Welcome to National Apple Strudel Day!
- A strudel is a type of layered pastry with a — most often sweet — filling inside, often served with cream. It became well known and gained popularity in the 18th century through the Habsburg Empire.
- Strudel is most often associated with Austrian cuisine but is also a traditional pastry in the whole area formerly belonging to the Austro-Hungarian empire.
- The oldest Strudel recipe (a Millirahmstrudel) is from 1696, a handwritten recipe at the Viennese City Library, Wiener Stadtbibliothek. The pastry has its origins in the similar Byzantine Empire or Middle Eastern pastries.
- Strudel is a loanword in English from German. The word itself derives from the German word Strudel, which in Middle High German literally means “whirlpool” or “eddy”.
- In Hungary it is known as rétes, in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia and Serbia as štrudla or savijača, in Slovenia as štrudelj or zavitek, in the Czech Republic as závin or štrúdl, in Romania as ștrudel, and in Slovakia as štrúdľa or závin.
Embarking on an unprecedented season has SU officials thinking contingency plans (cnycentral.com; Tamurian)
The Syracuse Orange Football players started returning to campus last week for voluntary workouts.
The next step is to expand the number of players they're working with until the full training camp which could start in July if an NCAA proposal goes through.
The season opener is set for September 4 on the road at Boston College with the home opener slated for September 19th against Colgate.
All dates to remember, because the course of the coronavirus will determine if and when they'll happen---and whether we see unique situations unfold.
Make no mistake Syracuse Athletic Director John Wildhack and Syracuse Deputy Athletic Director Herm Frazier are thinking of every potential problem and a solution to every one of them.
"From the get-go, the number one priority is the health and safety of our student-athletes and our staffs. If there's a need, if we have to delay etc., that type of thing, if there's a truncated season, there's ways we can do that" said Wildhack.
Those may be the first issues and solutions that come to mind, a season that needs to be pushed back or limited in games.
But what about the feasible and potentially most havoc-wreaking scenarios?

Syracuse legend David Tyree on Clean Juice, The Catch, NFL kneeling - The Juice Online (the juice; Cheng)
Former Syracuse Orange and New York Giants star David Tyree calls in to discuss his new business venture, kneeling during the national anthem in the NFL, and his miracle helmet catch in Super Bowl 42 with Wes Cheng on The Juice on the Cuse podcast hosted by SNY.tv. TJO editor in chief Brad Bierman then calls in to chat about preseason awards for Andre Szmyt and Cisco.
SNY.tv Syracuse Podcasts · The Juice on the Cuse 6-16-20: With Syracuse/Giants legend David Tyree
Here are the highlights from the show:
Wesley Cheng: I can’t believe it, but the 2007 Super Bowl to now, it’s been 13 years since your incredible helmet catch. You’ve done so much since then. You’ve written a book called “More Than Just The Catch.” You’ve worked in the NFL front office. You’re about to start a business. But do people still stop you on the street and ask about the catch all this time later?
David Tyree: They do. And I have the ability to whisk away into the shadows. My life has seen such purpose beyond football and ‘The Catch.’ I’ve realized that ‘The Catch’ was about establishing a platform where I could serve other people. From an inspirational standpoint, that catch has meant so many things to so many different people. That’s the coolest thing about it. Now being a part of that history for the New York Giants and the NFL community, it goes so far above and beyond. It’s a privilege and an honor. It’s not something you can plan for. It’s a gift from God and I do my best to steward it. Big shout out to all the football fans, Cuse fans, Giants fans, and football fans all together to be a part of the conversation.

Cuomo on reopening malls: Will shoppers follow the rules? (PS; Tampone)
While it’s possible New York’s malls could develop good plans to reopen safely, the real question is whether people would follow the new rules, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Tuesday.
“There is a big variance between what is theoretically possible and what can actually happen in reality,” he said. “Well, we’ll have the rules and we’ll enforce the rules. Yeah, I understand that. But that’s also theoretical.”
Cuomo said the state is looking at reopening malls and understands local officials want to move faster. A group of Syracuse-area Assembly members held an event today to push for the reopening of Destiny USA.
Cuomo said he’s as eager as anyone to reopen.
“No one is more aggressive than I am,” he said. “But I’m not foolish either.”
Cuomo noted that the state’s data-based approach to reopening has been proven right. The virus has continued to decline even as businesses have restarted.
“Look at our progress,” he said. “Look at how we’re doing on reopening. We are exactly where we said we would be on the phases. The data is good.
“At one point, you can’t argue with the results.”
Malls and other nonessential businesses in New York first closed in March to help slow the spread of the coronavirus pandemic. A phased reopening began in Central New York and several other regions in May.
