The Whisky Trail from Aviemore to Cullen in Scotland
A six centre inn-to-inn, self-guided walking tour along the Whisky Trail and Speyside Way from Aviemore to Cullen in Scotland. 7 nights bed and breakfast accommodation, 6 days walking, luggage transfer, walking notes, maps and taxis transfer to Huntley rail station on the final morning.
On this Explore Britain tour, sometimes known as The Whisky Trail and featured in the "Monarch of the Glen", starts at Aviemore below the Cairngorm Mountains, where the Wolf of Badenoch's castle stands amidst the lake. You follow the Speyside Way across the open heather before tracing the sweeps of the River Spey past the haunts of salmon fishermen and the whisky valley of Glenfiddich. You then turn eastwards along the coast to the fishing community of Cullen. Picturesque old `seatouns' like Cullen and Portsoy alternate with beaches where smugglers flourished while Catholics and non-conformists held clandestine services in sea caves. Here on Cullen Beach in 961 three Norse kings died; nearby Macbeth slew Duncan and Mary Queen of Scots pursued the Gordons. This is good time to try the traditional Cullen Skink dish associated with east Scotland coast.

Hi Philip, I just wanted to let you know that we had an excellent walking trip last week through Exmoor. All of your arrangements worked out as promised, we had no significant problems with any details or with the navigation, the walk and the weather were excellent, and we really enjoyed the places you picked for us to stay. We will strongly consider using Explore Britain again in the future. Thanks very much.

