Toshiba Regza flatscreen TVs
Posted by
At the end of December last year (2009) we purchased 2 flatscreen TVs, both Toshiba Regzas but two different models. Within a couple of months the 42 in. one developed 'garbled' audio problems and the store picked it up and took it for warranty repair to the regional authorized Toshiba repair shop. We were advised that that particular model had a known problem and needed to be retrofitted but the part was on back-order for some undetermined length of time. After waiting, doing phone follow-ups, etc., months having passed with still no repair and return of the TV, I finally (and with great difficulty) managed to get Toshiba to give us a replacement TV (different model chosen by them). This matter was concluded 2 to 3 months ago and now guess what?! Last evening the other Toshiba TV, a 40 in Regza, developed a problem. Suddenly red lines running vertically appeared across the screen - first starting more on the right and then in fairly short order spreading across to cover the lefthand side also. On looking on the internet I am finding other customers who have experienced this problem, sometimes coupled with the same audio issue we had on the other Toshiba TV, and sometimes singularly.
Having had an overall horrible experience with Toshiba regards the first TV with the audio problems I do not relish the thought of probably having to 'do war' with them now over this 2nd TV that may be 'out of warranty' by 2 or 3 days since it is only just over the 1 year mark since purchase.
I did receive a phone call from a law firm regarding the first TV issue advising that they were preparing a class action against Toshiba and wanting to know if I wished to join it. Toshiba had finally replaced that first TV with another model just before this call came in to me so I explained that the problem had ultimately been resolved. I was advised to hang on to the law firm's phone number in case I experienced additional difficulties. Looks like it might be a good thing I did just that in light of the fact we now have problems with the other Toshiba television. However, I will first phone Toshiba today and see what their attitude is this time around. If the set is just out of warranty and if the repair is somewhat inexpensive then I will probably not balk at it. However if the repair involves a costly part I will not stand for being sold two basically defective TVs.

Moved From Other Review: As an update to my recent posting regarding problems with 40 inch Toshiba Regza TV ....
I phoned Toshiba yesterday to notify them of the failure of the 2nd of the two Toshiba TVs I bought at the end of December last year and they gave me the phone number and name of their authorized repair facility for my region. I described to the Toshiba employee who answered my call that as of the day before many vertical colored lines in bands had appeared on the screen and remained there and that we had tried changing out the satellite box with another to ensure that it was the TV, not the satellite box, that was malfunctioning. I then called the repair facility and spoke with the same person who had attempted to secure for me earlier this year the part needed to fix the garbled audio problem on my 42 inch TV (this was the one I posted about that sat for months as the Toshiba authorized repair person, despite trying very hard, could never secure a part from Toshiba to fix that one, ultimately being resolved by Toshiba (kicking and screaming all the way!) replacing the set with a different model. When I described to the repairman the lines that had appeared running down the screen vertically he told me he didn't even need to come out and see this set - he knew right away what was wrong as he has seen this before and that it meant the panel had gone bad. He then went on to say that to replace a panel is cost-prohibitive since this replacement costs more than buying another television. I called Toshiba back to tell them this and they said they were sticking with the repair call route. I told them that I was not prepared to pay for a service call on top of having a 'dying' television (as the repairman described it) just to have the repairman tell me in person that the panel had gone bad (obviously, I am not going to pay for a panel replacement that is more expensive than buying another set). Toshiba they said they didn't know what they could do for me - meaning nothing. I told them I would not accept that answer and that I demanded, especially in light of having trouble with both sets of theirs I bought, that they work toward arriving at some reasonable resolution of this latest problem. I was then put on hold briefly while a 'supervisor' was consulted, ultimately being given a fax number to fax in a copy of my sales receipt. This was done by the store immediately after and no, I have not heard back from Toshiba yet. I also placed a call to their corporate office to express my thorough dissatisfaction with their quality control procedures on sets they release for sale on the market and was told somebody would call me back. I did not get a return phone call yesterday and it remains to be seen if anybody will call me back from any Toshiba source unless I phone them again (which I will do). Meanwhile, my plans for today are to contact the BBB and the State of Kentucky Consumer Affairs office. I have left a message for the lawyer who had called me previously to notify me of the class action he was preparing to advise him that my problems with Toshiba are not over after all........sigh......

Toshiba REGZA 32" LCD -- DO NOT BUY
Posted by
I purchased a 32" Toshiba REGZA LCD (32HL67U) in August 2008. Yesterday, the display portion of the unit stopped working, although the sound still comes. So basically, the TV is worthless. I contacted Toshiba customer service and they are completely unwilling to do anything for me, even though I spent $700 for a TV that lasted less than 20 months. Here's a copy of my correspondence with them in chronological order. As you'll see, Toshiba doesn't value its customers, so I suggest you not become one.

I have a 32" REGZA that I purchased in August 2008. Yesterday, the display portion stopped working, but the sound still came through. I have verified that it is not the cable box because when I switch the volume, the volume up/down graphic doesn't even appear. When I turn it on/off, the display lights up for a split second (if I'm turning the volume up/down the bar appears), but then it goes blank and all I get is the sound. Is there a fix for this? Is this still under warranty? Thanks for your help.

