Is Jasmine a good name?
IT'S A VERY PRETTY NAME BUT BECAUSE IT IS DIFFERANT EVERYONE IS STARTING TO NAME THERE KIDS NAMES LIKE THAT...BUT IT IS VERY PRETTY
Reply:i think it is wonderful..i would spell it jazzmine i think it is way cute
Reply:love it considering its my favorite flower :)
would you consider different versions like Yasmine (i think that's arabic version(??) ) just to give it a little tang!?
Reply:BEAUTIFUL! Enough said!
Reply:Jasmine is extremely common!! But hey common is better than walking around with a kid named Jakima!!
Reply:very pretty name. it is becoming very popular though. i work at a school and there are 3 in the pre school program alone.
Reply:Love it, She could call herself Jazzy if she's a funky kid growing up or stay with the 'pretty' name of Jasmine.
Jazzy-Lynn...
Reply:I love that name!
Reply:When I think of the name Jasmine i think of Jasmine from disney's aladdin and want to break out singing "A Whole New World"
Reply:Jasmine is a beautiful name.
Reply:Lynn is too plain for a beautiful name like Jasmine.
How about:
Jasmine Lily
Jasmine Rose
Jasmine Claire
Jasmine Delia
Reply:Jasmine is a very popular name, There is 3 girls in my family with that name. It is a pretty name
Reply:very cute
Reply:Jasmine is a nice name.
Reply:Jasmine Lynn sounds beautiful. Jasmine is a very, very popular name as is Lynn for a middle name. You could always add one more name (for example, Jasmine Rose Lynn, or add a family name) so that her name will truly be unique. I know a lot of people think it is weird to give a child an unique name, but with all the identity theft happening, it's almost a necessity!
Reply:Really pretty
Reply:it is a very pretty name, but after the Disney movie came out, a lot of people started using it. look for something unique to you and your child. search the web for origins and meaning. you'll find something that feels right to you.
Reply:I like it..... It's definatley popular.....which kinda sucks...but how about mixing things up by spelling it- Jazmyn Lynne???????

How hardy is pink jasmine and what fertilizer is best?
I love the smell of pink jasmine, but I have really poor soil. I live in the south so it would have plenty of heat. I went to Home Depot and they had pink jasmine and wow it was the best smelling plant there. Just wanting to know if any of you have one and were you happy with your purchase.
How hardy is pink jasmine and what fertilizer is best?
I have white jasmin which is also very fragrant. I'm in Oregon, so I can tell you that it stands up well to months of rain and can survive an occasional temperature drop to below 20.
It's a hardy plant and can survive a lot. Just keep it watered during the hot water. Occasionally you could give it some general fertilizer like Miracle Grow, but it's not a heavy feeder
You could improve your soil by working in come compost. If you don't have compost, buy a bag of planting soil and work it into the soil before planting your jasmine.
I have my jasmine, some honeysuckle and roses growing right outside my bedroom window. It's just heavenly when I open the window on a summer night. :-) Enjoy your jasmine!.
Reply:They are easy to grow. Use compost to amend the soil and fertilize once a month. Water regularly and dont let it dry out. Put a trellis so that it can grow up. If you clip some flowers and put it in the house it will make it smell so nice. I only have the white one and am satisfied, the pink one sounds even prettier.

