Thank you, Councilman Lopez. Your motion to adopt. Mr. President, I move that council proclamation 648 series of 2014 be adopted. It has been moved in. Second comments from members of council. Councilman Lopez. Thank you, Mr. President. And unfortunately, because there are a lot of chefs that are probably cooking right now, we couldn't get any with us today. But they express not only their gratitude for acknowledging their efforts, but their regrets and not being able to come. All this talk about chefs has got me hungry, and as you can tell, I probably know more fitness. I probably know more chefs than fitness trainers. But this this proclamation really hits home for me because there's so many people who are being treated for cancer. Now, I could say that happily in October, God willing, it'll be five years since my first treatment for for cancer. And I'm cancer free so fast all the way to October. So I got to wait till October to be able to say that all the way. But I know there's a lot of people, especially especially us men, that don't like to talk about cancer, especially certain types of cancer. And we sometimes become a little bit too macho to to check or to acknowledge it or to look out for each other. It's not to say that cancer isn't as in an issue for women, as opposed to this is something that affects everybody. I think the the statistic was one in four people. Right. One point in their life. I think that's that's what they had told me. But this organization is doing a great job. And so I just wanted to acknowledge the folks with this organization, National Pink, entire organization, and to make sure that as men are wearing a pink or fuchsia tie on Saturday, August 16th, which is a very important day as well too, from for me. And I'll be wearing this pink tie again, because that was the day that my grandfather, who was diagnosed with liver cancer, had left this world on August 16. So it is a very, very important proclamation, a very important day for me. And I just wanted to share that being that we won't have anybody to receive the proclamation. I just want to make sure, Mr. President, that this was read in the. Council chambers and that we are supportive and encourage folks to support this proclamation and we will transmit this to the national entire organization as soon as possible. Thank you, Councilman Lopez. Any other comments from members of council? Scene nine Madam Secretary, roll call. Lopez Hi, Montero. Nevitt Hi. Ortega I'm Rob Shepherd Brown. Brooks. I. Fights.
