Taisho Period
Where can I get good information on the Taisho period?
There is no useful information about wikis. I try write a story set in the Taisho period, especially as I have information on women, schools, clothing, and society in Tokyo at the time.
What to watch movies or read novels on the Taisho era? There is also a Comic ga Toru Haikarasan. This is a woman of the Taisho era. Movie: "Spring Snow" can be good too. Http: / / en.wikipedia.org / wiki / Haika-san_ga_T% C5% 8Dru http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki / Spring_Snow_ (film)

Fine Old
Is it good to burn an old barn beams, wood stove?
There was an old barn there is a little to the owners and we gave many beams / planks of it, and have been using firewood. I think it's a barn, somewhere in between 30-60 years. is also true that So what? because the wood burns very hot for a very long time, which leads me to think that was sealed with a sort of oil-based product, but I'm not sure. Is it safe? if not, why?
If its been treated, you could be building a wall of the chimney or pipes that could fire. To save a little of it outside on the ground, if your state has tried to feel for sure. In addition, certain types of Old Wood will cause a lot of sparks coming when it is burned, keep a screen fireplace with direct access to fire.

Big Chinese
does anyone know the name of the beach in southern california that has that really big chinese bell thing?
i think its around the Orange County, Los Angeles County area (i think) and it has a really big chinese bell and its even kinda by a park.
Everyone is right about it being the Korean Friendship Bell in San Pedro. It's not on the beach though, it's on top of a hill and you can see the ocean from up there. Parking is limited. The park that you are asking about is on the far other side of the street from the bell. It would be a good walk since you are going up a very steep hill to get from the park to where the bell is.
It was in the movie The Usual Suspects.

Dragon Handle
Which is the best lizard for handling asides from a bearded dragon?
I was thinking an armadillo or green anole( although I'm not sure about the anole) please help I'm planning on buying a lizard for the first time soon.
Armadillo lizards and anoles are definitely not good handling lizards. Leopard geckos are great. They are easy to care for, hardy, fairly low in the price range, and tolerate handling great. Another you might want to try are Mountain Horned Dragons, which are very tolerant to handling. Water dragons, although it may take some time, are also a good choice.
Stay away from small lizards like some skinks, anoles, and geckos. These are very jumpy and handling only stresses them out.
Also chameleons are not good species for handling. They do not tolerate it, they just are not fast to get away. This stresses them out completely and i recommend chameleons as "look do not touch" lizards.

Years Old
What do you think of a 43 years old single man who loves to collect sexy figurines? l?
I know a guy he is single, almost 45 years old who loves to collect plastic figurines (girls) that wear sexy clothes or almost half naked. He said he likes that stuff but nothing more than that. He just found it cute. But why all those figures that is like porn figures? He likes anime series too which is not so questionable but those figurines that he collects seem abnormal. Thanks for your answer.
Unusual, but I wouldn't consider that in itself a red flag issue....people collect all kinds of things.

Chinese Landscape
Can you please help me with my Sony Cybershot T700 configuration?
I just bought a Sony Cybershot T700 in China and instructions are in Chinese. It is a good camera, but I want to disable the "portrait" when I am indicted images. It is preferable see the "portrait" to "Landscape" as the image is much larger and easier to see. However, if I put it back in the landscape back to portrait when I check again. Does anyone know how to disable the "portrait" indictment?
I tried to find the electronic version of the manual, but Sony is very, very difficult (or non-electric) - another reason why I could never buy a Sony. Perhaps the camera is very new and, finally, they add. I suggest you check from time to time.
