Tuesday evening, city aldermen reviewed a proposal for redistricting of the city wards. Because the population of the city dropped below 15,000 at the last census, the city has to reduce its number of wards from five to four before the next election. The new wards will not take effect until the swearing in of aldermen in May of 2013.

Katie Couric, right, applauds as Aimee Copeland, 24, of Snellville, Ga., who survived a rare flesh-eating disease, arrives for an exclusive interview Tuesday on the new daytime talk show "Katie" in New York. Copeland walked to the stage using a new walker. She was joined in New York by her parents and sister. After Couric interviewed the family, she announced that an Atlanta-area Chevrolet dealer was in the studio to give Copeland a new minivan that will be retrofitted so she can drive it. Copeland got the infection in May after falling from a zip line and gashing her leg. Doctors had to amputate both hands, her left leg and right foot. She returned home to suburban Atlanta last week after three months in the hospital and a rehabilitation clinic.
