Turlock Mayor-elect Gary Soiseth welcomed in a host of new student councilmembers at Crowell Elementary School on Friday.

“I’m always excited to promote civic engagement at any age,” said Soiseth, who encouraged the kids to be involved in their school and community.

Soiseth says he started his blossoming political career as a fifth-grader at Julien Elementary as a “judge,” similar to a student resolution counselor under the guidance of now Cunningham Elementary Principal Tami Truax.

Crowell sixth-grade teachers Scott Cortez and April Welch invited Soiseth to the assembly.

“He is my wife’s cousin so I figured we could use him,” joked Cortez. “We were happy he came to motivate and build excitement with the students about student government. We want to our students to say ‘look what we did’ and be proud of Crowell again.”

As any good politician would do, Soiseth also fielded questions from reporters at the student paper, the Crowell Chronicles.

Real estate agency involves dealing with properties either for selling or purchasing. When a client comes to a real estate agency to sell a property, it is the estate agent's job to find a buyer. If the agent finds a buyer and closes the deal at a good price for both parties, the estate agent gets a 1% commission from both buyer and seller. This is how real estate agencies work, and estate agents earn."

  • dans on How to choose the right weight loss clinic? "A reputable weight loss clinic should preferably include counseling while being overseen by a doctor or other qualified medical expert. However, some weight-loss facilities allow clients to quickly obtain weight-loss medications and leave without providing a thorough medical history or seeking a physician's opinion. You should stay away from these types of locations because they're dangerous and probably won't result in long-term weight loss. Find a facility that focuses on the behavioral treatment or lifestyle counseling instead. They can provide you with the tools you need to make healthy decisions and advice on how to fit exercise into your daily schedule. Some of these tactics include keeping track of your meals and keeping a weekly workout log."
