Water is definitely a good one. Also, ginger is supposed to work (never worked with me, but it's worth a go, and it's a good excuse for keeping a packet of ginger biscuits next to you constantly).

Lots of water, paracetamol/ibuprofen and a nice lie down in a dark room.

lol, the hormones you produce during sex are meant to relieve headaches - never relieved my bfs though. OTher than that, water, lemonade works for me. Fresh air, if you're inside with your haid in a book, take a walk to the corner shop or in teh garden or something. erm, solpadine headache tabs are good,

If you have no-one to have sex with, masturbation works(at least it does for me)

try wetting a cloth with cold water (and squeeze the water out obviously) then go lie down and put it on your forehead.. it does wonders!

My reccomendation would be a painkiller- i'm sure you know which is most effective for you, a BREAK from revision when you don't even try and an early night. Sometimes a soak in the bath can help too.

you can get these strips (called kool and soothe or something along those lines) and they are cooling strips with gel in that you can stick on your head or on the back of your neck, and along with some paracetamol and lots of water, they are wonderful!
