A 24-bit/96khz FireWire interface with pristine audio quality and reliable synchronization.
The Focusrite Saffire Pro 40, a multichannel FireWire audio interface designed with today's project studio in mind, and delivers the sound quality of much more expensive interfaces.
Focusrite's unparalleled preamp legacy forms the foundation of the Saffire Pro 40 interface, with eight award-winning Focusrite preamps. These are combined with the latest in FireWire interfacing technology to deliver seamless integration, excellent routing flexibility and future-proof, rock-solid driver stability.
With the Saffire PRO 40 interface, sonic integrity reigns supreme. The eight Focusite preamps ensure low noise and distortion, while quality digital conversion and JetPLL jitter elimination technology ensure pristine audio quality as your audio flows between the analogue and digital domains.
Alongside the eight Focusrite preamps are a host of I/O options; 10 analog outputs, ADAT I/O, stereo SPDIF I/O, and 2 virtual "loopback" inputs for routing digital audio between software applications. Every channel features phantom power, with the first two channels also featuring -9dB pads for additional headroom. Front panel 5-LED metering for each analog input offers accurate viewing of levels.
Saffire PRO 40 comes with the Focusrite plug-in suite. Focusrite Compression, Reverb, Gating and EQ VST/AU plug-ins provide a significant upgrade from standard sequencer effects, bringing a touch of class to your session. Focusrite's established Xcite+ bundle is also included. The bundle includes Ableton Live Lite, Novation's Bass Station soft synth and over 1 gigabyte of royalty-free samples.
Saffire PRO 40 Control, the zero-latency 18 x 16 DSP Mixer/Router software provided with Saffire PRO 40, sets a new standard at this price point for audio interface control. It features unparalleled output routing and monitoring, as well as intuitive one-click solutions, a clear and concise mixing layout and large on-screen metering for inputs, outputs and submixes.
Two independent headphone buses are provided, each with their own level controls available on the front panel. A dedicated stereo monitor mix output features pads for improved sound quality when connected to active monitor speakers. An 'anti-thump' circuit protects your monitor speakers from spikes when booting up or shutting down. Front panel controls include a main monitor dial with dim and mute switches, all of which fully integrate with customizable software to cover every possible monitoring need, providing a set of controls for any setup from basic stereo to full 7.1 surround.
Focusrite's popular Saffire Firewire interfaces are fully compatible with Thunderbolt ports on Mac computers. All you need to connect the two is a FireWire 400-800 cable (included with all new Saffire interfaces later this year) and the Thunderbolt to FireWire 800 adapter (not included). Simply plug this into the Thunderbolt port on your computer and connect the FireWire interface – it's as simple as that. Saffire interfaces are 100% compatible with Thunderbolt using this adaptor.

Comments about Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 FireWire Interface:
Once I got by the learning curve, I am beginning to really like this unit. I am now recording the clearest and best volume surround sound via Sonar X3 than I have heard from my home studio.
If you purchase this unit, do not give up on it, I almost did. Then after going through all the tutorials and experimenting with the on screen mixer I persevered and after about 3 weeks, I am very glad I did.

Comments about Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 FireWire Interface:
This so far this is a great interface. Read the instructions. The only problem I have is with the upgrade to Mac OS 10.9 the driver is a bit flaky. It's an issue that audio will cease to work when the you sleep the Mac.. It's random. Your only recourse is to reinstall the driver and it starts working again. I have a trouble ticket in with Focusrite and as of day 3 not a peep from them. I guess they are trying to fix the problem but with no word hard saying at this point. I power the Mac off after my session , it works when cold booted unless you've slept the Mac then it's a toss up.

Comments about Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 FireWire Interface:
Very easy to use, I set it up on my PC with Sonar 8.5 and had it up and running in no time! Two headphones outputs are very convenient, and everything worked exactly as I had hoped. The only downside I've encountered is that it's a bit on the heavy side, and slightly larger than I had expected. Even so, it's a great value!

Comments about Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 FireWire Interface:
This is my first interface unit, and while I could have went with a cheaper unit having less I/O, I decided to bite the bullet in case I decide/attempt to record a drum set one day. So far it is very user friendly, I am still working through difficulties with the included mixer and haven't quite figured out how to load or use all the plug ins and stuff that come with it, but that's my personal lack of expertise. All in all it is what I have been needing to begin my home studio and the first couple tracks I have recorded sound amazing, like 10 times better than anything else I have recorded before. I definitely recommend Focusrite products.

Comments about Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 FireWire Interface:
It will probably be replaced by a newer model soon. But she is still the best choice for the money NOW.
I wish it had EQ, compression and reverb built into mix control using the onboard DSP (You still need to open the plug ins in th DAW). I like the bundled EQ and reverb plugins; they sound pretty good. THe Compressor and gate are kinda meh (logic has some awesome plugins built in, im spoiled). They will probably try to try to copy the new appollo by UA with their next model. I will have to sell this and buy that.

Comments about Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 FireWire Interface:
I just used this for the first time to record a livr band. It was so easy to set up and doesn't take up much room in my rack. It sounded great, and I was able to run two monitor mixes and it played nice with my iMac with Mountain Lion - no issues! If you're looking for a compact and easy solution for multitrack recording that sounds great, you just found it. I've owned several other great interfaces, but this one has been the best yet. Get it!

Comments about Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 FireWire Interface:
This is just a great interface. It has tons if i/o options and everything sounds awesome. The preamps are super clean and the front panel pres handle direct signals from guitars and basses very well. The mix control software is a little hard to get a grasp on but once you do it's a very useful tool for monitoring. I live tracked a three piece band with the pro40 and they loved that I could make each of them an individual headphone mix so easily. They also love the sound quality of the recordings haha.
The only real issue I had was with firewire drivers. When I first installed the unit it was causing pretty frequent crashes and the audio would drop out. However, after some quick research I found online that if you switch from the default windows firewire driver to the "legacy" driver it fixed these issues. No problems after that.
Overall I'm really happy with the Pro40 and it was a great and much needed upgrade to my setup.

