The biggest question for the Panthers surrounds offensive coordinator Rob Chudzinski and whether he's able to land a head-coaching job this offseason. If he does depart, the value of Carolina's skill-position players will take a hit if there's a new offense to learn. If Chudzinski isn't back, I can see head coach Ron Rivera bringing in a coordinator with a similar style to keep the growth going with as minimal a setback as possible.
QB Cam Newton: Will he suffer a sophomore slump or continue to improve?
The big fear is Newton suffering the dreaded sophomore slump. There's a season of film on him but his agility, size — at 6-5, 248 pounds — and the strength of his legs to extend the play and use them as a weapon always gives players like him greater fantasy value. Just look at other quarterbacks with agility, such as Michael Vick, Steve Young and even Tim Tebow.
Newton ended the season with an average of 253.2 passing yards, 1.3 TDs and 1.1 interceptions in 16 games but it was his legs that made the difference. He averaged 7.9 attempts for 44.1 yards and 0.9 TDs. He scored 2.2 TDs per game and ended with 35 total.
He'll be a top-tier fantasy QB, but watch to see what happens to Chudzinski, and if the coach does leave, who replaces him.
RB DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart: What should we expect to see?
- Williams' average in 16 games: 9.7 attempts for 52.3 yards and 0.44 TDs with one catch for 8.4 yards on 1.6 targets per game
- Stewart's average in 16 games: 8.9 attempts for 47.6 yards and 0.25 TDs with 2.9 catches for 25.8 yards and 0.06 TDs on 3.8 targets per game.
Williams has a $43 million contract with $21 million guaranteed and Stewart has a five-year, $14 million contract with $10.8 million guaranteed so look for both players to return. If I were Stewart, I would probably be a bit upset at the pay difference. Stewart gained 73.4 yards from scrimmage per game with five total TDs to Williams' 60.7 yards from scrimmage per game and seven total TDs. These numbers reflect quality use by the team but a nightmare for fantasy owners. This will continue making both players flex-position players with only injury giving either player greater value.
WR Steve Smith: Can he post another season like 2011?
Smith had his best season since 2008, averaging 4.9 catches for 87.1 yards and 0.4 TDs on 8.1 targets per game. That comes out to 1,394 and seven TDs on 129 targets, making him one of the more productive WRs in the league. He'll be 33 years old next season but takes great care of himself and has the mental capacity to succeed on this level. His speed as a deep threat could slow a step, but with QB Cam Newton entering his second year in the same offense and able to extend the play, Smith will still have low-end No. 1 fantasy value.

Police say a 25-year-old man who was attempting to clean his truck's windshield as he was driving down the street ran over a woman's foot in downtown Thursday morning.
Charleston police say the incident happened just before 7 a.m. outside Roper Hospital in the area of Courtenay and Charleston Center drives.
A traffic collision report states that the driver of the truck ran over the woman's foot as he was attempting to clean his windshield. According to the report, the driver did not see the woman stepping into the crosswalk.
Francis said the victim was taken to the Medical University of South Carolina for treatment. Their condition is unknown at this point.