Dear Michael,
Thanks for writing!
I apologize for the inconvenience.
Your TV had a one year warranty from the date of purchase. You may have purchased an extended warranty from a 3rd party at the time of purchase.
Try resetting your unit by unplugging it from the electrical outlet for at least three minutes. If you continue having difficulty, I recommend having an authorized service center look at your unit.
To find a service center in your area, please reply to this email with your model number and zip code or call our Customer Solutions Department at 1-800-631-3811.
They are available Mon-Fri, 7AM to 7PM, Sat & Sun 9AM to 5PM Central Standard Time.

Thanks for your quick response.
I tried resetting the unit and still no luck.
I must say, I am terribly disappointed in my TV that only lasted 20 months. I paid around $700 for a product that only lasted 20 months...that equals $35/month. This leaves a bad taste in my mouth about Toshiba products, a brand I had previously respected very much.
I did have a two-year warranty from where I purchased the TV (Electrograph Systems), but unfortunately that company went bankrupt last year and will not honor their promise.
Are you sure there is nothing Toshiba is willing to do for me? I would hope this is a rare occasion for your product to last this short amount of time. I would appreciate it if you could inquire to a supervisor to see if Toshiba customer service would like to keep me as a loyal customer. Or, if you could put me in touch with a manager directly, my contact information follows.
I look forward to your response.

I apologize for the issue you are experiencing with the TV. It is not what we expect of our equipment. Our actual failure rate is less than 1%.
Unfortunately, we would be unable to assist with any repair costs as the unit is outside our manufacturer warranty.

Thanks for your quick response. I have found Toshiba customer service very timely in their response, but extremely unwilling to offer any help. I'm glad your failure rate is less than 1%, but it surprises me that for that 1% you are unable to offer ANY HELP WHATSOEVER. If I ran my business that way, I wouldn't be in business. I guess this means that you bring in enough customers to offset the longtime customers who buy your products over and over again. I promise I will not purchase any more Toshiba products until Toshiba provides me with more than an address of a repair center. I also promise to repost this correspondence and speak about this negative experience on my blog, Facebook page, Twitter page and other online venues until Toshiba steps up to the plate and values me as a customer who simply asked for a little assistance with an expensive TV that lasted such a short time instead of hiding behind a piece of paper.

Unfortunately, this is the electronics world we live in now. It sucks, but without an extended warranty, your options are to fix the existing TV or buy a new one.

Stay Away From Toshiba, Worst TV. Worst Customer Service
Posted by
LEBANON, TENNESSEE -- Iâm highly dissatisfied & DISGUSTED with DEFECTIVELY DESIGNED TOSHIBA DLP TV & Toshiba America Corporationâs extremely poor & pathetic customer service of corporate staff handling complaint.
I have bought Toshiba DLP 72 inches TV model #72HM195. Paying several thousands of dollars on 9/13/06. Within 4 months within less than 150 hrs of usage Lamp failed, Contacted Toshiba.
Toshiba replaced lamp stating usual life of lamp is 6000-8000 hrs but because of shipping & vibrations it must have failed in less than 150 hrs.
Now new good lamp blew up again in 13 months with limited usage of about 500-600 hrs instead of lasting 6000-8000 hrs AS WARRANTED.
Contacted Toshiba customer svc at 800-457-7777 spoke to several customer service reps & supervisor RICK PHILLIPS, Rick stated Lamp has warranty for 8000 hrs or 6 months & not replacing blown lamp since lamp lasted more than 6 months. This lamp lasted less than 10% of warranted life HRS & one needs to use 45 hrs daily to get 8000 hrs in 6 months. Average working family use TV for only 1-2 hrs daily. Rick Phillips could not comprehend or did not want to understand issue; He further stone walled any further escalation & refused rudely to provide any information about corporate & presidentâs office.
After extensive research found & contacted Mr. J D Powell, Customer solution manager @ 615-257-4094 at Toshiba America Corporation, 1420 B Toshiba Dr, Lebanon TN 37087.
J D Powell stated âToshiba did realize original lamp installed in TV was defective, so Toshiba warranted defective lamps for 2 yrs. & hence Toshiba replaced that Lamp. Now New replaced lamp has same 6 months /8000 hrs warranty. This again blew up lasting only 500-600 hrs. So technically Toshiba warranted initial pre-installed defective lamp for 2 yrs but equally bad replacement lamp is warranted for 6 months only & flatly refused replacement.
In vain, one more attempt made to contact at Toshiba Corporate HQ, Wayne NJ. Spoke to Barbara Hayes, complaint Manager @973-628-8000. Barbara Hayes is no help either. Beware Barbara Hayes & J D Powell will not return your calls despite leaving several messages so one has to be persistent.
Toshiba knows very well that this is their defective product with defective design but does not want to admit. On line research shows numerous complaints of premature lamp failure & needing replacement every 6 months and on average usage of only few hundred hrs, consistent with our experience. Other brands TV lamp will be lasting several thousands of hours as promised. Toshiba not only failed to provide reliable product but is also deceiving consumers with extremely poor customer service.
Now onwards I decided & expressed to Toshiba corporate officers as well about not to buy any Toshiba product after this traumatic experience of failing to stand behind defective product & providing pathetic customer service for DLP TV I spent several thousands of dollars.

