Subaru Forester Air Conditioning Problems
mjb59 Posts: 1The AC on my 2009 Forester (58,000 miles) quit working. The compressor makes a lot of noise (rattles) when the AC is turned on. I took it to the dealer and was told I had a clog in the system. They said the rattle was due to the compressor pulling vacuum on the low side and that pressure on the high side was over 200 lbs. I was told there was no way to find the clog and the only sure way to fix it was to replace all components in the system. Total cost around $3,000.
I would like to know if there are any other options.0
I had another problem with my a/c this summer. When I would drive on the interstate with the a/c on and then get off, the car would overheat. I just had the head gasket replaced 18 months ago so I didn't think it was that again. I took it to an awesome mechanic and discovered the connection to the second fan was not working properly. He fixed that at minimal cost and now it works perfectly.0

This does not sound right. In 5 decades of car ownership I have not heard of a "clog" in the AC system. Also, being unable to find the problem, and needing to replace the whole system, and the cost of $3,000, all sound wrong. It is well worth seeking a second opinion from another dealer or a good independent shop.0
I can imagine debris causing a clog, but the price sure does sound high.
Funny thing is they usually leak...0
Over the years on various cars we have had such problems as a plugged evaporator drain, intermittent cooling, minor refrigerant leaks, an untended leak where loss of refrigerant and its lubricating properties ruined the compressor, and a couple of failed compressor clutches. But no clogs.0
I had a leaky compressor on a '91 Ford Escort GT.
I was mad because the A/C was a $460 option, but fixing it cost $700 at the time. And I had just serviced the A/C the year before.
The shop gave me a break and didn't charge me for the freon the 2nd time.0
cydennis Posts: 1Hello, my Forester is doing the exact same thing and dealer recommends head gasket replacement. Can you tell me exactly what second fan connection was not working properly on your car? What is the "second fan" and where is it located? Thanks very much - you might save me a ton of money!0
The second fan is located on the passenger side of the car at the very front right behind the headlight. Good luck0
vasubaru12 Posts: 1My AC in my 2009 Forester started blowing hot air about a year after I bought it (bought it in July 2008). I took it to the dealer and they couldn't find a leak but did replace what they called a Shrader valve on it and they put more freon in it and it worked pretty good for 2 years. Now I have about 72,000 miles on the car and it stopped working at the beginning of the summer. Didn't take it to the dealer because it wasn't under warranty. Took it to another garage and they said that my compressor made a lot of noise and the pressure was off on it and they quoted me about $700 to replace the compressor. I actually found a used one and had another garage put it on and paid about $400 total. It worked for about a week and half and now all the freon is leaked out again. The garage that put the compressor in thinks it is something else. I believe this all stemmed from the first time I took it to the dealer. I think they give you outrageous prices I know that when I talked with them about the compressor they said it would be between $1200 and $2000 to fix it. I am emailing Subaru because I keep being told by mechanics that this should not be happening on this new of a car.0
baires60 Posts: 30WOW that is a new car practically, my car 2010 subaru forester had a problem and blew hot air at the beginning of the summer - I took it to the dealer and they said they found a leak and replaced the evaporator? Whatever it was, they needed to wait for a part to fix it. It works great now but after hearing your story I am waiting to see what happens in a couple of years, I got the extended warranty so I guess if it does happen again I am covered either way - well as long as it's not over 70K or 7 years old. I don't like it when things that major already go out within the first 15 months of a car's life.0
arcana1 Posts: 1I had the same problem but had it fixed at the dealer yesterday. The mechanic told me it was rust on the clutch plate.. He showed me what he did. You move the fluid bottle out off the way, then remove the cover plate that protects the belt.
Here is the best part, you spray WD-40 or similar onto the clutch plate and in between the compressor and clutch plate.
Put the cover plate and bottle back in place.
Worked like a charm
Another dealer quoted $1500. for the fix. this dealer charged their minimum 1 hour labour but anyone with a socket set could do it themselves.0
rogerh1 Posts: 1Hi,
My 2009 Subaru Forrester is having related problems - whenever I turn on the front window defrost, fuse #22 blows. I took it to the dealer and they told me I need to replace the compressor, cost = $1000.
Seems like too young of a car to have this kind of issue.
techmarcom Posts: 1I have a 2004 Forester with 146k miles. The AC words at the start, but after running for about 15-45 minutes, the air stops being cold. If I turn it off for about 5-10 minutes, I can turn it on and have cold air again.
Just got it recharged the other day, but noticed the problem again this afternoon.
Anyone else experience this? Any ideas? I'm not about to sink $300 into an AC repair with this many miles.0
Perhaps the refrigerant is leaking out of a bad seal. Low refrigerant can cause intermittent cooling as the compressor loses and regains suction. And maybe turning off the AC for awhile can allow what refrigerant is left to drain back to the compressor.0
quark613 Posts: 5See my previous posts #14, 16 and 25 - this sounds an awful lot like what was happening to me. Turned out to be the a/c clutch - replaced in 2010 and haven't had a lick of trouble since.0
nanasara Posts: 1I have a 2006 Forrester with well over 100,000 miles. Car still runs great, but the A/C only blows on auto setting. Air is cool, but not as cold as we would like and takes a long time to cool passengers in the back seat. Last summer was so hot here in Texas and it was almost unbearable. Any idea what the problem could be? What could make it only work on auto setting?0
chawkfan71 Posts: 1I own a 2011 Forester with 10,000 miles. Since day one of running my AC the compressor makes a chirping noise when it releases. The faster the speed the louder it gets. I have taken it in to be serviced two times and I keep getting told that this is a normal noise for this model. Just wondering if anyone else has this problem??? I have been in other Foresters and didn't hear this noise.0
xwesx Fairbanks, AlaskaPosts: 12,049I've never heard a chirp in mine. I have a 2010 Forester.2014 Audi Q7 TDI, 2008 and 2013 Subaru Forester(s), 1969 Chevrolet C20 Pickup, 1969 Ford Econoline 100, 1976 Ford F250 Pickup0
Our 2009 2.5i Limited's HVAC is also quiet.0
I own 2011 forester since oct 2011. After a few weeks of using my AC and it sounding normal, it started making a LOUD click and a LOUD buzzing noise by the compressor (buzzing lasts from 3 to 10 seconds) when I would first push the AC button to turn on the compressor. It sounds the worst first start up of the day or afterthe car sits for a while. After it males that noise and while it's running it sounds and works normal.
I brought it to Subaru service and they said it sounded normal as they compared it to another 2011 Forester.
I know it is not Normal. If it was it would have sounded like that from day one. It is also starting to get worse.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Can anyone tell me what they think can be slowly going wrong?
However it does not make a constant chirp noise like yours. I'm suspecting yours is a belt or pulley problem.0

