Octopus ad becomes visible only when it rains

Official description:

FRESH GREEN ADS has developed a RAINCAMPAIGN for SEA LIFE Scheveningen. Every time it rains the octopus of SEA LIFE Scheveningen appears on the streets and out of public drains and man-hole covers with its tentacles holding the text: "SEA LIFE laat je niet meer los" (SEA LIFE never lets you go). When the streets dry up the RAINCAMPAIGN disappears again.

In a surprising way the people in the streets are drawn to the wonderful world of SEA LIFE Scheveningen when it rains. When the streets dry up the octopus disappears again. These striking and environmentally friendly messages remain visible up to eight weeks.

1. How Arnold Schwarzenegger ended his term:

Three Republicans who split with their party to approve tax increases backed by Schwarzenegger in 2009 were given high-paying appointments to assorted state boards. Ironically, Schwarzenegger himself tried to eliminate one of these boards after his California Performance Review determined that its functions were duplicative. Other boards and commissions deemed wasteful by the review panel were also stuffed last week with politically connected appointees, including Vicki Marti, the wife of Schwarzenegger's chief of staff, who will now serve on the California Medical Assistance Commission and the Occupational Safety and Health Appeals Board.
