Paul the octopus, who shot to fame during this year's football World Cup in South Africa for his flawless record in predicting game outcomes, has died, his aquarium in Germany said on Tuesday. Skip related content

"Management and staff at the Oberhausen Sea Life Centre were devastated to discover that oracle octopus Paul, who achieved global renown during the recent World Cup, had passed away overnight," the aquarium said in a sombre statement.

 

"Paul amazed the world by correctly predicting the winners of all Germany's World Cup clashes, and then of the final," said Sea Life manager Stefan Porwoll.

 

"His success made him almost a bigger story than the World Cup itself ... We had all naturally grown very fond of him and he will be sorely missed," said Porwoll.

 

Paul beat the odds during the World Cup by correctly forecasting all eight games he was asked to predict, including Spain's 1-0 win over the Netherlands in the final.

 

For the prediction, two boxes were lowered into the salty soothsayer's tank, each containing a mussel and a flag of the two opposing teams.

 

Watched by a myriad of reporters, Paul would head to one box, wrench open the lid and gobble the tasty morsel, with the box he plumped for being deemed the likely winner.

 

Paul's body is now in cold storage while the aquarium decides "how best to mark his passing."

 

However, Paul's fans need not despair. The aquarium has already been grooming a successor, to be named Paul like his mentor.

 

"We may decide to give Paul his own small burial plot within our grounds and erect a modest permanent shrine," said Porwoll.

 

"While this may seem a curious thing to do for a sea creature, Paul achieved such popularity during his short life that it may be deemed the most appropriate course of action."

Ο Πολ, το χταπόδι που έγινε γνωστό για τις απίστευτες προβλέψεις του κατά την διάρκεια του Μουντιάλ απεβίωσε.

 

Την είδηση επιβεβαίωσε ο μάνατζερ του Ενυδρείου Θαλάσσιας Ζωής στο Ομπερχάουζεν, Στέφαν Πόρβολ. "Η επιτυχία του το κατέστησε ως μεγαλύτερη είδηση ακόμη και από το Παγκόσμιο Κύπελλο".

 

 

 

Ο Πολ είχε προβλέψει σωστά τους νικητές όλων των αγώνων της Γερμανίας αλλά και την κατάκτηση του βαρύτιμου τροπαίου από την Ισπανία. Σύμφωνα με το προσωπικό του Ενυδρείου δεν ήταν η αναμενόμενη εξέλιξη παρότι όπως είναι γνωστό η ζωή των χταποδιών δεν ξεπερνά συνήθως τα δύο χρόνια.

 

Οι υπάλληλοι φορούν μαύρες κορδέλες, ενώ υπάρχει και βιβλίο συλλυπητηρίων!

 

"Φάνηκε πως έφυγε από τη ζωή ειρηνικά κατά την διάρκεια της νύχτας, από φυσικά αίτια.

 

Είναι παρήγορο το γεγονός πως απόλαυσε τη διαμονή του εδώ" ανέφερε ο Πόρβολ για να προσθέσει:

"Έχουμε αποφασίσει να διεξάγουμε ένα μικρό τελευτουργικό και να θάψουμε το χταπόδι στα εδάφη μας με ένα εικονοστάσι".

Σημειώνεται ότι σύντομα θα κυκλοφορήσει και ντοκιμαντέρ με τον βίο του Πολ, ενώ ακόμη και η έγκυρη βρετανική εφημερίδα Guardian αφιέρωσε ένα μεγάλο κομμάτι στο συμπαθές μαλάκιο.

      "CAN YOU DO A BULGARIAN REVOLUT?" – WE DID. FIRST DRAFT, NO EDITS The request came in short: a photo of a bank card, Bulgaria, Revolut. We said yes and asked the only question that matters – what data. The client was on the road, asked for a couple of hours, then sent the lot: number, expiry, CVV, payment system, bank, cardholder name. Then came the part the client never sees: - ran the number through Luhn – the check digit has to add up, otherwise the card is dead the second anything automated looks at it - matched the BIN to the issuer: Revolut in Bulgaria isn't a "local bank", the cards run through Revolut Bank UAB. The number range has to actually belong there, not just start with the right digit - built the current design, not a five-year-old picture: vertical layout, flat laser print instead of embossing, correct chip module, contactless mark where it belongs - the payment system logo – with the right gradient where the circles overlap and the wordmark sitting exactly where it should. A small thing that kills half the fakes out there - and finally, physics. Plastic has to catch light: a highlight along the edge, a micro-shadow under the chip, a faint fingerprint. A phone shot, not a render Sent the draft for approval. The client looked it over, signed off with zero corrections – final files went out. One pass, no rework. A card is a deceptively simple document. Looks like a rectangle and sixteen digits. In reality it's maths in the number, a tie to the issuer, a current design and light on plastic. Miss any one of the four and the file gets exactly two seconds of attention. Need a card for a specific bank and country? Message us. We'll tell you straight what's realistic for your case – then build it. { all data published with the client's consent} › TG: @mustang_service_ms ( https:// t.me/ mustang_service_ms ) › Channel: Mustang Service ( https:// t.me/ +JPpJCETg-xM1NjNl ) #drawing #card #photoshop #revolut #case
