it's soV.19 No.7 | 2/18/2010 The Alibi Air Hockey Table Has Been GrabbedThis week, we ran an Alibi classified ad offering up our the air hockey table to the first person who could haul it away. We got about a zillion calls and now it's gone. Sorry to everyone who didn't get here first. It was really huge and took up our whole back room, so it's kind of nice to have it gone. Our back room was packed with so much junk you could barely move in there, much less play air hockey.

When Heidi Armstrong was in fourth grade she had somebody special to present for show and tell: her aunt.
Olympic gold medalist skier Debbie Armstrong made quite an impression on the boys and girls that day at Upper Blue Elementary in Breckenridge, Colo.
"She brought her little postcards and autographed them for all of my classmates," recalled Heidi, who is now a junior on the nationally ranked ski-racing team at Rocky Mountain College. "She brought her medal and her video.
"One of my classmates — she was on the ski team with me — almost passed out. She wouldn't even talk to her. She was so nervous."
These days, Heidi, 21, is appreciative of the encouragement, knowledge and inspiration she has received over the years from her aunt, who captured the gold medal with a thrilling victory in the giant slalom at the 1984 Winter Games in Sarajevo, Yugoslavia.
"I can't remember how old I was, but the first time I saw her medal we were visiting her in New Mexico where she was going to school," Heidi said. "I think she was babysitting me and my little brother. We got to see her medal and hold it and everything. I still remember that."
Debbie, who grew up skiing and racing at the Alpental Ski Resort in Washington state, was 20 when she became the first U.S. woman in 12 years to win the gold in alpine skiing at the Olympics.
Her feat — accomplished years before Heidi was born — landed Debbie's smiling face on the cover of Sports Illustrated and earned her the title "Queen Of The Mountain."
"I've seen her Sports Illustrated and all that," Heidi said. "My grandparents have pretty much told me everything about it. At our family reunions, I've watched her winning run video. She always brings her medal."
Heidi competes in the slalom and giant slalom for the Battlin' Bears. She went to nationals last winter in Sunday River, Maine, where the Rocky women placed sixth as a team.
She has been working harder on her starts and is looking to go faster this season as the Bears set their sights on regionals at Red Lodge Mountain Feb. 21-23 and the United States Collegiate Ski Association national championships in Sun Valley, Idaho, March 6-9.
"She's not only just a gold medalist, she's a ski instructor," Heidi said of her aunt, who now lives in Steamboat Springs, Colo. "She really knows what she's talking about. She's really helped me."
Heidi, who grew up in Breckenridge, also bears a strong resemblance to her aunt.
"People say I look more like her than my parents," Heidi said with a laugh. "Looking at pictures when she was growing up and when I was growing up, we're very similar."
When it comes to skiing, Heidi has been racing since she was eight years old, and is a longtime member of Team Breckenridge.
"My whole family skis," Heidi said. "My grandparents have been ski instructors forever. My dad is the head coach of my ski team at home. Now Debbie is the head coach of her team in Steamboat Springs. My brother ski races.
"For Christmas every year, we all go skiing together. For Thanksgiving, we ski. That's our family thing. That's what we do."
When Debbie won at the Olympics, she mentioned in news stories that she kept reminding herself in the starting gate to "have fun."
As a youngster, Heidi said she was "hesitant and scared" when it came to careening down the steep slopes.
She said that Debbie, now 49, helped her get over her fright and has had "quite a bit" of influence on her throughout her years of racing through courses.
"She always said 'you shouldn't be scared,' " Heidi said. " 'It's OK to be nervous, but it's not OK to be scared.' "
Debbie, who also placed 13th in the GS at the 1988 Olympics in Calgary before retiring as a racer, continued to offer her expertise on the mental and technical aspects of skiing over the years.
"We've sat at my house and gone over videos for hours, with both her and my dad (Olin) sitting there analyzing me," Heidi said.
A psychology major at Rocky, Heidi said she wants to eventually become a sports psychologist. "Debbie talks to me about that a lot," she said.
Heidi, who went to school for a year in Sweden before transferring to Rocky, said she heard about the school and its successful ski-racing program from a couple of Summit High School classmates — Bobby Hillyer and Alex Guras — who had competed in the past for coach Jerry Wolf and the Bears.
"I'm glad I'm here," she said.
While the instruction and support from her aunt has been invaluable, there are other privileges that come along with having an Olympic gold medalist in the family.
Heidi said as a teenager she got to ski down a run — called Debbie's Gold — with her father and mother, Asa, at Alpental in Washington's Snoqualmie Pass.
That's where Debbie grew up racing — and the popular intermediate run is a salute to her Olympic glory.
The ski area also has a high-speed quad chairlift named "Armstrong's Express."
"It was cool skiing on a run that was kind of my family's run," Heidi said. "It was fun. It was kind of intimidating, though, because it's a steep run."
NOTES: Heidi's 19-year-old brother, Max, is a freshman member of the ski-racing team at Sierra Nevada College, located in Incline Village, Nev. The men and women from Rocky and SNC are rivals on the slopes. ... Rocky's men are ranked No. 1 nationally this week, while the women are No. 3.

