Limo Drivers Disrupt City Council Meeting, Ottawa Bans Incandescents Fo' Sho', Rosie Quits The View

A group of airport taxi drivers were ejected from the Toronto council chambers yesterday after a dispute regarding the council's plan to ban taxis that are not registered in Toronto from picking up fares downtown.

In related news, city councillors got their class portrait taken. Awwww.

More information on the Jane Creba shooting is being revealed as witnesses reluctantly give their statements to the police.

It's official: the sale of incandescent lights will be banned by 2012. If you really want to get around the ruling, buy a case of incandescents before they're taken off the market and try to decide which light fixtures in your house are really "bulb-worthy".

Rosie O'Donnell has quit The View. Coughwhocares.

Well Barbara Walters certainly doesn't return my fan mail...

We'll miss you Rosie!
