[European Times] January 4th, the 25th day of the lunar calendar, the first working day since 2016. According to the old Chinese calendar, it is advisable to be lifted, bathed, and taken on the job this day, but it is not necessary to open the market.

Flip through yesterday's European news, the good and bad luck of the ancestors' calendar has once again been effective. If you are disobedient, you will only have "bird shit" coming from the sky, which will make the New Year bad. Let's take a look at the whole of Europe and slowly tell me.
should be lifted: The Middle East is in chaos, and all countries say they should restrain
A few days ago, the extremist organization "Islamic State" (IS) posted a video online saying that they executed five men engaged in espionage for Britain in Syria and threatened to "invade" the UK. In the video, a militant with a pure British accent appeared, and a young boy aged 6 to 7, wearing camouflage uniforms and speaking English.

The British Daily Telegraph confirmed that the little boy is the son of the British "jihad bride". The woman's name is Grace Dare, who has moved to Syria to marry an IS militant and converted to Islam.
Her father is now a taxi driver. In an interview with the UK Channel 4, he said: "This photo shocked me. It must be him. Of course I was worried. But I can do nothing. He knows nothing. He is just a kid. They just treat him as a shield."

Daiya revealed that she never answered the call from her daughter because she shamed the family and herself, but he still hoped that her daughter could return to the UK: "She should come back to enjoy the music. She failed herself."
"Islamic State" seems to have declared war on the whole world, and countries also said that "Islamic State" is their common enemy, but the chaotic situation in the Middle East is unsolved for a day, and it will take a little more time to eliminate the "Islamic State".
The muddy water in the Middle East has become even more muddy recently. After Saudi Arabia announced that it would sever diplomatic relations with Iran, Bahrain and Sudan also announced that they would sever diplomatic relations with Iran on the 4th, while the UAE government reduced Iran's diplomatic level to a minimum. In order to avoid escalating regional tensions, the EU, Germany, France, China and other governments have called on both sides to maintain restraint, and Russia has expressed its original intention to serve as the mediator to help the two countries resolve disputes.

A few days ago, Russia updated its national security strategy, listing the United States as one of the national security threats for the first time. The outside world claims that this is a sign of freezing relations with the United States, but in fact it is taken out of context. In fact, Russia made it clear in the Strategy that the country originally agreed to cooperate with the United States in the field of common interests and is willing to enhance mutually beneficial cooperation with European countries and multilateral organizations. This seems to indicate that Russia regards the United States as a national security threat, which is just a "recitation" in rhetoric.
Against this background, the US Department of Defense's remarks can also be understood as a step back. A spokesman for the country's defense ministry made it clear that he did not want a conflict with Russia and Russia did not need to regard them as a threat.
It is advisable to bathe: bird droppings are coming from the sky, everyone needs to wash white
Winter is the season for starlings to migrate. This time of year, the flock of starlings resting on historical buildings is a iconic sight in Rome. They had a full meal in the suburbs at noon and returned to the warm and bright city center at night. It seems comfortable, but the treatment of starling's feces has always been a problem in Rome.
Starlings feed on olives when they live in the suburbs, so the feces are particularly dirty and very slippery. In addition, Rome has suffered heavy rains for several days, and the roads full of bird droppings and rotten leaves are even more dangerous. It is reported that this "grand occasion" has caused several traffic accidents. Considering the safety of the citizens, the Roman authorities had to block the streets on both sides of the Tiber River so that sanitation workers could wash away bird droppings.

What makes Italy look dirty is not only bird shit, but also haze. At the end of 2015, the pollution values in many Italian cities continued to exceed the standard for about a month. Although the recent air-conditioning mass has restored the air to freshen, the government has proposed a number of major measures to cure haze, preparing to fight a protracted war.
In addition to promoting public measures such as electric vehicle charging stations, free transportation and traffic restrictions, the Italian government also called on the public to lower the heating temperature and limit driving speed. The general public obviously do not buy into such demands. Netizens sarcastically said that decision makers are really "scientists". Car engines only consume more fuel when driven at slow speed. Do they even know this?
Living in the haze, no one can feel comfortable. But living too cleanly may not be as happy as a beauty pageant in the UK, a British beauty pageant, suffered from obsessive-compulsive disorder because of being too clean. The beauty is named Kelly Waite. Since she suffered from cleanliness 10 years ago, she has used bleaching water to brush the toilet 6 times a year, clean the sink 4 times, and then clean the room one by one.