I have a 2005 Forester (89,000 miles) with the same problem. It is, apparently, not unusual.
The A/C clutch is burned and slips when the engine and/or the clutch gets hot. A new compressor/clutch is required. The clutch cannot be repaired or replaced by itself). Price from local Subaru dealer: $649, plus $9 for a replacement bracket. That's without labor. Total price is "around $1,200."
The best price from a trustworthy local independent garage: $918.
My Subaru dealer says the $9 bracket is the cause of the problem.0
jebrown9 Posts: 1The XT I bought new in June '03 now has 84K miles. I've loved nearly everything about it except for the HVAC system. The A/C has never been powerful. I think the problem is that even when the A/C is OFF, and even when the temp dial is all the way to the cold end (i.e. heat is completely turned off), this system still warms the ambient outside air by about 5 degrees. If the air outside is 72 degrees, then the air from the dash vents is 77 degrees, and so forth. When the car was new and under warranty, I asked the dealer to find out why. They reported that everything in the HVAC system was running correctly. Long story short: I still have the exact same problem: The system always heats the incoming air by about 5 degrees. Result: I have to run the A/C more than ought to be necessary, and it also reduces the A/C capacity to cool the interior on really warm days.
My guess is that a damper in the system that is supposed to blend air from the heater core with air from outside is not completely closing when the head dial is completely off, so that some heat is always flowing.
Has anyone else with a 2003-2006 Forester had a similar problem? If so, has it been corrected, and how?0
cardsfan66 Posts: 1The central dashboard vents on my 2010 with 37,000 miles blow cold air from the passenger side vent but warm air from the driver side vent? These vents are side-by-side yet one blows cold and the other warm? Result is the car interior never gets cool.0
I opted for the dealer replacement of the A/C unit. Cost: $1,045, including dealer rental car for the day. Ridiculous, but done -- thankfully -- before the recent 90+ degree weather. Here's hoping the replacement lasts eight years.0
robert142 Posts: 18only works on unlock. have to manually lock. dealer wants a lot of $$ to replace with a new one. my friend says that it could be micro soldered as a fix.
anyone else have this problem....and if so what did you do?0
bell15 Posts: 1
I have a 2005 Forester. I had to have the engine replaced. Following this, the air conditioner broke. I have had it in twice to have the freon changed and tested for leaks and it still blows cold and then shuts down. This seems to be a common problem for Foresters and I'm interested in the range of remedies that seem to be offered here. I have never had air conditioning problems before with any car.0
sheldomsmith Posts: 1If you ARE hitting your high-pressure switch and the compressor keeps cutting in and out, you need to let out a bit of refrigerant as it's overcharged. Just press the nozzle in on the Air Conditioner line above the intercooler (or the one you used to recharge the system, usually along the firewall). Let out small, short bursts until it stops cutting in and out. Some people will get all crazy if you do this (and that I'm even recommending it), claiming you are ruining the environment and so on, but like I said, it's no different than having a leak or getting in an accident where it breaks a line. Plus, most shops do this as well if they overcharge it.0

That's all that need's to be said about Sven being caught!
Would have been funny if they could have got him to call Becks as well
Otherwise, great team. I have a feeling they'll choke though, they always do. However with the quality of players they have it "shouldn't" happen!

