Princess Storytime
Saturday, January 28, 2012, 2 p.m. Crowell Public Library is proud to host the 2012 Pasadena Tournament of Roses Royal Court for the annual children’s “Princess Storytime.” Little princes and princesses in attendance will have the special honor of meeting the ladies of the Royal Court and getting to hear the court share enchanting tales of royalty and how some dreams really do come true. The Royal Court will be available to answer audience questions such as, “What is it like to be a princess?” and “What was your favorite part of being in the Rose Parade?” The ladies of the 2012 Royal Court were chosen from over one thousand San Gabriel Valley women. Selection was based on skills in public speaking, poise, academic achievement, community involvement and personality.
Remember to wear your finest royal gown or robes and bring your camera for pictures with the Royal Court!

Medical Mondays: The Magic of Medical Weight Loss
Monday, January 23, 2012, 6:00 p.m. As the last of the Christmas candy is being rapidly consumed in anticipation of the looming New Year’s diet resolutions, it’s time to get serious about health and weight loss. DR. JOHN DE BEIXEDON will discuss the causes of the obesity epidemic and the consequent rise in diabetes, hypertension and hyperlipidemia as well as the various modalities available to treat obesity and reduce the associated medical risk factors.
John de Beixedon, M.D. is a board-certified internal medicine physician who has been in private practice in Pasadena since 1999. He received a B.S. in Zoology from Duke University in 1984, was granted his M.D. degree from St. George's University School of Medicine in 1988. He completed his Internship and Residency in Internal Medicine at the University of Virginia and has specialized in diabetes and more recently, bariatrics. Since 2008, Dr. de Beixedon has served as a medical adviser for ABC News and is also an accomplished magician and a member of the Magic Castle in Hollywood.
The Center for Disease Control (CDC) estimates that at any given time two-thirds of all American adults are on a diet to either lose weight or prevent weight gain. Yet only 5 percent of these dieters will be successful at keeping the weight that they lost off. [http://www.answerfitness.com/tag/fad-diet-statistics/]
