Today is the first day of Bangla year 1420. The first month in Bangla calendar is called Baishakh. So the day is called Pahela Baishakh or First [day of] Baishakh. On this day the Banglalis say "Shuvo Noborsho" to each other, which means "Have an auspicious new year".
The day is celebrated with a lot of fun and enthusiasm. There has been...
Rallies...
Those of you who don't know, this is Mongol Shovajatra (Rally for Good). It is believed that with the joy and happiness of the rally, the sadness and bad from the old year is washed away from people's lives.

We, the Banglalis are lucky to have a day like this.
And I am very lucky to have an idea coming to my mind on this very day. The idea is to have a mascot for this site. When I thought of it, I thought, LazPlanet is a planet, right? A planet for Lazarus fans. So this planet should have an alien mascot (well, because its a planet). So, on the next second I took some paper and drew out a character by one chance. And this is what I came up with:
I named it AlienGuy, for now of course. But a better name can be adapted later.
I am thinking of adding it to the website design. I sketched a cartoon of a flying spaceship (or UFO) with AlienGuy in it. Other ideas may also come to my mind. Till then, enjoy!
Shuvo Noboborsho
