Almighty God, thank you on behalf of all who are gathered here tonight for the freedom for us to assemble as a council of this community. We especially lift up tonight the Kentucky American winners of the Science Fair who will receive awards in various categories such as behavioral science, botany, earth space science, engineering, physics, geology, and more. We give thanks for the opportunity for them to share in the excitement of this scientific process and congratulate them for their achievements. O God, you've given us the insight that as citizens we have the responsibility to obey the governing authorities since you've established those very authorities to promote peace and order and justice. Therefore, we pray for our Mayor Jim and Linda, our Vice Mayor, and Council Members Chuck, Steve, Chris, Tom, Diane, Julian, Bill, Kevin, Casey, George, Jay, Doug, and Peggy. I'm asking that you will graciously grant them wisdom to govern amidst the conflicting interests and issues of our times, a sense of the welfare and true needs of our community of Lexington, a keen thirst for justice and rightness in our community and confidence in what is good and fitting. I pray for the agenda set before them tonight. We ask that you guide them as what you would please, that would be what would please you and what would benefit those who live and work in and around our beloved city of Lexington. In your most blessed name I pray, amen. Father Sessom, thank you so much.

Thank you, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you, Lord. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. All right. Are we all back together? That was a... Well, Nikki, you probably wonder if we go through this every week. I can see that look on your face. I can see the smiles on every council member's face following the presentations that we just had and preparing for the one that we're just about to make. I guess in a sense you could say that we were moving from the sciences to the arts with a very special, special guest. As most of you know, University of Kentucky professor Nikki Finney won the 2011 National Book Award for Poetry. For her book, Head Off and Split. The first National Book Award ever presented to a U.K. faculty member, Dr. Blues. And just, I couldn't help it. And we all know, just an incredible achievement for one of our very own. I love telling this story, and Lori is sitting right beside Nikki, because when Nikki won the award, and when, of course, it went universally across the globe, her acceptance remarks that night, Lori called me, and she said, Did you hear the news? I'm like, No. And then she could hardly get it out. She was just so excited. I think the whole Morris bookstore was erupting. But what was so really wonderful about Laurie's story was that then a week later, she was talking about at the Carnegie Center. She was saying, and you know that when Nikki first came to Lexington, she was in a little cubbyhole over at the Carnegie Center. And that's where her inspiration, so much of her inspiration for her poetry began emerging. So we won't ask her to recite that speech that took so much credit all across the Internet. I love saying though what Frank Walker said I saw him on Main Street, Frank X about a month ago and I said you know we've been trying to get a hold of Nicky and he wouldn't even let me finish the sentence he said Jim, her dance card is so full I am getting emails from people asking me how to get in touch with her we are so honored by your honors and tonight it is our special privilege Nikki Finney to present a proclamation from your city for all that you have done to represent us so well and to honor us so richly and sometimes I don't read this but I think the council will allow me to do that and it says Nikki Finney Day I Jim Gray, Mayor of Lexington Fayette Urban County Government in recognition of the 2011 National Book Award winning poet and Lexington's International Literary Ambassador do hereby proclaim February 23, 2012 as Nikki Finney Day. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. I told Jim that if I had known it was Nikki Finney Day, I would not have gone into my office and to my class to teach my students. I would have taken the day off. It's too late for all that now. I thank you so much for this beautiful proclamation and for taking the time to recognize poetry and the arts in Lexington, which has a vibrant, vibrant community here. I hope you know that. I want to say quickly two things. when the students were leaving I had a flashback to being 10 years old and one I wanted to be a paleontologist before I wanted to be a poet and so I had a flashback of that moment where I used to keep a book on dinosaurs in my back pocket but that quickly went away when I discovered poetry but the second thing I want to say is you do not win the national book award alone. It does not happen in that way. When I walked up to get that amazing award in New York City on November 16th, a hundred other people walked with me. Librarians, public school teachers, my parents, my grandparents, people who stopped me on the street when I was 9 and 15 and 18 years old to say, how are you? What are you doing? What did you learn today? That made some sort of investment in me early on. And so that speech that I made was intent upon bringing all of those folks with me into that room and into that moment. And you know, because You sit here week after week with empathy, with great minds, with all kinds of things going on, and you know that you represent several different communities in Lexington. And we all invest in each other, and that's how we get ahead. So I thank you for this. I thank you for myself. I thank you for my family. I thank you for my students. And it's an honor indeed to come here tonight and have a moment with you. Thank you very much. Thank you. All right, guys. Everybody look pretty. Good job, guys. Say a few seconds. A couple quick ones now. Hold that guy. One more time. Very nice. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Congratulations. OK. I have to walk on that center. .

This will be a good opportunity to get some of those ideas in your head for home remodeling. And also, Council Member or Commissioner Driscoll, I know we had asked Tuesday for the fire information.
