It's Time to Fall Back

Daylight saving time ends at 2 a.m. Sunday, so don't forget to set your clocks back before you go to bed. (If it's 10 p.m., you need to set it to 9 p.m.)

Also, don't forget the clocks on your computers, DVD players, microwaves, phones and ovens, or assume they automatically reset themselves.

The return to standard time, while it makes days seem shorter with earlier sunsets, can be a healthy change, according to an ABC report. 

The circadian rhythm, the body's natural clock, runs slightly longer than 24 hours, making it easier to adjust to standard time. The body doesn't ever quite adjust to the social change, the report says. 

The extra hour of sleep also "resets" the body, according to the report.

If you don't understand the point of daylight saving time, you're not alone: According to a Rasmussen Report, more than 45 percent of people don't think the benefits are worth the trouble. 

And 27 percent of people in the survey said they had arrived somewhere early or late because of daylight saving time.

Some sunny American places don't bother with springing forward and falling back. Those include Arizona, Hawaii, American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, according to Fox.