How do you cook Jasmine Rice??
My daughter gave me a 5 lb bag of Jasmine Rice. Does anyone have any good recipes?
I have tried making rice before but it always came out sticky and horrible. Is there a difference between Jasmine and long grain rice?
I heard that you should soak it in water for a couple hours before you cook it. Is that true?
How do you cook Jasmine Rice??
HOW TO COOK JASMINE RICE
2 1/2 cups Thai jasmine rice
3 cups water
Place rice in a small saucepan (approx. 2-1/2 qt). Rinse rice by running cold water over two or three times to cover and pouring the water out. This rids the rice of excess starch powder and broken rice which makes the cooked rice mushy and sticky. Add just enough water to cover the top of the rice by 1/2-inch (approximately 3 cups).
A convenient trick is to place your middle finger, just touching the top of the rice in the pan. The water level should be just below the first joint of your finger, from the tip. No measuring needed.
Cover the pot with the lid. Place over medium to medium high heat. Bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to low. Simmer, covered, another 10 minutes, until the water has completely evaporated.
Turn off the burner and allow rice to sit, covered, for at least another 5 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature (especially with spicy curries). Serves 2 to 3.
Reply:considering a 5 lb bag of rice, I assume your daughter bought it at a foreign grocery market.
As a rule I rinse Jasmine rice, whether it says New Crop on the bag or not. You need not soak it for hours however, just a quick rinse in a colander to remove any excess bran, shake well and you're good to go.
Now cooking it might be different.
Boil the water, stir in the rice, lower the heat, then place a folded towel over the top of the pot, making sure none of the towel is long enough to reach the burner, and then place the lid on the pot, trapping all the steam.
DO NOT OPEN the pot.
After 10 minutes, take the pot off the stove.
LEAVE IT ALONE!
After 5 minutes, fluff it with a fork.
Great, aromatic light flavor.

Is jasmine tea the same as green tea?
I know that green tea detoxifies your body %26amp; what not. but does jasmine tea have the same effect, if not, what does it do?
Is jasmine tea the same as green tea?
Jasmine is a kind of floral green tea. That is, the green tea is left alongside some jasmine flowers to absorp its fragrance. It is just another type of green tea.
How good it is really depend on where you get it from.
The healthiest green tea is loose-leaf or original teabags. Read the following link to find out more.

Is jasmine rice a refined product?
is jasmine rice (white color, not brown) refined or not?
thank you..
Is jasmine rice a refined product?
Refined?
I'd say yes... the rice is white so the hull has been removed through a milling process.
Reply:processed by removal of the hull, but not technically "refined"
Reply:Jasmine rice (Thai: ข้าวหอมมะลิ; kao hom mali) is a long-grain variety of rice that has a nutty aroma and subtle flavor. This rice should be rinsed before cooking to rid it of extra starch. The grains will cling when cooked, though having less amylopectin, it is less sticky than other rices. Most households in Thailand consume this type of rice and it is commonly found in supermarkets, this type of rice is mainly used for many types of rice dishes or plain white rice in Thailand. Hawkers and most commercial establishments do not use this type of rice for cooking due to its high price.

Can Jasmine grow inside?
Can a Jasmine plant grow inside? I love the smell and want to bring it in.
Thanks
Can Jasmine grow inside?
Maybe, if you have a large container and a very bright place to put it. I want to issue a warning though. The plant Carolina Jessamine (jasmine) is very poisonous so if this is the jasmine you have or are planning on getting make sure pets or children will not be around it. One flower can kill a 40lb life form.
Reply:its possible if you keep it in full sun and dont let the soil dry out. its a plant that gets big though and spreads so itd have to be in a pretty darn big pot.
Reply:Jasmine likes the outdoors and grows strongly towards sunlight. I have had it grow 8' to get to sunlight. It likes water and branches heavily as well as having very long invasive roots. Better to get a candle or incense that smell like jasmine.
Reply:Take a look at Arabian Jasmine (J. sambac) - you may be able to grow that inside. We have one that we bring in every winter when it drops consistently below 50 degrees, and it will be five years old this summer.
Reply:I agree with the others when they say a rather large pot should be needed. Also, it would have to be in a spot where it can get PLENTY of sun, as it is the type of plant that not only does it need good soil, but as much sun as possible.
I personally don't think that it will bloom and be wonderful as you want it inside your house. Maybe you should consider planting it by a window so that the aroma may be inside the house through it.
But for more information, you might want to visit P Allen Smith's website, with tons of information and tips. Good luck!

Buying jasmine flowers?
Where can I buy jasmine flowers? I want to send a box to my boyfriends mom because she LOVES the smell of them...I cant really find any websites that sell them?
Buying jasmine flowers?
Usually individual jasmine flowers are not sold, as they are too small. You might be interested in buying her the jasmine vine; although there are several. One is star jasmine, the little white one dotted all over an evergreen bush. Another is pink jasmine, which opens pink and goes to a blush white. It is not very fragrant, however. Star Jasmine or Confederate Jasmine is the most common type and can be bought at any good nursery or online.

