Life Feels Good
June 14, 2014
Poland | 2013 | 107 minutes | Maciej Pieprzyca
2014 Golden Space Needle Award: Best Actor (Dawid Ogrodnik) | Heartbreaking and humorous, Life Feels Good has thrilled international audiences with virtuosic acting from Dawid Ogrodnik as Mateusz, a romantic, good-natured man with cerebral palsy who yearns to be understood by his family and friends. Based on a true story, this award-winning film is a testament to the endurance of the human spirit.
Heartbreaking and humorous, Life Feels Good has thrilled international audiences and swept the Polish Film Awards with virtuosic acting from Dawid Ogrodnik as Mateusz, a romantic, good-natured man with cerebral palsy who yearns to be understood by his family and friends. As he's grown up, doctors and experts have considered Mateusz a 'vegetable' with little capacity for communication—and in doing so, disregarded his rich personality and emotional life. Based on a true story, Life Feels Good is a winning testament to the endurance of the human spirit. Ogrodnik (also in SIFF 2014's Ida) performs Mateusz with astute brilliance as he grows into a man in 1980s Poland, a cultural climate rife with discrimination. As Mateusz meets his challenges head-on—like devising an ingenious, agile way to move around his home—Ogrodnik's empathetic portrayal is totally convincing. His family go through a range of emotions as they try to overcome their frustrations with naysaying clinical and institutional specialists. Mateusz has a breakthrough after meeting a teacher of Bliss language, a popular method to help engender nonverbal communication. Their collaboration revolutionizes Mateusz's life. This award-winning film miraculously underscores the vital importance of being heard and understood.
Director Biography
Born in 1964 in Katowice (Poland), Pieprzyca graduated from the Political Sciences and Journalism Dept. of the Silesian University, Scriptwriting Dept. of the State Film School in Łódź and the Directing Dept. of the State Film School in Katowice. In 2008 he debuted with Splinters, which brought him positive reviews and prizes at the international film festivals in Cairo and Houston. Life Feels Good is his second feature.

How do I submit a complaint about discrimination in the application process?
A Federal agency cannot discriminate against an employee or applicant with respect to the terms, conditions or privileges of employment on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, marital status, political affiliation, sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other factor that is not related to job performance. Discrimination on these bases is prohibited by one or more of the following statutes: 5 U.S.C. 2302(b)(1), (b)(10); 29 U.S.C. 206(d); 29 U.S.C. 633a; 29 U.S.C. 791; and 42 U.S.C. 200e-16.
If you believe that you have been the victim of unlawful discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, national origin or disability, you must contact an Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) counselor within 45 calendar days of the alleged discriminatory action, or, in the case of a personnel action, within 45 calendar days of the effective date of the action, before you can file a formal complaint of discrimination with your agency. See, e.g. 29 CFR 1614.
If you believe that you have been the victim of unlawful discrimination on the basis of age, you must either contact an EEO counselor as noted above or give notice of intent to sue to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) within 180 days of the alleged discriminatory action. For further information, check the EEOC's website at www.eeoc.gov.
If you are alleging discrimination based on marital status, political affiliation, sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other factor that is not related to job performance, you may file a written complaint with the United States Office of Special Counsel (www.osc.gov).
In the alternative, you may pursue a discrimination complaint by filing a grievance through your agency's administrative or negotiated grievance procedures, if such procedures apply and are available.

Adequate product great price
This review is from: Coby 2.1 TV Soundbar with Built-in Subwoofer And Bluetooth - CSMP90
Pros: Simple to operate & affordable
Cons: As with so many products, awful instructions
Other Thoughts: Although this should be a very simple product to install/set-up, please be aware that for it to work, you must plug the RCA jacks into cable/Sat box and not your TV.

Work in Progress: But Don't buy Yet, broken
This review is from: Coby 2.1 TV Soundbar with Built-in Subwoofer And Bluetooth - CSMP90
Pros: Shipping was as fast as possible, and I didn't pay, so that made me happy. Just the standard shipping (bought monday, arrived weds at 1pm).
Cons: Did not work upon delivery. Once plugged in, the sound does not initially work. When you press the volume button the sound plays for half a second but does not increase the level of the volume. If you hold the volume up button the sound works but does not get louder, and the sound stops half a second after you release the button
Other Thoughts: Getting this so quickly had raised my hopes for a great deal, but they were dashed (quite expertly) when nothing seemed to be functional. However, at this point, this may just be a shipping fluke or abnormal mishap. I have contacted the seller to see about getting it replace (as I can't get a "refurbished" item refunded).

