When do children begin to recognize hypocrisy?
November 13, 2019 by Jack Wang, University of Chicago
UChicago psychologists found that children as young as seven years old may be thinking critically about reputation, and the moral implications of statements such as "Stealing is bad." Credit: shutterstock.com
Practice what you preach. Suit your actions to your words. Walk the talk. Hypocrisy is ingrained as a moral failing for most adults, but when do children learn to make the same distinction?
According to a new study from University of Chicago psychologists, the shift seems to happen early in elementary school.
The researchers discovered that children who were at least seven years old began to predict future behavior based on a person's statement about morals. Unlike their younger peers, those children thought that someone who said stealing was bad would be less likely to steal—and also thought that thefts by those individuals should be punished more harshly.
"Our findings suggest that children of this age are thinking critically about people falsely representing themselves in some way," said UChicago doctoral student Hannah Hok, the first author on the study. "They're thinking about reputation at a relatively early age."
Hok produced the study with Asst. Prof. Alex Shaw, the senior author and a leading expert on how concepts such as reputation and fairness develop in childhood. Published this week in the journal Child Development, the research relied on a series of experiments conducted with more than 400 children ranging from four to nine years old.
"Children understand that when people's words—when they talk about moral principles—are discordant with their actual behavior, they should be punished more harshly," Shaw said.
In the first experiment, the participants were told about two children, one who condemned stealing ("Stealing is bad.") and one who made a morally neutral statement ("Broccoli is gross."). They were then asked to predict who was more likely to steal, and which theft should be punished more severely.
Participants in other experiments were asked to compare someone who condemned stealing with someone who praised sharing ("Sharing is really, really good"), as well as with someone who denied stealing ("I never steal").
In all cases, the seven- to nine-year-old participants were more likely than younger children (ages four to six) to use condemnation as a predictor for future action.
A final experiment presented participants with someone who praised stealing and someone who condemned it. Both older and younger children predicted that the former would be more likely to steal—indicating that young children may have particular trouble using condemnation as a behavioral signal.
Interviewing children at a Chicago science museum, the researchers did not collect demographic information other than age and gender, and did not find significant gender-based differences in their results.
Shaw hopes to conduct more research into the behavior of younger children and whether they can better predict actions that are morally neutral, such as eating broccoli. He also hopes to examine how children's judgments may change with social context, and how they treat hypocrisy that doesn't benefit the speaker.
"It may not be inconsistency, per se, that kids are reacting to," Shaw said. "We think it's engaging in hypocrisy to benefit yourself that provokes the negative reaction."

Governor Bullock Continues to Encourage Funding Land and Water Conservation Fund
Wednesday, November 18, 2015/Categories: Department of Environmental Quality, Governor's Office, Montana.gov/Tags:
Helena, Mont. – In response to the hearing in Congress before House Natural Resources on reauthorization of the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF), Montana Governor Steve Bullock again urged Congress to support full mandatory funding and permanent reauthorization of the LWCF, which expired in September. The LWCF uses royalties from the depletion of offshore oil and gas to create and protect natural areas and water resources across the nation.
"The LWCF has made Montana a richer and more productive place to live and work. While some in Washington DC wring their hands over how to move forward, Montanans know a good thing when they see it," Bullock said, adding "The current structure and flexibility that is built into the LWCF has served Montana well."
From city parks and recreation facilities in Sidney and Missoula, to conservation easements on family ranches along the Rocky Mountain Front, to preserving forest jobs and hunting and fishing opportunities in the Thompson and Fisher Valleys, the LWCF has supported and complemented an outdoor way of life that is the envy of the nation.
Montana has received over $237 million from the LWCF since 2005. As of 2012, 181,000 working forest lands have been conserved through LWCF funds, and approximately 165 fishing access sites have been created or improved.
