Friday Ark #59 27 comments


We’ll post links to sites that have Friday (plus or minus a few days) photos of their chosen animals (photoshops at our discretion and humans only in supporting roles). Watch the Exception category for rocks, beer, coffee cups, and….?

Alert: Comments do not seem to be posting below but we are getting notifications of your comments. Feel free to use one of the other options if you want some additional certainty that we have received notification. We do not mind the duplications. We aren’t going to research this problem until we are caught up with all the pending boardings in a few hours.

We will add your post to the list if you do one of the following:

  • Leave a comment or trackback to this post,
  • Use the Carnival Submission Form,
  • Email Modulator or
  • Our extensive staff finds it during our weekly search of the web

Of course, if our staff goes on strike then we will link only those posts someone tells us about.
Visit each border and come back regularly Friday-Sunday to visit new boarders. And do link to the Friday Ark whether you use trackbacks or not.

New: All Ark boarders are invited to shout out at the Friday Ark Frapper Map.
Dog folks:
remember to submit your links to the Carnival of the Dogs hosted by Mickey’s Musings.

Cat folks:
remember to submit your links to the Carnival of the Cats which goes up every Sunday and the 85th edition will be hosted this week by Pages Turned. There are more weekly cats at eatstuff’s Weekend Cat Blogging which has many participants who may not be familiar to Ark or Carnival participants.

  • New: Laurence has started a The Catbloggers Frappr Map. Go shout out!
  • Bird folks: I and the Bird: A Blog Carnival for Bird Lovers is published every 2 weeks. Send your links for the 10th edition to Mike. The 9th edition is up and hosted by the Living the Scientific Lige.
    New for the spineless: Circus of the Spineless. A monthly celebration of Insects, Arachnids, Molluscs, Crustaceans, Worms and most anything else that wiggles. The first edition is up at Milk River Blog.
    Arkive editions of the Friday Ark.
    Update (10:23 ET): Updates will be slow and we will not be caught up until after 2:00 PM Eastern Time. Sorry for the delays today…

    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….

      Thalia’s Beautiful Eyes

      Thalia has beautiful blue eyes the likes of which are beyond the capabilities of my camera. Last night she was resting on the blue comforter, and it really brought out those eyes. Even though the camera doesn’t do them justice,…

      For Halloween, we have the attacking kittens: Snowball slays a dress. Church suppresses a twine riot. After Halloween, however, the two were much more mellow. Later we’ll talk about how Mom laced their scratching post with catnip……

      Return of Friday Rock Blogging: Titan

      This picture was taken by the Huygens probe, just after it landed on Saturn’s moon Titan. Lest you think I’m somehow on top of things, let me note that it was released last January – but that old-fashioned sepia tone comes from Titan’s thick hydrocar…

      Orange Cats

      Everyone knows that orange cats rule. Just ask an orange cat. Or a ginger cat, a marmalade cat, a tangerine cat, a red cat. But there may be some things you don’t know about these kingly cats. For example, did you know that most orange cats are male? …

      Kitties All Gone

      That’s what I found when I came home this morning, not one cat. Did the kitties sneak by me fast?
      No not a kitty in the grass.
      Did the kitties run away far?
      No, not a kitty by the car.
      Did the kitties want to explore?
      There were no ki…

      Is it a shoe box…? Or is it a Lou box? Someone looks mighty darn comfortable… even if his preferred nap spot looks disconcertingly like a coffin. “Doesn’t he look natural?” Don’t miss the Friday Ark at the Modulator, and of course the Carnival of t…
