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.

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. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

He's currently rated the No. 73 prospect nationally in the 247Sports Composite and will go down as one of the most dominant defensive players in Mater Dei's storied history.

Kelsie Maureen Clutter didn’t have to die. “​​Just one phone call could have saved her life,” said her friend, Danika Stone. Clutter started getting sick a lot around age 18 after graduating high school, Stone said. At the time, she thought of it as a recurring cold, but in retrospect, it was more likely withdrawal from opioids.

I've always felt the National Football Foundation-College Football Hall of Fame was a little sketchy. That has come up in recent days with the reveal of the ballot for the upcoming Hall of Fame. In the coach category, it was no surprise that Nick Saban made it (over 70 and retired made him eligible just months after that surprise retirement announcement), as did Urban Meyer (qualified by having been retired three years). The big omission, an emotional one for many, is that Mike Leach, the colorful and innovative "Pirate" who head coached 21 years at Texas Tech, Washington State, and Mississippi State, and who died unexpectedly at age 61 in 2022, is not eligible.

WyoFile has acquired a photograph of a lynx in Wyoming, a landmark observation of a species currently considered absent from the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Star Valley resident Jason Reinhardt, an avid houndsman , came across the animal while mountain lion hunting the southern Gros Ventre Range in February 2022. There was no doubt in his mind what it was: a tom lynx, judging by its blocky head.

Minnesota's had success recruiting Georgia defensive backs on head coach PJ Fleck. Terell Smith turned into an NFL Draft selection, Darius Green started at safety for the Gophers last season, and now this staff is looking to keep that rolling with Zachry Harden, who became the first commitment of the Gophers' 2025 recruiting class back in late March. Harden had a great offer list when he committed with offers from places like Texas A&M, Michigan State, Ole Miss and Arkansas.
