by Alix Cohen - Jan 14, 2015
The extremely personable Cheyenne Jackson landed in Cafe Carlyle last night as if on the moon.

Nigel Wilson column.
When I returned to the region in 2005 I was fired up about making a real difference to my company's North-East operations.
For anyone in business development, the first port of call is always to look for experienced sales people with a proven track record.
My search took me far beyond where I expected to look, culminating in me effectively importing two sales people to the region ( one from France, the other from London.
I was left asking myself the question, was my inability to find sales people in the region an issue for my company or an issue in the wider market place?
Speaking with other business heads, it swiftly became clear that this was a problem facing a number of companies in the North-East.
Shortly afterwards, I attended the Regional Economic Forum conference, where a simple question was asked, 'How can the region grow?'
In the simplest of terms, the easiest way to achieve this is for us to sell more of what we make.
However, if the region is to grow, it needs a world-class sales force to compete in the global market place.
I began exploring this further with flagship businesses across the North-East.
Each company has its own issues, however fundamentally, each company felt that to achieve their aspirations, they needed a sales force of sufficient numbers, with the right skills and management.
For a big business, building a successful sales force is a costly issue, for a small business it can be the difference between life and death.
If we are to begin to address the region's needs for sales people, there are five key questions we need to find answers to.
Firstly, how do we make selling and sales management a career of choice? How do we ensure that managing directors and sales managers are armed with the skills to recruit and drive a successful sales force? Do we have the correct numbers of sales people in the region? Are they of the right skill level? And how do we benchmark to ensure that sales training companies offer true value for money?
Successful sales teams are a key element of a successful business, if we view the region as a large business, we need to have a highly motivated, quality sales force to ensure that success.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6
Everyone who has ever written for the Huffington Post, listened to Gene Sperling talk about tennis, or means the senior senator from Illinois when they use the term "Dick," knows full well that the Bush White House and its Republican allies on Capitol Hill will put aside principles anytime adherence to principle stands in the way of achieving political goals.
So it is going to take a bit more analysis than the norm to understand why the President won't fire Donald Rumsfeld; why congressional Republicans are challenging the Administration's position on military tribunals and electronic surveillance; and why the Justice Department is allowing the investigation of Tom DeLay and others to continue.
Unfortunately, we don't have time for such analysis, because President Bush is about to re-start his banging of the security drum with his 9:30 am ET Cabinet meeting and, then, his 1:45 pm ET remarks in the East Room of the White House on suspected terrorist detainees.
ABC News' Karen Travers reports, "President Bush will give the third speech in this latest round on the war on terrorism. The President plans to discuss his Administration's approach to the question of how and where to try prisoners held at Guantanamo Bay and he will submit legislation to the Hill on this issue. A White House official said yesterday that the Administration has been working with Members of Congress on proposed legislation since June 29, when the Supreme Court ruled in the case of Hamdan v. Rumsfeld that the President does not have the authority to order military tribunals for detainees at Guantanamo Bay. The President will likely discuss how his Administration's policies are keeping the American people safe and why it's necessary to have a way to keep terrorists off the streets and a way to bring them to justice, a White House official said."
ABC News' Jessica Yellin adds that "Bush's audience will be Cabinet members, 9/11 families, people from think tanks, first responders, former Administration members, and conservative opinion leaders."
Today's Democratic pre-buttal comes at 11:30 am ET in the Senate Radio and TV gallery from Sens. Schumer (D-NY) and Menendez (D-NJ) who plan to discuss how "Bush Republican policies have failed to secure America, failed to end the war in Iraq, and failed to bring terrorists to justice."
(Before Schumer does the partisan Blue-meat thing, he'll join Rep. Peter King (R-NY) in bipartisan fashion at 10:15 am ET to promote their plan to have President Bush proclaim September 11 as a day of national voluntary service.)
The Senate reconvenes at 9:45 am ET. At that time the Senate will be in a period of morning business for up to 30 minutes and will then resume consideration of HR 5631 the Defense appropriations bill. The Senate will recess from 12:30 pm ET -2:15 pm ET to accommodate weekly policy luncheons. (Stakeouts galore to follow.)
Sen. Clinton does her bipartisan thing today too. Sens. Clinton (D-NY) and Sununu (R-NH) join Reps. Peter King (R-NY) and Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) to call for passage of their bipartisan legislation to improve the child safety features in new vehicles at 11:30 am ET.
Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), members of the Congressional Black Caucus, and a panel of experts hold a 1:00 pm ET roundtable discussion on voter protection in Washington, DC.
Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-MD) holds his weekly pen and pad briefing with reporters at 12:30 pm ET.