In The News
May 8, 2009
MILITARY – Reports of sexual assault in the military rose nine percent over last year, but only a small number of cases went to military courts or were referred for non-judicial punishment. In about 20 percent of cases (643 of the 2,923 reported), the victim sought care or made a report but refused to provide all the information necessary to pursue an investigation. The Associated Press reports that, "The Defense Department allows those limited reports on the theory that it encourages victims to at least seek care when they might otherwise keep silent."
NATIONAL – In late April, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced that it will approve the sale of Plan B, emergency contraception, over-the-counter to 17-year-olds. Plan B is highly effective at preventing pregnancy and is most commonly used by rape victims and women who want to avoid pregnancy after having unprotected sex. For years, many violence prevention and reproductive rights advocates have urged the federal government to make it available without a doctor's prescription; some accused the FDA of putting politics ahead of science when it refused to do so during the Bush Administration, the Washington Post reports.
FL – The Florida Coalition Against Domestic Violence found a 37 percent increase in the demand for emergency shelter services from August to December 2008, the Pensacola News Journal reports. Florida advocates cautioned that domestic violence occurs when the economy is good or bad, but said the economic downturn is taking a toll.
MA – State legislators honored the Bridgewater-Raynham public school district for its work with high schools to provide skill groups and peer and adult mentoring programs to help students build safe and supportive relationships, the Raynham Call reports. Bridgewater-Raynham was one of 30 schools and districts that received funding through the innovative Safe and Supportive Learning Environments program. Each grantee program addresses the educational and psycho-social needs of children who witnessed violence and had other adverse experiences. The Bridgewater-Raynham program has been extended to middle school to better prepare eighth grade students making the transition to high school.
NC – A gunman entered a Carthage nursing home and opened fire in March, killing seven elderly residents of the home and one nurse. Robert K. Stewart was wounded by Carthage police and taken into custody. Officials believe that Stewart may have targeted the nursing home because his estranged wife, Wanda Luck, was on duty when the shootings occurred. However, she was in a locked ward for Alzheimer's patients and not hurt, the Raleigh News & Observer reports. Several members of Luck's family told reporters that Stewart drank heavily and was prone to violent rages.
AFGHANISTAN – President Hamid Karzai said the Afghan government will change a law that critics say legalizes rape within marriage. A review of the law, which has been the subject of broad international criticism because it introduces Taliban-era restrictions on women and sanctions marital rape, was ordered last month. President Karzai told activists last month that he had not read the legislation when he signed it, Reuters reports. President Obama and many U.S. lawmakers have been among the critics. Three hundred Afghan women walked through the streets of the capital to protest the new law, and then delivered a petition calling for its repeal. The law was crafted to affect only the Shi'ite Muslim community, 15 percent of Afghanistan's population. Critics have accused Karzai of signing the legislation in haste because he faces re-election this summer and wants to curry favor with Shi'ite voters.
INDIA – An article on the Lancet's web site finds that more than 100,000 young women age 15 to 34 were killed in fires in 2001. Researchers believe that kitchen accidents, self-immolation and homicides related to different forms of domestic violence – including bride burnings and dowry deaths – are the main reasons that young women are dying in fires. The article said, "Fire-related injuries are an important public health problem in India, and need urgent attention." The number of young women killed is six times higher than the number reported to police.

3.96/5 rDev -6.4%
Pours pitch black and a bit thick with a mocha colored head of creamy foam that fell fast but tried to leave lace. It has a nose that is bursting with tropical fruit and some orange citrus. Floral hops , a bit of pine, and not to be outdone a terrific roasty malt. The malt has a bit of dark sweet chocolate on it and this beer smells like something wonderful. Taste is fabulous. The mouthfeel is a bit thick and it travels the palate somewhat slowly but to it's advantage. It shows off a dry roasted malt that is a touch bitter and has a bit of chocolate on it. It's soft to the palate and creamy. The fruits are tremendous. Tropical like pineapple and mango then orangey and also a touch of tart grapefruit. The hops give a bit of pine. The beer finishes creamy, sticky and with a wonderful bitter that lasts and allows a bit of caramel and all that fruit to linger in the aftertaste with just a hint of the chocolate left to really make you tear up a bit.

4.58/5 rDev +8.3%
This one was canned exactly 3 weeks ago.
An aggressive center pour from the 16oz. can into a tulip glass produces a strong, dense foamy head. It slowly subsides to a light coating on top and a lovely lace along the sides of the glass. This beer is blacker than most. No light shines through this brew.
The aroma is not extremely strong and is mostly pine and citrus with a little bit of roast coffee or dark chocolate hiding in the shadows. As it warms, the smell seems to grow a bit with some pineapple showing up as well.
The taste is rather amazing. A hoppy, bitter bite right up front quickly followed by dark chocolate, maybe some strong coffee and then finishing with a lingering piney dryness. I want to keep going back for another drink. The alcohol is hidden, buried deep in the inky depths.
The mouthfeel is about right with a hint of creaminess and even a touch of sweet stickiness. The carbonation is just right.
Overall, an excellent beer. This one runs deep.
A little pricey? Perhaps. I paid $18.99 for the 4-pack.

