Unmanned aircraft are quietly patrolling the U.S.-Mexico border from far above the ground.

Seven of the $6.5 million aircraft already are in the air and three more will join them soon.
The purpose of - and controversy surrounding - the program is detailed in a story that runs exclusively in today's print edition of the Arizona Daily Star.

Also exclusive to the print edition:

• Sports columnist Greg Hansen shares his weekly treasure-trove of sports news and tidbits.

• Vamos columnist Bonnie Henry serves up a funny and touching list of the things she's thankful for this year.
