Indian Pledge

India is my country and all Indians are my brothers and sisters. I love my country and I am proud of its rich and varied heritage. I shall always strive to be worthy of it. I shall give respect to my parents, teachers and elders and treat everyone with courtesy. To my country and my people, I pledge my devotion. In their well being and prosperity alone, lies my happiness.

This is our pledge and we used to say this everyday during school prayer. To my fellow Indians: How many of you still remember this ?

Impressive 3D street drawing

The best 3D street drawing I have seen. It is admirable how the painter blended himself and a wall in the side-walk into the drawing. Note that it is done on a flat surface. Very neat. You can view more of his street arts here:

I am wondering about the science behind this. Like more details on how exactly the artist gives 3D perceptions on a flat surface. I would really be interested in learning this one day. :-)
