Good morning, Jupiter.
🎓 Education
The nonprofit formerly known as Suits for Seniors celebrated 10 years with a gala at The Breakers in West Palm Beach and announced its new name, Career Ready.
State Rep. Jervontae Edmonds founded the group and said the program helped nearly 3500 students gain professional skills—like Scarlett Acosta, a Forest Hill High School graduate who now studies prelaw at the University of Miami and serves in the U.S. Air Force.
🌲 Environment
Florida residents saw iguanas falling from trees after a cold snap paralyzed the reptiles, and experts said the sudden drop in temperature made them lose control + wildlife officials advise residents not to handle the animals to avoid causing stress or injury.
🏥 Health
Dr. Andrew Noble from Jupiter Medical Center said that bone density drops over time, so patients should get a bone scan, exercise, and eat right to lower their fracture risk.
He added that his team uses robotic-assisted systems for precise implant planning when surgery is needed—helping them create a plan tailored for each patient.
71-year-old Orna Wiseman is a breast cancer survivor who is training to run the 10K at the Palm Beaches Marathon next month—she plans the shorter race after only a year of running.