Battle Royale: The Min-Maxer vs. The Conceptual Creator
When I first began playing MMOGs in the early 21st century I entered Everquest without a single clue as to what I was doing or what I was supposed to be doing. I spent about three hours killing skeletons and snakes outside of the Dwarven city, and dying repeatedly because I couldnÂt grasp why I had to stay close to that area and not go venturing out on my own. I was a Ânoob for the lack of a better term. Heck by most accounts, I would probably still be a noob today. But I had fun then, even with my lack of knowledge.
As time went on, I learned more and more about game mechanics in Everquest, and especially with World of Warcraft, my first true love of the genre. I learned what stats boosted what skills, and what gear I needed to achieve the highest amount of damage against the dastardly trolls in Stranglethorn Vale. The game became less about just playing, and more about playing well about using my character to his fullest potential.
IÂve been both types of player this editorial seeks to address. IÂve been the Conceptual Creator, leveling a character and designing his skills and gear based on my imagination with little regard to what is ÂbestÂ. My hunter in WoW (yep, a noob hunter) used a staff as his melee weapon for the longest time. IÂve also been the Min-Maxer with three different sets of gear in my bags for different combat situations. IÂve written out my desired stats and used search engines to find the best gear possible for that outcome. But is there a Âbetter way to playÂ? Does it really matter if you have the optimal build if youÂre having fun whatever way you play?
In Champions Online, this disparity between play-styles seems more pronounced than in most games on the market today. The reasoning behind this is pretty simple: the character creator in Champions allows you to do precisely whatever you want. You can be a werewolf clown with the powers of fire, ice, and giant laser-beams coming out of your eyeballs if you feel like thatÂs the way you want to play.
But there are folks who would see such a way of playing as folly. They would advise you to stick to one or two power sets at the most, and to pick this advantage or this super-stat because they lead to having the most reliable damage output in the game. TheyÂll tell you that picking a super-stat that doesnÂt coincide with your main power-set is crazy talk and while that it may be, it doesnÂt mean that thereÂs only one way to do things.
Fair enough, in CO those players that focus on doing whatÂs optimum will generally have an easier time in their fights, but the same could be said of any game. Those players who focus on getting the Âright gear and the right skills are always going to have it easier than those who are reaching towards a certain build concept. But those players that prefer to use their imagination and creativity in the creation of their heroes will be plenty viable as well. Now, IÂm not advising anyone to overdo it and pick one power from every set. In that case, there is no real concept and certainly no min-maxing. But I think itÂs worth mentioning that I currently have a Supernatural/Strength hero with a Super Dexterity and Super Constitution thatÂs doing just fine and IÂm really only building on the concept of a werewolf with some vampire-like powers.
I even defeated Foxbat in the news studio just fine the other day with thanks to Resurgence (healing powers are smart no matter who you are). There is no real wrong way to play Champions Online. Before the now infamous launch day patch, IÂm sure it was much easier to just make your character in any old way you wanted without much forethought. Now the gameÂs gotten a bit more difficult, but Wolfenstein (thatÂs me) is proof that you can build on a concept and still succeed in kicking bad guy butt.
The moral of the story is simple. If you want to build your character in the most efficient way possible, go for it. If you want to make your hero a hybrid of three different power sets based on an idea you had in the 3rd grade for a comic book, then do it. And heck, you might even find some synergies between sets that make such a character a joy to play. DonÂt listen to anyone telling you how to play your hero. The choice is yours, and there is no wrong choice.

It's not quite as big as playing at the White House, but Gov. Martin O'Malley's Celtic rock band has another high-profile gig coming up.
O'Malley's March has been booked on June 17 with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra as part of Maryland's War of 1812 bicentennial commemoration.
The concert at the Joseph Meyerhoff Symphony Hall in Baltimore is being held in conjunction with the Star-Spangled Sailabration, a maritime festival in Baltimore's Inner Harbor that organizers say will include more than 40 tall ships and naval vessels.
O'Malley is a War of 1812 buff, and it's almost certain that his band's set will include "Battle of Baltimore," a song penned by the governor about Baltimore residents who stood up to invading British troops.
O'Malley's March had its heyday during O'Malley's tenure as a councilman and mayor of Baltimore, but the semi-retired band continues to surface several times a year.
O'Malley aides who once questioned whether his side career detracted from the governor's gravitas have come to see it as a healthy outlet for him — though his critics still argue that O'Malley's music diverts attention from his official duties.
In March, the band played at the White House as part of an extended St. Patrick's Day celebration in honor of Irish Prime Minister Edna Kenny.

Gallbladder Attack Remedies
Last Modified on May 22, 2015
Natural Relief for Gallbladder Pain
Few things are scarier than a gallbladder attack, but once the shock goes away and you realize what is going on, a few natural remedies from home can quickly relieve the pain of a gallbladder attack. After that, a gallbladder cleanse or other home remedy can help you eliminate the causes of your digestive issues.
The gallbladder is a small digestive organ located on your right side beneath the liver and feeding into the small intestine. The organ's role is to store bile produced by the liver and release it into the duodenum as needed for intestinal digestion of fats and protein. When the organ goes bad, gallbladder symptoms include abdominal pain, pain in the right shoulder, nausea, and loss of appetite. All are the result of inflammation of the gallbladder, usually after a gallstone forms and blocks the bile duct (cholecystitis). After a few hours of gallbladder symptoms, the attack will often subside on its own. However, in some cases gallbladder surgery becomes necessary.
Natural Alternatives to Gallbladder Surgery
A well-balanced diet and keeping a healthy weight can help you to prevent gallbladder issues. Some food allergies can also lead to gallstones, so an elimination diet may help you determine the cause of your gallbladder issues. In the event of an attack, Earth Clinic users have reported that they can stop gallbladder pain with a simple apple cider vinegar in apple juice treatment. Over the long-term, milk thistle supplements reputedly offer help, as well as several home remedies to be found below.

2 Types of Gallbladder Attacks 1 0
Approval Ratings
[WARNING!] I have gall bladder attacks. People must differentiate between 2 types. One type is due to gallstones and the other due to a sphincter problem called sphincter of oddi. If there are gallstones a flush might help, I don't know, since I have no gallstones based on scans. I do have spasms in my sphinter of oddi, which is a spasm in the spincter or tubes that do not allow the bile to release. WARNING if you have this particularsphincter problem fats will make it worse. Do NOT a flush involving oil or fats of anytime, it will put you in the ER. I was taking fish oil and flax oil and my gall bladder was killing me. This is because fats cause the bile to build up because they are needed for fat digestion. When you build up fats and can't release the bile because of a spasm in the sphincter that will not let the bile flow out into the digestive system, the gall bladder overfills and backs into the pancreas at times. If you do an oil flush or increase fats pain will increase!!!! Removal of gall bladder does not help this because the sphinter is not removed with the gall bladder and in fact, gall bladder removal will often make this condition worse. I don't know the cure, however, my gall bladder and pancreatic pain calmed almost completely when I stopped the flax and fish oil and cut down on fats in general. Now if anyone knows how to get the gallbladder sphincter to relax from spasm and release the bile, WITHOUT using fats or oils, I would love to know the answer so Please POST it.