4.53/5 rDev +7.1%
Serving glass: Poured from can into dimpled mug.
Appearance: Near black with moderately sized tan head and light lacing.
Smell: Strong hop aroma with grapefruit, tropical notes and pine. Some light roasted malts, but this smells much more IPA than Black.
Taste: Same as the aroma, this is very hoppy, with lots of grapefruit, tropical fruit, orange, pine and even some darker, sweeter fruits. Very juicy. However, there is also a nice malt base, with chocolate, molasses and light char. Finish is hoppy and roasted with some bitterness.
Feel: Creamy and fairly full bodied. Moderate carbonation with a dry finish. Somewhat oily but also slightly chalky. Not boozy at all.
Overall: Fantastic collaboration here. I can't believe this is 10%. Even though the taste is decadent enough for the abv, it is also fairly easy to drink. I hope this somehow is not just a one and done release.

Poured from a 16 oz. can into a Surly tulip glass. Canned on 02/17/14.
Appearance: Pours dark and black with some hints of brownish ruby. Moderate amount of bubbles and about two fingers of light tan head which slowly fade into a thin creamy layer. Leaves a lot of creamy lacing around the glass.
Smell: A juicy, earthy, and roasty hop forward aroma with good hints of citrus, pine, and dark malt. Big upfront mix of hops with some earthy, floral, and citrus hints. Dank scent of pine resin and grass. Citrus fruit hints of pineapple, grapefruit, orange peel, mango, and lemon. Solid dark roasted malt presence with hints of chocolate, burnt toast, coffee, biscuit, grains, caramel, and yeast. Also some subtle licorice like spice hints. A very good aroma.
Taste: Like it smells, a dank and juicy hop forward taste with good notes of citrus, pine, and roasty malts. Ripe upfront taste of floral, citrus, and herbal hops with some good notes of spicy pine resin and damp grass. Big juicy presence of citrus hop flavors of pineapple, grapefruit, orange peel, lemon, and mango. Dark roasted barley malts with notes of chocolate, burnt toast, biscuit, coffee, grains, caramel, oats, and yeast. Light licorice spice presence as well. Nicely bitter, oily, and juicy. A very good black ale taste.
Mouthfeel: Full bodied with a moderate amount of carbonation. Juicy, oily, and pretty drying. Alcohol is smoothed out well.
Overall: A very good imperial Black Ale. Good mix of citrus and piney hop flavors with a good balance of dark malt. A pretty cool collaboration from Surly, Three Floyds, and Real Ale.

2012 was the year of giving up…and not in a I-will-no-longer-eat-fast-food sort of way. In a I-can't-commit-to-anything sort of way. I was restless and unfocused and, overall, uninspired. At some point in the year I started then later gave up on scrapbooking, wearing makeup, photography, writing a memoir, cross stitch, knitting, crochet, blogging, sewing, running, watching the X-Files, embroidery. Only thing I really stuck to was reading (three cheers for the Kindle) and dying my hair (though partly because of the appointments made in advance).
I felt not good enough. My photos weren't as great as those of others on Flickr or Instagram, especially because I wasn't willing to dress up in a funny costume and never figured out how to clone myself with software. My current life had no excitement to blog about and my past was too boring to write about even within the confines of the notebooks that no one ever sees. My cross stitch was mundane; my attempts at a TARDIS embroidery untidy. My knitting (except socks, everyone always love their handknit socks) was unwanted. My attempts at cooking, bland. My attempts to mentor the students at FIRST, ineffective. My job search did go well at first because my suit didn't fit properly (not because a great job was waiting for my within my own company – where I wore jeans to my interview). The only thing I could do correctly was eat, it seemed. Oh, and fall asleep reading. Totally mastered that this year.
So..what will be different in 2013? I'll learn not to care. Okay, still care about important things like doing my absolute best at work and not dressing like a slob and making sure the bathrooms are clean when guests come over. But, not to care about things which are creative.
My friend Heather once told me that you can't possibly fail at creativity. And, you know what, she's right. No one dies if your embroidery is crooked or your photos is a bit blurry (call it "artsy") or your mac-n-cheese is a bit runny.
Because, for the 100th time, all of my creative (and running, 'cause, you know, there's that, too) efforts are worth it. Because, greater than that, I'm worth it. My time, my energy, my effort, my stash of craft supplies – all worth it.

