Man appears in court over gangland salon fire after locals flee from torched building
Jordan Steele, 38, appeared in court charged with firearm offences after a beauty salon was torched in the gangland war. A man has appeared in court after a beauty salon was torched in a gangland f eud causing locals to have to flee their homes. Belle Cheveux, on Albert Street in Leith, burst into flames during the early hours of Thursday, March 6. It was one of the first targets in the gangland war that has been raging across Scotland in recent months. Jordan Steele, 38, of Edinburgh, appeared at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Monday, July 21, in connection with the incident. He was charged with firearms offences, including possessing a firearm without authorisation. Steele made no plea and was granted bail. His next appearance has not yet been confirmed. Another man has previously appeared in court also in connection with the incident in June. Owen Logan, 26, was arrested in a police raid as part of Police Scotland's Operation Portaledge investigation. Logan made no plea to a single charge of wilful fire-raising and was remanded in custody. A number of incidents have since taken place in Glasgow, Edinburgh and surrounding areas in recent months, with private homes and business premises targeted. Dubai based Mr Big, Ross McGill, has been waging war on Mark Richardson's mob and the Daniel clan since March after he was ripped off in a £500,000 cocaine deal when the buyer used fake bank notes. In the most serious of incidents, there was an attempted murder of one of Richardson's top associates. David McMillan, 54, was allegedly attacked with machetes outside his house on Pitcairn Grove in Edinburgh on Thursday, May 22. Three more arrests were made by cops probing a gangland war over the weekend, bringing the total number of Operation Portaledge arrests to 55. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

On The Up: Oldest living All Black Brian Steele, 96, shares secret to longevity
He only got his chance to appear in the All Black trials because Wellington's first-choice halfback Vince Bevan was forced out with injuries. Steele's trial saw him play three games in Wellington and Palmerston North. He said it was a hard trial because everyone he was playing was so good. 'I enjoyed it and I was lucky to get through,' he said. The All Blacks team headed to Sydney from Evans Bay in Wellington on a Tasman Empire Airways Limited (TEAL) flying boat, a flight that would take eight hours. It was the ideal duration for Steele and the team's other newbies to get their heads around actions and words for the haka. Steele said he wouldn't be able to perform it today as he doesn't remember the words. Playing in every game and test of the tour, Steele's speed, ball handling, and smarts helped the All Blacks win every game and take the Bledisloe Cup back from the Wallabies after losing it to them in 1949. Oldest living All Black, Brian Steele, takes on the Wallabies on the 1951 All Blacks tour of Australia. Although Steele wasn't able to get a try in the series, he did manage a dropped goal against a Combined XV in Wagga Wagga and a conversion when he and legendary winger Ron Jarden swapped their regular positions, with Steele typically being the one to hold the ball as Jarden kicked. 'That was the style of the time, and the balls were heavy because they were made of leather,' Steele said. Despite a strong showing in the team at a young age, Steele never played for the All Blacks again, nor did he receive another trial. But Steele is happy his record with the All Blacks will forever remain a 100% win rate. Oldest living All Black Brian Steele's portrait from the 1951 All Blacks tour of Australia. Outside of rugby, Steele was a carpenter on high-rise buildings in Wellington until the city's miserable weather motivated him to relocate to Havelock North in 1968 with his wife and five children. After rugby, Steele became a mountain climber and marathon runner, completing 25 marathons around the world. 'You've got to keep fit, or you'll lose it all,' he said of his motivation. He also became a big supporter of charity through his work with Telethon, the 24-hour live television spectacular raising funds for charitable causes in the country that ran through the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Steele's charity work on the shows saw him live in a caravan atop scaffolding at the Write Price supermarket at the site of Hastings Pak'nSave. He also lived in a six-foot by four-foot (1.82m x 1.21m) hut atop a pole for a week, with people dropping food and donations into a bucket attached to a rope. Steele said he remembered having to send down excrement in a separate bucket. As Christian Cullen's great-uncle, Steele said he never had any advice to give the Paekākāriki Express, because 'he was that good'. Today, Steele lives a happy life at a rest home in Havelock North and is a proud grandfather to 11 and great-grandfather to three. He still watches the rugby and cheers on his old team, but he doesn't enjoy watching it on TV as much as he would at the stadium. 'On the TV, the camera goes right in and when we go to the game, we sit in the stadium and we get to watch the full picture,' he said. At 96, Steele is just four years away from becoming the second ever All Black to hit 100, and he's sure he can make it. 'Come back and see me in 2029,' he said with a laugh.

