Answer to Question 1

Sentencing is the formal pronouncement of punishment following conviction in a
criminal prosecution. Sentences are imposed by a judge, but some jurisdictions allow
jury sentencing. No punishment is imposed without authorization by state law or
practice, and sentences must not violate due process, which means fundamental
fairness.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
