<p>Yousoundperfect: </p> <hr /> <div>The '''Boland Amendment''' was an amendment to the Defense Appropriation Act of 1983, proposed by [[Edward Boland]], a [[Democrat]] from [[Massachusetts]]. This amendment prohibited the US government from providing funds to the [[Contras]] to overthrow the Sandinista government of [[Nicaragua]].<br /> <br /> The discovery that the Contras were armed by the proceeds of [[weapons]] sales to [[Iran]] by [[Israel]] triggered the [[Iran-Contra Affair]].<br /> <br /> [[Category:United States Law]]</div>

<p>Yousoundperfect: </p> <hr /> <div>[[Image:Lorentz.jpg|right|thumb]]<br /> '''Hendrik Lorentz''' (1853-1928) was a renowned [[Netherlands|Dutch]] physicist who, in addition to [[Henri Poincaré]], developed a mathematical [[theory of relativity]]. <br /> <br /> Lorentz's first achievement was in his doctoral thesis when he refined [[James Maxwell|Maxwell]]'s electromagnetic theory in his doctoral thesis. In 1878, he became professor of mathematical [[physics]] at Leiden University. Later he moved to the Teyler Institute, Harlem. <br /> <br /> The existence of [[electron]]s had not yet been proven, but Lorentz proposed that [[light]] waves resulted from oscillations of an atomic electric charge. In 1902, Lorentz received the [[Nobel Prize]] along with his student for developing a mathematical theory of the electron. <br /> <br /> Lorentz's most famous work is the Lorentz contraction for an object traveling at relativistic speeds, which he introduced in 1904.&lt;ref&gt;http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Biographies/Lorentz.html&lt;/ref&gt; This predicts that mass will increase and shorten its length at speeds approaching the [[speed of light]], and that time dilation of such a body occurs. <br /> <br /> Lorentz always hoped that [[quantum theory]] could be described by classical mechanics.<br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> &lt;references/&gt;<br /> <br /> {{DEFAULTSORT:Lorentz, Hendrik}}<br /> [[Category:Nobel laureates in Physics]]<br /> [[Category:Physicists]]</div>
