Rice varieties and uses
There are dozens of rice varieties to choose from. Watch this instructional video to learn about rice varieties and uses.
In this month's issue
Rice is a staple grain eaten daily by billions of people.The most common form of rice consumed is white rice that's had its husk removed and milled.
There are dozens of rice varieties to choose from to suit both savoury and sweet dishes. Cooking times and methods with vary for each variety, so refer to packet instructions before cooking.
Jasmine or Thai fragrant rice
The long, fragrant grain is a staple in Thailand. When cooked the versatile rice is moist and tender and is great with Thai-style or Indian curries, stir-fries or in pilaffs.
Basmati is a long, slim grain with a light, dry texture that becomes fluffy when cooked. Basmati works well with both Indian and Thai dishes, particularly well in pilaffs or as an accompaniment to curries.
Brown rice
Considered the healthiest variety of rice, brown rice is a whole grain with just the hull removed. As a result, brown rice takes longer to cook. Brown rice is higher in natural fibre and retains most of its vitamins, which are lost in the refined varieties. Serve as a healthier substitute to white rice.
Japanese Sushi Rice
A slightly sweet and plump short-grained rice used for making sushi or as an accompaniment to Japanese dishes. The glutinous rice needs less water for cooking than other varieties.
Italian Arborio or risotto rice
Perfect for risottos, Arborio rice is a short, chubby, ivory-coloured grain that can absorb large quantities of liquid without breaking up.
Short grain
The short, round grains have a high starch content making them perfect for rice puddings, stuffings and risottos.
Long grain
This absorbent long-grained rice is also sold as 'Texmati', 'Calrose' and 'Patna' rice. Long grain is a good all-purpose rice for savoury dishes.
Glutinous rice, sometimes called sweet rice, is a short-grain rice which becomes sticky when cooked. Sticky rice is used as an accompaniment to northern Thai dishes like BBQ chicken or papaya salads. Sweetened with palm sugar and coconut milk and paired with ripe mango, sticky rice makes a wonderful Thai dessert.
This unique variety of rice is commonly eaten in Thailand as a dessert. The unhulled, unpolished grain is coloured a deep-purplish-black and becomes glutinous when cooked. Perfect for puddings and sweet rice dishes.

New Raspberry Pi Model A launches in Europe for only $25 February 4, 2013 at 2:04 pm
From rapid prototyping by engineers to students tinkering with their first electronics project, the $35 Raspberry Pi Model B has been an unqualified success. The smaller, more efficient, and stripped down Model A is now available for European audiences for $25. The rest of the world will be able to get their hands on it soon enough, but that's not the only thing happening in the world of Raspberry Pi.

Brazil's federal government has established a new scheme to finance secondary airports through airport operator Infraero, drawing from the concession payments from the country's airport deals.
Infraero president Gustavo do Vale announced that all payments from the private concessionaires of airports previously operated by the state-owned operator will go to the newly created National Civil Aviation Fund (FNAC).
"Infraero will administrate [FNAC's] funds to modernize [regional] airports," said do Vale.
According to do Vale, after the conclusion of the second round of privatisations, which will include Belo Horizonte Confins International and Rio de Janeiro Galeao International, Infraero's income from airport operations will be reduced to about half of its former levels.
Concessions of the Brasilia International, Sao Paulo Guarulhos International and Viracopos-Campinas International airports closed in 2012.
While the original Infraero concept was based on cross-subsidising smaller airports from the income obtained from large city airports, the new system will guarantee that the concession income will still be used to improve airport infrastructure across the country. This also means that airport concession fees will not go into the general state coffers but will be reserved for aviation related investments.
In 2012, the Brazilian government announced an ambitious plan to decentralise Brazil's aviation infrastructure and network, which includes the preparation of 270 airports to support commercial aviation. Infraero will receive R$2.2 billion ($ 1.1 billion) to build and modernise those airports in 2014 with funding levels maintained during the following years, according to do Vale.
The economy of Brazil has grown at the high single digit percentages during the past decade, with the exception of 2012. Road, rail, port and airport infrastructure constraints have repeatedly been identified as major constraints to sustained growth, leading the Brazilian government to disembark in huge public investment and private concession projects to build and improve motorways, high speed trains and airports.

Deploying NBU master server on solaris zone
Created: 10 Dec 2012 • Updated: 05 Mar 2013 | 3 comments
This issue has been solved. See solution.
Does deploying NBU on Global zone causes PBX to be available in Non-Global zone (we are facing one issue where customer do not want this behaviour to happen)
Protecting global zone would ensure local zones are also protected (in offline state). Does NBU processes gets installed within local zone as well (i believe it does not... ) correct me if above presumption is wrong

DOCUMENTATION: NetBackup Support for SUN Virtualization
NetBackup Master Server or Media Server (disk backups only) can be installed in a local zone (whole root).
The ICS Installer will not allow installation of any package on a local zone. Therefore, all the packages will have to be installed manually (in order):
Supporting Storage Foundation and VCS on Unix and Windows as well as NetBackup on Unix and Windows
