Good morning. It's Tuesday, March 21. The financial woes of national retailers are leaving holes at shopping centers across Central Florida, and landlords are looking for new businesses that aren’t susceptible to internet competition.

Two FSU students were killed in a chain-reaction crash Sunday on Florida’s Turnpike in Lake County. FHP troopers revised the death toll from four to two.
