       Body:
seems like you're confusing finally (as in try/catch/finally) and finalize.
You should review this one, it's a job-interview classic ;)

Description:

sets InitialContext in finalizer clause for garbage collection

"Finalizers are expensive and interfere with optimal GC.
Finalizers are unreliable as indicators of object death.
It is good programming practice to be sparing in your use of finalizers (cfr 
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-jtctips/j-jtc0319a.html + java 
lang spec)"
