صراع العروش - Game of Thrones‎

Reading Crown Prince Mohammed’s wiki page brings me to one of those arrested in his corruption crackdown.  Note this excerpt from his wiki page:

• Al-Waleed bin Talal bin Abdulaziz al Saud (born 7 March 1955)
•  In November 2017 Forbes listed Al-Waleed as the 45th richest man in the world, with an estimated net worth of $18 billion. 

And this in turn brings me to Forbes List of Billionair’s wiki page and to the following list of the 10 richest people in the world as of 2017:

No.NameNet worth (USD)AgeNationalitySource(s) of wealth: 

• 1 Bill Gates  (born October 28, 1955) $86.0 billion 61 United StatesMicrosoft 
• 2 Warren Buffett  (born August 30, 1930) $75.6 billion 86 United StatesBerkshire Hathaway 
• 3 Jeff Bezos (born January 12, 1964) $72.8 billion 53 United StatesAmazon.com 
• 4 Amancio Ortega (born 28 March 1936) $71.3 billion 80 SpainInditex, Zara 
• 5 Mark Zuckerberg (born May 14, 1984) $56.0 billion 32 United StatesFacebook 
• 6 Carlos Slim  (born January 28, 1940) $54.5 billion 77 MexicoAmérica Móvil, Grupo Carso  

• 7 Larry Ellison (born August 17, 1944) $52.2 billion 72 United StatesOracle Corporation 
• 8 Charles Koch (born November 1, 1935) $48.3 billion 81 United StatesKoch Industries 
• 9 David Koch (born May 3, 1940) $48.3 billion 76 United StatesKoch Industries 
• 10 Michael Bloomberg (born February 14, 1942) $47.5 billion 75 United StatesBloomberg L.P. 

And so we have a “October 28, __, __, January 28, __, March 28/28th Day, Month Sequence” pattern-cluster.  So according to the rules, single gaps are free game.  Bridging the February 28 gap using the Formula we arrive at:

• 1894 – Ben Hecht,  (February 28, 1894 – April 18, 1964) American director, producer, and screenwriter 

This isn’t the first time that April 18 has cropped up in the last couple days.  And note the following info re Forbes founder:

Malcolm Stevenson "Steve" Forbes Jr. ( born July 18, 1947) 

And so an “April 18, __, __, July 18/ 18th Day, Month Sequence” pattern-cluster.

His name, Ben Hecht translates into a cryptic “time heck/stretch”.  Note from his wiki page:

Angels Over Broadway was one of only two movies he directed, produced, and wrote originally for film, the other was Specter of the Rose (1946). Angels Over Broadway was considered "one of his most personal works

So let’s investigate Angels Over Broadway.  Note the following:

Directed by	Ben Hecht Lee Garmes (co-director)

His Co-director’s surname is an addition to the “Remove  A Letter Makes a Word/Phrase” pattern-cluster... as in remove the “r” makes “Games”.  Note from his wiki page:

Lee Garmes (May 27, 1898 – August 31, 1978) 

Hmmm, there’s the infamous 27 — not a good thing (as per the 27 club influence).  And so we have another August 31!!   Note from yesterdays post, Prince of... :

And then again, Mohamed Amin... an Arabic name jives with the Crown Prince :

Mohammad bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud (born 31 August 1985),

And so generating an “August 29, __, 31(x2)/ Date Sequence” pattern-cluster.

And so the August 30 wiki page... and a big STRETCH:

• 2014 – Prime Minister of Lesotho Tom Thabane flees to South Africa as the army allegedly stages a coup.

The name Tom caught my eye— it means “twin” in origin.  Note from his wiki page:

• Thomas Motsoahae "Tom" Thabane (born 28 May 1939)

And now note how his birthday connects with Garmes, hence generating a “May __, 27, 28, __/ Date Sequence” pattern-cluster.

And as for the “Games” communication above, this was influenced as a means of  directing us to   television series Game of Thrones .  On perusing shows wiki page re the list of names in the sidebar at right, I find one who fitz:

Theme music composer	Ramin Djawadi

• Ramin Djawadi (امین جوادی‎‎; born July 19, 1974) 

An Arabic name, and so another addition to the “Arab Theme” pattern-cluster.  And note his birthday... the same as Forbes, hence expanding the cluster:

 “April 18, __, __, July 18(x2)/ 18th Day, Month Sequence” pattern-cluster.