ESPN reporter Michele Steele announces her exit after 14 years: ‘Turning the page'
Michele Steele and ESPN are parting ways. Steele has been a frequent face for the network since 2011, but she announced Thursday that she is in her final two weeks with ESPN. 'I'm turning the page,' Steele posted to her X. 'After a 14-year journey at ESPN, spanning assignments in Bristol, Boston, and Chicago, this chapter as a bureau reporter concludes on Aug. 1.' Steele joined ESPN after being an anchor for Bloomberg Television and the network's first full-time sports reporter. 3 Michele Steele spent 14 years at ESPN. X / @MicheleSteele In her 14 years, she has made appearances for 'SportsCenter,' 'NFL Live,' 'Outside the Lines' and ESPN's digital platforms across the numerous cities that she mentioned in her farewell message. 'My Day 1 assignment in the Boston bureau was the day Aaron Hernandez was arrested – fulfilling my dad's prophecy that you really will be surprised what you wind up doing in life,' Steele wrote. 'Great times with great people covering Monday Night Football on SportsCenter, the women's hoops juggernaut, the National Spelling Bee and the Warrior Games, which I loved so much because of my family's military connection. Along the way, there was a heavy dose of SportsCenter anchoring and a little podcasting, too.' While it's unclear what has led to the split, the 46-year-old had kind words for the network. 3 Michele Steele announced she is leaving ESPN. X / @MicheleSteele 'ESPN has some of the best storytellers, producers and editors around,' she wrote. 'I'm thankful to have learned so much.' It's unclear what's next for Steele in her career. 'Recently, I shared advice on a friend's podcast for those entering the industry: 'walk through open doors.' Don't be too rigid about your career, open yourself to possibilities,' Steele continued. 'It's that approach that got me from reporting on Wall Street to the anchor chair in Bristol and front and center at championship games. Now, I'm taking my own advice.' Steele is a member of the Asian American Journalists Association (AAJA), where she is president of the association's sports task force. 3 Michele Steele said she will be done on Aug. 1. X / @MicheleSteele 'Up next: Looking forward to building and growing…if you're at AAJA in Seattle this month, let's connect… watch this space,' she concluded her message.

Eggs: The Magical Snack for Your Brain Health - Jordan News
Eggs: The Magical Snack for Your Brain Health Your brain doesn't just keep your heart beating and your lungs breathing; as the control center of your body, it allows you to move, feel, and think. Therefore, eating certain foods can help keep your brain in its best condition. Dr. Clint Steele, a prominent American neurologist, revealed the top snack that makes a significant difference for brain health: eggs. اضافة اعلان According to Dr. Steele, eggs are a simple food rich in essential nutrients, including protein and vitamins, offering a range of cognitive benefits. How do eggs boost brain health? Boiled eggs are a rich source of many nutritional benefits that help improve brain functions. Experts say eggs are rich in the amino acid tyrosine, known for its ability to increase focus and attention, reduce stress levels, and improve cognitive functions—especially for those suffering from stress and anxiety. Dr. Steele confirmed that this simple snack improves mood, and studies indicate that eating eggs reduces the risk of depressive symptoms in the elderly. Eggs are also rich in vitamins B6 and B12, both of which lower the risk of dementia, heart disease, and cancer. Studies show that B vitamins are linked to slowing mental decline in patients with mild cognitive impairment. Choline found in eggs is a nutrient converted into acetylcholine in the brain, a neurotransmitter that helps brain cells communicate with each other. Various studies show it is associated with improved memory and mental health functions. According to Dr. Steele, egg yolks are the best source of choline, as they are among the most concentrated sources of this nutrient. Folate is also important for the nervous system, affecting mood and cognitive functions, especially in older adults. Researchers confirmed that folate deficiency in the elderly increases the risk of Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia. Is cholesterol a concern? For years, eggs had a bad reputation for their high cholesterol content. However, despite this outdated and misunderstood reputation, cholesterol plays a vital role in brain health, and experts believe it is necessary for proper brain functions. Along with eggs, seafood also contains high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, known as 'good' cholesterol, which is the healthiest type. How many eggs should you eat daily? Scientists and nutrition experts agree on moderation in everything. Researchers say eating one or two eggs per day is sufficient, but the quantity should be spread throughout the week. You can definitely have two eggs for breakfast but only two or three times a week. Times Now
