<span>George Westinghouse Jr. was an American entrepreneur and engineer based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania who invented the railway air brake and was a pioneer of the electrical industry, gaining his first patent at the age of 19. Westinghouse saw the potential in alternating current as an electricity distribution system in the early 1880s and put all his resources into developing and marketing it, a move that put his business in direct competition with the Edison direct current system. In 1911 Westinghouse received the AIEE's Edison Medal "For meritorious achievement in connection with the development of the alternating current system."</span>

KiRa [710]

Answer:

      About a month ago I went to Las Vegas. It was fun and I was there to play a basketball tournament. We stayed at some hotel by the strip and after playing a few games walked around. At night we got food and watched the fountain show by this one resort. There was drama, but overall it was a good time to bond with my team.

  On September 11 to the 13th I was in Las Vegas with my basketball team. We took about 4 hours to drive there and back home. It was exciting staying at the Paris, Las Vegas. This was a 4 star hotel by the strip with a tiny replica of the Eiffel Tower by the pool. The games were hard and we lost two of them. However, we came back and had a victory in our last game. The second to last day staying in Vegas we walked the strip. There were places like New York New York and the M&M Factory. We walked even further and saw stores like Gucci, Louis Vuitton, and Prada which we didn't have in our small town home. We also had Panda Express for dinner. After having Panda Express for dinner, we walked the strip to the Bellagio. In front of the Bellagio is fountains. We watched the fountain show and walked back to the room. I disliked the drama of the trip. I did enjoy the good memories that our team made though.