On paper, they seem to have the best collection of players since, oooooh, when I were a lad and obviously everything was better then than it is now - just look how long you have to wait for a bus now and what about the price of things in the shops. For instance, only the other day I wanted a quarter of those shrimp sweet things and those candy bananas we had when I was a boy. I gave the girl behind the counter a shilling and she looked at me down her nose the kids nowadays they have absolutely no respect for the elderly. I think they ought to pick that Jimmy Greaves again - it was unfortunate how he got injured in the last World Cup but that West Ham player Hurst, he did well. Got three in the final against the Bosche - ha! That'll teach them for scaring my sister Emily when that Hindenburg flew over. Mister Ramsey, I'm sure, will have everyone ready but I think Brazil will take some stopping. Someone said the other day that they thought that.... I'm sorry, what was the question again?

When I switched on Sky News earlier they went live to some school where Sven and his tart were doing something or other for Football for Unity - I had to chuckle at all the hacks who had made their way over there hoping for sound byte over Sunday's 'revelations' - and of course they were all totally ignored.Originally Posted by Scaly piscine

V Subscription Price, $2.00 per Ysar 'Sandstone Center ef ths World" COUNCIL HOLDS MEETING; LIGHT RATE MAY 8E RAISED TWO ARE APPOINTED TO MARK •APETV ZONES—WILL BE IN EFFECT BOON A regular meetlne of tho village council was held In tbe council chamber Tuesday night, passing on many subjects of Importance. The marking of safety sones on all Amherst streets was a matter of considerable discus- slon and upon the recommendation of the council, Marshal William Miller and Street Commissioner Christ Brucker were authorised to lay out the safety sones in the down-town streets. Crossings will be marked out on Church street to safeguard the school children, and the children will bo Instructed to observe the crossings. The crossings will all be marked tn white. At the corner of Church street and Park avenue all crossings will be marked as well as the line marking the distance at which machines must park from the corner. Safety sones will also be designated on Main street at the Cleveland Southwestern station, to protect passengers from passing autos. Park avenue will also be laid out In spaces along each curb indicating the angle at-which autos must be parked. The spaces will be marked on a thirty degree angle along each side of tho street and all drivers who fall to park their cars within the space will be liable to prosecution. With the space allotted to each car designated, only a limited number of machines will be allowed parking apace on Park avenue. This plan will enable drivers to back out of the parking space without danger of collision with adjacent machines. The system has been tried out In many other cities and is a remedy to many traffic evils. It will cut down the danger of accidents because It will give both pedestrians and drivers an unobstructed view of the crossings. It will also allow more space in the cob ter of the street for autos to seis. There will also be a crossing marked out on Park avenue about half way between Church street and Main strset to enable pedestrians to cross tho strset without walking to either of the corners to cross. The pew system wilt be pat into effect soon. Light Roto May Be Raised. C. W. Hearn asa* P. D. Barber of the board of public service met with the council to discuss questions arising in connection with the village electric lighting plant. Tho matter of rates was brought up and the members of the board stated that they have planned to increase the minimum rate from fifty cents to ninety cents. It was stated that many consumers do not use over the minimum rate and that the revenue derived from them does not pay the cost of installing tho meter, which is nearly twenty dollars per consumer. With the minimum rate at ninety cents, it is thought that the present deficiency will be cleared up. The regular rate per kllowat will not be changed by the rise In the minimum rate. The board of public service reported that there are now four hundred and seventy-two meters in Amherst and that if six hundred consumers can be obtained the Electric Light Company will be self-supporting. J. B. Johnson of the Lorain County Electric company, Is to meet with the local board soon to study the local situation In regard to rates. A special factory rate will be discussed. Several concerns are now purchasing current from the Electric Light company and u special rate for them is being contemplated. Several new street lights will be ln- atalled on South Lake street soon. Residents of that street have tiled requests tor the lights. , A resolution was passed at the meeting to submit to the voters ot Amherst at the November election an additional three mill levy to make up a deficiency caused by a new bill passed some time ago. The bill provides that 2 66-100 mills should be set aside from the allowances to municipalities to be Used In * weak school districts throughout the state. As a result, the village received about $6,000 less this year than last. Residents of Martin avenue have asked the council to put in a sewer ou that street and residents of Lake street have also asked that * street lights be put on that street, and unless tho additional levy of three mills is Approved st the coming election the Improvement asked tor will not be made. It was rumored that the additional levy was for the Improvement of Milan avenue, but the money will bo used tor Improvement In all parts ot the town. * SCHOOL ENROLLMENT HEAVIER THIS YEAR HIGH SCHOOL ATTENDANCE NOT AS LARGE AS LAST YEAR— ORADE8 HAVE; INCREASE School opened yesterday morning for regular session with a greatly increased enrollment, the exact number of which has not been set on account of many students failing to register the first day. There Is a decrease, however, in the enrollment in the high school, due to the fact that both Brownhelm and South Amherst have high schools this year, The enrollment this year Is 141 and the enrollment last year was 160, which Is a decrease of nine students. For the past few years there have been over twenty-flve. students coming from South Amherst and Brownhelm. The grades are overcrowded this year as was the case last year, and the assembly room of the town hall Is being used as a class room. All the rooms are filled to their capacity. One advantage this year over that of last is that the first grade and tho sixth gradea can now attend a full day's session. Mr. Powers stated In a short assembly In the high school that there will be fifty-si* freshmen enter high school next year from Amherst alone and that the enrollment in the grades would be increased by over fifty students. He also stated that by the end of the week that he would be able to state the exact number of students en rolled in the entire school this year. CITY FOOTBALL ELEVEN TO HOLD REGULAR PRACTICE The city football team, which Is be lug managed hy Oeorge Bailey this •'''" mi iii. held Its first practice Tuesday evening on Beaver Court. Real practice was not indulged In as Captain Ludwig wishes to get a set of signals in working order before placing the men In their positions. There has been a minor that the team wus to be composed of nearly all out-of-town players. That statement can be disregarded as many of the old Amherst stars will be In the lineup. They are planning to play their first game on September 25. The team has not been selected as yet but will be either Ashtabula or Elyrla.

