FLIGHT DIVERTED SECURITY

Dave Peterson, of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, is searched by airport security as his shoes roll off the conveyor belt of an X-ray machine at the Eastern Iowa Airport in Cedar Rapids, Monday, Dec. 24, 2001. Peterson said it was the first time he has ever had to take off his shoes at the airport security check but added, "The safer the better, I don't mind at all." Peterson was heading to Cleveland spend the holidays with his family. (AP Photo/Cedar Rapids Gazette, Brian Tietz)
