The Dhaka Times Desk The world's only quarterly magazine is France's 'La Bougie du Sapach'. The new issue of the magazine was published on February 29 this year. This 20-page satirical tabloid from France was published only on February 29.
The first issue of 'La Bougie du Sapach' was published in 1980. The 12th issue of this magazine was published this year. 2 lakh copies of the magazine were printed. And the price is kept at 4.20 dollars. At this price, more money is raised than the cost of publication. However, there is no online version of this magazine. It is only available for purchase at newsagents and newspaper stands.
The magazine's editor, Jean D'Indy, told the BBC: 'After the first issue sold out in just two days, magazine agents asked for more copies. So we said, OK, you will get the magazine but once in 4 years.'
Indy also said, 'The magazine is still published by a few of our friends. We talk about ideas while having a drink at a bar. We also have great fun. But the readers also have fun, then Sonaya Sohaga.'
La Bougie has all the same content as a traditional magazine. Politics, sports, international news, art, riddles, various rumors about the lives of stars - everything gets a place in this magazine. However, the news has a great sense of humour.
The headline of the current issue is - We will all be smarter. The news also talks about how AI is making tests and intellectual achievement redundant.
The second major news headline this year was 'What men need to know before becoming women'. This article discusses the 'challenges' that transgender men may face.
D'Indy said, 'These are all French humours, and cannot be translated into other languages. We're all about innocent fun, but no filth. I want to have fun without being cruel to anyone.'
Editors in the sports page also recommended the Winston Churchill Award for the first Olympic elimination athlete. Since Churchill's policy was - according to the newspaper - no sport, they made this recommendation.
Interestingly, a serial story is also featured in this issue. The story is called 'The Drowning in the Pool'. The next installment of this story will be published in 2028.
'La Bougie du Sapach' is named after a French cartoon character. The cartoon character, La Sapach Camembert, was created to depict the life of soldiers in the 1890s.

How to prevent dengue
Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral fever. This fever is different from other viral or bacterial fevers. However, this fever is not contagious in any way. This viral fever can occur alone or in combination with other viruses (chikungunya, yellow fever, Burma forest, flu, respiratory syncytial) and bacteria (pneumococcus).
Dengue fever is divided into two categories depending on the severity of symptoms and fever.
1. Common dengue fever
2. Dengue fever with bleeding.
In the case of common dengue fever, the following symptoms are mainly seen-
1. Sudden high fever lasting 2 to 7 days.
2. Severe headache.
3. Pain behind the eyes.
4. Along with the fever, red rash appears all over the body.
5. Severe pain in whole body as well as back pain.
6. Nausea or vomiting.
7. A rash or red bumps on the skin.
In case of dengue fever with bleeding:
1. Bleeding from nose, mouth or vomiting with high fever within 2 to 48 hours.
2. Fluid accumulation in chest or abdomen along with fever.
If any of these symptoms appear, seek medical attention immediately.
On the other hand
Wait at home for the first 3 days of fever. On the other hand, sponge the whole body with water every now and then. This will reduce the level of fever. Drink enough water and rest. After that, if the fever does not decrease or if it continues to increase after some time, consult a doctor immediately.
Things to do to prevent Dengue:
1. Try to keep the surroundings of the house as clean as possible.
2. If there are flower tubs or broken plastic bottles, can shells, tires or polythene inside the house, clean them quickly and drain the accumulated water from the flower tubs.
3. Spray or fog at least 3 times a week to kill mosquitoes.
4. You can keep mosquito repellent cream with you while going out.
5. After evening, younger and older members of the household should use mosquito nets.
6. Clean up any accumulated rain water, as this is the time when Aedes mosquitoes lay their eggs.
7. On the other hand, you can use mats along with mosquito nets to avoid mosquito infestation.
8. Since Aedes mosquitoes bite during the day, it is important to avoid sleeping with mosquito nets while sleeping during the day. Source: https://dmpnews.org