If all goes well you should be hearing Elton John's "Candle In The Wind"
Killed in The Pentagon or onboard planes:
2001: 9 US Military women, 40 US Civilian women
2007: 0 US Military women, 1 US Civilian woman
Total a/o 15 Sep 12: 9 US Military women, 42 US Civilian women
51 US women killed on 9/11 or since
On 11 September 2008 the Pentagon Memorial was unveiled. If you were unable to visit it yet please watch the Pentagon Memorial Dedication slide show. One of the photos (I think it's number 20) shows a tattoo on the back of one of the daughters of the retired colonel I knew--the only man listed here on my page.
Many people died on 11 September 2001 when two airplanes were flown into the World Trade Center towers in New York City. I posted the women from the police and fire departments who died that day on my FD-EMS page.
Shortly after the NYC tragedy two other planes took lives. One of those flew into the ground in Pennsylvania. The other airplane was flown into the south side of the Pentagon. Shown here on my page are only the military and civilian women, as well as the one man I knew, working in the Pentagon that day who were killed by this terrorist act. The Defend AMERICA News website has more information about them as well as the men who were killed in the Pentagon and the men and women aboard the plane. That's where I finally found their info and photos. If I have left anyone off this list--please let me know.
More than 5 years after this dreadful day there are many more sites honoring the men and women who died on 9/11. Here are some links to sites where you can go to search for individuals no matter where they died or which airplane they were on:
SEPTEMBER 11, 2001 VICTIMS LIST
9/11 Victims | washingtonpost
Remember: September 11, 2001
Voices of September 11th
If you ever wondered about the actual flight paths the planes took--please check out Flights of September 11, 2001
Also if anyone wants me to add some info about their loved one I'd be more than happy too--as I did for Cheryle Sincock's family.
Not too long ago I came across 9/11 We Know an interesting site that shows other theories as to what happened that tragic day. No matter what your feelings are about this date in history--it won't hurt for you to at least look at this site to see what others think. Likewise you should take the time to watch at least two videos that are available online--Loose Change and Outfoxed. Just Google those titles and watch the clips--they will make you wonder about many things!
WIDOW of pilot, Sandy Dahl
Sandy Dahl, 52, of Denver. CO died accidentally on 25 May 2012 in Lakewood, CO of acute heart failure due to the combined effects of alcohol and multiple prescription drugs according to the Jefferson County chief deputy coroner. It is reported she had a heart condition--right ventricular dysplasia--which was a contributing cause in her death. Also found in her system were anti-depression, anti-anxiety, painkiller and tranquilizer drugs. Her husband Jason was the captain of United Flight 93 which went down in Pennsylvania. Sandy had set up a scholarship fund in her husband's honor for young pilots to be educated. She also spoke publicly about the heroism of those aboard Flight 93 so they weren't forgotten. Sandy was dedicated to completing the Flight 93 National Memorial as a way to honor the actions of her husband, his crew and the passengers. The events of 9/11 were never far from her mind and she often woke up with nightmares. "Normally, people have a memorial, and it's behind them then. This is never going away," she told the newspaper before the 10th anniversary of the attacks.
While I haven't see all the news about deaths following the events of 9/11/01 every once in awhile someone sends me something of interest. Recently Carlyn Kuder let me know that a woman had died so I decided to add her to my list for obvious reasons:
CIVILIAN Marcie Bents, 48
Marcie of Severna Park, MD died on 8 May 2007 from the traumatic injuries she suffered during the 9/11 attack on the Pentagon. She was a graduate of Friendly High School in Prince George's County. Marcie became a computer specialist for the Department of the Army at the Pentagon and was working on 9/11. Marcie told her family that when the plane hit, the fireball came down the hallway. One of her friends saw it and the two of them ran from it. The fire singed the hair, burned all the hair off the back of her head, and as they were working their way out of the pentagon, the lights were out. It was smoke-filled. They were feeling walls. They would touch the walls and found the cold walls to work their way out, stepping over bodies, debris, to get out of the building. As a result of that, she started going down hill, not immediately but within a year or so...little by little, and you could see it. After recovering from her physical injuries she returned to work but was diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder shortly thereafter and fought the trauma until her death. She left the Pentagon in 2004 on Workmen's Compensation Disability. Marcie became a recluse, afraid of leaving her home, afraid of hearing planes over head, afraid of even opening her own oven due to the heat and smell. She had been an outgoing, fun-loving woman who enjoyed gardening and loved her four pet dogs. Marcie is survived by her son Matthew Zimmerman; mother Margaret Bents; brother Steven Bents; sisters Kathy Gonce and Rita Johnson; along with many nieces, nephews and friends.
NOW--here is the one man I personally knew plus all the women who died in The Pentagon on 9/11/2001.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FHWA, together with Multnomah County and the Oregon Department of Transportation (DOT), will prepare an environmental impact statement (EIS) on a proposal to create a seismically resilient Burnside Street crossing of the Willamette River in downtown Portland, Oregon. The purpose of this project is to create a seismically resilient Burnside Street lifeline crossing of the Willamette River that will remain fully operational and accessible for vehicles and other modes of transportation immediately following a major earthquake. The project is intended to address the need to support the region's ability to provide rapid and reliable jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:26 Apr 13, 2020 Jkt 250001 emergency response, rescue and evacuation after a major earthquake; the need for long-term, multi-modal travel access across the river; and to enable post-earthquake economic recovery. The EIS will be prepared in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, as amended (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), 23 U.S.C. 139, Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) regulations implementing NEPA (40 CFR 1500–1508), FHWA regulations implementing NEPA (23 CFR 771.101– 771.139), and applicable Executive Orders and DOT NEPA policies. The EIS will also document compliance with other applicable environmental review laws, regulations, Executive Orders, policies, and guidance. For example, an evaluation under Section 4(f) of the DOT Act of 1966 may also be required due to the potential for impacts to public recreational areas and resources on or eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. The FHWA intends to issue a combined Final EIS/Record of Decision pursuant to 23 CFR 771.124, unless FHWA determines the regulatory criteria or practicability considerations preclude issuance of a combined document. Analyses developed and decisions reached during the transportation planning stage have helped narrow the range of alternatives and focus the NEPA evaluation for the project. These analyses and decisions, captured in the 2015 Willamette River Bridges Capital Improvement Program and the 2018 Earthquake Ready Burnside Bridge Feasibility Study, include the purpose and need, and the identification and screening of alternatives. Multnomah County and the Oregon DOT submitted this planning work to extensive public involvement. This ''informal'' scoping included multiple public and agency meetings, held between August 2018 and October 2019, to invite comment on the statement of purpose and need, the range of alternatives, issues to be studied in the EIS, screening criteria, and evaluation criteria for selecting a preferred alternative. Multnomah County and the Oregon DOT held an online open house between September 3 and October 4, 2019. With the Feasibility Study and the informal scoping process, Multnomah County and the Oregon DOT evaluated over 100 potential alternatives and options, ultimately deciding to carry forward three build alternatives plus a No-build alternative for further analysis in an EIS. In accordance with 23 U.S.C. 168 and 23 U.S.C. 139(f)(4), FHWA intends to adopt the planning analyses, purpose PO 00000 Frm 00144 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 20805 and need, and decisions on the alternatives, and rely on them for the NEPA process. This notice begins the formal scoping period. The FHWA will use this opportunity to determine the scope and the significant issues to be analyzed in depth in the EIS, and identify and eliminate from detailed study the issues which are not significant or which have been covered by prior environmental review. Letters describing the proposed action and soliciting comments have been sent to appropriate Federal, State, and local agencies; Tribes; and private organizations and citizens who have previously expressed or are known to have interest in this proposal. Agencies that were identified as potential Cooperating and Participating agencies are being invited to review and comment on the Agency Coordination Plan. In addition, with this notice, the lead agencies (FHWA, Multnomah County, and the Oregon DOT) invite comments and suggestions from all interested parties to ensure that the full range of issues related to this proposed action are considered and that all significant issues are identified. Comments or questions concerning this proposed action and the EIS should be directed to FHWA at the address provided above. The lead agencies have developed a project website at www.burnsidebridge.org that includes project schedules, the Public Involvement Plan, and information about past and upcoming project meetings.

