Do I need to put named queries in ORM.xml file

Question

I recently F-ed up my JPA entites and I am trying desperately to get that functionality back. After adding some default queries to my my entities I can't call them in my session bean... I am getting this exception

There is no query with the name "" defined for any of the known persistent classes:

While the said named query does exist it is simply an annotation to a the persistence class (or entity bean). Do I need to add that to the ORM.xml file? I seem to remember that you could annotations to the ORM.xml file or you could directly annotate the entity bean. am I missing a step here?

thanks.

UPDATE: Actual Named queries:

import javax.persistence.Table;
import javax.persistence.NamedQuery;
import javax.persistence.NamedQueries;

@Entity
@Table(name="EMAIL_DOMAIN_TRUST")
@NamedQueries({
@NamedQuery(name="getEmailDomainTrust", query = "SELECT e FROM EmailDomainTrust e"),
    ...
})

Here is where I call it in my stateless session bean

public List<EmailDomainTrust> getEmailDomains() {       

    List listOfEmailDomains = null;
    //try
    //{
        System.out.println("Testing 1..2...3...!");
        listOfEmailDomains = emf.createNamedQuery("getEmailDomainTrust").getResultList(); 
        System.out.println(listOfEmailDomains.size());
    //}
    //catch(Exception e)
    //{
        //System.out.println("Sugar Cookies!  This thing doesn't work");        
    //}
    // while(it)
   return listOfEmailDomains;    

}

Do not know why it can't seem to find it? I am working in Websphere integration developer btw. Maybe something isn't updating correctly?
