The origins of Daylight Saving Time

The idea of daylight saving time is said to have been started back in the Ancient Civilizations as they adjusted their daily schedules to the sun. Typically the day was divided into 12 hours regardless of day length which would ensure the daylight hour was longer during the summer months.

Benjamin Franklin took this idea one step further while on an American envoy to France. He published an anonymous letter that suggested that the people of Paris reduce the usage of candles by rising…

This time of year serves as a reminder that a drop in tire inflation pressures corresponds with the falling thermometer readings. Air pressure in a tire typically goes down 1-2 pounds for every 10 degrees of temperature change.

Odds are that you haven’t checked your tire pressure since the weather began turning cooler. If the…
