title: Is Mysql now() timestamp pickups from server time
body: <p>Does MySQL have its own timestamp or use the system timestamp, because I see a dependency in the timings:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><p><code>date</code> command on unix server</p></li>
  <li><p><code>select now()</code> command on MySQL server</p></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>These two show different times.</p>
