I created a file called config/initializers/task_scheduler.rb which
looks like this:

scheduler = Rufus::Scheduler::PlainScheduler.start_new

scheduler.every "7m" do
sweep_for_reports
#puts "#{Time.now.to_s(:db)} -- Swept for reports."
end

scheduler.cron '22 1 * * *' do
gather_event_data
puts "#{Time.now.to_s(:db)} -- Gathered data."
end

An easier way to write your schedule, probably, is to use cron-style.
4AM every day would be like this (this, mind you, is a matter of
preference!):

scheduler.cron '0 4 * * *' do
send_emails :to => these_guys :about => that
end
