Motocross Madness is a motocross racing video game developed by Rainbow Studios and published by Microsoft.

A sequel, Motocross Madness 2, was released in 2000. In 2013, a sequel for Xbox 360 was released, titled Motocross Madness. In the game, one can earn money by utilizing "career mode", but play for fun in Baja, Stunts, Enduro, Supercross, and National levels as well.

Gameplay

The game is known for its realism, including terrain, audio, and "bone-chilling" motorcycle wrecks. If the player is in Stunt mode and goes out of bounds after climbing a large cliff, an "invisible slingshot" will cause the player and the bike fly across the map while a funny sound plays until both objects hit the ground. The "invisible slingshot" effect was also used in the game ATV Offroad Fury, also created by Rainbow Studios.

Development
The game went gold on July 24, 1998.

Reception

The game received favorable reviews according to the review aggregation website GameRankings.

Sales
The game sold 35,922 units during 1998. These sales accounted for $1.54 million in revenue that year.

Awards
The game won Computer Games Strategy Plus 1998 "Racing Game of the Year" award. The staff hailed it as "perhaps the best motorcycle racing game of all time." PC Gamer US also named it the best racing game of 1998. During the 2nd Annual Interactive Achievement Awards, the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences named Motocross Madness as a finalist for "PC Sports Game of the Year" and "Outstanding Achievement in Software Engineering", both of which were ultimately awarded to FIFA 99 and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, respectively. It also received a nomination for GameSpots 1998 "Driving Game of the Year" award, which ultimately went to Need for Speed III: Hot Pursuit.

Michael J. Mumma is an American astrobiologist at the Goddard Space Flight Center; he is best known for his investigation of the chemistry of comets.

Education

Mumma graduated Franklin and Marshall College in 1963, with an A.B. in physics.  He received a Ph.D. in physics from the University of Pittsburgh in 1970, and joined NASA's GSFC thereafter.

Career

Mumma is the founding director of the Goddard Center for Astrobiology (2003–present) and Senior Scientist in the Solar System Exploration Division (2005–present). He has had adjunct professorships at Pennsylvania State University, University of Toledo and University of Maryland during his tenure with GFSC.

Mumma's major research interests have been largely directed towards understanding life's origin and its distribution in the cosmos through the study of planetary and cometary chemistry. Mumma pioneered the first detection of water in comets. Using similar spectrometric methodology Mumma has identified many other gaseous species found in comets. He posits that it is possible that comets "seeded life" on the Earth, filling the oceans with water and essential molecular building blocks.  He uses information gleaned from Comet LINEAR showing the same isotopic composition as water on the Earth. Recent cometary data on water confirms the data from Comet LINEAR.  For his longstanding contribution to planetary science, in 1999 the International Astronomical Union named asteroid 8340 "Michael J. Mumma".

Mumma's group at GFSC was the first to report methane plumes on Mars, and suggested that pores in the soil might open only during certain seasons. These findings have been recently confirmed. The source of the methane is still unresolved, whether it is geochemical or from living systems, which would indicate life on Mars.  As far as further findings and conclusions, Mumma stated: "There will be surprising results."

Mumma reports that the most important thing he does is working "intensely" with young scientists, exposing them to the "exciting" research at GFSC.  At Goddard, he has mentored 31 post-docs and senior visiting scientists and has codirected eight Ph. D. theses. So, every day brings something new to us. It's the newness, the continued discovery-rather small ones, larger ones, it doesn't matter, and in my view it's not work, you see. This is the way we spend our lives, in discovery, and this is an opportunity to continue doing that daily.

In 2019 Mumma was part of the team that found water vapors on Europa. This is important as Europa is a prime target in looking for life forms in the solar system.

Mumma appeared as himself in a 2007 episode of The Universe.

