Venus beats Serena in Wimbledon final (AP)
Venus beats Serena in Wimbledon final (AP): "
Thrilled as she was to win her fifth Wimbledon singles championship, Venus Williams dialed down her celebration. No hopping in place and skipping to the net after match point, the way she's done so often on that Centre Court lawn. No giddy laughter and whoops of joy, as she's let out in the past. This title was different from her previous successes at the grass-court Grand Slam.

ARD Patcher 1.0 - Patches the ARDAgent exploit in 10.4 and 10.5. (Free)
ARD Patcher 1.0 - Patches the ARDAgent exploit in 10.4 and 10.5. (Free): "
ARD Patcher 1.0
ARD Patcher is a free utility that patches the infamous ARDAgent exploit in Mac OS X 10.4 and 10.5.
Due to an exploit in Apple's Remote Desktop Agent, a new 'trojan horse' has surfaced for Mac OS X; and with it, appeals from Anti-Virus software companies claiming you need to buy a product to protect yourself. The truth: this trojan horse, so far, has not been documented in the wild, and in fact, we find it highly suspicious that multiple Anti-Virus companies have been able to get a hold of it.
theiphoneproject is proud to bring you ARD Patcher, a small application that will patch the exploit, free-of-charge, as in reality its a simple patch that Apple will surly fix in an upcoming update. Getting an antivirus program is overkill in this situation, despite what all those companies will tell you.

Federer, Nadal back in Wimbledon final (AP)
Federer, Nadal back in Wimbledon final (AP): "
Add up all of Roger Federer's greatness on grass courts, and the numbers are striking: 40 wins in a row at Wimbledon, 65 overall on the surface. Now he seeks an additional victory, a victory that would make him the first man since the 1880s to win six consecutive Wimbledon titles, a victory that would give him a 13th Grand Slam championship, one shy of Pete Sampras' career record.

Venus, Serena to meet in Wimbledon final (AP): "
A spot in her seventh Wimbledon final already secured, Venus Williams headed back to Centre Court to catch the end of the next match. Scouting? Not really. More like rooting. And when Thursday's second semifinal ended, Williams stood, smiling and applauding for the woman who won, the woman she will have to beat to earn a fifth championship at the All England Club: her younger sister, Serena.
