The **1998 TranSouth Financial 400** was the fifth stock car race of the 1998 NASCAR Winston Cup Series season and the 42nd iteration of the event. The race was held on Sunday, March 22, 1998, in Darlington, South Carolina, at Darlington Raceway, a 1.366 miles (2.198 km) permanent egg-shaped oval racetrack.

## Background

**Darlington Raceway** is a race track built for NASCAR racing located near Darlington, South Carolina. It is nicknamed **"The Lady in Black"** and **"The Track Too Tough to Tame"** by many NASCAR fans and drivers and advertised as "A NASCAR Tradition." It is of a unique, somewhat egg-shaped design, an oval with the ends of very different configurations, a condition which supposedly arose from the proximity of one end of the track to a minnow pond the owner refused to relocate. This situation makes it very challenging for the crews to set up their cars' handling in a way that is effective at both ends.

## Qualifying

Qualifying was split into two rounds. The first round was held on Friday, March 20, at 3:30 PM EST. Each driver would have one lap to set a time. During the first round, the top 25 drivers in the round would be guaranteed a starting spot in the race. If a driver was not able to guarantee a spot in the first round, they had the option to scrub their time from the first round and try and run a faster lap time in a second round qualifying run, held on Saturday, March 21, at 11:30 AM EST. As with the first round, each driver would have one lap to set a time. On January 24, 1998, NASCAR would announce that the amount of provisionals given would be increased from last season. Positions 26-36 would be decided on time, while positions 37-43 would be based on provisionals. Six spots are awarded by the use of provisionals based on owner's points. The seventh is awarded to a past champion who has not otherwise qualified for the race. If no past champion needs the provisional, the next team in the owner points will be awarded a provisional.

Mark Martin, driving for Roush Racing, would win the pole, setting a time of 29.156 and an average speed of 168.665 miles per hour (271.440 km/h).

Six drivers would fail to qualify: Wally Dallenbach Jr., Dave Marcis, Hut Stricklin, Gary Bradberry, Morgan Shepherd, and Ron Hornaday Jr.

title: Basal body temperature

abstract: Basal body temperature is the lowest body temperature attained during rest. It is usually estimated by a temperature measurement immediately after awakening and before any physical activity has been undertaken. This will lead to a somewhat higher value than the true BBT. In women, ovulation causes a sustained increase of at least 0.2 °C (0.4 °F) in BBT. Monitoring BBTs is one way of estimating the day of ovulation. The tendency of a woman to have lower temperatures before ovulation, and higher temperatures afterwards, is known as a biphasic temperature pattern. Charting this pattern may be used as a component of fertility awareness. The BBT of men is comparable to the BBT of women in their follicular phase.

# Basal body temperature

**Basal body temperature** (**BBT** or **BTP**) is the lowest body temperature attained during rest (usually during sleep). It is usually estimated by a temperature measurement immediately after awakening and before any physical activity has been undertaken. This will lead to a somewhat higher value than the true BBT.

In women, ovulation causes a sustained increase of at least 0.2 °C (0.4 °F) in BBT. Monitoring BBTs is one way of estimating the day of ovulation. The tendency of a woman to have lower temperatures before ovulation, and higher temperatures afterwards, is known as a biphasic temperature pattern. Charting this pattern may be used as a component of fertility awareness. The BBT of men is comparable to the BBT of women in their follicular phase.

## Hormonal causes of biphasic patterns

The higher levels of estrogen present during the pre-ovulatory (follicular) phase of the menstrual cycle lower BBTs. The higher levels of progesterone released by the corpus luteum after ovulation raise BBTs. After ovulation, the temperature will be raised by at least 0.2 °C (0.4 °F), for at least 72 hours, compared to the previous six days.

## As a birth control method

### While avoiding pregnancy

Charting of basal body temperatures is used in some methods of fertility awareness, such as the sympto-thermal method, and may be used to determine the onset of post-ovulatory infertility. When BBT alone is used to avoid a pregnancy, it is sometimes called the Temperature Rhythm method.

