all my date ties are stored with the standard :db format and being in
western Europe,  I have an UTC offset +1

> Time.now.at_beginning_of_day
 => 2012-02-07 00:00:00 +0100

I'ld like to know if I am right ( or wrong) in my date time based
queries  like :

  scope :today, lambda {
    where("created_at >= ? AND created_at < ? ",
Time.now.at_beginning_of_day, Time.now.tomorrow.at_beginning_of_day)
  }

which generates:
SELECT `event_logs`.* FROM `event_logs` WHERE (created_at >=
'2012-02-06 23:00:00' AND < '2012-02-07 23:00:00' )

--------------
OR should I use the Time.now.utc to cope with the :db format ?

  scope :today, lambda {
    where("created_at >= ? AND created_at < ? ",
Time.now.utc.at_beginning_of_day,
Time.now.utc.tomorrow.at_beginning_of_day)
  }
which generates:
SELECT `event_logs`.* FROM `event_logs` WHERE (created_at >=
'2012-02-07 00:00:00' AND created_at < '2012-02-08 00:00:00' )

my guess is the 2nd scope , but I am not sure

thanks for your feedback
