Simone Noble, 14, of Albany, spins her pinwheel for peace Monday morning, Sept. 23, 2013, during a Pinwheels for Peace event in front of Bethlehem Children's School in Slingerlands, N.Y. The event helped to mark the International Day of Peace, which is officially on Saturday September, 21. Messages of love were written on the pinwheels. Poetry was also read during a short ceremony.
