[John Nolan @PBVADC_Nolan]

Not his best stuff on the mound, but he got out of trouble time and time again, and then basically said goodnight here. Just a straight dog performance when his team had to have it to win

He was not losing this game. Shades of Caden Merritt on that front

[Virginia Tech Football @HokiesFB]

We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Coach Curt Newsome.

A respected leader at Virginia Tech, James Madison, Emory & Henry & across Virginia high school football, Coach Newsome devoted his life to mentoring student-athletes & building championship programs.

We join his family, friends, former players & colleagues in remembering his life, legacy & impact.

[LOTR Universe @Lordoftheringsu]

Gandalf, whose true name is Olórin, is a Maia of the Ainur; in essence, an immortal spirit. During his battle with the Balrog in Moria, his physical body, his old man guise as an Istar, was destroyed, meaning what we call “death” for him was only the end of his physical form. His spirit was cast beyond time and space, outside the bounds of Arda.

At this point, it is not the Valar who intervene. Gandalf’s mission is not yet complete, and his sacrifice triggers a higher authority that surpasses even the Valar’s jurisdiction: Eru Ilúvatar himself. Eru calls him back from the Timeless Halls and sends him once again to Middle-earth.

For a Maia, taking physical form again requires great sacrifice and power. In this rebirth, Gandalf does not merely return; he is restored with even greater strength and elevated to leadership among the Istari. Taking the place of the fallen Saruman, he becomes Gandalf the White, now endowed with higher authority to complete his task.

His spirit is returned naked to the peak of Zirakzigil, where he is reborn anew. He is then found and rescued by Gwaihir the Eagle and carried to Lothlórien, where he is fully healed. This transformation marks him as no longer just a guide, but one of the direct instruments of divine will in the war against Sauron.