In the Matter of:
No. 3128613.
Commission No. 08 CH 56
FILED - June 23, 2008
Jerome Larkin, Administrator of the Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission, by his attorney, Cass R. Buscher, pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 761(b), complains of Respondent, Jonathan Gerald Anderson, who was licensed to practice law in the State of Illinois on May 1, 1981, and alleges that Respondent has engaged in the following conduct which tends to defeat the administration of justice or bring the courts or the legal profession into disrepute.
Criminal Conviction for Assault
1. On November 17, 2006, Respondent, while appearing in court on behalf of Rita Patel, in the matter entitled In re the Marriage of Patel, case number 03 D 330179 in the Circuit Court of Cook County, began yelling at the Honorable James J. Donegan. Judge Donegan then ordered Respondent from his court room.
2. Cook County Deputy Sheriff Eric Gross ("Gross"), in performance of his official duties, attempted to escort Respondent from the courtroom pursuant to the order of Judge Donegan. Respondent initially resisted and struck Gross numerous times in his ribs.
3. As a result of Respondent's actions on November 17, 2006, Deputy Gross suffered a fractured left rib and received medical treatment for his injuries at Northwestern Memorial Hospital.
4. On November 17, 2006, the Cook County State's attorney charged Respondent by Information with a four-count complaint alleging Respondent committed aggravated assault and resisting or obstructing a peace officer. The matter was docketed as People v. Anderson case number 06-CR-27493. On May 23, 2008, the Cook County State's attorney added a charged of assault in violation of 720 ILCS 5/12-1, a class C misdemeanor.
5. On May 23, 2008, Respondent pled guilty to the reduced charge of assault in exchange for the dismissal of the three charges of aggravated battery and the charge of resisting or obstructing a peace officer in case number 06-CR-27493. The Honorable William Joseph Kunkle sentenced Respondent to 50 hours of community service, anger management treatment and a fine of $300. A copy of the judgment of conviction is attached as Administrator's Exhibit 1.
6. By reason of the conduct described above, Respondent has engaged in the following misconduct:
committed a criminal act that reflects adversely on the lawyer's honesty, trustworthiness or fitness as a lawyer by violating 720 ILCS 5/12-1, in violation of rule 8.4(a)(3) of the Illinois Rules of Professional Conduct, and;
conduct that is prejudicial to the administration of justice, in violation of Rule 8.4(a)(5) of the Illinois Rules of Professional Conduct; and
conduct that tends to defeat the administration of justice or to bring the courts or the legal profession into disrepute, in violation of Supreme Court Rule 770.
WHEREFORE, The Administrator requests that this matter be assigned to a panel of the Hearing Board, that a hearing be held, and that the panel make findings of fact, conclusions of fact and law, and a recommendation for such discipline as is warranted.
|Cass R. Buscher
Counsel for the Administrator

Toby's passion for excellence and science drives the innovation of Tria's revolutionary light based skin solutions.
How does your background (as a Tria
founder) influence your approach to light science?
In the beginning, it was our hope that we could bring the benefits of clinic-based treatments to the home. We've shown that we can and provide people with access to great phototherapy. We've learned what aspects of the science and engineering are most important for our particular products and our customers.
What is the best advice you've received?
A company is its people—hire great ones. And we have. You won't find a company with more capable and dedicated people than Tria. It's wonderful to be a part of.
How do you relate to customers?
Hardly a day goes by where I don't interact with someone who's using or is interested in our products.
What Tria advancements are you most excited about?
I'm thrilled that we've been able to simultaneously lower costs while at the same time make the products better, such as faster and easier to use.