Governor Bullock also cited the large economic benefits to Montana from LWCF funds. Active outdoor recreation contributes more than $6.0 billion each year to the state's economy and supports 34,000 jobs. It's estimated that over 950,000 people hunt, fish, or watch wildlife in Montana each year, opportunities made possible in part by funding from the LWCF.
Governor Bullock's support of the LWCF is the latest in his long standing dedication to Montana's outdoor heritage and public lands. He continues to make preserving Montana's wild spaces a top priority of his administration.

So we lost the internet for two days thanks to a certain phone company being unspeakably lame. Sorry if I haven't been posting, commenting, and answering email to your satisfaction.
Plus . . . moving!
We just left the Sydney flat, which was sadly empty and smelling of cleaning chemicals. We're staying at the in-laws' for two days before flying back to NYC. And now it is time to reminisce.
Sure, Specials may be at number 5 now. And yes, there's that big news I've been promising you and not delivering, because I am a bad, bad man who drops hints and then is told by his agent that certain news is not public yet (grinds teeth).
But instead of discussing these things, I'm going to pause a moment to list all the things I'll miss about Surry Hills.
The arched-tree promenade of Hyde Park, a mere five minutes' walk away.
The glorious AMP Tower, seen at sunset out the glorious big window.
The telescope, which is staying here, alas. No more shall the moon be this cratered disk—orbalicious, blinding. Back to the mercury-vapor-pink skies of Manhattan.
The carnivorous plants of the nearby Botanical Gardens. You ate bugs so we didn't have to, and yet we hardly knew ye.
The mighty Chesterfield, where much of Specials and The Last Days was penned. Plus, I loved that 6.4-meter ceiling.
Last photo by Justine, all others by me.
In the last photo, was Justine flying around near the ceiling taking the photo? Or was jonathan helping her out a bit.
It was taken leaning out from the bedroom. I will also miss the mezzanine-ness of that flat.
my dad used to have some of those venus fly trap plants and i would tickles them with a paper clip and they'd shut. it was very thrilling. but then my dad told me to quite it because they take like an hour to re-open and he didn't want them to starve, missing out on all those valuable potential-feeding hours. just thought i'd share.
Dude, your apartment is SO CLEAN. Did you plan it that way? Or is it always that clean! And Venus fly-traps are so cool!
Word that was a super clean apartment. So are you going to take a tour around New York and do some signings when you get here? I would love autographed copies of midnighters (favorite series ever). Where do you consider home? I take trips to florida for a couple weeks out of the year but binghamton is still my home. I guess what i'm tryin to ask is which place feels more like home?
Intense photo of the moon through the telescope. Thats way sharp. I can dig it.
And woah to the clean apartment. Is that the stair-case in the upper left corner?!
wow love the picture of the moon!! and jane my mom had venus fly trap plant things and i did the same thing….haha it was so fun and entertaining….oh the good old days….
Sydney looks prettier than the suburbs of California. I wanna live there.
Welcome back to the City, Scott!
When will be your next signing at Books of Wonder?
When will the big news be sharable? Soon, or should w forget it for now?
Yes, the hinting is driving me crazy! Sigh, I would love to live in sydney or NYC, but sadly I'm stuck in the midwest of the U.S., sigh. I really need to read specials, but I'm afraid of another midnighters-ish ending to the trilogy.
Congrats again on the move.
Oh, that picture of Hyde Park is fantastic.
I find it really cool to see where you write, for some reason. And I hope that you are able to share your mysterious big news soon.
I'm stuck in the midwest, too.
That looks like such a gorgeous place to live! I love the high celings and the super-clean apartment. And the fact that such a pretty park is close.
I think I want to move to Sydney.
Anyway, yay for specials getting #5!!
But you coming to NY means that you are closer to Jersey.
Do you rent out the same flat every time you move back and forth, or do you have to find a new one every time?
Scott I know that this is a pointless question; Do you know where Newfoundland is?
Surry Hills seems amazing; if you took any other amazing pictures don't hold out.
The last days! I can't wait!
