		<description>Now, now, let&#039;s all play NICE, my little friends !  Your Uncle Howard is all about happiness and defying The Man, as you know ... but his name is a valuable piece of intellectual property and a registered trademark.  We should not throw it around without proper .. .compensation, n&#039;est ce pas ?

Hani IS 17 years old.  After serving two years as a Jordanian fighter pilot, he fond that his hair was beginning to fall out, and he switched to a gig where deliberately baldness was cool every five years or so.  You see, Jordan doesn&#039;t want bald fighter pilots, as they prefer &#039;the young look&#039; for their ruthless military machine.  (And who doesn&#039;t ?)

(I think that&#039;s right - isn&#039;t it ?  Anyone please feel free to correct me on any of these details.)

I think we should all be able to sympathize with Hani and understand the effect of this experience.  Someday we, too, may be balding teenagers (or, for you ladies out there, someday we, too, may be rejected Jordanian fighter pilots).  It&#039;s a burden he&#039;s carried with the same kind of dignity that I, Howard Stern, have always shown in my own struggle for freedom of expression.  If he occasionally shows a preoccupation with flatulence ... well, which of us has not ?  Is an abiding interest in fecal matters and genitalia tuggging to be condemned out of hand, without understanding the man and his world ?

I say &#039;Never&#039; !</description>

		<description>Hmm, bile isn&#039;t strong enough or descriptive enough for these blog entries. I&#039;m sure glad I don&#039;t actually know anyone like you, but you&#039;re proof that humunculi actually exist. Are you trying to be Howard Stern? I gather you&#039;re about 17 years old?</description>

		<description>You know what bothers me ?  What bothers me is when I open Windows Explorer and it always opens up the &#039;My Documents&#039; folder.  Also, I never use that BS folder, but Windows tries to put things in there all the time.   

I don&#039;t like it.</description>

		<description>Agreed , that servlet annotations are poinless.
But what is wrong in their new mapping scheme?</description>

		<description>I must say I&#039;m confused about the lack of login solution.  I thought the fashion was to hand over login handling to the servlet container (j_security_check, etc.) which will pass the user onto the requested page.  Where is the problem here?

I sort of see the point about the user registering and you not being able to inform the servlet environment programmatically but isn&#039;t this &#039;correct&#039; behaviour?  After all, wouldn&#039;t you want to verify registrations to avoid abuse?

As much as I love your blog, Hani, Jason has a point.  We can justifiably use the traditional open sores response to complaint: &quot;Seeing as you know so much, join in and do something about it.&quot;  You are ideally placed to give Jason Hunter et al a playful kick in the hurty bits.</description>

		<description>Just read Hunter&#039;s JavaWorld article on Servlet 2.5 and I have to say I&#039;m very dissapointed.  To explain annotations he has to use an example of the @WebService annotation...  in an article about servlets...  which mandates using J2E5.0 for it&#039;s annotation support...  WTF??  Why are there no meaningful servlet annotations????????

I especially appreciated the fact that he acknowledges there is _still no solution_ to the page after login (if one goes directly to the login page) and programatically logging in a user.  As someone working in the real world its helpful to know these are real problems with no speced out solutions.  Thanks from the bottom of my heart, people! NOT!</description>

		<description>&quot;take their power from existance of MS&quot;. That could explain a lot of Sun, it seems to be their standard answer. &quot;well ms did it that way&quot;. 

and why are you supprised by JCP? I&#039;d allow a &quot;disapointed but not supprised&quot;. 

Like portlets are not a part of JEEv5. No new layouts are a part of JSEv6, they plan to delay the ready GroupLayout(netbeans) till JSE7. 
Don&#039;t you have power to veto now, use it for us.

		<description>getServletContextName().  I didn&#039;t know you could get the name of a web application ... damn.  

DOUBLE damn.  

If I had known that, I could have saved my IT consulting job and my six-figure income instead of finding a new job for myself frying these patties of &#039;meat by-product&#039; (shudder) in lard and salt.

Sure, they&#039;re tasty.   But it&#039;s not the same.</description>

		<description>duh, it&#039;s a good thing the servlet API has this though:

&quot;getServletContextName

public String getServletContextName()

    Returns the name of this web application correponding to this ServletContext as specified in the deployment descriptor for this web application by the display-name element.

    Returns:
        The name of the web application or null if no name has been declared in the deployment descriptor.
    Since:
        Servlet 2.3

&quot;

the name of my web application as declared in the deployment descriptor (even if it doesn&#039;t match the context path) is EXTREMELY USEFUL!

You wascals, you....</description>
