Westward expansion was an inevitable and positive process.. Westward expansion was immoral and unfair because of the way it affected Native Americans.. Westward expansion was a process of its time and cannot be judged by modern standards.. U1C2 Forming a New Nation 1763-1815 U.S. History Main Idea After the war broke out between Great Britain and the American colonies, the Patriots relied on their passion, strong leaders, and foreign allies to achieve victory. The work of defining the government of the new nation, however, was more difficult and would eventually lead to the emergence of political parties. Melody Buckner, MS. University of Arizona.

From its beginnings in the 1920s until its demise in the 1980s, Bell Labs-officially, the research and development wing of AT&T-was the biggest, and arguably the best, laboratory for new ideas in the world. From the transistor to the laser, from digital communications to cellular telephony, it\'s hard to find an aspect of modern life that hasn\'t been touched by Bell Labs.In The Idea Factory, Jon Gertner traces the origins of some of the twentieth century\'s most important inventions and delivers a riveting and heretofore untold chapter of American history. At its heart this is a story about the life and work of a small group of brilliant and eccentric men-Mervin Kelly, Bill Shockley, Claude Shannon, John Pierce, and Bill Baker-who spent their careers at Bell Labs.Today, when the drive to invent has become a mantra, Bell Labs offers us a way to enrich our understanding of the challenges and solutions to technological innovation. Here, after all, was where the foundational ideas on the management of innovation were born. Slide . 1. Project: IEEE P802.15 Working Group for Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPANs).