02/25/2014Dear Jewel51,
I read your post and think, "Lobelia! " It is an anti-spasmodic herb and we have used it with success in our house for a number of things, though not for gall bladder issues. We have used it for asthma and for suspected appendicitis.
You can buy the loose herb and make a tincture of an oil infusion. I would use this externally over the area where you have pain. It absorbs readily into the skin. You may be able to buy a tincture or oil. I can give more detail on making the infusion or tincture if you want to try that. You may also be able to take it internally and have it work, but be careful as a small amount of lobelia is a relaxant and too much is a stimulant. If your body is toxic, a small amount internally can cause vomiting.
I also would not be surprised to see a charcoal poultice or castor oil pack help you in this situation. I have used both for pain in the gall bladder area as well as for other things. There is information about both on this website.
Do you know if any foods are irritating your gall bladder? I know certain ones do mine, especially coffee, sadly!
Let us know what you find out. I hope you get relief soon.

02/25/2014Good information about the two types of gallbladder attacks. It is easy to just assume stone related. Won't milk thistle get the bile flowing?Ky, Usa
02/26/2014Jewels51: To strengthen the Liver/Gallbladder and increase the flow of bile take Triple Strengthen Lecithin and Dr. Christopher's Liver/Gallbladder Formula. There are many herbal suppliers w/ different names to this formula. The one I used to take was called Liveron. An internet search should produce some good results, but if not report back and I can give you the list of the home made formula I use.
I also occasionally use lemon Water to help open things up down there.Replied by Mary Lou

03/11/2014To Jules51, For your spasms of sphincter of Oddi. Try 1-2 tsp of Bitters (Angostura) in water. It is in the grocery stores aisles with the drink mixes, cheapest at Walmart. It is an antispasmodic and antiflatulent. I swear by it for an upset stomach and gallbladder pain. I know it saved me from an ER visit twice in the past 20 years when I was doubled over in pain and nausea so badly I could barely speak or chew a Tums. Each time was due to meals with hidden fat, which I normally avoid. It tastes like an unsweetened coca cola, has a bit of alcohol, 44.7% by volume. Worth a try, I know I would have been in ER both times. When I can't talk, I am sick! hahahaReplied by Erika

03/20/2014I came across this site when looking for feedback on something I discovered by accident. I too have to watch fats in my diet because of gallbladder pain.
Recently I began having plain yogurt in the mornings mixed with a little honey (for flavor). I have been amazed at the positive impact it has had on my digestion and my gallbladder. Hope this helps.Replied by Rebecca

04/14/2014I found that my attacks were brought on my a combo of stress (huge!!!! ), not drinking enough water, and eating a large meal late in the evening with lots of salad and dairy fats, my favorite combo. Too hard to digest. Under advice of a naturopath I take lecithin, vitamin C, fish oil, and GB 6 which is a chinese herb blend. I ditched dairy and coffee and drink green tea, which is a calmative, and I have been symptom and pain free for a year. And, I'm healthier than I've been in ages. My GB was the canary in the coal mine for me. I find that stress really triggers spasms. If I feel spasms coming on, I sip a little cider vinegar in juice, and I take a percocet which my primary doc prescribed in case of attack. In addition to helping with the sudden onset of debilitating pain, it has muscle relaxing properties that can help calm the spasming before it gets full-blown.Replied by Rebecca

04/14/2014Rebecca, Can you tell us the ingredients in the GB6, Chinese Herbal blend.Replied by Rebecca
04/15/2014Rebecca, it contains china berry fruit and other herbs; it's supposed to slacken the sphincter of oddi and contract the gall bladder. I notice my gall bladder feeling "busy" or twingey when I take it; the goal is to keep things moving and/or dissolve and expel stones.Replied by Cindy

06/23/2014I have been on HRT since age 39 (early menopause) to reduce risk of osteoporosis. Can anyone tell me the effect of taking 3 Tbs ACV daily on my bone density? Does the ACV have to be downed all at once or can I mix it w/ a liter of water and sip all day? What does it do to tooth enamel?Replied by Mikemo
06/28/2014ACV/apple juice remedy: Be advised this does not work in all situations. If your gallbladder is inflamed or has a wall thickening issue, this remedy MAKES ATTACK MUCH, MUCH worse. I tried it and ended up in ER 2 hours later.....Replied by Phil

07/18/2014Consider adding magnesium to your diet. Magnesium is needed for muscle relaxation, while calcium is needed for muscle contraction. Muscle spasms may indicate magnesium deficiency. Dark leafy greens contain magnesium, since it is part of the chlorophyll molecule. You could also use a supplement such as magnesium malate tablets, which readily decomposes in the digestive tract into a bio-available form of magnesium and malic acid, the latter being found in apples.Replied by Joy
08/17/2014Try magnesium. I'm in facebook group called Magnesium Advocacy Group and learned there that magnesium acts as a muscle relaxant. I get mine from a simple teaspoon of milk of magnesia 3 to 4 x a day.KY

09/21/2014Can some of you give examples of fatty foods you eat that trigger the gallbladder attacks? I realize it will differ from person to person, but, at this point I am afraid of what to consume so I don't get an unexpected attack.
For instance, salmon is fatty, as are potato chips (I really don't eat them, but this is for contrast of example), olive oil and or salad dressing? Chicken skin? Stuff like that...
Can we get a list going of what people have problems with?
Thank you!

