This months quantum optics listings provide a new way of looking at familiar concepts: Thekkadath et al. used simple ideas from quantum optics to devise a powerful state engineering tool; Shringarpure and Franson came up with a new method of generating photon added states without actually adding a photon; and Lachman and Filip proposed a new set of criteria that good single photon sources must obey.
