title: Python requests SSL error [SSL: UNKNOWN_PROTOCOL] while getting https://www.nfm.com
body: <p>Using Python 3.4 and requests 2.11.1 package to get '<a href="https://www.nfm.com" rel="nofollow">https://www.nfm.com</a>' website, requests throws an SSLError [SSL: UNKNOWN_PROTOCOL]. I'm able to get a valid response from other https sites such as pythonanywhere.com and amazon.com. The error is only encountered trying to <code>requests.get('https://www.nfm.com')</code> or <code>requests.get('https://www.nfm.com', verify=False)</code>.</p>
  
  <p>I checked NFM's certificate in Chrome and it's a valid thawte SHA256 SSL CA. Is this a problem with NFM or is there something I need to configure on my end to get a response object from this website?</p>
