The Deaths in 2013 site lists under June 29th:
Margherita Hack, 91, Italian astrophysicist and popular science writer, suspected heart failureThere's two things that stand out, with the 1st being her first name, Margherita... which my name "May" is a diminutive of. The second thing that stands out is her surname "Hack", which to me sounds like "Hag"... especially meaningful because of a mention in my previous post of Dan Brown's Chapter 88 in his book, Inferno... given that the 8th wonder referred to is the "Hagia Sophia" which means "Holy Wisdom". Note the following etymology:
haggle (v.) 1570s, "to cut unevenly" (implied in haggler), frequentative of haggen "to chop" (see hack (v.1)
hag (n.) early 13c., "ugly old woman," probably a shortening of Old English hægtesse "witch, fury" (on assumption that -tesse was a suffix), from Proto-Germanic*hagatusjon-, of unknown origin. Similar shortening produced Dutch heks, German Hexe "witch"Note the following from Margherita's wiki page:
Margherita Hack, Dame Grand Cross OMRI (Italian: [marɡeˈriːta ak]; 12 June 1922 – 29 June 2013) was an Italian astrophysicist and popular science writer. The asteroid 8558 Hack, discovered in 1995, was named in her honorShe celebrates her birthday one day before mine... hence falling into the "Off By One" pattern-cluster. And the year in which she was born re twin '22, happens to bee a particular inner twin trademark signature. The asteroid number re 8558 is interesting, when divided in two 85 and 58 they are reversed from one another... another inner twin trademark signature, falling into the "Opposites" pattern-cluster.
