When did daylights savings start in the US?
Well we've been changing our clocks forwards and backwards in the UK since 1916. It's all to do with saving the hours of daylight, and was started by a man called William Willett, a London builder, who lived in Petts Wood in Kent (near our school).
William Willett first proposed the idea of British Summer Time in 1907 in a pamphlet entitled 'The Waste of Daylight'. Willett had noticed that the summer mornings light was wasted while people slept, and that the time would be better utilised in the afternoon by putting the clocks forward. After campaigning for years the British Government finally adopted the system a year after Willett's death.

What is 0350 CEST in United Kingdom time?
Most cat owners know that cats are not fans of variety--paradise to a cat involves predictable days of repetition. That preference includes eating the same food each day. Sometimes, though, it becomes necessary to switch your cat to a new food, whether for economic or other reasons. Your cat should accept this, if you make the change in a slow and gradual manner.
Step 1: Choose a new food that’s as similar as possible to the old one. If you need to switch to a less expensive brand, choose one that’s close to the same texture and flavor. If you need to change from hard to soft food, stay in the same brand and flavor family.
Step 2: Replace about a quarter of your cat’s old food with the new food. Do this at each meal. If the new food is the same texture as the old, you can simply mix the new and old together. If you’re changing from one texture to another, put a small amount of the new food in your cat’s dish beside a smaller-than-normal amount of the old food. Do this for about three days.
Step 3: Assuming your cat is accepting the new food, increase the amount so that you’re giving him half and half new food and old food. Do this for about three days. If your cat is still struggling to accept the new food, don’t increase the amount until he is.
Step 4: Change the amounts again so that about one-quarter of your cat’s food is the old variety and three-quarters of it is the new. Again, do this for three days.
Step 5: Eliminate the old food from your cat’s diet. After this gradual approach, he should be willing to accept the new food.
Be sure to watch your cat closely throughout this process for any changes. If your cat starts experiencing diarrhea or vomiting, stop giving him the new food and consult your veterinarian. Your cat could also express him displeasure about the new food through behavioral changes. If he starts scratching furniture or stops using his litter box, you should ask your vet for advice.
Does daylight saving produce productivity?
Studies have shown mixed results regarding the productivity impact of daylight saving time. Some research suggests that the extra daylight can lead to increased productivity due to improved mood and energy levels. However, other studies indicate that disruptions to sleep patterns from the time change can negatively affect productivity in the days following the switch.
Are there any countries that daylight time never varies?

When pilots are given a clearance to cross a fix or leave an altitude at a certain time, especially when outside of radar coverage, such as over the North Atlantic or Pacific, the pilot can take comfort in knowing that air traffic control and, indeed, every airborne flight all over the entire world is using the same exact time reference to the second. If they did not, planes would crash into each other with great regularity due to fact the one was using a different time than another.
The railroads learned this the hard way in the 19th century. Before the advent of standardized time, each railroad company kept their own time, usually based on the local time of the railroad company headquarters. Many switch operators had to keep track of as many as seven different times. This caused a great deal of confusion and trains frequently ended up on the same track in opposite directions resulting in many horrific accidents.