Soaring Consumer on 02/02/2009:
The way it is supposed to be is that the warranty on the replacement part continues where the warranty on the original part left off, so from the point of replacement you should have 20 months remaining on the warranty for the part.
The lower limit of 6 months would be if you had less than 6 months remaining on the original warranty.
So I think that they are defrauding you.
lobo65 on 02/03/2009:
As I have stated on here before, do not buy a rear projection TV. Not only is it a dying technology, but the inconvenience (and cost) of the bulbs dying is enough to turn me off from buying one. Only a few brands are still carrying them like Mitsubishi, and Samsung. Everyone else is embracing LCD and Plasma. OLED sets are the next big thing, but they are still too expensive right now.

TV Remote -Same button broke on 3 different ones
Posted by
PEORIA,, ILLINOIS -- I purchased this television in May, 2005. Within a year, the volume down button stopped working. Toshiba told me it was a bad sensor, and they replaced the remote under the warranty. 14 months after I received the new remote, the same button broke. I asked Toshiba to replace the remote, because the same button broke again. They refused, because the part was no longer under warranty. I wrote to the Illinois Attorney General's office and I filed a complaint. Very soon after that, Toshiba called and said they would replace the remote. & months after I received the second remote, the same button broke again. All of the other buttons worked fine on all of the remotes, except on this third remote, the volume up button was starting to fail. I called Toshiba again, and again they refused to replace the remote. I told them that there is no way I was causing this problem, because all of the other buttons were working, and because I don't believe I could break the same button three times. I sent another complaint to the Illinois Attorney General, and Toshiba never responded. I am stuck with a remote where I cannot adjust the volume on the TV, and I cannot manipulate the menus. Why should I buy a fourth remote that is likely to have the same problem.
Also, two months after I attached a Hi-Def DVR to the HDMI input on the TV, I could no longer get a picture using that input. Comcast tried several DVR boxes and several HDMI cables, but none of them worked. I added this issue to the second complaint with the Illinois Attorney General, but Toshiba never responded.
I would recommend that anyone who does not want to have this experience think twice about buying anything from Toshiba. They obviously don't care about their customers.
I want Toshiba to continue to replace the remote as long as this particular button keeps failing. This is obviously a design flaw and not a end-user issue. I want them to pay to repair the HDMI input. The technology used in this TV was not up to par.

Developed black vertical lines in screen. Toshiba and many other brands of LCD are failing and Toshiba is fully aware of the problem but playing dumb. Tell them your out of warranty and they blow you right off. They won't make good on the sets.
Just google black vertical lines in LCD TV's and you can't imagine why there's no class action lawsuits out there. Stay away of Toshiba for you next purchase, TV's a lemon and there customer no service is useless.
One good thing though, the customer service wasn't a guy in India with bad English named "Bob" at least in this case an American screws ya.

Sparticus on 10/06/2009:
I don't get the impression the author is asking for something for nothing... I'd be pissed if my new TV started failing after 2 years as well. Particularly since LCD tv's are marketed for their long life (up to 20 years the screen is supposed to last).
2 years is ridiculous. Toshiba is a decent brand too. Sad. We went with a Samsung. A friend works in the display business and she told me LG and Samsung are really the only two they ever use... So we went with the Samsung...
Thanks for the review. Good to know about this brand. Curious what other brands are having this issue.
Tom20349 on 10/09/2009:
Thanks Sparticus, your comment is right on the money.
The TV man was out today. The second he saw the TV he knew it was a bad display costing over 1,000 to replace. He mentioned a defect called MURA in the LCD it occurs during manufacturing. I looked this up on line he's not lying. And Toshiba and several other company's are aware of it but refuse to make good on them....Stay away from Toshiba and there Customer no service. I have a great web site that is all about TV repair as well. If you need it. I'm going to have to sell my 2,000 TV I'm still paying for and buy an LG or Samsung. Apparently Samsung has an excellent rep on LCD's Thanks for the input.
PepperElf on 10/09/2009:
In fact, for me to encounter a review for a company I've actually worked for is pretty rare.
Of the four companies, two have been out of business since the early to mid 90s so most people don't bother reviewing them anymore. Of the remaining two... one is a pizza job that was 18 years ago, and the other... well not many people review the military here.
but still, if there's a review where I can honestly say I've had employment with that company you can be assured I would actually say so.

Hey thanks Tom excellent review and great comment Sparticus. I'm actually in the market for an LCD TV. I'll be sure to avoid toshiba at all cost in favor or Samsung or LG.

To those people here who stand behind the company's "warranty's"... the next several thousand dollar purchase you make and the product takes a dump just after the warranty's ends. Don't come here and say a word. Suck it up and spend another several grand for another set.
When a 2.000.00 TV goes bad in two years it's not a "Warranty" issue per se the company's are responsible to stand behind their new products not just quote that long unreadable warranty. Warranty's didn't make this country and it's products great quality and pride from factory workers did. What's wrong with this country is no more quality products. We once made a TV that lasted 20 years! and those were new products then?? Granted technology has increased costs have gone up but why do the sets last 5 years now on the average? these manufacturers knew exactly what they were doing when they made these set's and they know what corners they cut. Its our rights as American consumers to expect high quality products. I work to damn hard for my money to get taken. You just keep standing up for big business CSD hope you'll change that tune when you get ripped off. And you will trust me. You'll change your tune real quick..