August 1, 2014
Congressman Tom McClintock today introduced HR 5397, adding taxpayer protections and a guaranteed right of public use to previous proposals to expand the boundaries of Yosemite National Park.
"The proposed addition to the park offers spectacular views from Henness Ridge and still has remnants of timber roads that could be adapted for hiking, riding, mountain biking, and other recreational pursuits," said McClintock. "In acquiring this land, it is important that the public have an explicit guarantee of access, that the land be properly managed and that taxpayers be protected from excessive costs. In my discussions with the Natural Resources Committee, it has been clear that a successful bill must include these principles."
* HR 5397protects taxpayers by assuring that the land is donated to the park. (The acquisition consists of two parcels. One was acquired many years ago by investors who later discovered they cannot develop the land; the other by the Pacific Forest Trust for the explicit purpose of public use. The public should not pay top dollar to bail out bad real estate decisions or for property already acquired for public use).
* HR 5397 protects property owners by forbidding eminent domain from being exercised in the acquisition of the land or restricting the use of adjacent private property.
* HR 5397 protects park users by explicitly guaranteeing the public the right to use this parcel for recreational activities allowed at Yosemite National Park at the time of the acquisition. (Recent attempts to restrict traditional activities like horseback riding, mountain biking and camping make this provision critical for long-term public use of this land).
* HR 5397assures proper management of the land by requiring that it be treated for fuels reduction within a year of acquisition and frees up a like amount of public land held elsewhere in the country by the Department of the Interior. (The Subcommittee on Public Lands and Environmental Regulation has received hours of testimony on the poor management of public lands by the Department. This provision assures that acquisition of this new parcel will not add further to the problem).
"HR 5397 meets the concerns heard by the House Subcommittee on Public Lands and Environmental Regulation over land management issues involving the Department of Interior," said Chairman Rob Bishop. "This is exactly the kind of innovative approach toward which our subcommittee has worked, and I commend the author for collaborating closely with it on developing this measure."

