King James Version (KJV) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up , and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me. | 1 I will exalt you, O LORD, for you lifted me out of the depths and did not let my enemies gloat over me. |
2 O LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me. | 2 O LORD my God, I called to you for help and you healed me. |
3 O LORD, thou hast brought up my soul from the grave: thou hast kept me alive , that I should not go down to the pit. | 3 O LORD, you brought me up from the grave; you spared me from going down into the pit. |
4 Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness. | 4 Sing to the LORD, you saints of his; praise his holy name. |
5 For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. | 5 For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may remain for a night, but rejoicing comes in the morning. |
6 And in my prosperity I said , I shall never be moved . | 6 When I felt secure, I said, "I will never be shaken." |
7 LORD, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face, and I was troubled . | 7 O LORD, when you favored me, you made my mountain stand firm; but when you hid your face, I was dismayed. |
8 I cried to thee, O LORD; and unto the LORD I made supplication . | 8 To you, O LORD, I called; to the Lord I cried for mercy: |
9 What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth? | 9 "What gain is there in my destruction, in my going down into the pit? Will the dust praise you? Will it proclaim your faithfulness? |
10 Hear , O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be thou my helper . | 10 Hear, O LORD, and be merciful to me; O LORD, be my help." |
11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness; | 11 You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, |
12 To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent . O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever. | 12 that my heart may sing to you and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give you thanks forever. |

Mobile data rates
giffgaff have easily the best rates in the UK for mobile internet. If you buy any of their goodybags costing £10 or more, you get unlimited mobile data included. And unlike other networks, it's truly unlimited mobile internet with no hidden caps and no fair use terms in the small print. Just as much data as you want on your phone every month.
If you use mobile data less often or just don't want to buy a goodybag, the PAYG rate is also great value at just 20p per day.
To be more specific, mobile data is charged at 20p/MB for the first 1MB each day. Then the charge is frozen at 20p until you reach 20MB. That sounds quite complicated so we made a simple graph to show you exactly what mobile internet will cost you without a goodybag:
giffgaff PAYG data pricing graph
So as long as you use less than 20MB, you will only pay 20p for each day you use mobile data.
But how does this compare to other networks' PAYG data rates? It's actually fantastic value.
Data pricing comparison graph
Looking at the graph above, it's pretty clear which networks are good value for mobile data and which are not. Also, if you know how much data you use each day, you can work out how much you'd pay on each network. It should also be obvious from the graph that if you're keeping under 20MB use each day, you'll end up saving a ton on giffgaff compared to any of the major high-street mobile networks. And if you find you need more data than this, the unlimited internet deal with giffgaff goodybags is massively cheaper than anyone else.

Armenia is in the process of establishing a new OSH system and the coordination between the different elements of the system is still uneven. Tripartite partners are working in good cooperation. The country has a big deficit of modern information, training and practical materials on OSH. In the transition period many big enterprises were closed or reorganized into small and medium size enterprises. These enterprises lack practical OSH information, some Soviet regulations are still used in enterprises.
Armenia has approved a new Labour Code that has come into force in 2008, but there is no national law on social insurance of workers yet. The Union of Manufacturers and Businessmen of Armenia has initiated cooperation with the ILO Moscow in the field of vocational training, OSH consultations and training and in promotion of the new interstate GOST 12.0.230-2007. The OSH Information Center has been created by the Union of Manufactures and Businessmen in Yerevan with the support of the ILO. The Center will provide consultations, training materials and publications for the employers in the country.
A National OSH Profile was created in January 2008. The profile contains a deep and detailed analysis of the OSH situation in the country and makes good practical conclusions. The development of the national OSH system, creation of an accident insurance system, implementation of OSH management system, improving of OSH legislation, creation of the OSH training and information systems, development of social partnership and coordination between OSH authorities are tasks to be included into the National OSH programme in 2008. The Armenian partners notes that the profile as a very good document for effective planning of actions in the sphere of OSH.
In addition to the introduction of ILO-OSH 2001 (GOST 12.0.230-2007) and development of an occupational accident insurance system, another element of the third Finnish funded OSH project, to apply the ILO WISE methodology (low cost self improvement of working conditions) at SMEs has been realized.

The Reason I Became A Helping Professional
What's most rewarding about working with people?
It's the privilege of witnessing them drop all their masks and get real, and realize their own value and worth. I've been there and am deeply empathic to their situations. I became a helping professional not only because I believe we can heal but because we can't do this alone. We need help and guidance from people who not only understand but who have healthy relationships and can be role models for us.
I'm not a relationship expert and activist just because I have devoted over ten thousand hours to working in my field, but because my life is an open book and testament to my practice. I know what it's like to feel lost, heartbroken and desperate to be loved. Afraid to be alone, terrified to let go of a bad relationship, worried I would never find another one. I know what it takes to feel heal, and deal with what stands in between us and what our hearts truly desire. I made the trek, did whatever it took and not only found true love, I found the thing I had always longed for—the one thing no one could ever take away from me, that would never leave me, that would always love me…at last. The Divine inside of ME. And now, so can you!
Success Stories
Connecting with my daughter in a new way
"Today is my birthday, and my daughter Maya and I are hanging out and going to Good Vibrations (she is 20). Your free Emotional and Physical Self-Defense class has spurred more conversations between us than I ever could have thought possible."
THANK YOU!!—Beth, businesswoman
Getting in touch with myself
"Maryanne's work has helped me "get in touch" with my inner self – and it has been so valuable! Her techniques have helped me to avoid making major mistakes in my business, and also to get in touch with and resolve issues that were holding me back in my personal life, and have been for years! Thank you so much!"—Erin F. website designer
Blooming after being discarded for a younger, more perfect woman
"Your first workshop was just the impetus I needed to make a leap of faith. I had done a lot since my husband left, getting my survival worked out and then starting on my spiritual self. And some on my physical—had lost 40 pounds without trying and felt so much better. But your workshop made me realize just how much more I was. And this last one was a push off the cliff into flying free and easy. I feel like a flower that has been in a dormant state for years—now I'm basking in the sunlight of my friends, realizing how juicy I really am, open and blooming. When Judy the fashion advisor came by and helped me, I saw just how attractive I could be—that I had hidden in my overweight and sad clothes so not to be noticed and hurt more. She opened my eyes and FEELINGS for my beauty!" —Brook, bookkeeper
Finding, getting, and keeping...a man?