Tom, I am smart enough to ALWAYS buy the EXTENDED warranty. It costs up front, but pays off at the end. Especially since Americans today are a throw away bunch. Companies are making things disposable BECAUSE Americans are so wasteful. So, blame your fellow man.
PepperElf on 10/20/2009:
There was an accusation that I or the others here were Toshiba employees because we didn't automatically agree.
My response was simply to list where I have worked to point out how inaccurate that assumption is.
As for something that takes a dump right after the warranty ends... you know, my boyfriend's father has a personal habit... He takes appliances in BEFORE the warranty expires just to make sure they're not about to break.
And most equipment WILL exhibit warning signs that there's something wrong going on before they break.
Preventive maintenance rocks.

PepperElf on 10/20/2009:

Well... back in the Navy we did have a Preventive Maintenance System. And yes it was called PMS.
but it's a valid concept. They found they saved money by doing small maintenance tasks periodically, because those small tasks would either prevent bigger failures from happing down the line...
and sometimes the PMS checks lead to early detection of major failures, so we could get the equipment fixed before it went belly-up.

For the sake of this conversation I should have had some warning sign in the first year and taken it in right....wrong, no warning signs, but nice try. Preventive maintenance? how do you do preventive maintenance on an LCD TV? do you change the LCD oil in it every 3700 hours? Its a TV, you plug it in and turn it on, there is no maintenance. What are you talking about.
I used to repair electronics there is absolutely no rule on how things break or when. PMS? I hope the navy doesn't really have PMS, its bad enough around my house...

PepperELF your just ridicules, you keep reminding us of your military back ground please stop.
Your not the only female to join the military that we had to carry....
Common sense dictates you have to do regular maintenance on everything! and that if you don't things fail, but not ON A TV... the military didn't corner that market on maintenance. So please stop trying to impress everyone with your military experience.
I maintain my cars, home, lawn mower, computers, etc etc, what makes you think the military only does "preventive maintenance"
Ladyscot??? not willing to pay for the best, uh...what do you consider "the best"...I thought I bought a name brand TV..Could have fooled me.
Any guys have anything to say here,,lots of females arguing with me, about what exactly I am unsure,, probably females who maintain nothing to begin with.
This forum is to exchange information about bad products to help people steer clear of them, that's all I have done here. That's the point of this site,,its not a chat site lady's..
Toshiba is a bad product not because I just say so, read a little you might find the Toshiba REGZA line is having many issues.
I was just informing people to help them, and I get attacked, by girls none the less who most likely never fixed anything worthwhile in there lives to even speak of let alone trying to provoke a fight in the wrong venue.. Ladyscot: It's not about right and wrong??? It's about my personal experience with Toshiba.... and unless have information to the contrary I suggest you simply read and learn and stop trying to pick a fight that you can't possibly win honey..

I think most here agree with you and would be pissed also. The bottom line is, it is out of warranty. Period.

Tom, who's being 'ridicules?' Maybe 'your' being so. Even though I don't agree with all of their comments on many different subjects, I don't try to dismiss them with a sexist remark. I've learned quite a bit from PepperElf and LadyScot. But then if I don't agree with their comments, I don't try to pick a fight. If CSD will permit my stealing his/her last comment: it's out of warranty, period. Case closed.

Why did my CRT Toshiba TVs sound turn off completely?
Posted by
Our other TV's sound still works so its not the cable, its not on mute, and it doesn't produce sound for our DVD's either. IT was working one minute, then the next it wasn't.
Does anyone have advice on how to fix it? What can be done?

How old is it? A component may have gone bad. I would guess it is out of warranty?
Best Buy actually has a TV repair division. You can try calling them. Might only cost $150 or less to have someone out. Just a guess.
Or you could probably get a new TV for a couple hundred more.
getoverit on 03/08/2011:
We have a 26" Toshiba CRT TV and there's a setting for switching the speakers off. That's so you can use it with your stereo system.
You press the Menu button on the remote and there's a whole set of Audio settings...treble, bass...all that.
I'd make sure that the problem wasn't something simple like that before I called anyone.
Venice09 on 03/09/2011:
I seem to remember this happening to our Toshiba television years ago. I think getoverit is right. The speakers somehow got turned off, and it was easy to fix through the remote. This sometimes happens to my computer speakers, too. The sound mysteriously gets turned off, and I have to go to the control panel to turn it back on.

In the event getoverit's good advice doesn't fix the problem, and the issue is in the amplifier, you could either have a tech look at it or add an external amp/speakers. It depends on your situation, budget and aesthetics. If I couldn't fix the amp, I would add an external one and run it back to the internal speakers if you like their fidelity.

Consider this a blessing and upgrade to a LCD/Plasma tv.

not a bad idea, trmn8r

Great advice trmn84 and getoverit!

