Anyone know any existing library in the market? or open source project? The library should be able to convert picture or any images to cartoon-like image.
Please suggest me if you have use anything like that before.
Depends on what you mean by cartoon-like. Sometimes, applying some filters and doing some other minor operations might give you a decent result. If that is what you are after, you could use something like JavaCV (which is a wrapper for OpenCV.
This library should provide you with access to some graphical tools which should allow you to manipulate the image to obtain what you are after.
If on the other hand you are after a caricature type of cartoon, I think that you would need to use some AI techniques since caricatures usually involve the exaggeration of some physical feature, and for that, you would need AI to extract the said feature.
Finally, you can take a look at this previous SO thread which contains some other pointers on how you can convert an image to a cartoon.

I need to make a program similar to a Lego designer (only for DNA parts instead of Lego). There are so many different options to choose from and I'm not sure whats the best one for my needs.
JOGL, lwjgl, JMonkeyEngine and I'm sure there are others.
Can you please recommend the most suitable one for my needs?
This is how the program should pretty much look at the end. And a picture here:
I only know a bit of JOGL programming but before i'm getting into it I wanna be sure its the right thing for me.
I'd suggest jMonkeyEngine for this. It uses LWJGL under the hood but provides some higher level constructs that will make your life much easier - in particular it implements a scene graph that you can use to build your world / models.
LWJGL could also be a good choice, but it's more low-level (effectively a thin wrapper over OpenGL). So you would need to implement most of the 3D engine parts yourself.

Our current system is based on a Spring/Hibernate/Java/MySQL stack. We have a relationship with a company for which we will end up doing a portion of the IT work. They are currently building a system using an outside vendor which is based on PHP/MySQL. I would like to make an argument that they should reconsider and switch to a Java-centric platform. My main argument is that we can utilize our current (Java-based) skillset for system maintenance and enhancements, instead of having a system which requires knowledge of both PHP and Java. However, they have asked if there is any technical reason why this couldn't happen.
It would be great if I could bring some technical arguments to table which show the two platforms are incompatible. However, I've googled the differences, and as far as I can tell, there wouldn't be any particular technical issues. For example, we could use web services for the systems to communicate.
So, the question is, is there anything one could say about PHP which makes it either incompatible with or just not as "good" as Java? E.g security, scalability and other enterprise considerations? I know it's a vague question, but it would be very helpful to get some input.

Subjective Logic is fundamental as part of my next project, and I was just wondering if there are any implementations already out there. I've read some things (not a lot) about the operators but I'm still unsure as to how it is implemented.
Preferably I would like a C/Java/Go/Python implementation
I dont see any example codes for subjective logic after a google search. This concept is more into AI and logic based languages like Prolog will have to be employed. Also if you have a rule evaluation engine (like CLIPS rule-engine as mentioned here), then good to go.
There are couple of algorithms proposed which leverage subjective logic and can be coded in java or C right away.
The demo page contains a Java applet which can be used to visualise networks of trust using subjective logic. While no source can be obtained for the applet up front, the applet JAR file can be decompiled using a program such as JD (java decompiler) and from there reverse engineered.
The code somewhat provides a library and is the only example of subjective logic in code I've seen.

I want to make a tool for creating FSM control circuit simulations. NB! not the ALU part.
Can anyone recommend a good Java API with as much functionality already available as possible? Itll basically be something like a graphical modelling language editor.
The user should be able to make and run stuff like this:
There are a number of Java libraries out there for visualizing graphs. Some that I hear mentioned a lot include:
JUNG
jGraph
GraphVis and Grappa
The following blog has a pretty extensive list of options with commentary and screenshots: http://s6ai.livejournal.com/33969.html

I'm searching a small Java based RSS/Feed Generator, something like the FeedCreator.class.php library, any suggestions?, thanks!
There's the Rome framework as well
http://rometools.github.io/rome/
Does RSS and Atom
How about jRSS? It looks promising -- supports generating RSS 2 and is relatively small.
I used an API a few years back called ROME. I thought it was a breeze to set up and get going with.
i used Informa with success. especially useful if you plan to support multiple verison of rss (0.9-2.0) reasonable sized library , well documented.
a quite complete list con be found at http://java-source.net/open-source/rss-rdf-tools
