title: Insert a time stamp into database via ContentValues
body: <p>In Android, is it possible to insert a time stamp into a database using <code>ContentValues</code>? When I try to add it using something like this: </p>
  
  <pre><code>ContentValues args = new ContentValues();       
  args.put(MY_DATE, my_date);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get an error telling me that <code>my_date</code> needs to be a <code>String</code>. Any suggestions on how to achieve this?</p>