When Vaupel asked his wife about the calls, he says, she told him that he'd better not give her any grief because all she had to do was make one phone call, and his ass would be on a plane back to Australia. (Asked for an interview, Schwab told Westword, "You really cannot call me; it's not wise," and then hung up.)
In May, Vaupel was stopped by the cops again, this time for driving under restraint, fictitious plates and failure to provide proof of insurance for his Ford Bronco. He told police that he had insurance on the couple's other car, a Cadillac, and thought it applied to the truck as well.
On June 13, 2004, it was Schwab who called the cops for a domestic disturbance. Vaupel was downstairs reading to his son when he heard a racket -- his wife throwing stuff around to make her call sound legit to the 911 operator, he says. When Jeffco deputies arrived, the baby was calm in Vaupel's arms. They left the house without making an arrest, but Schwab ran out after them. Then one of the officers followed her into the basement, where she showed the officer a blank Australian driver's license with a picture of Vaupel, as well as another license with a picture of someone else. Schwab told the deputies that Vaupel was selling fake Aussie licenses, birth certificates and business-registration cards, making up to $2,000 per falsified document. The deputies found a high-tech printer alongside the computer, as well as a laminator.
Vaupel told the deputies that he was just "playing around," and that it wasn't illegal to make fake documents in his homeland, just illegal to use them. They didn't buy it. Vaupel was taken into custody in Jefferson County, where he was charged with two felony counts of forgery, one felony possession of forgery devices, misdemeanor harassment and misdemeanor menacing.
When he bonded out two weeks later, his wife wouldn't let him back into the house. He moved in with a friend.
On July 2, Vaupel heard that his wife would be appearing in a Jeffco courtroom. She wanted to move to Texas with her son but would need permission to leave the state because of her deferred sentence. Vaupel got to the courthouse as fast as he could, but he was too late: Schwab had already gotten permission to leave.
Vaupel said the judge told him that the only thing he could do to try to stop her was file for a legal separation, which would make his wife subject to custody arrangements. Vaupel says he still thought they could reconcile, but he filed for separation anyway.
When he got back to his friend's house, the police were waiting for him: Schwab had called in a report that he'd been harassing her that morning. Vaupel told the cops that it was a lie, that if they called the courthouse, they would find out that he'd been there all the time. The deputies did, and Vaupel's alibi checked out.
When the deputies confronted Schwab about her call, she changed her story. She was confused, she said. "I don't know, I'm sorry," Schwab told the officers.
Vaupel had neighbors keeping an eye on the house. A friend told him that both a white BMW and a Toyota Land Cruiser had been parking there overnight. Another friend ran the plates for Vaupel. Both were listed as belonging to Mario Ortiz, district director of the Denver office of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. Vaupel hired a private investigator to get pictures of his wife and Ortiz.
Vaupel would soon see that name again. Later that month he learned that his wife had revoked her sponsorship of his petition to become a permanent U.S. resident. The revocation was confirmed with a letter to Schwab signed by Mario Ortiz.
In October 2004, Vaupel was back at the Jeffco courthouse, this time for a hearing on the June harassment, menacing and phony-document charges.
That's when his public defender, David Jones, told Vaupel that federal agents were there to take him into custody. "All of a sudden, and this is rare, you show up for court, your client is out on bond, and federal agents are waiting in the courtroom," Jones says. "Something was expedited. Those orders came down really fast."
The next day, at the federal immigration detention facility in Aurora, Vaupel received a formal deportation order. Because of his illegal status, he was facing an expedited removal and wouldn't even have a deportation hearing before a judge.
But then Vaupel's immigration attorneys went to the media with photos of Schwab and Ortiz, pitching the story of an immigration honcho deporting a man while having an affair with the man's estranged wife. Denver television picked up the story, as did newspapers here and in Texas and Australia.
Ortiz was "under federal investigation for allegedly having a relationship with the estranged wife of a man his agency is seeking to deport," the Rocky Mountain News reported on October 23, 2004.
In the midst of the media furor, Vaupel filed for a visa reserved for victims of domestic violence at the hands of U.S. citizens. "Stacy has punched me in the face, slapped me, shoved me, thrown objects at me and falsely imprisoned me," he said. "She has called me a plethora of abusive names, including, but not limited to: fucking dickhead, asshole, moron, stupid, deranged and demented, and fucking loser."

Hi -
We just got our bathroom remodeled and the vanity drain does not evacuate the water quickly enough, to the point that there is standing water that fills the basin if the faucet is on for more than a few seconds. I'm pretty sure the problem is that the vent hole in the sink isn't tied to the drain directly (it just opens to the cabinet below), thus resulting in the slow evacuation of water. I'll post a pic soon to better clarify, but are their drains I can get and install that either include a ventilation mechanism or something to connect the exposed vent hole in the sink to the drain? |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by lazypup (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Tue, Sep 18, 12 at 14:58
The upper hole in the sink is not a vent,,,it is solely an overflow, however, it must also be connected to the drain before the P-trap. The reduced flow from your sink is most likely a result of the popup stopper not being adjusted correctly. |
Hi lazypup, thanks for your response. Yes it's an overflow, but it is not tied to the drain in any way; it just opens to the vanity cabinet below - which would not be good. When I look at my other sinks in the house (with overflows) it's clear that they are tied to the drain so that if water spills into the overflow, it falls into a cavity or spillway connected directly to the drain. Conversely, it seems that this provides ventilation for the drain to evacuate water quickly. I've already adjusted the drain stopper several times, with no positive results. |
Please disregard my 10:36 response (9/29). I went back up and looked at it and realized that the drain hole of course does not spill into the vanity cabinet, but works as it should. So maybe i should try fiddling with the drain stopper a bit more. Also, i'm wondering if the configuration of the p trap is hampering the flow of water. See attached pic. Sorry for the confusion and thanks for your response. |

BURKESVILLE, Ky. — In southern Kentucky, where children get their first guns even before they start first grade, Stephanie Sparks paid little attention as her 5-year-old son, Kristian, played with the rifle he was given last year. Then, as she stepped onto the front porch while cleaning the kitchen, "she heard the gun go off," a coroner said. ...

