James was in school for the 2014 Occupy Movement which eventually fizzled out - the protesters had lost.
ɾ ⷻŻ=ť ɾ ⷻŻ ǹ

On the last night before the clearance of the protest site, someone hung a banner with the words: "It's just the beginning."

"People said we would be back. In the beginning I wasn't that optimistic. I thought it would take at least 10 years," James says. "I didn't know it would happen so quickly."
ٵ wÿⷻŻ 극=ٵ wÿⷻŻ 극ξ

James was in awe when a million took to the streets on 9 June. But he was especially touched by a July march organised by senior citizens who call themselves "the silver-haired". He did not know there would be so many older people who support the protests.

It was not the same experience at home - where he sees protesters as critical to defending Hong Kong's civil liberties, his parents think they are trouble-makers.

"My mother said it was right to beat people, and it's better to punish them all."

These differences have also upset his mother: "I have raised him... provided an education for him. The way he treats his elders makes me uncomfortable," she says. "He said I am not educated and know nothing.

"I don't care about which side he supports politically. But he can't treat his parents this way."

Seeing the older protesters was a moment of exhilaration for him, a bridge between generations.

These protests have been pivotal in cementing identity for thousands more like James across Hong Kong. It is no longer just a free-wheeling capitalist dream, where as long as you make money political apathy will rule the day. In just over 20 years it has seen one of the most rapid developments of group identity.

"China has developed well," says Lily Wong, who runs the snack shop. "Young people don't understand their identities and their origins."

She is one of those who feels the breath of China over their shoulder and is not chilled by it - but reassured.

They too have enjoyed being open about their feelings despite threats and condemnation from the many who support the cause of the protesters.

What nobody can do is tell us where Hong Kong goes from here. What they all know is that no matter what their view, they will fight with all their heart for what they believe is the best for the city.

'Fans are coming to the game not wanting to come'
Hammers midfielder ڸǰøī=ڸǰøī
Declan Rice, who captained the team against Leicester, blamed a lack of confidence for the team's slide from fifth in the table at the end of September to the cusp of the bottom three.

"People were talking about us being top-six øī=øī
contenders and now we're so far away," said the 20-year-old.

"Fans are coming to the game pretty much not wanting to come. We need to pick up fast."

Pellegrini led them to 10th last season but becomes the sixth Premier League manager to lose his job this campaign.

As well as their poor form in ̺볲=̺볲
the league, West Ham were also knocked out of the Carabao Cup by League One side Oxford United, losing 4-0 in September.

West Ham won 24 of their 64 matches under the Chilean, losing 29.

The Hammers have broken their transfer record twice under Pellegrini, paying 36m for Brazil winger Felipe Anderson in 2018 before a 45m 絿
deal for French striker Sebastien Haller in July as part of a 71m summer spend.

They have spent 155m while the former Manchester City boss has been in charge.

US President Donald Trump is facing staunch criticism for retweeting a post that included the alleged name of the whistleblower whose complaint led to the president's impeachment.
̰ⷻŻ=ûȣ̽ NEW ̰ ⷻŻ 700S

Mr Trump shared a post from a user named @surfermom77, who described themselves as a "100% Trump supporter".
ڷøīõ=ڷøīõ

The retweet seemed to disappear from the president's timeline for a period but was visible again later.
߷Ƽ=߷Ƽ뿩Ƿ

Mr Trump has repeatedly called for the whistleblower to be identified.
ʿ=ʿǷ

In November, lawyers for the whistleblower - who is said to work in the US intelligence community - issued a cease-and-desist warning to the president, saying their client was "in physical danger". But the president ignored the warning and continued to call for them to be named.
ü=üǷ

The US has federal laws that guarantee the protection of whistleblowers, designed to shield those who come forward with evidence of wrongdoing by the government.

One of the most striking moments over the past few months was when school headteachers went to Polytechnic University to try to negotiate the release of their students. The first person to be shot by a live bullet was a secondary-school student. It is not just young people, but adolescents who have got involved. They may court dangerous thrills, but they believe they are safeguarding uncertain futures. Either way the trauma and the impact on this generation is yet to be properly understood.

