In the first part of this post I showed how to use a tip from Dunacn Epping to fake VMware into thinking that a HHDD (Hybrid Hard Disk Drive) was a SSD.
Now let's look at using a tip from Dave Warburton to make an internal SATA HDD into an RDM for one of my Windows based VMs.
My challenge was that I have a VM with a guest that I wanted to have a Raw Device Mapping (RDM) internal SATA HDD accessible to it, expect the device was an internal SATA device. Given that using the standard tools and reading some of the material available, it would have been easy to give up and quit since the SATA device was not attached to an FC or iSCSI SAN (such as my Iomega IX4 I bought from Amazon.com).

Thanks to Dave's great post that I found, I was able to create a RDM of an internal SATA drive, present it to the existing VM running Windows 7 ultimate and it is now happy, as am I.
Pay close attention to make sure that you get the correct device name for the steps in Dave's post (link is here).
For the device that I wanted to use, the device name was:
From the ESX command line I found the device I wanted to use which is:
Then I used the following ESX shell command per Dave's tip to create an RDM of an internal SATA HDD:
Then the next steps were to update an existing VM using vSphere client to use the newly created RDM.
Hint, Pay very close attention to your device naming, along with what you name the RDM and where you find it. Also, recommend trying or practicing on a spare or scratch device first, if something is messed up. I practiced on a HDD used for moving files around and after doing the steps in Dave's post, added the RDM to an existing VM, started the VM and accessed the HDD to verify all was fine (it was). After shutting down the VM, I removed the RDM from it as well as from ESX, and then created the real RDM.
As per Dave's tip, vSphere Client did not recognize the RDM per say, however telling it to look at existing virtual disks, select browse the data stores, and low and behold, the RDM I was looking for was there. The following shows an example of using vSphere to add the new RDM to one of my existing VMs.
In case you are wondering, why I want to make a non SAN HDD as a RDM vs. doing something else? Simple, the HDD in question is a 1.5TB HDD that has backups on that I want to use as is. The HDD is also bit locker protected and I want the flexibility to remove the device if I have to being accessible via a non-VM based Windows system.

Could I have had accomplished the same thing using a USB attached device accessible to the VM?
Yes, and in fact that is how I do periodic updates to removable media (HDD using Seagate Goflex drives) where I am not as concerned about performance.
While I back up off-site to Rackspace and AWS clouds, I also have a local disk based backup, along with creating periodic full Gold or master off-site copies. The off-site copies are made to removable Seagate Goflex SATA drives using a USB to SATA Goflex cable. I also have the Goflex eSATA to SATA cable that comes in handy to quickly attach a SATA device to anything with an eSATA port including my Lenovo X1.
As a precaution, I used a different HDD that contained data I was not concerned about if something went wrong to test to the process before doing it with the drive containing backup data. Also as a precaution, the data on the backup drive is also backed up to removable media and to my cloud provider.
Thanks again to both Dave and Duncan for their great tips; I hope that you find these and other material on their sites as useful as I do.
Meanwhile, time to get some other things done, as well as continue looking for and finding good work a rounds and tricks to use in my various projects, drop me a note if you see something interesting.
Ok, nuff said for now.

Docker offers a new, lightweight approach to application portability. Applications are shipped using a common container format and managed with a high-level API. Their processes run within isolated namespaces that abstract the operating environment independently of the distribution, versions, network setup, and other details of this environment. This "containerization" has often been nicknamed "the new virtualization." But containers are more than lightweight virtual machines. Beyond their small...

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade.

The move in recent years to cloud computing services and architectures has added significant pace to the application development and deployment environment. When enterprise IT can spin up large computing instances in just minutes, developers can also design and deploy in small time frames that were unimaginable a few years ago. The consequent move toward lean, agile, and fast development leads to the need for the development and operations sides to work very closely together. Thus, DevOps become...

