title: Rails 4 - Want To Have Rails Use My Local Time Zone for created_at & updated_at
body: <p>Is there actually a way to have Rails add/update rows with created_at and update_at using the current time zone as set on my server?</p>
  
  <p>I have seen many Stack Overflow solutions where people stated how to display it on a Rails view with a selected time zone.  </p>
  
  <p>I have also found other Stack Overflow solutions stating that it should take the time zone from my server and update created_at and updated_at.  This is not true at least for the Mac Mini Server I'm running on.  I have it set to my local time zone.  I also have <code>config.time_zone = 'Central Time (US &amp; Canada)'</code> set in config/application.rb.</p>
  
  <p>I want to be able to look at the raw database data in pgAdmin3 or some kind of database backup and know when records have been created in my time zone.</p>
  
  <p>Any help would be appreciated.  I will keep looking.</p>
