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 Mike at February 17, 2006 6:34 AMJust a reminder to our Friday Ark (#74!) readers: I'll be hosting the 100th Carnival of the Cats this Sunday! (To celebrate such an auspicious occasion, I promise to have something special for just about everyone.) Now the current carnival is at Watermark, so don't miss that. But if you want to be included in the 100th CotC roundup, please use Ferdy's Carnival Submission Form or email your catblogging url to submissions (at) carnivalofthecats.com.
Plus I need your help. Can you give me a caption for Purry and Penny as Penny, 1 1/2, tries - unsuccessfully - to surprise her 16 yr old 'sister'?
Thanks, Lyn from Bloggin' Outloud

Posted by Catherine at February 17, 2006 7:57 PMI am surprised tht nobody this week posted any pictures of Quail, so I did it.
Posted by coturnix at February 17, 2006 10:36 PMHello!
We have another entry from Farmgirl Fare this week under "Other Vertebrates" (this time I'm sure--how embarrassing that I stuck the chickens in that catgetory yesterday : )
Snow Donkey By Choice

Have a great weekend!
Posted by farmgirl at February 18, 2006 7:09 AMWe're back with another pic from Farmgirl Fare under Other Vertebrates (uh, can't believe I stuck the chickens in that category yesterday instead of Birds, but I'm just a farmgirl, not a biologist : )

Posted by farmgirl at February 18, 2006 8:28 AMOh crap. It said there was an error the first time I left a comment but they both just popped up. Apologies for the duplicate.
