Power of wrapers in Softwares

In order to get the complete control of undergoing process in any software application, wrappers plays a vital role.Most of the big framework like Spring, Hibernate and Jdbc have this kind of wrappers.In general you can say wrappers are the outer layer of the main object.In Spring security(Formly known as acegi security) we have request wrappers through this request wrapper acegi security decides that each incomming request has authenticate header or not?
How Spring security framework does this ? this is a very simple process. Each and every HttpRequest has to pass some filters configured on some external xml files. These filters inject some information in Httprequest headers, and instead of using the main Request facade spring security uses the wrappers of the request and application will not operate untill and unless request contains the authentication tokens, In this way wrappers are providing security through out the Lifecycle of Request.
A part of the web application there are some wrappers are also available for Jdbc, Log4Jdbc is a project which is hosted in google,which provides the  complete log of queries executed by the native Jdbc driver. The idea behind this is also same, Yes you guessed right it is Wrapers .
The main funda is instead of modifing the functionality of main  component make wrapper of the it, leave the extension points for plugging the wrappers object. Let it be seprate and independent.

Suppose i want to store all the messages from one of my friend say A in a folder called Personal, my existing mobile device Nokai E71 doesn't have this feature inbuilt (Ofcourse if you want you can make a folder and move the messages manually but here i am talking about the idea of automating this procedure). Only thing we need to do is , we have to store the rules in separate location , rules will be defined by the user and then device will follow these rules.There are no or very less software available which satisfy this requirement for mobile device.this is so simple but basic requirement as per the end user. I am going to make this one ...

Interview : Shiv Khera

Winning as a way of life Shiv Khera, motivational expert, speaker, consultant and author of three best-selling books, does not necessarily speak about new things. His subject is human life – the individual vis-à-vis society, and how the two can win. But it is the use of the right word at the right time in the right context in simple, evocative terms that sets him apart. Rajeev Nair met him in Dubai Charged – that is one word to describe the infectious persona of Shiv Khera, the motivational expert, hot in demand in the US professional circles to turn around company fortunes and develop the man power base. The Indian has been a US-resident for nearly three decades but hasn’t relinquished his Indian citizenship; he even contested the general elections from Delhi.