MRM -> My 6 year old Sony 130 pounder has an outstanding picture and has been completely reliable. I've waited to see the price of flat panel tvs in the size I would want fall from $1600 to $800, and I'm still waiting. I don't need HD or a higher cable bill, and the size of my tv doesn't bother me. When people see it, they wonder if everything is large.
It could be the opposite of a blessing, if the breadwinner lost his/her job 2 years ago.
Venice09 on 03/09/2011:
I do not think this is a blessing. The last thing I would want is some huge flat screen plasma thingamajig. I don't watch television for visual or sound effects. I prefer content.
anniea24 on 03/11/2011:
Get over it: WE already did the on/off speaker thing with the remote, we don't have a stereo, I don't think my computer speakers will work on the TV.
It's an old TV I bought 2 years ago from someone moving, when my 5 year old Sony WEGA (bought new wouldn't turn on)My older Triniton, that I gave my other son was going strong after 10 years.
I don't have the money to buy a new TV. If someone knows the part it needs, one of my son's friends might be able to fix it. Also, no Best Buys on this island.
Anonymous on 03/11/2011:
Try this website:
If you know someone that can fix the tv, be sure to check out the "How to Get Into the Service Menu" (on the right of the page in blue printing).
I figure anything's worth a try at this point (unless you already did this).
If all else fails, try Craigs List. People are always getting rid of tv's for reasonable prices.
anniea24 on 07/06/2011:
we ended up buying a new TV. First one a Vizeo, worked 2 days. Took it back and got a Sony. I'm just praying that it will last longer than the 2 year Costco warranty.
It took a week to give away the old TV, people came over and tried to take it, it takes 4 men to carry and a truck.
Mike on 08/07/2011:
If you don't have any sound coming from your Toshiba TV speakers, check the small switch at the rear of your TV, it should be in the 'INT SPEAKERS' position! If it is in the 'EXT Speakers' position - you will not get any sound from your TV speakers.

Toshiba Regza 40" LCD TV is defective and should be recalled
Posted by
WAYNE, NJ, NEW JERSEY -- A little over a year and slightly out of warranty, the screen on the TV developed a vertical rainbow which covers about half of the screen making the TV useless. I tried to appeal to Toshiba but they told me they would not warranty the unit. I found several other users on blogs complaining of the same issues. I understand if a product is out of warranty and something minor breaks, but for the TV to become completely useless is unacceptable. Toshiba obviously doesn't care about their reputation. I will not purchase another Toshiba product.

So YOUR TV broke. Please explain why it should be recalled? A couple people on some blogs, or a couple hundred complaints on the internet, is but a dent in the number they probably sold.
memoryx57 on 01/06/2010:
I doubt any of the other manufacturers would do anything either if you had their brand. I do agree that a TV should last longer than a year. But I think the sad truth is that they really don't care that yours is broken. They have your money and they all love to cite " it's out of warranty ". I don't think they ever stop to look at the big picture and what it really cost's them in the long run! I would try a local shop and see if they can do anything.

No satisfaction
Posted by
I have been reading all the reviews on Toshiba. My husband and I had a repair man out today. We are having the same problem that all of you are having. Our TV has a horrible noise in the back and this has been going on for a year and a half. We had to wait on parts that were back ordered. We put new bulbs in and a new fan and the noise continued. We got no help from toshiba. They said that since the TV was out of warranty they could not do anything. Anyway the TV service man told us to scrap the TV it was not worth putting any more money into it. So I say do not but Toshiba. Its a sorry company.

Toshiba Has Crappy Service When It Comes To Lemons They Sale
Posted by
Disappointed Toshiba purchase
I purchased this 46 inch HD DLP TV a little over 2 years ago. Within the first 7 months the bulb blew out and needed replaced. Toshiba did send me free of charge a replacement to install. Two months later the TV would run for 30 min and then shut off. Toshiba did send a repairman to troubleshoot. This repair man ended up taking the unit back to his shop. Three months later I called to find out the status and I received it back. Another 7 months go by and the TV starts losing color until it got so bad you couldn't watch it.
I called and was told they thought it would be fixed with a little software update. We installed the update and it did not fix the problem. After continue calls to get Toshiba to stand behind this "Lemon" of which they refused, saying it was out of warranty (even though it has been a problem from the beginning). I took the TV to the recommended repair shop (2 hr drive)where it has been for over 3 months. I have been without the TV for 7 months from the time it quit working. I don't know why I said to fix it but in hopes there would become some lawsuit against Toshiba. The repair shop says the part is on back order from Toshiba. The cost of the repair will be $780. Wow, Toshiba should be so proud of their disposable products they sell.
I would recommend not purchasing a Toshiba brand item. I used to work for Sears (they stand behind their products) This is where I will go...and it won't ever be a Toshiba. My friends have all heard of this lemon purchase and lack thereof on Toshiba standing behind their product.

LCD TV Picture Goes Black
Posted by
Toshiba TV picture just went black. No warranty under 2 years old. Purchased at Best Buy they will not stand behind the product since we didn't purchase their warranty no satisfaction from customer support at Toshiba. There is a know problem with this model TV however they claim it is not the same issue. They will not verify previous problems. TV purchased for $850 Toshiba refuses to stand behind their product. Will never buy another product made by Toshiba or recommend to any clients or friends.