10/14/2014Organic extra virgin olive oil, coconut oil and grape-seed oil are best. Olive oil is an inexpensive and effective body lotion. Coconut oil has a very high flash point which makes it best for cooking. Some brands have very little nutty taste while others are pretty strong.
A more serious threat from fish is toxins such as cadmium, mercury and DDT. Avoid farm raised seafood. Safest fish are Alaskan wild caught salmon, northern mackerel (not King) and halibut. These are also rich in essential omega fats 3,6,7,8 and 9.

11/01/2014Fried foods seem to be my big trigger. But, I have found that when I feel an attack coming on, usually within thirty minutes of eating, I can drink two bottles of water, quickly, and it will greatly reduce the pain and it will eventually go away all together. Short of that, I don't eat much in large portions.Replied by Douglas
11/22/2014I experienced a gallbladder attack back in March of 2011, 48hrs after quitting smoking. Had the typical ultrasound & hida scan works, all was well, so I figured it could be a withdrawal reaction. In my past 46 years, I've been in the hospital overnight only once in 2004. Now in the past month, I've been admitted twice...
1) 103.7 fever & sepsis, at which time I had mild lower left abdomen pain/ diverticulitis, but reason for fever & sepsis...Unsure?
2) Nov 9th had a one time episode diarrhea & nausea which caused a fainting episode, although the fainting is expected to be related to straining/vagus nerve, but still no diagnosis.
Now, three nights ago had my gallbladder attack...My question is: Is it possible to have a gallbladder issue w/ no painful symptoms? I mean could my 2 previous hospital visits be related to gallbladder?Replied by Suseeq

01/25/2015What seems to bring on my gall bladder attacks are: hot melted cheese, heavy creme, spicy mexican food, hot chocolate.
Best remedies: organic apple cider with apple cider vinegar, warmed up but not hot.
1 apple grated and mixed with 1-2 inch grated ginger root. (Both grated with a micro-plane grater)
20 drops of peppermint oil in warm peppermint tea.
Use one of these combinations but if you don't feel much better you can try any of the other remedies.

It was A+E who diagnosed that I had gallbladder problems. Lots of anti-biotics and Tramodol!! I have a very good diet and exercise regularly. I read article as looking for more of a dietary solution. Found some apple cider vinegar in cupboard and mixed with "robinson" apple and blackcurrant (Boys like it! ). I could not believe it! It worked almost immediately! 2-4 minutes!

My youngest sister and I had adhesions so bad it squeezed our gallbladder in a very small size. mine was larger then a golf ball! ..went to local, backwoods, ER a few times when I was having attacks and they did the same stupid testing to see if I had stone ...hello you don't need stones to have attacks! Makes me mad all the testing I went through and money spent just to be wrongly diagnosed. My oldest sister went through the same ordeal. Please if they tell you you don't have stones so nothing is wrong ...go to a different hospital or dr and get a second opinion.

05/20/2015[BETTER BUT NOT CURED] There are a couple of herbs with anti-spasmodic properties: dill, fennel, caraway seed, cumin, peppermint in lesser degree. They are all relatives, except peppermint. When I feel pain coming in I take 1/3 of tea spoon of caraway seeds and chew them, then swallow. It helps to take the spasms off and does not interfere with digestion. The ACV works also, but the mechanics are different, it reduces need for bile, so it does not try to get out of the gallbladder, so no pain, but you need bile to digest fats and proteins.
There is an over the counter medication in Europe, called No-Shpa. It is widely used to alleviate gallstone attacks and spasms. I do not know if it exists here, the active ingredient is dropaverine.
I use ACV with meats, just pour over a piece. And take some caraway seeds in the end of the meal. Also, add caraway seeds in soups and other dishes.
Just my 5c, :)

05/13/2015Apple cider vinegar is just plain good for SO much. My daughter had kidney stones and I gave her 1/4 cup fresh lemon and 1/4 cup olive oil. It dissolved the stones and she tinkled sand.

[YEA] I've had terrible lower-abdomen pain about once every 6 months for almost 15 years and I had given up since neither Dr's, ER rooms, GI's Etc. could find or diagnose what it was (although because of the symptoms I suspected GB stones or "muds", although my pain is exactly centered on my abdomen 4" above my navel, as opposed to the "typical" GB attack which they tell me is towards the right side.
Anyway, as I said, I had given up and figured I'd have to live with this recurring pain which strikes in the middle of the night, lasts from 3 to 4 Hrs (8 to 9 pain-strength in a scale of 10). I'd just curl in a ball on the floor and press my belly with pillows until it passed...
But last night, as I was starting to feel some pain coming, I quickly googled "gallbladder pain remedies" and came accross this site, so I decided to give a try to the Apple Cider Vinegar and mixed 2 teaspoons of it plus 1 tspn of lime juice in an 8 oz glass of warm water and gulped it down. To my amazement, within 15 minutes I was pain free and able to go back to sleep!

