#
# The first_name attribute must be in the object and it cannot be blank.
#
# If you want to validate the presence of a boolean field (where the real values
# are true and false), you will want to use
# validates_inclusion_of :field_name, :in => [true, false].
#
# This is due to the way Object#blank? handles boolean values:
# false.blank? # => true.
#
# Configuration options:
# * :message - A custom error message (default is: "can't be blank").
# * :on - Specifies when this validation is active. Runs in all
# validation contexts by default (+nil+), other options are :create
# and :update.
# * :if - Specifies a method, proc or string to call to determine if
# the validation should occur (e.g. :if => :allow_validation, or
# :if => Proc.new { |user| user.signup_step > 2 }). The method, proc
# or string should return or evaluate to a true or false value.
# * :unless - Specifies a method, proc or string to call to determine
# if the validation should not occur (e.g. :unless => :skip_validation,
# or :unless => Proc.new { |user| user.signup_step <= 2 }). The method,
# proc or string should return or evaluate to a true or false value.
# * :strict - Specifies whether validation should be strict.
# See ActiveModel::Validation#validates! for more information.