The release is sometime in august?
i like all the pics-especially the moon(i LOVE astronomy). i'm sorry that you had to leave the pretty-ness there and come to the smog-filled-not-pretty-ness here. but we like it more when you are here!
Amanda, I saw that book too!! That is incredibly weird. Serioulsy weird. I saw it on amazon.com and got incredibly confused from the title. Completey strange coincidence.
Who needs to listen to their agent? Pfffft.
Whoa, the pictures are so cool! I wanna go to Australia…*tear* WHAT IS THE BIG NEWS?!?!?!
Omg, the venus fly trap things, those are soooo cool!!
wow. now i am inspired to visit australia. looks fun! and although now this is totally cliche, holy crap!! your apartment is so clean! its amazing! and yay for specials!
Wow, it's looks so wonderful to be over there! Did you have any bad encounters with any huge spiders or anything? Also, are you going to be doing book-signings in the bay area any time? I would love to have a book signed.
Someday I'm gonna have to visit Austalia. I think this is just pretty much fact. Of course, I want to visit everywhere, but Australia, or at least New Zealand, is definitely in the Top Ten.
And I'm no longer jane. It's jane-la. So pretty-making, no?
ok, kind of off topic, and it probably isnt news, but i watched this movie today, called Disturbing Behaviour, and the theme is kinda like uglies, and this is the tagline: "It doesn't matter if you're not perfect. You will be." they turn 'unruly teenagers' into 'upstanding citezens'. its creepy.
i just finished reading the first Midnighters. can you believe my library only has the first one? so unfair. i feel cheated.
You know, Jane-la, you can always ask your librarian to get the other books. Librarians love to hear from their readers (and authors love to sell books, heh, heh).
:q I'll change my name to Katerate so you can remain Kate.
and katerate is a fully righteous name, if i may say so.
Hmm…. "Rebecca" doesn't sound good with wa or la. Too many syllables. Maybe I'll use my nickname: Becs-la. Yeah!!
Those pictures are fabulous. Australia is next on my list after England, but unfortunately I'll probably only get to study abroad once. But I've always wanted to check out Aussie-land, so maybe I'll find a way, who knows. Do you guys walk everywhere down there?
Katerate, thanks a ton, shouldn't be confusing now.
pish posh and hogwash! kate and jane are basically the same name anyways. four letters, second letter is 'a' the last 'e' the first and third constanants… j is directly before k in the alaphabet, and n is only five letters ahead of t.
hip hip for carnivorous plants!
just like to ask how i can email you? because, when i click the 'contact me' button on your website, it doesnt seem to work.. anyways, yeah. i wouldnt mind a couch like that. where i would put it is a good question, but its better to worry about that after you buy it, if you know what i mean..


A true artisan experience, every process is currently done by hand, completely in-house, with the aid of small machinery.
At the moment, Studio Natalie works exclusively in reclaimed copper water pipe, salvaged wire, and lead-free glass enamels.
Once the copper pipe is sourced, it is fired in a wood stove. Since the copper pipe is factory tempered or work-hardened to withstand extreme water pressure pumping through it, the firing of the copper is crucial as it softens it enough to cut and shape. The pipe cools slowly, so it stays malleable for the next stages of the process.
The pipe is then cut and lightly hammered into flat sheets. Each sheet is graded for size, surface markings, or damage.
Patterns and designs are cut out of the sheets. After each piece has been cut out, its edges are smoothed out using a belt sander, files, and/or sandpaper. Pieces are then either hammered, or pressed with a pattern in a hydraulic press.
Once the pieces have been shaped, they are then placed in a rotary tumbler with stainless steel shot to polish them.
In the case of our glass enamels, we uses both opaque and transparent colours in our products. Each piece can have up to 12 layers of enamel fused onto the copper to achieve the right colour and texture. A kiln is used to enamel the pieces, making them a consistent and high quality.
The total process time can take anywhere between days to weeks to complete. Most pieces are processed in small batches, with the exception of custom orders.

