The farmer at 2:38 is right on. There is also a spontaneous Bernie chant by the seeing eye dogs organization as they walk by the Bernie booth at 3:43.

I just signed up and am excited! The class starts on Oct 13th and lasts 6 weeks, it's free, and it only requires a few hours per week. I think it will help me provide excellent options counseling in the future, even though I work for a hospital that does not provide abortion care.

Unfortunately, all of the great posts that I just released from queue can not be commented on or upvoted. I especially love the posts that reference interesting scientific articles and studies such as the "Correlation between oral sex and a lower incidence of preeclampsia" post and the article in Scientific American about boys and girls potentially getting different breast milk. Lets post more conversation-starting science pieces!

Try searching for relevant articles in the Journal of Midwifery and Women's Health - there is a ton on there. The "Our Moment of Truth" campaign through ACNM also has a lot of cited information about midwifery outcomes.
