You know, i was so excited to be joining you today. And i was coming to the conference and i saw the theme was to be invincible. I took a minute to take a look at the dictionary to say what are some of the other ideas and themes behind the word invincible.

Residents here. Thank you to everyone who joined us on the tours earlier of the unit.

This is a moment because not only are they passing these bills which are so harmful, but they are going into other relatede fields like stem cell research.