Q: Code sample for capturing audio from a Mac in Cocoa and saving to file? I'm due to work on a small application that captures audio from the Mac's Audio Queue and needs to save it to disk in some reasonable audio format.
Does anyone have a some decent sample code (Cocoa / Objective-C) that they can share?
I specifically need to capture the audio that is being passed to the Built-in Output device in order to record it.  Any insights? The answers so far have been helpful, but have not helped me understand how the data going to the output can be captured, agnostic of the input source.

A: There is a good example code at Ulli Kusterers Github Repository
Cocoadev also has an article about that topic. The source code at the bottom of the page uses QuickTimes Sequence Grabber API. I would go with Core Audio.

A: Working with audio in Mac OS X involves interfacing with Core Audio. For a quick overview, take a look at the Core Audio Overview.
You will need to interface with the AUHAL to perform input and output; a technical note exists detailing the steps required to do so. This code seems to usually be written in C++, as that is the procedure taken in the SimplePlayThru demo.
This doesn't cover the actual steps required to capture that audio input. However, these links should provide you with enough sample code to begin interfacing with your input device. I'll post more links in this answer if I happen across them.

Take a look at /Developer/Example/CoreAudio/Services/AudioFileTools. Specifically, look at afrecord.cpp. Admittedly, this is not Cocoa per se; Cocoa itself doesn't seem to have  any specific capabilities for recording. If you'll want to interface with the C++ file there, you'll likely need to write some Objective C++ like in SimplePlayThru.

Because oil crises or other supply constraints distort energy production and demand management, energy pricing remains an important policy instrument of economic management. Moreover, for many developing countries, the problem of energy management includes the pricing of energy products within a framework of planning, as well as questions of supply. In many countries energy production and distribution are now publicly managed. Such public operations have to account for both efficiency in production and equity in distribution. The pricing of energy inputs thus emerges as a key planning parameter.
Capacity expansion decisions are critically important to both public and private-sector energy suppliers as well as regional and national energy planning agencies. Simplistically stated, planning for the expansion of an energy supply system involves determining when and where new energy production facilities of various types and sizes should be deployed to meet projected demands. As with most energy-related decision problems, several factors complicate capacity expansion planning. These factors include the involvement of multiple decisionmakers and interest groups, uncertainties about technology costs and demand projections, varying degrees of risk associated with alternative energy technologies, the need to consider costs and effects over long time horizons, and the difficulty of quantifying key impacts and concerns.
Since the establishment of a private market for uranium in the United States in the late 1960s, the industry's fluctuating fortunes have been reflected in the short-term price of uranium as represented by NUEXCO's "exchange value."' Exchange values are current prices for current or near-term delivery. While NUEXCO emphasizes that its exchange value is not a "spot" price in the usual sense of the word, it still is generally regarded as an indicator of uranium spot (short-term) market price levels.
The years since the 1973 spurt in oil prices have witnessed a growing interest in renewable energy sources. Increased attention has been paid to the development of technologies using new and renewable sources of energy, such as solar, wind, tidal, biomass, and hydropower. These sources are all the more important in developing countries with scarce conventional sources of energy like coal and oil. The new and renewable energy resource systems offer attractive prospects because they are pollution-free, unlimited, and often cheap. They can also help preserve ecosystems and retard degradation of the environment. Moreover, renewable energy resources can be developed extraordinarily rapidly, as shown by the experience with wood fuel in United States, small hydropower and biogas in the PRC, and energy crops in Brazil. In some countries technical advances have brought wind machines, solar cells, and biogas close to commercialization for heating and electricity generation. Thus far, over 3 million solar water heaters have been sold in Japan and over 5 million wood stoves in the United States.