Topaz, Utah internment camp site designated landmark
The Interior Department announced Wednesday that the Topaz Camp, near Delta about 140 miles southwest of Salt Lake City, will be recognized as a National Historic Landmark...
The camp, now mainly a windswept field, was used during the war to jail Japanese-Americans and recent immigrants as racial fears increased; nine other camps also held those of Japanese descent during the war and five of those have earned a similar historic designation...
Topaz [internees], mostly legal citizens at the time, spent three or so years living in 20-foot by 20-foot barracks with thin walls; they slept on Army cots.
Residents of nearby Delta have campaigned for some 15 years to raise funds to preserve and partially restore the site, buying up some 624 acres. The Topaz Museum Board currently is attempting to buy the last 16 acres that are privately owned.

Video- A Massive Hit From Sacha Treille Results In A 5 Game Suspension At The World Championships
by Paul on 05/07/12 at 12:59 PM ET
Comments (2)
via the CP at CBC,
French forward Sacha Treille has been suspended five games at the IHHF World Hockey Championship for a vicious head shot on Roman Starchenko of Kazakhstan.
The six-foot-five French forward — who will likely miss the rest of the tournament — caught his smaller opponent with an elbow to the head in the neutral zone midway through a game between the countries on Sunday.
Starchenko was knocked out cold and a stretcher was brought on the ice, although the Kazak was helped off by teammates.
Treille earned a game misconduct and was given a match penalty, which came with an automatic one-game suspension.

Blog . Graphic Design on the iPad
10/06/11 | Posted by Niki Smith | Posted in Digital Creativity
A class at the Art Center's Graphic Design Department recently focused on developing and designing editorial intended for iPad apps. Students created their own magazines and newspapers. They had to create a minimum of three articles, a table of contents, a cover and two covers for future issues. And there had to be interactivity and motion in each story. - Stop the Presses: Students Dive Head First into Editorial for the iPad The students also downloaded and analyzed the various magazine apps already in existence, such as the New York Times, Elle, and The Daily. They considered both the visual appeal, and well how the navigation worked. When creating their own apps, students made sure to consider the interaction of the viewer with the app, and the real-time information that an app can offer and print cannot. A representative from Apple came in to speak to the students twice. The first time he gave a lecture about the basic ideas behind the iPad and what kind of applications we can use as designers. The second time he visited, he showed us how the iPad functions and offered us some technical advice for our projects. Be sure to read the whole interview.

Kansas City, MO (Sports Network) - Alcides Escobar worked a bases-loaded walk to plate the go-ahead run in the bottom of the eighth inning in the Kansas City Royals' 2-1 win over the Texas Rangers in the opener of a three-game set.
Back-to-back two-out singles put runners on the corners against Jason Frasor (4-3), who walked pinch-hitter David Lough to load the bases in the eighth. Neftali Feliz came into the game and issued a four-pitch free pass to Escobar to bring home Lorenzo Cain and make it 2-1.
Greg Holland fired two strikeouts in a perfect ninth to notch his 44th save of the season.
"These games, they're all going to be like this," said Royals manager Ned Yost. "They're all going to be nail biters, they're all going to be close and defense is going to be the difference."
Cain and Eric Hosmer tallied a pair of hits apiece for the Royals, who have won six of their last nine games. Kansas City starter Ervin Santana surrendered a run on five hits and a walk over 7 1/3 innings in the no- decision.
Luke Hochevar (5-2) picked up the final two outs in the eight to tally the win.
The Royals moved 2 1/2 games behind the Cleveland Indians for the second American League wild-card spot.
A.J. Pierzynski cracked an RBI double for Texas, which has dropped nine of its last 11 tilts. With the loss, the Rangers no longer hold one of the two coveted wild-card slots in the AL.
"I'm not worried about Cleveland moving ahead of us," Rangers manager Ron Washington said. "I'm worried about winning a ballgame every night from here on out. We didn't win tonight so we have to come back tomorrow."
Pierzynski's double in the second opened the scoring before Justin Maxwell's two-out RBI double in the home half knotted the contest.
Kansas City moved to 69-2 when leading after eight innings ... It was just the
18th walk Escobar has worked in 581 trips to the plate this year ... Kansas
City was 1-for-7 with runners in scoring position.
Kasey Kahne will continue to drive for Hendrick Motorsports through the 2018 Sprint Cup season, signing a three-year contract extension on Thursday.
The Cleveland Browns activated wide receiver Josh Gordon on Saturday, a day before he is set to make his season debut against Atlanta.
The Chicago White Sox have reportedly agreed to a two-year contract with first baseman Adam LaRoche on Friday.
The Orlando Magic revealed on Friday that rookie forward Aaron Gordon underwent successful surgery on a broken toe.
Edmonton Oilers forward Benoit Pouliot is out indefinitely after suffering a broken foot in Friday's game against the New Jersey Devils, the team announced during the second intermission.

