the SFMC European Frequency and Time Forum (EFTF) took place in Besancon, France. Organized by Don Sullivan and Fred Walls from NIST and Raymond Besson from ENSMM, this visionary meeting brought the two premier conferences related to time and frequency together for the first time. We would like to now welcome you to the NINTH Joint IFCS- EFTF Meeting here at the beautiful Caribe Royale Resort in Orlando Florida! Over the years this joint collaboration of the world’s leading experts in time and frequency has proved to be a platform for the advancement of science and the enrichment of international relationships in our field. We hope this year’s conference continues to build on the 20 year tradition and provides an enriching experience for all attendees in these beautiful surroundings. It is our privilege to chair the four committees in charge of the organization of this conference. As in previous years, there is a wide variety of Tutorial topics to choose from, four parallel sessions of oral presentations and two poster sessions. The registration includes a Gala Dinner to be held at the Kennedy Space Center directly under the Saturn V spacecraft and an interactive tour. There will be special events for Students including the Student Poster Competition, a Women in Engineering luncheon, and specialized exhibits. Following the conclusion of the conference, an optional tour will allow attendees the opportunity to glimpse one of the many wonderful natural and wild aspects of the area. We hope that this tour will constitute a starting point for discovering other treasures of Orlando and of Florida. Three outstanding Plenary talks will set the tone of the conference: “Next Generation Silicon Photonics”, by Michal Lipson (Columbia University), “Sensing with Squeezed and Entangled States of Light and Atoms”, by Morgan W. Mitchell (Institute of Photonic Science, Barcelona), and “The new definitions of the base units of the SI: using the rules of nature to create the rules of measurement” by Martin Milton (Director of the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures). Around twenty Invited Speakers and several hundreds of scientists will present their latest results and achievements in the various sub-topics of the “Time & Frequency” domain, thus stimulating discussions and exchanges within our international community. We would like to thank all authors and exhibitors for their participation in the success of the conference, and we acknowledge the contribution of all the members of both organizing committees and both technical program committees, in particular those in charge of the organization of entire sections or topics of the program. We would also like

    Research & Assessment Branch Special Series Chinese Foreign Policy: A Chronology April – June 2009 Catharine Melvin 10/03 Chinese Foreign Policy: A Chronology April – June 2009 Catharine Melvin 1 April 2009 President Hu Jintao met British Prime Minister Gordon Brown in London to discuss bilateral relations, on the sidelines of the G20 summit on the financial crisis, a follow- up to last November's G20 meeting in Washington. 1 April 2009 Hu Jintao and US President Barack Obama met in London to discuss Sino-US ties and the financial crisis. Hu said that China-US ties have got off to a good start since Obama took office: "I have been keeping close relations with Obama and the foreign ministers of both countries have exchanged visits in a short time." Hu invited Obama to visit China in the second half of this year, which Obama accepted. The two leaders decided to establish the "China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogue", and agreed that the first round would be held in Washington DC this summer. US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Chinese State Councillor Dai Bingguo will chair the 'Strategic Track' and US Secretary of the Treasury Timothy Geithner and Chinese Vice Premier Wang Qishan will chair the 'Economic Track' of the dialogue, each as special representatives of their respective presidents. Admiral Gary Roughead, US Chief of Naval Operations, will visit China upon invitation in April to attend events marking the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Navy of the Chinese People's Liberation Army. 1 April 2009 Hu Jintao and Russian President Dmitry Medvedev met in London to discuss Sino-Russian ties and the global financial crisis.
