I need before_create because I want to do some preprocessing everytime i 
save my 'Simple' state in the DB. For example, authentication, logging 
or similar stuff I will perform just before 'save'(this might raise 
another question, is this right approach? but this can be a separate 
discussion). I thought of passing the value in the callback method 
itself but now I am able to do it through attr_accessor. Thanks Leo for 
the suggestion :)
