#PhillyFive What We’re Reading: Sept.11, 2014

What we're reading this morning.

1) Two of Pennsylvania's best-known politicians are among Politico's "biggest losers of the primary season."

2) As casino closings destroy the resort's tax base, Atlantic City may take a cue from Camden and replace its police department with a county-run force, reports the Press of Atlantic City.

3) If you hate hipsters, you might be a hipster, writes PhillyNow.com's Josh Kruger. "I have searched far and wide, and I cannot find an actual, bona fide, self-described hipster," Kruger says. "I have found many people, though, who are loudly not hipsters. "

4) The benefits of crowdfunding aren't what you think. The capital gleaned from Kickstarter pales in comparison to something more valuable, writes Jim Saksa in Technical.ly Philly.

5) For new parents with lots of money and not enough places to spend it all, Philadelphia Magazine reports that Baby Spas are now a thing.
