A beautiful rainbow that appeared at the World Trade Center one day before the 14th anniversary of 9/11 was photographed by Ben Sturner. The 39-year-old Queens resident and CEO and founder of Leverage Agency in Manhattan took the picture Thursday morning before work.
“I’m lucky enough to have an apartment with a terrace, and I went out this morning and saw the rainbow,” Sturner told The Oregonian. “And I don’t know if it was just a coincidence or what, but it’s the day before Sept. 11, and it just appeared there at the Freedom Tower.”

Before After: Old Celebrities With Their Younger Selves By Fulvio Alejandro
1 day ago by Dainius
Colombian artist Fulvio Obregon, AKA Fulaleo, combined the old with the new in his collection of illustrations “Yo Mi Otro Yo.” “Me My Other Me” features old celebrities drawn next to their younger selves, often with one of them wearing a t-shirt or bearing a slogan highlighting or mocking their life’s achievements.
An ad showing a woman next to her younger self was the inspiration for the project. Obregon’s work often features sarcastic and bizarre elements. He is most famous for his fat soccer (football) caricatures; their popularity spawned two more takes on the topic, spoofing the teams from Madrid and Barcelona.