Does Jasmine tea or any decaffinated tea stop iron absorbtion?
I am trying to find out if anyone knows if decaffinated tea or Jasmine tea stops iron absorbtion. My iron levels are so low and I know that drinking Earl Grey caffinated has not helped.
Does Jasmine tea or any decaffinated tea stop iron absorbtion?
Most teas, decaffeinated or not, interfere with iron absorption. They do not stop the absorption. The substances in teas that do this are tannins, which are found in larger amounts in coffee, tea, grapes, red wine, purple or red rice, bran fiber, and chocolate.
Almost all plants have tannins in some form.
I found a link about iron absorption and one about tannins for you.
Reply:Agree.
All teas interfere with iron absorption. The fact that tea is an antioxidant (and therefore binds with metals) means it interferes with iron absorption.
To put this into perspective, many foods and beverages also reduce the amount of non-heme iron we absorb. These include coffee, dairy, fiber, eggs and some chocolate. Calcium can impair the absorption of both non-heme and heme iron.
Therefore if you need more iron, you should avoid these foods. But if you have too much iron, you should eat more of them.
If you suffer from or are prone to iron deficiency, the following tips might help:
Cut down on tea and coffee, especially black tea, and even some herbal varieties.
Add lemon juice to your cuppa. Some people prefer milk, but milk won’t help you absorb more iron - lemon does.
If you drink loose tea, brew it half-strength. Add 2 to 3 grams of loose leaves per cup. Avoid full-strength tea.
Avoid drinking tea with a meal, or half an hour afterwards.
Avoid drinking tea if you are having a period.

Reply:Hi! I bought mine last month with only about 3 fruits in it. It didn't develop much for a few weeks after I bought it, but now it already has very fragrant blooms. I placed in outside our house under a shady area, but still catches the morning sunlight. You may want to put it outside first and wait if something happens.

What's the typical price for Jasmine rice?
I bought a 25lb bag for $19 at a Indian supermarket. When I got home my house mate balked at the price. I noticed in a traditional supermarket a similar bag of Jasmine for less although it said "with broken grains".
So did I pay too much?
Is there a noticeable difference between brands of jasmine?
Does broken grains have any effect on the taste or merely cosmetic?
Btw, I was going to buy Basmati but it was more than twice as expensive as the Jasmine.
What's the typical price for Jasmine rice?
6.78$
Reply:broken grains will not cook the rice the same, it will be mushier, it's best to get a high quality rice.
Reply:Jasmine is usually 15 to 25% more than regular rice of the same quantity.

Btw, I was going to buy Basmati but it was more than twice as expensive as the Jasmine.
What's the typical price for Jasmine rice?
6.78$
Reply:broken grains will not cook the rice the same, it will be mushier, it's best to get a high quality rice.
Reply:Jasmine is usually 15 to 25% more than regular rice of the same quantity.
Reply:0.000000000001p a grain

Birth Control -- Is 'Jasmine' the same as 'Yasmin'??? Help!?
Is the birth control pill 'Jasmine' (manufactured by SCHERING in Germany) the exact same birth control pill as 'Yasmin' (manufactured by BERLEX, also from Germany)? My prescription is for Yasmin but my friend has like six packages of Jasmine she's going to throw out! Her doctor prescribed them to her to help her with her skin problems, now those problems are gone and she's just going to throw out the pills...I'd hate for her to waste them (she doesn't want to either) so if they're the same birth control pill -- just by a different name in Europe/France than the US -- I'll use them. Any help???

Hi i wouldnt take it. Go and see a doctor or ask someone at the chemist they are always very helpfull if you havent got time to see your doctor. I take Yasmin.
Reply:don't do it. go buy the book by Suzanne Somers: Ageless: The Naked Truth About Bioidentical Hormones. buy it at the book store, amazon or ebay. it will tell you that women should never take the pill.

