Java Comparators
BeanComparator
Collections.sort(catalogs, new BeanComparator("publishCatalogName"));
Note: you should check if the performance hit is worth it, since it uses reflection, you might be taking a hit.
ComparatorChain
comparaterChain.addComparator( new ReverseComparator
(new BeanComparator("age") );
Allows you to chain existing comparators together.
Similar comparators from apache

Corporate Aerial Drones
In this LA Times article, it is like the corporate aerial drones in Tony Ballantyne's recursion model are going to be a reality sooner rather than later.
If politicians were readers of science fiction, they'd be ahead of the curve, instead of propped up with information from corporate lobbyists. The problem is there are no lobbyists for futurists who can see ahead of the curve with a memory for what is evil for society and strive to prevent those situations from becoming reality.

SOPA/PIPA
SOPA could tragically disrupt the internet by bogging down a free-flowing system of e-commerce with crippled or removed sites littering the landscape of consumer purchases. At a time when the economy is at a low, it is unreasonable to be injecting bills into the US which only damage online commerce, education, and the free flow of ideas online. There are already enough laws giving police powers, it is time to roll back some of those in the interest of preserving an enlightened democracy. There are two futures that bridge from this decision : one run by corporations in a fascist like state or one where people have liberty and freedom. Don't let a few troublemakers ruin the internet for the rest of us. I encourage you to block SOPA and PIPA, and get back to work on endeavors that create jobs, promote American ingenuity, and benefit the welfare of the people.
