Brett Myers continued to make the most of his second chance, punishing the Nationals for his first complete-game shutout in four years. He’s 3-1 with a 1.94 ERA since his minor league demotion. Credit the Phillies for making these next-day summaries easy. This one was all Myers, who threw 82 of 119 pitches for strikes, whirling a nasty deuce to the tune of nine strikeouts. This is the best Myers we’ve seen since he was ...

It was seven years ago today when everybody was getting excited about Microsoft's bombastic announcement of Hailstorm, promising that "Hailstorm makes the technology in your life work together on your behalf and under your control." What was it, really? The idea that the future operating system was on the net, on Microsoft's cloud, and you would log onto everything with Windows Passport and all your stuff would be up there. It turns out: nobody needed ...

by Miško HeverySo you decided to finally give this testing thing a try. But somehow you just can't figure out how to write a unit-test for your class. Well there are no tricks to writing tests, there are only tricks to writing testable code. If I gave you testable code you would have no problems writing a test for it. But, somehow you look at your code and you say, "I understand how to write ...

According to ESPN’s Buster Olney, rival executives speculate that Phillies GM Pat Gillick could make a move to add the current and former Seattle left-hander, who also pitched for Philadelphia in 2006. In 18 2-3 innings, Rhodes, 38, is 2-0 with a 2.89 ERA and 21/8 K/BB ratio, holding left-handed hitters to a .194 average. Olney speculates that Rhodes would likely serve as a second left-hander out of the Philles’ bullpen. Beerleaguer: Why can’t GMs ...

Here at Wired.com a few of us were excited about turning our iPhones into wireless modems with the $10 NetShare application -- but none of us could get it to work. Fortunately, we got our connections up and running with some help straight from NetShare's maker, Nullriver. So we've created a step-by-step tutorial in case you're stuck, too. Before we begin, do note that we could not get FireFox 3 to work with NetShare using ...Shared by adam (703) Alex (21) Ankur Shah (0) Arne (0) Avi (440) Beau Giles (5) Brian Brown (0) Brian Enigma (0) bussiere (43) Cai Chen (738) Carl Dunn3 (4) Charles (2) Chet Nichols III (0) Chris (3) Chris Cheatwood (0) Chris Messina (18) Chris Papadopoulos (18) Christopher W.