[SIDE EFFECTS] Had a gallbladder attack last week and it subsided in a few hours.
Had my second a couple of days ago and was miserable. That's what brought me here.
ACV made me throw up. It dulled the pain a little. Had to drive myself to the ER as I was pacing like a cat. Couldn't sleep, sit or lay down. The drive was horrific. ER was empty at 3am and they got me right in and rushed me to surgery. It was the gallbladder and it was infected. I don't suggest anyone self medicate as my experience could have been fatal. The Dr's determined my condition with an ultrasound and blood work. Even they were not overly concerned until those results came back. I could have saved myself a lot of pain had I went sooner.Posted by Jonnygouda (Madison, Wi) on 11/22/2014
[YEA] Thank you folks. My wife came home with a serious gall bladder attack (she blamed it on eating too many fatty foods lately) and she was in so much pain she was throwing up and crying. I felt helpless because it just wouldn't stop. In a fit of desperation I typed "gall bladder attack remedy" into Google and up I came with this site. I keep apple cider vinegar on hand for my heart burn but didn't have apple juice so we used cranberry instead. It didn't take 45 minutes before she began to feel relief. Not perfect but it backed off enough to allow her to go to bed (she didn't drink all of the juice, so maybe if she had the pain would have disappeared even more). This really appears to work an tomorrow I'll have her drink some more juice and avoid fatty foods. Awesome site, folks!Posted by Dar (Bedford, Pa) on 10/20/2014
[YEA] The apple cider vinegar and apple juice combo really helped my gallbladder pain. Yesterday I was ready to go to the ER but it calmed it so much. I did it again this morning and will do it again this evening to make sure I got all the toxins out. I would recommend this to anyone!!Replied by Lucia

11/16/2014[YEA] First, thank you to everyone for some of the best advice ever given! For approx. six months, I have had attacks after eating various types of foods. There was no rhyme or reason to the frequency of the occurrences and I previously had no GI issues. By process of elimination (after an attack) I dropped certain foods from my diet. Still the attacks continued. Pain traveled from the gall bladder area to the back and shoulders. Scary. Also scarier, the fact that I have no insurance. Somehow, I found your site. After reading several posts suggesting ACV and apple juice, I decided to give it a go. Since I had neither of the ingredients at the time, I mixed cranberry juice and rice wine vinegar and within 30 minutes, the pain subsided. The next day, I went immediately and purchased the apple juice and ACV. I plan to keep these items as staples forevermore.
Thank you again.Replied by Grace

12/14/2014Does anyone know if this remedy helps AFTER gallbladder surgery? Had surgery last week after avoiding it for 15 years and getting progressively worse. Having pain right in gallbladder location, and wondering if ACV is appropriate this soon after surgery?Replied by Lj

02/15/2015Over 10 years ago, I had a gall bladder attack on a quiet new years eve that I stayed home with my family. The attach hurt so much every time I laid down that I got up and kissed my baby boys good-bye because I thought I was having a heart attack. I got out all my medical reference books and read up and realized it wasn't a heart attack, but I could not lay down and sleep.
My husband took the boys to church the next day by himself because I didn't have any sleep and hurt too bad. His mom suggested it might be my gall bladder and didn't my mom have gall bladder problems in the past. I called mom and sure enough, she described my symptoms to a tea. After the ultrasound showed a gall stone the size of an quail egg, I had surgery. For several months after, I still would have pain, like I had a gall bladder, even though I didn't.
So keep up with the Apple cider vinegar and apple juice .... or flax seed tea to help ease the pain (antispasmodic) even if you don't have a gall bladder, because your liver is still trying to send the message to the brain....I need some help to digest this fatty food in the small intestine.Replied by Jim G