The capital of Canada is Ottawa, in the province of Ontario. There are offically ten provinces and three territories in Canada, which is the second largest country in the world in terms of land area.
While politically and legally an independant nation, the titular head of state for Canada is still Queen Elizabeth.
On the east end of Canada, you have Montreal as the bastion of activity. Montreal is famous for two things, VICE magazine and the Montreal Jazz Festival. One is the bible of hipster life (disposable, of course) and the other is a world-famous event that draws more than two million people every summer. Quebec is a French speaking province that has almost seceded from Canada on several occasions, by the way..
When you think of Canada, you think of . . . snow, right?
But not on the West Coast. In Vancouver, it rains. And you'll find more of the population speaking Mandarin than French (but also Punjabi, Tagalog, Korean, Farsi, German, and much more).
Like the other big cities in Canada, Vancouver is vividly multicultural and Vancouverites are very, very serious about their coffee.
Your standard Vancouverite can be found attired head-to-toe in Lululemon gear, mainlining Cafe Artigiano Americanos (spot the irony for ten points).
But here's a Vancouver secret only the coolest kids know: the best sandwiches in the city aren't found downtown. Actually, they're hidden in Edgemont Village at the foot of Grouse Mountain on the North Shore.
"It's actually worth coming to Canada for these sandwiches alone." -- Michelle Superle, Vancouver

Hi There, I have 1 question, what type of oil do I have to use ? any cooking oil or there is special oil made for oil pulling purpose. Thank you & Regards, Jonathan.

01/24/2014Hi Jonathan, according to Ayurveda where O.P. originated, RAW SESAME oil is used for best results. Good luck, OmPosted by Laura
06/07/2014Do search engine on eskimos and their white/cavity free teeth. Their diet consists of seal oil which they put on foods and whale meat/innards. The whale & seal oil is high in Omega 3 fatty acids, vitamin d, vitamin a. I would look for the oil that is highest with these 3 for oil pulling-cod liver oil? The whale meat is probably chewed for a long time, and releases oil in the mouth, much like the oil pulling style, but more macular. When you look up the history of oil pulling it gives credit to india and asia going back 3000 years. It says nothing about any credit going to eskimos who go back at least 6000 years!!Posted by Kimberly (Charlotte, North Carolina) on 12/21/2013
Happy Holidays! I just discovered this site and just tried OP for the 1st time this morning with olive oil. Have had serious headaches.... migraines.... chronic sinus infections..... Aches and pains FOR YEARS. After drinking lots of water after OP'ing. Can I drink my apple cider vinager?Posted by Mmsg