I had the opportunity to participate in one of Maryanne's workshops "Find the man, get the man, keep the man" in 2007. During this workshop what I found was that it wasn't about "the man" at all. As I completed the workshop, in hindsight what I discovered, was that it was about finding, getting and keeping "myself."
Equipped with the necessary tools (or so I thought!) and reentering the dating scene, I felt I was good to go! However, during the process, not only did I fall asleep, but found myself ignoring and disregarding everything I had learned and not just falling, but "diving" into any available pothole. Not only had the tool belt I had so tightly fastened on my waist start sliding, but well…..the undergarments lost their elasticity too!
Fast forward….After much heartache, mostly for not seeing the red flags or really listening (or hearing) my internal instincts, I felt it was time to revisit my techniques (or lack thereof) and read Hindsight. The stories were riveting and I found myself breathless as I read, unable to disconnect from my own past experiences, hungry to read more. After finishing the book the most important insight was reclaiming (and wearing) my tool belt (tightly) and prioritizing how to value myself as a woman and respect all that I am.
Maryanne is a brilliant writer and will keep you captivated and enthralled, to the point of no return. Forget that you may have other things to do. It was eye-opening and refreshing remembering how to be accountable for my own actions and decisions again! Her humor, compassion and grace in which she shares her stories and sensibility will definitely make you wake up and keep you focused on what really matters…Putting yourself first and not feeling guilty…Only remembering that YOU must love YOU before anyone else will.
This book isn't just for women. Rather, it is for everyone who wants to reclaim their own voice…. Oh…. and avoid the potholes!—K.B., businesswoman

It's a smart move, since much of Paranormal Activity is as exciting as the outtakes from a particularly dull episode of "Big Brother." Careful handling is a must for the picture to capitalize on its strength—an incremental sense of dread that leads to some genuine jolts in the final half-hour. Those shocks should generate an avid cult following, but writer-director Oren Peli's housebound horror tale is unlikely to cast a massive box-office spell like the Blair Witch phenomenon.
The setup is as elemental as can be. Young middle-class San Diego couple Micah (Micah Sloat) and Katie (Katie Featherson) are being spooked by strange noises in their new home. Eager for answers, Micah decides to set up night-vision camera equipment in their bedroom, in addition to his own roving camcorder. (As in Blair Witch, all the action is purportedly found footage from this amateur shoot.)
We soon learn that Katie has a history of otherworldly encounters, dating back to a tragic incident from her childhood. The couple calls in an ineffectual psychic, Micah tempts the spirit world with a Ouija board, but their after-dark visitations just get louder and more terrifying, culminating in one particularly momentous night.
The most effective sequences stem from the time-coded bedroom surveillance footage (always speeded up to the moments when doors open by themselves and shadows climb the walls). The banality of the couple's day-to-day existence when they're not hearing unwelcome guests enhances the sense of realism, but it can be awfully trying for viewers who just want to get to the good stuff already. Sloat and Featherson have a laid-back naturalism that serves the premise well, and Sloat is just smug enough that we kind of welcome the hell that awaits him.
Paranormal Activity ultimately does deliver in a way that Blair Witch never did, but its achingly slow buildup is a test not just of an audience's patience but the power of hype surrounding the latest alternative scary movie.

I am still alittle confused about the $5000.00 allowed "start up deductions". Maybe someone here has the answers:
This will be the first home that I will rent out. I just bought it as an REO and am waiting for escrow to close.
Follow-Up Postings:
Well--this is Feb. 2010. If you are acguiring the house now and working on it all summer to prepare it for rental, you will have till April 15, 2011 to file and take all the deductions possible. You should have it rented out by then. This is the first time I've heard of startup costs. We've always deducted any costs associated with a business or a rental, including mileage to pickup materials. |
I've never heard of this either. I use TurnoTax Premier (the one for rental properties), and don't remember having to have special deductions for things like this. |
I too am a landlord and I echo the others. I don't have a clue what you are talking about. |

I have read this in several NOLO books. Remember that this is my first rental property and it needs some work done to it to be considered available to rent. Here is some of what they say... "You can deduct up to $5000 of your start-up expenses the first year that you're in business. Start up expenses are any expense you incur before offering your property for rent, so long as they're related to getting your business up and running. Once the property is posted as available to rent, then all your expenses are cosidered operating expenses. Start-up expenses can include "repairs to get the property ready to rent,office supplies, advertising and educational how-to books, etc." "A special tax rule allows you to deduct up to $5000 in start up expenses the first year you are in business, and then deduct the remainder, if any,in equal amounts over the next 15 years. The date you offer your first property for rent is considered the date your business starts.".. NOLO Evert Landlords Tax Deduction Guide . |
In many places renting property is not, by itself, a business. Do you need a business license? Tread carefully. Most of the expenses are already deductible, so what expenses would qualify as a "business expense" that would not be deductible anyway? |
You should check with your CPA tax person who specilizes in rentals or businesses. |
- Posted by garden_graphic_gal (My Page) on Sun, Feb 28, 10 at 21:14
OK, forget about the business and/or start-up expenses.... you are saying that if I buy a home today and take a few months to repair and improve it to a point that it is rentable, I can take all available deductions for repairs and depreciations for improvements from the day I purchase it, as long as it gets rented by the end of the year? I do not have to wait until I advertise the home for rent to be able to take these deductions? |
You should read IRS publication 527 (link below) and see your tax accountant, if taxes are material to your purchase and what you spend to make the property rentable. There is a difference in tax treatment between maintenance and investment expenditures. It would be wise to understand the whole subject better at the outset so you can make good decisions and keep and retain proper records to back up your tax returns. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Publication 527, Residential Rental Property
As long as your intent is to rent the place you can take all the deductions. When you do rent it it shows that your intentions are serious. |

Manyhosta~Thank you so much for this link. I have the 4562 form but this publication is very helpful. Thanks. hendricus~Thank you. I was getting confused with what I had read about "business rental start up" but since it is only one property and I do not need a business license,that makes perfect sense to me. |

Hi all,
I'm getting ready to help a friend clean his carpets next weekend. He has two dogs and lot of stains (primarily old vomit stains) and lots of areas of dark gunk (I'm assuming oil and dirt from the dogs because it tends to accumulate where they lie). I've been using Charlie's Soap (half strength dilution) in my own carpet cleaner and have had OK results. My friend's sister recommended Folex -- I've seen it before but don't remember where. She claims it's doing a good job on her berber carpets and a decent job on cut pile. Does anyone have any history of using this product and were the results good? I also thought I'd try pretreating the really dirty areas with a very light solution of Tide and a scrub brush to help break down the fats and oils and dirt and then rinse/vac a few times to see if that helps with the stubborn areas. ANy other suggestions would be appreciated! |

I've had good luck with Oxyclean. I use a scoop or two dissolved in hot water in a rental machine and carpets come out looking great. |
The best cleaner is a product called "A Clear Choice". I have Folex which is good, but "A Clear Choice" will make spots disappear before your eyes! |

Text of report in English by Cuban news agency ACN website
[Full text of the 308th instalment of Fidel Castro's "Reflections by
Comrade Fidel" commentary series: "NATO's Genocidal Role (Part 3)."]
