			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I saw these 2 predictions few hours back, sound interesting.</p>
<p>1. <strong>The 3964 Myth</strong></p>
<p>1. Brazil won the world cup in 1994, before that in 1970 Add it: 1970 + 1994 = 3964<br />
2. Argentina won in 1986, before that in 1978 Add: 1978 + 1986 = 3964<br />
3. Germany won in 1990, before that in 1974 Add 1974 + 1990 = 3964<br />
4. Again brazil won in 2002, before that in 1962 Add: 1962 + 2002 = 3964<br />
5. And now who wins in 2010? Easy: 3964 &#8211; 2010 = 1954</p>
<p>And who won World Cup in 1954?</p>
<p><strong>2. Paul&#8217;s prediction:</strong></p>
<p><object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/kFvrAdyFUJ8&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/kFvrAdyFUJ8&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1?rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object></p>
<p>Just in case you don&#8217;t know who is Paul, these are something about &#8220;him&#8221;:</p>
<p>Paul is an Octopus born in England but resides in Sea Life Aquarium in Oberhausen, Germany. He is stunning soccer fans around the world with his remarkable ability to predict the outcome of German World Cup games.  So far for this world cup, his track record is 100%. For example, he has correctly predict the outcome for German to win over England and Argentina. The last time Paul predicted a German loss, the team was upset by Serbia.</p>
<p>How he choose the winner? Paul decides over a winner by picking a mussel in one of two glasses — one with a German flag and the other one with a flag of the opponent.</p>
<p>For this round, this psychic eight-legged oracle has made his latest selection which shocks Germany.  He has selected the mussel from the container with Spain&#8217;s flag.  So do you think you can trust this giant &#8220;sotong&#8221;?</p>
<p>Actually his lifetime record is 80% as he has once made a mistake in Euro 2008 where he wrongly picked Germany as the winner over Spain. There is a saying his colour blindness might caused him hard to distinguish the German tricolor of black, red and yellow from the red-yellow-red stripes of Spain.  So German still got hope.</p>
<p>By the way, Paul is so popular now that there are some fan page for him, one of it is here: <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Oktopus-Paul/106518376065475?ref=search&#038;v=wall">http://www.facebook.com/pages/Oktopus-Paul/106518376065475?ref=search&#038;v=wall</a></p>
