Erik H. Olson (Nov. 29, 1909 - 1995) was an autodidact Swedish artist. His main body of works consists of sculptures such as this one, drawing on a constructivist idiom, but playing with light and color. His work is found at the Tate Gallery in London and MoMA in New York, as well as major Swedish museums.

Bust Zine

What began as a black-and-white Xeroxed feminist fanzine in 1993, Bust evolved into a magazine that continues to have a cult following. Founded by Debbie Stoller, Marcelle Karp, and Laurie Henzel, who asked their friends to "write stories they didn’t see reflected in the media about their lives," the magazine publishes four times a year and is a respected feminist space for writers. They balance humor, social or personal topics of interest, and fun.

Our copies of Bust are held in the Erik Farseth Zine Collection, but we are also home to many interesting zine collections, many of them centering women, that run the gamut from affordable early DIY efforts to more expensive publications.

Whether you’re interested in some of the cool women featured on the cover, or you’re simply a person “with something to get off your chest,” you will find something interesting in Bust and all of the great zines we have here at Special Collections & Archives.

How the NBA dragged its feet before suspending the season due to coronavirus

Dennis Wierzbicki-USA TODAY Sports

The NBA ultimately made the right call, but it took time to get there.

Though the NBA eventually made the prudent choice to suspend the 2019-20 season, it took several stages before acting decisively.

Here’s how the coronavirus outbreak slowly transitioned from a nagging issue in the background to one the league deemed serious enough to halt all operations within the span of 90 minutes.

Stage 1: Acknowledging the problem

The NBA was quick to acknowledge the virus’s existence, but not quick to make substantive changes.

On March 2, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski and Zach Lowe, the league passed along a memo to players saying they should fist-bump spectators rather than high-five and decline autographs on items handed to them by fans.

Less than a week before the World Health Organization officially declared Covid-19 a pandemic, many league stakeholders still weren’t taking it seriously. On March 7, a sign posted at the Chase Center, home to the Golden State Warriors, informed fans “preventive measures” were in place due to the spread of Covid-19 with a warning that attending that night’s game could increase their risk of contracting coronavirus. “By entering the arena, you voluntarily assume all risks and agree that you will not hold GSW Arena LLC, the NBA or any of their respective affiliates or employees liable for any resulting illness or injury.”

That same day, Lakers star LeBron James said he wouldn’t play in front of an empty stadium with no fans.

“We play games without the fans? Nah, that’s impossible,” James said. “I ain’t playing if I ain’t got the fans in the crowd. That’s who I play for. I play for my teammates, and I play for the fans. That’s what it’s all about. So if I show up to an arena and there ain’t no fans in there, I ain’t playing. They can do what they want to do.”

— Mark Medina (@MarkG_Medina) March 7, 2020

Three days later, James changed his tune. “If they feel like it’s best for the safety of the players, the safety of the franchise, the safety of the league to mandate that, then we all listen to it.”

Stage 2: Incremental changes, but not drastic ones

On March 9, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported the league was seriously considering banning fans from attending games, limiting the crowd to just essential personnel. But the league never followed through with those plans until it was too late.

Later that day, the NBA made its first move to prevent the spread of the deadly illness by prohibiting non-essential personnel from locker rooms, including media. Major League Baseball and the NHL followed suit.

Reporting with @WindhorstESPN: NBA is planning to limit locker room access to only players and essential team personnel in wake of coronavirus. Teams are also instructed to create a 6-to-8 foot distance between players and media in availability sessions outside locker rooms.

— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) March 9, 2020

As more cases were confirmed across 39 states, the league and its owners deliberated ways to keep the product rolling. One proposal involved NBA teams moving games to areas with fewer confirmed cases of the virus. That meant teams would play at their opponent’s arena, if necessary, or a neutral one if they needed. That idea, understandably, didn’t get very far.

In the early hours of March 11, less than 24 hours before Gobert was diagnosed, suspending league play was still considered a drastic step. “Individual NBA teams have been hesitant to become the league’s first to voluntarily eliminate fans from home games,” Wojnarowski reported.

Later that afternoon, the city of San Francisco forced the league’s hand when the mayor ordered the cancelation of any gathering of more than 1,000 people, forcing the Golden State Warriors to play their March 12 against Brooklyn without fans.

