I'm Frank Carnevale, homepage editor for OrlandoSentinel.com. Here are some top stories I don't want you to miss today. Send me an email and let me know what you think.

Good morning. It's Wednesday, April 13. This morning we take a look at how an Orlando Sentinel poll played a roll in Shaquille O'Neal's departure from the Orlando Magic. Also, we now have an opening date for Town Center, the next phase for Disney Springs. And Orlando could become the latest Florida city to effectively decriminalize small amounts of marijuana.

We've been busy taking photos at high school proms around Central Florida. Take a look at the proms of Lake Howell, Winter Park and more. Here's what else is happening in Central Florida. Have a great day.
