Muhammad’s World Oceans Day

Note the following info regarding 2 notable persons recently added to the Deaths in 2017 site:

• Loïc Bouvard (20 January 1929  – 27 November 2017)
• Dermot Drummy (16 January 1961 – 27 November 2017) 

Their birthdays are additions to a cluster found in yesterdays posts, expanding it into a:

•  “January 15(x2), 16, 17, __, 19, 20, 21, __, 23, 24, 25/ Date Sequence” pattern-cluster.   

The gap I’ll bridge is January 18.  Using the formula, we arrive at:

• 2000 – Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky (January 23, 1897 – January 18, 2000) architect 
• 2003 – Edward Farhat (June 9, 1924 – January 18, 2003) wrestler and trainer 

Of the two, Edward stands out given the cryptic “far hat” found in his surname— an addition to the recent “Hat Theme” pattern-cluster, note the title of yesterdays post:  Macaroni Hat.  From what I’ve read about him, he’s a despicable person... putting that aside, note this excerpt:

•  best known by his ring name The Sheik     

It’s just that Sheik’s generally wear a “hat”— turban.
And as for his birthday, note the following from yesterdays post, Horse and Riddle:

• By Leslie Potter | June 5, 2017
• Robert B. Radnitz (August 9, 1924 — June 6, 2010)Producer
• The birthday of Robert Radnitz falls on the 222nd day of the year, and his date of death is an addition to the “Off By One” pattern-cluster... as in one off from Trish MacGregor’s birthday — key player/antagonist (along with husband Rob and daughter Megan ) in the Starr Family Production.  

And so we now have a “June 5, 6, 7,__, 9/Date Sequence” pattern-cluster.  Bridging the June 8 gap ... and stretching outside the box, we arrive at:

• 632 – Muhammad, the central figure of Islam, widely regarded as its founder
• World Oceans Day

It’s interesting— my surname is Ocean.  And so the cluster expands:

• “June 5, 6, 7, 8(x2), 9/Date Sequence” pattern-cluster.

Back to Edward Farhat, note from his wiki page:

•  His first manager was Abdullah Farouk 

Hmmm, an Arabic name.  Note from his wiki page:

• Irwin J. Roth (June 7, 1929 – October 12, 1983)

He’s not Arabic at all.  His birthday adds to the cluster:

• June 5, 6, 7(x2), 8(x2), 9/Date Sequence” pattern-cluster

Note this next excerpt from his wiki page:

 known by the ring names The Grand Wizard of Wrestling and Abdullah Farouk, was an American professional wrestling manager. Not a wrestler himself due to his small stature, he was noted for his flamboyant outfit of sequined jackets, wraparound sunglasses, and a brightly colored turban decorated with jewels and feathers.^[3] He was inducted into the WWE's Hall of Fame in 1995.

Ernie Roth

You can say he was a true Dandy wearing a Macaroni hat!!

There is another thing to consider with the word “hat”— it’s an addition to the recent “Add a Letter Makes a Word” pattern-cluster... That gives us hate/shat/chat/that .  Entering “shat” into the etymology dictionary brings up what I thought it would— shit, ... and :

The original word for "chess" is Sanskrit chaturanga "four members of an army" -- elephants, horses, chariots, foot soldiers. This is preserved in Spanish ajedrez, from Arabic (al) shat-ranj, from Persian chatrang, from the Sanskrit word.

The “big hats” remind me of an earlier post ... and image,

Note from Burney’s Wiki page:

• Frances Burney (13 June 1752 – 6 January 1840),

My birthday is June 13!!  And her birthday is also an addition to a cluster found in my previous post, expanding it into a:

•  “January 13, __, March 13, April 13, __, June 13(x4), July 13, __, __, October 13, __, December 13/ 13th Day, Month Sequence” pattern
