Hey guys,
I've enlisted in a contest on one of my favorite domains to browse and actually use one in a while. I'm a firearms collector, all wars, mostly WW2 though.

This website is awesome for interstate trading (all legal, everything goes to an FFL, unless you have a C&R license)
if you guys could give that link a look and the site too for a proper website hit. I'd appreciate it! :highfive:
I'm a second amendment supporter myself, but this maybe against the rules, despite being legal.

I want to start a new project. I want to start a new site similar to XDA without the bull****. Im looking into different things, but want to know if anyone has website designing experience.
What bull****?

Lol this is like me going into an insanely popular restaurant and asking if anyone there has restaurant management experience because I want to start my own restaurant minus all the ****ty food.

I'd like to know what bull**** too.
What exactly is your grievance with this website?
Your kidding me, right? Most people on here have a horrible attitude. Mods delete threads for no reason. Most mods are all assholes too.
dude u cnt have beef wih the most widely recognized forum on androidif u look up any apk or need to know anything its here
Banned, either for no reason or because I'm an asshole. (Apparently).
For future reference, recruiting is against the rules. As is encouraging off site activity on competitive sites. (Whether they exist yet or not)
Also, calling us names is not appreciated. We have feelings too y'know...... sniff sniff.......

I was going to offer my services too--but not with that attitude.
Not sure if there is a post for this already, or not? But what better place to try and network for tech job seekers than here on XDA, where tech is king? And where fellow enthusiasts can help each other.
Admins, if there is a better post, or place to put this in, please do so? Or maybe add a new forum for job networking? Because these days, it is tough finding a new job. Not everything is posted anymore. Now, you need places like LinkedIn, or other social areas, like XDA, to look for someone on the inside.
With that said, I will begin.
I am a desktop support tech, have been for near 20 years now. If you can call resurecting dead systems a "miracle", then I work miracles But all the jobs that I see advertised, or offers sent to me, are for help/service desk positions. Completely opposite of what I do. To be chained to a desk/phone the whole day, working from scripts, and with creativity prohibited, that is not for me. It is my creative mind, used to resolve the hard issues that others give up on, that makes me the great tech that I am. I am the one you can breath a sigh of relief, when you see me walking to your desk to fix your problem. I am there for you. And I enjoy being there for you. But right now, I need the help.
I am in the Irving area, the west side of Dallas, between Dallas and Ft Worth. I really need a true desktop support job, badly. But what I would really want most, is to find a job back in Southern California! Preferably in the Orange County area, but would take any desktop support job in SoCal, except for downtown LA. And to show how serious I am, I would be willing to pay a cash bonus to anyone who can get me a job to come back home to SoCal!
Please PM me with your contact info, and I will send you my resume and details. I truly appreciate any help that is given. Times are very tough these days, and help is very much needed.
If you need to check on me, I am always in the EVO 3D forums. Chogardjr, chad.goodman, Lucklui, scroosler, and others can vouch for me there that this is not some spam post.
Thank you all.

I see you are from the UK? That is my dream vacation, but never had a chance to go there In my old days, I used to race Spitfires (68, 72, 74), GT6 (73), English Ford Cortina GT6 (68), and two Lotus Europa S2's (69 Jimmy Clark Special and the 72 had a Renault Gordhini hemi race engine). Those were the days, fun cars that were true sports cars. My real dream job would've been to work for Lotus
And thanks for the tip.
Sorry OP, XDA is not the place for posting your resume, but I like your suggestion on adding a "Networking" forum and will add it to our list of site suggestions. Who knows...it could happen.
One of our fellow Android enthusiasts has created a Lego Android Bot. He has submitted the project to Lego so it can be put into production, however he needs 10,000 people to go onto facebook and twitter and vote for his creation. It's super cool and super simple to support. Just wanted to pass this info along. Here is a link to the story which contains the link to the voting page.

Cheers
I am a lego fan and also an android fan. I supported.
Wow looks really cool,If it will be availble to sell i will totally get one of these!
I always stepped on Lego's.. and this one time, there's kid choked with lego, and I need to get it out, it was horrible...
so my conclusion is... voted.. even though I can't find the voting button.
I am interested to this project. I will support it. just question, what is LEGO? I am definitely an Android lover..

The time. And dedication. Put into that little Andy. I can only imagine. *,*
So totally supported this. It would be lovely to be able to get my own little kit.. Is the blueprint available, or a part list, as far as if nothing ends up coming out of this?
Got my vote!

I'm all about free stuff. All my computer programs are open source. In a sucker for by one get one free. I clip coupons. And now with a kid on the way, I'm all about the free goods companies send you.
So if you've got one or one is coming, let's share the sites/places/businesses to get the goods.
Similac, the formula company will send lots of liquid and powder formula along with some bottles.
similac.com
Pampers, the diaper company will send a couple diapers. But they do hook you up with tons of coupons.
pampers.com
So what have you found? Share the wealth, Bogart.

I'm allllllll about couponing. hip2save.com is my favorite coupon/deal site. She often posts baby deals along with toys, food, books, etc freestufftimes.com is a decent one, too. If I find any deals, I will definitely share or even trade.

When Emma got pregnant she went online and looked for baby clubs and expectant mother sites, loads of them. We ended up with loads of stuff, from changing bags to talc, bathing lotions and potions, outfits etc. Best thing to do is get online, look for shops with baby clubs etc you'll find loads of stuff.

Most hospitals will provide you with a baby chair for the car if you ask them mate. Also, make sure you subscribe to the news letter on sites with baby stuff, they have some great stuff, free sometimes (samples)

In CA, it's state law the vehicle taking the baby home MUST have a approved baby seat, or baby ain't going nowhere! and they won't provide one. :banghead:
Also, great idea for a thread @boborone will contribute when I run into something.

I have a book published in 1793. Its a compact medical book.
I cannot find any info on the author. Publisher. Or even the book itself. I'm at a lost which is why I'm coming here.
Is it worth anything? Is it rare? What do I have here?
Can anyone put me on the trail at least?
Sent from my SM-N900P
Wow. That is pretty old! I would check your local area/city and see if you can hunt down a historian. Try at universitys, If you can find a professor they may be able to tell you where to go next, or better yet reference you to someone who specializes in old books
How would i go about doing this?
Sent from my SM-N900P
Try going to a uni or college and ask the receptionist if you can arrange a meeting with a history professor, or better yet, the college/uni may have a website where you can find contact details for the professors. Try using that to contact them directly, telling them about the book

Wikipedia on the author:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Elliot_(scientist_and_physician)
"John Elliot MD (1747 – 22 July 1787) was a physician and scientist in eighteenth-century London who was the first person to conjecture that different parts of the retina respond to particular colours of light. However, he was obsessed with Mary Boydell, daughter of the publisher John Boydell, and in 1787 was arrested for attempting to murder her. Although acquitted of attempted murder, he starved himself to death while awaiting trial for assault in Newgate Gaol."
Here's a book about John Elliot M.D:

Don't expect it to be worth much. Even First Editions don't sell for much more than a few hundred pounds and i bet they are in great condition. See here for comparison:

An aunt presented it to me. I am an individual who is cultured. I appreciate anything of a time long past.
Thank you for your information.

Your Georgian book
Hello,
The book you have was written by Sir John Elliot MD. A different Dr John Elliot to the one who tried to assassinate my ancestor. Same era. Different person. Hope this helps.
