        Install complete! See the README on Github for instructions on getting your
        app running with Authority.

        One note: each model needs to know the name of its its authorizer class. 
        You can specify that in the model like `authorizer_name FooAuthorizer`.
        If you don't, the `Article` model (for example) will look for `ArticleAuthorizer`.

        To generate one authorizer like that for each of your models, see
        `rails g authority:authorizers`. If you also want to specify your own
        parent class for them, use `rails g authority:authorizers MyClass`.