Secondary schools urged to reveal their musical talent in young composer competition
Secondary schools across the country are being invited to put forward their most enthusiastic and talented composers for the national Sibelius Student Composer of the Year Competition.
Now in its second year, the competition has been expanded to cover three genres of music – film, classical/contemporary and jazz composition – and features a stellar line-up of judges including Dario Marianelli, Oscar-winning composer of the score for Atonement and music education ambassadors Howard Goodall and Lord Puttnam.
Sibelius, whose music notation software is used by over 75 per cent of UK secondary schools, is running the competition for 10-18 year olds for a second year to highlight the growing importance of technology in unleashing musical creativity in young people. Entries to the competition can be created in any music software, not only Sibelius. For the film category students are asked to compose a soundtrack for a one-minute film clip. In both the jazz and classical/contemporary categories students will compose a 1-4 minute piece for up to eight players. The competition is being supported by The British Film Institute (BFI) and the National Film and Television School (NFTS).
Says Sibelius Managing Director Jeremy Silver, 'This competition is a real opportunity for students to be heard and discovered by some of their heroes, and hopefully to launch themselves on the way to a career in music. We were astounded by the accomplished level of entries last year – some from students as young as 11 – and can't wait to hear this year's compositions.
'Increasingly students are turning on their computers to compose all kinds of music. It's really exciting how much more accessible composition has become. We have a unique tradition of music education in this country and the recent increase in the number of students choosing to study music at A Level shows that new technology is making the subject even more attractive for many students.'
Music teachers and students are being encouraged to register their interest in the competition right away at www.sibelius.com/studentcomposer in order to receive information on how to submit entries and reminders as the deadline approaches. The final deadline for entries is September 30th.
Last year's winner of the 16-and-under category William Church, from Shenfield High School in Brentwood, Essex, whose prize included a visit and master class from film composer Michael Price (Hot Fuzz and Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring), says, 'I felt proud knowing that such top professionals rated my composition highly. I would recommend the competition to everyone – writing music creatively is something that any musician can enjoy doing'
This year prizes include a live performance of the winning compositions and masterclasses with leading composers and musicians plus cash and Sibelius software prizes for the student and a Sibelius software multi-pack for their school. Winners and runners-up in the film category will also have their entry screened at the BFI Southbank.
Music education ambassador Howard Goodall, who is joining the judging panel for the second year says, 'It's great that Sibelius is providing this opportunity once again for students to make music. I was blown away by some of the entries in the competition last year.
'The compositions were sophisticated and imaginative in the way they created effect, mood, colour and how they reflected or drove the narrative. I'm very much looking forward to judging this year's trail-blazers.'
In addition to extra categories, this year's competition also sees the introduction of a public judging element where members of the public are asked to go online to choose their favourites from a short-list created by the judges. The result of the public vote in each category will carry the same weight as one of the star judges
About Sibelius - Sibelius develops the world's bestselling music notation software used by over 180,000 musicians and music educations around the world. Oscar-wining film composers, world-famous classical and jazz musicians and all major sheet music publishers rely on Sibelius for its legendary print quality and ease of use. Sibelius is used in over 75% of all secondary schools in the UK, as well as high schools around the world. Additionally, the Sibelius Education Suite includes the word's best-selling software for music theory and aural training, and the fastest-growing music software for elementary/primary school music lessons.