Since the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) emerged in the early 1970s as a dominating force in the world petroleum market, much effort has been devoted to investigating the relationship between U.S. demand for crude oil imports, the world price of crude oil, and the domestic price of crude oil.' Little attention has been paid, however, to the role of refined product imports in the U.S. market. My purpose is to fill this gap through an empirical investigation of the "competitiveness" of refined product imports in the domestic market. The focus will be on the motor gasoline, residual fuel oil, middle distillates, and jet fuel markets, as these four products account for most domestic product consumption.
Competition and regulation are often perceived to be in conflict, because regulation usually evolves in response to a failure of the market system. In the case of public utilities in the United States, the familiar argument is that production scale economies make it cheaper for a single firm to provide essential products or services than for two or more firms to do so. To take advantage of the production efficiencies but avoid the resource allocation problems inherent in monopoly levels of price and output, either assets are publicly owned or a privately owned firm is regulated.' In the first case, the incentive to maximize profits is replaced by the need to maximize political support.' Thus the price charged for output is less than the monopoly price. In the second case, states have created public utility commissions (PUCs) to control both access to the market and the monopolist's price and output decisions.
The sharp oil price increases of the 1970s, and the consequent balance-of-payments difficulties, encouraged many oil-importing developing countries to develop and exploit their indigenous energy resources. Today, several developing countries with commercially attractive reserves of natural gas (for example, Bangladesh, Egypt, Pakistan, and Thailand) have seriously begun to use their gas resources for internal domestic and industrial purposes as well as for exports. They now confront the basic economic question of how to value gas resources and how to allocate them.
The initial stimulus for this note came from Chung and Aigner (1981), which examined the impact of a major change in electricity tariff structure on industrial and commercial electricity demands. Using a translog cost function the authors investigate the effects on consumption of a change in the pricing practices of the Pacific Gas and Electricity Corporation (PGEC). Instead of charging a uniform price for electricity throughout the 24-hour period, PGEC switched to a "time of use" (TOU) pricing regime. The model performed well for 10 of the 13 industry groups over the 41-month period, and indicated a considerable variation across industries in the impact of TOU pricing. The authors find a general pattern of moderate response to TOU pricing in the peak period and some substitution among electricity demands over other times of the day. The industries that showed the most elastic demands were logging camps, paper mills, industrial gases, and cement manufacturers (as well as shopping centers and educational institutions in the nonmanufacturing sector). The limited available evidence suggests that a similar diversity of responses exists across industries in other countries (Mitchell, Manning, and Acton 1978, pp. 89-120).
In his recent Energy Journal article, G. H. Tzeng emphasizes on the transportation aspects of increased coal use in Taiwan. He does not, however, offer much detail on the economic basis for the switch in National Energy Policy from imported oil to coal. While such a switch confirms that the exercise of rational fuel mix choices has found its due place in Taiwan, it seems appropriate to examine the efficiency of such a switch and its implications, especially for import balances. The new Taiwan energy policy Tzeng describes would increase coal consumption from 7.8 million tons (MT) in 1982 to 43.4 MT over the period ending in 2001. Ninety percent of this requirement would be imported. Of this, more than half would go to the electric power industry (23.8 MT by 2001). The total growth in coal consumption projected by Tzeng for this period amounts to 456 percent in 19 years.
This paper analyzes the causes of the recent stagnation of Hungary's gross energy consumption. Applying a dynamic method, we estimate the effect of three factors: reduced growth, structural adjustment, and energy conservation. After an explanation of the methodology and a description of the estimating procedures, we discuss our results and offer some conclusions. Individual equations are contained in the appendix.
One of the greatest compliments that can be paid to a research effort is an attempt to refute its findings that instead replicates those findings. That is the present case. Commenting on Carpenter and Chester (1984), Peterson (1985) states, "The authors conclude that conservation credits have done little to stimulate conservation expenditures, but that the renewable energy credit has increased the demand for solar space and water heating systems. Unfortunately, problems with the data used by Carpenter and Chester cast doubt on their findings." Peterson then concludes, from his analysis of the "better" data set, "The percentages from the table suggest that solar purchasers are much more affected by the availability of tax credits than are conservation investors."