The majority of the world's auditing services are performed by only four accounting firms.
Known as the 'Big 4', these firms completely dominate the industry, auditing more than 80 percent of all US public companies.
In addition, these mammoth organizations advise on tax and offer a wide range of management and assurance services.
Who Are The Big 4 Accounting Firms?
Although usually identified as single companies, each one of the Big 4 Accounting Firms is actually a network of independent corporations who have entered into agreements with one another to set quality standards and share a common name.
1. Deloitte LLP
Deloitte LLP
30 Rockefeller Plaza
New York, NY 10112
Phone: (212) 489-1600
Fax: (212) 489-1687
Deloitte LLP is the number one firm in the United States. The company began as the separate companies of William Deloitte, Charles Haskins, Elijah Sells, and George Touche. The three companies eventually merged to become Deloitte & Touche. Today the company is known primarily as Deloitte LLP, and has four subsidiaries: Deloitte & Touche LLP, Deloitte Consulting LLP, Deloitte Financial Advisory Services LLP and Deloitte Tax LLP.
Over time the company has merged with other companies or bought them out completely and created subsidiaries to become one of the biggest firms in the world. The company is one consistently voted as one of the best employers to work for by Fortune Magazine. They hire many of their entry-level employees through universities where they have programs.
Deloitte University
In 2012 the company built Deloitte University to train its current and future employees. They also offer internships and training seminars at the University.
They are hoping to reach out to broader spectrum of people who are looking to work in the industry. Because the company has 4 subsidiaries, they offer a wide range of employment opportunities. A prospective employee can work in categories such as consulting, financial advisory services, taxes, growth enterprise, and many more.
Deloitte Recruiting
Deloitte has several recruiting teams that visit college campuses across the country, hoping to recruit those who have taken classes involved in their partnership program. Some of the universities that have these programs are Columbia Business School and Duke University.
However, there are more than 20 schools that offer Deloitte accounting curriculum. Deloitte and its subsidiaries have more than 600 offices in more than 150 countries. Including offices in just about every US state, from California to Florida.
2. PricewaterhouseCoopers
PwC, LLP
300 Madison Avenue
New York, NY 10017
Phone: (646) 471-4000
Fax: (646) 471-4444
PWC (PricewaterhouseCoopers) is ranked as the number two accounting firm in the United States. The company founded by Samuel Lowell Price began in London 1849.
The company grew over the years, merging with Holyland and Waterhouse, then a final merger game in 1998 when Price Waterhouse and Coopers & Lybrand came together to create PricewaterhouseCoopers. The firm went on to shorten its brand name to PwC in 2010, however PricewaterhouseCoopers remains as the full legal name of the organization and is the name that is used by PwC firms to sign company audits.
PwC Training Opportunities
Like Deloitte, PwC has seminars and training programs for its current and prospective employees. The difference is that their program is online, free, and available to the public. Those who are looking to earn CPE credits (Continuing Professional Education) can do so on the PwC Open University website.
Learn From Home
In this respect, PwC might have a leg up on their competition because people can access the material right from their home and it doesn't cost them anything. The company also has campus events at colleges such as Virginia Tech throughout the year.
PwC offers a plethora of services to their clients including Audit & Assurance, consulting, IFRS reporting, tax services, and others. This is great for current and potential employees of the company because it gives a wide range of areas they can specialize in. Working for PwC means that you will work in one of the most diverse environments, they are ranked number two in Diversity Inc. magazine out of 50 companies.
3. Ernst & Young
5 Times Square
New York, NY 10036-6530
Phone: (212) 773-3000
Fax: (212) 773-6350
Ernst & Young is rated number three out of the top 100 accounting firms in the United States. The firm was formed by the merger of two companies, Arthur Young & company and Ernst & Ernst. Interestingly enough Arthur Young and Alwen Ernst never met in life.