Liu Jifu (born July 1949) is a retired Chinese politician who spent his entire career in his home-province Jiangxi. He was investigated by China's top anti-graft agency in October 2021, the 11th year of his retirement. Previously he served as director of Jiangxi Provincial Land and Resources Department, and before that, as party secretary, the top political position in three cities, Jiujiang, Ji'an, and Jiujiang. He was a delegate to the 11th National People's Congress.

Biography
Liu was born in Ji'an County, Jiangxi, in July 1949. In February 1968, he enlisted in the People's Liberation Army, serving until September 1978. He joined the Chinese Communist Party in December 1969.

Beginning in September 1978, he served in several posts in Ji'an Intermediate People's Court, including deputy director of office and deputy president. He served as deputy party secretary and mayor of Jinggangshan, a county-level city under the jurisdiction of Ji'an, in September 1987, and two years later promoted to the party secretary position. It would be his first job as "first-in-charge" of a city. He was promoted to party secretary of Ji'an in August 1991 and was admitted to member of the standing committee of the CPC Ji'an Municipal Committee, the city's top authority. 

In May 1995, he was transferred to the neighboring Yichun city and appointed deputy secretary.

In February 1998, he became deputy party secretary and mayor of Jiujiang, rising to party secretary in December 2001, and concurrently serving as chairman of Jiujiang People's Congress.

In June 2005, he was appointed party branch secretary of Jiangxi Provincial Land and Resources Department, concurrently holding the director position since March 2006. He retired in January 2010.

Downfall
On 13 October 2021, he was put under investigation for alleged "serious violations of discipline and laws" by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI), the party's internal disciplinary body, and the National Supervisory Commission, the highest anti-corruption agency of China. His successor Zhao Zhiyong was dismissed in June 2014 and demoted seven administrative levels from sub-provincial level down to Keyuan (section member). Chen Anzhong, a following party secretary of Jiujiang, was dismissed, arrested and investigated in December 2008 and sentenced 12 years in prison in June 2015.

In 1962, the U.S. Navy issued a requirement for a long-range high-precision air-to-surface missile. The missile, named the AGM-53A Condor, was to use a television guidance system with a data link to the launching aircraft similar to the system of the then projected AGM-62 Walleye.

Development history
Because of numerous problems in the development phase, the first flight of an XAGM-53A missile did not occur before March 1970. 

On 4 February 1971, in its first live warhead test, a Condor made a direct hit on the ex-US navy destroyer escort , while tests later that year demonstrated the ability to hit targets at a range of . The AGM-53 program was cancelled in March 1976. Its long range and potentially high precision made the Condor a very powerful weapon, but it was much more expensive than contemporary tactical air-to-ground weapons. The secure data link contributed a significant portion to total missile cost, and it certainly didn't help that this link was still somewhat unreliable.

Description
The Condor was to be a long-range missile to be used for high-precision stand-off attacks. The missile was launched by the strike aircraft from a distance of up to  to the general target area. When the AGM-53 approached the expected target position, the image of the TV camera in the missile's nose was transmitted back to the operator in the launching aircraft. The operator could switch between wide and narrow field-of-view images to find a suitable target.

As soon as a target for the missile had been selected, the operator could either fly the missile manually until impact, or lock the Condor on the target and rely on the missile's capability to home on the final aiming point. The Condor's linear shaped charge warhead detonated on impact.

A variant of the Condor was anticipated to carry the W73 nuclear warhead, a derivative of the B61 nuclear bomb. Details on the W73 are poorly documented, and it never entered production or service.

Operators
:  The AGM-53 was cancelled before entering service.

Clark’s of Hove v Bakers Union [1978] ICR 1076 is a UK labour law case, concerning the duty to consult over redundancies.

Facts
380 workers were made redundant, and they claimed there was a failure to consult. Clark’s of Hove claimed the ‘exceptional circumstance’ was that it ceased trading on 24 October 1976 after being in financial difficulty since the summer.

Judgment
The Court of Appeal held that ‘insolvency is, on its own, neither here nor there’ and particularly where, as here, there was ‘a gradual run-down of the company’.