Basal body temperature alone is most effective at preventing pregnancy if the couple abstains from intercourse from the beginning of menstruation through the third day after the basal body temperature has risen. BBTs only show when ovulation has occurred; they do not predict ovulation. Sperm typically lasts for at least three days and can survive as long as a week, making prediction of ovulation several days in advance necessary for avoiding pregnancy.

### Effectiveness

There is limited evidence about the effectiveness of fertility awareness family planning methods, some of which use basal body temperature as one component. About 24% of women who use any type of fertility awareness program become pregnant during the first year, compared to about 85% of sexually active women who are not trying to prevent a pregnancy.

The World Health Organization ranked fertility awareness methods, taken as a whole, as an "effective" method of preventing pregnancies. The WHO placed fertility awareness methods in the third tier of effectiveness, after "most effective" methods such as IUDs and "very effective" methods such as combined oral contraceptive pills.

## Trying to conceive

Couples that are trying to conceive can use BBT to determine when the opportunity for a pregnancy during this cycle has passed.

## As a diagnostic test

### For infertility

Infertility due to lack of ovulation is common. BBT charts can be used to identify when and whether ovulation is taking place.

Regular menstrual cycles are often taken as evidence that a woman is ovulating normally, and irregular cycles is evidence she is not. However, many women with irregular cycles do ovulate normally, and some with regular cycles are actually anovulatory or have a luteal phase defect. Records of basal body temperature can be used to accurately determine if a woman is ovulating.

## For estimating the timing of childbirth

Calculating the expected due date for a pregnancy based upon the self-reported last menstrual period is less accurate than calculating it based upon either BBT or ultrasound.

title: 1998–99 Los Angeles Clippers season

abstract: The 1998–99 NBA season was the Clippers' 29th season in the National Basketball Association, and their 15th season in Los Angeles. On March 23, 1998, the owners of all 29 NBA teams voted 27–2 to reopen the league's collective bargaining agreement, seeking changes to the league's salary cap system, and a ceiling on individual player salaries. The National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) opposed to the owners' plan, and wanted raises for players who earned the league's minimum salary. After both sides failed to reach an agreement, the owners called for a lockout, which began on July 1, 1998, putting a hold on all team trades, free agent signings and training camp workouts, and cancelling many NBA regular season and preseason games. Due to the lockout, the NBA All-Star Game, which was scheduled to be played in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on February 14, 1999, was also cancelled. However, on January 6, 1999, NBA commissioner David Stern, and NBPA director Billy Hunter finally reached an agreement to end the lockout. The deal was approved by both the players and owners, and was signed on January 20, ending the lockout after 204 days. The regular season began on February 5, and was cut short to just 50 games instead of the regular 82-game schedule. This was also the final season where the team played at the Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena, and played occasional home games at the Arrowhead Pond in Anaheim. The Clippers won the Draft Lottery selecting Michael Olowokandi out of Pacific University with the first overall pick in the 1998 NBA draft, and signed free agents Sherman Douglas, and undrafted rookie forward Tyrone Nesby in the off-season. However, the Clippers still struggled under new head coach Chris Ford, losing their first 17 games of the season, tying the 1988–89 Miami Heat for the then-worst start in NBA history. During the midseason period, the team signed second-year guard Troy Hudson in March. The Clippers lost 30 of their first 33 games, then lost their final six games, finishing last place in the Pacific Division with a 9–41 record. They tied the 1972–73 Philadelphia 76ers for the fourth-lowest win total for a season behind the 1998–99 Vancouver Grizzlies, the 2011–12 Charlotte Bobcats, and the 1947–48 Providence Steamrollers. Second-year forward Maurice Taylor showed improvement, averaging 16.8 points and 5.3 rebounds per game, while Lamond Murray played a sixth man role off the bench, averaging 12.2 points per game. In addition, three-point specialist Eric Piatkowski contributed 10.5 points per game, while Nesby provided the team with 10.1 points and 1.5 steals per game, and Olowokandi averaged 8.9 points and 7.9 rebounds per game, and was named to the NBA All-Rookie Second Team. Douglas contributed 8.2 points and 4.1 assists per game, while Darrick Martin contributed 8.0 points and 3.9 assists per game, Rodney Rogers provided with 7.4 points per game off the bench, and Lorenzen Wright averaged 6.6 points and 7.5 rebounds per game. Following the season, Murray was traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers, while Rogers signed as a free agent with the Phoenix Suns, Wright was dealt to the Atlanta Hawks, Douglas re-signed with the New Jersey Nets, Martin signed with the Sacramento Kings, and Pooh Richardson was released to free agency.

