Alexandra Bastedo RIIP : The Golden Fleece

The Deaths in 2014 site lists under January 12th:

Alexandra Bastedo, 67, British actress (The Champions) and animal welfare advocate, cancer 

Two things stand out, first of all there's her surname, which is an addition to the "Cryptic Phrases in Names" pattern-cluster re: "Baste do".  So let's look at the etymology:

• baste (v.3) "beat, thrash," 1530s, perhaps from the cookery sense of baste (v.2)...
• baste (v.1) "sew together loosely," c.1400, from Old French bastir "build, construct, sew up (a garment), baste, make, prepare, arrange" (12c., Modern French bâtir "to build"), probably from a Germanic source, from Proto-Germanic *bastjan "join together with bast" (cf. Old High German besten; see bast : "inner bark of the linden tree," Old).
• baste (v.2)"to soak in gravy, moisten," late 14c., of unknown origin, possibly from Old French basser "to moisten, soak," from bassin "basin"(see basin). 

The second etymology re: build, certainly follows the "Building/Construction" pattern-cluster theme of things. The second thing that stood out is that Alexandra was an animal welfare advocate... due to the "Animal" pattern-cluster theme as of late ie: "champion/famous" dogs, pigs and horses.  Note this excerpt from her wiki page:

In 1991, she appeared in a notable production of the psychological thriller Dangerous Obsession by N. J. Crisp, opposite Marc Sinden and John Challis, at the Mill at Sonning.

What stands out in the above is "N.J. Crisp", due to his name which is an addition to the "Cryptic Phrases in Names" pattern-cluster... as in "Cold and Crisp"... which is an addition to the "Winter/Glacier/Ice/Big Snow/Cold/Crisp" pattern-cluster

Norman James Crisp (11 December 1923, Southampton - 14 June 2005)
In the sixties after writing some single dramas, Crisp moved to writing for serials and turned out many scripts for many BBC series including Compact, R3, Dixon of Dock Green, Dr Finlay's Casebook, Colditz and Secret Army.

His day of death is an addition to the "Off By One" pattern-cluster... as in one off from my birthday of June 13.   As well, the tv series "Colditz"  is an addition to the "cryptic phrases in name" pattern-cluster re "Cold it's".  Many posts, some recent have made reference to the next Glacial episode, so this is an addition to the "Winter/Glacier/Ice/Big Snow/Cold/Crisp" pattern-cluster
Note the following from the wiki page of the film Colditz Castle:

The series deals with Allied prisoners of war imprisoned at the supposedly escape-proof Colditz Castle 

When checking out the "real" Colditz Castle's wiki page, the following excerpts stood out:

 In 1694, its then-current holder, Augustus the Strong, began to expand it, resulting in a second courtyard and a total of 700 rooms.

When the Nazis came to power in 1933, they turned the castle into a political prison for communists, homosexuals, Jews and other undesirables. Starting in 1939,^[1] allied prisoners were housed there.

Note the following from Augustus the Strong's wiki page:

Frederick Augustus I or Augustus II the Strong (German: August II der Starke; Polish: August II Mocny; Lithuanian: Augustas II; 12 May 1670 – 1 February 1733)  

In order to be elected King of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, Augustus converted to Roman Catholicism. He owed allegiance to the Imperial Habsburgs as a member of the Order of the Golden Fleece.

In the first excerpt, note his day of death:

February 1 -is the 32nd day of the year in the Gregorian calendar. There are 333 days remaining until the end of the year (334 in leap years).

He died on the day of the year when 333 days remain, hence an addition to the "333/Identical Number Sequence" pattern-cluster.

As to the Order of the "Golden Fleece"... we have another champion animal... albeit a dead one... or maybe nott... maybe it's a symbol!!  Note the following from the golden fleece wiki page:

 The fleece is a symbol of authority and kingship. 

 The Living members of the Order of the Golden Fleece that stand out from among the twin numbers are:  #11 (Spanish Order) and #22 (Austrian Order)

11.  Albert II (born 6 June 1934)

I don't usually mention a significant date unless it comes up a number of times or it's THAT significant, like 9/11.  As for the birthday of Albert II, June 6th, D-Day,  came up not that long ago in my January 7th post re K.P. Udayabhanu RIIP: Ewe-Day on D-Day.
 Note the following from the June 6 wiki page re http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/June_6:

• 1944  – World War II: the Battle of Normandy begins. D-Day, code named Operation Overlord, commences with the landing of 155,000 Allied troops on the beaches of Normandy inFrance. The allied soldiers quickly break through the Atlantic Wall and push inland in the largest amphibious military operation in history.

The "Operation Overlord" has that inner twin feel.  I get the sense that they're making a comparison with this event and the war they are waging against our world as we sit.  Note this next excerpt from Albert II wiki page:

Reign	9 August 1993 – 21 July 2013

Note the following info regarding his birthday:

August 9 -is the 221st day of the year (222nd in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. There are 144 days remaining until the end of the year.

This is an addition to the "Off By One" pattern-cluster... as in one off from the 222nd day of the year, a particular inner twin trade mark signature being multiples of 2's occurring in sequence.

Note as listed under the Austrian Order of the Golden Fleece

22.The Prince of Liechtenstein (1961) 

Hans-Adam II (Johannes (Hans) Adam Ferdinand Alois Josef Maria Marko d'Aviano Pius von und zu Liechtenstein; born 14 February 1945), is the reigning Prince of Liechtenstein.

Okay, so we have the date of February 14 cropping up once again... Valentines day!!
