five leaf clover
An anonymous visitor to the site emailed me: “I found a 5 leaf clover… do you know anything about it? Is it good luck or bad luck?”
It’s just a mutation, like the four-leaf clover, of course. The four-leaf mutation is quite rare occurring once in about 10,000 specimens. Five is rarer still. But, according to this site: Five-leaf Clovers bring extra good luck and attracts money.
Nice, I wonder why the banks don’t breed these things and hand them out to their managers.
Of course, there is no such thing as “luck” and no number of leaves on a member of the more than 300-strong species of plants in the pea family Fabaceae is going to change that. Clover (Trifolium), or trefoil, usually means three-leafed, hence the surprise when one finds a specimen with four, five or more leaflets. The world record clover is an uber clover with 21 leaflets, although the Guinness record site says 18. Wikipedia, in traditional character has both figures on two different pages. Intriguingly, both the 18 and 21 leaflet specimens were found/grown by Shigeo Obara, a farmer in Japan’s Iwate prefecture.
Clover is found across the globe, most species are found in the temperate parts of the Northern Hemisphere, but many also occur in South America and Africa, particularly at high altitudes in the tropics. Clovers are small annual, biennial, and short-lived perennial herbaceous plants. To “be in clover” means to be living a carefree life of ease, comfort, and prosperity. But, if you’re due for a drug test make sure you haven’t been drinking milk from cows fed on clover. Clover has a small amount of morphine, which can end up in bottled milk. Eating clover itself can trigger blood and urine drug tests. It’s one more excuse for unlucky athletes caught abusing the system.
So, what is the origin of the notion that four-leafed clovers are lucky? According to legend, each leaf, or rather leaflet, represents something: hope, faith, love, and the fourth luck. It presumably has some association with the Irish “Shamrock”, which Saint Patrick used as a metaphor for the Holy Trinity of the Catholic fate. the Shamrock having four leaflets forming a single leaf by definition – God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Such metaphors are not uncommon in other religions where multifaceted deities are represented this way.
But, the Shamrock metaphor doesn’t explain the luck associated with the fourth leaflet the Shamrock metaphor doesn’t explain the luck associated with the fourth leaflet, if anything one would imagine that a fourth leaflet would represent the Devil and so be bad luck. Although some say it is meant to represent God’s grace. According to the Wisegeek site, when Adam and Eve left the Garden of Eden, Eve is supposed to have carried a four leaf clover. “Curiously, the lore of the white clover plant is also associated with repelling snakes, though it didn’t seem to work in the Garden of Eden,” the site says. I suspect the snake-repellant aspect comes from the Irish St Patrick legend. Ireland famously has no snakes.
One important aspect of the four-leaf clover myth is that for it to bring luck you must find it serendipitously, there’s no point in searching for one and certainly no point in buying one; several websites offer for sale hand-picked four-leaf clovers! However, if you were a child in the Middle Ages who found a four-leaf clover you would have been given the gift of being able to see fairies and plant sprites…
It’s all superstitious nonsense, steeped in the mythology of religion, in dark times there is a deep-rooted (pardon the pun) psychological need to cling to such ideas of a better life beyond the grave and the idea of good luck associated with a symbolic plant simply reinforces such notions and reminds us of the deep-seated need in many people to postpone thoughts of their own mortality. Whoops…got all heavy there. Apologies. It seems that searching for four-leaf and beyond clovers is a perennial favourite among children and if it gets them out in to their gardens or the countryside on a long hike to search for the biggest then that’s no bad thing. Indeed, the exercise and fresh air will no doubt bring them luck by helping to stave off obesity and type 2 diabetes. Just don’t let them pick any dandelions…it’ll make them wet the bed, you know?

That clover now is taped to the lottery ticket machine, and he makes sure to wipe each customer’s ticket over it before making the sale.