NBA spokesman Mike Bass says: pic.twitter.com/5TqXGBRyH9

— Ramona Shelburne (@ramonashelburne) March 11, 2020

The Washington D.C. Department of Public Health recommended the city adhere to the same precautions as San Francisco. But Monumental Sports, the ownership group of the Washington Wizards and the NHL’s Washington Capitals, declared it would press on with open games. “At the current direction of the NBA and NHL, our games will go on as scheduled and be open to spectators,” the organization said in a statement.

The Orlando Magic, set to host two games this week, added precautions, but still planned to hold its games with fans in attendance, too. “The health and safety of our fans, employees and players is our top priority,” a team statement read. “We are in contact with local health officials and the NBA as we closely monitor the situation. We encourage all to practice common CDC hygiene guidelines.”

Later that afternoon, the owners convened on a Board of Governors call. Within minutes of the Jazz-Thunder game’s cancelation, it appeared the league would continue its season without fans at the arena.

New story filed to ESPN: The NBA’s Board of Governors shared a consensus on Wednesday to continue the season playing games without fans in arenas amid the coronavirus crisis, and Commissioner Adam Silver is expected to move in that direction with a decision on Thursday.

— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) March 11, 2020

That was not a universal view, though. One team reportedly still wanted to continue the season as if nothing was wrong.

Several teams were willing to put the games on hiatus, but the rest wanted to move toward eliminating fans from arenas to continue playing games, sources tell ESPN. One team wanted to keep status quo until a governmental/public mandate dictated change: The New York Knicks.

— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) March 12, 2020

But that tune changed less than half an hour later, because ...

Stage 3: A player tested positive and all bets were off

On March 9, two days before he would ultimately test positive for Covid-19, Gobert decided to play what he surely thought was a practical joke on members of the media.

So...here is Rudy touching all the mics following Mondays shoot around that has some people concerned... #TakeNote #utahjazz #CoronaVirus pic.twitter.com/dr4auECTr4

— Dave Fox (@Davefox2) March 12, 2020

Gobert played 31 minutes in Utah’s home loss to Toronto that night. Then it was announced he was out for Wednesday’s game against the Thunder due to an “illness.” Gobert’s practical joke seemed a bit tone deaf at the time, but few expected it would cause any harm.

Right as the two teams prepared to tip off Wednesday night, the referees suddenly halted the game. Donnie Strack, the Thunder’s vice president of human and player performance, sprinted onto the court to deliver a message to the officials.

Something is going on here. Thunder head medical staffer Donnie Strack just grabbed the three officials and told them something. All players were just told to go back to their bench. We’re seconds from tipoff.

The players were ushered back to the locker room in front of an arena of confused fans. Half an hour later, the game was called off due to “unforeseen circumstances.”

Around 9:30 p.m. ET, the league announced “a player on the Utah Jazz has preliminarily tested positive for covid-19” and that game play would be suspended until further notice. Players were quarantined in their respective locker rooms and are expected to be tested.

Games that were already in progress finished as scheduled, though word traveled quickly.

Remarkably, a game between the New Orleans Pelicans and Sacramento Kings that hadn’t even started was slated to go on as scheduled until it became clear that one of the referees had called the game Gobert played in Utah days earlier.

The Kings and Pelicans appear to have an issue here at the Golden 1 Center: Courtney Kirkland, one of the refs on the docket tonight, was part of the crew for Monday night's game between the Jazz and Toronto.

— Sam Amick (@sam_amick) March 12, 2020

This has everything to do with the Pelicans players. Word spread about official Courtney Kirkland, and it was a tipping point. “Our guys don’t want to play,” one Pelicans source tells @TheAthleticNBA

— Sam Amick (@sam_amick) March 12, 2020

Soon, that game was called off. And just like that, the season was put on hold.

— Colin Steiner (@ColinSteiner) March 12, 2020

Jazz players and other members of the team’s traveling party, as well as traveling media, stayed in the arena for hours as they were tested by local health officials. They were supposed to fly back to Salt Lake City that night, but were instead put up in a hotel. It is unclear when they will be able to return home.

What happens now? What did the NBA’s deliberation cost them?

Since Gobert tested positive for the disease, it’s possible — nay, likely — others are infected as well. Already, his teammate Donovan Mitchell has tested positive. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the virus that causes Covid-19 can spread if a sick person is within six feet of others. If one NBA player has Covid-19, it could easily spread to other players, along with coaches, trainers, associates, team personnel, and even fans.

