On my personal page the certificate only goes up to 37 markers, are they planning on a 67 marker certificate yet?
I read just recently that the 67-marker certificates weren't available yet, but they would be soon.

Below the listing of threads in the Batch Calendar forum, there's a Display Options box. You'll see "From the" and then a pull-down menu with a timeframe. Mine is set to 45 days and the Batch 154 thread is the last one on the page. You probably have yours set to "Last Month" or an even shorter timeframe. The last post in the Batch 154 thread was 8/17/06, about 6 weeks ago.
I believe I read that they only send a certificate for the first test that you order through them, and if you wish to have a certificate for an upgrade, you need to order that separately. But I would suggest contacting them to confirm, as I don't remember where I read this information (may have been here on the boards).

I did my first 12 markers through the Genographic Project so I didn't get a certificate from FTDNA. I upgraded to 67 markers and did not get one but I did have HVR1 & 2 done in one shot and I received a certificate for that. On my personal page the certificate only goes up to 37 markers, are they planning on a 67 marker certificate yet?

Yes, but I assumed that if the 'first test' is a combination like YDNA67+mtDNAplus, they would send both certificates. I will probably have to contact FTDNA to clarify.
That's my understanding. Let us know when you get clarification from FTDNA.

So aren't we supposed to get certificates from FTDNA with our yDNA test results? My relatives and I have gotten certificates for our mtDNA results, and I even got one for my H subclade test, but we have gotten no certificates for yDNA. Is this because FTDNA is still composing a 67-marker certificate, and will send us one when they are ready?
FTDNA released (partial) results from some R1b individuals last week. Otherwise, I have seen no recent deepSNP results at all in my project. Many deepSNP tests are now overdue. I don't mean individual failed tests but entire test suites that should have been run by now.
Here are all the overdue deepSNP tests in the Polish project:
NO RESULTS RELEASED AT ALL
Batch 137: R1a
Batch 144: R1a
Batch 161: I, J
PARTIAL RESULTS RELEASED
Batch 141: R1a
Batch 145: R1b
Batch 151: J
Batch 155: G, R1b
Batch 160: G
And of course, more will come due in the next few weeks, in batches 162 and 164.
The caverns are great place to go when the heat is on.
Very true. It was about 50-55 degrees F down there. When we got out we went and did the maze, though, where it was 90+. It was a beautiful day, with blue skies and plenty of sun, so it was great.
I enjoyed the Frontier Culture Museum best of everything I saw on that little trip. It was like stepping back in time.
Thursday and Friday my family and I took a little trip here in our home state. We visited the Luray Caverns, the American Frontier Culture Museum, and Natural Bridge.
It was fun.
The Frontier Culture Museum was especially cool. It is a large, open site with several working farms from the period from 1690 through the 1850s. If you want to see how your ancestors actually lived, I highly recommend it.
