8. A disposable hairnet.
10. another name for numerology.

I'm amused by how strong the two trends are. I'm going with a couple
unpopular choices, 2 & 12.
2. to earth-up a row of plants so as to leave a shallow irrigation trench
12. [N. Eng.] the froth left inside a beer glass after emptying it.

Since the results aren't out yet, and in case you'll take a late vote: 11 and 13.
