Everyone who uses time benefited from the use of standardized time and time zones, for one could save himself or herself the trouble by knowing when they should do what they have to do at a particular time mostly when crossing to different zones, for example they now got to know how long it could take them to reach some where and at what time they could get to that place counting in the time of the end point or zone, this made appointments much easier and planning better and timely increasing time management opportunity. For example not to get late when going some where for an important meeting some one had to do some math according to their destination time frame or standard time zone which was guess work before the standardization of time and time zones.
Indiana has two time zones - Central Time and Eastern Time. Most of the Indiana counties use Eastern Time. Some counties near the southwestern and northwestern border of the state use Central Time.
Try not to abbreviate. If you must, starting with the left of the name, remove vowels from each word in the name except for the first vowel of each word. If the name is still too long, use standardized shorthand indicators. Record this standard for consistent use.

Meridian lines can be used to measure time zones. They split Earth into different time zones.
Time zones were in use decades before 1883. Iceland's started in 1837, and the U.K. started in 1847. 1883 was when the United States adopted them, and as much as this information is going to break your heart, I have to tell you anyway: we are not the center of the universe. Before time was standardized into zones, each city kept its own time. As the railroads and the telegraph made transportation and communication faster, it became more and more difficult to handle all the different times. It's confusing enough with about 40 time zones around the world; imagine when there were thousands!
The Chass Port of Call clock is a popular attractive design which allows the setting of multiple time zones for display at the same time.

Yes, every country in the whole world uses time zones. But some countries are in only one time zone, like Greece
Standardized time zones were used in the US to improve coordination and efficiency in industries such as transportation and communication. Prior to the implementation of time zones, each city and town used its own local time. This proved problematic with the expansion of railroads and telegraphs, as schedules and communications became increasingly difficult to manage. Standardized time zones helped to synchronize operations across the country.
Standard time zones were not yet in use at the time the Bible was first written.

The earth is divided into 40 formal time zones, not 24 as might commonly be expected. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_time_zones for a complete list. Note that the number of time zones also varies with the season as some regions adopt daylight savings time (DST) while others (in the same time zone) choose not to use DST. This can lead to a seasonal increase or decrease in the total number of time zones. According to PHC there are 24 Major time zones
