Java (and microsoft windows) uses UCS16, while SQL (and unix/linux and
the internet and about everything else) uses UTF8 (but only if its so
configured). with SQL, you have two things, the database encoding, and
the client_encoding, the latter can be changed on the fly, while the
former is setup when the database is initialized and created.
