when they change again!

You can use Timetool. As I remember you need to be root to do it. You
can also set the hardware clock in the BIOS.

Is this a Windows dual boot machine? If so there is an extra wrinkle,
Windows resets the hardware clock when the time changes while Linux
will just add an hour to the hardware time but leaves it on UTC. If
the machine dual boots then Windows will muck things up the first
time you use it after the clock changes (unless you turn off this
feature).

Make your choice, you're going to end up paying for it anyway.
