_Photon-number-resolving detectors.
_Integrated Single Photon Detectors.

Single-photon sources:
_Spontaneous parametric downconversion and four-wave-mixing.
_NV centers.
_Quantum dots.
_On-demand single-photon sources.
_Integrated single-photon sources.
_Entangled photon-pair sources.

Metrology:
_Methods for characterizing single-photon detectors and sources.
_Quantum Sensing.
_Weak measurements.
_Novel measurement schemes

Applications of single photon technologies:
_Quantum communication.
_Optical quantum-state generation.
_Quantum random number generators.
_Biology/Chemistry.
_Telecom.
_Imaging and ranging.
_Spectroscopy.

That would be a nice place to be this time of year but boy would I be out of place.

Sometimes, that makes for the best adventures.

Happens but that also insures that nobody from the rest of the Gov't attends - we need a 6 month advance approval window to travel.

_Quantum communication.
_Optical quantum-state generation.
_Quantum random number generators.
_Biology/Chemistry.
_Telecom.
_Imaging and ranging.
_Spectroscopy.

Well, there are sessions I'd attend, but the rest of the meeting not so much.

My favorite Lee Turner masterpiece to date. I've coined the term "to Turnerize" meaning turn toy trains in a magical reality better than the real thing. Cheers! Photobucket is a pain now. Any better hosting sites?

Does anyone know how to lash up two Atlas diesels so they can run as one?

They are all better. Some of us use flickr:

Wayne, I e-mailed you the photos. Maybe you can help me out? Have you seen the trailer for the movie? Pretty cool! quantumrun356.com. And the Flicker images.

Flickr seems a poplar choice as a free option

This may contain useful information, so be very, very careful,

Wayne, all that comes up, is a message that the photos are private.

Also, do you use albums on Flickr? How do you do that?

Yes.
Click on "Albums"
Click on "New album"
Name "New album"
Drag photos from those you have already uploaded into your new album.

I've tried doing that and end up going in circles; can you create something more like Flickr for Dummies?

Select "Albums"


Select "New album"


Roger! You couldn't wait until I finished the "flicker albums for dummies" before you started complaining?
Next thing you know Mitch is going to post something just to get my goat.
P.S. Don't apologize Roger, it is a sign of weakness.
--Trump
P.P.S. I am having fun with you guys, don't take the above three lines seriously.

Name the new album


Drag a photo into the new album


Save the new album and photo(s)


Look at your new album and be proud of yourself

Wayne,
When I clicked on the photos I got smaller pictures. ?

To me it doesn't seem to be a weathered loco, just faded.
Lots of detail shown. That would probably be a loco from Tramps area, right?

That's better than what Roy gets.

There should be a "+" symbol in place of your cursor to make the smaller image larger Roger.

If not, there is another way to get the "big picture." Right Click the image and select, "Copy image address". Then paste the address into your URL box and press "Enter".

If that doesn't work, I am stumped.
