Windsor Phoenix F.C. | short description | thumb|left|1887–88 Berks and Bucks Junior Cup final, Windsor Phoenix 3–2 Reading Albion, Bucks Free Press, 16 March 1888
Windsor Phoenix Football Club was an association football club from Windsor, Berkshire, active in the late Victorian era. |
Windsor Phoenix F.C. | History | History
The Windsor Phœnix Athletic Club was formed in 1881, and it started to play association football against other sides in earnest in 1883; the club was therefore sometimes called Windsor Phoenix Athletic. The club had some high profile patronage - after the Rev. S. Hawtrey died in 1886, he was replaced as vice-president by Viscount Curzon MP.
Its earliest competitive football came in the Berks & Bucks Junior Cup - a defeat at Maidenhead Norfolkians in the first round in 1886 being considered a considerable shock - and the club's first success came in the competition in the 1887–88 season, upsetting competition favourites Reading Albion with a 3–2 win at Maidenhead, all of the goals coming in the first half. The club also won the Henesey Trophy, a competition arranged by Uxbridge, in 1889–90, 500 people seeing the club beat Colnbrook 4–0 in the final.
Phœnix entered the FA Cup for the first time in the 1890–91 FA Cup qualifying rounds, and started with an impressive 6–1 win over Schorne College at Clewer, scoring five in the second half without reply. The club lost its second round match at home to Hunts County, but finished the season with its greatest triumph, winning the Berks & Bucks Senior Cup for the only time, hammering the 2nd Scots Guards at Maidenhead.
However its 1891–92 season was far less successful; the club entered 5 Cup competitions, and exited in the first round in four of them, the exception being the Senior, in which the club reached the semi-final. A pointer to the future came at Easter 1892, when Phœnix accepted players from other clubs under the name Windsor United for a series of exhibition matches, and, following a meeting in July 1892, the Phœnix and Windsor St Albans clubs agreed to merge permanently, into a side to be known as Windsor & Eton Football Club; Windsor & Eton Victoria was also represented at the meeting, but (for the moment) declined the invitation. Phœnix had already accepted a place in the Southern Alliance, which the new club took up, and the name Windsor Phœnix was revived for a junior club in the late 1890s. |

