50jili guess the game Mercedes-Benz has always been at the sharp end of technological innovation and design evolution which is reflected in their concept cars of the past, present, and the ones proposed for the future. The Vision EQS, , , and are good examples of the brand’s future ambitions. This gives independent automotive concept designers the creative opportunity to expand that vision even further with striking mock creations. Mercedes Chronos concept is one of them, impressing with the hyper futuristic design aesthetics that are fit for a dystopian future that’ll be radically different from today’s world. Designer: This Mercedes concept is a stunning exercise in pushing the boundaries of automotive design drawing inspiration from the brand’s rich heritage and exploring the possibilities in unknown times that demand a vehicle tailored for all-terrain commute. Crafted as a luxury, high-performance electric vehicle, the Chronos is a fusion of elegance, cutting-edge technology, and aerodynamic precision, capturing the essence of what a Mercedes-Benz of tomorrow could be. The design concept is sleek yet dynamic, with a low-slung, elongated body that exudes a sense of speed even at a standstill. The sharp, fluid lines are inspired by the natural flow of wind, optimized to reduce drag and improve efficiency. The aggressive front end reminiscent of a serpent’s hood features a seamless amalgam of the grille and headlights. Loaded with advanced LED headlight technology, the compact panel creates an illuminated signature that’s both visually striking and highly functional. This one-seater hotrod has a large unibody spoiler at the rear and a curvaceous lower end contrasted by the flashy taillights. The side panels are brought to life with a translucent honeycomb-patterned body panel backlit by warm lighting. In the nighttime, this feature comes to life, turning this sci-fi Mercedes concept into an object of desire. For me, this concept is a pure representation of what the thought process of our descendants would be. Flamboyant, fearless, and magnetic!Wild host the Predators after Spurgeon's 2-goal performance

A fugitive gains fame in New Orleans eluding dart guns and netsArsenal's Bukayo Saka celebrates scoring their fifth goal with teammates Jurrien Timber and Martin Odegaard.. LONDON - Resurgent Arsenal romped to a 5-2 victory at capital rivals West Ham United in a Premier League derby on Nov 30, with all seven goals coming in a mind-boggling first half in the evening kickoff at the London Stadium. Gabriel’s trademark ninth-minute header opened the floodgates and Arsenal ran riot, with Leandro Trossard tapping in after 26 minutes before Martin Odegaard’s penalty and Kai Havertz’s cool finish in the space of a minute sent some home fans heading for the exits. Incredibly, West Ham responded almost immediately, with Aaron Wan-Bissaka slotting home before a stunning free kick by Emerson offered hope of an unlikely comeback. But Arsenal were awarded a second penalty of the game in first-half stoppage and this time Bukayo Saka stepped up to dispatch his spot kick past Lukasz Fabianski. By comparison the second half was something of an anti-climax as Arsenal cruised to the win that moved them up to second in the table with 25 points, six behind leaders Liverpool who host struggling champions Manchester City on Dec 1. Arsenal have now scored 13 goals in their last three games as they return to form in spectacular fashion after a slump which had some writing off their title chances. “I was happier with the first 30 minutes rather than the last 15 minutes of the first half that’s for sure,” said Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta, whose side beat Sporting 5-1 away in the Champions League this week. “We started incredibly well, so positive, so much energy and a lot of quality. Immediately after we scored the fourth we conceded a sloppy one and an unbelievable free kick and then it was game on. Thank goodness we scored the fifth and we were able to manage the game in the second half.” Cruise control For the second season running, Arsenal went to West Ham and dished out a humiliation. In 2023, they won 6-0 and the way they began on Nov 30 they looked like surpassing that. As it was, all the fireworks arrived before halftime and they ended in cruise control with West Ham’s Danny Ings even going close to salvaging some more home pride late on. It was only the fourth time in a Premier League match that seven goals had been scored in the first period, the last occasion being Reading against Manchester United in 2012. While Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta was purring at his side’s display, West Ham manager Julen Lopetegui, who was forced to watch from the stands because of a touchline ban, is back under pressure after having appeared to turn the corner with his side’s win at Newcastle United on Nov 25. West Ham are 14th in the table and have now lost four times at home in the league this season under the Spaniard, who replaced David Moyes in May. Lopetegui would surely have told his players about the threat from Gabriel at set pieces but they clearly were not heeding when he met Saka’s corner with a deft header. Arsenal oozed confidence early on and their second goal was a masterclass as Saka and Odegaard combined to tee up Trossard for a close-range finish. A slaloming Saka was then taken down in the area and Odegaard made it 3-0 before a sublime pass from Trossard sent Havertz clear to beat Fabianski with a clinical finish. The game was as good as over and, despite a brief retaliation, West Ham were never really in it. When Fabianski came out to punch a corner but connected with Gabriel instead, Saka slotted in the penalty to restore order for the visitors.