Comments about Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 FireWire Interface:
This unit is simply amazing! Install was perfect- (downloaded the latest driver and Mix Control software from the web site) I am running Windows 7 64 bit with the built in Firewire port.. Just make sure to download the tool from Focusrite to check for your compatibility with your firewire port. The output routing is the best feature ever!! I am able to use my outboard Midiverb for monitor only by simply mirroring the number 1 mic output to channel 3 output...cable from number 3 out in back of unit to input on Midiverb.. then run outputs from Midiverb back into channels 7 and 8...link channels and...voila!! Reverb I can blend to the vocal headphone mix only - it records dry! The preamps are amazingly clean sounding and this unit is built like a tank.. I don't believe you can possibly find anything even comparable in this price range.. Prior to the Pro 40 I was using an M-Audio Fasttrack Pro which was ok.. then had a brief experience (and not a good one)with the Presonus VSL product....I still couldn't get it to work right after a week.. Presonus customer service = "0" Musician's friend was nice enough to let me exchange my Presonus VSL for the Saffire Pro 40.. 20 minutes and I was recording... Thank you Focusrite for a great product...and Thank you Musicians Friend (Tammy) for such oustanding customer service... I would never shop anywhere else!!
Comments about Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 FireWire Interface:
Many reviews complained about the Mix Control software, and it is difficult to master, but there are some great YouTube videos made by Focusrite people that were very helpful. Also, when I sent an email to their Customer Service, they promptly responded with screen shots of the settings I needed to route signals where I wanted, and detailed instructions. Just make certain you give them detailed explanations of what you're trying to accomplish. They will ask for info about you computer, settings, software versions, etc., so be prepared.
Good sound, great pres, good features, study metal case, tight pots. Many reviews complained about the lack of headroom, but don't be put off by this. The volume pots are linear, not audio curve, so 5 is not half the volume of 10. Linear pots give you most of your apparent gain toward the end of its arc. Every interface I've owned before this one had lots of noise at the top end of the gain control, but this baby is quiet at the top so don't be affraid to work up there. No gain problems IMHO.
Don't yet have years of experience with this product, but its outward appearance indicates quality, as does the quality of the audio and the thought behind the features - two front mic inputs, two front headphone outputs, quality input meters, analog & digital ins & outs, routing software with infinite possibilities. My first Focusrite device was the ISA One preamp, my primary vocal pre, and its quality is at the top of anyone's scale, so I'm hoping the Saffire Pro 40 is too.
Get your best price online, then call Musician's Friend. They will beat any legitimate price on the web. I got a great deal, so my rating for value is high, and my satisfaction level is high. Would expect to pay more for this kind of sound & build quality. I suppose this device introduces Focusrite to a large audience of home studio jocks & musicians that will opt for more expensive products in the future. As such it is what the retail world calls a "loss leader." That's my guess.
Comments about Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 FireWire Interface:
Overall, I am very happy. I look forward to getting more savvy at the software interface. One point off for the headroom issue, but all in all, the pre's sound solid and for the money it's hard to argue this is a great buy.
If you'll be running this unit through a mixing board or the like in a permanent set-up, having 6 of the 8 inputs on the back works just fine. Otherwise, it's kind of a pain to have those inputs in the back. The only other complaint I have resonates with other reviewers in that the software interface has a fairly steep learning curve. I haven't played with it enough to give a great opinion, but the online help and tuturial resources for this are really thin. The learning process would go quicker with more video tutorials and the like. That said, it does seem to be a stable and usable software package.
Very solid unit. The buttons and knobs are very solid and the unit itself sits within a solid metal casing. The headroom isn't great. Other reviewers have noted the same thing. I have to crank up the level almost all the way to get a hot enough signal with mic's even with phantom power on. Other inputs like line inputs aren't quite as bad though. At the end of the day, there is still enough level to get a decent signal so no biggie. One point off for the headroom issue, otherwise a very solid unit.
Good bang for the buck, but hey, one point off because I am always looking for a good deal.