Chromosome condensation | [[File:Condensation1.png | 450px|thumb|Figure 1 Interphase nucleus and mitotic chromosomes in human cells. Bar, 10 μm
Chromosome condensation refers to the process by which dispersed interphase chromatin is transformed into a set of compact, rod-shaped structures during mitosis and meiosis (Figure 1).
The term "chromosome condensation" has long been used biology. However, it is now increasingly recognized that mitotic chromosome condensation proceeds through mechanisms distinct from those governing "condensation" in physical chemistry (e.g., gas-to-liquid phase transitions) or the formation of "biomolecular condensates" in cell biology. Consequently, some researchers have argued that the term "chromosome condensation" may be misleading in this context. For this reason, alternative terms such as "chromosome assembly" or "chromosome formation" are also commonly used. |
Chromosome condensation | Processes of chromosome condensation | Processes of chromosome condensation |
Chromosome condensation | From DNA to chromosomes | From DNA to chromosomes
A diploid human cell contains 46 chromosomes: 22 pairs of autosomes (22 × 2) and one pair of sex chromosomes (XX or XY). The total length of DNA within a single nucleus reaches ~2 m. These DNA molecules are initially wrapped around histones to form nucleosomes, which are further compacted into chromatin fibers, commonly referred to as 30-nm fibers. During interphase, these fibers are confined within the nucleus, which has a diameter of only ~10–20 um. During mitosis, chromatin is reorganized into a set of rod-shaped structures (i.e., mitotic chromosomes) that can be individually distinguished under a microscope.
This transformation was first described meticulously in the late 19th century by the German cytologist Walther Flemming. Originally, the term "chromosome" referred specifically to these highly condensed mitotic structures, although its meaning has since broadened (see Chromosome).
In mitotic chromosomes of higher eukaryotes, DNA is compacted lengthwise by a factor of ~10,000. For example, human chromosome 8 contains a DNA molecule about 50 mm long, yet it is folded into a metaphase chromosome only ~5 um in length. This degree of compaction is comparable to folding a 600-meter-long thread (the height of the Tokyo Skytree) into the size of an AA battery. |
Chromosome condensation | Physiological significance of chromosome condensation | Physiological significance of chromosome condensation
As described above, although DNA in interphase is already organized into chromatin, it is dispersed throughout the nucleus and therefore not observed as individual chromosomes. Upon entry into prophase, condensation begins near the nuclear periphery, and fibrous structures gradually become visible. After nuclear envelope breakdown in prometaphase, condensation proceeds further. By metaphase, when condensation is apparently complete, the two sister chromatids of each chromosome can be clearly distinguished. This entire sequence of processes is often collectively referred to as chromosome condensation; however, due to our currently limited understanding of the higher-order structure of chromosomes, the precise definition of this term remains ambiguous.
450px|thumb|Figure 2. Steps of chromosome condensation
450px|thumb|Figure 3. Chromosome cycle
In principle, the process of chromosome condensation can be divided into three sequential but overlapping steps (Figure 2) :
1. Individualization – Disentanglement of chromatin fibers dispersed throughout the nucleus into discrete chromosome units.
2. Shaping/Compaction – Organization of each chromosome into a compact, rod-like structure.
3. Resolution – Resolution of replicated DNA strands within each chromosome into two distinct sister chromatids.
Although conceptually distinct, these steps occur concurrently and synergistically during mitosis. For this reason, the entire process is often collectively referred to as chromosome condensation.
Importantly, chromosome condensation is not merely a reduction in chromatin length. Rather, it involves the organized folding of chromatin, initially in a random-coil–like state, into a highly structured rod-shaped form. This structural transformation is critical for ensuring the proper separation of sister chromatids during anaphase and provides the mechanical stiffness necessary for their faithful segregation. Defects in chromosome condensation can impair chromosome segregation and ultimately lead to genome instability. |
Chromosome condensation | Protein factors essential for chromosome condensation | Protein factors essential for chromosome condensation
Eukaryotic chromosome condensation has long been regarded as a highly complex process involving numerous proteins. However, recent studies have shown that single chromatids can be reconstituted in vitro by mixing sperm nuclei with only six purified proteins: core histones, three histone chaperones, topoisomerase II, and condensin I. The three histone chaperones serve distinct roles in this reconstitution assay: (1) Npm2 (Nucleoplasmin 2) removes basic sperm-specific proteins from sperm chromatin; (2) Nap1 (Nucleosome assembly protein 1) deposits core histones H2A-H2B onto DNA to form nucleosomes; (3) FACT (Facilitates Chromatin Transcription) dynamically remodels nucleosomes, thereby aiding the actions of topoisomerase II and condensin I. These chaperones do not remain associated with the final product of mitotic chromatids. In other words, the core reactions of mitotic chromosome condensation can be recapitulated using only three structural proteins, core histones, topoisomerase II, and condensin I, provided that their actions are aided by appropriate chaperone-mediated regulation.
Independent lines of previous evidence strongly support this simple model of chromosome condensation. For example, it has long been known that histones account for approximately half of the total protein mass in mitotic chromosomes. Both topoisomerase II and condensin I have been identified as major structural components of mitotic chromosomes as well as of the so-called chromosome scaffold. Functional assays using Xenopus egg extracts and genetic analyses in fission yeast further demonstrated that both proteins are essential for properly assembling mitotic chromosomes.
Surprisingly, it has been shown that chromosome-like structures can be assembled in Xenopus egg extracts even under conditions where nucleosome assembly is suppressed, provided that condensins are present.Shintomi K, Inoue F, Watanabe H, Ohsumi K, Ohsugi M, Hirano T. (2017). "Mitotic chromosome assembly despite nucleosome depletion in Xenopus egg extracts". Science, 356 (6344):1284-1287. PMID 28522692 These “nucleosome-depleted" chromosomes consist of a central condensin-enriched axis and extended DNA loops emanating from it. This observation indicates that condensins are essential for the shaping of chromosome architecture, whereas histones contribute to the compaction of DNA loops. |
Chromosome condensation | Regulation of chromosome condensation | Regulation of chromosome condensation
Chromosome condensation is a process unique to mitosis and meiosis, and thus, the proteins involved in this process are subject to cell cycle regulation, often mediated by post-translational modifications (PTMs).
Among these, the most intensively studied mechanism is the phosphorylation of condensin complexes. It has been shown that phosphorylation by Cdk1 is essential for both the DNA supercoiling activity and chromosome assembly activity of condensin I. Experiments using Xenopus egg extracts have led to a proposed mechanism in which phosphorylation of the N-terminal region of the CAP-H subunit relieves its self-suppression, thereby activating condensin I. Similarly, in condensin II, Cdk1-dependent phosphorylation of the C-terminal region of the CAP-D3 subunit plays a role in releasing its inhibitory constraint. However, phosphoregulation of condensins is complex and multilayered, and a full mechanistic understanding has not yet been achieved.
Topoisomerase II is also subject to numerous PTMs. However, it remains unclear whether any of these modifications specifically regulate its activity during mitosis.
Mitotic phosphorylation of linker histone H1 and core histone H3 has been known for decades. Nevertheless, there is currently no direct evidence that these modifications actively or directly regulate chromosome condensation. In contrast, histone deacetylation has recently been reported to play an important role in this process.
In addition to PTMs, external regulatory factors also contribute to the regulation of chromosome condensation. For example, KIF4A, a chromokinesin, acts as a positive regulator of condensin I, whereas MCPH1, a microcephaly-associated protein, serves as a negative regulator of condensin II. Ki-67, a nucleolar protein, plays a critical role in chromosome individualization during early mitosis by coating the surface of mitotic chromosomes. |
Chromosome condensation | Models of mitotic chromosomes and emerging experimental approaches | Models of mitotic chromosomes and emerging experimental approaches
How chromatin fibers are folded within mitotic chromosomes remains an unsolved question in cell biology. Several models have been proposed to explain the higher-order architecture of condensed chromosomes. Classical models include the hierarchical folding model and the radial loop model . More recently, additional models such as the polymer model and the hierarchical folding and axial glue model have been introduced.
One of the major reasons for the slow progress in understanding the folding of chromatin fibers within mitotic chromosomes has been the limited availability of experimental tools for their structural analysis. Recently, however, the development of a variety of new technologies has enabled more detailed and multifaceted investigations.