Shelves: modern-american-fiction
Poor, dispiriting follow up to City of Night. Morally hollow with no real narrative to hang on to.
As an impressionable junior-high student when this book was released, I had an after-school job at the town library, shelving books. It meant that I held the very newest books before a single person checked them out. To prevent challenges by local residents if a book might be "racy," the librarians glued a favorable review inside the cover to preclude all confrontations. "Numbers" was one such title. All I had to do was look at the cover and spy that review pasted inside to know that I must be t ...more
John Rechy is a wonderful but sadly unappreciated writer and this is one of his best books. It tells the story of Johnny Rio (a barely fictionalised version of the author) who returns to Los Angeles for ten days in which he will hunt for a fixed number of sexual partners. And this is where we come to the major reason for Rechy's lack of wider public appreciation: his novels contain a great deal of explicit description of male-to-male sexual acts. Even in the 21st Century, some people may find th ...more
Numbers (and City of the Night) were my bibles of gay life when I was a burgeoning teenaged gay boy of the late 70's and 80's. His work both enriched me and instructed me on a part of gay life that I knew nothing about. But more importantly, Rechy gave me the gift that being gay didn't mean that I was emasculated. I was transformed by this knowledge.
When I need a literary reset - it is his prose and his hand and his mind that I turn to. He has never failed me yet.

Sep 29, 2011 Gene rated it 4 of 5 stars · review of another edition
Dated, rather repetitive, and with a character who comes off as more emotionally stunted, psychologically backward, and depressing rather than engaging, Numbers nevertheless has some lovely descriptions, and certainly serves as a fascinating historical record of the pre-AIDS era. The sex is more perfunctory than titillating (as supported by the plot and characterization), but there's a lot of it, and its honesty and directness still feels fresh. My favorite part of the book was the naturalistic ...more

My edition of "Numbers" has John Rechy decked out in his hustler finest, resplendent in work denim shirt sleeves rolled up the arm to show off his saucy guns. Really wild.
"Numbers" is a wild story about a hustler who returns back to his old haunts in Hollywood after a sabbatical in Texas. Once he comes back he returns to his old habits, realizing he wasn't really in it for the money, but is in reality a rampaging sex addict. The book starts out as a serious meditation on loneliness but descends ...more

Maybe it was a good book for its time, but damn, such pointless drizzle. The style grated across my eyes, there was no plot to speak of, the character was not very fleshed out at all and not very likeable either and the worst thing was that in the end the whole story had been in vain. It reminded me somewhat of The Sun Also Rises by Hemingway, what I remember of it anyway, and that's NOT a compliment.
Waste of time.
Waste of time.

Recommends it for: goodlooking youngmen
This book is serious literature and porn - incredibly dark existentialist tale set in L.A. Is Rechy the best writer of Los Angeles ever? Good question. I don't like to deal in absolutes personally, but you could say, yes, and I might hum and nod quietly in agreement. I teach this book in a class on addiction. One mystery - is there a cameo appearance by Isherwood 3/4 of the way through - I've always thought so.
Dec 02, 2007 Richard rated it 3 of 5 stars · review of another edition
A classic LGBT book from the sixties, it is a quick read that illustrates sexual compulsion with engaging and funny prose that posseses very dark undertones. One of John Rechy's better books.

