SANTA MONICA, CA, May 22, 2011 (Press-News.org) This unusual film about our uncertain times examines the potential dangers of foreseeing the end-of-the-world by charismatic personaiities and was recently reviewed in indieWIRE, the online independent film daily by Sydney Levine, a well-known quantity in the international film scene - and she comments: "Both funny and emotional, it deals with the paranormal and conscious awakening, challenging us about who we are, how we act, and the meaning of existence."
Writer/director Goss contends, "Everything you've heard about the so-called apocalypse" is WRONG, ...and after listening to all this catastrophobic fear mongering about end-times online and in other media, it's time for us to take a realistic view of this transformational epic we're living through - not only globally, politically, ethically, and spiritually, but to reflect on what it means to us personally."
Temporally caught in the stream between Roland Emmerich's "2012" and Von Trier's "Melancholia" APOCALYPSE ACCORDING TO DORIS finds solid ground to stand on, while it's main characters each face and survive their own personal apocalypse.
International distributor and rights manager Blairwood Entertainment represents worldwide rights and has premiered APOCALYPSE ACCORDING TO DORIS at the 2011 Cannes Marche du Film. All domestic rights are available.
APOCALYPSE ACCORDING TO DORIS is screening Saturday, June 25, 2011 at 3:10 PM in theater B of the Sunset Community Center, 9th Avenue and Carlos Street in Carmel, CA.

San Francisco Plastic Surgery & Laser Center Offers New hCG Weight Loss Treatment
2011-05-22
Dr. Usha Rajagopal, a board-certified plastic surgeon with offices in San Francisco, announced last week that her practice now offers hCG hormone injection treatments for men and women seeking an effective, viable weight loss solution.
The hCG diet employs a twofold approach: Dieters simultaneously receive daily injections of hCG and follow a strict, low-calorie diet for between 26 and 43 days. The hCG hormone--which occurs naturally in pregnant women--boosts the metabolism and increases the body's ability to burn fat at a higher rate than normal, while at the same time ...

Ten Minutes That Could Save Your Life
2011-05-22
Leading Pasadena cosmetic dentist, Dr. H. Robert Stender, urges patients to take advantage of oral cancer screenings. Just because you can't feel it, doesn't mean it isn't there. Just ask the more than 50,000 Americans who were diagnosed with cancers of the head and neck last year. Unfortunately, many Americans do not recognize the symptoms of these life-threatening diseases, which include cancers of the oral cavity, larynx and pharynx, and by the time they are diagnosed, for some, it's too late.
Oral, head and neck cancers claim approximately 12,000 lives per year. ...
A Streamlined Parcel Delivery System is Key to Growth, Says Parcel2Go
2011-05-22
Sustained pressure on consumer spending means companies must make customer satisfaction their top priority, according to the UK's leading online parcel delivery service.
A report released this week by economic think tank Ernst & Young's Item Club predicts that spending across the UK will only rise by 0.6 per cent this year, and by 1.3 per cent in 2012. The club believes consumer spending will not fully recover to pre-recession levels until 2013, meaning businesses will have to work harder than ever to ensure growth.

Does eating give you pleasure, or make you anxious?
2011-05-22
Perhaps the most puzzling symptom of anorexia nervosa – a disorder that tends to occur in young women – is the refusal to eat, resulting in extreme weight loss. While most people have a great deal of difficulty in dieting and losing weight, particularly if a diet extends over many months or years, individuals with anorexia nervosa can literally diet themselves to death. In fact, this disorder has a very high death rate from starvation. A new study, now online in the journal International Journal of Eating Disorders, sheds light on why these symptoms occur in anorexia ...