China Goes Linsane
The phenomenal rise of NBA wunderkind Jeremy Lin is sweeping mainland China -- even though he's Taiwanese.
HANGZHOU, China — Even during my Valentine's Day dinner with Stephon Marbury and Randolph Morris, two former National Basketball Association (NBA) players who now play for the Beijing Ducks, one topic was unavoidable: Jeremy Lin, the New York Knicks guard who has emerged from nowhere to lead the team to a seven-game winning streak.
"I think if they continue to push him the way they push him, he could be way bigger than Yao Ming," said Marbury, who played for the Knicks for four seasons before coming to China. Marbury, described by some as a NBA outcast, has successfully built himself up in China; he plans to introduce his Starbury clothing brand to small-town Chinese consumers. But as well as Marbury thinks he might know China, topping Yao is a tall order. The 7-foot-6-inch Yao, who played 10 years with the NBA's Houston Rockets, almost single-handedly brought the premier American basketball league to hundreds of millions of Chinese viewers.
Lin and Yao may both have Chinese ancestry, but on the court they're two different beasts. While Yao dominated in the paint as a somewhat ungainly post-up center, Lin's a natural ballhandler -- dribbling, passing, and penetrating defenses with a quick first step that has shocked the NBA. And with Yao retired as of last July, China's now caught Lin fever.
In the span of barely a week, Lin looks on track to join Yao as a household name across China. He's currently on the front page of every major Chinese news portal, video-sharing site, and microblog. "Lin Shuhao," his Chinese name, topped China's Twitter clone Sina Weibo's trending topics with over 17 million tweets about him (and counting). Chinese fans who can't wait to get his official jerseys are ordering them on Taobao, China's most popular e-commerce site, to have sellers purchase them in the United States. Lin, who speaks decent but not fluent Mandarin, currently has more than 1.3 million followers on Weibo despite having only posted 58 times. "Though I don't really understand basketball, I really fall for you when you play," wrote a Weibo user named Daiqiluxxx, who called Lin "an ideal heroic Mr. Right" in another posting.
But whereas Yao was part basketball player, part creature created by the Chinese Basketball Association (who arrived in the United States with a marketing machine in full swing), Lin has popped up out of nowhere. And his meteoric rise has hooked even casual observers. Take my parents, for example: They're not sports fans, but they devoted their entire Saturday morning to watching Lin score 38 points against the Lakers. "He's so good," my mother told me as she watched, eyes glittering. "Much better than 'Kebi' [as Chinese people call Kobe Bryant, the all-time great Lakers forward and most popular NBA star in China]," she said.
"He graduated from Harvard," my dad added.
But there's a catch: He's not actually mainland Chinese. He's Taiwanese-American, and he grew up in Palo Alto, California. Still, ancestry's enough. Only five Chinese players have ever made it to the NBA; Yi Jianlian, the one remaining, sits mostly on the bench for the Dallas Mavericks' games. And China's desperately in need of a sports star. Not a single Chinese player can be found on the rosters of the top European soccer teams, and baseball and American football have few followers in China. Lin's rise came just when Chinese fans were waiting for their next hero.
"Chinese people have always wanted an imaginary home team," says Yu Jia, a popular basketball commentator on CCTV5. "Because the performance level in the local leagues is so low, both in basketball and soccer, Chinese fans would pick a team that has a connection with them -- or even randomly."
All the Chinese NBA stars before Lin have come from inside the system. They trained in Chinese sports schools, succeeded in the Chinese Basketball Association, and then were repackaged by both the NBA and individual teams in America. Lin is different: an outsider loved for his Chinese roots. Although he's a Taiwanese-American, Chinese media commonly refer to Lin as a meiji huayi, or "Chinese-American." Local TV programs proudly introduce his zuji, or "ancestral home" (a small town in Zhejiang province), and Internet users flock to comment on articles about his Chinese background. In Taiwan, meanwhile, the media have already anointed him as the new "glory of Taiwan," just like Wang Chien-ming, the Taiwanese pitcher for the Washington Nationals, who's a household name in Taiwan.
Lin's challenge in China, whether he's ready for it or not, is to balance his identity so he doesn't alienate Christians, Taiwanese, Chinese, or any of the other groups who claim him for their own.
"Jeremy needs to make sure he doesn't jump completely into the Taiwan thing," says Terry Rhoads, managing director of Shanghai-based Zou Marketing, a sports consultancy. "If he was to wrap himself in the Taiwan flag, that would eventually turn off some potential brands in China. And as long as he straddles the fence well, he's gotta be OK."
If he succeeds, he could become a major boost for the NBA's China business, which hasn't been going smoothly. "Without any 'Chinese element' and as Yao retired, the NBA's TV ratings on CCTV is going straight down," said Jiang Heping, president of the China Central Television sports channel in an interview late last year. The NBA had plans to build their own league in China, but the plan foundered.
"There's no decision made yet about any broadcasting adjustment at CCTV, but personally I would suggest the channel air more Knicks games," says Yu. "The fans just love to watch him."
For now, though, Lin's still a somewhat unknown quantity. There's a good chance -- as Marbury told me over dinner -- that he could end up a flash in the pan. Lin has only started six games for the Knicks and has yet to face real, sustained challenges from top guards like Derrick Rose, Rajon Rondo, Chris Paul, and Steve Nash. "When they come against him, they come for blood," said Marbury. "But he's gonna come for the same thing if he's the same type of player."
"We're going to wait and see; you don't know what's gonna happen next month," added Morris.
Indeed, it's likely that Lin will come back to Earth. His rise has been sensational, but few scouts or talent evaluators will go on record saying that they see Lin maintaining his current level of excellence. For Chinese fans, though, perhaps the most likable thing about Lin is that he appears so physically average. He's neither particularly tall nor strong, and unlike the Chinese players who come out of Soviet-style sports schools, Lin -- with his Harvard degree -- shows that athletic and academic excellence don't have to be mutually exclusive.
"He may not be as successful as Yao in China because, at the end of the day, Lin doesn't wear the Chinese jersey," says Yu -- though it's rumored that he's already been approached by both Taiwan and China to play for their national teams. "But his story is inspirational not only to Chinese kids, but to also all the other Asian kids who play basketball."
To those kids, Jeremy Lin's value has less to do with the eventual limits of his talent than his do-it-yourself story, which for now, at least, has bestowed upon him a street cred that the government-raised Yao could never have.

Game Night

TripOpt55 | #1 Subject: Game Night Posted: 04/12/2012 14:03:23 |
We are going to try and get some game nights going again around here. Not sure if you want to just have a night we meet to play each week and switch the game up. Or just try and find whatever night works each week. I guess we are going to have an Uncharted 3 night this Sunday the 15th. I am thinking around 10 PM Eastern time. Feel free to suggest games and nights and we will see what we can put together. |
TheMeat | #2 Subject: Game Night Posted: 04/12/2012 14:48:36 |
I would like to do a racing game night of some kind... preferably one made by Criterion Games. So whether it is Burnout Paradise or NFS:Hot Pursuit, I would be happy. |
p-spiddy | #3 Subject: Re:Game Night Posted: 04/12/2012 18:08:04 |
I'm free for Borderlands any night after 8pm CST except Sundays and Mondays. If anyone gets a LBP or Modnation night going I'm sure my wife would be interested. Do you guys use a separate chat prog? |
ngamer-90 | #4 Subject: Re:Game Night Posted: 04/12/2012 21:30:26 |
Hope I can make it on sunday, maybe I'll get my brother to join for UC3. Agreed with Matt and p-spiddy, a NFS and Borderlands night would be sweet. |
TripOpt55 | #5 Subject: Re:Game Night Posted: 04/12/2012 21:46:49 |
I'm actually going to have the house to myself Sunday night, so after about 8PM Eastern I can play. So if you guys want to get going earlier let me know. How many people can play NFS? I might see if I can find it for a good price. I've always wanted to play it anyways. @spiddy: We use Skype sometimes, but I honestly just prefer the PS3 mic assuming I can hear people on there. @ngamer: Your brother is welcome to join us. Would be cool if we get six and could just do some custom matches. Won't have to deal with shitty matchmaking. I will see who I can round up. |
TheMeat | #6 Subject: Game Night Posted: 04/12/2012 21:56:42 |
NFS Hot Pursuit is just like Burnout... 8 players online. So you should probably pick it up. That game is the originator of the Autolog... you know Motorstorm RC's system for showing your friends time as you go through the game? They ripped that off from Hot Pursuit. |
Nephilimi | #7 Subject: Game Night Posted: 04/12/2012 22:40:15 |
Thursday was always a good night. My only suggestion Trip is to stick to a night and don't change it. If 3 people show up the first day whatever. If you stick with the night and it becomes a routine then more might join the next week. Eventually people will adjust to join... if they care. Thats's what worked for RockonD's old club. Every Thurs everyone knew it was Killzone night. Some weeks we got like 4 or 5, but in the golden months we were getting like 18 plus. If you make it UC3 on Sunday, then Burnout then next week on Tues, then skip a week or whatever, it never becomes a routine. Doesn't mean it can't be a different game every week or whatever. I have most games so I really don't care. If it's racing then I'm out because they aren't my thing but by all means have racing games some weeks. I can try to make it out for UC3 on Sunday. I need to get back and plat the game but can't seem to get motivated. The game is so long and boring after the first playthrough and I'm dreading those running portions. |
p-spiddy | #8 Subject: Re:Game Night Posted: 04/13/2012 00:18:01 |
will pick up nfs for game nights if others do too. i agree w neph about sticking to a schedule so everyone knows when to hop on if they can. so, meat, ngamer, and spiddy down for nfs. ngamer and spiddy down for borderlands. i will also buy uncharted three if u guys keep this a reoccuring thing. posting from phone so forgive punctuation and grammar. oneup hates my phone.... |
AJAPAM_34 | #9 Subject: Re:Game Night Posted: 04/13/2012 11:30:35 |
I'd prefer Shift 2 since it doesn't feel so similar to Burnout, but I may pick up Hot Pursuit if you guys are playing |
TripOpt55 | #10 Subject: Re:Game Night Posted: 04/13/2012 12:54:55 |
That is a good point Neph. Not sure there is a game anyone likes enough to play weekly, but if we kept the day constistent at least that will help. So Sunday or Thursday or both? Also count me in if we are doing a new runthrough Borderlands. Lost my save (though it was only about level 20 or so) so I'd have to start from scratch. |
p-spiddy | #11 Subject: Re:Game Night Posted: 04/13/2012 13:21:25 |
I'm definitely good Thurday nights for a Borderlands run through. |
TheMeat | #12 Subject: Game Night Posted: 04/13/2012 14:22:09 |
Sundays would work best for me... but we could definitely do two nights. |
p-spiddy | #13 Subject: Re:Game Night Posted: 04/13/2012 16:49:48 |
@Meat- Be sure to post which racing game you guys decide on so those of us without it can purchase it. Anyone interested in Borderlands post what days/times are best for you. Thurs-Sat after 8pm CST are best for me but I can swing a Sunday if necessary. |

