Edward Orange Wildman Whitehouse (1 October 1816 – 26 January 1890) was an English surgeon by profession and an electrical experimenter by avocation.
 He was recruited by entrepreneur Cyrus West Field as Chief Electrician to work on the pioneering endeavour to lay the first transatlantic telegraph cable for the Atlantic Telegraph Company between western Ireland to eastern Newfoundland.
 This pioneering project of the Victoria era began in 1854 and was completed in 1858, however the cable functioned for only three weeks.
 While Whitehouse sent the first telegraph communications in 16 August 1858 to the United States of America, he was ultimately held responsible for the undersea cable failure after he applied higher voltages in an effort to boost declining signals.

Kimiya-yi Sa'ādat (Persian: کیمیای سعادت‎ ‎ , English: The Alchemy of Happiness ) was written by Abū Ḥāmid Muḥammad ibn Muḥammad al-Ghazālī, a Persian theologian, philosopher, and prolific Sunni Muslim author regarded as one of the greatest systematic thinkers of Islam.
 The Kimiya-yi Sa'ādat was written towards the end of his life shortly before 499/1105.
 During the time before it was written the Muslim world was considered to be in a state of political as well as intellectual unrest.
 Al-Ghazālī, noted that there were constant disputes regarding the role of philosophy and scholastic theology, and that Sufis became chastised for their neglect of the ritual obligations of Islam.
 Upon its release, the Kimiya-yi sa'ādat allowed al-Ghazali to considerably reduce the tensions between the scholars and mystics.
 Kimiya-yi sa'ādat emphasized the importance of observing the ritual requirements of Islam, the actions that would lead to salvation, and avoidance of sin.
 The factor that set the Kimiya-yi sa'ādat apart from other theological works at the time was its mystical emphasis on self-discipline and asceticism.

Maritime archaeology (also known as marine archaeology) is a discipline within archaeology as a whole that specifically studies human interaction with the sea, lakes and rivers through the study of associated physical remains, be they vessels, shore side facilities, port-related structures, cargoes, human remains and submerged landscapes.
 A specialty within maritime archaeology is nautical archaeology, which studies vessel construction and use.
 As with archaeology as a whole, maritime archaeology can be practised within the historical, industrial, or prehistoric periods.
 An associated discipline, and again one that lies within archaeology itself, is underwater archaeology, which studies the past through any submerged remains be they of maritime interest or not.
 An example from the prehistoric era would be the remains of submerged settlements or deposits now lying under water despite having been dry land when sea levels were lower.
 The study of submerged aircraft lost in lakes, rivers or in the sea is an example from the historical, industrial or modern era.
 Many specialist sub-disciplines within the broader maritime and underwater archaeological categories have emerged in recent years.

The 1989–90 NBA season was the Nuggets' 14th season in the National Basketball Association, and 23rd season as a franchise.
 The Nuggets got off to a fast start winning 11 of their first 15 games, on their way to a solid 19–9 start.
 However, they began to show their age as they barely made the playoffs with a mediocre record of 43–39, fourth in the Midwest Division.
 At midseason, the team acquired Joe Barry Carroll from the New Jersey Nets, while Fat Lever was selected for the 1990 NBA All-Star Game.
 In the first round of the playoffs, the Nuggets were swept by the San Antonio Spurs in three straight games.
 Following the season, an era would come to an end in Denver as head coach Doug Moe was fired, Alex English signed as a free agent with the Dallas Mavericks, while Lever was traded to the Mavericks and Barry Carroll was released.
Laurentius Suslyga or Laurence Suslyga ("Polish": Wawrzyniec Suslyga) (1570–1640), was a Polish Jesuit historian, chronologist, and an author of Baroque visual poetry.
 He was the first person to claim that Jesus Christ was born in or before 4 BC, not in AD 1, as the Christian era would imply.
 Suslyga was thus questioning the Anno Domini chronology introduced by Dionysius Exiguus in AD 525.
 Suslyga presented this theory in his 1605 doctoral thesis entitled "Theoremata de anno ortus et mortis Domini, deque universa Jesu Christi in carne oeconomia" at the University of Graz.
 Among other arguments, Suslyga's treatise included the following: Herod's son, Philip the Tetrarch, renamed a city (Bethsaida) after Augustus's biological daughter, Julia.
 Since she had been exiled from Rome by Augustus in 2 BC, Suslyga assumed that Philip must have renamed the city prior to that date, and Herod must have died prior to Philip's becoming a ruler, which pushes the Massacre of the Innocents at least 3, if not more, years before AD 1.
 Dionysius Exiguus' chronology did need to be questioned; his chronology did not even match the point of view of the early Christians.
 The Church Fathers generally believed that Jesus was born either in the 41st or 42nd year of the reign of Augustus (consulship, principate, etc.), that is in 3 or 2 BC.
Alethea is an English language female first name derived from the ancient and modern Greek feminine noun "αλήθεια" (pronounced "al-ee-thia"), meaning "truth".
 It is thus an equivalent of the name Verity, from the Latin feminine noun "veritas", "truth".
 As an English first name it is frequently pronounced in modern times in an Anglicised form as "Ala-thee-a" .
 The name dates from the 16th century, as given in 1585 to Alethea Talbot (1585–1654), the youngest daughter of Gilbert Talbot, 7th Earl of Shrewsbury and later Countess of Arundel following her marriage to Thomas Howard, 21st Earl of Arundel.
 The name as used for the daughter of a wealthy nobleman in the Renaissance era in England would certainly have been pronounced "Al-ee-thia", that is as an Ancient Greek word, as the father would have received a thorough education in Ancient Greek and Latin and would thus be aware of the correct pronunciation.
 Women named Alethea include:
