National-Oreo-Day_pixabay_2201853_1280-790x400.jpg

Welcome to National Eat an Oreo Day!

Today we eat the best-selling cookie in the United States, the Oreo. It can be eaten plain but is often paired with milk. It can be used to make cakes, milkshakes, other desserts, and can even be deep fried. Made up of two chocolate disks and white cream filling, the original name for the cookie was the "Oreo Biscuit." It looked similar to today's Oreo, although over time there have been small changes to both the chocolate disks and the cream. The cream used today was created by Sam Procello, who was Nabisco's "principal scientist," known as "Mr. Oreo." The current design of the cookie has been in place since 1952. Oreos were created by Nabisco and first sold on March 6, 1912, by grocer S.C. Thuesen in Hoboken, New Jersey. Nabisco applied for a trademark on March 14, 1912, and received it on August 12, 1913.

What to expect from Frank Howard next season (Syracuse basketball player forecasts) (PS; Waters)

Syracuse guard Frank Howard became a full-time starter for the first time in his career last season.
The 6-foot-5 junior carried a heavy load. He played big minutes, averaging 38.4 per game. As the Orange's point guard, he had the ball in his hands a lot. He doled out 175 assists. He scored at a 14.4 points per game clip. He was one of the few scoring options on a team that struggled to score, which made his job at the point guard all the more difficult.
Howard struggled at times. He committed a few too many turnovers.
But as the most veteran player on the team and the point guard, he was the Orange's leader on the court and in the locker room. He did well in that role.
His play in the NCAA Tournament was a big reason for Syracuse's surprising run to the Sweet 16.

2017-18 statistics
Howard put up some interesting numbers in 2017-18.
He started all 37 games, logging a whopping 38.4 minutes per game. That would have set a new school record except that Tyus Battle also broke Billy Owens' old school record (38 mpg) by playing 39 minutes per game last season.
Howard scored 14.4 points per game despite making just 37.6 percent of his shots. His 3-point percentage was at 32.7. He did hit 72 percent of his free throws, which was a significant improvement over his first two years.
Howard dished out 4.7 assists per game, totaling 175 assists against 126 turnovers.

Perfect vision: UNC basketball lands first 2020 commit — forward Day'Ron Sharpe - ACCSports.com (accsports.com; Geisinger)

North Carolina basketball gets on the board early in 2020 recruiting with an in-state commitment from Day’Ron Sharpe. A product of Winterville, North Carolina, Sharpe’s a 6-foot-8 power forward that projects into a high-level recruit. Sharpe committed to UNC on Sunday evening — after his second visit to the campus in Chapel Hill.

According to 247 Sports, Shape picked UNC over offers from Florida, NC State, Georgetown and Virginia. His recruitment was led by both Steve Robinson and Roy Williams. The Tar Heels initially offered Sharpe less than two months ago — at the end of April.

Cor case: Plans for Syracuse's $90M factory crafted over drinks in Manhattan (PS; McMahon)


A $90 million-plus factory outside of Syracuse was crafted over drinks in Manhattan between the facility's eventual builder, NY's "nano czar," a top governor's economic development aide and a felonious lobbyist.

That's what witness and former governor's aide Andrew Kennedy testified to in the first day of a corruption trial which began today in Manhattan.

The builder, Steven Aiello of Cor Development, is standing trial with business partner Joseph Gerardi, former SUNY Polytechnic President and nanoscientist Alain Kaloyeros, and Buffalo developer Louis Ciminelli.

After court was over for the day, Aiello's lawyer disputed Kennedy's testimony on the Soraa factory. The meeting described by Kennedy was "pure fiction," attorney Stephen Coffey said.

"Steve [Aiello] had nothing to do with it," Coffey said, referencing the plan to build the factory outside of Syracuse.
