Add an interceptor that passes the users current offset from UTC
 to any POST/PUT to conferences.
 - this is used to help make sure the proper times show up with respect to timezones
 - the difference/delta b/w the user's timezone and the timezone the user selected for the time is applied to the saved time.
use moment's parseZone function to read the timestamp with timezone
 and display it appropriately in any client in any timezone