12/22/2013Kimberly, oil pulling never interfered with any other remedies for me.Posted by Cj
New Zealand
12/27/2013Yes of course you should drink ACV - after you've OP'd of course. That will only help your cause immensely. Stick with the OPing as well, even if you find you're getting more headaches etc, that's the toxins leaving your body. But try other oils such as coconut, or walnut (they say that's the best one). I guess that all depends on your taste buds. Do the OPing twice a day at first, then go down to just the mornings.Posted by Om
Hope Bc Canada
12/27/2013Cj from New Zealand: oil pulling is an age old Ayurvedic method to remove toxins from the body. Even though almost everybody on EC uses other oils, the right oil is plain sesame oil. If research is done, it is stated that other oils are not as effective. OmPosted by Man
Sojouring America
03/02/2014Thank you for statement. Would you kindly grace the rest of us with your sources and information proving your allegation? I would certainly like to see the research . It would save me from my own experimentations with DMSO. If there is already conclusive evidence that this process works and that plain sesame oil is the best then, please stop withholding from the rest of us your sources so that your peers here can review them. Thank you.Posted by Hema (India) on 10/15/2013
[YEA] Since a week I have been trying this and I experienced these things. oil pulling reduces leg cramps, cracked heels and also gives great energy.Posted by Cecilia (Scranton, Pennsylvania, Usa) on 06/16/2013
Hey guys!!! I just discoved this site a few days ago and wow!!! This is amazing-- all these super easy amazing cures I never knew about! Anyway, I'm just wondering, if I start oil pulling, should I not brush my teeth with regular tooth paste after? Would it be better if I used something like baking soda, or should I just rinse my mouth out after? Thanks!!!Posted by Annie
06/17/2013Your teeth have been cleaned by OP so not nessessary to brush to be clean but it will get the oil and yuck out of your mouth. Stay away from flouride toothpaste, bad news, get a natural one without it or just use soda and water. I just use water and my brush after I pull.Posted by Clio51 (Manchester, Uk) on 05/21/2013
Hi, Do you have to do the oil pulling at a certain time of day or can I do it anytime as I'm not very good in the mornings. Does it have to be organic?Posted by Om
Hope, B.c., Canada
43 PostsTo Clio51 from Manchester. According to Ayurvedic books, oil pulling should be done in the early morning before drink or food with sesame oil. In twenty minutes the oil should look white when expelled. Then rinse mouth several times. The action is on all energy points on the tongue , that is why oil pulling benefits all body organs.
I have done it now for almost a year and loose teeth are firm again. Otherwise my teeth have whitened over time. Other benefits may be there as I have no other issues. Keep it up. OmPosted by Alan

2 PostsI believe that the positive, measurable results of oil pulling are due to the the physics of CAVITATION. The implosion of bubbles in liquid is a well studied phenomenon outside of the human mouth... It's considerable power will degrade a ships propeller in short order... In an ultrasonic parts cleaner it will strip tarnish from silver and filth from your jewelry. The variations in oil viscosity (sunflower vs. Olive etc.) WILL produce different cleaning or stimulative effect. Water will work as well but takes much more time as it's viscosity results in lower cavitational power. Very little mysticism here but a lot of misinformation.Posted by Kathy (the USA) on 04/21/2013
Why is it emphasized to OP on an empty stomach? I had done it awhile after I ate and didn't seem to have any problem. Could I be causing harm without being aware of it?Posted by Polly
London , England
04/22/2013That is a very good question because when I was pulling on an empty stomach I was waking with a thirst (I am 62 and I follow a very healthy lifestyle) So I started drinking filtered water and camomile tea (which I have overnight by my bed) THEN oil pulling and its still very effective!Posted by Kathy
the USA
327 PostsHi Polly, I should have "replied" to those who posted the emphasis but did not... I sometimes awaken with extreme hunger. At two in the morning I am so hungry I don't feel like OP for twenty minutes before I eat! If you have such a thirst, your acceptable table salt may be the problem. The flowing/anti-caking agent contributes to more ailments than is recognized and could be in other spices. I use a sea salt that is labeled "real" because it does not contain those agents. I thought I might be eaten up with parasites or have a tapeworm but I eat garlic and use ACV that I had read are remedies to those problems. I'm sixty-five and try to keep my weight at a hundred.Posted by Guest (Bangalore, India) on 02/27/2013
Is it okay if I include Coconut Oil in the morning & Sunflower oil in the evening in my daily oil pulling regimen?Posted by Lk (Toronto, Ontario ) on 01/09/2013
I am interested in starting oil pulling but I take hyperthyroid medication daily. Is it possible to do this without affecting my medication? ThanksPosted by Farra (Duncan, Oklahoma, Usa) on 12/27/2012
[SIDE EFFECTS] I tried OP for the first time yesterday with pure virgin olive oil. Healthy with no known disease just wanted to try it. I was only able to do it for 5 mins. My partner said my breath was terrible the rest of the day, into the night. She even claims that when we woke up the whole room smelled a little "rotten". This morning I did more research and tried again, 20 mins. I rinsed with salt water after and brushed (I did neither the day before). I read through so many post and seems no one experienced bad breath AFTER, is this strange? I could only think it must be doing something if a tiny bit of olive oil is making that big of difference. Any thoughts or suggestions, should I discontinue use?Posted by Timh