# Bart Peeters

**Bart August Maria Peeters** (born 30 November 1959) is a Belgian singer, musician, television presenter and actor.

## Biography

### Early years

Peeters studied Germanic philology and drama in Antwerp. There, he met Jan Leyers and Hugo Matthysen, with whom he worked later.

In 1972, Peeters, still a teenager, played the title role in teen drama *Bart Banninks*. He went on to present some comedy and music shows aimed at teenagers. In 1978, Bart Peeters, Hugo Matthysen, Jan Leyers, and Marc Kruithof played in a coverband called Beri Beri, but as a musician, Bart Peeters gained fame with The Radios. This band (with Ronny Mosuse, Robert Mosuse, Dany Lademacher, Alain Van Zeveren, and Marc Bonne) had an international hit with 'She Goes Nana' in 1991.

### Television career

After gaining fame, his television career took off starting with a main role in the now legendary series *Dag Sinterklaas,* in which he visited Sinterklaas (played by Jan Decleir) in his castle. After that, he presented some of the most popular television shows in Flanders, such as *De Droomfabriek* and *De Leukste Eeuw*. *Het Peulengaleis*, a television spin-off from *Het Leugenpaleis*, a radio comedy show he presented together with Hugo Matthysen, gained a large cult following. He became the most popular television personality in Flanders, being selected to present large one-off shows such as the celebration show for 50 years of television in Flanders or the tsunami relief telethon and presenting some television shows in The Netherlands.

Music was always present in his television career: he presented the Flemish selection show for the Eurovision Song Contest several times, had his talent show (*De Grote Prijs Bart Peeters*), and presented several music shows (*Lalala Live*, *Nonkel Pop*,...). During this time he was also the drummer for The Clement Peerens Explosition, a parody rock band that started in his radio show *Het Leugenpaleis*.

### Solo career

After touring as *Bart Peeters zonder circus* (*Bart Peeters without circus*) and making a solo album based on the tour called *Het Plaatje van Bart Peeters* (*The Record of Bart Peeters*) in 2004, he decided to spend more time on music again, starting a proper solo career. In 2006 he made *Slimmer dan de Zanger* (*More Clever Than the Singer*) and in 2008 he released his third album, *De Hemel in het Klad* (*Draft of Heaven*), which went straight to number one on the Flemish charts. A fourth album titled *De Ideale Man* (*The Ideal Man*), said to be the third of a trilogy together with *Slimmer dan de Zanger* and *De Hemel in het Klad*, was released in October 2010. That same year, he won a Music Industry Award in Flanders for best Dutch-language artist, after which he released a compilation album called *Het Beste en Tot Nog Eens* (*All the best and see you later*) and took a break from recording music. In 2014 he made his comeback with *Op de Groei* (*To Grow Into*).

Bart Peeters is married and has two daughters and a son. He lives in Hove near Antwerp.

# Basic Role-Playing

***Basic Role-Playing*** (***BRP***) is a tabletop role-playing game which originated in the *RuneQuest* fantasy role-playing game. Chaosium released the *BRP* standalone booklet in 1980 in the boxed set release of the second edition of *RuneQuest*. Greg Stafford and Lynn Willis are credited as the authors. Chaosium used the percentile skill-based system as the basis for most of their games, including *Call of Cthulhu*, *Stormbringer*, and *Elfquest*.