I'd say either Burnout Paradise or Hot Pursuit... I'd rather do Hot Pursuit, but I can't turn down Burnout. I could also do Borderlands... but I've beaten that game at least four times so if you need/want another guy I'd probably join, but I'd probably have to reinstall it and download all the DLC again. |

I think I can do Thurs-Sun on anything if I'm around cause of the Time Zones thing, I'm in the Pacific to make things clearer. Might have to hunt for a copy of Burnout, wish I bought it when I saw it that one time. But I'm most ready for Hot Pursuit, Borderlands, or UC3. |

Yikes! So, NFS requires an online pass. I'm not down for that since I'd only be playing with you guys (no offense). However, I am down for some Burnout since I loved the heck out of the original and psp iterations. I'll also go ahead and pick up Uncharted 3 since I've been meaning to do that anyways. The latter two I have no problem buying new if they require online passes. Burnout Paradise is what you guys are talking about, correct? |
MotDrum | #17 Subject: Game Night Posted: 04/14/2012 16:13:55 |
Uncharted tomorrow night, Sunday. 8pm Eastern, 5 Pacific. Just to keep it visible :) I totally agree with Neph about the regular schedule thing I'll definitely be there for Uncharted tomorrow night and will play either of Burnout or NFS Hot Pursuit. Love all of those games |
TripOpt55 | #18 Subject: Re:Game Night Posted: 04/14/2012 17:27:16 |
Not going to grab NFS anytime soon. I thought it'd be cheaper new by now. You guys are still welcome to do a night for it though. I will just get in on the Burnout night if you do one of them. And yeah spiddy we are talking about Burnout Paradise. |

Sweet. Lenny is in. I was going to message you about it on PSN. We might have a pretty good turnout. @Twolf: It seems you are 13 hours ahead of me. I assume you work weekdays? Maybe we could do a Friday or Saturday one week. |

Hey thanks for playing Mot and Greenman. Maybe we start a bit later next week so we can include some more people. Was pretty fun. Me and Mot had a particularly cool comeback win in Three-Team Deathmatch. I might upload it to Youtube when I get the chance. I think we were down 16 to 10 or something like that and won in overtime. It was pretty sweet. |
Nephilimi | #25 Subject: Game Night Posted: 04/15/2012 21:48:22 |
Sorry Trip. I tried to be on as early as I could but it's tough for me to get on any earlier than 730 mountain time. |
TheMeat | #26 Subject: Game Night Posted: 04/15/2012 21:49:51 |
Yeah, sorry I didn't make it either. We had a pretty wicked thunderstorm here and our power was flickering on and off so I didn't even bother trying to get online. |
TripOpt55 | #27 Subject: Re:Game Night Posted: 04/15/2012 22:04:34 |
Next week let's make it later (which will actually be better for me most Sundays). The reason everyone left was to go eat dinner! Didn't think about that issue as an east coaster. Maybe we start after West Coast dinner time and it will go better. |
ngamer-90 | #28 Subject: Re:Game Night Posted: 04/16/2012 01:03:18 |
Sorry I couldn't make it, was out all day and went out around the time the gamenight started, around Trips time I think. That and been trying to find a copy of Burnout new since we wont be doing NFS :( Damn game is harder to find than I thought. It's too expensive online or the place I've looked and there's no copy's at the stores and I don't want a used or digital copy. Found 3 places were I can get a good price on it online, 1 not sure if it's new. 2 the other place looks kinda legit, and the third place looks a bit too seedy to buy from. |
TripOpt55 | #29 Subject: Re:Game Night Posted: 04/16/2012 06:07:40 |
Well you guys should still do a NFS night. I think a few people still have that game. What do you guys want to do this coming Thursday? |
lenny_b | #30 Subject: Re:Game Night Posted: 04/16/2012 08:45:51 |

This is a Salad Fingers parody. It isn't really done yet but here's the very first part for a teaser trailer. Enjoy!
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars June 21, 2005
Cool Parody
I did not find it too be extremely funny, but as a salad fingers fan i smiled. But the reason i ranked it so high was your art. It is very very very very detailed. Thats good. Personally, I think you should have finished it before you put it up though. That kind of spoiled it. But you did an overall great job.
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars June 20, 2005
*thumbs up*
I don't understand why some people are saying this is crap, they obviously can't have seen Salad Fingers itself. I liked the graphics, the sound needs improving, it wasn't bad but the voice of Salad Fingers needs to have a more eerie, more breathy effect I think. Overall I think you've done a good job, I hope you finish it soon!
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars May 31, 2005
that wasn't that bad. It was pretty good, actually. I didn't expect it to be so good. Nice job
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars May 29, 2005
quite allright
This was...rather good. I myself are a HUGE salad fingers fan, so i couldn't just egnore this now could i? haha. As i said, this was rather good, what you need to think about though is the voice...it's not that it wasn't good, it's just that i think it lacks of british accent, and it is somehow...not disturbing...not as psychedelic. If you could get the real voice, the voice actor of salad fingers, then this movie would be...almost as great as salad fingers, the real deal! you'll get a 3 from me, chap!