1229 PostsI too get bad breath from O.P. It must represent the condition of some type infection or toxin in the body. I use mouthwash before and after O.P. , and also take 1 grm Vit-C before and 3 grms MSM after O.P. I also swish H2O2 occasionally to reduce the yellowing of the teeth.Posted by Mmsg
Somewhere, Europe
12/28/2012Farra, there are 2 things you can do: 1. continue just as till now and within a week, it should clear us IF the oil is "doing something". 2. Switch to a different oil and see if you get other results.Posted by Cameron

35 PostsDo not brush your teeth after Oil Pulling!!!!!! If you just use the Oil and then rinse your mouth after you will not have bad breath, if you really need to brush do so before Oil Pulling. Try using Sesame as it is the most highly recommended and best tasting(to me) my breath is great the following morning after OP the night before and no plaque or yuck taste first thing.Posted by Swishie
Green Fort Greene, Neverland, Second Star
06/28/201320 minutes may be too long as well. You're creating an emulsification that draws out then traps the bacteria in your mouth & encouraging saponification. You want the oil pulled to be white and frothy when you spit. If it falls and goes clear you're basically swishing toxic stuff all over your teeth. I do 15 minutes.
& Always brush beforehand! The sesame oil has been proven to retard plaque for up to 12 hours.Posted by Jane (Red Deer, Alberta, Canada) on 12/23/2012
[YEA] Been OP [oil pulling] since mid-November about twice a day with VCO. My first day, noticed a lot of mucus on my tongue after the second pull. I brushed my teeth & tongue after and rinsed with water as well. Most days I just have to blow my nose after & maybe spit mucus once or twice. A couple days back, I felt a scratchy feeling near the back of my mouth towards the throat when I was done. I took out a flashlight & saw a small round bump. Then I noticed what looked like mucus coming out of the throat area around the tonsils, coming through the flesh. Then, the next half hour I started coughing & spitting up phlegm continuously. Then it stopped, the bump & mucus was gone, and I had the best night's sleep I've had in awhile. The changes I've noticed so far include clear skin, I just don't seem to get acne now & I've had bouts of acne for over 25 years. My hair doesn't seem to split as bad as it used to. My teeth are whiter, tartar that has built up on the inside front of two of my lower teeth seems to be reducing, my gums are a lighter pink. I started breaking out in hives a few months back. I would feel like my heart was racing even though my pulse was normal or even slightly low. I would feel a burning inside that sometimes made me physically ill to my stomach. It looked like someone was drawing the world map on my back & legs from the hives. Numerous sleepless nights as a result. It took me awhile to figure out that the triggers were all grains & sulfites. I have had a couple of accidental exposures since the oil pulling & the hives symptoms are significantly reduced. In fact, there was only a slight feeling of racing and a couple small areas of hives. I have also noticed the fibrocystic lumps in my breasts seem to be shrinking and this has been the most pain free period in the last couple weeks than I've had for more than a year (although I should add that for the last few months I have also gone off all caffeine & no bra). Finally, there is no arthritis in my hands so far this year. By this time, last year, my hands were always either stiff or sore. Oil pulling is quite literally changing my life. I have always tried to live healthy, my weight is reasonable, in fact I've only had two periods of time my entire life where I was overweight. Once from childbirth and once from an injury that limited my movement for six months. However, despite all the healthy eating & use of natural medicine, nothing has created as noticeable a difference as oil pulling has. I want to thank you; because it was while I was trying to search for remedies for hives that I came across oil pulling on this site. Thank you!Posted by Robertapate

