Let's see how far I'd get-I used up my lifelines on Monday.8. easy-there was a report on NBC news about a 98-year old lady who works as a ranger at the national memorial dedicated to the women workers of WW2 and how she was affected by the government shutdown (the memorial was closed). 9. easy to figure out.10. when the question first came up, the answers that popped into my head were "MALE" and "OVER 70 YEARS OLD".  I had no idea, so I would probably take the money and walk.$100K-this was an easy one for me.  I've read the original version of "Little Mermaid" and I've seen the statue in Copenhagen Harbor.  $250K-Oh boy, this was tough. I live in the Midwestern part of the country, so I've heard of this. I know they trade corn and hogs, but I was torn between A and B.

"Mini-sized corn" doesn't refer to the size of the ears but to the size of the contract: One futures contract of Corn controls 5,000 bushels; while one mini-sized contract of Corn controls 1,000 bushels.

Down one JTQ and the ATA.

Well, that's a nasty trick to write into the question.