## History

The core rules were written by Steve Perrin as part of his game *RuneQuest*. It was Greg Stafford's idea to simplify the rules (eliminating such mechanics as Strike Ranks and Hit Locations) and issue them in a 16-page booklet called *Basic Role-Playing*. Since the first *BRP* release, designers including Sandy Petersen, Lynn Willis, and Steve Henderson, have contributed to the system.

The system was notable for being the first role-playing game system to introduce a full skill system to characters regardless of their profession. This was developed in *RuneQuest* but was also later adopted by the more skill-oriented *Call of Cthulhu* RPG.

*BRP* was conceived of as a generic system. Specific rule systems for support differing genres could be added to the core rules in a modular fashion. In order to underscore this, in 1982 Chaosium released the *Worlds of Wonder* box set, which contained a revised main booklet and several booklets providing the additional rules for playing in specific genres. The superhero-themed *Superworld* originated as part of this set. A third edition of the core booklet, now entitled *Basic Roleplaying: The Chaosium System*, was released in 2002.

In 2004, Chaosium began publishing the *Basic Roleplaying* monographs, a series of paperback booklets. The first four monographs (*Players Book*, *Magic Book*, *Creatures Book*, and *Gamemaster Book*) was the same as *RuneQuest* 3rd Edition, but with trademarked elements removed, as Chaosium had lost the rights to the name but retained copyright to the rules text. Additional monographs allowing for new mechanics, thereby extending the system to other genres, were released in the following years. Many of these monographs reproduced rules from other Chaosium-published *BRP* games that had gone out of print.

Jason Durall and Sam Johnson gathered up previous works and updated them to a new edition. published in 2008. This comprehensive book, *Basic Roleplaying: The Chaosium System* nicknamed the "Big Gold Book". It allowed game masters to build their own game out of the included subsystems. A quickstart booklet for new players accompanied it. In 2011, it was updated to a second edition.

In 2020, Chaosium released *Basic Roleplaying* as a System Reference Document (SRD).

A new edition, entitled *Basic Roleplaying: Universal Game Engine*, appeared in 2023, initially as a PDF and later as a hardbound book.

## Licensed adaptations

Preexisting RPG and fiction settings converted to the system by Chaosium using the *BRP* ruleset include *Ringworld*, *Hawkmoon*, and an adaptation of the French RPG *Nephilim*.

*BRP* is similar to other generic systems such as *GURPS*, *Hero System*, or *Savage Worlds* in that it uses a simple resolution method which can be broadly applied. It uses a core set of seven characteristics: Size, Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Power, and Appearance or Charisma. From these, a character derives scores in various skills, expressed as percentages. These skill scores are the basis of play. When attempting an action, the player rolls percentile dice to attempt to get a result equal to or lower than the character's skill score. Each incarnation of the *BRP* rules changed or added to the core ideas and mechanics, so that games are not identical. For example, in *Call of Cthulhu*, skills may never be over 100%, while in *Stormbringer* skills in excess of 100% are within reach for all characters. Scores can increase through experience checks, the mechanics of which vary in an individual game.

The system treats armor and defense as separate: the act of parrying is a defensive skill that reduces an opponent's chance to successfully land an attack, and the purpose of armor is to absorb damage.

In most *BRP* games there is no difference between the player character race systems and that of monsters or other opponents. By varying ability scores, the same system is used for a human hero as a troll villain. This approach allows for players to play a variety of nonhuman species.

## Adaptations of the system

Chaosium was an early adopter of licensing out its *BRP* system to other companies, something that was unique at the time they began but commonplace now thanks to the d20 licenses. This places *BRP* in the notable position of being one of the first products to allow other game companies to develop games or game aids for their work. For example, *Other Suns*, published by Fantasy Games Unlimited, used them under license. *BRP* was also used as the base for the Swedish game *Drakar och Demoner* from Target Games.