2 PostsYou may want to look into taking Iodine . I take Iodoral. It immediately took care of ALL breast tenderness, soreness, fibers, cysts, everything. It was so bad before that I could hardly stand under the shower. Amazing product and another sad "Natural" healer that has gone from our diets. Check it out. Dr. Abrahams http://www.westonaprice.org/metabolic-disorders/the-great-iodine-debate Hope this enlightens you on breast tenderness and health. =)Posted by Maria (Pixley, California United States) on 12/19/2012
I am just curious if oil pulling can be done with Corn / vegetable oil this is the only oil we have at home and I would really like to try it!Posted by Timh
Louisville, Ky, Usa
1229 PostsMaria: I use the standard (proly gmo) veg oil (usually corn or soy) for pulling for whole body detox. I also don't use 1 spoon, I get a mouth full for about 15 min. What's left I spit in empty plastic peanut bottle and the contents is usually bad smelly and always cloudy. If you are pulling for oral health I can't testify for this remedy. If you're body isn't in need of detox (young & healthy) the Coconut Oil will proly be your best choice. Anyway, give us some input of your condition and results from O.P. ing.Posted by Angelclare (Valencia, California, Usa) on 12/07/2012
I can NOT find the section that describes exactly HOW to do oil pulling!! Can anyone direct me? Thank you.

I love my gums and my teeth and am very proud of them... But for some reason all of a sudden my gums felt like they were receding and because of my smoking habit seemed to be losing their brightness. So I started to look into natural cures instead of going to the dentist; I never could stand the dentist... I felt that whenever he would stick his pick in my teeth and then yank on each of them, then trying to create a deeper crevice in it, I knew there was something not right about this being the only method of keeping our teeth healthy.
Anyhoo, so I started to oil pull sporatically when I had the chance. I work night shift every night so my sleeping habits are all backwards, not to mention eat candy to keep me awake in the night.
I bought safflower oil from the grocery store, and the first effect I noticed, or more like my friends noticed, was how great my skin looked within 1 DAY! I have had horrible acne for about 6 years due to starting meth as a teen but even after I stopped using for some time my face felt horrible. Next effect was actually scary until I realized what it was due to. I started to sleep non-stop. I felt like I should go to the doctor or something or I had hypersomnia. Then I read a couple messages on a few boards and saw that oil-pulling can cause the body to detox/make you sleepy. PHEW... So I'm guessing my body really needed it.
THIS IS THE SCARY PART! So as I was swishing the oil one night, I actually fell asleep with the oil in my mouth! Next thing I know I felt myself swallow and realized suddenly that I had swallowed all of the toxins back down again! I don't even know how long I left the oil just sitting in my mouth for. I quickly tried to spit it out and rinsed with water.
Since that one incident, my gums have receded so dramatically I almost burst into tears every time I see them bleed. I can't even smile anymore and I'm so self conscious and uncomfortable around everyone. Can someone help me please? I don't know if that was the reason for this and if there is a way I can strengthen and remineralise???Posted by Oilpuller (Toronto, On,canada) on 12/03/2012
[SIDE EFFECTS] I have done oil pulling in the past, but never was a regular oil puller... I have been in good health, with no major complaints and had excellent immune system.
Since beginning of this year... Life has kind of been on roller coaster ride, fractured bone, death of family member, a miscarriage... Kind of have taken over my health and to add to that, something I kept ignoring until last week, white discharge from gums from couple of places... I was hoping it will go away on own.. but it persisted.
After visit to dentist... He said, most likely one of the lower front tooth will have to come out and I did not like hearing that, Came home and started oil pulling with coconut oil with few drops of oil of oregano... Feel my gums are bit better but the infection is still there, going to dentist tomorrow for cleaning (after 3 long years) and hope he will see some improvement.. plan to pull after the cleaning.
The biggest concern now is... I woke up today and felt like I was hit by a bus... Extreme fatigue.. Forced myself to work... Not able to concentrate... Want to sleep. With a toddler at home, hard to get any rest until its time to hit the bed... I had flu last week... And the cough and cold are still there. Should I switch the oils or continue and hope things will improve...
I want to know if someone had similar symptoms which subsided and got benefits...Posted by Timh
Louisville, Ky, Usa
1229 PostsOilpuller: I Oil Pull for whole body detox, which requires some additional cleaning as a result. I use otc mouthwash before and Hydrogen Peroxide after O. P. Also I experience symptoms of Esophagitis that causes extreme fatigue; treatment for this is burst Vit-A or Vit-E softgel in mouth and slowly swallow fallowed by Zinc Lozenge.
It appears you need any level of detox, but to stay specific, I personally do a Baking Soda/Sea Salt buffer, wait 15 min. take one grm Vit-C, Oil Pull, H2O2 wash, take 2 grm MSM.Posted by Effleurage1 (Aurora, Co, Arapahoe) on 11/17/2012