It's quite short.
The submission itself isn't bad in anyway at all, it's just how short the submission is, which hurts it. The submission was greatly detailed and done well overall, but you just can't get passed the shortness of it. Maybe some sort of subtitles would also add that extra bit of emphasis to it. Otherwise good stuff.
yeah, this wasn't supposed to be spectacular or anything, just something i threw together for clock day. given the amount of time i had, the overall quality would've suffered had i tried making it any longer.
A little too short

happy clock day though

Sherman's big night leads Seattle past 49ers again
SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) At midfield, Richard Sherman cradled a game ball in his right hand and took a chomp out of a turkey leg with his left.
Seattle's do-everything, unguarded cornerback certainly earned his postgame feast after a two-interception night that kept the defending Super Bowl champion Seahawks right in the NFC West race with a 19-3 win against the San Francisco 49ers on Thursday.
Just like 10 months earlier with that game-sealing deflection in the end zone during the NFC championship game, Sherman was in the middle of all the big plays. With Michael Crabtree the target again, too.

The Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) has awarded Fugro a contract that will see the deployment of its specialist vessel, equipment and expertise in the underwater search for the missing Malaysia Airlines flight 370 (MH370).
Using its advanced survey vessel, the Fugro Equator, fitted with state-of-the art multibeam echosounder equipment, Fugro will conduct a bathymetric survey of the search area. The seabed data obtained will assist in the production of maps of the seabed offshore Western Australia. This area is relatively uncharted and the maps will assist in planning subsequent stages of the MH370 search.
Fugro and ATSB expect the Fugro Equator to begin its operation by mid-June.

Medtronic invests in Chinese med-tech firm LifeTech Scientific
Send this to a friend
Medtronic Inc. is spending $66.2 million to take a 26 percent share of a Chinese medical-device maker — the second big China deal Medtronic has made in the last month.
Fridley-based Medtronic (NYSE: MDT) said in a news release it was investing in LifeTech Scientific Corp., which makes cardiovascular devices.
Medtronic is spending $46.6 million to buy a 19 percent equity stake in the Chinese company, and then adding a $19.6 million convertible note for another 7 percent ownership. The deal is expected to close by the end of the year.
At the end of last month, Medtronic said it was spending $816 million to buy China Kanghui Holdings Inc., a maker of orthopedic implants.
"China is key to our global strategy as we continue to expand our geographic footprint and strive to meet the needs of local cardiovascular patients," Mike Coyle, executive vice president and president of the Cardiac and Vascular Group at Medtronic, said in a statement Monday.

After cotton, genetically modified mustard to hit Indian market
By Payal Ganguly - HYDERABAD:
Published: 03rd October 2012 10:33 AM
Last Updated: 03rd October 2012 10:33 AM
After Bt-Cotton, it is the turn of Genetically Modified (GM) Mustard to enter the Indian market - a project of Indian research scholars from public-funded institutes including the Delhi University and the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR).
"There is no private company involved in the development of this crop and each stage of development of the crop is being documented and videographed to allay public fears over the consumption of the GM foods," said Dr.
Swapan Kumar Datta, deputy director general (Crop Science), ICAR, at the ongoing biosafety meet at the HICC here Tuesday.
In a meeting on development of the GM foods and regulations in order to ensure biosafety, scientists and government representatives discussed the need to translate transgenic products as commercial products, accessible to farmers.
"Though genetic engineering is a technique of last resort to develop crops with additional attributes such as pest and drought resistance," said Dr.
Kiran K.
Sharma, principal scientist of International Crop research Institute for Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) Hyderabad.
Calling Bt-Cotton a success story in India, former chairman of the Agricultural Scientists Recruitment Board (ASRB) of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) and former co-chairman of the Genetic Engineering Approval Committee (GEAC) C.
D Mayee said, "There have been no negative effects of cultivation of Bt- Cotton in a decade and there are unlikely to be any.
I have observed only positive effects of Bt-Cotton which gives farmers an opportunity to grow a second crop without the possibility of any bollworm infestations.
It is due to Bt-Cotton that we have become exporters of cotton in contrast to two decades ago, when we had to import around 3 million bales of cotton.
