++first_or_create+ returns either the record that already exists or the new record. In our case, we didn't already have a client named Andy so the record is created and returned.
The new record might not be saved to the database; that depends on whether validations passed or not (just like +create+).

In the example above we didn't explicitly pass a +:first_name => 'Andy'+ argument to +first_or_create+.

That's it. The News views will use the new layout, hiding the top menu and adding a new right menu inside the "content" div.
There are several ways of getting similar results with different sub-templating schemes using this technique. Note that there is no limit in nesting levels. One can use the +ActionView::render+ method via +render :template => 'layouts/news'+ to base a new layout on the News layout. If you are sure you will not subtemplate the +News+ layout, you can replace the +content_for?(:news_content) ? yield(:news_content) : yield+ with simply +yield+.

Validations such as +validates :foreign_key, :uniqueness => true+ are one way in which models can enforce data integrity. The +:dependent+ option on associations allows models to automatically destroy child objects when the parent is destroyed. Like anything which operates at the application level these cannot guarantee referential integrity and so some people augment them with foreign key constraints.
Although Active Record does not provide any tools for working directly with such features, the +execute+ method can be used to execute arbitrary SQL. There are also a number of plugins such as "foreign_key_migrations":https://github.com/harukizaemon/redhillonrails/tree/master/foreign_key_migrations/ which add foreign key support to Active Record (including support for dumping foreign keys in +db/schema.rb+).
