ActiveSupport has a beginning_of_day method which is basically 
equivalent to that

This approach fails will fail if daylight saving changes in between 
midnight and the object on which you are calling begin_of_day. For 
example in the UK on the 29th of october midday is 13 hours after the 
previous midnight.