In the late 1970s concern about energy shortages motivated Congress to establish federal income tax credits to individuals for (1) household energy conservation expenditures and (2) purchases of renewable energy systems. Under terms of the Energy Tax Act of 1978, the tax credit for conservation expenditures is 15 percent of the amount invested, with a maximum credit of $300. The credit for renewable energy systems (such as solar space or water heaters) was initially set at 30 percent of the first $2000 and 20 percent of the next $8000. In 1980, the Windfall Profit Tax Act increased the tax credit for renewable energy systems to 40 percent of the first $10,000 in qualifying expenditures-a maximum credit of $4000.
In recent years, the greenhouse problem has aroused widespread public concern. Changing Climate, a report by the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) (1983), represents a useful and timely synthesis of current scientific investigations of the impact of greenhouse gases on climate and society. The report is notable both for the research it documents and its influence on the public awareness of the issue.


In the last four days I've spent more hours sat on a coach than I have sleeping.
I've been on an adventure that's Tolkien-worthy in length, set in one of the most bizarre cities I've visited. Amsterdam has proven once again to be weirder and even more wonderful than anywhere else I've been.
I wandered into a few shops and looked around for a lighter that wasn't just about weed and women. Everyone knows that side of Amsterdam; I wanted something different. I bought my lighter for €2.50 in a little tobacco shop that lined one of the streets opposite around four other tobacco shops.
After the 12-hour journey it took to get here (coaching from England across three countries is exhausting) Amsterdam was a breath of fresh air. I went with a tour group, I Love Tour. It made it cheap, meant I was going with people that I knew and I didn't have to worry about organising an actual holiday.
The first thing we did was make it to our hostel – Hans Brinker Budget Hotel, which proudly advertises itself as the Worst Hostel in Amsterdam. The bunk beds had no ladders or rails and after the first day it did begin to have a prison vibe.
Amsterdam's food is as varied as the city itself. You can find absolutely anything you want to eat. If you look down in Leidseplein, most of the restaurants happily claim to have pizza and pasta for €5. There's pancake houses every other street if you fancy something sweet. Alternatively, you can make your way to Rembrandtplein – the main square, where you'll find restaurants, clubs and bars – and find a nice laid back restaurant called Coco's Outback. It has the same feeling as a Wetherspoons, but it sells kangaroo steak. Now I'm going to be forever disappointed that Spoons doesn't sell this.
As for things to actually do in Amsterdam, think of absolutely anything you want to do and Amsterdam probably has it.
You can rent a bike for a day to get around the city. There are three times more bikes in Amsterdam than people; I think by this point some have cemented into the buildings. If, like me, you can't ride a bike, just watch yourself when walking; when you put a single toe into the bike lane about eight or nine bikes will appear from nowhere solely to try and hit you. We opted instead for a canal cruise.
Imagine you are sat on the dock waiting for your little glass boat to come pick you up. You were at a bar crawl last night. Six amazing bars and a t-shirt later, you're feeling a little worse for wear. Then, you see a boat coming down the canal. Not your boat, but a privately owned one. Proudly emblazoned across the front is the name Willy Willy. The captain is sat in his chair in a matching navy blue Nike tracksuit, wearing a classic sailor's hat but backwards. As you watch this idiot sail past the dock, he leans back in his chair, puts his feet up on the wheel and begins to steer with them. You look at your friends in amazement. Look at this jerk showing off! Then, in a move nobody could ever expect, still driving with his feet, the captain of Willy Willy reaches down, pulls a trumpet from nowhere and begins to play a jazz melody as he sails away. None of you catch a picture of this mystery sailor – it all happened so fast.
Amsterdam will forever be the weirdest city I have visited. Like my lighter, it is so full of colour and things I can't explain, but something about it works. After three intense days of getting lost in this amazing place I feel like Amsterdam has chewed me up and spat me out again. My shoes have holes in them and my feet are a battered mess – but I wouldn't trade it in for the world.