Yes it is frustrating when you purchase a high dollar appliance item and it last less than 2 years. If you do not have a warranty then there is nothing either company is going to do. Have you checked out the repair costs--sometimes it is cheaper to just buy new.

New Hope Amid the Rubble
Did you know only 60 percent of Haitians have the opportunity to attend primary school, and of those, only 20 percent go on to high school? Through a local digital literacy training program, Intel is helping give people in Haiti the skills they need to compete in today's innovation economy.
At age 20, Nancy Jean-Pierre does not have a high school diploma, but that is not unusual in Haiti. More than 90 percent of the schools in the small island nation are run privately, and most families cannot afford the cost. Fewer than half of the 70,000 teachers in Haiti are actually qualified to teach those who do go to school. Add in the devastating destruction to more than half of the country's schools in the January 2010 earthquake, and it is easy to see why the state of education in Haiti is dismal.
Digital Literacy for Haiti Rebuilding (DLHR)
Intel is working to give people like Nancy hope for their future. She was one of the first to sign up when the Intel Foundation-funded Digital Literacy for Haiti Rebuilding (DLHR) computer training program came to her rural town of Dessalines. Nonprofits Inveneo and NetHope began launching the program in 25 locations across Haiti in the spring of 2012, and hundreds of people have already attended the training.
DLHR offers many participants their first experience touching a computer. It is not uncommon for attendees to walk for several hours to attend DLHR courses, which cover computer fundamentals (mouse, keyboard, and so forth) and the basics of word processing, e-mail, and the Internet. Through DLHR, farmers and businesswomen are discovering better ways to do their jobs. Others are finding paths to information technology careers by attending advanced training modules and becoming community IT instructors themselves, helping ensure program sustainability.
Nancy is now an assistant in the DLHR program, teaching computer skills to other community members and helping manage the program's lab at a local school. She also uses her new word processing skills to earn income by preparing documents for others. "I would have lost a big part of my life if I had missed this course," she says. "I will continue to learn computers and help others who do not know. That will be my profession."

Police: Man kills girlfriend, neighbors in Federal Way shootingon April 22, 2013 @ 5:28 am (Updated: 4:48 pm - 4/22/13 )
More Photos
See all photos
Officers responding to an emergency call at 9:30 p.m. Sunday at the apartments located at 33300 block of 18th Lane South encountered a chaotic scene, with bullets flying.
"When officers arrived there were still shots being fired," said Federal Way police spokeswoman Cathy Schrock.
Police say they encountered the man in a stairwell carrying a gun. They fired upon him after he failed to heed their warnings to stop.
Wounded, the man fell in the parking lot.
"There was a semi-automatic handgun adjacent to the subject on the ground...the subject reached for the gun," Federal Way Police Chief Brian Wilson said in a news conference.
Officers fired and killed the man.
Police say they believe the calls to 911 began with a domestic violence homicide. The suspect shot his 25-year-old girlfriend in the head and then left with some belongings in a large gym bag.
A witness told police the suspect then fired upon two men, one of which was executed.
Police say a fourth man, in his early 60's, went outside to see what was happening, yelled to a neighbor to call 911, and then went back inside. That man was later found dead in his apartment.
"Preliminarily, we believe he may have been trying to kill his witnesses," said Wilson.
Officers showed up to the complex when the suspect was in a stairwell having just exited the deceased man's apartment.
"The suspect that was shot by Federal Way police officers is responsible for the death of the other four individuals," said Wilson.
One of the deceased men's mothers arrived to the scene with her daughters Monday morning.
"That's my son right there. I can't believe this is happening to us," said Silvia Valdovinos, the mother of 24-year-old Cesar.
She believes her son, who has a girlfriend and one year old baby, was in the wrong place at the wrong time.
A total of eight officers fired their weapons, Schrock said. All have been placed on administrative leave, per standard policy, as the investigation continues.
Police say the suspect had a valid concealed weapons permit and no criminal history, but he did have prior domestic violence calls in Federal Way and Seattle. The woman found dead in his apartment was not the subject of those domestic violence calls.
The names of the victims have not been released.

A Newark man was hit and killed by a minivan Thursday afternoon in Manchester. Police said 54-year-old Michael Young was hit and killed as he and 53-year-old James Carmel of Manchester were trying to load a van onto a trailer on County Road 7.
Police say the driver of the minivan, 69-year-old King Lewis of Lyons, never saw the truck,trailer, or van.
"Either you slow down, stop, or move into the other lane. We're still trying to see if there were any other witnesses that may have been traveling in the area at the time of the accident, talk to homeowners in the area that may have been looking out the window at the time of the accident," said Mark O'Donnell, New York State Police. "Certainly, we're talking to the operator of the van, who was taken to Clifton Springs Hospital for injuries, and try to ascertain what happened, why the accident happened."
This is the second fatal accident involving a pedestrian in Manchester. Last month, 35-year-old Tabitha Harris died when she was struck by a car on Route 21.

