And for well, we're going to drop the forearms and we're going to make an L on each side and that stands for live. They're going to check those arms straight out into a T and that stands for taller. So this is a stretch for your posture open up this test strength in the back kind of get rid of that rounded posture. So up why you W well. Live T taller. You will live. Taller. You will live. Taller one more. You will live. Taller good job. You can pick those weights up for me. Continuing to work on this posture. You get very rounded. You know, we're a culture that looks at our phone all day. We're rounded as we age we get more rounded and these muscles get really tight. So we need to stretch them out and strengthen the muscles in the back so that we can have better posture sit-up tall. So we're going to do rows. You're going to take the weights want you to hold your tummy in tip forward just a little bit point those weights toward the floor and then pull the elbows right beside the body squeeze the shoulder blades and then backed in. Exhale on that squeeze and then back in. We and holding that coming in tight. One more and I want you to hold this one right here. Now take those shoulder blades and give me little squeezes. So we're not flapping the elbows, even though the elbows move. Yeah, we so shoulder blade. And relax and roll that out a little bit and we're going to go back into working this tricep. So what we're going to do. I'm going to turn sideways in my chair so that you can see the proper form. So we're going to we're going to get in that row position right here. So the elbows are behind you. You're going to take the weight. You're going to kick it back and pull it back in. You do not move the upper arm from the shoulder to the elbow. It's going to stay steady. So we're not doing this number and rotating that shoulder. Get those elbows behind you and we go straight back and back in. So just make sure you keep that stationary on this move. You can alternate right and left if you want or you can put those arms together. So we'll get in position and then we'll just alternate right and left. Or we will put those arms together and kick back. Alternating right and left or arms together. Give me a kick back. Your choice. Nice and controlled. Just a couple more. Alternating right and left or kicking back together. One more for me. Good job guys. Put the weights down. Let's pick up that ball. Remember if you don't have a ball at home, you can use a small pillow or a towel. If you need to drink water, this is another good chance for that. And always remember we are sitting on the front of our chair. We're holding our tummy in tight. So I'm going to take the ball. I'm going to work the hands a little bit here. Then holding those weights tight. We need to just loosen up these hands. So I'm just squeezing, rotating the ball. I'm kind of tapping my feet to the beat of the music. You don't have to. Now I've got my palms on the ball. Fingers are off. Elbows are in tight. Squeeze and release. Squeeze and release. And when you squeeze that ball, I want you to think about squeezing the muscles across the chest. Don't squeeze with those arms out here. Keep those elbows in. When we extend the elbows out to the sides like that, it puts an awful lot of pressure on the wrist. We don't want to run the risk of fracture. Keep those elbows in. Little squeezes here. Now I want you to squeeze and breathe. Hold that squeeze. Breathe and relax. One more. Fingers off the ball. Squeeze with the palms. Good job. ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ All right. Good afternoon, everybody. All right. Good afternoon. Calling to order this confirmation hearing for Ethics Commission for Ms. Chrysanthia Turner. Ms. Turner, if you would come up to the podium, please. So the way this will work is I will ask you to... I'm sorry. It's noisy. We've got a big crowd outside today. I'm going to ask you to tell us a little bit about yourself and kind of tell us why you applied for this position. Then I'm going to open up the floor to questions from our council members. And then we're going to go into closed session. We're going to head back there, discuss amongst ourselves, and then we'll come back out with a decision. Sure. So thank you, first of all, for applying for this. We always appreciate that. And if you could just tell us a little bit about yourself and why you're applying for the Ethics Commission. So I'm Chrysanthia Turner. Chrissy is what I go by. Much easier name than Chrysanthia. And so I have been a resident of Lexington for over 30 years. I came to UK and stayed, went to law school here after that. I've raised my daughters here. My professional career is here. And one of the things that kind of drew me to Lexington was, as a little girl, I lived about an hour and a half east from here. So if we needed to go to the dentist, the doctor, to the mall, to movies, we always came to Lexington. And to me, it was the center of the universe, coming out of a town that had 2,000 people in it. And so when I was a child, I felt that way. And once I lived here for a while, went to school here, I still felt that way. And it is a very special place to me. I love everything about Lexington, the people. I love the way the city has run, the way the city is respected. And I was trying to think of something non-corny to say, but that's kind of how I feel. I just have a lot of respect for service. And when I was asked by Danny Murphy if I was interested in applying for this position, I have a lot of respect for Danny, and so it meant a lot to me that he asked that. And so I thought, yes, I definitely want to apply. Thank you very much. And again, I apologize for the noise. You caught us on our last meeting day. I'm going to open up the floor to my colleagues for any questions or comments for you. Council Member Sheehan. Thank you, Chair. Thank you for being willing to serve in this position. I noticed you're a 5th District resident in your application materials, so I appreciate that too. But in your materials, you talked about some of your experience on the Ethics Committee for Stites and Harbison. Could you talk a little bit more about how that informs your thinking, and maybe particular cases, obviously without the details, that you were faced with that might have been challenging for you, or kind of how you've evolved over time in your thinking about ethics? So every situation is a little bit different, but you have to listen completely and understand the rules by which you are bound to follow. There are so many times when you feel a certain way compassionately, either for or against something, but that is not why you're placed in the position. You're placed in the position to evaluate the facts, apply them to the rules that are in front of you, and come to a just and a fair answer after you have heard all of the facts. And did you go through any particular training for that role, or any other training that you've done for your profession related to ethics? Not for my profession, but I have served at a collegiate level at a board very similar, a judicial board, and that was in college some time ago, so it's been a while, but I have not had formal training during my professional career. Thank you. Thank you, Chair. Thank you. Ms. Turner, can you recall a time where you had to make, either as a member of one of these committees or boards, where you had to make a very difficult decision and or a situation where you ended up being the dissenting opinion or the minority opinion on a situation? Can you talk us through maybe one of those kind of experiences? Sure. So without naming clients or anything or circumstances, I have not been very pleased when I have been asked to represent a particular type of establishment that I did not have any respect for. But as an attorney and as an establishment needing legal advice, I felt that I could do so impartially. And whether I liked or did not like an entity that needed my assistance, that is my job and my responsibility, and I needed to do it again according to the rules and after I was informed of all the facts. Can you talk us through a little bit about that? Because that's a very interesting point, right? You come in maybe with some preconceived notions or preconceived even biases, right? How do you in your own head work around those biases or put those biases aside? Because I know it's not as easy as just saying, I'm not going to think about that, right? Well, it wasn't something that came natural to me, especially as a child, right and wrong is black and white, and that's how I was taught. And so when I was in law school, this is the answer. It's got to be the answer clearly, and I would start my paper, clearly this is the answer. But it was at a time when I wasn't, I guess, as emotionally mature as I am now, and I tried to make sure that I have no gut reaction or emotional feeling when I'm listening to the facts because that can very well get in the way of the right decision. So that's something that actually it took me a while to learn, and it took me a while to learn that not everybody thinks the same way that I do, and I need to listen more than speak. And so those types of principles have kind of guided me through reaching decisions when facts are difficult or the outcome would be undesirable or something that would be reflected on me if I made a certain decision. Actually, I was thinking about that earlier today, what if I am asked to look at something or reach a decision that would be unpopular or not what the majority of the people who didn't know the facts felt. And so I thought I can do this, I need to do this, and so that's why I'm here today asking to be considered for that position. Thank you very much. Council members, any other questions for Ms. Turner? If not, I'll entertain a motion to go into closed session. All those in favor, please say aye. Aye. All right, we are in closed session.
