Answer:

The astrolabe was an instrument that had great developments in the Islamic world during the year 800 and was introduced in Europe through Islamic Spain in the early 12th century.

It serves to solve problems related to the  position of the Sun and the stars in the sky. In the Muslim world they often used it also to calculate the prayer schedule and locate the direction of Mecca.

With the help of astrolabs, compasses, quadrants and diopters, the so-called "astronomical tables" were built, in which the positions and movement of the celestial bodies were found.

The astrolabe also allowed Muslim astronomers to study the solar spheres and to propose planetary models to explain the phenomenon of trepidation.

Why did Himmler opt to march prisoners out of the camps, rather than simply liquidating the camps as had occurred during Operati
kati45 [8]

Himmler wanted to extend the Nazi rule throughout places and so he decides to bring about the idea of the death march of prisoners rather than liquidating the camps

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The Reinhard Operation was the code name to the secretive operation that was carried on by the Germans to exterminate Poland's Jews from the general government district of Poland which was occupied by the Germans.
  • About two million Jews were sent to Belzec, Treblinka, and Sobibor.
  • In the summer of 1944, the massive soviet union annihilated the German army group center.
  • Soviet union overran Nazi concentration camps Lublin/Majdanek.
  • Heinrich Himmler ordered the prisoners in all camps to be forcibly evacuated to the Reich. he evacuated the prisoner this way due to these purposes.
  1. The SS chief Himmler did not want the prisoners to reach the hands of the enemy as they would say stories to allied and soviet liberators.
  2. they thought it was the prisoner's responsibility to maintain armaments wherever possible.
  3. Himmler wanted to use these  Jewish prisoners as hostages and wanted to negotiate peace using them in the west that would confirm the survival of Nazi rule

Judges have received a series of cost of living adjustment (COLA) denials over the past few decades, affecting their salaries.
iVinArrow [24]

The statement is TRUE.

The Ethics Reform Act of 1989, guaranteed automatic cost of living adjusments (known as "COLAs") to protect the salaries of judges against inflation. This also applied to other areas of federal employment.  Pay raises, however, could be denied if the President declared national emergency or some serious economic crisis were to generate a collapse.

Despite these promises, Congress refused on several occasions throughout the past decades to raise judges' salaries, even on occasions where other federal employees were benefited by COLAs.

This led to a series of court fights that culminated with the authority given to Congress to take away promised pay raises from judges any time before they'd taken formal effect. What this means is that the Constitution will only protect judges’ pay that has been “due and payable". The review of this ruling was denied by the Supreme Court for several years.  However, Congress did end up voting to allow an increment of pay for judges later on (but not in 2007 or 2010, to cite some more examples of recent denials).


Hope this helps!
