What do you rinse your brushes out with when you use oil paints?

I'm looking to do an oil painting, and the last time I did one was in highschool. And I can't remember what my art teacher gave me to rinse my brush out in between colors :S I know it wouldn't be water...would it have been paint thinner?

I'm using my boyfriends oil painting kit, and it also has this "Stand Oil" made from Linseed oil, it has a yellow tint, but when I put it on a piece of paper to test, it goes on clearish. What is it used for? Thinning the colors?