Obama has a sweet retirement package. Will you?
May 1, 2013: 5:00 AM ETNo one says the President doesn't deserve his benefits. But it's hard to get past his plan to limit savers to half the value of what he'll walk away with.
FORTUNE -- President Obama's proposal to limit the value of 401(k)s, pensions, and other tax-favored retirement accounts to about $3.4 million certainly sounds reasonable. After all, at a time of big budget deficits, we shouldn't subsidize "the rich" with tax breaks, should we?
But when you look a little closer -- especially when you look at the value of President Obama's taxpayer-funded retirement benefits -- you might think a little differently about what "rich" means. For starters, the point at which Obama wants to eliminate your ability to deduct retirement account contributions isn't actually the $3.4 million in his budget proposal -- that's just an estimate. The real number is how much a couple age 62 would have to pay for an annuity that yields $205,000 a year. That $3.4 million -- which applies to the combined values of your pension and retirement accounts -- is subject to a sharp downward change in the future because annuity issuers charge significantly less for an annuity when interest rates are higher than they do today, with rates at rock-bottom levels.
MORE: What will cause the next financial crisis? Don't ask regulators.
I'll grant you that $205,000 a year -- the current IRS maximum for what a pension fund can pay a recipient -- is serious money in many places. But it doesn't buy you a rich retirement lifestyle in, say, Manhattan, N.Y., where 205K is equivalent to only 88K in Manhattan, Kans. The Manhattan-Manhattan distinction, from Money's cost-of-living comparator, is an example of the difference between being rich statistically and being rich in reality.
Second, I can't get past Obama wanting to limit savers to only about half the value of what he stands to get from his post-presidential package. Based on numbers from Vanguard Annuity Access, I value his package at more than $6.6 million. (My calculations are at the bottom of this piece.)
That's right, $6.6 million. And that doesn't include the IRAs in which Obama has been socking away the $50,000-a-year maximum, or the $18,000 (plus cost of living) a year he will get at age 62 for his service in the Illinois senate, or any other benefits he or his wife may realize from past or future jobs.
MORE: Apple proves that a lower corporate tax rate won't matter
Because Obama will be only 56 when he leaves office, his annual pension -- which by law equals the salary of a cabinet secretary, now $200,000 -- would be worth $3.86 million at today's annuity rates. The inflation adjustment -- when cabinet salaries rise, a President's pension rises -- is worth at least $770,000 more. His personnel allowance -- $150,000 a year for 2 1/2 years, then $96,000 for life -- is worth $1.98 million. Total: $6.6 million.
I'm not begrudging Obama his benefits, which are exactly the same as what other ex-Presidents get. I'm trying to put his retirement account proposal in perspective. If Obama feels so strongly about denying tax deductions to people like himself with "excess" benefits and to their employers, he can write checks to the IRS and Illinois for what he's saved by deducting his IRA contributions. But I won't hold my breath.
Yes, there are retirement account abuses. It's unconscionable that people like Mitt Romney -- remember him? -- end up with eight-digit retirement accounts by stuffing them with assets (such as stakes in leveraged buyouts) that have low starting values but massive upsides and are available only to the elite. But that abuse is easily solved. To set up a whole new bureaucracy to monitor the value of everyone's pension and 401(k) strikes me as a vast overreaction.
Although this proposal is unlikely to become law, I don't like the principle of it. We should be encouraging people to save more for retirement, as parts of Obama's budget propose, rather than penalizing "the rich" (as Obama defines them).
The White House declined comment. But to me, this is all really simple: Limiting tax-favored retirement assets of people who have saved all their lives to about half of what taxpayers will give Obama for eight years in office is just wrong. End of story.

There were hugs, tears, and even some laughter at the calling hours for Alexandra Kogut Wednesday evening. As YNN's Cara Thomas tells us, hundreds of people came to pay their respects to her family and remember the life of the young woman they've tragically lost.
NEW HARTFORD, N.Y. -- Alexandra Kogut was from New Hartford and had just graduated a few months ago. Her friends and teammates smiled as they reflected on those high school memories they say they'll never forget.
Maggie Talaricom, a friend of Alexandra's, said, "She was probably one of the most positive, outgoing, loving, caring people I've ever met. No matter how hard a swim practice was she was yelling at us to keep going. Like cheering for us to keep going." "She one of those people that you could be having the most ugly day of your life and she'd be like you look great, you really look so good," said Ashley Shanatry, a life-long friend.
It was just a few weeks ago that Alexandra was off to college. Ready to start a new phase of her life, when it ended in a way family and friends say they still can't wrap their heads around. Police say Alexandra was killed by her boyfriend in her dorm room at College at Brockport.
James Capecelatro says, "To have a friend taken from us like that is even worse."
Looking down the never-ending line of mourners, many shades of purple stood out, the color for domestic violence and a color friends say Alexandra adored. And it wasn't just family and friends from the New Hartford area at the calling hours, two bus-loads of College at Brockport students also paid their respects.
Todd Owens, was a high school and college friend of Alexandra's. He said, "She was one of those girls you know a lot of people change when they go to college and she didn't change. She was happy as always. You know she was probably one of the nicest people there."
But as people mourn the loss of a beautiful woman, they say even her death is having a positive impact on their community.
Shanatry said, "She's really bringing our community together and it means a lot and she, I don't know, just shows that such a small town can really come together for such a tragedy."

