Veteran wrestler Mick Foley is donating half the proceeds from his latest book to survivors of rape in Sierra Leone (through Child Fund International). The other half is being donated to RAINN. He’s also donating his time as an online counselor for RAINN:

They have my first name when they sign in. There are times when the [screen] goes dead. Some women understandably may not want to talk to a man. But for the young lady I talked to, I think she appreciated my perspective. I told her I have four children, including a daughter about her age. She was very worried about what her parents might think. In those cases you have to continually reassure victims that they are victims. We let them know how brave it is for them to reach out for help.

New Experiment...

I’m going to buy a new kind of fruit I’ve never had before each time I go food shopping. I feel like I always breeze through the produce section only making my regular stops - sure maybe I’ll try a new kind of apple now and then, but that’s pretty much the extent of my fruit exploration. I grew up on apples, bananas, and grapes, with watermelon being the ultimate summer experience. When I was little, I never quite enjoyed the texture of oranges, so I used to just suck the juice out of each wedge, leaving a pile of dehydrated orange mush. I never really understood pears.

So it’s time to broaden my fruit horizons. First up - mango.

“How do you pick out a mango?” I ask my friend whose culinary reach is much further than mine. “They should be soft, but not too soft.” Which is the same answer given when asking about basically any fruit that’s not an apple. So I buy my mango but I fear it’s definitely not “soft enough” yet, so I wait. And I wait. Then wait some more. The glorious day finally arrives when the mango was just right for cutting. I’ve been told by people that there is a big pit in the center and man were they not lying. This pit is huge and it’s not even nicely shaped. It looks like one of those spiky underwater mines. I was only able to cut off small, thin slices of this thing. Oh, and here’s another fun part - you don’t eat the skin, but you really can’t peel it off either. So you get to suck the fruit part off like your slurping down oysters. I’ll admit the fruit was tasty, but eating the mango was like deflowering a virgin - it takes a long time to get to the juicy part and when it’s over, you’re looking at quite a mess. Final verdict:

Way too much work for the good part. I won’t be buying it again unless it’s pre-cut pieces.

Neural Advertising: The Sounds We Can't Resist

In the early years of mainstream cell-phone use, the Nokia ringtone was recognized by 42% of people in the U.K. — and soon became widely loathed. That, Lindstrom says, was partly because so few users practiced cell-phone etiquette and the blasted things kept going off in movie theaters. The Microsoft start-up sound has taken on similarly negative associations, because people so often hear it when they’re rebooting after their computer has crashed.

While on the topic of awesome Radiohead mash-ups this CD goes without mention as one of the best start-to-finish mash-up CDs. We’ve previously featured a couple of tracks and you know what they say: the more, the merrier. So knock yourself out.

“I started reading the books and understanding the character and the significance of the letter M. There’s a moment when he says, ‘I’m investigating things that begin with the letter M’. That was huge for me. Hatters were referred to as mad because of the mercury they used to use in the glue. Mercury was the M. I found that fascinating.”