On 23 February, under the title "Cynicism's danse macabre," I stated:
"The politics of plunder imposed by the United States and its NATO
allies in the Middle East is in crisis."
"Thanks to Sadat's betrayal at Camp David, the Palestinian Arab State
has not come into existence, despite the United Nations agreements of
November 1947, and Israel has become a powerful nuclear force allied
with the United States and NATO.
"The US military-industrial complex supplies tens of billions of dollars
every year to Israel and to the very Arab states that it subjugates and
"The genie is out of the bottle and NATO doesn't know how to control it.
"They are going to try and take maximum advantage of the lamentable
events in Libya. No one is capable of knowing at this time what is
happening there. All of the figures and versions, even the most
improbable, have been disseminated by the empire through the mass media,
sowing chaos and misinformation.
"It is evident that a civil war is developing in Libya. Why and how was
this unleashed? Who will suffer the consequences? The Reuters news
agency, repeating the opinion of the well-known Nomura Japanese bank,
said that the price of oil could surpass all limits."
"...What will be the consequences for the food crisis?
"The principal NATO leaders are exalted. British Prime Minister David
Cameron, informed ANSA, '...admitted in a speech in Kuwait that the
Western countries made a mistake in supporting non-democratic
governments in the Arab world.'"
"His French colleague Nicolas Sarkozy declared, 'The prolonged brutal
bloody repression of the Libyan civilian population is repugnant.'"
"Italian Foreign Minister Franco Frattini declared 'believable' the
figure of one thousand dead in Tripoli [...] 'the tragic figure will be
a bloodbath.'"
"Hillary Clinton declared, '...the bloodbath is completely unacceptable
has to stop...'"
"Ban Ki-moon added, 'The use of violence in the country is absolutely
"...'the Security Council will act in accordance with what the
international community decides.'"
"'We are considering a number of options.'"
"What Ban Ki-moon is really waiting for is that Obama give the final
"The President of the United States spoke Wednesday afternoon and stated
that the Secretary of State would leave for Europe in order to reach an
agreement with the NATO European allies as to what measures to take.
Noticeable on his face was his readiness to take on the right-wing
Republican John McCain; Joseph Lieberman, the pro-Israel Senator from
Connecticut; and Tea Party leaders, in order to guarantee his nomination
by the Democratic Party.
"The empire's mass media have prepared the ground for action. There
would be nothing strange about a military intervention in Libya, which
would, additionally, guarantee Europe almost two million barrels of
light oil a day, if events do not occur beforehand to put an end to the
presidency or life of Gaddafi.
"In any event, Obama's role is complicated enough. What would the Arab
and Islamic world's reaction be if much blood is spilt in this country
in such an adventure? Would the revolutionary wave unleashed in Egypt
stop a NATO intervention?
"In Iraq the innocent blood of more than a million Arab citizens was
shed when this country was invaded on false pretenses. Mission
accomplished, George W. Bush proclaimed.
"No one in the world will ever be in favour of the deaths of defenceless
civilians in Libya or anywhere else. I ask myself, would the United
States and NATO apply that principle to the defenceless civilians killed
every day by yankee drones and this organization's soldiers in
Afghanistan and Pakistan?
"It is a danse macabre of cynicism."
While I was meditating on these events, the United Nations debate
scheduled for yesterday, Tuesday, October 25 on the "Necessity of ending
the commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States on
Cuba began. Thi s is something which has been demanded by the vast
majority of this institution's member countries for 20 years.
This time the numerous elemental and just arguments -which for United
States governments were no more than rhetorical exercises -revealed,
like never before, the political and moral weakness of the most powerful
empire ever to have existed, and to whose oligarchical interests and
insatiable thirst for power and riches all the planet's inhabitants have
been subjected, including the very people of that country.
The United States is tyrannizing and plundering the globalized world
with its political, economic, technological and military might.
That truth is becoming more and more obvious in the wake of the honest
and courageous debates which have taken place in the United Nations
during the last 20 years, with the support of states which one would
imagine are expressing the will of the vast majority of the planet's
Before [Cuban Foreign Minister] Bruno's speech, many country
organizations expressed their points of view through one of their
members. The first was Argentina, in the name of the Group of 77 plus
China; followed by Egypt, in the name of the Non-Aligned Movement;
Kenya, in the name of the African Union; Belize, in the name of CARICOM;
Kazakhstan, in the name of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation; and
Uruguay, in the name of MERCOSUR.