Chromosome condensation | Chromosome condensation in prokaryotes | Chromosome condensation in prokaryotes
Prokaryotic cells, although lacking histones and a defined cell nucleus, organize their genomic DNA into compact structures known as nucleoids, which are functionally analogous to eukaryotic nuclei.
In bacteria, DNA compaction is facilitated by the introduction of negative supercoils (typically of the plectonemic type) by the enzyme DNA gyrase, a bacterial type II topoisomerase. In contrast, archaea possess histone-like proteins, and in some species, nucleosome-like particles with ~60 base pair periodicity have been observed . Recent advances in metagenomics and structure prediction algorithms have led to the discovery and classification of numerous histone-like proteins across prokaryotes.
Many bacterial and archaeal species also possess SMC protein complexes analogous to eukaryotic condensins, including SMC–ScpAB and MukBEF, which play direct roles in organizing the nucleoid structure. Loss-of-function mutations in these complexes cause abnormal nucleoid morphology and defects in chromosome segregation. Thus, prokaryotes undergo a process functionally equivalent to chromosome condensation, which is critical for ensuring proper chromosome segregation within a spatially confined cell volume. Furthermore, Hi-C) technology has been applied to study the dynamics of nucleoid reorganization mediated by bacterial condensin in several model organisms, including Caulobacter crescentus, Bacillus subtilis, and Escherichia coli.
These findings are crucial not only for redefining chromosome condensation at the molecular level but also for understanding the evolutionary conservation and diversification of chromosome architecture across domains of life. |

Draft:Black Birch Scientific Facilities | Short description |
The Black Birch Range, located near Blenheim in the Marlborough region of New Zealand, has hosted a number of astronomical and scientific installations. The site was selected for its high altitude, low levels of light pollution, and stable atmospheric conditions, which made it suitable for observational astronomy and related research. |
Draft:Black Birch Scientific Facilities | History and background | History and background
The Black Birch Range was identified in the mid-20th century as a suitable location for astronomical research due to its dark skies, high elevation, and stable atmospheric conditions.
In the early 1960s, New Zealand astronomer Frank Bateson conducted site testing at Black Birch using portable instruments supplied by the United States Naval Observatory (USNO). Bateson lived on-site in a small hut during this period and recorded data on sky clarity and temperature stability, using the same equipment previously employed by USNO for site evaluations in the United States.
Local residents in the Marlborough region assisted by constructing access roads and connecting electricity to the site, enabling the temporary testing facility to operate. Although Mount John in Tekapo was ultimately selected for New Zealand’s national observatory, Bateson’s work at Black Birch contributed to the site’s recognition as a viable location for international research. His surveys are credited with laying the groundwork for the later establishment of the USNO’s southern hemisphere station at Black Birch. |