Did I get your attention? Hope so. I wanted to post this a bit before I posted some older LO's. As some of u know (since I've told u ) my old site closed. At that site I had several of what I consider MY best work. I want to include this in my gallery that I'm hoping to be calling home!
The reason for this post is that over the next few days as I add them (about a dozen) I like to warn people in advance. Most of them are Art Journaling and when I AJ its very very very personal. while there is NOTHING graphic they are deep and emotional and deal with pain, loss, and abuse. For this reason I like to let people know as for some it is way to close to home and something that is very difficult to deal with.
if that is YOU...no judgement...but for a few days just check out any LO's that i post for challenges as they will not deal with anything except my usual attempt at humor

Delight in the best local art, in castles that are silent witnesses to wealth gone by, and in lovingly restored hotel palaces from the early days of tourism. Deep, dark forests end at the foot of rocky peaks, while cows graze under the ancient Alpine maple trees. Mountain lakes like jewels reflect towering white peaks, and above it all reigns the majestic chain of Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. Where the Jungfraujoch – Top of Europe, the highest railway station in Europe is located at 3,454 metres above sea level.
Eiger, Mönch, Jungfrau - famous and resounding names all.
More gentle skiing can be found in the Simmental, Saanenland and Frutigland regions and on the sun terraces of Hasliberg, Axalp and Beatenberg. High peaks briefly disappear behind a feathering of snow. Mountain railways afford spectacular panoramic views that, in his day, impressed even James Bond. In 1968 the James Bond movie On Her Majesty's Secret Service was set on the Schilthorn – Piz Gloria. Ice climbing in glacier crevices gets you in touch with your inner self. Ski sailing lets you leave the ground now and then, without danger. Ski tours take you to the untouched world of mountain peaks. Dreamy villages show their homely, friendly faces along the way. Famous holiday resorts and traditional destinations such as Interlaken or Gstaad entice you with their top-level entertainment, and children are always king in Europe's playground. The Bernese Oberland makes every one of your winter fairytales come true.

Memories of the early years of her life, she wrote, "include some special ladies that made a difference in my kitchen moments down through the years. She mentions her mother, Anna Cole and her Aunt Fannie, who always got herself ready for the day with an apron. Then there was her great-aunt Fan, remembering when she and "Grandma Cole would go to find greens, such as ones to make "Poke Salad."
Rayburn uses the simple things — a mirror, a tea bag, or a coin — to illustrate an encouraging word. The book title is inspired by the memory of her grandmother in her crisp white apron, who always had the big pocket filled with goodies for her grandchildren.
When Rayburn married at age 18, she looked for recipes and loved fixing meals for her family. Since she occasionally worked at restaurants during those first years, where she wore little aprons, she said she became comfortable in her kitchen with an apron on. It was during those "apron times" in her kitchen, Rayburn said, she would find herself working things out as she talked to God about the different situations — "I needed to get out of my pocket, and put in His hands," she said. Thus the title of the book was born. She said, "We can leave things in our pocket and not do what we need to with them. Or, we can take them out and let God speak to us through them."
A Scripture verse grounds each devotional reading and includes such subjects as "The Watch," "The Eraser," "The Candy Heart," "The Pink Lady Apple" and "The Baby's Shoe."
"The Old Recipe" is a tribute to her mother and refers to Matthew 6:33: "See ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you." Rayburn begins the daily devotion with "The color of the paper has turned yellow from age. However, the writing on the pages, by the hand of my Mother, is still very plain. The recipe is for apple stack cake and lemon pie. These are two very old recipes."
She said her mom's kitchen was always a favorite place to be when the family came to her little house. "At this time in her life, she often forgets to wear an apron and is rarely in the kitchen. However, the apron hangs on the rack and the memories linger on. When I sit at that little table today, nothing could ever describe the wonderful feeling I get when seeing Mom here in her comfortable surroundings."
Rayburn continues, "God's Word is filled with recipes for life. It is so much better to follow after Him and His plan for each of us, then it is to just do a little of this and that, regretting later we did not seek His guidance." And she ends by asking the reader to write out a favorite recipe and pass it along to someone who would like to receive it.

MMMM. That fabric looks delicious!ReplyDelete
Oh, what a great charm pack. I'm in love with charm packs right now. I have so many ideas in my head right now of patterns I would love to design, but it seems that the quilt stores near me haven't gotten into the charm pack fad yet.ReplyDelete
My most recent, favorite quilting project was the bento box top that I just made... I had been dying to make one.
Lovely colors! Your's is the first of the Giveaway Day that I sign up for....Thanks for participating. I joined the oldredbarn sew along; so that's my latest project going. Got all my strips cut; using batiks and I'm only using stash...no going out buying new stuff!ReplyDelete

Louis Garneau AWD Bike Transpo Case $399.95
Transpo your pride and joy.
When it comes to traveling, cycling presents distinct issues -- especially when you're going to catch a ride in a big aluminum tube. Baggage handlers don't exactly have a reputation for being gentle, and when you place your prized, and fragile, road bike and race wheels their hands, you're gambling against the odds. Louis Garneau, however, has a clever solution to flying with your bicycle, the AWD Bike Transpo Case.
This bike transportation bag features an adjustable aluminum frame that supports and protects your bike. It's been designed with road and triathlon so you can rest assured that your bicycle will arrive at its destination without any hassles. Removable wheel bags allow you to carry and protect the most delicate, and expensive components.
For durability, Louis Garneau uses a 1680D nylon fabric that resists abrasion and tears from being loaded and unloaded at airports. Straps and multidirectional wheels mounted fore and aft roll smooth over a variety of surfaces to ensure transportation is easy.
Louis Garneau does not recommend using the AWD Bike Transpo Case with mountain bike. It weighs 17lbs without a bike, and measures 44in long, 34in high, and 12in wide.