Their companies merged in 1989 to form Ernst & Young, long after the two had passed away. Both men opened their original firms with their brothers, and passed away within days of each other.
Today this big 4 firm stands tall and is located in more than 150 countries with more than 700 offices. They offer a plethora of services such as assurance, taxes, advisement, transactions, and many more. Offering such a wide range of services allows the company to cater to a very diverse group of employees.
EY Recognized for Diversity
Ernst & Young are rated number four in DiversityInc Magazine's top 50 places to work for diversity. Having so many areas of interest, anyone in the accounting trade is sure to find a position that suites their specialization. Ernst & Young offers training programs online and on the job, however the materials and class resources are not available to the public.
This could be detrimental to the company in the future as PwC offers all of their materials and even classes online for free and to the general public.
Like Deloitte & PwC, Ernst & Young does hold college recruiting events across the country every year where they hire in entry-level associates.
345 Park Avenue
New York, NY 10154-0102
Phone: (212) 758-9700
Fax: (212) 758-9819
KPMG is the number four firm of the big four with more than 670 offices located in over 150 countries. The firm was originally established in 1911 when William Barclay Peat & co. merged with Marwick Mitchell & Co. to form Peat Marwick.
In 1987 the firm merged with KMG to form what is now known as KPMG. The firm changed their name a few times over the years but ultimately decided to stick with KPMG.
The firm has been consistently voted as one of the best places to work by DiversityInc Magazine and currently holds the number 23 spot on the list. Which means it hosts a very culturally diverse work environment and works with companies that are not yet as successful by hiring them for services and goods.
KPMG offers three main services. These include audits, advisory services, and taxes. However, these three services can be broken down in many sub-services making KPMG a full-service firm.
Training Offered by KPMG
KPMG has a website that offers free webcasts, self-education, and other resources for those who wish to learn online. Utilizing these tools allows college students and current professionals to earn CPE's. In addition, to online tools, the firm also offers in person classes, seminars, and symposiums that may also offer CPE's.
Like the other big three big 4 accounting firms, KPMG does much of its recruiting on college campuses, seeking out the best and brightest to add to their big 4 firm.
The History of The Big 4 Accounting Firms
Even the smallest of the Big 4 is several times the size of the 5th largest firm and industry experts believe it is unlikely that any existing corporation will ever be able to match the size of the major players.
This is partly due to the fact that, until the late 1980s the major accounting firms were known as the Big 8 and included the likes of Coopers & Lybrand, Ernst & Whinney, Deloitte Haskins & Sells, Arthur Andersen, Price Waterhouse and Touche Ross.
In 1989 the Big 8 became the Big 6 following the merger of Ernst & Whinney with Arthur Young to form Ernst & Young, closely followed by the merger of Deloitte, Haskins & Sells with Touche Ross.
In July 1998, Price Waterhouse merged with Coopers & Lybrand to form PricewaterhouseCoopers, further reducing number of market leaders to five.
The Financial Collapse
The last major change to the fortunes of the global accounting firms followed the collapse of the Enron corporation which was audited by Arthur Anderson.
In the aftermath of the collapse, the accounts company was found guilty of criminal charges relating to its business practices. Although the conviction was eventually overturned, the damage to its reputation meant Arthur Andersen was unable to recover and eventually sold most of its business to members of what would come to be known as the Big 4.
Big companies see it as a mark of prestige to have their audits carried by a member of the Big 4, even though the cost of such a service may be significantly higher than what would be charged by a smaller firm carrying out exactly the same work.
This same notion of prestige also applies to all those working for the Big 4. New graduates looking for careers in the financial services industry face fierce competition for the places that are made available each year, knowing that spending time with one of the Big 4 is the equivalent of obtaining a degree from an Ivy League university and will put them on the fast track to success.

