I've been trying to put my mac pro to sleep, but it keeps turning back on

I put it to sleep, then about 20-30 mins later, it simply turns back on, thus making my utilities bill more expensive, ideas?

just shut it off, even less power being used, and mac pros start up in like 3 seconds.

You have a mac pro and final cut takes forever to open? Something is wrong with that clause.

If you were trying to be funny, go back to your c++ programing, its obviously much more than 1337 than anyone else.
