A PILOT has exposed himself to security staff at a London airport after becoming enraged at being searched. The pilot asked security “Do you want to search this?” as he dropped his pants at London City Airport, the Sun reported.

NEW YORK (CNN) -- One morning a couple of months ago at Westchester Medical Center, Dawn Verdick gave Daniel Flood one of her kidneys.
Daniel Flood received a kidney from Dawn Verdick. They were brought together through Craigslist. Verdick and Flood were not friends or family. In fact, they were total strangers from the East and West coasts. But that's not the most unusual aspect of this case.

The patient and donor were brought together after Flood's three daughters placed an ad on Craigslist, the online classifieds site that offers everything from autos to real estate and guitar lessons to massage.

"Please help us, my dad needs a kidney!" began their posting in the site's volunteer section.

If you saw a bicycle with a sticker that read "This Bike is a Pipe Bomb," would you be worried?

If so, imagine the frenzy such a bicycle caused at the airport in Memphis, drawing the response of police and fire personnel prepared for an explosion, MyFOX Memphis reported.

The sticker was fixed to a bicycle chained outside the airport's Terminal C on Monday, prompting police to take the bike's owner into custody and restrict access to the space around the two-wheeled vehicle.