Tag line: "New!! Sinbad's Boldest And Most Daring Adventure!"
The third and final chapter in the Sinbad Trilogy, Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger was released in 1977, the same summer that another fantasy film known as Star Wars (or Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope) hit the scene. While Star Wars represented a leap forward in movie special effects, Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger relied on stop-motion animation, which had been in use since the days of silent pictures. Fortunately, the man responsible for creating Sinbad's effects was Ray Harryhausen, who, despite specializing in such a time-honored, "archaic" process, always found a way to make it seem fresh.
Sinbad (played this time around by Patrick Wayne) has come to the port city of Charak to pay a visit to his good friend Prince Kassim (Damien Thomas) and his sister, Princess Farah (Jane Seymour), who also happens to be the famous sailor's girlfriend. Arriving several days after the scheduled coronation of Kassim as Caliph, Sinbad assumes the Prince is now the city's new ruler. But thanks to the evil witch Zenobia (Margaret Whiting), step-mother to the Prince and Princess, the coronation was never completed. It is Zenobia's wish that her own son Rafi (Kurt Christian) be made Caliph, so as the crown was about to be put on Kassim's head, she used her magic to turn the Prince into a baboon!
With nowhere else to turn, Princess Farah begs Sinbad to help her brother. To this end, Sinbad gathers up his crew (as well as Kassim and Farah) and sets sail for the Greek island of Casgar, rumored home of the brilliant alchemist Melanthius (Patrick Troughton). Though unable to break Zenobia's spell himself, Melanthius, who lives alone with his daughter Dione (Taryn Power), recommends they brave the icy waters of the North to visit the remains of the once-great city of Hyperborea, where an advanced race known as the Arimaspi resided. It's Melanthius' belief that the town's sacred temple may house the secret to changing Kassim back to his former self. With time slipping away (if Kassim isn't made Caliph by the seventh full moon, Rafi will be crowned instead), the group heads north, sailing as quickly as they possibly can. What they don't realize, however, is Zenobia and Rafi, along with their mechanical servant the Minotaun, are following close behind, and intend to reach the Temple of Hyperborea before our heroes do.
As with many of Harryhausen's previous films (including the first two Sinbad movies, 7th Voyage and Golden Voyage), the best moments in Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger feature his stop-motion magic. We get a few original creations, like the Minotaun (for the close-up scenes, actor Peter Mayhew, AKA Chewbacca in the Star Wars films, dons the Minotaun suit) and the Troglodyte, an ancestor of mankind's that is several stories tall. Yet some of Harryhausen's most impressive work involves not mythical creatures, but real-life ones; the animation he provides for the baboon version of Kassim is among his finest of all-time (there are moments when you believe you're watching a real animal). And while Sinbad and his crew's fight with the giant Walrus isn't particularly exciting, the final battle, in which the Troglodyte squares off against a Sabretooth Tiger, is thrilling as hell.
But along with the animation, I also enjoyed the adventure at the heart of Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger. Sure, the story itself isn't original (there are scenes that could have easily been lifted from earlier fantasy films), but it still managed to hold my undivided attention. In some of Harryhausen's lesser movies, I found myself waiting impatiently for the animated sequences, and didn't care as much about the quest at the heart of it all (Golden Voyage of Sinbad is one example). This was not the case with this Eye of the Tiger. With the ushering in of high-tech computer graphics, its tale of swordplay and ancient magic may seem antiquated to some, but I had a great time watching this movie.
In fact, I'm kinda sad that Harryhausen didn't have a fourth Sinbad film in him.
Why didn't Survivor write the theme song for this movie instead? It would have made more sense than a Rocky movie. Ha ha. Seriously, good review. Now I am intrigued just for the Harryhausen effect.