What sets light-based skincare
apart from other treatments?
Light therapy is inherently a more effective treatment to affect tissues below the skin's surface [than other topical treatments]. Its skin-penetrating property and selective absorption by the desired targets makes it an ideal non-invasive treatment.
Describe your approach to
innovating with light?
Tria's approach for innovating with light is to identify the unique light spectrum and develop light engine technology with sufficient power to achieve effective therapy.
How do you ensure customer satisfaction?
We design simple-to-use and elegant devices that customers can adopt into their routine safely and simultaneously achieve great results.
Dave Youngquist
Sr. Director, Product Design and Mechanical Engineering
With four U.S. patents to his name, Dave is an expert in new product definition and development of medical devices. Not only did he architect skin rejuvenation prototypes of Fraxel®, he was also involved with the Thermage® product line engineering at Solta Medical. At Tria, Dave provides technical leadership in state-of-the-art mechanical and industrial design as well as product development.
How do Tria engineers develop
industrial designs?
We start with dozens of prototypes that include functional breadboards, design (look and feel) models and functional devices that are used in early clinical investigations. We partner with design firms and test prototypes with consumers.
At what point do you know when a prototype is ready to be a commercial design?
With the look and feel models, we usually get to one that connects with a lot of people—one that looks and feels just like the end product we had in mind.
How does Tria deliver the same dermatologist proven technology at home?
By capitalising on technological advances in diode—based laser light sources, and smart design. We pride ourselves on ease of use with the consumer in mind.
Is there anything about working
with light that is challenging?
The optical elements that are required, such as precision lenses, are generally expensive items that require custom designs—taking a long time to develop and produce. Getting these components quickly and economically into home devices is challenging.
Pat Reichert
Director, Optical Engineering
Pat has over 20 years of experience in laser/optical systems research and development, mechanical design and process development. He oversees a team of engineers and technicians to design and develop state-of-the-art medical light based systems. He provides technical leadership with solid fundamental physical understanding, and creates and tests new product concepts.
Where do you find inspiration for
new product concepts?
Most of my inspiration actually comes from talking with people about our existing products. Once they find out what we make, there is always the question of…can you guys do this or that other thing with light.
How do you determine the correct type of light for Tria designs?
The correct color of light for a specific design is chosen based on established research by the scientific community and our own clinical test data.
How is Tria innovating its product designs to make them state-of-the-art?
We continually test and measure our performance against metrics such as treatment efficacy, manufacturability, cost to manufacture, consumer usability and reliability.
Do you test products on yourself?
Of course! I'm an engineer and an experimentalist at heart. Most of us who work here have tested our products on ourselves. Final efficacy data for all of our products, however, is always based on clinical study results.
John Beale
Principal Scientist
John received his Masters in Applied Physics from Stanford. Since then, he's added three patents to his name showcasing his expertise in system architecture. John's ability to inspire creativity and provide leadership in optimising and documenting software embedded systems and manufacturing test tooling host software is invaluable.
Describe the prototype process.
Starting from a list of requirements, each new feature not previously demonstrated in other prototypes or products are tested with purpose-built experimental setups. Once proven, these are included in the new prototype design which includes circuit design as well as mechanical and optical design.
How have Tria Laser and Blue Light learnings been applied to future developments?
Our approach to skin contact sensing and battery qualification, among other things, has evolved and improved based on experience with these previous products.
How have successful innovations in
other fields inspired/influenced Tria designs?
One example of cross-fertilization is our use of lithium ferro-phosphate battery technology, which has properties that are especially well-matched to the requirements of the hair laser. This type of battery was originally produced for use in electric bicycles.
Describe the relationship between technology and beauty.
Technical advances in solid-state optical devices, including infrared lasers and high-power LEDs, have enabled new types of skin treatments which were never before possible.