02/16/2015I had the same exact thing happen to me but was misdiagnosed many times. After I had my gall bladder removed the pain came back a few months later to the point I couldn't move. It turned out I had acute pancreatitis which led to a 3-4 day stay in the hospital. You may need to have this checked out!! It is very dangerous!Posted by Rox (Texas, US) on 09/27/2014
[YEA] I've experienced gallbladder pains twice a year for the past 5 yrs. The pain is unbearable from the right side of my stomach and all of my back. No sitting position seems to work. I have been experiencing pain for the past 2 days hoping it would go on its own. I came across this site after I just couldn't handle the pain anymore and found this god sent remedy. By some miracle I had all ingredients on hand. It's been 30 min since I've drank this holy concoction and my pain has subsided. I'll make sure to have these on stock and drink everyday! Thank you to all who have posted.Posted by Richard (Miami, Florida, US) on 08/27/2014
[YEA] I have used apple cider vinegar for so many different purposes. Besides helping alkalize the body, I have found that it works great for people who are going through a full blown gallbladder attack.
The recipe that I have used is adding one or two tablespoons in an 8 ounce glass of organic apple juice at least 3 times a day. This really works miracles. But it does not take care of the actual cause which are gallstones or congestion. Only works if you are going through some gallbladder symptoms or as a preventive measure.Posted by Mitch (Usa) on 07/31/2014
[YEA] Apple Cider Vinegar in Apple Juice for Gallbladder Attack
Another believer after unbearable pain. This natural remedy is truly amazing. Last time we took olive oil and lemon which seems counterintuitive now. Is it too soon to drink the beet apple cure smoothy cleanse? Also wondered why Dr Oz suggested a spoonful of ACV every day. Might not be a bad idea after this episode. Thanks to all that posted so I could get relief and sleep!Posted by K (Delray Beach, Fl) on 07/25/2014
[YEA] Gallbladder Attack Treatment - it really works!!!
I've been sick for 4 days, and can't go to the hospital. This is nothing short of miraculous. I drank the ACV in fresh apple cider, and within 30 minutes, pain started to subside. With next glass, I fell asleep and woke up with NO PAIN!!!! Does this mean it is not a valve problem? I hope so, because I plan to proceed with the cleanse tonight unless someone out there has had a bad experience or a reason to not do the cleanse just yet.Posted by Govols (New York) on 07/21/2014
[YEA] I have suffered with occasional (4 to 8 times per year) gallbladder pain since I was a child. As a teen I was hospitalized due to the pain and was told that the issue was just gas pressure. Later testing in my thirties proved that my gallbladder functions at about only 10% of what it should. After this I was referred to a surgeon who told me that doing the surgery was no problem, he did this surgery every day. He said 85% of his patients are "cured." However, about 15% experience side effects. One of the side effects is lifelong chronic diarrhea. So, I could either take the chance with the surgery or watch the fat content in what I consumed. I chose the latter and the surgeon gave me a reaffirming nod;-)
This past weekend I sensed another flare up as the pressure and pain slowly increased under the right side of my rib cage. I drugged up last night with anything I could find (over-the-counter) to knock me out and help me sleep. I woke up feeling better. However, after lunch the pain came roaring back with a vengeance. I had to leave work early. On the way home I drove by our local health food store to see if they had any insights (they always do a GREAT job) but they were closed, bummer! Got home and began taking anything I could find to help ease the pain (again, over-the-counter only.) Then I thought I would search the internet for "natural cures." That's when I found this article on this site.
I found organic Apple Cider Vinegar and mixed 3 teaspoons with 8 oz of apple juice and sipped the concoction until it was gone. Over the course of about an hour and fifteen minutes I went from wanting to curl up in fetal position due to the pain to feeling just some mild pressure. Not sure how this will turn out BUT this solution has been RADICALLY more effective than anything else I have tried for the last 30 years. Now I'm sipping an a second batch just to see what happens.
It is absolutely unbelievable. I cannot say if it will work for anyone else, but it has truly been a God-send for me. I wish you all good health, body soul, and mind.Posted by Bobe (Atlanta, Ga) on 06/19/2014
[YEA] I had my first gallbladder attack back in January of this year. I went to an urgent care center where the MD diagnosed the problem within seconds. He offered me a shot, which I accepted, and it stopped the attack in less that 15 minutes. This morning, I woke up with excruciating pain on my right side. At first I wasn't sure if it was my gallbladder or perhaps appendicitis. After moving around for about 30 minutes, the pain definitely centered higher in my abdomen. I was sweating a bit so I decided to also take my temp. When I saw that my temp was normal, I became convinced that it was my gallbladder again. I remembered reading about ACV on this site back in January. Faced with deciding to go to the ER, or trying this remedy, I decided to try it. Sure enough, within 15 minutes after drinking the ACV with apple juice, the symptoms (PAIN) went away! Someone asked in their post if ACV pills would work. I've not heard of ACV pills and I didn't notice any reply. Does anyone know? I'm about to leave for an extended trip in 2 weeks and I would love to figure out if I can have an emergency remedy in my back pocket. Thank You!Replied by Marie

10/14/2014[YEA] Although pill form of ACV may be better than nothing, I believe the liquid is superior. It doesn't have to dissolve before reaching your stomach. It has live Mother enzymes and is full of active anti-oxidants. Having a small bottle in your luggage wouldn't be a problem at the airports.Posted by Truckwife (Ranger, Tx.) on 06/08/2014
[YEA] Hi, I'm 57 yrs old and have high blood pressure controlled by medication and 220 Cholesterol. I have been reading this thread for a few days now, and am going to start the process today after waking up yet again with a painful attack. The first attack I had was about 7 years ago, of course, not knowing what it was, but since then they have become more frequent. The attack I had this morning was the same as usual, 6 hours after fat intake. But this time I drank 8oz of apple juice with 1 tbs of ACV and 45 min. later I was able to go back to sleep. Usually, I would be up for the next 6 hours doubled over in pain wondering whether I should go to the ER. I don't have insurance so I just deal with it! Since the AJ and ACV that I got from another website, worked I'm going to assume these attacks are gallbladder related. What God gave me, I'm not giving up without a fight!! My only concern is the affect on my blood pressure. Any thoughts??KY
06/09/2014This confers my suspicion that liver/gall problems can cause hypertension thru reduction of blood flow. You will also need to support your liver (Milk Thistle, Turmeric, and Artichoke herbs) while cleansing the gallbladder. During this time your BP will probably drop so you must take a BP reading daily and adjust (lower) the medication accordingly.Replied by Truckwife
Ranger, Texas
06/09/2014Thank you for your reply.. but I have had BP problems for 20 years, so not likely it is related to my gallbladder problems. What do I need to do with Milk Thistle, Turmeric and Artichoke ??KY
06/11/2014Truckwife: I have found a direct correlation between liver and/or kidney problems and hypertension. This seems to be an issue of blood, urine, and bile flow.
Be careful w/ your logic. If you were to, say, begun having gallbladder issues at the beginning of 2014 and conclude that for many yrs prior there was no (noticeable) problem. One can have gallstones for many yrs and worsening all the time until finally there is a crisis.
The herbs I suggested increase bile flow; increased bile flow reduces gallstones.Replied by Truckwife
Ranger, Texas
06/11/2014Timh...So If I understand you correctly, my high BP could be from my system not working properly and I should take Milk Thistle as a daily routine? Does Milk Thistle work alone or only with the other herbs you mentioned? Will it reduce the gallstones I may already have or prevent new ones from forming? ThanksKY
06/12/2014Yes, these recommendations should help to some degree almost immediately as well as long-term. My first symptoms of gallstones were irregular heart beat and heart pain which were totally relieved by the flush.
The liver herbs I mentioned are predominately used for protective regenerative effects specifically for hepatic function. Dr Christopher developed an herbal formula specifically to improve liver/gall function and increasing bile flow. Taking a supplement of either Glycine or Taurine will increase bile production. All this will help digestion and elimination. Also recommended to reduce or prevent cholesterol gallstone is Lecithin and Choline/Inositol. The Christopher formula was once marketed as Liveron but is now called something else like Liver Tone or something (not sure). Also big on the herb list for liver/gall as well as kidney is Dandelion Root, Burdock Root, and Yellowdock Root. Cranberry and Parsley are the top 2 herbals for kidney problems.Replied by Truckwife
Ranger, Texas
06/14/2014Well, I am going to be doing the last part of the gallbladder cleanse tomorrow. One question tho, is it ok that I have been drinking my usual quart of water along with the quart of apple juice every day for the last 6 days? I was starting to think that maybe the water is diluting the apple juice and therefore preventing it from softening any possible gallstones. And advice is welcome....Thanks!