A quick chat with author Terry Ruscin might change your mind if you think you know all you need to know about Henderson County's past.
A quick chat with author Terry Ruscin might change your mind if you think you know all you need to know about Henderson County's past.
Off the top of his head, Ruscin can explain how Jewish leaders years ago organized the Agudas Israel synagogue in town, detail the route of an old path that once ran through the Crab Creek and Penrose communities, and give the names of several people who shaped the county's history without ever calling attention to themselves.
He also knows the stories of moonshiners and some celebrities who came to Hendersonville years ago.
"I'm driven to do this," Ruscin said. "We are so full of history here. I love sharing what I have learned."
Ruscin will share what he has learned with the public on Wednesday evening at Hendersonville's First Presbyterian Church when he discusses his latest book, "Hidden History of Henderson County."
Ruscin, who came to Henderson County about 10 years ago from California, will present an illustrated program about the book beginning at 6:30 p.m. He will also sign copies of the book after the program.
Ruscin's program, which takes about an hour, will follow the church's usual 5:30 p.m. dinner. The dinner costs $7, but Ruscin's program is free. Those who come to hear about the book are not required to attend the dinner.
The History Press of Charleston, S.C., published the book in July. It includes 240 illustrated pages with vintage and contemporary photographs of Henderson County's lesser known places, people and structures.
Ruscin said he wants people who read his book and see his presentation to learn more about the community and about people such as Kathleen Featherstone Williams, who helped children in the area and was active in the NAACP and the DAR. She recently died at the age of 93.
While Ruscin said he wanted much of his book to focus on the common people such as Williams who shaped Henderson County, his research also uncovered some celebrities who came to the area and stayed for a time without drawing much attention from the community.
James Brown, the Godfather of Soul, spent time in the county before his career took off, and Albert Warner, a member of the Warner Brothers Hollywood Studio family, came to Henderson County during World War II.
As he wrote the book, Ruscin said he tried to include many of the people, places and events that have not been included in other books about Henderson County's history.
He said he decided to give his presentation about the book at First Presbyterian after several people who had heard his presentation at other locations asked him to consider offering it again.
First Presbyterian seemed to be a good place to hold the event because Gayle Hamilton Stepp, the church's music director, helped Ruscin with research for the book.
"We met as potential colleagues and ended up friends," he said.
Stepp's family has lived in Henderson County for seven generations. She shared old family photographs with Ruscin and helped him find many of the people and places in his book.
"He began to put feelers out about certain things, like where is Dawn Hill," Stepp said.
Stepp tracked down information and put him in touch with the people he needed to interview for his work.
"We'd go on field trips," she said. "We'd get in the car and find certain places."
On one of their field trips, Stepp found the grave of her great-grandfather and the graves of other relatives.
Stepp said she was impressed with Ruscin's careful attention to verifying the facts in his book. He studied land records and other historical documents to make sure his information was correct.
"He wouldn't write down anything until he had documentation," she said. "What he is doing will live for several generations. I want my grandchildren and greatgrandchildren to be able to see who went before them."
Stepp said she thinks the book will appeal to Henderson County natives who want to learn more about their hometown and to newcomers who might not know about all the interesting people and places in the county.
Stepp also recommends that anyone interested in the book see Ruscin's presentation. The slide show includes photographs from the book and some that were not published.
The photographs include "pictures of old cabins and old houses, of people the way they were or some people the way they are now," she said. "It's the most beautiful slide show presentation I've ever seen. It's very professionally done, and the way he presents it is very interesting."
Ruscin said the presentation at First Presbyterian will be his last public discussion of the book before he begins work on his next project. That project will include writing two more volumes about the hidden history of Henderson County.
Ruscin decided to write the additional volumes because he had so much information from his research and much of it would not fit into the first book.
All three volumes will focus on the county's hidden history and will "recognize those wonderful souls and the spirit of this community that has been left out."
For more information about Ruscin's presentation at First Presbyterian or to make reservations for the church dinner, call 6923211.