Independently of these expressions of a collective nature, China, a
country of growing political and economic weight in the world, India and
Indonesia strongly supported the resolution via their ambassadors;
between the three of them they represent 2.7bn inhabitants. The
ambassadors of the Russian Federation, Belarus, South Africa, Algeria,
Venezuela and Mexico did likewise. The impassioned words of solidarity
expressed by the ambassador of Belize, speaking on behalf of the
Caribbean community, and those of St Vincent & the Grenadines and
Bolivia, resonated among the poorest countries of the Caribbean and
Latin America. Their arguments in the context of the solidarity of our
people -despite a blockade which has already lasted 50 years -will be a
constant stimulus for our doctors, educators and scientists.
Nicaragua spoke before the vote, to bravely explain why it would vote
against this perfidious measure.
The United States representative also spoke before the vote, in order to
explain the inexplicable. I felt sorry for him. It is the role that they
assigned to him.
At the hour of voting, two countries were absent: Libya and Sweden;
three abstained: Marshall Islands, Micronesia and Palau; two voted
against: the United States and Israel. Adding together those who voted
against, abstained or were absent: the United States, with 313 million
inhabitants; Israel, with 7.4 million; Sweden, with 9.1 million; Libya,
with 6.5 million; Marshall Islands, with 67,100; Micronesia, 106,800;
Palau, with 20,900, the total amounts to 336.948 million, equivalent to
4.8 per cent of the world population, which has already risen to seven
billion this month.
After the vote, speaking in the name of the European Union, Poland
explained the votes of members of this bloc which, in spite of its close
alliance with the United States and its obligatory participation in the
blockade, is against
this criminal measure.
Subsequently, 17 countries addressed the Assembly to explain, resolutely
and decisively, why they voted for the resolution against the blockade.
I will continue Friday the 28th.

I just moved to South Carolina from a kudzu-free state, but I've heard all about its invasive qualities. I live on a wooded lot with a forest on two sides. I see that some of the trees on the edge of the woods that border my property have kudzu growing on them. About one third of the trees are affected. I don't see kudzu growing on any of our trees yet, but I've heard that it can spread quickly.
Is there anything I can do to 'head it off'? Or should I just strip it from the tree trunks once a week to keep it from getting a toehold? Should I report it to the local DNR office, or is kudzu pretty common around here? I live in Anderson, not too far from Greenville. Thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Look for it first to appear on the ground, it will probably be noticeable there before you see it in the trees. If you find it and it is small, try to dig it out. If it is too far along for that, you can get florist picks and put herbicide in them - stick it in the ground and stick the stem of one plant inside so that it can "soak it up". |
- Posted by trianglejohn z7b NC (email@example.com) on Fri, Nov 23, 12 at 20:34
I've had good luck just snipping or stomping the seedlings when they appear (usually in early summer). They look like super healthy soybean sprouts, same leaves just a little bigger. Kudzu spreads a lot by seeds, so expect to patrol the perimeter and do a lot of stomping. There isn't much you can do for the vines that reach across the property line in the tree canopy. The best thing to do is go into the adjoining forest and hack the mama stems to kill or reduce that vine - but you'll need to do a lot of hacking to keep the vines from marching onto your property. You'll find lots of poison ivy and briers while doing it - it won't be fun. Keeping kudzu off of wooded property is a lot of work, which is why a lot of people give up and let it take over. PS - my mother was from Belton. I love that part of the state. I had good friends that lived in Pickens but they've moved away, now I rarely get to spend any time in the upstate. You're living in some of the prettiest land around. |

Fundamentals of Symbian C++/Leaves & The Cleanup Stack
Two of the most fundamental idioms within Symbian C++ are its lightweight exception handling, which is called leaving, and its use of a cleanup stack to manage the destruction of objects and cleanup of resources in the event of an exceptional condition (such as allocation failure due to insufficient memory). A leaving function may be described as one that, when it detects an error, exits at the point of the error and unwinds, performing memory cleanup, until a leave handler is found. This is in contrast to a function that returns an error back to the calling function.
This topic explains the exception handling mechanism, how memory cleanup is managed, and how to write code to avoid memory leaks when a leave occurs.
On desktop software platforms, the implications of a memory leak are not particularly significant; memory is plentiful and any that is leaked gets reclaimed when an application is closed or the system rebooted. It's important to remember that the Symbian platform was designed to perform well on devices with limited memory that are often not rebooted for days, weeks or even months. Applications are often left running indefinitely rather than closed. Proper use of the cleanup stack will eliminate memory and other resource leaks that could otherwise occur during exception conditions. (See also, a separate article that explains how to eliminate memory leaks in Symbian C++ code).
Symbian C++ was designed before the C++ standard had been formalized, and before exception handling using try, catch or throw was fully supported by compilers. In addition, exception-handling support had the potential to bloat the size of compiled code and add to memory overheads at runtime, so standard C++ exception handling was not used.
The Symbian platform now supports C++ standard exceptions, which makes it easier to port existing C++ code to the Symbian platform. See A Comparison of Leaves and Exceptions. However, leaves are still a fundamental part of Symbian error handling and are used throughout the system. So even if your code uses only standard C++ exceptions, it's important to know how to blend leaves and exceptions so hybrid code works correctly.
Leaves are implemented in terms of standard C++ exceptions and it is possible to mix leaves and exceptions provided care is taken.
A leave is equivalent to throwing in standard C++ exception handling. Like C++ exceptions, leaves are used to propagate errors to where they can be handled. They should not be used to direct the normal flow of program logic. A leave does not terminate the flow of execution on the Symbian platform (in contrast to panics).
Causes of a Leave
A leave may occur in a function if it:
- explicitly calls one of the system functions in class User that cause a leave, such as User::Leave() or User::LeaveIfError()
- uses the Symbian C++ overloaded form of operator new, which takes ELeave as a parameter, and there is insufficient remaining memory to allocate the object
- calls another function that may leave (for either of the reasons above) without using a TRAP harness.