EXCLUSIVE Donald Trump announces he is making Kimberly Guilfoyle his ambassador to Greece in stunning move Guilfoyle is a former Fox News host and a big Trump fundraiser By ROB CRILLY, CHIEF U.S. POLITICAL CORRESPONDENT FOR DAILYMAIL.COM IN WASHINGTON, D.C. Published: 17:35 EST, 10 December 2024 | Updated: 18:24 EST, 10 December 2024 e-mail 32 shares 136 View comments Donald Trump announced Tuesday he was appointing ex-Fox News host Kimberly Guilfoyle as his ambassador to Greece . Guilfoyle, 55, studied international law and entered public life as a prosecutor in San Francisco and Los Angeles , but entered the Trump orbit as fiancee to the president-elect's son Don Jr , 46. 'Her extensive experience and leadership in law, media, and politics along with her sharp intellect make her supremely qualified to represent the United States, and safeguard its interests abroad,' Trump said in a Truth Social post. 'Kimberly is perfectly suited to foster strong bilateral relations with Greece, advancing our interests on issues ranging from defense cooperation to trade and economic innovation.' The announcement comes just hours after Daily Mail published photographs of Don Jr. hand-in-hand with the Palm Beach socialite , Bettina Anderson, showing his days with Guilfoyle are clearly over. Don Jnr and Guilfoyle began dating in 2018 and became engaged in 2020. However, Daily Mail has reported extensively that their relationship is all but over since September. Donald Jr. continued to be photographed with 55-year-old Guilfoyle after our revelation, but she has not been snapped with him since November 12 – and was reported to have been 'blindsided'. 'There are a ton of people vying for this. It is one of the hottest posts in the world,' said a source familiar with the president-elect's thinking. 'Not just because it's an amazing place place to live, but because it's a hotbed of activity with everything that is happening in Syria , throughout the middle east, and the migrant crisis.' The source added that Guilfoyle, aside from her relationship with Don Jr. had known Trump for 20 years, and raised hundreds of millions of dollars for his campaigns. 'He wants her to represent him on the world stage,' the source added. Kimberly Guilfoyle is the favorite to be Donald Trump's next ambassador to Greece Guilfoyle was a host on Fox News for more than a decade and has known Trump for 20 years 'She studied international law and will be amazing spokeswoman for Donald Trump. 'She'll be the Jackie O of the MAGA movement.' Guilfoyle was assistant district attorney in San Francisco from 2000 to 2004. But it was her marriage to Democratic politician Gavin Newsom that brought into the public eye, when she was first lady of San Francisco during his first two years as mayor of that city. Insiders said that experience would help her cope with the demands of being Trump's representative overseas. Guilfoyle was an energetic campaigner for Trump and appeared on stage with the family at the election night party in West Palm Beach. She addressed foreign policy during her convention speech in Milwaukee. 'In our vision, America will combat foreign aggressors and ensure our service members are protected, not abandoned, as they carry out their dangerous missions abroad, because we know we can only have peace through strength,' she said in July. Donald Trump, Jr., and Bettina Anderson hold hands leaving Buccan restaurant in Palm Beach, Florida on Monday Donald Trump, Jr., and Bettina Anderson leave Buccan together on Monday night She appeared with other members of the Trump family in their box at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in July Guilfoyle addressed the party faithful on day three of the Republican National Convention But the appointment comes as her fiancee Don Jr. has been repeatedly pictured with Bettina Anderson , 38, around Palm Beach, suggesting his six-year engagement in well an truly over. The new couple's latest date saw them attend exclusive hotspot Buccan for two hours to celebrate Anderson's birthday. The restaurant is just three miles from Bettina's townhouse, where Don often stays. They looked every bit a new couple, with Don Jr holding her Bettina's hand as they left the venue just before 10pm. Guilfoyle's new role means she will likely be swapping life in Florida for Jefferson House, the American ambassador's residence in the Greek capital Athens. It comes with a swimming pool in the backyard and enough reception space to entertain hundreds of dignitaries. It was named for Thomas Jefferson who held up Greek democracy as the most important influence on the founding of the American republic.

Shortstop Willy Adames and San Francisco Giants finalize $182 million, 7-year contract DALLAS (AP) — Willy Adames and San Francisco finalized a $182 million, seven-year contract on Tuesday, providing the Giants with a power-hitting shortstop in the prime of his career.

