What would mermaids use as currency?
I'm curious and bored. What would they need/consider useful? Assuming they're at the top of the marine food chain and have no problems eating any kind of marine animal (and don't really eat humans).
Early types of money with humans were cattle... so would that mean manatees are valuable to merfolk? Metals don't really work since they rust underwater. Seashells are way too easy to get (inflation).
Uh..?
2 AnswersBiology6 years agoBaggage claim on connecting flight (France to US)?
I'll be flying from:
Paris -> NY (JFK airport - have to change from Terminal1 to Terminal2) -> Tampa
And my return flight is:
Tampa -> Detroit Wayne County -> Paris
When I arrive in NY, will I need to claim my baggage, go through customs, and re-check my baggage? How will I do this if I also need to change Terminal?
When I return, will there be any similar things occuring or not?
Thanks

5 AnswersCats7 years agoBusiness Internal Assessment Question?
My business IA is due very soon and I need help.
My question is: should the firm set up a sales office in Chile (Santiago) or Brasil (Rio de Janeiro or Brasilia)
I need to create a decision tree, and for that will some info including:
1. By how much do you think the revenue of the firm will increase if it sets up a sales office in either country? By how much percent do you think the revenue will increase? (ex. chile: 20%, brazil: 12% just made them up, but I can't find any info on the internet)
2. What are the chances of these options succeeding or failing? (for ex. option 1, success: 60%, failure 40%)
3. If a firm has margins, do I add these into the calculations? (10% margins = only get 10% of revenue as profit returned)
If you have any links to business IA examples that have done something similar/used decision trees, I'd be grateful to see them.
Thanks!
1 AnswerOther - Business & Finance7 years agoCan't decide career: Digital Artist or Police Detective?
I need to send off applications to universities relatively soon, but I still don't know what I should study.
I'm doing the IB and am one of the top students in my class (last semester I got 39 out of 42 points).
I draw all the time (traditionally and digitally) and am interested in going into the area of digital art which would include: 2D/3D animation/modelling, concept art, etc. I enjoy playing video games, so this ties in with my interests and possibly working for video game/film firms and suchlike.
However, many people tell me that you can't really earn a living like that, and that making art becomes a strenuous, compulsory process when you do so for a living. So people suggest I just keep it as a hobby. Then again this would be a flexible area to go in.
On the other hand, I'm also interested in becoming a police detective. I am fit and take Krav Maga lessons twice a week (if I would have more time, I would also do Muay Thai). I am good at analysing things and am cool/level-headed. Yet this area is not as flexible as the art area.
It doesn't help that these areas are unrelated, so any help/advice/suggestions are appreciated.
So yeahh
Thanks!
1 AnswerOther - Education7 years agoFire Red Water Pokemon for my team suggestions?
So, I'm stuck for a water pokemon in my team as there are several options I like.
First of all my team is composed of:
-Charizard
-Jolteon
-Snorlax
-Cubone
-Gengar
Jolteon will be a Sp. Atk sweeper, Charizard a mixed sweeper, Snorlax is going to be a tank but I'm not too sure about the other pokemons' roles.
Now onto the water pokemon question. The main water pokemon I'm deciding between are Vaporeon or Lapras, but any other suggestion would be appreciated.
With Lapras I would be able to also be a tank, due to its high HP and Sp. Def/Def, however it has more weaknesses than Vaporeon (it's a dual-type) and moves slower. Vaporeon is quicker.
So which one should I take/is better for my team?
(And yes I'll be doing some competitive gaming.)
4 AnswersOther - Games & Recreation9 years agoFire Red Jolteon Moveset Question?
Ok so I'm playing Fire Red and recently got a Jolteon, who's got a Docile Nature (I know Timid is better, but still). I'm most likely going to be playing competitively, mostly with my friends though, and I was thinking about different movesets.
- Double Kick
- Thunderbolt
- Shadow Ball
- Pin Missile
(This moveset would cover a lot of types, but isn't all too strategical)
Due to Jolteon's low HP, I then thought about Substitute, which could be really useful. Since Jolteon is the fastest in my team, I think he should maybe have Baton Pass too, since he could be able to baton pass a substitute to another team member. However, then I'd only have two attacks left; Thunderbolt and Shadowball?
-Baton Pass
-Substitute
-Thunderbolt
-Shadowball
Oh and he's pretty much EV trained in Speed and Sp. Attack.
So any suggestions would be really awesome, and an explanation even better! :D
4 AnswersOther - Games & Recreation9 years ago'The Cold War was based on a misunderstanding', how far do you agree?
So, just as the title asks, how far do you agree with this statement saying that the Cold War based based on a misunderstanding?
The answer can even be a yes/no/maybe sort of answer and I'm thinking it should have at least 8 points.
If you have any resources/info/etc, please tell~
Thanks
6 AnswersHistory10 years agoVietnam War (My Lai Massacre) Questions?
I need some help answering these questions about the Vietnam War.
1. Why do you think it took 12 months for anyone to do anything about the massacre?
2. Why was the massacre so shocking to the American public?
3. Are Sources 51 and 52 making the same point? Explain.
Source 51:
Most of the soldiers had never been away from home before they went into service. And they end up in Vietnam going there many of them because they thought they were going to do something courageous on behalf of their country, something which they thought was in the American ideal. But it didn't meant slaughtering whole villages of women and children. One of my friends, when he told me about it, said: You know it was a Nazi kind of thing' We didn't go there to be Nazis. At least none of the people I knew when there to be Nazis. (Ronald Ridenhour)
Source 52:
We were not in My Lai to kill human beings, really. We were there to kill ideology that is carried by - I don't know - pawns. Blobs. Pieces of flesh. And I wasn't in My Lau to destroy intelligent men. I was there to destroy an intangible idea. To destroy communism. (Lt. Calley)
Thanks in advance
5 AnswersHistory10 years agoHelp with designing a museum etc.?
As the first step for my art project, I need to have designed a museum, but I can't think of a good design or topic for one. Here are some examples of what my friends designed: a cloud museum shaped like a cloud, an aquarium museum shaped like a submarine, and so on. Any ideas or suggestions for what I could design? I'm sorta clueless..
After I did that I have to either design a logo, cover of a book, repeat pattern for walls, costume, stained glass window, water feature, or outdoor eating area for the museum, using up about 10 pages of process work.
Please help,
Thanks in advance

Yes, I know this is really random but my friends and I have been wondering about this. Also, one of my friends might start an RP with western zodiac stuff, and was curious.

Would its legs be normal goat legs when on land or stay as a fish tail?
I know this sounds very random XD If you can somehow answer this question, we would be happy :)

Oh yea, and the turtle (energetic one) keeps swimming against a corner without stopping. Why?
