Occupy Wall Street is in full swing - Bloomberg is catching hell for sweeping out the protesters and power washing the cement, then changing the rules of how people can collectively demonstrate their freedom to assemble and speak.
Meanwhile, a pilot of a Chautauqua Airlines flight from North Carolina to LaGuardia, NYC, became trapped in the lavatory, mid-air, and was unable to open the flimsy airline door and escape from the blue-latrine-water odor back to the safety of the cockpit. A foreign passenger who attempted to assist the stuck pilot by communicating the problem to the co-pilot, was ignored, and instead was reported to air control command at LaGuardia as "someone with a thick foreign accent [who] is trying to access the cockpit", which prompted air control to order an emergency landing. Luckily, the pilot barged his way out of the latrine and back to the cockpit where he confirmed that there was no emergency. The man with the scary foreign accent was indeed just a passenger trying to help.