Let's now examine each of these ways of leaving in turn.
Functions in Class User That Cause a Leave
The class User is a static utility class, defined in e32std.h. The class provides a set of exported system functions, among which are some that cause a leave in the current thread. The functions are defined as follows:
IMPORT_C static void Leave(TInt aReason);
IMPORT_C static void LeaveNoMemory();
IMPORT_C static TInt LeaveIfError(TInt aReason);
IMPORT_C static TAny* LeaveIfNull(TAny* aPtr);
The various methods:
- User::Leave() leaves using the integer value passed into it as a leave code.
- User::LeaveIfError() tests an integer parameter passed into it and calls User::Leave() (passing the integer value as a leave code) if the value is less than zero. (The KErrXXXX error codes defined in e32err.h have negative values, for example KErrNoMemory is -4.) User::LeaveIfError() is useful for turning functions which return error codes (one of the KErrXXXX error constants defined in e32err.h) into functions that leave with the same value. Note that it is poor design to have a function that both leaves and returns an error code.
- User::LeaveNoMemory()simply leaves with KErrNoMemory; it is equivalent to calling User::Leave(KErrNoMemory).
- User::LeaveIfNull() takes a pointer and leaves with KErrNoMemory if it is NULL.
Heap Allocation Using new(ELeave)
Symbian C++ overloads the global operator new to leave if there is insufficient heap memory for successful allocation. Use of this overload allows the pointer returned from the allocation to be used without a further test that the allocation was successful, because it would leave if the allocation had failed. For example:
CBook* InitializeBookL() // The 'L' is part of the Symbian C++ naming
// convention and indicates the
// function can leave.
CBook* book = new(ELeave) CBook();
book->Initialize(); // No need to test book against NULL.
return (book);
The code above is preferable to the following:
CBook* InitializeBookL()
CBook* book = new CBook();
return (book);
Or to the following:
CBook* InitializeBook()
CBook* book = new CBook();
if (book)
return (book);
return (NULL);
Leaving is preferable to the above example as it not only simplifies the InitializeBook() method, it also simplifies code that has called this method.
Code That May Leave
How do you know whether a function may leave? As the previous section mentioned briefly, there is a naming convention to indicate the potential for a leave within a function – rather like the C++ throw(...) exception specification.
If a function may leave, its name must end with a trailing L to identify it as such.
Of all Symbian C++ naming conventions, this is probably the most important rule: if a leaving function is not named correctly, callers of that function cannot know that they need to take steps to handle a potential exception. If a leave occurs and it is not TRAPed, a panic will result.
Since it is not part of the C++ standard, the trailing L cannot be checked during compilation, and can sometimes be forgotten. The Symbian Foundation provides a helpful tool, LeaveScan to check code for incorrectly named leaving functions. Other source code scanning tools (e.g. like "Coverty Prevent") can also be used for this purpose: information on tools can be found in the Tools category.
Leaving functions should not also return an error code. Any error that occurs in a leaving function should be passed out through the leave code; if the function does not leave, it is deemed to have succeeded and will return normally. Generally, leaving functions should return void unless they return a pointer or reference to a resource that they have allocated.
The TRAP, TRAPD, and TRAP_IGNORE Macros
The TRAP and TRAPD macros are harnesses that trap leaves and allow them to be handled:
TRAPD(result, MayLeaveL());
If a leave occurs inside MayLeaveL(), the stack is unwound, any memory on the cleanup stack is freed, and control will return to just after the TRAP harness macro. The result variable then contains the error code associated with the leave (or KErrNone if no leave occurred).
Any functions called by MayLeaveL() are executed within the context of the TRAP harness. Any leave occurring during the execution of MayLeaveL() is trapped regardless of how many calls deep in the call stack it happens.
TRAP/TRAPD are therefore approximately equivalent to the catch {…} of C++ standard exception handling.
The TRAP and TRAPD macros differ only in that TRAPD declares the variable in which the leave error code is returned, while code using TRAP must declare a TInt variable itself first. Thus the following code segments are equivalent:
TRAPD(result, MayLeaveL());
if (KErrNone!=result)
// Handle error.
TInt result;
TRAP(result, MayLeaveL());
if (KErrNone!=result)
// Handle error.
TRAP macros can also be nested to catch and handle leaves at different levels, where they can best be dealt with. However, each TRAP has an impact on executable size and execution speed, so the number of TRAPs should be minimized where possible. For example, suppose that the following function needs to call a number of functions that leave, but must not leave itself. It might seem straightforward simply to put each call in a TRAP harness:
TInt NonLeavingFunction()
TRAPD(result, MayLeaveL());
if (KErrNone==result)
TRAP(result, MayAlsoLeaveL());
if (KErrNone==result)
TRAP(result, MayBeALeaverL());
// Return any error or KErrNone if successful.
return (result);
The following refactoring is preferable for efficiency:
TInt NonLeavingFunction()
TRAPD(result, LeavingFunctionL());
// Return any error or KErrNone if successful.
return (result);
void LeavingFunctionL()
If you have no need to take any action (or even be notified that a Leave occurred!), you may use the TRAP_IGNORE macro instead. This harness is equivalent to a TRAPD() that isn't followed by any code to evaluate its result parameter:
What Causes Memory Leaks?
If memory is allocated on the heap and referenced only by a stack-based local variable then the memory will be leaked in the event of a leave.
This happens because when you create a local pointer to a heap-based variable the pointer resides on the stack. When a leave occurs, the stack is restored to (a copy) of the stack frame as it was at the time the TRAP harness was first called. The heap object is orphaned – it still exists on the heap, but the stack pointer has been discarded. As the memory is unrecoverable, this is a memory leak.
The following code illustrates this:
void UnsafeL()
// Heap allocation.
CBook* book = new(ELeave) CBook();
book->InitializeL(); // Unsafe - book will be leaked if
// InitializeL() leaves
delete book;
The memory allocated on the heap to store the CBook object pointed to by book will become inaccessible if the call to InitializeL() leaves. The cleanup stack must be used to prevent this, as the next section explains.