Rescue at Pea Island.
On that night back in October 1896, the worst storm in almost fifty years was battering the North Carolina coast. Moments earlier, one of Etheridge's surfmen, Theodore Meekins, had spotted a faint red glimmer in the distance. Could it have been a flare from a ship in distress?
Etheridge quickly lit a flare and held it high over his head until the flame died out. Then he saw it--a dull red light flickered to the south. That could mean only one thing: shipwreck.
The Keeper of the Station
Rescuing ships in distress was nothing new for Etheridge. He had been keeper of this lifesaving station since 1880. Etheridge had grown up swimming, fishing, and boating on nearby Roanoke Island. He eventually became known as one of the best surfmen and lifesavers in North Carolina. But Etheridge was also known for something else: he was the Life-Saving Service's first African American station chief.
White surfmen refused to work under Etheridge. So Etheridge and the Life-Saving Service recruited a crew of African American rescuers to work with him.
Etheridge's men trained for ten hours a day, seven days a week. They swam in the rough surf and patrolled the beach. They performed life-saving drills and tugged their 1,500-pound surfboat and equipment for miles through the sand. But the wreck on the night of October 1896 put all of the crew's practice to the test.
Rescuing the Wreck
As soon as Etheridge and Meekins spotted the red flare, they woke up the other five surfmen on duty. The crew quickly hitched up a team of mules. Then they pushed and pulled their surfboat and equipment cart down the beach for two miles.
"The storm was raging fearfully," Etheridge later wrote, "and ... the team was often brought to a standstill by the sweeping current." But the crew kept trudging through the knee-deep sand and icy water. Finally, they spotted the wreck.
The schooner E.S. Newman had blown aground 30 yards offshore. The storm had ripped off the ship's sails and demolished her deck. Now the battered ship was rolling and tossing in the surf. All nine of the passengers and crew, including the captain's wife and three-year-old child, were trapped onboard.
"It seemed impossible under such circumstances to render any assistance," Etheridge later wrote.
But unless someone did something soon, the passengers would probably be swept out to sea, die from exposure, or be crushed when the Newman broke apart in the surf. So Etheridge came up with a daring plan.
His men would try to swim to the ship. Meekins and another surfman volunteered for the first attempt. They lashed themselves together with a rope. Then they grabbed one end of a lifesaving line while the rest of the crew held the other end of the line securely to the beach.
Meekins and the other surfman slowly waded farther out into the chilly water. They struggled through the currents and against the undertow in total darkness.
Onboard the Newman, the captain lowered a ladder over the side of the broken ship. Finally the surfmen reached the ship.
"The voice of gladden[ed] hearts greeted the arrival of the station crew," Etheridge later wrote.
One passenger climbed carefully down the ladder. Meekins knotted the end of the rope around him. Slowly they carried him through the churning water to safety. Then two other surfmen headed back to the Newman.
Next, they carried the child to shore. Then they returned to rescue the captain's wife. Again and again, the surfmen took turns swimming in pairs through the sea to the wreck. After six grueling hours, the Newman was destroyed, but all nine passengers were safely onshore.
Life After the Rescue
The captain of the Newman was so grateful that he gave Etheridge and his crew the ship's name board. But for many years, this was the only award that the surfmen received. Pea Island Station was closed in 1947, and everyone seemed to forget the courageous crew.
Finally, in 1996 Etheridge and his men were awarded the Coast Guard's highest honor, the Gold Lifesaving Medal, for their "extreme and heroic daring." One hundred years after the Newman rescue, the men of the Pea Island Station were recognized for what they were--heroes.
Coming to the Crew's Rescue
Kate Burkart, an eighth-grader from North Carolina, helped to "rescue" the Pea Island crew. She wrote letters to her senator and President Clinton. With Coast Guard officer Stephen Rochon and graduate students David Wright and David Zoby, Burkart submitted a report to the Coast Guard about the crew. Their hard work paid off. Burkart was at the Navy Memorial when the Gold Lifesaving Medal was awarded to the Pea Island crew.

