Wednesday brought with it a mix of rain, sleet andsnow, slowing traffic, grounding planesand prompting many people to changetheir Thanksgiving plans. By midday, morethan1,000 flights were grounded across the EastCoast and some5,000 flights were delayed. With many people heeding calls to get out of town early, security lines started backing upwell before the worst weather had descended on the region. OnTwitter, it did not take long for frustrated commuters to post enough photos to form a collage of airport misery.

They say the puffy white balloons, which carry a rotating spherical camera pod, have greatly helped quell the unrest. But the eyes inthe sky are unnerving Palestinians.