Note that the argument above does not apply to member variables because the pointer to the member is maintained in the parent object rather than the stack. You should never put a member variable on the cleanup stack for the reasons discussed in the following section.
The Cleanup Stack
The previous section explained that a memory leak can occur if heap objects are accessible only through pointers local to the function that leaves. Let's look at this in terms of the Symbian C++ types that were discussed here.
- T class objects are leave safe – they generally do not contain any member data that requires explicit destruction; if they have a destructor defined, it gets called when the object goes out of scope (the nature of T class objects has changed as Symbian C++ has evolved, here and The Implications of Leaving in a Destructor for further details).
- C class objects, which are always created on the heap, are not leave safe if created as a local variable but are leave safe if created as a member variable of another class (which in turn, by definition, must be another C class).
- R class objects are similarly not leave safe if created as a local variable, since the resources they own must be freed in the event of a leave (through a call to the appropriate Close() or Release() function).
- M class objects may or may not be leave safe, depending on the type of class the interface has been mixed in to. To better understand this point, see the MPolygon example later.
One way to make objects leave safe is to place a TRAP (or TRAPD) macro around every potential leaving call. However, the use of TRAPs should be limited for reasons of efficiency, and to avoid clumsy code that constantly traps leaves and checks leave codes. In effect, code that uses multiple trap harnesses to catch every possible leave is simply reverting to the basic error-handling approach that leaves were designed to avoid. Instead, Symbian C++ provides a mechanism for storing pointers that are not leave safe, to ensure they are cleaned up in the event of a leave. This is called the cleanup stack. Each thread has its own cleanup stack and, as long as pointers are stored on it before calling code that may leave, the cleanup stack destroys them automatically. The cleanup stack is rather like a Symbian version of the standard C++ library's smart pointer, auto_ptr.
It isn't necessary to create a cleanup stack for a GUI application thread, since the application framework creates one. However, a cleanup stack must be created if writing a server, a simple console-test application or when creating an additional thread that contains code that uses the cleanup stack. This is done as follows:
CTrapCleanup* theCleanupStack = CTrapCleanup::New();
... // Code that uses the cleanup stack within a TRAP macro.
delete theCleanupStack;
Once created, the cleanup stack is accessed through the static member functions of class CleanupStack, defined in e32base.h:
class CleanupStack
IMPORT_C static void PushL(TAny* aPtr);
IMPORT_C static void PushL(CBase* aPtr);
IMPORT_C static void PushL(TCleanupItem anItem);
IMPORT_C static void Pop();
IMPORT_C static void Pop(TInt aCount);
IMPORT_C static void PopAndDestroy();
IMPORT_C static void PopAndDestroy(TInt aCount);
IMPORT_C static void Check(TAny* aExpectedItem);
inline static void Pop(TAny* aExpectedItem);
inline static void Pop(TInt aCount,TAny* aLastExpectedItem);
inline static void PopAndDestroy(TAny* aExpectedItem);
inline static void PopAndDestroy(TInt aCount,TAny* aLastExpectedItem);
Using the Cleanup Stack
The following code illustrates a leave-safe version of the function UnsafeL() discussed earlier:
void NowSafeL()
// Heap allocation.
CBook* book = new(ELeave) CBook();
// Push on to the cleanup stack.
book->InitializeL(); // Safe
// Pop from the cleanup stack.
delete book;
If InitializeL() leaves, the object pointed to by book is destroyed by the cleanup stack. If no leave occurs, the book pointer is popped from the cleanup stack and the object to which it points is deleted explicitly when finished with. This code could equally well be replaced by a call to CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(book) that pops the pointer and makes a call to the destructor in one step.
In the example above, you may have noticed that PushL() is a leaving function, which at first sight appears to be self-defeating. If the cleanup stack is supposed to make pointers leave safe, how can it potentially cause a leave when you use it and still be helpful? The reason PushL() may leave is that it may need to allocate memory to store the pointers passed to it (and in low-memory conditions this could fail). However, the object passed to PushL()will not be orphaned if it leaves. This is because, when the cleanup stack is created, it has at least one spare slot. When PushL() is called, the pointer is added to the next vacant slot and then, if there are no remaining slots available, the cleanup stack attempts to allocate some for future pushes – it is this allocation that may fail. If there is a failure, the pointer has already been added to the stack so its object can be cleaned up.
The cleanup stack is expanded four slots at a time for efficiency, and Pop() and PopAndDestroy() do not release the memory for slots once they have been allocated. This memory is available for future pushes on to the cleanup stack until the cleanup stack is destroyed.
In a function, if a pointer to an object is pushed on to the cleanup stack and remains on it when that function returns, the naming convention is to append a C to the function name. For example:
CBook* NowSafeLC()
// Heap allocation.
CBook* book = new(ELeave) CBook();
// Push on to the cleanup stack.
return (book);
This is used most frequently in static factory functions for C classes.
Ordering Calls to PushL() and Pop() or PopAndDestroy()
Pointers can be pushed on to and popped off the cleanup stack, but since it's a stack, for any series of pushes, the corresponding pops must occur in reverse order. It's a good idea to name the pointer as it is popped, so debug builds can check that it is the correct pointer and flag up any programming errors. For example:
void TestPhonesL()
{ // Each object is pushed on to the cleanup stack immediately
// it is allocated, in case the next allocation leaves.
CPhone* phoneA = CPhone::NewL(A);
CPhone* phoneB = CPhone::NewL(B);
CPhone* phoneC = CPhone::NewL(C);
CPhone* phoneD = CPhone::NewL(D);
... // Leaving functions called here.
// Various ways to remove the objects from the stack and delete them:
// (1) All with one anonymous call – OK
// CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(4);
// (2) Each object individually to verify the code logic
// Note the reverse order of Pop() to PushL().
// This is long-winded.
// CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(phoneD);
// CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(phoneC);
// CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(phoneB);
// CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(phoneA);
// (3) All at once, naming the last object. This is the best solution.