## Reception

In the July 1981 edition of *The Space Gamer* (Issue No. 41), Ronald Pehr commented that "*Basic Role-Playing* is too little too late. *RuneQuest* is long established, does an adequate job of teaching role-playing, and there are now even more games to choose from. If you want to teach role-playing to a very young, but literate, child, *Basic Role-Playing* is excellent. Otherwise, for all its charm, it's not much use.".

In the August 1981 edition of *Dragon* (Issue 52), John Sapienza noted that *Basic Roleplaying* was "not a fantasy role-playing game as such, but a handbook on how to role-play and a simple combat system to help the beginner get into the act." Despite this, Sapienza called it "one of the best introductions to the practical social interactions in gaming that I have read, and will give beginning gamers the kind of guidance they typically do not get in the full-scale games they will graduate to, since game writers usually spend their time on mechanics instead of on the proper relationships between player and player, player and referee, or player and character." He concluded, "*Basic Role-Playing* is a truly universal introduction to the hobby — highly recommended."

### Awards

The *BRP* itself has been the recipient, via its games, of many awards. Most notable was the 1981 Origins Award for *Best Roleplaying Rules of 1981* for *Call of Cthulhu*. Other editions of *Call of Cthulhu* have also won Origins Awards including the Hall of Fame award. The *BRP* Character Generation software has also won awards for its design.

The **1996 Grand National** (known as the Martell Grand National for sponsorship reasons) was the 149th official renewal of the world-famous Grand National steeplechase that took place at Aintree on 30 March 1996. It was the first national to run since 3 time winner Red Rum was buried at the winning post following his death the previous October.

The race was won in a time of nine minutes and 0.8 seconds and by a distance of 1+14 lengths by Rough Quest, the 7/1 favourite, ridden by Mick Fitzgerald. The winner was trained by Terry Casey at his base in Dorking, Surrey, and ran in the colours of Andrew Wates, the chairman of Kempton Park Racecourse. Casey collected £142,534 of a total prize fund shared through the first four finishers of over £230,000. A maximum of 40 competitors was permitted but only 27 ran. There was one equine fatality during the race.

## Leading contenders

Rough Quest was sent off as 7/1 favourite having won the Racing Post Chase at Kempton in February and then followed up by finishing second in the Cheltenham Gold Cup sixteen days before the National. Jockey Mick Fitzgerald took his second ride in the race. The favourite moved into contention at the start of the second circuit, taking the last flight in second place before overhauling the leader to win by 1+14 lengths.

Son Of War was regarded as the housewives' choice, being the only grey in the race and was considered the best hope of a first Irish-trained victory for over two decades, having won the Irish Grand National in 1994. Connor O'Dwyer was taking his sixth ride in the race and had moved into tenth position when he was unseated at the Canal Turn on the second circuit.

Young Hustler, trained by Nigel Twiston-Davies, was having his third attempt in the National, having fallen early on in 1994 and being brought down before completing a circuit in 1995. However he regained public confidence when winning the Becher Chase over one circuit of the course in November. Chris Maude was given his second ride in the race and took the 8/1 shot to the front right from the start, remaining there until being headed turning for the second-last and eventually finishing fifth.

Superior Finish had also failed to complete a circuit of his previous attempt at the National in 1995 when considered an each-way chance but was backed down to 9/1 when the most experienced and successful rider in the race, Richard Dunwoody, booked him as his 11th National ride after winning the Cazelet/Mildmay Memorial Chase in February. The horse looked to be struggling taking the Canal Turn for the second time but finished strongly, passing beaten horses to snatch third place on the line.

Life Of A Lord was a seventh National ride for Charlie Swan and was backed down to 10/1 after winning the Kerry Grand National the previous September. The only ever training entry of illustrious flat trainer Aidan O'Brien, he had every chance when jumping the Canal Turn in fifth place but came under pressure after the third-last and faded to finish seventh.

Party Politics was a favourite among the masses of once-a-year punters, having won the race in 1992 and been second in 1995, and provided Carl Llewellyn with his sixth ride, having also been in the saddle for all three of his mount's previous attempts, including the void race of 1993. The former winner was a shock faller at the third fence and was promptly retired.