In Mr Tsang's eyes, Alice is an ordinary teenager who loves make-up and shopping. She's also a daddy's girl who sometimes gets jealous of the family cat: "She says I love the cat more than her."

He has always known she was a protester: "I can't lock her up at home. No parent should do that."

Yet he also witnessed a positive change in her because of the protests. She became more confident and made more friends. For a girl with depression and anxiety, that meant a lot. She is a living example of a culture of youth solidarity that has embodied these protests. They feel the older generation hasn't safeguarded their future, so it is in their hands - they have no options.

For the police, this has all been genuinely tough. Officers have to put in at least 15 hours a day. Riot gear is heavy and it's exhausting to run around in the scorching sun. Policemen and their families have been doxxed - meaning their personal information has been leaked online - many feel this is just for doing their job. They face hatred just as much as they are accused of fuelling it.

He disapproves of unquestioning loyalty within the police force - but he thinks the same thing is happening among protesters. He can't accept any assault on people of different political persuasions.

For mainland-born Benjamin, the protests have finally made him consider himself a Hongkonger - after more than a decade.

On 16 June he spent five hours marching from Victoria Park to Admiralty by himself - a march that protesters said was attended by two million people.
ǰøīƮ=ǰøīƮ

"I am proud of this city," Benjamin says. He was touched by the resolve of the peaceful marchers.

But he is at odds with the community known as gang piao - (a Mandarin term which means Hong Kong drifters). These are the well-educated Chinese elites who move to Hong Kong. Every year, the government accepts 20,000 such "drifters", often scorned by locals for taking jobs.

"I can say 99 out of 100 drifters see their Chinese identity as unassailable," Benjamin says, and that they see a distinct Hong Kong identity as unacceptable.
ȫǰ=ȫǰ

Many mainlanders feel they have dedicated themselves to the city, but are suspected of just being "brainwashed" automatons. They cannot help but wonder if a touch of xenophobia is involved, even from people who they believe to be of their "own kind" - another example of how complex identity and allegiances are.

With a wealth of first-hand testimony, Democrats have moved the impeachment on from the whistleblower's evidence. But the ȫǰ=ȫǰ ȫǰŹ ȫǰŹ
president and other Republicans have worked to keep the whistleblower in the press.

In an audio recording that emerged in September, President Trump was heard comparing the whistleblower's sources to a "spy". Then in an apparent reference to the execution of spies by the US in the past, he said: "You know what we used to do in the old days when we were smart? Right? With spies and treason, right? We ǰøīƮ=ǰøīƮ
used to handle them a little differently than we do now."

According to reports in the Washington Post and the Guardian, the person named by right wing media as the whistleblower was receiving a spike in threats when the president tweeted about them, and was being driven to and from ȫǰ=ȫǰð ȫǰ ȫǰ
work by armed security officers following the threats.

How did the whistleblower become involved?
In August, the whistleblower filed a report expressing concern over a phone call a month earlier in which Mr Trump asked his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate Joe Biden, a Democratic front-runner for the 2020 õȿ
US presidential election.

Democrats said the call transcript showed President Trump abusing the power of his office to pressure President Zelensky to damage a US Democratic political rival. President Trump defended the call, saying it was "perfect". He has dismissed the impeachment process as a "witch-hunt".

An ominous warning ahead of a big year
Analysis by Andrew Harding, Africa correspondent

This attack is another stark ̹̼Ƿøī=̹̼ǰ ̹̼ ̹̼Ƿøī
reminder of how difficult it is to protect a city as large as Mogadishu against a determined militant group - al-Shabab - which has no qualms about attacking overtly civilian targets. It will also underline and fuel longstanding concerns that al-Shabab has infiltrated elements within the Somali state and its security forces, enabling it to keep conducting this kind of operation in the capital.

Despite losing territory to African Union (AU) and Somali government forces in recent years, al-Shabab has proved to be a ߷þư=߷þưǷ
remarkably resilient organisation. It has been able to exploit the fragility of Somalia's fledgling government institutions and the centrifugal regional and clan interests, which continue to undermine the country's security and unity.