Is this a full hard shell case?

This is not a hardshell case. It's a padded nylon that zips up around the bike.
Great Bag
This bag its suck a helpful thing to have while traveling. It is easy to carry with some room for your shoes or what ever else. The only problem I ever had with it was with a zipper but that was easily fixed with some pliers.

Megan Cloherty,
WASHINGTON - The separation of church and state is unique to American democracy, but when it comes to celebrating the start of a president's term, God has played a role in nearly every inauguration since George Washington.
President Barack Obama's second swearing-in will be no different.
Incorporating religion into the ritual of the day started with the first inauguration in 1789, when Washington attended a service at St. Paul's Chapel in New York City following his swearing-in.
While every president from then on chose to worship privately, almost all have placed their hand on a Bible when taking the oath of office on Inauguration Day.
St. John's Episcopal Church in Northwest D.C. has had a front seat to the ceremony surrounding America's top office. Every president since James Madison has visited St. John's for services partly due to its location across from the White House. And so St. John's has become known as the "Church of Presidents."
People buzz in and out of the bright yellow and white church like bumble bees as St. John's prepares to host Obama for a prayer service the morning of his second inauguration. The church has held services for six presidents on their inauguration days.
"(Roosevelt) started the modern tradition in 1933. We also did one for Harry Truman. We did two for Ronald Reagan, one for George H.W. Bush, two for George W. Bush and two for Obama. This will be our 11th," says Hayden Bryan, executive director of operations for St. Johns.
While the 8:45 a.m. prayer service will not be different than a normal morning prayer service, Bryan says every detail is being scrutinized. The event requires tickets, and along with the president and vice president, other dignitaries are expected to attend, so security is top of mind.
During the interview with WTOP, Secret Service officers swept through the small church's hallways, pointing indiscriminately at windows and stairwells. The Secret Service is paying extra attention to the location, but Bryan points out that Obama has been known to walk through the church's doors multiple times a year.
The church has a prized President's Pen book, in which every commander in chief since President Theodore Roosevelt has left his signature. The book also holds some guest names including presidential family members and vice presidents. (See gallery).
Before they sign the book, every president sits in the President's Pew, chosen by the church for James Madison.
"When the church was built, they rented the pews to people -- that's how they got their money to pay the clergy and maintain the building," Hayden says. "They thought they'd give the president first choice of a pew, so they formed a committee of the vestry and sent a letter from that committee to President Madison. Madison wrote back and said, 'You pick one for me.' So, they picked one in the church that was what they considered prime real estate at the time. And that's where the presidents have been sitting ever since."
That pew is not up front. In fact, it's in the middle of the nave. "People are surprised that the President's Pew is not in some special location. It's with the congregation," Hayden says.
It's part of the appeal of the church -- that a citizen can worship next to the president.
While the president's service on Inauguration Day is traditionally private, the following day is decidedly not. Since Reagan's first term, every president except Bill Clinton has visited the National Cathedral the day after his inauguration to take part in an Inaugural Prayer Service.
The National Cathedral service for Obama's second term will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Jan. 22.
"It'll be an interfaith service, recognizing the diversity of faith traditions in America. So there will be faith leaders from across the country participating, and there will also be musical performances as part of the service," says National Cathedral spokesman Richard Weinberg.
The cathedral pays homage to several past presidents in its architecture and design. Walking inside the front doors toward the nave, "Lincoln's bay" is located to the visitor's left. The 16th president's statue stands beneath a stained glass window designed to represent the Civil War with its Confederate gray and Union blue coloring.
On the visitor's right stands a statue of Washington. The statue is positioned underneath a window, which represents the sentiments of a soldier walking home from war. In writings, the soldier noted sapling trees sprouting from the ashes of battle. The window's design portrays a tree growing out of fire.
The National Cathedral is also the final resting place of Wilson, who is the only president buried in Washington, D.C.
The incorporation of religion into the inauguration was recognized by the cathedral's planners, who chose to have the first inaugural address in 1793 chiseled into the wall near Wilson's tomb.
Weinberg acknowledges the cathedral has come to play an important role in the nation's political history.
"The National Cathedral serves as a kind of spiritual home for the nation, and that's not something that's official. We do not have a formal relationship with the U.S. government, but it's what we've done through history, and this role we have inherited through the tradition of what's happened in this building before," Weinberg says.
The Inaugural Prayer Service also requires tickets, but it will be simulcast on C- SPAN and streamed online. Visitors to the cathedral can leave their thoughts and prayers for the nation as part of an exhibit set up at the cathedral as well as light a virtual candle and leave their thoughts online. See the sentiments left so far on the cathedral's prayer board.
There is also an exhibit called "Presidents at the Cathedral," which chronicles past visits by U.S. presidents over the cathedral's 105-year history.

And as the cymbal gets bigger you really start hearing the warmth project a little more.
