NEW YORK -- Arnold Schwarzenegger said there was no hesitation in postponing the release of his movie "Collateral Damage" after last week's terrorist attacks.

In the film, which was scheduled to open Oct. 5, Schwarzenegger plays a Los Angeles firefighter whose wife and son are killed in a terrorist attack. The movie has been delayed indefinitely.

"I know what a hard job it is to be a firefighter and how brave those guys are and how tough those guys are," the action star told Fox News Channel on Thursday night.

"And to see the tragedy, you know, I just thought like, 'I don't want to come out with the movie right now, after what has happened."'

WARREN, Ohio -- TV weatherman Al Roker found that airport security might not be as complete as it could be.

Appearing in Warren for a lecture Wednesday, Roker said his trip through security at New York's LaGuardia Airport was "just shy of a full body cavity search."

Security officials took away a disposable razor and batteries that Roker had packed -- and then he went into an airport store and was able to buy the same items. He took them back to the officials.

"I wasn't trying to be a wise guy," Roker said. "Obviously, we haven't closed all the security loopholes."
