Lars Francke updated HIVE-649:
------------------------------
    Attachment: HIVE-649.2.patch

I've taken the liberty to work on this a bit but I'm not too confident.

* I'm returning a TIMESTAMP instead of a String
* I'm assigning NOW in the constructor
** UDF instances will still be started at different times so now() won't be 
consistent. I'm not sure if I could get a better timestamp of when the job 
started using a GenericUDF

> [UDF] now() for getting current time
