Rainmeter 2.1.871 Beta

Rainmeter is a customizable performance meter, which can display the CPU load, memory utilization, disk space, network traffic, time and many more things.

Through Rainmeter, you can enhance your Windows computer at home or work with skins: handy, compact applets which float freely on your desktop, much like Windows Sidebar gagdgets, or dashboard widgets for the Mac.

Rainmeter skins provide you with useful information at a glance. It’s easy to keep an eye on your system resources, like memory and battery power, or your online data streams, including email, RSS feeds, and weather forecasts. Many skins are even functional: they can record your notes and to-do lists, launch your favorite applications, and send your tweets to Twitter – all in a clean, unobtrusive interface that you can rearrange and customize to your liking.

Handy Start Menu 1.28

How long does it take you to find an application in the long Start menu list? The Handy Start Menu utility will reduce that time as it will automatically group applications in the menu by categories depending on their purpose.

The utility makes the menu so convenient that you will no longer have to create piles of shortcuts on the desktop, create complex panels in the Quick Launch bar and spend time browsing through the long list, trying to find an application that you have not placed on the desktop or Quick Launch bar.

Also, it will be easier to access items in the menu. You will only have to click the folder with the name of a program, and our utility will run that application automatically.

Spies secures front row in Aragón

Spies improved consistently over the weekend, coinciding with an increase in grip level on the Spanish circuit. A small crash in the extended final practice this morning resulted in no injuries, the Texan finishing in sixth place 1.104 seconds from first. A set up change mid-qualifying brought another step, enabling him to deliver third place and close the gap to pole to 0.704 seconds.

Reigning World Champion Jorge Lorenzo left his fastest times to later in the session, battling a lack of rear grip to deliver fourth place for tomorrow’s race, 0.819 seconds from Championship rival Casey Stoner on pole. The Mallorcan rider was less then happy with the final result and will continue to work overnight with his crew to make another step for morning warm up.

Ben Spies:
“The whole weekend has been pretty good for me, I’m pretty happy with it. We struggled a little bit this morning but the bike’s working really well. We looked over a bit of data and tried to find the best compromise. We found it with 30 minutes to go in qualifying and with the race tyres we were about third or fourth quickest. When we put the softer tyres on we were able to go quicker and get on the front row. The crew has done an amazing job to get the bike where it is, we’re just lacking a bit of speed from the front two guys. We’re going to try and challenge for the podium tomorrow.”

Jorge Lorenzo:
“We struggled here last year and we are here struggling again this year, maybe even more. We have many problems with rear grip; we are not getting enough traction to be really fast. Tomorrow I think the maximum we can get is third place on the podium unless something very strange happens so that is the goal we have. The long straight is not the best for us but in the corners we are also a bit slower than the others so we must find something.”

Yamaha Factory Racing press release

Indonesia to rely on Angel at SEA Games

Jakarta - Indonesia will be relying on Angel Magdalena Ticoalu and Ricky to grab gold medals again from billiard event at the coming Southeast Asian Games (SEA Games), a spokesman said.

"The two men`s and women`s national billiard players still continued performing maximally at national or international championships," the secretary general of the All Indonesia Billiard Association (PB POBSI), Soedarjanto, said here on Sunday.

To achieve all the targets PB POBSI has given periodic tests since August 2011 to 20 billiard players consisting of 16 men`s and four women`s players.

Through intensive training in pool, snooker, carom and English billiard PB POBSI is optimistic its athletes could win gold medals in the pool and carom events.

He said it was not impossible for other players besides Angel and Ricky to also be able to win gold medals. What is important however is the national team would be able to maintain the tradition of winning gold medals in the event, he said.

When playing at home, Soedarjanto said, athletes are more challenged to present their best performance and with support from home spectators opponents are usually a bit nervous.

He said national players also often face such non-technical factors when playing at international events. He referred to Ricky Yang as an example whose performance dropped at the 25th SEA Games in Laos in 2009 after winning a world champion title in the Philippines.

Soedarjanto hoped that this would not happen when Ricky and Angie played at the 26th SEA Game multi-events in Jakarta and Palembang in November.

He admitted, however, Thailand and the Philippines would remain the strong opponents in the 26th SEA Games in November.(*) ANT/H-YH/S012