PFW Browns correspondent Tony Grossi, the Browns' beat writer for The (Cleveland) Plain Dealer, recently answered five questions about Cleveland as it enters the second quarter of the 2011 campaign. Here are our questions and his answers:
PFW: Grade Colt McCoy's performance to this point of the season.
Grossi: McCoy grades out to a C. He has to be more accurate. The team is asking him to throw too much.
PFW: Do you think the last few weeks for Peyton Hillis (sitting out Week Three, the repeated chatter about his contract, etc.) have affected his long-term future with the club?
Grossi: I think the contract dispute with Hillis comes down to one thing — a fundamental difference in what each side thinks Hillis is worth.
PFW: Grade first-season head coach Pat Shurmur's performance thus far.
Grossi: I would (give) Shurmur a B-minus. I can't remember a first-year coach having to overcome so many obstacles as laid in front of Shurmur.
PFW: In your estimation, what has been the key to the defense getting off to a good start this season?
Grossi: The young defensive front has been active and disruptive.
PFW: Do you expect a go-to receiver to emerge on offense this season?
Grossi: Rookie Greg Little could emerge as the go-to receiver very soon.
Tony Grossi's work can be found in The (Cleveland) Plain Dealer (Cleveland.com/browns). He can be followed on Twitter @TonyGrossi.

In 2008 Jaap van Zweden became Music Director of the Dallas Symphony Orchestra, bringing years of experience as Concertmaster of the legendary Concertgebouw Orchestra of Amsterdam to Texas.
Now Jaap van Zweden and the DSO are in New York, playing a concert at Carnegie Hall as part of the inaugural Spring for Music festival, an event that draws its participants from program proposals submitted by orchestras around the country.
This evening the DSO performs Steven Stucky's August 4, 1964. Here is an excerpt of the program notes.
The Dallas Symphony commissioned this work in observance of President Lyndon Baines Johnson's 100th birthday in August 2008. August 4, 1964 explores the epic tragedy of the larger-than-life, Texas-born politician. His legacy in civil rights is admirable. His escalation of the Vietnam War remains controversial. Taken together, those two issues encapsulate the turbulent 1960s.
For complete program notes, visit Spring for Music, and as you listen below, feel free to participate in the online chat with host Fred Child and NPR Music.

Leon, who has staged Stick Fly, The Mountaintop and Fences on Broadway, will helm the five-week workshop of the musical that has a book by Todd Kreidler. The piece takes its title from a song on Shakur's second studio album.
Book writer Kreidler worked at Leon's True Colors Theatre in Atlanta, GA, and also penned a Broadway-aimed adaptation of Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?
The workshop will feature choreography by Tony Award winner Wayne Cilento (The Who's Tommy, Wicked).
Shakur died as the result of a 1996 gang-related drive-by shooting in Las Vegas. In 2010 the Library of Congress selected Shakur's "Dear Mama" to become part of its National Recording Registry. He also appeared in the films "Poetic Justice" and "Above the Rim." His albums include "2Pacalypse Now," "Me Against the World," "All Eyez on Me," "Until the End of Time" and "Pac's Life."