IRU surveyed 450 transport companies from Europe, Asia and Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries and revealed the results at the IRU World Congress in Muscat Oman on 6-8 November 2018. The Congress also saw the signing of a broad roadmap for the transport industry.
Greater use of technology in transport is seen by many as one of the great opportunities and in particular the adoption of autonomous trucks is predicted by 76 per cent of transport companies to become a viable option on the roads within the next decade. However, implementation of new technologies is hampered by the cost (according to 71 per cent) and also a limited understanding of the range of emerging technologies available (50 per cent).
It is no surprise then that innovation was at the heart of the 'Muscat Compact', which along with the IRU Future of Road Transport survey was the second major announcement of the IRU World Congress.
The Compact was debated at Ministerial level and endorsed at the end of the Congress, and aims to provide a roadmap for the future of road transport, mobility, trade and logistics, while focusing on the four key elements: talent, trade, environment and innovation.
Involved in these discussions were 25 regional and national delegations with the intention of setting out industry responses to such global objectives, notably those set out in the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Subsequent talks examined how governments can work better with transport operators in supporting trade facilitation, building human capital, decarbonising, digitalising and facilitating intermodal efficiency. The Muscat Compact that resulted from this is a principle-based framework for cooperation, aimed at bringing the industry together to take control of its future by using innovation to overcome current challenges and uncertainty.

One of my all-time favorite marketing tactics was executed by Arm & Hammer Baking Soda decades ago. Baking soda sold briskly when women were full-time homemakers and baked a lot. When society evolved,baking fell off and so did Arm & Hammer. Instead of quietly fading away, they marketed their product as an alternative to toothpaste.
Then they suggested you buy a box for your fridge and another for the freezer to keep them smelling fresh. But they claimed that would only work for 30 days, so they recommended that you pour it down the sink and buy another two boxes. Same product, marketed for multiple uses. Check out www.armandhammer.com to see all of the present day uses for Arm & Hammer Baking Soda. I bet they have a few more up their sleeve.
That's all a prelude to introduce you to a marketing tactic that we've had quite a bit of success with lately -- we'll call it"repackaging" for lack of a better term. Repackaging consumer packaged goods to generate new interest in the products has proven successful for the Proctor and Gambles for decades. Even changing the logo and decor of a restaurant makes consumers think the food tastes better.
We realize that not every business offers packaged goods. But sometimes just taking an existing service, bundling it with other existing services, and renaming it, can refresh a brand. Take a long look at your offering and see if it can be repackaged. Then, use product introduction tactics to reintroduce your brand to the market.

Q: How to recursively send a nested hash the :[] method for any amount of levels? Context:
What I'm trying to do is make an Rspec shared_example called something like update response that checks a rails json response of an object and verifies that certain attributes are updated.  The json response may or may not have nested attributes. The keys cannot be known ahead of time.
Example:
Say I have a hash, hsh = {one_deep: 123, nested: {a: 1, b: 2}}:
I can dynamically send the hash a key if it's one level deep.
def get_value(some_key)
  hsh.send(:[], some_key)
end

get_value(:one_deep) # => 123

I can access a nested hash if I hard code the method chain:
def get_value(some_key, another_key)
  hsh.send(:[], some_key).send(:[], another_key)
end

get_value(:nested, :a) # => 1
get_value(:nested, :b) # => 2

Desired Endstate:
# The hash key could be 'n' levels deep
#
# This doesn't work... maybe use recursion somehow?
def get_value(*some_keys)
  some_keys.each do |key|
    hsh.send(:[], key)
  end
end

get_value(:nested, :a) # => should output 1
get_value(:nested, :b) # => should output 2

A: If you are using, Ruby 2.3.1, then you can use #dig method to fetch the value of a key from nested Hash.

