Here is part of my User class:

  has_many :permissions
  has_many :roles, :through => :permissions

This works very well, and I have a handy convenience method:

  def has_role?(name)
    self.roles.find_by_name(name) ? true : false
  end


However, I'm trying to figure out how to search the RoR way based on the
role and some other criteria.  For example, if I want to search for all
users whose first name is Bob and have a role 'admin', what would I type
in the conditions part of the query to filter by role?  I know that with
a User.find... query, I can no longer use the "self" keyword to call an
instance method.

Thanks for any help...
