- Can I ask you a question? - Of course - The first time I went into a house like this in Bombay, they had no beds, but they had a television as big as this. I mean, how can a TV be more important than a bed? - Ah, that's simple. The bed keeps you in a slum. The flat screen takes you out

The New Origin of Species

A Harvard-trained geneticist shows how new findings have shattered Darwin’s best guesses about the origin of species.

by Rick Barry | You don’t know what you don’t know. In his time, Charles Darwin sought to fill huge gaps in his knowledge regarding species. And armed primarily with an 1800s education and his two eyes, perhaps Darwin did the best he could—at least the best anyone could who starts out to explain creation without the Creator...

70s: The adidas Era

In the early 70s, something changed. Famous NBA players who were seen wearing Chuck Taylor’s for most part of their careers were now being seen wearing adidas Superstar

Unlike Chuck Taylors, this particular sneaker was a low cut shoe which had stripes in various colors, on a leather. In case of Celtics, there was a Celtic Green with white stripes

Two of the biggest names in NBA’s Converse fraternity opted for the hip German brand, namely Jerry West of the Lakers and John Havlicek of the Celtics while younger players entering the league had already chosen adidas

By the time Converse made a comeback with its Dr. J’s that would pave the way for its Weapon in the 80s; the 70s decade would be remembered as a decade when a quintessential American brand lost its dominance to two German brands i.e. adidas mostly (Superstar and Top Ten) and to a lesser extent, PUMA (“Clydes”). Meanwhile a young upstart brand was making in roads and would a decade later capitalize on one of adidas’ worst decision ever

For the brand, the significance of this era remains due to players like Jerry West, John Havlicek, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Rick Barry, Bill Walton and Pete Maravich who besides being greats of that era are also among NBA’s 50 Greatest Players of All-Time

Since then the brand hasn’t seen such success or even close to it. The only major signings they’ve had were those of Kobe Bryant (which was lost thanks to adidas’ bad decision in the form of Kobe 2), Tim Duncan and Tracy McGrady

While the Superstar has made a comeback in the urban fashion scene, adidas in general, remains a distant memory on the court