My feet don't look too bad in this picture but you should see them in real life!

Taxes. Nobody likes them; everybody pays them. I'm sure when you considered buying your Siena Round Rock TX home you heard about the potential tax savings. Now you own a home in Siena and pay your own property taxes for Williamson County and Hutto ISD. You want to pay as little as you have to, because who would want to pay more? The good news is that you can reduce your property taxes by claiming a homestead exemption!
The address on your driver's license must match the address you are claiming the HS exemption on.
How much is my homestead exemption in Siena Round Rock?
Texas law requires school districts provide a $25,000 exemption for property tax. So if your home is appraised at $100,000 and you qualify for a homestead exemption, you pay school taxes as if your home was worth $75,000. Taxing units also have the option to offer a separate exemption, which will vary based on where you live. Williamson County offers a $3000 exemption for the special tax collected to farm-to-market roads. With your HS exemption, your county cannot raise the appraised value of your home by more than 10% each year, even if the actual value is greater. With the current rate of appreciation for many homeowners, this has saved many people a lot of money over the past few years!
What other exemptions are available in Siena Round Rock TX?
How do I apply for my homestead exemption in Siena Round Rock?
You can apply for FREE for your HS exemption by completing and turning in the correct form to your local county tax office. For Williamson County, you can also apply online. When you purchase a home, you will likely receive many official looking pieces in the mail offering services to file your HS exemption for you for a fee. THIS IS A SCAM. Please save yourself some money by filling out and mailing in the form yourself! You can apply for your HS exemption from January 1 – April 30 in the year after you purchased your home.
If you have questions about your homestead exemption, property taxes or any other real estate question, you can contact me or call/text me at any time. I hope you have found all of this information helpful!


Sandberg out and about – Newly-built house.
On one of the few rainy days this summer, I visited Ida and her family, in their newly-built house just outside Borås. She had just finished decorating and wallpapering one of the children's rooms with the Eden wallpaper, and the bedroom is finished in the Skog pattern from Sandberg Wallpaper.
Ida, who normally works as a creator and freelance designer, was at home on parental leave with Sigge on the day of my visit.
Sigge, just like his mother, is immensely social and extrovert. He was more than happy to be in every picture. Wherever I went, he made sure that he slipped into the photograph, a really charming little lens louse.
When did you build the house?

problem with interface, should i get a new one?
i am currently using a terratec phase 26 usb audio interface, which as of late has been having some problems. I always used to run the interface without asio on (if im honest im not too sure what asio is!) but lately, whenever i try to record anything, all you hear is a constant and loud crackling, and the guitar track i have recorded is extremely distorted. Yesterday i tried to reinstall the drivers and i started the interface in asio mode, this was fine when using reason 4 as i could hear the playback perfectly. However my pc didnt appear to recognise the card and neither did adobe audition, so i could not record in any tracks or hear playback from windows media player etc....then when i turned asio off the pc recognised the card again.
I'd imagine it'd be the case that all my soundcard inputs are fried? so i should maybe buy a new audio interface. I currently have my guitar running into a line 6 pod 2.0 so i would need an interface that allows me to record instruments to a high quality, and also with very low latency as i hope to have an electronic drumkit as a midi controller that controls BFD etc through cubase. Would anyone recommend an interface between £100-300? i was looking at fast track pro or presonus firebox, are they ok?
Er... you know it's not possible to record audio from an external source in Reason 4... right?
yes sorry mate, should have said...i was recording into adobe audition, which used to be ok..but now when i am recording i cant get a decent signal at all..i am getting cubase soon, so i need an interface that i can plug my line 6 pod 2.0 into so that i can record my guitar.. and also for recording midi drums.
Which version of Cubase are you going for?
I ask'cos' the Emu 0404usb 2.0 is still my favourite modestly priced AI and it comes bundled with Cubase LE and that should keep you out of mischief for a time and probably has a money saving upgrade to better things.