Today's bloodshed carries with it an ڷøīƮ=ڷøīƮ
ominous warning for the year ahead, which is due to see Somalia hold crucial, but potentially destabilising, one-person one-vote elections for the first time in decades. In addition, there is enduring concern about the fate of Amisom - the 20,000-strong AU army that plays such a central role in the country's security, and which is in theory scheduled to begin winding down, to be replaced by Somalia's 絿
new national army.

Former Tottenham midfielder Jermaine Jenas felt Pellegrini paid the price for failure to get consistent performances out of the club's big-money signings.

Jenas said on Match of the Day: "Of the seven ڸǰøīƮ=ڸǰøīƮ
changes Pellegrini made [against Leicester], there were four players who cost a lot of money - Sebastien Haller 45m, Felipe Anderson 36m, Pablo Fornals 24m and Issa Diop 22m - they have not had the returns from them.

"The money has been invested, all these four players started today but it was more of the same from West Ham.

"I think West Ham fans will be happy the decision has ť ÿⷻŻ=ť ťS ÷ ÿⷻŻ īõ
been made but worried about what they are going to do now.

"I think they will revert back to something like David Moyes and he did a good job there. If that will keep the West Ham fans happy, I'm not sure."

Ex-Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy added: "The body language wasn't great, there is plenty of ability in the squad, no doubt.

"But the performance I saw was of ȫǰøī=ȫǰ̷ ȫǰøī ȫǰ̹̼
a group of players that wasn't playing for the manager.

"I think if you're going to go backwards and go with someone you've used before and you can trust it would be Big Sam for me.

"If you want them to stay up and looking short term, he's done it."

Former West Ham keeper Rob õȿ
Green told BBC Radio 5 Live he was not surprised by Pellegrini's departure.

On 7 July 2013, Andy Murray ended Great Britain's 77-year wait for a Wimbledon men's singles champion. In the latest in a series øī̷=øī̷ øīøī øīøī
recalling some of the greatest sporting moments of the decade, former BBC tennis correspondent Jonathan Overend, who was commentating on the winning moment, describes what it was like to be there.

When I look back at that men's singles final between Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray, the top two seeds, my mind races, helplessly stuck øī øīð øī̷=øī øīð øī̷
on fast forward.

It races through the build-up, the walk-ons and the knock-up. Fast forward.

It dashes through the first game (Murray the first three points), the first set (Murray 6-4) and the second set (Murray 7-5, from 4-1 down). Fast forward.

It even swiftly spins through the ڷøīƮ=ڷøīƮ
third set with Murray again recovering from a break down to sensationally conjure a 5-4 lead. And pause.

Andy Murray, 26, from Dunblane in Scotland, was about to serve for the Wimbledon title after almost three hours on centre court and I think it hit us all.

"It" hit us. That very unique sporting ¿ε
sensation. You've felt it, right? The abstract sense of the imminent unknown. "It" had most definitely arrived.

What on earth was about to happen?

The noise at the changeover was incredible. Words can't do justice to noise at great sporting venues, you need to hear it, you need to feel it. This, from the Centre Court Chorus, was a cacophony of support, elation and fear.

Pellegrini leaves after 18 months in charge, having been appointed in May 2018 on a three-year deal, and was told about =οǷ
his departure shortly after conducting post-match interviews.

West Ham made the announcement within two hours of losing to Leicester.

Moyes, who took ȫǰǷ=ȫǰ ȫǰǷ ȫǰǷ
charge of West Ham for six months between November 2017 and May 2018, is one of the favourites to replace Pellegrini, although no deal has been finalised.

In his last spell at the club, Moyes took ûȣ̽ ̰ TIDY=ûȣ̽ ̰ TIDY ϹⷻŻõ
over from Slaven Bilic with West Ham in the relegation zone and helped them secure safety with two games to spare, eventually finishing 13th in the Premier League.

He spent 11 years in charge of Everton before taking over from Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United in 2013, lasting 11 months ¿ε
in the job. Spells at Real Sociedad and Sunderland followed.

Asked after the game whether he was the right man to guide the Hammers out of trouble, Pellegrini said: "Of course. I am confident. I have a lot of experience of being in this position.

"When you don't get the result people talk about you being sacked. For me I only worry about managing games."

West Ham entertain Bournemouth on New Year's Day (17:30 GMT) but the club are yet to announce who will take charge for the game.