A: For Ruby versions prior to 2.3.1 it's easy to implement Hash#dig.
class Hash
  def dig(*keys)
    keys.reduce(self) { |obj, k| obj && obj[k] }
  end
end

If obj[k] is nil, obj will be set to nil and remain equal to nil.
Let's try it.
h = { a: 1, b: { c: 2, d: { e: "cat" } } }
h.dig(:a)           #=> 1
h.dig(:dog)         #=> nil
h.dig(:b, :c)       #=> 2
h.dig(:b, :d)       #=> {:e=>"cat"}
h.dig(:b, :d, :e)   #=> "cat"
h.dig(:b, :pig, :e) #=> nil

recently we bought a Lenovo 20MU000CGE laptop with AMD Ryzen 5 Pro 2500U processor to evaluate the possibility of using it instead of Intel systems.
The laptop works well with both windows 10 and kubuntu 18.04.1 (need to add the boot options "noacpi" and "nomodeset" on kernel boot) if installed manually and we are satisfied with the performance, but has problems with installation via netboot using the OPSI server.
I tried to modify in various ways the file "/tftpboot/linux/pxelinux.cfg/default.menu" to see if it changed anything but without finding a solution and not see any error on screen.
I think the problem is the "miniroot" image but I'm not sure, any help are welcome because I have no other ideas.
Boot operating system from local drive.

in MBR mode we have a menu, where you can edit things like you did.
In UEFI mode this is not possible.
Hereby when a netboot product is set to setup and the first UEFI boot device is Ethernet, the bootimage is loaded. The bootimage changes the UEFI boot order to either boot a WINPE, in case you install a windows, or the installed Linux.
So in order to boot your client in UEFI mode, you have to set your ethernet Device as boot device #1 in the UEFI. In Addition oyu have to set the 'Uefi Boot' option in opsi and set a product on setup, then the bootimage should boot fine.
thanks for the answer, I write to info(at)uib.de and ask to have a trial "etc/opsi/modules" file with the support of the UEFI boot that at the moment we do not have and until now we have always used the legacy mode without problems.
I let you know if it resolves.
last Tuesday I received the trial license and verified that using the UEFI mode of the PXE the problem don't show up, so this is a possible solution.
However, colleagues and I prefer to manage the installation directly from the client PC instead of having to create it by hand in the backend, entering the MAC address... then I invest more times to understand the problem with the legacy mode and finaly I managed to generate an error message related to the amount of RAM available.
So I also fixed it in legacy mode by specifying in the boot options of the miniroot the amount of RAM it should use.

That doesn't sound like it's working like it should.
Wait, you mean you can't register new clients on the client itself via the boot menu (in UEFI mode)?
Bitte schreiben Sie Deutsch, when I'm responding in the German-speaking part of the forum!
there isn't a default menu present in UEFI netboot. While UEFI netboot appears to be the same as PXE it certainly is not.
To have clients boot into the bootimage you'd have to set a netboot product for a client to setup.
What you could do is use an USB stick prepared with the ISO of the bootimage to boot from on a client.