Boy Eats Girl (US - DVD R1)
Gabe watches as the boy bites, chews, swallows, digests, and passes the girl
Nathan is in love with Jessica, but he can't find the courage to ask her out. So Nathan's best friends take the initiative and set them up on a date, but Jessica's disapproving father butts in and things fall apart. Mistakenly led to believe that Jessica went all the way with local lothario Kenneth, Nathan ends up drunk and falls victim to a careless, fatal accident. Nathan's dumbass mother steals an old voodoo book and performs a restorative ritual and brings back Nathan—as a flesh-craving zombie who sires more teen undead while trying to control his appetite for his beloved.
The problem with Boy Eats Girl is that it was already made—twice. The first time it was called My Boyfriend's Back (originally titled Johnny Zombie), and it was kind of cute, but overall not particularly memorable beyond its concept, which was of course a through back to '50s B-horror comedies like I Was a Teenage Frankenstein. More recently the same theme was revisited in Night of the Living Dorks, a German made feature which was a more amusing mix of modern zombedy, re-vitalized by Edgar Wright's genuinely awesome Shaun of the Dead, and '80s John Hughes 'classics'. If you've seen either of those films, or any other recent high school or zombie flicks, you've already seen Boy Eats Girl.
This one's been sitting on Lionsgate's shelves for two years, apparently, as I'm sure about thirty dozen other zombie movies have. Between this, Fido, and Night of the Living Dead 3D it appears that the studio will be releasing a flesh muncher flick every month for the next several years. Unfortunately, I doubt any of them will compare to Fido, which is the only zombie related movie since Shaun of the Dead to do anything truly original with the monsters.
Boy Eats Girl is hardly even a movie, it's more of a showcase for its pretty young actors, a few decently R-rated effects, and a whole lot of British pop music. The pretty young actors are actually pretty good, even with the lame dialogue and totally convenient plot contrivances. The violent effects reasonably satisfying, though they don't quite push the bad taste barrier far enough to recommend the film to gorehounds, save one sequence that does its best to out-do Braindead's lawnmower massacre, though it comes as too little too late. The music just generally isn't good.
We shouldn't expect much from a single layered disc Lionsgate let collect dust on the shelf for a few years, but Boy Eats Girl looks fairly above average in most respects. Colours are vibrant, specifically in day light sequences, and display minimal noise and artefacts. Darker scenes do not fair as well, often appearing muddy, and sometimes revealing too many chunks of low-level noise. Blacks are reasonably deep, but take on the colour of their surroundings to a certain degree throughout. Edges are softer in darker scenes, but never too soft, and details are pretty sharp without much edge enhancement.
This Dolby Digital 5.1 track doesn't quite overcome the film's obviously mediocre budget. Surround and stereo effects are sort of spiffy, but often sound like they came from an SFX library, rather than from set or foley. Dialogue is clear, or rather, as clear as such accents can be to these American ears, as is the film's music. Again, I'd like to stress the utter lameness of this soundtrack. Apparently this film was trying to imitate Shaun of the Dead's ultra hip acquired music soundtrack, but the filmmakers have mistaken 'hip' with 'insipid'.
I want to say you only get trailers, but the special features menu swears that the first trailer is actually a making of featurette. If by 'making of featurette' they mean 'really long ad', then I suppose they're correct. If you're looking to learn something about the film you're out of luck here.
To summarize, Boy Eats Girl isn't even a little bit scary, it's only as funny as its decent cast can muster, the plot is all rehash and zero intrigue, but the gore effects are just messy enough to maybe suggest a rent to really, really, desperate zombiephiles. I think that even I may be done with zombie movies for a while after this listless mediocrity festival. The disc looks and sounds better than a lot of Lionsgate low-budget releases, but has basically no extras, and an annoyingly obviously pointed soundtrack. Also, it's only actually seventy-five minutes long, the filmmaker's just drag out the end credits.

You noticed that too? Yeah, they definately have that British facial bone structure. Not to mention the 1978 throw-back hair styles.
I just don't understand what's with the late-'70s hair styles these days. They looked corny then and they look corny now.

Epic movie might not be the worst (what about this one), but is awesomely bad, it's not even 'good' bad, it's plain bad. SupermanIV is so bad is good, but Epic Movie...

In response to Sunday�s story regarding 911 service (�911 failure,� Telegram & Gazette, Jan. 27), Verizon assures the residents of Worcester County and the state that the company takes very seriously the important role it plays as part of the 911 ecosystem.
Day in and out, Verizon successfully handles thousands of calls to 911 across the state. When an issue arises, we act quickly to identify and resolve it. We then do a thorough investigation to determine the root cause and take measures to prevent a recurrence. That work is under way.
It should be noted that, during the two hours when service was disrupted on Jan. 17, the redundant 911 system worked as designed, with the exception of a small number of calls. Almost all of the 911 calls affected by the disruption were immediately rolled over to alternate emergency dispatch centers.
Regarding the reference in the story to the FCC�s inquiries into 911 service provided by Verizon in Northern Virginia last year, that issue arose as a result of a sudden and severe storm that hit the region, causing damage similar to that of a hurricane. That incident is unrelated to what happened in Worcester. Although that storm was unique, we have instituted a number of improvements based on lessons learned from that experience that will help in all areas that we serve.