Getting married has long been known as one of life’s most emotionally stressful events. Not only is it a huge and life changing commitment, the logistics of planning a wedding have become so complex that it is almost a full time job organising one.
There are numerous rules, traditions and etiquettes to follow involving dresses, venues, flowers, food and not least Wedding presents. Not only is there the list of wedding gifts that the bride and groom would like to receive themselves, there are presents for mothers, bridesmaids, the best man and any other person involved in the ceremony. Add to that favours for guests and the list becomes huge.
No surprise then that the bride and groom may often not consider their own exchange of Wedding gifts – most often in the groom’s case!! Men are well known for being bad at choosing gifts, regardless of the occasion or the recipient. Wedding gifts are of course immensely important to the bride and the groom should always bear this in mind.
A groom may give his bride a gift for their wedding day for various reasons but it is by and large a way to thank her for arranging the special day and for the wonderful gift of love and marriage. Sometimes the first gift can begin a tradition or theme for forthcoming anniversary presents but even the simplest gifts can be an intimate expression of love and appreciation, the perfect sentiments for a wedding day.
By keeping in mind the three ‘Ps’, which are “Poignant, Personal and Permanent”, an excellent choice can be made. Poignant or thoughtful gifts will show appreciation for the bride and reflect the things he loves about her. Personal gifts can be literally personalised with her name or can be something she particularly likes, such as a special (ideally wedding related) edition of a collectible. Permanent reflects gifts which can be kept forever and therefore emphasise the permanency of the marriage.
Whilst a string of white pearls, given to the bride on the morning of the wedding is the original tradition, in modern times there are many quaint, thoughtful and memorable wedding presents available which may cost much less and have much more lasting appeal. If money is tight, a hand written love letter or a CD of the bride’s favourite tunes can be as special as a very expensive piece of jewellery but if money is no object there is no end to the possibilities.
Breaking types of wedding presents down further into categories such as romantic, practical, sentimental or frivolous/funny can also help with the choice. A romantic gift could simply be a book of love poetry or perhaps a completely personalised gift book entirely dedicated to the bride and filled with images of her, each with a hand written love quote.
Some brides may prefer practical Wedding presents, perhaps appropriate to the honeymoon destination. This could be anything useful such as designer clothing, beach wear, ski wear or specific sports equipment. Equally practical would be items such as photo frames, either personalised or digital or an unusual ‘keepsake’ box for safe storage of all the bride’s mementos of the special day.
Sentimental gifts are often pieces of jewellery which can be added to over the years. A charm bracelet is a popular choice and is often purchased with its first three charms a star (representing dreams for the future), a four leaf clover (for luck) and a heart (representing love). Other ideas could include naming a star, a paperweight with a personal message inside or even a solid silver ‘Last Rolo’ pendant or ornament.
A frivolous or funny gift should only be chosen if the bride has the right sense of humour to see it for what it is. Causing disappointment or even offense to the bride or possibly even her family is definitely not a good idea. It could be something as small and simple as sexy underwear or as big as an erotic painting or sculpture.
Equally important to the choice of gift is how and when to present it to the bride. There are no specific guidelines and it is entirely up to the groom to decide. To a great extent this will be dependent upon what the gift is of course. It would not be practical to hand over exotic lingerie at the wedding reception for example! For many grooms, however, the ideal time is when a quiet moment can be found to be in private with the bride, because this gift is considered to represent a very personal expression of love and a new life together.

Bowel problems are nature’s warning for serious health problems. The colon is the route to expel toxins. When it does not work effectively, toxins accumulate which results in various health disorders. When all the food that we consume does not get excreted, the remnants of it stick to the walls of the colon and gradually become toxic.
SYMPTOMS
Symptoms of this condition can include mental confusion, depression, irritability, fatigue, gastrointestinal irregularities, and even allergic reactions such as hives, sneezing, and coughing. Many intuitionalists and researches believe that this toxicity can eventually lead to more serious disorders.
Colon cleansing can rid the colon of debris, and help prevent and treat a variety of health problems. The colon extracts moisture from digested food before it is excreted during a trip to the bathroom.
One of the most common reasons for a colon cleanse is to improve functionality, as well as ease the symptoms or prevent constipation.
HERBAL AYURVEDA DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS
Herbal supplements made from pure organically cultivated herbs which are very useful in colon cleansing without nay side effects..
HOME REMEDIES
Aloe vera, calendula, and peppermint help to restore the acid/alkaline balance of the colon and promote healing.
Burdock, Echinacea, horsetail, and licorice have detoxifying properties. Licorice also supports the organs.
Barberry, butternut bark, cascara sagrada (a natural laxative made from the bark of rhamnus purshiana), flaxseed, red raspberry, rhubarb, and senna can be used to flush the colon and release waste.
Grind aloe leaf, fennel, garlic, ginger and cayenne pepper together and consume this to kill harmful bacteria growing inside the colon and to prevent gas formation.
Use a wheat grass, fresh lemon juice, garlic, or coffee enema. If the bowel problems or related symptoms are chronic, repeat.
Spinach contains organic nutrients that are known to cleanse and repair even the most severely constipated intestinal tracts. It can be used raw in salads or about 100 ml of its juice added to an equal quantity of water can be taken twice a day to cleanse the colon.
An effective way of cleansing colon is drinking two glasses of warm water with two pinches of salt added to it every morning on an empty stomach.
Boneset, elecampane, fenugreek, lobelia, and yarrow loosen and flush mucus from the intestines.
Burdock root, milk thistle, and red clover cleanse the blood and support the liver.
Fennel restores the acid/alkaline balance of the colon, promotes healing, flushes the colon, and releases waste.
To get your insides moving and active, implement a daily exercise routine, such as aerobics, walking the dog, biking, swimming, or using indoor equipment.
Drink at least 8-10 glasses of water daily.
Fasting is a good method for colon cleansing. Fasting helps other organs such as the liver and the kidneys to eliminate toxins from the body. It also
provides rest to your system. During fasting you can drink fresh fruit or vegetable juices.