No need to ask why. Of course, everyone dreams about building a robust and resilient microservice. It can run all the time no matter where and what.
How? The obvious answer is to use Hystrix or Failsafe. However, the third party library usage will clatter your business code. You need to learn about these libraries. If you need to change some Fault Tolerance policies, you have to repackage your microservice.
Anything better out there? MicroProfile Fault Tolerance is the new future to build a resilient microservice.
What is Eclipse MicroProfile Fault Tolerance?
Retry: Define a criteria on when to retry.
Asynchronous: invoke the operation asynchronously.
All you need to do is to add these annotations to the methods or bean classes you would like to achieve fault tolerance.
This project started in April 2017 with 10 amazing contributors. We have released MicroProfile Fault Tolerance 1.0.
MicroProfile Fault Tolerance does not contain an implementation itself but provides the specified API, TCK and documentation.
How to use MicroProfile Fault Tolerance?
In order to recover from a brief network glitch, Retry can be used to invoke the same operation again. The @Retry annotation is to achieve this and it can be applied to Class level or method level.
Timeout prevents from the execution from waiting forever. @Timeout is used to specify a timeout and it can be used on methods or class.
When a timeout occurs, a TimeoutException will be thrown.
Circuit Breaker prevents repeating timeout, so that invoking dysfunctional services or APIs fail fast. Applying @CircuitBreaker on method or class level will have CircuitBreaker applied.
The above code-snippet means the method serviceA applies the CircuitBreaker policy, which is to open the circuit once 3 (4×0.75) failures occur among the rolling window of 4 consecutive invocations. The circuit will stay open for 1000ms and then back to half open. After 10 consecutive successful invocations, the circuit will be back to close again. When a circuit is open, A CircuitBreakerOpenException will be thrown.
The Bulkhead pattern is to prevent faults in one part of the system from cascading to the entire system, which might bring down the whole system. The implementation is to limit the number of concurrent requests accessing to an instance.
There are two different approaches to the bulkhead: thread pool isolation and semaphore isolation.
Annotating a method or a class with @Bulkhead applies a semaphore style bulkhead, which allows the specified concurrent number of requests.
When @Bulkhead is used with @Asynchronous, the thread pool isolation approach will be used. The thread pool approach allows to configure the maximum concurrent requests together with the waiting queue size. The semaphore approach only allows the concurrent number of requests configuration. @Asynchronous causes an invocation to be executed by a different thread.
Most previous annotations increase the success rate in method invocation. However, they cannot completely eliminate exception. Exception should still be dealt with. Often it is useful to fall back to a different operation on a dysfunctional operation. A method can be annotated with @Fallback, which means the method will have Fallback policy applied.
In the above code snippet, when the method fails and retry reaches its maximum retry, the fallback operation will be performed. The method StringFallbackHandler.handle(ExecutionContext context) will be invoked. The return type of StringFallbackHandler.handle(ExecutionContext context) must match the return type of serviceA().
If a fallback method is declared on the same class as the method that specified with @Fallback. Use this following way to specify fallback.
The above code snippet means when the method failed and retry reaches its maximum retry, the method fallbackForServiceB will be invoked. The return type of fallbackForServiceB must be String and the argument list for fallbackForServiceB must be the same as ServiceB.
The annotations declared by MicroProfile Fault Tolerance can be used in combination.
When reading till here, you might think. So all annotations. They are all static. Is it possible to configure them without repackaging the app?
All of the annotation parameters are configurable. This specification directly depends on MicroProfile Config to configure the parameters.
If the parameters for a particular annotation need to be configured with the same value for a particular class, use the config property <classname>/<annotation>/<parameter> for configuration.
For an instance, use the following config property to override all maxRetries for Retry specified on the class MyClient to 100.
Sometimes, the parameters need to be configured with the same value for the whole microservice.
Have you ever thought under some situations you would like to turn off Fault Tolerance? Can you achieve this by using the current third-party Fault Tolerance libraries? Probably not.
MicroProfile Fault Tolerance offers you a switch to turn off all other annotations except Fallback via the config property MP_Fault_Tolerance_NonFallback_Enabled. This feature is particular useful in some service mesh architecture e.g. Istio. Istio is a robust service mesh for microservices. The project was started by teams from Google and IBM, in partnership with the Envoy team at Lyft.
Istio offers Fault Tolerance aspects such as Retry, Circuit Breaker etc. Any microservice with Fault Tolerance integration will run into conflicts with Istio's Fault Tolerance policies such as Retries and Timeout. For instance, if a microservice has a maxRetires configured to be 3 and Istio configured to be 5, 15 retries will be performed. This is not what you would expect. MicroProfile Fault Tolerance provides a way to solve this. Setting the property MP_Fault_Tolerance_NonFallback_Enabled with the value of false turns off all Fault Tolerance policies apart from Fallback. Therefore, the microservice with MicroProfile Fault Tolerance can utilise Istio's Fault Tolerance without any issues.
The specification can be accessed from here.
The annotations @Asynchronous, @Bulkhead, @CircuitBreaker, @Fallback, @Retry and @Timeout are all interceptor bindings. All annotations apart from @Fallback, can bound at the class level or method level where @Fallback can only be bound at method level.
We have released Fault Tolerance 1.0 in September 2017 and plan to work through the issues on MicroProfile Fault Tolerance repo. If you would like to see new features in the next release, please log some issues there. We have weekly hangout to discuss the design issues. Please import the MicroProfile Calendar, which can be found from MicroProfile wiki. Hope to meet you on the hangout!