Tonight I decided to go for a walk. It was not my best decision apparently. After being pissed off at a friend of a friend for rape jokes, I needed some air. On my walk, I encountered one man, who was certain I was "his babe" and thought I needed to know how much he found my butt attractive. I didn't. I told this man to fuck off and continued on my walk. However, after reaching the beach to which I was headed, enjoying myself and returning upon my way, I spotted a rather sketch looking man. A man around 5'6 (I estimate), chubby, light brunette hair and plaid shorts. With his hands in them. I was hoping this man would simply continue on his way and I could do such as well. As I continued walking, however, the man decided to follow me. I walked faster, he walked faster. I crossed to the other side of the street, so did he. I took a knife out of my pocket and into my grip, he slowed a little, but did not cease following. And just as I was going to turn and confront this man, a group of college students around my age came upon the street and saw the man following me with his hands in his pants. They started yelling, he stopped, they continued, I walked faster, he did not follow. Unfortunately, just before making it to my house, I spotted him again, this time across the street though. I stopped on a neighbor's porch, held my knife and waited. He left. I'm not sure if he saw me this time or not. But this was certainly not the walk I was looking for.
Ocean City is supposed to be a "family based town". The entire island is alcohol free. You'd think just a simple 45 minute distant run would be no problem…nope! I started running for MAYBE 10 seconds but it didn't matter because the verbal abuse started. I crossed the street and this car full of guys were yelling things at me like, "hey you in the pink sports bra" and "nice a**!". Worst part of all was that my younger brothers were running behind me. This verbal abuse makes me not want to go out and exercise.
Apparently men have no age discrimination when it comes to harassment. I was taking a power-walk with my 25 year old sister and my 50-something year old mother. (I'm 22). We were coming up to a house that had three men that look like they were in their early 20's, all washing the same car. I could feel the tension building as we walked up to them. As soon as we got within 3 feet of them one of them said "Hey ladies, can we walk with y'all?" and then all the guys started laughing. I said "No thanks," and we kept walking. I felt their eyes burning into our backsides as we kept walking. I felt literally dirty after this happened, and embarrassed that it happened in front of my mother of all people.
As I walked past a group of 3 men, probably in their 30s, they started yelling, "Hey girl", "Hey white girl", "hey white girl in the black dress with the nice tits"…I continued to walk past them, trying to ignore them, but one stood up and walked after me saying, "what, are you racist or something? won't talk to a black man?" I couldn't remain silent any more…and I responded, "No. I don't talk to people that objectify and disrespect me." His cronies on the bench laughed, and he held his hands up and backed off.
Normally we do not post racial identifiers on this site, as per our anti discrimination policy. Exceptions include when the relevance of race is central to the story, as is the case in this post.
I spent the last semester abroad in Morocco. I've experienced street harassment but never like this. I was living in the medina, or old city, with a family, and every day my walk to and from school was a total battle. I hoped eventually I would get used to it, or the men would give up. But as much as I grew over the semester, I had to realize they didn't.
On one occasion I was walking by myself on the main avenue of the "French city". The sidewalks were crowded, people everywhere, big wide public spaces. Out of nowhere 5 boys went by on rollerblades, ages ranging from 25 to 16. The first one grabbed my breast as he went by. I turned to scream at him and another slapped my ass. A third grabbed my breast again. I screamed and cursed every word I knew in Arabic but no one did a thing. Families simply stared at the white girl causing a scene. The worst part was I was about a block away from a police station.
The actual groping was not an every day occurrence, but it was clear men knew about it. Any boy on a bike would swerve towards you and turn away at the last second with a terrible smile on his face as if to tell you, "I could if I wanted to."
And the guys on my program never fully got it. They'd say it's a big deal in the states too, or act as if it wasn't a huge deal. Or give you tips on how to avoid it as if they know anything about how to deal with it. There is nothing a girl can do that should ever make that okay. It does not matter what she wears, how she holds her head, what words she screams after the fact. It just shouldn't happen.
Towards the end my boyfriend came to visit. Suddenly, I could walk down the same streets with him and never hear a thing. It made me mad. The second he walked away, it would start up again. The men had no respect for me as a person, simply for my boyfriend and what apparently belonged to him.
In the end, we couldn't hold back anymore and the girls on my program began verbally confronting men who would harass us. They always seemed in total shock that we didn't like it. Apparently having someone violate your personal space and whisper obscenities in your ear without your choice is welcoming. I do believe a lot of them meant it without harm, but their willingness to let the cat-calling and following and pestering slide meant it was so much easier for those men who did mean harm to get away with it.
I live close to my workplace and I always like to take a walk to and from it to save gas and get exercise. While I was walking to work early one morning, a man stuck his head out of his vehicle as he drove by and yelled out an indiscernible comment. I thought nothing of it at first since I live on a main street in a city with many people. However, this man drove by me four more times, each time yelling something. The last two times he drove by, he swerved to the side of the road that I was walking on and asked me if I would like to go for a ride with him. The first time he asked me I replied, "No thank you, I am fine with walking." The second time I told him if he didn't leave me alone that I would call the Police. I took out my phone to get ready to call and walked briskly away and he finally drove away for the last time. I live close to where prostitutes work but that does not merit his disrespectful behavior. Some perverts just need to know when to quit and leave girls alone.
I used to love to run on the Greenline Trail near where I lived in Memphis. The only creepy thing was that it wound right alongside the county jail. On this particular day, not many people were out on the trail, and as I ran by the jail, I was completely alone. Out of the blue, I heard a voice coming from the jail: "Hey girl! I see you! Hey! I see you gettin' right for the summer! Yeah, you! I see you! Hey girl!" I tried so hard to ignore the faceless voice, but all I wanted to do was scream "Shut the hell up!" I couldn't manage to respond at all, and I was so creeped out by this, I never ran that way again. Inappropriate.
I was out with my boyfriend and a couple of his friends at local ski resort bar in Blue Mountain. We were dancing and have a great time, when some brute of a guy walked past me and slapped my butt extremely hard. I turned around and screamed, "don't fucking touch me!" At this point my boyfriend clued in, grabbed an empty beer bottle and raised it towards the offending individual. (I realized this may not have been the right move, but hell, it got the point across) What the guy said next actually blew my mind, "hey man, I'm just looking to have a good time, no offense." He apologized to my boyfriend, not me, as if I was HIS property. My boyfriend then told him to apologize to me and probably yelled some other obscenities his way before the guy ran off with his tail between his legs. I was fuming the entire night, to know that some guy thought he could use my butt, a complete stranger's butt, as his enjoyment for the night. I'm glad he was thoroughly made a fool of.
I have accepted that public transportation in my city is less than ideal, but my job is good and I don't have a car, so I deal with it.
On the way home, I noticed a guy injecting what I hope was insulin into his belly with a large syringe. He was doing it with some difficulty and the syringe was waving around. I was horrified that he had a needle on the bus and couldn't take my eyes off it. He took this to mean that I found him irresistible. He handed me a slip of paper with his name and phone number on it and said,"call me sometime." I nodded and slipped it in my bag, not knowing what to do.
A few stops later, he sat in the seat next to mine, asked what time it was, and touched the arm closest to him when I answered. As a person who needed my front of the bus seat more than I did got on the bus, I moved back a bit and sat next to a small girl, but the guy didn't let up. I got off the bus at my stop and noticed he did as well. He followed me halfway down the block toward my house, not riding his bike quickly, just fast enough to keep up with my gait. He finally got bored and turned around and left, but I was shaken the rest of the way home. Does being a woman mean I have to put up with that kind of s— just by taking the bus?
I was walking with my brother who had come from out of town to help me move into a new place in a new neighborhood. As we were walking, someone yelled to him out of their car "hey, your girl has a nice ass" I was really embarrassed, but my brother yelled back "she's my sister" The driver then yelled "calm down, I'm just complimenting you both!"
When my brother told the story to our friends when we went out that night, everyone thought it was funny and his wife even said "that's cute" but I was so embarrassed, even by the re-telling.

