There are many transactions in our project. In some methods I need to  
know was transaction success or not . Also I want to catch exceptions  
like ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid in one place and not propagate them on  
to higher levels of application. How can I done this? I write this  
code: [http://pastie.org/684694](http://pastie.org/684694). May be there is another better way to do  
this.