(AP Photo/Aaron Gash, File) DALLAS (AP) — Willy Adames and San Francisco finalized a $182 million, seven-year contract on Tuesday, providing the Giants with a power-hitting shortstop in the prime of his career. It’s a big splash by the Giants’ new-look front office, which is now led by former All-Star catcher Buster Posey , who took over in September after Farhan Zaidi was fired. San Francisco has missed the playoffs in each of the last three years, going 80-82 this season. Adames’ deal is the richest in franchise history, topping a $167 million, nine-year contract that Posey agreed to in 2013. The 29-year-old Adames is coming off his best offensive season in the big leagues after hitting .251 with a career-high 32 homers and 112 RBIs with the Milwaukee Brewers. He’s a solid defensive shortstop with a strong arm and good range, though his metrics slipped a little in 2024. He also has provided consistent power with 150 homers over seven seasons, breaking into the big leagues in 2018 with Tampa Bay and hit 20 homers in his first full season in 2019. He was traded to the Brewers in 2021 and had one of his best seasons in 2022, slugging 31 homers with 98 RBIs and had a 4.3 WAR. Adames was signed by Detroit n 2012 as a 16-year-old in the Dominican Republic. ___ AP MLB: https://apnews.com/mlb The Associated Press See a typo/mistake? Have a story/tip?

Probably not soon Dec 10, 2024 2:35 PMSalah nervelessly converted a 63rd-minute penalty, his 16th goal of the season, after French referee Benoit Bastien had been advised to take another look at Donny van de Beek’s clumsy challenge on Luis Diaz. In the process, he became just the 11th man to score 50 goals in the competition – Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappe later also joined that exclusive club – on a night when victory at the Estadi Montilivi meant the six-time European champions will enter 2025 sitting proudly at the top of the table. ⭐️ A FIVE STAR PERFORMANCE ⭐️ #FCBayern #MiaSanMia | #SHAFCB #UCL pic.twitter.com/WELoxugaGn — FC Bayern (@FCBayernEN) December 10, 2024 France international Michael Olise produced a moment of magic to set the seal on Bayern Munich’s demolition of Shakhtar Donetsk and ease them towards the knockout stage. Olise’s brilliant stoppage-time run and finish capped a 5-1 victory for the Germans, in which he had early scored from the penalty spot, in Gelsenkirchen. Kevin’s fifth-minute strike had given the home side the perfect start, but Konrad Laimer levelled before Thomas Muller’s 55th goal in the competition sent the visitors in ahead at the break and set the stage for Olise’s double either side of Jamal Musiala’s strike. Jude Bellingham breathed life back into Real Madrid’s campaign as they held off Atalanta to earn a 3-2 victory in Bergamo. 🫲 @BellinghamJude 🫱 #UCL pic.twitter.com/jTynK04akR — Real Madrid C.F. 🇬🇧🇺🇸 (@realmadriden) December 10, 2024 After Charles De Ketelaere had cancelled out Mbappe’s opener from the penalty spot, second-half goals from Vinicius Junior and Bellingham in quick succession put the visitors in charge, although Ademola Lookman’s 65th-minute strike meant the contest was alive until the final whistle. Ross Barkley took Aston Villa a step closer to automatic qualification with a late winner against RB Leipzig in Germany. Villa had led twice through John McGinn and Jhon Duran, but equalisers from Lois Openda and Christoph Baumgartner kept Leipzig in it until substitute Barkley struck five minutes from time to snatch a 3-2 victory. Goals from Goncalo Ramos, Nuno Mendes and substitute Desire Doue – his first in the competition – handed French champions Paris St Germain a much-needed three points after a comfortable 3-0 win at RB Salzburg. He's making a list and checking it twiceB04 won and Nordi scored – nice! 🎅 pic.twitter.com/8bs6FGUaHz — Bayer 04 Leverkusen (@bayer04_en) December 10, 2024 Nordi Mukiele left it late to end Inter Milan’s unbeaten Champions League record as Bayer Leverkusen claimed a dramatic 1-0 victory at the BayArena. Mukiele struck in the 90th minute to inflict a first defeat across six games in this season’s competition on the Serie A champions – it was also the first goal they have conceded. Casper Nielsen came off the bench to fire Club Brugge to a 2-1 home victory over Sporting Lisbon after Eduardo Quaresma’s own goal had handed them a way back into the game following Geny Catamo’s early opener. Julien Le Cardinal’s first-half strike was enough to handed Brest a 1-0 victory over Eredivisie leaders PSV Eindhoven, while Kasper Schmeichel’s save from Marko Pjaca’s close-range 80th-minute header ensured Celtic returned from Dinamo Zagreb with a 0-0 draw.