It's still a mystery why CBS 2 reporter Serene Branson suddenly slurred her speech on Grammy night, but this much is known: She's feeling much better.
According to the local Los Angeles station, Branson "wants us to know she followed-up with a visit to the doctor for some medical tests. [She] thanks everyone for their concern and good wishes and hopes to be back on the air very soon."
Shortly into Branson's live report Sunday night, she began speaking gibberish, causing the station to quickly cut her off.

With more than 30 performers taking the stage, Sunday's 53rd Annual Grammy Awards was the ultimate concert – a Justin Bieber and Eminem show and dozens of others rolled up into one.
But whose performance was truly Grammy-worthy?
The night kicked off with a star-studded tribute to Aretha Franklin, with Jennifer Hudson, Florence Welch (of Florence + the Machine), Yolanda Adams, Martina McBride and Christina Aguilera honoring the soul legend with a medley of her hints.

Country stars Lady Antebellum represented for Nashville and had a very good night at Sunday's Grammy Awards. The six-time nominees collected five awards, including record of the year and song of the year, for their megahit "Need You Now."
"We just cried our eyes out backstage," Charles Kelley said on stage at L.A.'s Staples Center while accepting record of the year. "I can't believe we're standing up here again."
Meanwhile in an upset, rockers Arcade Fire bested Lady Gaga, Lady Antebellum, Katy Perry and Eminem, winning the night's biggest honor, album of the year, for their third album, The Suburbs. The band, who performed a rollicking version of "Month of May" earlier in the telecast complete with bicycle-riders, immediately took the stage again and sprinted through an anthemic version of "Ready to Start" after collecting their award from Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson.
Ten-time nominee Eminem picked up best rap album for Recovery during the ceremony. "Okay, this is crazy," he said as he received a standing ovation. "Thank you to the fans."

Katy Perry traded her pastel-colored, cotton candy-themed performances of late for something far more personal at Sunday's Grammy Awards: the pop star, and four-time nominee, debuted footage of her Indian wedding during a heartfelt performance of "Not Like the Movies."
Perched on a swing that began to ascend, Perry sang, "I know you're out there and ... your love came for me," as footage of her Indian nuptials to comedian Russell Brand flashed on a curtain attached to the swing.
Perry and Brand tied the knot on Oct. 23 in a very private and spiritual ceremony in Northern India, and have not previously released any images from the event. In the footage, Perry, 26, sporting a veil, was seen exchanging rings and, later, kissing Brand.
The singer, who arrived at the ceremony with Brand and her 90-year-old grandmother, then pumped up the volume a bit, finishing the performance with an abridged version of her hit "Teenage Dream," complete with back-up dancers.

She crooned like a cowgirl at the CMA Awards, sang along with the Glee kids and rocked the stage at Saturday Night Live with Cee Lo Green. Now Gwyneth Paltrow has one more A-list performance to add to her resume: the Grammy Awards.
In a playful turn on the Grammy stage Sunday night, the actress once again joined Green – and some colorful Jim Henson Puppets! – to sing a TV-friendly version of his nominated hit song, "F–– You."
Paltrow, 38, bopped along in front of a spaceship-like backdrop, cozying up to her duet partner atop a piano. And she wasn't the only one having a good time: Green also dressed for the occasion – completing his stage ensemble with a disco-worthy, sequined head cap and feathered accessories.

It was a fitting way for Lady Gaga to perform her fresh single "Born This Way" live for the first time.
Emerging from a womb-like vessel, in which she made the rounds of the red carpet earlier, Gaga, 24, shimmied and shook in a skin-tight latex getup – complete with pointy shoulder pads and a side-ponytail.
Embryonic entrance aside, the pop star kept it pretty simple.
No glitter, no standing ovation from the audience, no duet partner, this year's performance was a change of pace from last year's high-concept Grammy performance with Elton John. This year, Gaga focused on a spirited dance routine and, at one point, pounded an organ studded with what looked like dolls' heads.

Katy Perry has four shots at scoring a Grammy Award, but win or lose, she's not sweating it: She already has her Grammy – of sorts.
The Teenage Dream singer, 26, was joined by husband Russell Brand, who had just hosted Saturday Night Live the night before, and her grandmother, Ann Hudson, at Sunday's ceremony from L.A.'s Staples Center.
"If I don't go home with any Grammys, I still go home with my Grammy," she told E! host Ryan Seacrest.

Christina Aguilera showed some respect for Aretha Franklin at Sunday's Grammy Awards.
One week after the pop star's big Super Bowl fumble – she flubbed the words during her National Anthem performance – Aguilera opened an all-female tribute to the Queen of Soul at L.A.'s Staples Center alongside Jennifer Hudson, Florence Welch (of Florence + the Machine), Yolanda Adams and Martina McBride.
Standing in a row, the ladies swapped harmonies, alternating lead vocals during the 10-minute run-through of many of Franklin's hits.
After leading off with "You Make Me Feel (Like a Natural Woman)" as a collective, Aguilera belted out "Ain't No Way," accenting the tune with plenty of melisma and her trademark vocal trilling. She stood confidently as she sang and ended the performance on a (sustained) high note – literally.

Talk about a grade-A entrance: When Lady Gaga rolled into the 53rd annual Grammy Awards Sunday night, the six-time nominee arrived in an alternative form of transportation.
E! red carpet host Ryan Seacrest described it as a shell or an egg.
"This is going to make for an interesting interview," Seacrest said, with a laugh. "How are we going to crack that shell and make a conversation with Lady Gaga?"