Mumbai can set their sights at the quarters for now. Wasim Jaffer played a masterful knock of 171 to help the 39-time Ranji champions secure the all-important first innings lead, and barring a miracle by Gujarat in the second innings, Mumbai are all set to advance to the next stage. At stumps, the hosts were 323 for five, taking a healthy lead of 79, and Abhishek Nayar holding fort with Suryakumar Yadav.
Jaffer, who has crossed 50 in every match this season but has failed to cash in, looked good for a double ton here. An outstanding one-handed diving catch by Samit Gohel at first slip off Rush Kalaria resulted in his downfall in the last hour of play. Gujarat, at that stage, had taken the second new ball.
"I was playing well in the previous matches but just wasn't getting a big score. Today, I was middling the ball well and was playing in my zone, so I'm happy I scored a century," said a satisfied Jaffer.
Resuming at 24 for one, Jaffer seemed poised for a big one as he stroked two boundaries in the second over of the day. Aditya Tare fell for 20 to Krushang Patel who pitched one full outside off. Tare went for the drive only to knick it to keeper Parthiv Patel. The dismissal didn't inhibit Jaffer as he cruised to his half-century.
The Gujarat bowlers were unable to extract help from the wicket, with even left-arm spinner Rakesh Dhruv, who's been Gujarat's best bowler this season, looking ineffective. Jaffer took a liking to Dhruv, lofting him over long-on for a six and hitting two more boundaries in the same over to bring up Mumbai's 100.
Post lunch, Parthiv went on the defensive — he had a third man, deep point, deep square-leg and deep fine-leg for Jaffer. Jaffer and Hiken Shah continued to milk the Gujarat bowlers for easy singles and hitting the odd boundary in between. Jaffer moved into the 90s quickly and notched up his ton with a glide to the third man fence.
Shah played a perfect second fiddle to Jaffer. They ensured Mumbai sailed past the Gujarat's first innings total of 244 right after tea. The 213-run partnership for the fourth wicket was finally broken by part-timer Samit Gohel, who cleaned up Shah for 82, but it was too little too late for Gujarat.

Lauryn Hill Charged With Failing to File Tax Returns
June 7 (Bloomberg) -- Lauryn N. Hill, the Grammy-award winning singer, was charged with failing to file three years of income tax returns with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.
Hill, of South Orange, New Jersey, was accused in federal court in Newark, New Jersey, of not filing returns for 2005, 2006 and 2007. She received $1.8 million in gross income in that period, primarily in music and movie royalties, according to the charges.
Hill faces a year in prison and a $100,000 fine on each of the three misdemeanor counts. She was charged in a criminal information, a document that often precedes a guilty plea. She's scheduled to appear in court in Newark on June 29, New Jersey U.S. Attorney Paul Fishman said today in a statement.
"Ms. Hill has been fully cooperating with the IRS's investigation for a number of years," her attorney, Nathan Hochman, said in a telephone interview.
Hill won two Grammy awards in 1996 as a member of the Fugees. Her album "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill" was named album of the year at the 1999 Grammy Awards. She also won awards then for best new artist, best rhythm and blues album, best R&B song and best female R&B vocal performance.
The case is U.S. v. Hill, 12-mj-6081, U.S. District Court, District of New Jersey (Newark).

Serial killer art raises free speech debate
By Daisuke Wakabayashi
BOSTON (Reuters) – An online auction of artwork by a serial
sex killer triggered outrage in Massachusetts on Tuesday where
lawmakers proposed to block criminals from profiting on what
they called "murderabilia," setting off a debate on free speech
rights of prisoners.
A colored pencil sketch of Jesus Christ kneeling in a
desert by Alfred Gaynor, a serial killer serving four life
sentences for sodomizing and choking to death four women, went
on sale on Tuesday on a Web site operated by a prisoner
advocacy group.
It was one of nearly 300 artworks offered for auction
through December 18 on The Fortune Society's Web site. If sold,
nearly all proceeds from the work entitled, "A Righteous Man's
Reward," will go to Gaynor, the group said.
Protests from the families of Gaynor's victims about the
possibility of a convicted murderer profiting from his criminal
celebrity prompted state Rep. Peter Koutoujian, a Democrat, to
submit a new variation of a "Son of Sam" law in the state
But the legislative proposal triggered its own debate over
the prisoners' constitutional right of free speech.
Marjorie Heins, a fellow at the Brennan Center for Justice
at New York University, said freedom of expression extends to
prisoners even if it causes emotional distress or offense to
the victim's families.
"It's too narrow to say 'it's just this one guy and he's a
creep so he shouldn't get any First Amendment rights.' Whether
it is a painting or other work produced, there is a social
interest in making it available to view it or read it," said
Heins, adding, "Prisoners are not deprived of constitutional
The artwork of America's most notorious killers — ranging
from pencil drawings by Charles Manson to a painting by
executed serial killer John Wayne Gacy — fetch hefty sums from
collectors of "murderabilia."
"We're taught in society that crime doesn't pay, but here
we are allowing crime to pay and it's sending the wrong message
to people," said Koutoujian, a former prosecutor.
Koutoujian said the new bill focuses on banning profit from
art or books based on the criminal's celebrity and not the
content itself.
Massachusetts is one of the few states without a "Son of
Sam" law that requires convicted criminals to give money earned
from book, movie or other deal to victims or to the state.
America's first such law was passed in New York after "Son
of Sam" serial killer David Berkowitz was offered big money for
his story. The U.S. Supreme Court struck down that law in 1991
but it was retooled and put back on the books in 1992.
There are more than 30 states with such laws that have been
unchallenged, mainly because they are so seldomly invoked.
The Supreme Judicial Court, Massachusetts' highest court,
said in 2002 that an earlier version of the law violated free
speech provisions in the state and federal constitutions.
Koutoujian, a former prosecutor, says the auction underlines
the need for the law.
Lana Wachniak, a professor at Kennesaw State University and
an expert on serial killer art, argues most serial killers use
art to promote a veneer of normalcy and do not care about the
profit from a potential sale.
The Fortune Society said its online and studio art show
draws work from a wide range of prisoners — not just killers
– and most items sell for less than $100.
"It's a misconception that we're selling this art for
thousands and thousands of dollars and that people are making
all these profits," said Kristen Kidder, project manager of The
Fortune Society's art show.
The paintings can be found at
