1. Police raid gay leather bar Atlanta Eagle (Patrons allegedly were cuffed and ordered to lie on the floor. If you've seen the Eagle's floor, you'd know that's cruel and unusual punishment.)
2. Mayor, City Council qualifying ends ... here's the list (More than 50 candidates are vying for 17 seats. Is your district's seat up for grabs?)
3. Atlanta's largest homeless shelter sues City Hall (Lawsuit claims the city conspired to shutter the controversial Peachtree-Pine shelter.)
4. Trees — yes, trees — stolen along the Beltline (Seriously?)
5. Kyle Keyser's social media skills pay off in mayoral fundraising (The community activist and mayoral candidate got his Facebook and Twitter followers to help him raise the $4,425 needed to qualify.)