ATLANTA -- It seems if you want to get someone mad, talk about banks.
"They owe this community an apology," said Annie Charles after leaving the Bank of America branch at 2050 Donald Lee Hollowell Parkway in Northwest Atlanta.
Charles is upset because the bank is closing the branch March 8th.
"They're saying that business is down in this particular area," added Emmie Hammonds, who says she's banked at the location for 50 years.
"We've served you and we want you to continue to serve us," Hammonds said.
Bank of America says its decision is "driven primarily by a significant decline in transactions" and that it has been trying to work closely with the community to help them transition to more online and ATM banking.
Senator Vincent Fort says it's not enough. He feels the bank owes it to the community to stay open.
"They told us essentially to drop dead. Bank of America has done a lot of bad things in that community. One, bad predatory loans for people they knew who couldn't afford the loans. Two, they foreclosed on those properties illegally and three they don't maintain those properties that they foreclosed on," said Fort.
Bank of America disputes the allegations. In a statement to 11Alive it said:
Through the National Mortgage settlement alone, we have approved or completed almost $145 million in first and second lien consumer relief for nearly 2,200 homeowners in the state.
Bank of America recently completed an inspection of bank owned properties in the area and we are committed to maintain properties to neighborhood standards.
It asked residents who feel otherwise to report problems with its bank owned properties by calling 866-515-9759.
The bank says it's donated money to the Fulton County Department of Aging to transport customers to and from the Dogwood Senior Center to nearby Bank of America banking centers and will hold a series of financial literacy seminars specific to the needs of seniors.
But seniors aren't the only ones with needs. That's why the community still plans to rally in front of the building next Tuesday at 2:30, in hopes of chainging the banks mind.
Ced Wilson says he also joined nearly 500 other residents in signing a petition, asking the same.
"My mother lives in this neighborhood and she doesn't have access to a bank and I don't have transportation so what are we to do," asked Wilson.
In the meantime, local leaders say they're also reaching out to other banks to see if one of them would be willing to move into the space.
The community is heavily dependent on public transportation, which they say makes the closing even more difficult. There isn't another bank for at least two miles and the closest full service BofA branch is five miles away.

Weatherization Assistance Program Goals and Metrics
Fiscal Year | Number of Homes Weatherized |
2000 | 74,316 |
2001 | 77,697 |
2002 | 104,683 |
2003 | 100,202 |
2004 | 99,756 |
2005 | 97,582 |
2006 | 104,149 |
2007 | 104,283 |
The overall goal of the Weatherization Assistance Program is to reduce the burden of energy prices on the disadvantaged. Weatherization is a priority for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), and it was recommended to Congress that it authorize budgets sufficient to weatherize 1.2 million homes between 2002 and 2010.
The Weatherization Assistance Program's metrics consist of the amount of funding provided to the states and the number of homes weatherized. Since the states manage their respective programs, the funding and number-of-homes metric reflects what is accomplished in the states.
Funding has increased over the past two years reflecting the White House's support for this program. The total allocation for FY 2009 is $250 million.
The single most important metric is the number of homes weatherized, and reflects data collected from the states. Since many states operate on a different fiscal year and report at different times than DOE, these production data are reported on a "program year" that lags DOE's fiscal year ending September 30.

With a name like Cannes, it's got to be artsy! And the artsiest of film fests is the perfect place to let loose with the upcoming film adaptation of Beat Generation kingpin Jack Kerouac's famed novel On the Road. Posters for Walter Salles' flick have been hitting the Internet for some time now, with the most recent depicting the cast's rising star, Kristen Stewart.
The Twilight heroine plays Marylou, one victim of the flighty lifestyle of Dean Moriarty (Garrett Hedlund). Due to the promotional focus dedicated to Stewart, fans of the book might assume that Marylou's character will play a larger part in the film. Also featured in individual posters below are Sam Riley as the book's hero Sal as well as Kirsten Dunst, Amy Adams, Elisabeth Moss, Tom Sturridge, Alice Braga, and Viggo Mortensen.
Read about some other rising stars and interesting projects heading to Cannes 2012 here.

Pretty, ain't she? I actually bought 4 of them, although I really need 6 dining chairs. I wasn't sure how they'd work since I was buying them online, plus I wasn't sure if I wanted all the same or if I wanted to do 2 different captains chairs. They were $33 each. REALLY! No, I didn't forget an extra zero there! I was floored. For those who don't know, this is a chiavari chair. It's actually an ancient Italian banquet chair design, created for the ladies to perch upon in the massive ball gowns of the day. On top of it's charming antiquated history, the chiavari chair is a must have staple for glam weddings, and considering my past as wedding planner, it seemed even more fitting to have these in my home. They're easy to clean, lightweight, and just that perfect splash of eclecticism I was looking for. Love.
And this is a very similar design to the chairs I craiglisted. Ok, this one's a bit nicer, but you get the idea. Just add some scuffs on the legs and some stains on the fabric!
My hubby and mother told me I was dreaming when I said I thought I'd get $100 for them. I thought that was realistic, but I asked for $125 instead just in case some haggler decided to barter me down. Well guess what? Not only did I sell them but I got exactly what I asked for them! Woot woot! A little part of me almost wishes I had asked more- as I had many people emailing me asking if it was $125 for one chair, or for all six. Oh well. They found a new home (thank goodness because these chairs were my first baby), and I made some money to help pay for my lovely chiavari chairs.
Just for fun, lets do some math:
Cost of New Chairs (including shipping) $190
Less funds from Old Chairs - $125
Total Expense: $65
Granted, I now only have 4 chairs and do need to figure out what to do for the other 2, but if I do say so myself, $65 for an entirely new look is GREAT deal! I love this upcycling thing!

