Ozymandias Easter eggs and symbolism (spoilers)

Ozymandias was one of the greatest hours of television. Incredible writing, acting, directing and cinematography. It was also chock full of symbolism and Easter eggs. Some I got.....others I'm still trying to work out.
-The pants in the desert was a great nod to everyone who has been there since the start. So much has happened since then.
-The fireman playing chess after the brillant call to Skylar. Added bonus...the king is being moved.
-Walt's fetal position cry after Hank is shot mimics Gus' after his associate is shot
-Marie wearing black for the entire episode
-Todd is again wearing the green jacket Walt seems to be wearing in the flash forward
-The nod to Walt's pizza toss in the opening conversation with Skylar.
-Jack's line "there's no scenario where this guy lives"
-Walt insisting that Jack call Hank by his name
-Hank wanting to be known by his real name....not his nickname
Two I'm still trying to figure out
-The shot of two birds circling when Jesse is about to be executed (symbolic of Jesse/Walt or Jesse/Jane?)
-The stray dog crossing the street (reference to Jesse's "putting a dog down" speech in AA?)
Others?

Something small I noticed, Jack snapping his fingers to break Walt out of his trance after Hank died. He did the same thing when they were planning the prison murders.

Doesn't he say " My name is ASAC Schrader..."
ASAC as in Assistant Special Agent in Charge.

The White Supremacists are the muscle behind Walter WHITE.

I immediately thought about the Greek story of Icarus flying too close to the sun, especially since Walt and Jesse relationship has resembled a father-son relationship.