Hazel Sobti dashes to center stage carrying a microphone pole, barely skirting a collision with another contestant. Two beautiful women follow her. As a guitarist in a Hawaiian shirt hams up "Rollin' on the River" for an audience bathed in blue light, the luminous beauty from India shimmies in a black dress and gold eye shadow. The three women rock their hips, belting out the song in the 2,000-seat theater at Church by the Glades in Coral Springs. Behind her, on a jumbotron, flashes the name of a reality-TV show: Recreating a Legend.
"This show gives me the chance to show my talent to the world," Sobti says in a later segment, flipping her long dark hair for the camera. "What better opportunity do I get than this?"
But the 24-year-old songstress' big opportunity turned out to be a huge disappointment. And two months later, in October 2011, Sobti found herself more prisoner than star. She says she was exploited by Recreating a Legend creator Roy Anthony Sciacca, an eccentric ex-hair-metal singer and pop memorabilia collector who has been sued dozens of times by everyone from dentists to realtors to the Beach Boys. Sobti, who always dreamed of coming to America from Southern India, says that when she finally got here, Sciacca wouldn't let her leave.
"I was stuck in Coral Springs for months, and it was tragic," she says. "The electricity would go out. We had no food. My credit card was from India, so I couldn't even use it." Billed as a cross between American Idol and the Olympics, Recreating a Legend was the latest entry in Sciacca's series of failed entertainment ventures. But unlike some of his other shows and festivals that never got off the ground, six episodes of RAL were actually filmed. Famed singers Olivia Newton-John and Betty Wright judged the contestants, as is done on The Voice. But Sciacca's twist was that he helped the women craft original songs.
"I wanted to show the world a true artist," says Sciacca, who has stunningly white teeth, Listerine-blue eyes, and thinning blond hair that cascades over his shoulders.
The wanna-be media mogul's interest in showbiz began young. Roy Sciacca (pronounced "Shocka") was born in the Bronx in 1951 and started singing when he was 2. He moved to L.A. with his artist dad and hairdresser mom at age 9 and began tooling around on the keyboard, the guitar, anything he could get his hands on. "I thought I was gonna be another superstar," he says. "And that's been stuck in my head my whole life."
His mom died when he was young, and Sciacca didn't get along with his dad. But he found a role model in his uncle, a singer in the mold of Dean Martin who was signed to Decca Records.
Sciacca became obsessed with hard rockers Van Halen, moved out of the family home at 15, and fronted bands called the End and Sciacca. He wanted to join the Air Force but "chickened out," he says. "Hair bands were my scene," he adds.
In 1986, the singer met a stunning Playboy playmate named Michele Wasa and launched the crown jewel of his life: Late Night Studios in Hollywood, California. Around that time, he also obtained 28 boxes containing original lyric sheets and other memorabilia from the Beach Boys. When a fire tragically destroyed his studio in 1990, Sciacca and Michele got married and moved to the San Fernando -Valley. They had a son and daughter in quick succession before moving to Coral Springs.
Legal trouble came about a decade later, when he formed a company called Creative Licensing International. In 2002, he sold a New Jersey couple on the idea for Powerfest, a series of five weekend-long festivals. The event was supposed to combine drag racing and artists like t.A.T.u., Twisted Sister, and Tommy Lee.
He promised Kelly and Cherry -Hartnett the fest would make $43 million in revenue, according to court records, and the couple forked over $200,000.
But instead of shows in Barcelona and Berlin, only one event took place -- in Tucson, Arizona. The Hartnetts never got their money back, and in 2008, they sued Sciacca. The Hartnetts claimed Sciacca had tried something similar in 1999, roping investors into something called the Velocity Tour. A judge decreed that Sciacca had to pay back the Hartnetts their money -- plus $50,000 in interest.
"It's amazing that he keeps getting people to give him money," says Kelly Hartnett, who regularly checks Sciacca's Securities and Exchange Commission filings and court judgments online. "I don't know one thing he's said he'd do that he actually fulfilled."
Luckily, Sciacca had his treasure-trove of Beach Boys memorabilia to fall back on. Valued at $6 million to $8 million by a London auction company, it included everything from the original sheet music for "Help Me, Rhonda" to the copyright claim for "Don't Worry Baby." The band sued, claiming Sciacca had stolen the 28 boxes.
Sciacca claimed he'd bought them at a warehouse sale. Either way, the trial revealed that Sciacca had been using the items as collateral for years and that jilted investors had made claim to them. Ultimately, the -memorabilia was sold at auction, and the proceeds were disbursed among the claimants.
Sciacca remembers the suit as a victory. "The Beach Boys was probably the worst lawsuit ever," he says. "It took me three years and a million and a half dollars, but they fell." Hurting for money, Sciacca took his first stab at reality programming. Batalla de las Americas was supposed to search across two continents to find the fifth member of MDO, the relaunch of Menudo, the Puerto Rican boy band that gave Ricky Martin his first break. Sciacca and two other cocreators enlisted the help of a woman named Patricia Valiente to conduct auditions in Honduras in 2008. Valiente said she was never paid, however. She sued Sciacca but lost when she grew tired of fighting him in court.
But there was more evidence that Batalla de las Americas was poorly planned. Sciacca booked several weeks at the James L. Knight Center in Miami to film the contest, but his $31,000 check bounced -- twice.
Just as Sciacca's show was falling apart, so was his home life. Michele was busy touring comic-book conventions as a model and waiting on a class-action settlement from Dow Chemical for a boob job gone wrong, according to court records. In 2009, she filed a restraining order saying Sciacca pushed her down stairs and threatened to kidnap her kids -- charges Sciacca strenuously denies. They separated shortly thereafter.
Divorce records show Sciacca's money problems also extended to his personal life. He contends he was making only $1,000 per week but was renting a $600,000 home and driving a Jaguar. Sciacca told the court that his company Creative Licensing International was "in severe debt."
Recreating a Legend was meant to change all that. The show was imagined as a global competition to find a new singer for Gloria Estefan's band, the Sound Machine. Sciacca teamed up with a production company called Forti Layne to bring in Wright, a Miami R&B singer from the 1970s. Sciacca also hired Frank Licari, a South Florida actor, to host -- his contract was for $55,000. The actor happened to be friends with South Florida resident and Australian-born singer Newton-John, who agreed to be a judge.
Sciacca flew in women from eight countries, then put them up two to a room. Rounding out the cast was Sobti.
Sobti grew up in Goa, India's smallest and richest state. At 17, she dropped out of high school and began acting. Eventually she was picked up for a reality singing show in Hong Kong. Although she didn't win, Sobti and three other contestants were contacted by Sciacca in 2011.
From their first lunch with Sciacca, the girls were skeptical. "We thought maybe there might be cameras set up in the apartments, that it might not even be a TV show," Sobti says. By the time filming finally began, the women's three-month visas were expiring. Only Sobti and Jenavee Valenzuela, from the Philippines, had clearance to stay for six months. They were told that the other contestants would be flown home to get paperwork sorted out and that shooting would resume shortly. So Sobti and Valenzuela stayed at their apartment in Players Club on Coral Ridge Drive, living off their $250-a-week stipends and hitting up LA Fitness.
Soon, the stipends began to taper off too. Before long, the two singers were living off of Cup Noodles and donations from the sympathetic production crew. The electricity was shut off because no one paid the bill.
One day, Sobti begged Sciacca for help.
"You guys should be thankful that I brought you here," she recalls Sciacca responding in a text.
Eventually, Sobti's manager wired her money to return home. Although there were supposed to be 12 episodes filmed, only six were produced.
Roseanna Bragg, one of RAL's producers, says Sciacca owes her almost $30,000. Bragg was willing to forgive Sciacca until she and other crew members discovered allegations that Sciacca had also ripped off blind Puerto Rican singer José Feliciano.
According to two lawsuits filed in Broward County last year, Sciacca enticed the musician to leave his old manager by promising induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, a performance at the Billboard Awards, and inclusion on a Rolling Stone list of great guitarists. True to form, none of these was delivered, a pending lawsuit alleges. One suit was filed by Feliciano and another by his manager. (Sciacca says he was completely aboveboard in the deal and calls the "Feliz Navidad" singer a "jerkoff.")
Sciacca blames the show's problems on its employees. He says producers hired their friends and paid them four times the industry standard. And he challenges anyone to come up with paperwork connecting him to a scam.
As for Sobti's claims that she was left stranded? "They were never stuck," Sciacca says. "That's weird. Those girls are in love with me."
His denial doesn't end there. Not even two dozen lawsuits and a cataclysmic fire can kill Sciacca's childhood dreams of superstardom. He claims that several "monster" channels are interested in RAL, although he can't say which ones. And he promises it will air -- he just can't say when. "I wake up in the morning, I do what I do, and I'm pretty successful," he says. "Recreating a Legend will go down in history as one of the great television shows."

