The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

The Denver City Council could decide to ask voters whether to remove the requirement that police and fire officials in the city be U.S. citizens. The Finance and Governance Committee will consider a bill Tuesday sponsored by Council President Jamie Torres and council member Amanda Sandoval. In an email to the author of this article, Torres said the Denver Sheriff’s Department already has made the switch to allow non-citizens. “In 2018, the Department of Justice found that the Denver Sheriff’s department was in violation of federal law when they required all applicants to be U.S. citizens. They have since changed their policy and now allow anyone with legal status to apply.”

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska.

Sceptile is set to star in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet’s next Unrivaled Tera Raid event for a short time only. In these special seven-star Tera Raids, Sceptile has the Dragon Tera Type to resemble its Mega Evolution and power-up its devastating Dragon-type attacks. This Tera Type, however, makes it extra vulnerable to Fairy, Dragon, and Ice-type attacks. Out of those three weaknesses, Fairy seems like it should be the most beneficial for you to use since Dragon-type moves cannot touch Fairies, and Sceptile can’t learn any Poison or Steel-type attacks to hit you for super-effective damage.
