title: Set default region in boto config
body: <p>I am trying to set a default region for AWS web services, specifically dynamodb. This is my boto config</p>
  
  <p><strong>.boto</strong></p>
  
  <pre><code>[Credentials]
  aws_access_key_id = KEY
  aws_secret_access_key = SECRET
  [Boto]
  autoscale_region_name = us-west-2
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I create table without using connection parameter, then the table is created in us-east-1 rather than us-west-2. </p>
  
  <pre><code>def create_table_ratings():
      '''
      Schema definition of table ratings
      '''
      ratings = Table.create('ratings', schema=[
          HashKey('user_id', data_type=NUMBER),
          RangeKey('photo_id', data_type=NUMBER)
      ], throughput={
          'read': 5,
          'write': 15,
      })
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What is the correct way to do it?</p>
