Carnival of the Trackbacks IX (Wizbang)

Reader recommended stories for Saturday April 30, 2005:

Welcome to Week 9 of the Carnival of the Trackbacks, an automated linkfest that Wizbang readers populate with links to must read material for the day.

If there's something you feel is worthy of being more widely read, submit it as a trackback to this post. Regular readers and commenters can submit blog posts or news stories. If you're not a blogger or your blog software doesn't provide that capability, you can use the Wizbang Trackback tool. You'll need the trackback ID (TrackBack URL) for this entry:

http://wizbangblog.com/cgi-bin/mt-tb.cgi/5828
(also listed in the trackback popup screen - click the paw-print icon)

The last 25 trackbacks will show right under the post title on the main page, and right under these instructions on the individual archive page. If you're reading this via newsreader it's going to be blank - you'll have to visit the main page at Wizbang to see the links.

Rules: One trackback per site please. If your link has scrolled off the list of 25 you can submit another. A link to this post isn't required (as is usually the case), but it's always appreciated.

The server with my site went down at 7:00 AM PST and they're nearly finished correcting the problem and are in process of rebooting the server.

It should be up again very soon and I wanted to apologize to anyone who may have tried my link/trackback (^^) and found a stall. Try again in a few more minutes, if you wouldn't mind.