is afraid of dirtying the kitchen. Waite never cooks at home. Even if he goes out to eat, he will take out his own detergent and wet tissues and wipe the table, bowls and plates of tableware over and over again. She even felt that she was covered in dirt and bacteria, so she used a vacuum cleaner to suck her body every day. Because of this, it is difficult for her to work a normal person from nine to five. In fact, it's still not short of money.
is suitable for office: Zidane took office as Real Madrid, and said he would strive to win the championship
On the evening of January 4, Real Madrid President Florentino announced that the original Real Madrid Bishop Benitez was dismissed and replaced by football superstar Zidane.
Benitez only took over Real Madrid in the summer of 2015, but under his leadership, Real Madrid's record this season is not satisfactory. In the league, Real Madrid ranked third with 11 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses, with 37 points, and the King's Cup was eliminated for misuse of the banned player. After a draw with Valencia last weekend, the club held an emergency board meeting and made a decision to change the coach.

"The board of directors decided to appoint Zidane as coach, who is one of the greatest figures in football history. For Zidane, the word "impossible" does not exist at all." Zidane, who took over the new coach of Real Madrid, also made a harsh statement: "I hope to do my best to strive to bring a championship to the team at the end of the season." After the news of
was announced, a picture of a spoof of Zidane and Benitez became popular on social networks. The picture is taken from the 2006 World Cup final, when Zidane overturned Italian defender Matrazi and left the court with a red card. This time, the fans put Benitez's avatar on Matrazi. The two avatars' different expressions and different movements and postures made them look vivid and full of laughter.

Although there are three furious things in the new official's appointment, it cannot deny the great pressure. The British government also has this kind of pressure, because British children have too poor mathematics, and they require all primary school students in England to take the multiplication table test within 12×12 before graduation.
However, even British Prime Minister Cameron will not memorize the multiplication formula. In February 2015, a reporter asked Cameron: "Hello, Mr. Prime Minister! I am a reporter from No. 5 TV Station. Why do you think this policy will be successful? In fact, many schools in our country have implemented it very early, but the children's mathematics has not improved. Therefore, what I want to ask is...what does 9×8 equal?"
Netizens mocked Cameron for not even 1+1.(Picture source: Data picture)
This sudden question obviously shocked the Prime Minister. Cameron said in a slight voice and said, "I want to explain first that I only memorize the multiplication formula when I send my wife to school!" "So, in order not to make an unexpected mistake on TV, I will not answer this question. The reason why we introduced this policy and thought it would succeed was because..."
avoids opening the market: On the first day of the New Year's trading, global stock markets encountered a "black opening"
From the crazy bull run in early 2015, to a thousand-point decline in the middle of the year, and then to a repaired rebound at the end of the year, A-shares completed the switch between bull and bear markets. However, the shadow of the plunge has not yet dissipated. On the first trading day of the new year, A-shares once again ushered in significant turmoil, directly contacting the circuit breaker mechanism, closing early.

The so-called circuit breaker is like a fuse in the stock market. When the stock index falls to a certain extent, suspend trading or until the closing. Yesterday, the Shanghai and Shenzhen 300 index opened slightly lower since the opening and then fell all the way, reaching the circuit breaker threshold of 5% at 13:13, and trading was suspended for 15 minutes. After trading again, the seller poured out again, and the index fell rapidly. In less than 6 minutes, the Shanghai and Shenzhen 300 index hit a circuit breaker threshold of 7%, and the entire market stopped trading until the closing.
Affected by A-shares, European stock markets also fell sharply across the board. The FTSE 100 index in the UK fell 2.4%, the Pan-European Stock 600 index fell 2.74%, the German DAX-30 index fell 4.19%, and the French CAC-40 index fell 2.63%. Stock markets in various places are green all the way.
should not open the market, avoid opening the market. The circuit breaker failed to break this prediction. Should investors collectively review the calendar before the opening in the future?