Yahoo! has landed a deal with Telefonica Espana under which the internet company will power its mobile internet search experience and sponsored search advertising on Spanish telecommunications network operator's emocion portal.
Yahoo! said that its mobile search service provides Telefonica customers in Spain with relevant information on any topic from news, financial information, weather conditions, Flickr photos, and travel information, to websites, integrated information from Wikipedia and Yahoo! Answers, and more.
In addition, Yahoo! will also display relevant ringtones, wallpapers, games, and other content from the emocion portal within the search results. Telefonica Espana and Yahoo! will include sponsored search listings within the emocion portal.
The partnership builds on the mobile search agreement with O2 Germany launched in November 2009, as well as the agreement signed in October 2007 to provide consumers with Yahoo! as the primary search service on Telefonica's mobile portals in 15 European and Latin American countries.
Rich Riley, senior vice president of Yahoo! Europe, said: This is an important milestone as we extend our relationship with Telefonica and offer consumers across Spain with an engaging mobile search experience that enables them to discover their world and the world around them.
"Together, Telefonica and Yahoo! are enhancing the mobile Internet experience for consumers, while creating scale for advertisers, enabling them to reach the rapidly growing audience of mobile consumers."

Bangladesh is making diplomatic efforts to calm the tension sparked by Myanmar's reported military build-up on the border. Sources told The Hindu that Dhaka had initiated parleys with Yangon. Home Secretary Abdus Sobhan Sikder said: "Guards are supposed to be on both sides of the border.
But if a country brings in its Army on the border, it triggers tension." He said the Myanmar authorities informed Bangladesh that their military personnel visited the border only to oversee various activities by Nasaka, the Myanmarese border force.However, The Daily Star newspaper, quoting the Foreign and Home Ministry sources, said Bangladesh was also negotiating with China to resolve the crisis.
It is learnt that Director-General of Bangladesh Rifles (BDR) Major-General Mainul Islam is likely to visit Myanmar. The government is also holding dialogue with the United Nation High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to persuade Yangon not to push more Rohingya refugees across the border. Newspapers said the Yangon authorities gathered over 10,000 Rohingyas at the border and tried to push them into Bangladesh.
While the major media outlets continue to report heavy Army mobilisation by Myanmar, Foreign Minister Dipu Moni termed it a routine exercise.Major Dhaka newspapers said Yangon had brought in tanks, artillery and warships indicating a major conflict. They said its forces were repeatedly trying to push Rohingyas into Bangladesh.
The Bangladesh Rifles have been kept on high alert along the southeast frontier.Officials said over 3,000 border guards were deployed to reinforce BDR positions at Cox's Bazaar-Teknaf fronts along the 271 km. frontier with Myanmar.
Yangon has reportedly begun to erect barbed-wire fences inside its territory under military cover. BDR also set up a control room at Cox's Bazaar to monitor the situation. On Friday, a Bangladesh Foreign Ministry statement said Myanmar rejected the reports of military build-up. Foreign Minister Nyan Win made the claim after Mr. Moni met him on the sidelines of a conference in Colombo. Mr. Nyan also called the action on the frontier a "routine exercise."
The BDR, meanwhile, identified the St. Martin's Island as the probable main target of Myanmar and advised the government to strengthen its defence. The country's lone coral island and the main attraction for tourists is under the jurisdiction of the Coast Guard. Located in a mineral-rich region in the Bay of Bengal it is about eight km. west of the northwest coast of Myanmar.Meanwhile, media reports have suggested that Army Chief Lt. Gen. Abdul Mubin visited the border in Bandarban district.

html code inside <textarea>
How do i make sure that the literal string is produced when retrieving the value from the textarea?
If a user types html code inside the textarea box, the problem is that it doesn't display the literal string, rather, the html code.
If i use the [xmp]tags, the problem is , it displays it in a font which is out of place with the [div] setting used.

Well, I guess I can finally put away my hand mirror. My wrist was starting cramp up and I think I threw out my back. See, I've spent the last 36 or so hours looking for my APRMT — that stands for Anti-Pregnancy Rape Mechanism Thingmajig — which Rep. Todd Akin said kicks in when a woman is "legitimately" raped in order to prevent pregnancy. But I guess, 36 hours later, he's finally admitting rape can result for pregnancy and the APRMT doesn't exist? Well, what took him so long? I mean, I know yesterday he clarified that he thinks rape is terrible. (How kind of him.) But it wasn't until the message above, in which he asks for forgiveness, that he actually admits that the information he presented as FACT — that doctors had told him "the female body has ways to try to shut the whole thing down" — is actually not true. Thanks for getting around to it, Rep. Akin. I know you're busy! Keep reading »