Other well-fancied runners included 1995 Agfa Diamond Chase winner Deep Bramble who was pulled up after going lame on the way to the second-last fence and was later retired; twice Thystes Chase winner Wylde Hide who was still in touch in 11th place when unseating his rider at the Canal Turn second time around; Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir Challenge Cup runner-up at Cheltenham Encore En Peu, who moved up to dispute the lead at Valentine's on the second circuit before going clear after the second-last, only to be headed after the elbow; and the 1994 Badger Ales Chase winner Lusty Light, despite having fallen at the first fence in 1995, who this time got around without ever getting into contention to finish a distant 16th.

Commentator Peter O'Sullevan describes the climax of the race

The BBC retained the rights to broadcast the race live on television for the 37th consecutive year and was shown as part of a *Grandstand* Grand National special, presented live from the course by Des Lynam. The race would start earlier this year at 3.00pm so to fit in the Formula One qualifying for the Brazilian Grand Prix later in the programme.

The build-up to the race included analysis of the runners from Richard Pitman, Peter Scudamore and Bill Smith and interviews with connections in the saddling boxes and parade ring from Sue Barker, while Julian Wilson also provided special reports and a postscript of events afterwards.

The race itself was covered for the third consecutive year by commentary team John Hamner, Jim McGrath, and lead commentator Peter O'Sullevan, who called the winner home for the 49th year.

Pitman, Scudamore and Smith also covered a slow motion replay of the race.

## Stewards' enquiry

The 1996 race was only the second National in history where a stewards' enquiry was called against the winner. The possibility that Rough Quest had crossed and impeded Encore En Peu on the run-in was investigated.

While television pictures clearly showed David Bridgwater having to reel in the reins of his mount to avoid a collision, it was also evident that Rough Quest was finishing the stronger, having overtaken Encore En Peu on the run-in. The stewards upheld the result despite suggestions that the result would have been overturned in a less significant race. Julian Wilson commented on *Grandstand*: "The wonderful thing is that a change in the rules has allowed the winner to keep the race but to be honest ten or twelve years ago I think he would have been thrown out and the second would have got it." Second-placed Bridgwater said: "I thought three out that I was gonna win. Mick \[Fitzgerald\] has come across me and I've had to snatch up a little bit and had it been at Hereford I probably would have got it but being as it's Aintree and there's so many million people watching, they've gotta be a bit careful about it. It was the right result on the day. If I'd have got it in the stewards' room it wouldn't have felt like I'd won a Grand National."

There was also a stewards enquiry into third place but the result was also allowed to stand.

Once the enquiry was complete, Mick Fitzgerald made the infamous comment in a post-race interview: "I've not enjoyed 12 minutes for as long in a long time. I think sex is an anti-climax after that!"

title: Euskal Heritarrok

abstract: Euskal Herritarrok was a coalition created in 1998 that replaced Herri Batasuna. It was intended as an expansion of this coalition to include a wider spectrum of sympathizers. The name played with the rather usual acronym EH that also means Euskal Herria: the Basque Country.

# Euskal Heritarrok

*Euskal Herritarrok* (Basque for "We, the Basque citizens") was a coalition created in 1998 that replaced Herri Batasuna. It was intended as an expansion of this coalition to include a wider spectrum of sympathizers. The name played with the rather usual acronym EH that also means *Euskal Herria*: the Basque Country.

That year, Euskal Herritarrok obtained 14 deputies in the Basque Parliament with 18% of popular support (one of the highest ever for the Nationalist Left). In 1999 it signed a pact to support the government of Juan José Ibarretxe (EAJ-PNV). The agreement broke in 2000 after the failure of a year-long ETA truce (see: Lizarra Agreement) on which they accused each other of being responsible.

After these events Herri Batasuna started a new process of debate that ended in the formation of Batasuna and the split of Aralar.
