Did any Nazis ever oppose the Nuremberg Laws? Futurist110 ( talk) 01:53, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
I don't know an answer to your concrete question. However there were individuals loyal to the Nazi regime who did protest against the violence against Jews at one occasion or another, however hardly ever in a way having any consequences, other than (harsh or mild ones) against themselves. An example is Henriette von Schirach. -- KnightMove ( talk) 13:00, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
Johannes Blaskowitz was a WW2 German general who actively disliked atrocities unrelated to military necessity, and reported them up the chain of command early in the war (but he was not a Nazi party member). AnonMoos ( talk) 04:35, 11 May 2019 (UTC)
I was looking for a map of New Jersey with a rough ZIP code overview, be it only the 07xxx and the 08xxx parts distinguished in color, or somewhat more detailed with one more digit (compare that map of Austria). After some search it seems that such a map does not exist on the web... or where can I find it? What about other US states? -- KnightMove ( talk) 12:52, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
There is or was a file you could download from usps.com that was a list of all the zip codes, with the names of the towns and the geographic coordinates. Someone must have already turned that into a map. 67.164.113.165 ( talk) 23:09, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
I don't have the impression the OP wants a map showing the individual ZIP Codes, but the state broken down by which area takes 070XX ZIP Codes, 074, 076, etc, which is usually a cohesive area that sends outgoing mail to a regional center called a Sectional Center Facility, or at least did back in the day. That is why I recommended the Postal Directory, which has such maps for each state.-- Wehwalt ( talk) 15:01, 12 May 2019 (UTC)
It is somewhat common, relatively speaking, to see a U.S. Representative run for -- and win -- a U.S. Senate seat. However, it seems rather rare to see the opposite, a Senator who wants to become a Representative. (1) What are the reasons for this? (2) Are there any data or statistics for these things? (3) Does Wikipedia have any pertinent articles? I am only referring to the United States. My question concerns the federal-level offices, but info on state-level offices would also be interesting. Thanks. Joseph A. Spadaro ( talk) 19:23, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
Jerry Brown went from being governor of California to mayor of Oakland, California. He later became governor again, some decades after his first stint as governor. 67.164.113.165 ( talk) 23:11, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
Thanks, all. Joseph A. Spadaro ( talk) 03:06, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