Would you be willing to answer a few brief questions about PlayStation Forums?
I've been leveling up my familiars and hoping to gain max level on each tier (form) before I metamorphize them. But how do I know when they reach their max levels? Does it show up in their stats sheet? So far I have familiars in tier 1 that are around level 25-28.
From what I remember, Ni no Kuni actually informs you on the status screen (at the end of each battle) when your familiar is ready to rank up. If you aren't paying attention to the level up page at the close of each battle, you can also manually shift focus to the screen where you can feed your familiars. You should see a blue box next to the familiars that are ready to metamorphose, thus indicating when their status is ready. It's a good idea to check on that every once in a while in case you have been missing out.
Yeah I've noticed that familiars have the ready to "metamorphose" blue box. But doesn't that indicate that they are at their max level at that certain tier, just being "ready to metamorphose".
You're right though. At the end of the battle, they notify you that they've reached their max levels. I guess that's the only way to determine it eh.
From what I understand of Ni no Kuni, there's only so much you can do in the way of metamorphosing a familiar. There's the initial phase, and then there's the third phase. After that, I believe there's one more. The gems you get for evolving the familiars note one is for the second change, then there's another for the final transformation. And with the jumbo gems, I believe that using one of those goes with the very last time. At least that's how I went about taking care of my familiars.

Relatively 'New' Genes Can Quickly Become Essential To Life
Brett Smith for redOrbit.com – Your Universe Online
Some genes within an organism´s DNA have been there for a billion years and can be traced back through earlier species, while other genes are newly acquired and only a few million years old.
According to a new report in the journal Science, these newly acquired genes can quickly become a major part of an organism´s genetic machinery and even essential for life. In the study, a team of American and German researchers were able to identify a relatively new fruit fly gene that has acquired a job so important that the flies can't live without it.
"The majority of these genes are not going to acquire essential functions" said study co-author Barbara Mellone, and assistant professor of molecular and cell biology at the University of Connecticut. "But the interaction network is completely rewired for this gene."
Along with colleagues at the University of Washington, the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, and the University of Munich, Mellone was able to trace the evolutionary steps of this particular gene from geneticists´ most beloved fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. The gene plays a crucial role in splitting up genetic material when cells divide, a process known as chromosome segregation.
"The genus Drosophila offers an unprecedented system in which to study gene evolution because of the detailed evolutionary and genomic data available," Mellone said. "Learning about how new genes acquire new functions is crucial to understanding how whole genomes undergo functional innovation, which is what is needed for new traits to appear in populations that natural selection can act upon."
The gene under scrutiny, which researchers have dubbed Umbrea, is known to play a role in making chromosome segregation happen correctly. While the gene is present in other species of fruit fly, it is not essential in all of them.
To understand how this works, the researchers conducted a sequencing analysis and recorded video of fruit fly cells without Umbrea dividing under a microscope. They found that Umbrea was lost in some of the species, but in Drosophila melanogaster, cells without it failed to separate chromosomes properly and were unable to survive, thus verifying its crucial role in species propagation.
They also found that several stepwise evolutionary changes have led to Umbrea's essentialness. After losing its previous, nonessential function, the protein signaling network was completely rewired, resulting in new sections of code that allowed it to relocate to the centromere, a crucial structure during cell division.
"This gene emerged and wasn't going either way, toward or away from essential function," Mellone said. "Then something happened elsewhere to help make it essential."
The researchers said their findings support the notion that keeping some non-essential genes around might benefit organisms in the long run. These genes appear to be able to acquire new functions under certain conditions.
"Centromere proteins experience rapid evolution in many organisms, including humans, in a constant 'arms race' that exists to maintain the equal segregation of genetic traits," Mellone said.
The scientists suggested that this could shift the way scientists look at other biological processes that may call for genetic innovation to adjust to new challenges.

Anyone hoping the EIA's revision to its natural gas production survey methodology would be bullish for prices – or bearish for the future of shale gas – was very likely disappointed:
As Stephen Schork writes:
Analysts expected these revisions to be bullish. While January did see a small 0.6 Bcf/d revision lower, production in February still rose 1.6%. What's more, assumptions about the glut of shale plays were vindicated – Louisiana saw a 5.7% increase, the largest of any state, which the DOE placed on expansion in the Haynesville shale.
Meanwhile the historical revisions were indeed significant, as promised:
The effect wasn't contained to the US gas markets, either. Utilyx noted that UK prices were also affected:
Gas prompt and curve contracts traded lower day-on-day, as a collapse in the US Henry Hub prices caused a massive sell-off in the UK NBP. At 15:30 US gas storage data was published and showed a greater than forecast build in stocks, that caused NYMEX Henry Hub to fell with a 6.5 percent decrease in the front month contract.

I also take issue with the "You can upgrade a PC" argument. With the release of the Mac Pro, you can upgrade a Mac just as easily as a Dell. But then they would probably argue "But there's more games for a PC!" It never ends.
