Note for Haloscan Users: Haloscan started (the end of July) rejecting trackbacks if they were submitted "too rapidly" by the same host. I don't know what the timer is but it is long enough so that it was very difficult to ping everyone that is using Haloscan for trackbacks. I'm sure that they are doing this to try to hold back the tide of trackback spam but it makes the service pretty useless for carnival type posts. Perhaps you can contact them and urge some different solution. Update: Typepad appears to be doing the same thing. Everytime I update the Ark it appears the timers are reset and the long list of MT autogenerated pings fail. Yecchhhh....

Posted by Lab Kat at October 21, 2005 6:40 AMHello dear modulator and friends,
This week's issue Birds in the News (#32), features an award-winning photograph of a peregrine falcon pursuing a large flock of Starlings. This photo, titled Sky Chase, was selected from more than 17,000 international wildlife photos to win the photographer, Italian Manuel Presti, the coveted title of Wildlife Photographer of the Year. The story is near the bottom of the page. Another intersting story provided by several readers discusses the Bald Eagle, Old Abe, who helped win the Civil War in the USA (includes actual news paper photo of Old Abe!). As usual, there are lots of international news stories and photos presented on this weekly link harvest that focuses on birds.

Posted by beau at October 21, 2005 7:55 AMCaught Smacky playing in a bag this week.
Posted by Brian at October 21, 2005 8:36 AMSoon after I posted the picture of Church and Snowball to the Ark, I got a call from the vet. Snowball has fallen to whatever evil virus had befallen her. She was a cute kitten. So, if possible, Snowball is in the In Memoriam category. :(
Posted by Josh Poulson at October 21, 2005 10:23 AMI'm participating this week focusing on dogs instead of cats, this time.
