initially calculated the Touareg could successfully pull 200 tons, and had even done a dry run with a 190-ton Boeing 747-400. Unfortunately, the only plane that could be acquired for the PR stunt was this one that is usually used as a giant prop in films. Apparently it didn't put up much of a fight, as the Touareg towed the jet 150 meters at 5 mph before slowing itself and the plane to a stop with its stock brakes. Impressive indeed, and we think the Touareg V10 TDI has laid down the gauntlet for our domestic heavy haulers. Let's see what crazy objects the Ford Super-Duty, Chevy Silverado HD and Dodge Ram 3500 can tug around.

New Glowing Mushrooms
Like a black light poster come to life, a group of bioluminescent fungi collected from Ribeira Valley Tourist State Park near São Paulo, Brazil, emanates a soft green glow when the lights go out. The mushrooms are part of the genus Mycena, a group that includes about 500 species worldwide. Of these only 33 are known to be bioluminescent—capable of producing light through a chemical reaction. A Whole new meaning to MAGIC MUSHROOMS - "SHROOMS"

Automatic Creation of Storage Location in SAP MM Materials Management
All goods receipt in SAP are recorded to a virtual storage location. Such virtual storage locations in SAP represent warehouses or stocking locations. In SAP, it is possible to create storage locations automatically upon a receipt of good. Automatic creation of storage location needs to be configured in SAP by defining the plant and the type of good movement. Normally, from a security and controls perspective in SAP, the automatic creation of storage is enabled at the time of SAP implementation. This makes storage location maintenance much easier since SAP automatically creates a storage location.
The configuration for creation of storage location can be done by using the transaction code OMB3. Alternatively, SAP users can alos use the menu path mentioned below.
IMG >> Materials Management >> Inventory Management and Physical Inventory >> Goods Receipt >> Create Storage Location Automatically
Once SAP MM has been fully implemented, the configuration for automatic creation of storage location should be disabled. This will ensure that SAP automatically does not create a storage location other than the normal business storage locations in use. However, many companies choose to keep this configuraton enabled to ease the creation of storage locations.