Birth Control Pills and Breast Cancer
November 22nd, 2006
As Dorian noted in NewsSquawk a few weeks back, a meta-analysis of breast cancer data recently revealed a statistically significant correlation between use of the contraceptive pill prior to full-term pregnancy and premenopausal breast cancer.
I finally got a moment to hop over to Procedings, the journal of the Mayo Clinic that reported on the study, and while the article itself is limited to subscribers, the editorial that offers analysis on the findings is open to all.
First off, I was amazed to read that the International Agency for Research on Cancer, which is part of the World Health Organization, categorized the contraceptive pill as a carcinogen in 2005. Granted, I’ve been a bit baby absorbed for the last couple of years, but I cannot believe I never read this news anywhere. Did it get any press? If not, why not?
Now for the findings…it appears that women who have ever used birth control pills have a ”small but statistically significant increased risk of breast cancer”. Furthermore, use of the Pill before having one’s first full-term pregnancy is more strongly associated with breast cancer than being on the Pill after having delivered a baby. The association is even stronger where these pre-baby Pill users were on birth control pills for four years or more. (The editorial further notes, “A higher risk of breast cancer for OC use before first full-term pregnancy was first described more than 25 years ago by Pike et al…” - again, I’m very surprised that evidence linking the Pill and breast cancer has been uncovered for so long, with so little press.)....

from Suzanne's book:
Those of us who were on the original birth control pills for any length of time were actually on synthetic hormones- strong synthetic hormones. Any wonder why women of our generation are under siege from an epidemic of breast and ovarian cancers? There is a link, and you'll learn more about it in this book.
Read on and see if you relate to my scenario: As I said, for twenty-two years, I was on synthetic birth control pills, the original ones that were very strong. I even manipulated my periods with them, if I didn't want to have a period on a particular weekend. I just didn't realize what was in those birth control pills, nor did I understand the dangers of messing with nature.
I did not realize that having only a two-day bleed meant that I was not ovulating fully. At the time, I thought it was great to have such a light period. I did not realize that the importance of ovulation in the human female body is to let the brain know that I was well, healthy, and reproductive. As far as my brain was concerned, I was not reproductive because I was not fully ovulating. An ovulating woman is a reproductive woman.
To believe that the body is not fully ovulating is a dangerous assumption for the brain to make. If the brain perceives us as unable to reproduce, its job, biologically speaking, is to try to eliminate us to make room for the reproductive ones. This is the nature in us. This is the template that was programmed in us from ancient times. Thus, this hormonal imbalance that I unknowingly put myself in was creating a backdrop for cancer. Why? Because we all have cancer in us, but as long as we are hormonally balanced, the brain perceives us as young, strong, and healthy. If we become imbalanced, this signals to the brain that the reproductive system is no longer in working order, and it is in this scenario that the cancer has a chance to come into being.
You see, cancer proliferates in an environment of hormonal imbalance. This is why I believe that Western medicine's standard of care, well-meaning as it is, is treating us incorrectly. Western medicine is looking at everything except the obvious. Western medicine is trying to poison the cancer out of us, further wreaking havoc with our hormonal systems.
Then, to prevent recurrence, we are given hormone ablation drugs such as tamoxifen or Femara, which interfere with the body's ability to read the hormones in some parts of the body. Plus, for many women these drugs cause horrible side effects. To me, it doesn't make sense to take any drug that prevents new hormones from being made in our bodies or to kill off any of the little bit of hormones we might have left. Why has Western medicine been trying to outthink nature? We are given fake hormones that don't replicate exactly what our bodies make naturally, and doctors are expecting them to work in the same way or better. It hasn't worked. Look around. Are the women you know doing well from midlife on? Most everyone has complaints, from mild to severe. No wonder women are in such bad shape.
Once you understand the importance of your brain perceiving the body as reproductive--our "brain template"--it will be easier for you to make decisions for yourself. We assume that the professionals who are taking care of us know what they are doing. But they can't know what they haven't been taught, and unless you find yourself a doctor such as the ones....
Reply:You should ask your health care professional. Take it to your doctor! I was once given the wrong birth control pill and I felt like CRAP when I took it!
Reply:NEVER take someone else's prescription.
Just take your own Yasmin.
Reply:i think there diffrent im pretty sure but not 100% sure thats a very good question though
