Super Tuesday is here and voters in a dozen states will vote in contests to pick the nominee for the Republican and Democratic presidential candidate.

A plan to build more than 4,000 homes and apartments atop a World War II-era bombing range near Lake Nona won unanimous approval from the Orlando City Council on Monday, despite the objections of some nearby residents. [More] Complaints about Lake County Commissioner Tim Sullivan living outside district are latest in trend across Central Florida. [More] "Concierge medicine" is coming to the masses in Central Florida. It's a membership-based model of care — called direct primary care — that bypasses health insurance.

Now Mike White's struggling team has one more chance to salvage its unraveling NCAA Tournament hopes — or else. [More] Jim Harbaugh and his Michigan Wolverines practiced at IMG Academy Monday with little more than football on their minds. While the four-hour practice had the look and feel of a typical spring football workout, there was no denying the Maize and Blue uniforms were a little out of place under the bright glare of the Florida sun. [More] C.J. Watson and Brandon Jennings need time to regain their rhythm on the court. [More] Walt Disney World has announced more than two dozen new tenants for its expanded Disney Springs shopping and dining complex, including household names such as Coca-Cola, Lacoste, Anthropologie, Vera Bradley, Lucky Brand, Kate Spade and Sperry alongside new concepts, including an "athletic retail boutique experience" founded by Marcus Jordan, son of NBA star Michael Jordan.