Tea is known worldwide because of the wondrous health benefits it provides. Tea has been used in different countries starting from the ancient world. Some of these countries include Japan, China and India and Korea. It has six varieties namely white, yellow, green, oolong, black and pu-erh. Amongst all of them, it is the green tea which is most popular in the market. Green tea is believed to regulate body temperature and blood sugar, promote digestion and improve mental processes. But recently, it is also associated with fertility.
Chinese fertility herbs and a proper diet can help your body regulate the delicate balance of estrogen and progesterone that is vital to conception. Recent clinical studies have proven that chasteberry, one of the most widely used Chinese fertility herbs, is effective in women with progesterone deficiency. Because fat cells produce estrogen, a diet which helps you attain a healthy weight is an essential complement to the use of Chinese fertility herbs. It will improve your energy levels and immunity too.
Many different fertility problems can influence the chances of getting pregnant, and these include both, those that can be controlled by human behavior and habits and those that cannot. The biggest problem that couples face is trying to figure out the underlying cause of their infertility. Fertility problems can be divided into lifestyle or health problems.
Ovulation herbs include Red Clover Flower, False Unicorn Root, Kelp, Nettle Leaves, Red Raspberry Leaves, Black Cohosh, Don Quai Root, Wild Yams, Pumbpkin Seeds, Saw Palmetto Berry, Sarsarparilla Root, Ginseng and Bee Pollen. These ovulation herbs are added to supplements to enhance and maintain a healthy reproductive system both for the woman and the man. It is often advised not to take self-medication based on your own knowledge of the possible effects of these ovulation herbs because of the other risks it may involve. It is still best to consult a health care practitioner who specializes on fertility drugs before consumption of any ovulation herb.
Another helpful fertility tool is ovulation tracking. This method is used by people in many countries, including the Chinese, for generations. By tracking what days of the month a woman is menstruating, it is easier to determine which days she is ovulating. By knowing her most fertile days, the womans chances of obtaining a pregnancy increase.
Vitamins to conceive are combined in one treatment called “Mother’s Hope Natural Fertility System”. Chasteberry is used to get hormones to a normal level. Red raspberry leaf prevents miscarriage. This system also has vitamin c, selenium, and zinc. All these combined help increase ovulation and helps hormone secretion.

The Monarch Butterflies are through the Nymphalidae family members of butterflies. Theyre one particular from the greatest butterflies and are very commonly found due to which it will get the name Monarch. These butterflies are simply acknowledged through the orange and black patterned wings. Its wingspan ranges from 8.nine to 10.two cms. And just therefore you know the male monarch butterflies are greater in dimension than the feminine monarchs.
Lifestyle Cycle
The Monarch Butterflies goes via 4 stages during one particular lifestyle cycle
Egg The eggs are laid on milkweed plants in March and April spring and summer time breeding months.
Larvae The egg is hatched in four days forming the larvae referred to as caterpillars. The caterpillar eats the egg scenario as well as the milkweed plant. In the course of this stage the monarchs store fat and vitamins in the form of power to carry them towards the next stage. This stage lasts for about two weeks.
Pupa In this stage the fully grown caterpillar attaches by itself on a twig leaf etc and spins a silk pad close to it. It will get wrapped close to within a cocoon known as the pupa or chrysalis. It then hangs from this pad with all the help with the final pair of its prolegs. Hormonal changes happen throughout this stage and this process is known as metamorphosis. The pupa turns into transparent each day just before and emerges revealing its orange and black wings.
Adult butterfly The mature butterfly emerges and hangs through the split pupa till its wings are dry. Throughout this time fluids are pumped in to the wings to produce it complete and stiff. Lastly the Monarch Butterflies spreads its wings and flies absent. It then will get its nourishment by feeding on selection of flowers which consists of milkweed flowers goldenrod and red clover.
Migration
The Monarch butterflies cant survive winters which is prevalent all through The us. As a result throughout the winter months period they begin migrating towards the South as well as the West during autumn until the very first frost. They hibernate inside the warm weathers of Mexico and a few elements of Southern California where their ancestors migrated the earlier spring. Additionally they hibernate within the exact same trees oyamel fir tree if they migrate to Mexico and eucalyptus tress if theyre in California. It is incredible how the monarchs journey above 2500 miles every year towards the spot theyve got never observed just before.
Lifespan
The typical lifespan of adult Monarch Butterflies from the initial three generations that are born in early summer is about 26 weeks whilst the fourth era Monarch can dwell as much as eight months due to the long migration habit.
The Monarch butterflies are intriguing species which has 4 generations within a year. It forms one particular of the greatest groups of butterflies and it is known to become the most gorgeous of all butterflies.