Onglyza Heart Failure, Cardiac Arrest and Death Lawsuits
Patients who take Onglyza to treat Type 2 diabetes may have an increased risk of suffering congestive heart failure, pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer and other serious side effects.
The popular Type 2 diabetes drug Onglyza may be linked to an increased risk of potentially life-threatening side effects in users, including congestive heart failure, pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, cardiac arrest and thyroid cancer, according to a growing body of research. This is despite claims by Onglyza makers AstraZeneca and Bristol-Myers Squibb that the prescription drug is a safe and effective means of treating Type 2 diabetes symptoms in adults. If you took Onglyza in the past, and you have since suffered a major adverse medical event, like congestive heart failure, you may be entitled to financial compensation for your injuries and medical expenses. Contact a reputable Onglyza attorney today to discuss filing an Onglyza injury claim against AstraZeneca and Bristol-Myers Squibb.
Onglyza Alternatives for Type 2 Diabetes
Patients with chronic medical conditions like Type 2 diabetes expect their prescription drugs to effectively treat their disease without putting them at risk for any additional complications. Unfortunately, research has shown that Onglyza and other DPP-4 inhibitor diabetes drugs may expose users to cardiovascular side effects and other potentially life-threatening injuries. In addition to making lifestyle changes related to diet and exercise, Type 2 diabetes patients who want to avoid taking Onglyza may try alternative treatment methods like:
Chiropractic treatments
What is Onglyza? Type 2 diabetes medication prescribed to control high blood sugar in Type 2 diabetes patients.
Onglyza (saxagliptin) belongs to a class of prescription medications called dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, also known as incretin mimetic drugs, which are commonly prescribed in combination with diet and exercise to control high blood sugar in adults with Type 2 diabetes. Approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2009, Onglyza works by acting on a hormone called GLP-1, which stimulates the growth of cells in the pancreas that produce insulin. Since it first entered the market for consumer use, Onglyza has become a popular diabetes drug, because it can effectively control blood sugar without causing weight gain, like so many other diabetes medications on the market.
Potential Side Effects Leading to an Onglyza Lawsuit
Millions of people with Type 2 diabetes have been prescribed DPP-4 inhibitors like Onglyza since the medications first entered the market, and only now are these patients being warned that their diabetes drugs may be exposing them to serious health risks. Among the side effects allegedly associated with Onglyza and other DPP-4 inhibitors are:
When DPP-4 drugs like Onglyza first became available for consumer use, they were "touted as the 'new darlings of diabetes treatment' – the biggest breakthrough since the discovery of insulin nearly a hundred years before," according to British Medical Journal editor Deborah Cohen. However, doctors across the country are now coming forward and voicing their concerns about the potential for Onglyza treatment to cause heart failure, pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, thyroid cancer and other side effects in users.
Link Between Onglyza and Side Effects
Because Onglyza is still a relatively new medication, the potential long-term risks of the diabetes drug are still not known. However, a growing number of studies have linked Onglyza use to a risk of potentially life-threatening injuries, with Onglyza side effect research dating back several years. In a study published in the medical journal Diabetes in March 2013, researchers found evidence of "eccentric" pre-cancerous cell growth in the pancreases of patients taking incretin mimetic drugs, including small benign tumors called adenomas. According to the researchers, "Since the standard of care of a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, because of the risk of conversion to malignancy, even if benign, is surgical resection [i.e. removal], patients exposed to incretin therapy would seem to be at increased risk of requiring pancreatic surgery."
Shortly after this pancreatic cancer study was published, the FDA issued a drug safety communication indicating that the agency would be launching an investigation into the potential risk of pancreatic cancer from Onglyza use. In the years since, researchers have linked Onglyza treatment to other alleged complications, including heart failure, thyroid cancer, pancreatitis and wrongful death. In another study published in the New England Journal of Medicine in April 2015, a report that followed the publication of the SAVOR clinical trial, researchers found that Onglyza and other incretin mimetic drugs increased a patient's risk of hospitalization for heart failure by 27%.
Lawsuits Against Onglyza for Heart Failure, Cardiac Arrest and Death