"Beyond the Boundaries of Twilight", released at Ron's Planetarium concert in Bochum, Germany on May 24, fills this "gap", offering 71 minutes of both atmospheric and dynamic but always captivating music. The background of the conceptual music is told by Ron on the second piece "The Story". Although almost all music on the album is made by Ron, the encompassing music at times is complimented by some great guitar parts by Frank Dorittke (aka F.D.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Taking pictures of animals and birds has never been easier.
So says Steve Shaluta, a St. Albans photographer who believes the advent of digital photography has transformed what used to be a prohibitively expensive, difficult-to-learn pastime into something almost anyone can afford to do.
"Everything is easier today," said Shaluta, who began shooting wildlife photos 30 years ago when most cameras used 35mm film.
"When I got started, the films those cameras used were really 'slow' - you couldn't use them in low light unless you had big, 'fast' lenses that cost thousands of dollars. To use those cameras and lenses effectively, you had to carry around a big ol' tripod."
Digital camera gear was expensive when it came out in the early 2000s, but prices dropped quickly as technology improved and manufacturing became less expensive. Shaluta said that today, amateur photographers can put together a nature-shooting rig for less than $1,000 that produces photos every bit as good and sharp as a 1990s-era rig that would have cost $5,000 or more.
"There are so many advantages to modern digital photo equipment," he added. "The cameras are much more light-sensitive, which means you can get perfectly exposed photos in low-light conditions. Lenses are smaller, lighter in weight, and lots of them have a 'vibration reduction' feature that allows them to be handheld instead of attached to a tripod.
"The biggest advantages, though, are that digital cameras allow you instant feedback on the pictures you take, and they allow you to shoot as much as you like without the expense of having film processed."
Film photographers always had to be conscious of how many photos they were shooting.
"You'd go out and shoot three, four, maybe five rolls of film in a day," Shaluta said. "That's only 100 to 170 shots. Now, with a digital camera, you're limited only by the size of your camera's memory card. Even a medium-capacity digital memory card can hold 5,000 images or more, and it can be reused again and again."
In much the same way that some audiophiles prefer analog sound to digital, some modern photographers have started to dabble with film again. Shaluta, however, remains a steadfast convert to digital technology.
"I love it. I would never go back. Digital photography is the greatest thing ever," he said.
Both formats have been good to him. Since the mid-1980s, Shaluta has had literally thousands of his wildlife and nature photos published in Wonderful West Virginia, Outdoor Photography, Blue Ridge Country and Field & Stream magazines, among many others. His photos have also appeared in dozens of calendars and books and in too many advertisements to count.
Given his accomplishments, one might presume he uses high-end, high-dollar cameras and lenses. He doesn't.
"I use 'pro-sumer' level cameras, ones that have some professional features but are priced for the consumer market," he said. "My current camera bodies cost about $1,100. The highest-end bodies in [the manufacturer's] line cost $6,000. If I drop one of my bodies into the water, I could go out and buy four more for what I would have put into one top-end body."
For nature photography, Shaluta uses only digital single-lens reflex (DSLR) cameras, for several reasons: They allow him to shoot in dimmer light, they allow him to change lenses, they give him more control over shutter speeds and aperture settings, and their larger sensors allow him to blow pictures up to larger sizes without degrading their quality.
"Almost any DSLR body from a major manufacturer will give you the ability to make publication-worthy pictures," he said. "You don't have to spend $1,000 or $2,000. Most manufacturers offer models in the $300-$400 range."
Shaluta doesn't use point-and-shoot cameras for wildlife photography.

Don't think your start-up idea is going to fly? Don't abandon it yet. You don't know if it's going to work unless you ask your customers.
Don't think your start-up idea is going to fly? Don't abandon it yet. You don't know if it's going to work unless you ask your customers.
"Pivot" is on track to become the most over-used word in start-up linguistics. You knew we were in trouble when it was immortalized earlier this year in a New Yorker cartoon. Picture an elegant couple in a fancy restaurant. The woman says, "Henry, I'm not really leaving you. I'm just going to pivot to another man."
Pivots may be trendy, but my fear is that they're way too trendy--and therein lies the danger for start-ups. For the unitiated, a pivot is defined as a significant change to a component of your start-up's business model, such as moving from paid to freemium, or from direct to channel sales, for example. The scary part of the trend: Too many entrepreneurs are viewing pivots as an achievement. So, they rush to achieve, which often results in "premature evacuation," or abandoning a solid business model based on far too little legitimate customer feedback.
Here are a few examples from recent conversations with start-ups:
Pivoting is powerful, indeed, and should always be a consideration. But it should be based on thorough, consistent customer feedback, not a few or even a few dozen comments. Often the best pivots emerge from intense customer feeback--tens or scores of interviews, not a handful. One credible excuse I heard not long ago: "Google just entered our market bigtime." OK, start-up vs. megabillion-user behemoth. I'd pivot(or hide under my desk), too.
Often, advisors, investors (if any), and mentors can help make the, er, pivotal decision. They have a far broader range of experience, and often have "pattern matching" skills that help them separate fact from fiction in terms of market opportunity, feedback, and exogenous factors like regulatory or technology shifts. That's why my co-writer and fellow Inc.com contributor Steve Blank encourages start-ups to embrace outside advisors and mentors in an advisory board from the very first days.
Instead of pulling a pivot, sometimes it makes sense to divot, or dig in (a golf term for digging your club into the grass rather than the ball). First of all, there are lots of things other than the product iself that you can change in your business model for great business impact. Ning, for example, went from a consumer focus to a corporate focus for "private social networks." Groupon's legendary pivot from social action to discount spray tans and massages made only a minor tweak to its value proposition of getting groups of people together to do things.
Whether you're pivoting or divoting, the key driver of your next step is product/market fit: clear signals from a definable customer segment that indicate passionate excitement about your value proposition. It's clearly not time to "dig in" in these two examples I saw recently:
There are no rules telling you when it's time to pivot or when to "divot," or as card players say "when to hold 'em, and when to fold 'em."
Try these asking yourself the following questions the next time you're analyzing your start-up's traction:
1. Are you seeing a continually increasing number of new purchases, sign-ups, activations, or whatever? Does it increase almost every day or month?
2. Are you gaining active, engaged users who come back again and again, or one-time tryers whose session durations get shorter and shorter?
3. Is your site, app, or product getting exciting, increasing virality? Do most (that's most, not a few) of your new sign-ups or customers rush to tell their friends, and do the friends engage?
Before you pivot--or divot--let your customers tell you how truly excited they are to do business with you.
If they are excited, dig in with your core business model somewhat, and use customer discovery tactics to make them even more excited by tuning and enhancing other elements of your business model.
If they're not excited, be sure you've talked to enough customers face to face (we define "enough" as at least 50, usually per customer segment) before abandoning ship in a premature evacuation.

I got the pattern to make this sweet little bunny basket out of this book that I've had for years. My original intent was to scan the pattern and include it with this blog post but then I thought about copyright rules and regulations and I got a little nervous about it.
My daughter, Carrie, thinks it will be ok if I offer to email the scan to you for FREE if you would like to have a copy. I'm not selling it, and I've given credit...so I think that will be ok. Just one friend, sharing a pattern with another friend, with no profit involved.
So, if you'd like a copy you can send an email to me at paperturtle[at]cox[dot]net and I'll send it your way.
And if you're an expert on copyright junk,
maybe you can shed some light.

Porous silicon optical microcavities
Porous silicon optical microcavities are 1D photonic bandgap structures that reflect light at specific frequencies. The color of reflected light depends in part on the refractive index (n) of substances that fill the porous volume. This principle is exploited in designing biosensor and drug delivery devices. The figure shows an SEM image of a porous silicon surface superimposed on a baseline and shifted optical spectrum. Porous silicon optical microcavity sensors exhibit a large color change when exposed to ethanol (n= 1.3614) displacing air (n= 1.0000) from the pores.