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(4, phoneA);
Using the Cleanup Stack with T, R and M Classes
As you can see from the definition of class CleanupStack given earlier, there are three overloads of the PushL() method. These determine how the item is destroyed when it is cleaned up when a leave occurs or a call is made to CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy().
IMPORT_C static void PushL(CBase* aPtr);
This overload takes a pointer to a CBase-derived object. On cleanup it is destroyed by invoking delete, thus calling the virtual destructor of the CBase-derived object.
IMPORT_C static void PushL(TAny* aPtr);
If the object pushed on to the cleanup stack is a pointer to an object that does not derive from CBase, this overload is invoked. On cleanup, the memory referenced by the pointer is simply deallocated by invoking User::Free() (delete is not called on it, so no destructor is invoked).
This overload of PushL() is called, for example, when pointers to heap-based T class objects are pushed on to the cleanup stack. If the T class has no member data that requires explicit de-allocation this is fine because there is no requirement for cleanup beyond de-allocation of the heap memory occupied by the T class. However, if the T class has a destructor that requires calling this overload of PushL() will not suffice, instead a TCleanupItem should be used.
IMPORT_C static void PushL(TCleanupItem anItem);
This overload takes an object of type TCleanupItem, which is designed to accommodate objects requiring customized cleanup processing. The TCleanupItem object encapsulates a pointer to the object to be stored on the cleanup stack and a pointer to a function to clean up that object (a local function or a static method of a class). A leave or a call to PopAndDestroy() removes the object from the cleanup stack and calls the associated cleanup function.
Symbian C++ also provides a set of template utility functions, each of which generates an object of type TCleanupItem and pushes it on to the cleanup stack:
- CleanupClosePushL() – the cleanup method calls Close() on the object in question. This utility method is usually used to make stack-based R class objects leave safe. For example:
void UseFilesystemL()
RFs theFs;
... // Call functions which may leave,
// theFs.Close() is called if a leave occurs.
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(&theFs); // Note the & is required
- CleanupReleasePushL() – the cleanup method calls Release() on the object in question. This method is typically used to push an object referenced through an M class (interface) pointer that provides a Release() method.
- CleanupDeletePushL() – the cleanup method calls delete on the pointer passed into the function. This is also typically used for passing M class pointers.
The following simplistic example illustrates the reason why this is needed (for those interested, a longer discussion can be found on our page about mixin inheritance and the cleanup stack.
A C class, CSquare, uses multiple inheritance from CBase and an M class interface, MPolygon. The object is instantiated and the M class interface pushed on to the cleanup stack. The object is later destroyed by a call to PopAndDestroy(). If the pushing was done with CleanupStack::PushL(), the PushL(TAny*) would be used because the pointer is not a CBase pointer. The PushL(TAny*) overload means that User::Free() is invoked on the pointer on cleanup, but this would result in a User 42 panic. That's because User::Free() can't find the heap information it needs to release the memory to the system when passed an M class pointer to the sub-object of a C class. Even if it could, the virtual destructor of CSquare would not be called, so the best-case scenario would be a memory leak! The solution is to use CleanupDeleteL() to call delete on the M class pointer and invoke the virtual destructor correctly for the CSquare class.
class MPolygon
virtual TInt CalculateNumberOfVerticesL() =0;
virtual ~MPolygon(){};
class CSquare : public CBase, public MPolygon
static CSquare* NewL();
virtual TInt CalculateNumberOfVerticesL();
virtual ~CSquare(){};
enum TPolygonType { ESquare };
static MPolygon* InstantiatePolygonL(TPolygonType aPolygon);
MPolygon* InstantiatePolygonL(TPolygonType aPolygon)
if (ESquare==aPolygon)
return (CSquare::NewL());
return (NULL);
/*static*/ CSquare* CSquare::NewL()
{ // No two-phase construct needed here.
CSquare* me = new(ELeave) CSquare();
return (me);
TInt CSquare::CalculateNumberOfVerticesL()
{ // Simple implementation, but others may leave.
return (4);
void DoStuffL()
MPolygon* square = InstantiatePolygonL(ESquare);
// ... Leaving calls go here.
- CleanupArrayDeletePushL() – this method is used to push a pointer to a heap-based C++ array of T class objects (or built-in types) on to the cleanup stack. When PopAndDestroy() is called, the memory allocated for the array is cleaned up using delete[]. No destructor is called on the elements of the array.
Member Variables and the Cleanup Stack
A class member variable (prefixed by i) should not be pushed on to the cleanup stack. The owning object destroys it when appropriate, so it does not need to be made leave safe through use of the cleanup stack.
Note that if you do add a member variable to the CleanupStack, there will be a panic in the event of a leave. This is because both the cleanup stack and the parent object will try and clean up the memory, resulting in a double deletion exception.
Mixing Leaves, Exceptions and the Cleanup Stack
Symbian C++ TRAPs and leaves are implemented internally in terms of C++ exceptions (a leave is an XLeaveException). A TRAP will panic if it catches any other kind of exception. This means that, if you are mixing C++ exceptions in with leaves and TRAPs, you must not throw an exception within a leaving function unless also you catch and handle it internally in that function.
A normal catch block will not manage the cleanup stack correctly either, so code that throws exceptions should not use the cleanup stack directly or indirectly. If you are calling leaving functions from exception-style code, do not use the cleanup stack, but make the calls as required and catch and handle any exceptions that arise.
Memory-Management Macros
Symbian OS provides a set of debug-only macros that can be added directly to code to check that memory is not leaked.
There are a number of macros available, but the most commonly used are defined as follows:
#define __UHEAP_MARK User::__DbgMarkStart(RHeap::EUser)
#define __UHEAP_MARKEND User::__DbgMarkEnd(RHeap::EUser,0)
The macros verify that the default user heap is consistent. The check starts after a call to __UHEAP_MARK and a later call to __UHEAP_MARKEND verifies that the heap is in the same state as at the start. If heap cells allocated in the interim have not been freed, a panic is raised to indicate a potential leak. The panic is ALLOC nnnnnnnn, where nnnnnnnn is a hexadecimal pointer to the heap cell in question.