The Black Birch Astrometric Observatory was established by the United States Naval Observatory (USNO) and operated from 1984 to 1996. Its primary focus was high-precision astrometry in the Southern Hemisphere, supporting the development of accurate celestial reference frames used in navigation and astronomical research.
The observatory was equipped with a 7-inch transit circle for positional measurements of stars and an 8-inch twin astrograph, which was used for photographic imaging of the night sky. Data from the facility contributed to USNO star catalogs, including the W2J00 reference catalogue.
Following the observatory’s closure in the mid-1990s, some of its components—such as the dome—were repurposed. According to New Zealand Geographic, these materials were provided to astronomer Gordon Hudson and contributed to the formation of the Phoenix Astronomical Society, which went on to establish public astronomy facilities in Wairarapa. |

The Ruth Crisp Telescope, a 16-inch (41 cm) Boller and Chivens Cassegrain reflector, was donated to the Carter Observatory in Wellington in 1968 by New Zealand philanthropist Ruth Crisp. In 1978, the telescope was relocated to the Black Birch Range to take advantage of darker skies and improved atmospheric conditions for astronomical observation.
The facility was established near the summit of the range, at approximately 1,600 metres elevation, adjacent to the U.S. Naval Observatory’s Black Birch station. It served as an outstation for Carter Observatory and was operated independently by New Zealand-based institutions.
The telescope was housed in a dedicated dome and used for general astronomical research and public education. It remained in use at Black Birch until the mid-1990s, when the dome and telescope were dismantled. The instrument was returned to Carter Observatory shortly thereafter. |

The JANZOS (Japan, Australia, New Zealand Observation of Supernova) project was an international collaboration established in 1987 to search for high-energy gamma rays from Supernova 1987A in the Large Magellanic Cloud.
Located near the summit of the Black Birch Range at approximately 1,600 metres elevation, the JANZOS observatory comprised 76 scintillation detectors arranged over five hectares, as well as three Cherenkov telescopes. The instruments were designed to detect cosmic rays and gamma rays in the energy range of 10¹² to 10¹⁵ electronvolts (eV).
Although no gamma-ray signal from SN1987A was detected, the observatory operated continuously until 1994 and contributed to the study of high-energy astrophysical phenomena. The project also helped establish long-term scientific cooperation between Japan and New Zealand. |

The following project is not located at Black Birch, but is historically linked through international collaborations formed there.
The Microlensing Observations in Astrophysics (MOA) project was established in 1994 as a follow-on to JANZOS. While based at the Mt John University Observatory in Canterbury, the collaboration built on the international relationships formed during the Black Birch era. MOA focuses on detecting extrasolar planets and dark matter through gravitational microlensing. The project has contributed to the discovery of multiple exoplanets, including a population of free-floating planetary-mass objects, and remains an active component of global microlensing surveys. |

Witney Rugby Football ClubBig text
1965-2025: 60th Anniversary
David 'Dabber' Willis
I was asked by Bob Fisk, Chairman of Witney Rugby Club if I could try and remember the year that the club was reformed back in the day. Being a club member for 60 years, I have a job trying to remember what day it is, never mind going back that far. I will do my best.
In 1965 I was talking to a friend of mine, Mick French, about West Oxfordshire Technical College rugby team. He asked me if I would 'like to give it a go', and see how I feel. The first game was away against Westminster College, Oxford. Having scored three tries and winning the lineouts I thought this is the game for me. He said that Smiths Industries have a team we play against. Frank Grant was the secretary. You will notice that some of my memories will appear again later on in this book.
I thought where do I start to find information from 60 years ago.
I wondered if Witney Library could help, just a shot in the dark really - but they came up trumps! I managed to find three reels of microfilm containing reports and results of rugby in Witney from the Witney Gazette. I managed to find sports columns from 1967-1970 and took pictures of all the write-ups of the teams we played against, including tries and scorers etc. The club members had been scratching their heads trying to remember who they had played in their first league game.
As I was filtering through the slides, I came across the one we were missing in the jigsaw puzzle. It reads as follows: Witney Rugby teams to amalgamate (original copy in photo book). The two principal rugby teams in Witney, West Oxfordshire Technical College and Smiths Industries have agreed to amalgamate and form a single Witney Rugby Club.
The new club will start its first full season in September of 1967 running two or three sides. It is hoped that in the seasons to come, enough support can be mustered from the youth in the area to start a colts side. In the photo book I have the original copy from Witney Gazette.
Another original copy in the photo album reads as follows: Witney teams unable to score in first game.