Highlights of Haarlem
By Rick Steves
Cute and cozy, yet handy to the airport, Haarlem is a fine home base in Holland, offering small-town, overnight warmth with easy access (20 minutes by train) to wild and crazy Amsterdam.
Bustling Haarlem gave America's Harlem its name back when New York was "New Amsterdam," a Dutch colony. For centuries, Haarlem has been a market town, buzzing with shoppers heading home with fresh bouquets, nowadays by bike.
Enjoy the market on Monday (clothing) or Saturday (general), when the square bustles like a Brueghel painting with cheese, fish, flowers, and families. Make yourself at home — buy some flowers to brighten your hotel room.
Grote Markt (Market Square), where 10 streets converge, is the town's delightful centerpiece...as it has been for 700 years. To enjoy a coffee or beer here, simmering in Dutch good living, is a quintessential European experience. Observe. Sit and gaze at the church, appreciating essentially the same scene that Dutch artists captured centuries ago in oil paintings that now hang in museums.
Just a few years ago, trolleys ran through the square and cars were parked everywhere. But today it's a people zone, with market stalls filling the square on market days and café tables on other days. This is a great place to build a picnic with Haarlem finger foods: raw herring, local cheese (Gouda and Edam), a frikandel (little corn-dog sausage), French fries with mayonnaise, stroopwafels (waffles with syrup), poffertjes (little sugar doughnuts), or one of many different international foods (falafel, shoarma, Indonesian).
Overseeing the square is a statue of L. J. Coster (c. 1370–1440), the man Haarlemmers credit with creating modern printing techniques. Forty years before Gutenberg "invented" the first printing press, this man carved the letter "A" out of wood, dropped it into some wet sand and saw the imprint it left. He got the idea of making movable type out of wood (and later he may have tried using lead). In the statue, Coster holds up a block of movable type and points to himself, saying: "I made this." How much Coster did is uncertain, but Gutenberg trumped him by building a printing press, casting type in metal, and pounding out the Bible. (And the Chinese beat them both by several centuries.)
Also on Haarlem's market square is the Town Hall, the site of the city's government since about 1100 (when William the Conqueror ruled England). While most of medieval Europe was ruled by kings, dukes, and barons, Haarlem has been largely self-governing since 1425.
The town drunk used to hang out on the bench in front of the Town Hall, where he'd expose himself to newlyweds coming down the stairs. The Dutch, rather than arrest the man, simply moved the bench. No bench, no problem.
Rising above the square is the impressive Grote Kerk (Great Church), one of the best-known landmarks in the Netherlands. Sit and gaze at the church, appreciating the same scene that Golden Age Dutch artists captured in oil paintings you'll see in Dutch museums.
The interior of the 16th-century church is dominated by Holland's greatest pipe organ. It's 100 feet high, with 5,000 pipes and a sound that impressed both Handel and Mozart. During the summer months, the church hosts free concerts.
Another of Haarlem's gems is the Frans Hals Museum, a tribute to the hometown artist. This refreshing museum — located in a 17th-century almshouse — displays many of the masterful portrait painter's greatest works.
Across the street, the small History Museum offers a glimpse of old Haarlem. During the city's Golden Age four centuries ago, Haarlem was a thriving commercial center rivaling Amsterdam. Back then, the town was a port on the large Haarlemmer Lake, with the North Sea only about five miles away (threatened by floods, residents eventually diverted the lake into canals to preserve shipping business, and then pumped the remaining land dry). As well as being Holland's tulip capital, Haarlem was a manufacturing center producing wool, silk, lace, damask cloth, furniture, smoking pipes (along with cheap, locally grown tobacco), and mass quantities of beer. Haarlemmers were notorious consumers of beer. It was a popular breakfast drink, and the average person drank six pints a day.
For a somber look at Haarlem history, visit the Corrie ten Boom House. In The Hiding Place, an inspirational book and movie, Corrie ten Boom gives the other half of the Anne Frank story: the point of view of those who risked their lives to hide Dutch Jews during the Nazi occupation (1940–1945). Living above the family clock shop, Corrie and her sister Betsy, both in their 50s, and their elderly father built a secret room in the very back of their home off Corrie's tiny bedroom. They used the small hideaway to house six to seven Jews at a time.
In 1944, the Gestapo — tipped off that the family was harboring Jews — burst into the Ten Boom house. Finding a suspiciously high number of ration coupons, the Nazis arrested the family (but failed to find the six Jews in the hiding place, who later escaped). Corrie's father and sister died while in prison, but Corrie survived the Ravensbrück concentration camp to tell her story in a memoir.
To sample more of Haarlem, take a scenic cruise through the canals, or wander through the city's little red light district two blocks off Grote Markt. Legal since the 1980s, it's a warm-up for the more brazen and boisterous experience that awaits in Amsterdam, just a short ride away by train.