The heap-checking macros can be nested used anywhere in code. They are not compiled into release builds so do not have any impact on the code size or speed of production code. Sometimes you may find that you get false positives where memory is allocated by the system and not freed within a MARK/MARKEND pair. A good example is the cleanup stack which is expanded to store pointer values where necessary, but when they are popped off, the allocated memory is retained and re-used later or destroyed when the cleanup stack is deleted.
In addition, an application must gracefully handle any out-of-memory leaves that occur when memory is not available for allocation. Symbian OS provides a set of macros to simulate heap failure, either on the next allocation, randomly or by allowing you to specify the number of allocations that can succeed before failure. These are extremely useful: for example, a test suite can call a function repeatedly, increasing the heap failure point by one, to check that each allocation fails gracefully. Please consult the Symbian Developer Library documentation for more information about __UHEAP_FAILNEXT and __UHEAP_SETFAIL for more information about how to use them.

It is important to avoid hazardous chemical pesticides when combating common household pests in your home and garden, since these pesticides can damage your health and the environment. As an alternative, make your own natural pesticides by using essential oils.
Citronella oil is commonly used for repelling most insects and pests, so you can make your own natural insect repellent using this oil. Other essential oils are also used for deterring pests effectively.
Natural insect repellent recipe:
- Citronella oil 20 drops
- Lavender oil 10 drops
- Tea tree oil 4 drops
- Pennyroyal oil 4 drop
- Jojoba oil 4 drops
Mix all the ingredients. You can use this mix in two ways; The first is by applying this mixture to your body after diluting in 100ml of almond oil. The second is by spraying this mixture after combining it with 100ml of vodka
The following are some natural ways to get rid of household pests using essential oils:
1. Citronella candles work efficiently for mosquitoes. You can place drops of citronella oil or lemon-grass oil in a glowing burner, or place a mixture of essential oils with drops of peppermint oil, lavender oil and lemongrass oil on a ribbon and hang it from windows to eliminate mosquitoes.
2. Sprinkle a few drops of peppermint oil along counters and walls to prevent ants coming into your home.
3. Scatter cedar-wood oil in wardrobes, drawers and cupboards to get rid of silver fish.
4. Make a mixture with few drops of citronella oil and peppermint oil and place the mixture on cotton balls. Keep them in your cupboards to eliminate cockroaches. A mixture of 1/2 cup of water, and a few drops of cypress oil and peppermint oil can be sprayed on areas where the cockroaches are active.
5. A mixture of peppermint oil and eucalyptus oil is effective in preventing mouse infestations. Dip cotton balls in this mixture and keep them in areas through which mice are entering home.
6. Sprinkle a few drops of clove oil and lavender oil in your home to repel flies.
7. Neem oil can be used as a natural repellent of aphids.
8. Spray a mixture made from one litre salt water, 10 drops of lavender oil, and rosemary oil to treat aphid affected plants.
Please note: Certain essential oils are harmful for pregnant women, so beware when using them.

I know this may seem bizarre coming from a website called "Green Drink Diaries," but as a mother of a diaper rash prone daughter, I feel called to share the wealth of knowledge on how to stop diaper rash forever, all with ingredients you can eat!
At our house we try to avoid hygiene products with chemicals as much as possible. So, when at 11 months old (when breastfeeding came to a screeching halt and solid foods became more common) my daughter started developing severe, bleeding, cracking diaper rash, I became OBSESSED with finding a natural cure that worked.
After visiting several different websites and reading through my "What to Expect When…." type books, I came up with a few contenders to start with. Many women said that tea tree oil worked well with killing yeast diaper rash, so I mixed it with some olive oil and slathered it all over my baby's bum for a few days only to see very little progress. It seemed every time she pooped it would start all over again and couldn't heal.
Perhaps I gave up too soon, but I began to emotionally plummet into the belief that perhaps natural remedies weren't strong enough for this horrible, bleeding rash. So, I ventured into the conventional products. I bought Boudreaux's Butt Paste, A&D Ointment, Desitin Thick and Creamy, and an Avalon Organics diaper cream. I had the same result. The rash would somewhat heal but then after a poop going unnoticed for more than 5 minutes, it would come right back around to its awful condition again.
Finally, after weeks of this it divinely hit me. Perhaps I needed to double or triple up on the natural approaches? And THAT is what worked!
The BEST natural diaper rash cure in the world is as follows:
1. Vinegar and Tea Tree Oil Bath: Add 1 cup of white vinegar and 1/4 Tbsp tea tree oil to 2-3 inches of bath water (in a full-sized bath tub). Make sure there is enough water to cover your baby's affected area. Try to keep baby in the tub to soak for 10-20 minutes if possible. Drain tub and wash baby with clean water. Towel dry baby and dry affected area well or with a blow dryer set on low to medium heat. Leave diaper off as long as possible after this to air area out. Leave diaper off as much as possible while treating diaper rash.
2. Coconut Oil Cream: Lather a thin layer of coconut oil on baby's bottom and then diaper with a clean, loose, diaper. Avoid using baby wipes at changes. I also found that we needed to go ahead and buy the next size diaper (we went from size 3 to 4) to allow for more air to flow through. I believe this also contributed to my daughter's bum healing. If you cloth diaper, make sure that you follow yeast cleansing protocols for your diapers.
3. Grapefruit Seed Extract Daily Spray: After the baby is healed, mix 15 drops grapefruit seed extract with 2 oz of water and add to a spray or spritzer bottle. Spray 3 squirts on baby after each diaper change. Once the rash is healed this will help keep yeast away. I still spray this on my daughter daily, especially when I see redness starting.
I only know this protocol from personal experience. Please follow all three steps for 3-4 days or until rash is gone. All of the listed products can be purchased at your local health foods store. Chronic diaper rash can also be a sign of a food allergy. If your child's diaper rash worsens, please consult with your physician.
