Validation redundancy. When save is called, the data passed to it in
the first parameter is validated using CakePHP validation mechanism.
Read more on Models -> Saving your data.
Also, the validation errors are already available to the view so no
need to set them. Try bake and see what it does to get a better feel
of the cake way.