Empress of the Deep
by: Big Fish Games | 3.6K

by: Big Fish Games | 3.6K
by Ana Gracia
In Empress of the Deep, a young woman wakes up after having been frozen for over a century. She's in a temple undersea and she has to escape and discover the mystery of what really happened to her.
As other similar games by the same developer, you'll have to navigate through the different scenes and find the hidden objects that will make Anna acknowledge her past. Empress of the Deep has a first version and the second chapter, which is also really exciting and enjoyable. What we really appreciate is that the storyline is pretty well developed, not only the graphics and gameplay. You can play it for free and then unlock the full version inside the game.
Big Fish Games was developed in 2002 and these two games were created by them. Have a good time searching for clues in the sea!

Do you know what the FREED Act is? It's the Federal Response to the Elimination of Eating Disorders, and it's a bill that we need YOUR help to pass.
For over a decade, the Eating Disorders Coalition (EDC) has been active on Capitol Hill working with the federal government to help make eating disorders a federal health priority. With the highest mortality rate of any mental health disorder, we need a bill like the FREED Act to help those who suffer from eating disorders get the help they need and deserve.
I've been volunteering with the EDC for 5 years now, and am currently a Junior Board member. Sometimes people ask me if I really think lobbying is worth it because of how complicated and partisan politics can be. I'll admit, it can be discouraging. But those in office really do pay attention and listen to people who take time out of their lives to come and discuss issues with them. There's so much misinformation out there about eating disorders that we need people who have had real-world experience with them to come and educate lawmakers. Putting a face and a name to a real story goes a lot farther than any statistics, no matter how shocking or upsetting they might be.
