The PomaBrush is not like any other electric toothbrush I’ve ever used. Its surface is smooth, matt silicone. The first time I used it, I was unprepared for the sensation of silicone bristles. They’re much softer and more flexible than the nylon bristles on an ordinary toothbrush head. Brushing your teeth with it is a very strange experience. My first thought was that it couldn’t possibly be effective but once I had finished brushing, my teeth felt very clean....

This article discusses the function and anatomy of the pons, as well as conditions that can affect this part of the brain. Function Like the other parts of the brainstem, the pons plays an important role in the functioning of the autonomic nervous system. This system controls the body’s “automatic” functions, or things you do without thinking of, like breathing and digesting. The main functions of the pons deal with sensation and motor function, especially for the head and neck....

Poop Slinger is a game that was released on Steam and PS4 in 2018, with very few people seeming to know that it even exists. Then out of nowhere, a brand new company called Limited Rare Games, run by a Russian person based out of South Carolina, decided to take out a bank loan to fund a limited run, physical release of the game. Limited Rare Games then attempted to sell through its stock of 820 physical copies of Poop Slinger on PS4 through a strange, bare-bones website written mostly in Russian that many assumed was a scam....

For Rose, Superstar is part autobiography and part movie. “I think it was important for me to be honest about certain things that I’m kind of ashamed of, or embarrassed by in my life,” she tells Newsweek. “I realized that it makes for a better story if I turn into a character and make it more like a movie. So I made a point of trying to not gender it or make it autobiographical about me, even though everything that happens in it is from my own life: the anxieties, the self-doubt, the regret, the nostalgia—all stuff that I’ve experienced....

Lionel Messi, who has almost covered the entire football record book, is often compared to the likes of Diego Maradona, Pele and his Portuguese rival Cristiano Ronaldo. But the Catholic Church leader was all praise for the gifted Argentine as he picked him as the number one footballer the game has ever seen ahead of the other three. Ronaldo won Euro 2016 and also the UEFA champions league 2015-2016 and many believe that Ronaldo now is a more complete player than Messi as he has that one major trophy with his country....

Speaking at the weekly General Audience, the Pope urged Olympians not to consider winning medals as the ultimate prize, but instead to encapsulate a civilisation in which solidarity takes precedence, EFE news reported. The Pope said it was possible to create a society “based on the acknowledgment that everyone is a member of the same human family, independent of culture, skin colour and religion”. It was the Pope’s first General Audience address since returning last week from Poland, where he celebrated World Youth Day and made a poignant visit to the Auschwitz Nazi concentration and extermination camp....

OVD-Info, a legal group that provides assistance for political arrests, and Zona Prava, a human rights group, were also given the designation. Grigory Okhotin, a co-founder of OVD-Info, said that the decision announced Wednesday did not come as a surprise. “We see this as being part of the pressure campaign against independent organizations and media. This didn’t start today. It’s curious that it happened at the height of the public campaign to abolish the foreign agent legislation, in which OVD-Info was one of the key initiators,” Okhotin said....

Stripchat communications director Max Bennett confirmed to Yahoo! Sports this week that the company will bid up to $15 million for the right to name the iconic Superdome in New Orleans the “Stripchat Superdome.” Mercedes-Benz, which won the right to name the Saints’ home stadium in 2011, will not renew the deal that expires in 2021. Bennett emailed Yahoo! Sports a portion of the pitch Stripchat submitted. Simultaneously, it makes a good point about name potential and likely ruins any chances of serious consideration....

The two split wins against one another last season with Ostapenko getting the best of the Czech number one in straight sets at Singapore. While Pliskova holds the series lead 2-1 her difficulty with the clay courts has her at a disadvantage playing against the recent French Open champion. While she has gained more time on the court, the aggressive style of the Latvian will prove difficult with so much at stake for both sitting a rank above the other....

France came into the game having already secured their spot in the knockout round, but Portugal needed a point to guarantee qualification. Fernando Santos made two changes to the side that lost to Germany, with Renato Sanches and Joao Moutinho coming in for Bruno Fernandes and William Carvalho. France made three changes to their side, with Jules Kounde, Lucas Hernandez and Corentin Tolisso all handed starts at the Puskas Arena....

Portugal took control of the match from the first whistle, and nearly turned their early dominance of possession into a tangible reward — Ronaldo being thwarted by Lawrence Ati-Zigi, before heading wide at the far post a few moments later. The ball was in the Ghana net just past the half-hour mark, via a typically assured Ronaldo finish, but the Portugal captain was adjudged to have fouled Alexander Djiku as he spun on the ball, and the strike was ruled out....

According to prominent Fortnite dataminer and leaker Hypex, that may be exactly what Epic Games is doing. The Twitter account has shared two images said to be tied to an upcoming Fortnite LTM codenamed Saturn. Hypex says that they believe that these teasers are potentially for a new open-world RPG game mode. The reason for their belief is both due to the context of the teaser images, but also because in May a court document revealed Epic was working on just such a game mode....

The virtual concert is in conjunction with The Pokémon Company’s P25 collaboration project, which brings world-renowned artists together for a collection of music-themed events. Post Malone’s concert was announced earlier this month and is the second artist named for the P25 initiative, after Katy Perry. “I’ve been a Pokémon fan for a long time, so the opportunity to headline the Pokémon Day concert celebrating 25 years is awesome,” said Malone in a press release at the time....

The Harambee Stars started their campaign with a 2-0 win against Rwanda’s Amavubi before settling to a barren draw against guest team Libya. ‘Pamzo’ believes it will take time for coach Paul Put to assemble his best squad and give fans the results they want. “Well, the coach has an experience on how to handle big teams, and I believe Kenya has secured a top coach. Despite that, I do not believe that Stars have suddenly become favourites, it is a process....

The Deckard Cain Blizzard pitched The Archivist as an April Fool’s Day joke last year. What a waste it would be to throw away those animations and assets! Instead, take them and turn them into a playable character that we’ve all wanted since the original Diablo: The Deckard Cain. Cain has always been more powerful than anyone ever gave him credit for. The guy has traveled the world with you, survived the destruction of Tristram, and who knows what else....

The disturbance formed on Tuesday in the Atlantic and was spreading heavy rainfall and gusty winds over the Leeward Islands on Wednesday morning. The storm is expected to move north toward Puerto Rico and is on track to hit Florida, but regardless of the exact path it takes, meteorologists warned that its rainfall and winds will extend far from the system’s center. Potential Tropical Cyclone Nine has the potential to bring life-threatening flash flooding and mudslides across the northern Leeward Islands, the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) reported....
