The El Cortez Hotel in San Diego has been recognized by numerous architects and engineers as a pioneer in design. Indeed, it has set trends in various ways, but there’s more to its story. During its heyday, it was regarded as one of the nation’s most sophisticated hotels, becoming a preferred destination. Guests chose it not just for San Diego’s attractions, but for the experience of staying at the hotel itself. Eventually, its fame and the resulting high occupancy led the management to conclude that the hotel’s single elevator was inadequate.

Remembering Nikola Tesla on His Birthday 10th July
It's birthday of the Genius who invented 20th century, #NikolaTesla, the father of Modern Electricity --
Tesla was a #mysterious man who could see far into the #future. Although deprivileged, he died with a passion for science that changed the 20th century. Still, only a few years ago, the world started to appreciate what he did for mankind. But he wouldn’t mind it 

A Full Article:-
Tesla was born in what is now Croatia on a summer night in 1856, during what he claimed was a #lightning_storm – which led the midwife to say, “He will be a child of the storm,” and his mother to counter prophetically, “No, of the light.”
He discovered and patented the #rotating_magnetic_field, the basis of most alternating-current machinery. He also developed the three-phase system of electric power transmission. In 1891 he invented the Tesla #coil, an induction coil widely used in radio, TV & in other technologies.

ONE YEAR AFTER SHE CALLED ME AN IDIOT...
By.Dr Olanike Busari
She asked a question in a general group on WhatsApp.
I responded to the question professionally.
She tagged my response and typed: "you're an idiot"
I replied: "Thanks so much, now that you point my attention to this idiotic part of me, I'll surely work on it, God bless you my dear..."
And the whole place shook. Over 118 people commented and were so surprised by my response. Of course she was terribly bashed to the extent that she left the group.
