title: getdate() not working with Entity Framework
body: <p>So I have a column named <code>Timestamp</code> in my database with a default value of <code>GetDate()</code>.  </p>
  
  <p>Whenever I use Entity Framework to insert a record, <code>Timestamp</code> is <code>null</code>.</p>
  
  <p>Why is this the case?</p>