There are more than 29 million people in the United States who have diabetes, and Type 2 diabetes accounts for approximately 90% to 95% of all diagnosed cases of diabetes among Americans. Many of these diabetes patients are prescribed DPP-4 inhibitor medications like Onglyza, unaware that the prescription drugs may put them at risk for devastating side effects, like heart failure, cardiac arrest, pancreatic cancer, pancreatitis and wrongful death. As more information comes to light about the alleged risk of cardiovascular side effects from Onglyza, Onglyza attorneys across the country are investigating claims on behalf of patients who believe they have been harmed by the Type 2 diabetes medication.
FDA, Onglyza and Side Effects
December 2008 – The FDA issues an announcement requiring the makers of new Type 2 diabetes medications to provide evidence that their products are not associated with a significant increase in the risk of adverse cardiovascular events.
June 13, 2011 – A safety communication issued by the FDA indicates that Victoza, a diabetes drug similar to Onglyza, may cause thyroid cancer and acute pancreatitis in patients.
November 2011 – Information about the alleged risk of pancreatitis, a potentially life-threatening condition characterized by inflammation of the pancreas, is added to Onglyza's warnings and precautions section.
March 14, 2013 – A safety alert is issued by the FDA, indicating that the agency would be evaluating "unpublished new findings by a group of academic researchers that suggest an increased risk of pancreatitis and pre-cancerous cellular changes called pancreatic duct metaplasia in patients with type 2 diabetes treated with a class of drugs called incretin mimetics"
February 11, 2014 – The FDA issues a drug safety communication announcing that it has requested clinical trial data from Onglyza's manufacturing company, in order to investigate a possible link between the Type 2 diabetes drug and heart failure side effects.
April 13, 2015 – An FDA analysis of clinical trial data warns that Type 2 diabetes patients who use Onglyza may be considerably more likely to develop heart failure and more likely to die. The agency indicates that it will recommend changes to the Onglyza label to warn patients and doctors about this alleged risk.
Onglyza Side Effect Studies
March 2013 – In a study published in the journal Diabetes, researchers dissected the pancreases of three groups of deceased patients: diabetics who used an incretin mimetic drug, diabetics who used another medication, and non-diabetic patients. According to the report, the incretin mimetic group had 40% more massive pancreases, and researchers also found evidence of "eccentric" precancerous cell growth in this group.
September 2013 – Dr. Anthony DeMaria, editor in chief of the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, advises Type 2 diabetes patients at risk for heart failure to avoid using Onglyza.
April 2015 – The New England Journal of Medicine published a study indicating that incretin mimetic diabetes drugs like Onglyza appear to increase a patient's risk of hospitalization for heart failure by 27%, according to the findings of the SAVOR clinical trial.
Why We Think AstraZeneca and Bristol-Myers Squibb Should Be Held Liable for Onglyza Congestive Heart Failure, Cardiac Arrest
Onglyza has become a best-selling diabetes drug for AstraZeneca and Bristol-Myers Squibb, and the medication is expected to generate $2.47 billion in annual sales for the drug companies in 2018, as the controversial class of DPP-4 inhibitor medications achieve wider use. However, more and more consumers are becoming aware of the alleged link between Onglyza and severe side effects, and future product liability claims filed against the makers of Onglyza will likely allege the following:
That AstraZeneca and Bristol-Myers Squibb manufactured a defective drug
That the drug makers had a duty to ensure that Onglyza was safe before making it available to the public
That the drug makers failed to evaluate all Onglyza safety information before submitting the medication for FDA approval
That the drug makers knew or should have known about the alleged risk of side effects from Onglyza
That the drug makers sold a diabetes medication that posed a risk of cardiovascular complications and other adverse events for users
That the drug makers failed to provide consumers and doctors with adequate warnings about these risks
What should you do? If you have suffered congestive heart failure, cardiac arrest or another serious side effect, you should contact a lawyer as soon as possible to discuss filing an Onglyza drug injury lawsuit.
Without treatment, Type 2 diabetes can lead to devastating medical complications, like blindness, kidney damage, loss of limbs, nerve problems and problems with sexual function. Unfortunately, the prescription drugs commonly prescribed to treat Type 2 diabetes, like Onglyza and other DPP-4 inhibitors, are believed to pose their own set of serious risks. If you believe you have been adversely affected by cardiovascular side effects of Onglyza, consult a knowledgeable Onglyza lawyer today for legal help. You may have grounds to file an Onglyza lawsuit against AstraZeneca and Bristol-Myers Squibb, in order to seek fair and timely reimbursement for your alleged Onglyza-related injuries.