Devin Burns – a former wide receiver who filled in at quarterback for Maryland last season after a spate of injuries at the position – has withdrawn from the school and is expected to transfer.
Burns, who was in his third season last fall, would have faced a logjam of quarterbacks on the depth chart in 2013. The presumed starter is C.J. Brown, who tore an anterior cruciate ligament while making a cut during a preseason practice last August.
Burns volunteered to play quarterback after Brown's injury. He had played the position in practice as a freshman before switching to receiver.
Burns had a memorable game against N.C. State. He rushed for 50 yards against the Wolfpack, showing the ability to put pressure on defenses and keep them guessing with his running ability.
But his season ended the same way it did for Brown and fellow quarterbacks Perry Hills and Caleb Rowe – with an injury. Hills and Rowe are back in 2013 along with transfers Ricardo Young and Dustin Dailey and freshman Shane Cockerille (Gilman).
Burns suffered a Lisfranc injury – in which bones in the midfoot are broken or ligaments are torn – against the Wolfpack but continued to play despite a noticeable limp. It's not certain, but the injury may have happened when a defender looped an arm around Burns' waist as he faded back in the pocket. Burns stumbled awkwardly, pushing off his left foot.
Burns finished the season 3-for-4 passing for 47 yards.

BOSTON, Mass. - The Bulldogs had a number of top five finishes as the meet concluded Friday afternoon at Boston University's Terrier Classic. Lindsay Donaldson followed up her performance from last year with another NCAA provisional qualifying time in the 3,000-meter run. She was third with a time of 9:28.42.

The 4x400-meter relay team narrowly lost to Monmouth (3:54.45), taking second with a time of 3:54.51.
In the pole vault, Ashley Nolet was fourth at a height of 3.37 meters.
The Bulldogs will be back next weekend at home for the Giegengack Invitational.