The time it takes for Covid-19 symptoms to manifest is unclear. The CDC recommends 14-day quarantines for anyone exposed to the virus because that’s the longest incubation period for similar coronaviruses. Using that as a baseline, it’s exceedingly possible that Gobert a) spread the disease to other players, and b) possibly caught it from someone who has yet to experience symptoms. Already, the league has told players on the Cleveland Cavaliers, New York Knicks, Boston Celtics, Detroit Pistons, and Toronto Raptors to self-quarantine, according to ESPN’s Brian Windhorst. Those teams played the Utah Jazz over the past 10 days.

Then there are the countless staffers, coaches, trainers, media members, associates, and fans who were within six feet of Gobert at some point over that stretch. Even that list doesn’t include other teams who shared resources with the Jazz and are now at risk. For example:

— The Berkeley Beacon (@BeaconUpdate) March 12, 2020

The NBA said it will “use this hiatus to determine next steps for moving forward in regard to the coronavirus pandemic.” Postponing games certainly brings its own set of costs, most notably the loss of income for stadium workers. In a sideline interview with ESPN, Mavericks owner Mark Cuban said he will “put a program together for them.” He added more specifics in a subsequent press conference.

Mark Cuban says the team might ask hourly arena employees to do volunteer work while they offer them financial support.

— Tim Cato (@tim_cato) March 12, 2020

Here’s hoping other owners, and the league at large, follow suit.

The league’s decision to suspend the season, spurred by Donnie Strack’s hustle, was the right one. But had they not dragged their feet on the inevitable and acted before one of its players contracted and potentially spread Covid-19, the NBA and its many stakeholders could have protected more people.

The league is left to think about what it could have done sooner.

AHCA and Mid Term Elections

Mid term elections are Tuesday, November 6, 2018. It's quite some time from now, but I hope people will be able to keep that in the back of their minds, at the very least. I know I don't have friends in too many states, so please share this around if it's not too much trouble. Such is the problem with gerrymandering and the population spread in the United States, in many states it is difficult for Democrats to get representation in states that are largely Republican. Obviously this is a vice versa situation, but all those who voted yes on the bill are Republicans, so it's not exactly an issue that is bipartisan. Below is a list, by district, of all state representatives who voted Yes on the AHCA (American Health Care Act" or "Trumpcare" to pass the House of Representatives with a vote of 217 to 213. Below is also the phone number for each representative if you'd like to call and voice your opinion of the act. You can find your district and representative by entering your zipcode at this website. At the very least, I hope you will share this for friends or family members who view this as the important issue that it is. Thank you!

The FCC is about to give massive internet service providers the power to divide the internet. It is at risk of becoming unrecognizable. A vital global utility that has been a boon to creative and economic freedom for people around the world may be turned into a twisted land of tolls and corporate control.

Those who control the network control the future

The stakes are high. The internet now touches every town, every city, and every single one of us — whether we use it or not. Those who control the network control the future.

The FCC is the current venue for this fight, but Congress will eventually intervene. As telecom expert Susan Crawford argues, the FCC is “being outrageous” to force Congress’ involvement. And both net-neutrality advocates and the telecom industry have asked for lawmakers to act. Advocates believe a law will make net neutrality more durable. But ISPs are betting they’ll be able to write the bill — because they’ve paid for the opportunity.

In March, we published a story that showed contributions from the ISP industry to members of Congress who voted to repeal a landmark FCC privacy rule, opening the door to the sale of customer data. It was one of our most popular stories of the year, and many of you asked why we only published contributions to some members of Congress. Incidentally, every one of the 265 members who voted for the measure in March were Republicans. And many of those same members endorse the effort to end net neutrality.

But it’s fair to want to see monetary influence across all of Congress. While it is clear that alignment with the ISPs is currently drawn along party lines, the industry’s attempt to gain favor with lawmakers is not partisan. Entrenched telecommunications companies liberally spread money and attention to everyone who holds office. Sometimes that influence comes in the form of lavish parties with Olympic athletes and lobbyists, but consistently it comes in the form of contributions to campaigns.

It’s impossible to quantify the overall influence of this powerful industry, but we can chart some of it. Below you will find contributions to individual members of Congress and those members’ leadership PACs, from 1989 to the present day. This money came from the telecommunication industry’s own PACs, their individual members or employees or owners, and those individuals’ immediate families. This data was prepared for The Verge by The Center for Responsive Politics: an independent, non-partisan nonprofit research group that tracks money in US politics and its effect on elections and public policy.
