KZBM launched into the publication
world to keep in sync with the 20th century. The following were done
with the view to assist our community in Pakistan which we have achieved
successfully.
Manna of the Angels
In June 1991 KZBM printed the first ever 'coffee table' Parsi cookery
book, Manna of the Angels. Two editions were printed of a 1000 copies
each and the proceeds were deposited in a new fund named the Alan R
Bilimoria Fund, interest to be used for any requirement. Six Libraries
of Congress in the United States hold a copy of our cookery book.
What's On
On the occasion of KZBM's 80th anniversary, 12th November 1991, the
first issue of the What's On was published, becoming a monthly
newsletter. It is sent to all members of KZBM and to many Zarathushti
Associations all over the world; as well as to editiors of Parsiana,
FEZANA Journal and Hamazor magazines.
Both these publications became KZBMs flag ship, making us known
throughout the Zarathushti world. A copy of the Manna was presented to
Her Majesty the Queen, Queen Elizabeth II, on her recent trip to Karachi
in October 1997.
Zarathushti Census
April 1995, a nationwide Zarathushti Census was undertaken and achieved,
being the first complete one. Thereafter a booklet was published
collating the data from the census forms in September 1995. The total
number of Zarathushtis registered in Pakistan were 2,831 persons. One
can safely deduct at least a 100 people, as many of these are
studying/working abroad and have been included.
A&T Directory
March 1996, the first A & T directory was published of the entire
community residing in Pakistan.
March 1997, a second edition of the A & T directory was printed, as the
previous one was by now out of date due to change of addresses in
Karachi and individuals emigrating.
March 1998, an addendum to the exisiting 1997 edition of the A & T
directory was printed and sent to all our members, gratis.
March 1999, updated A & T Directory with a difference including ex-
Karachiites who have email addresses and now living abroad. Available
against donations of Rs 200.
Blood Directory
September 1997, a blood directory was published, listing the donors both
locality wise and blood group wise. A separate section listing all the
names who gave their blood groups but not donors, for easy use.
Services Directory
May 1998, A Services Directory was made available, listing small and
large entrepreneurs of our community.
Evening News
September 1998, The Evening News, a project undertaken by 21 selected
children, coming from all walks of life with a few having learning
disabilities. Imagination was called for to envisage the future 14 years
ahead, when KZBM would be celebrating it's centenary. This was
distributed to all our members. |

The
antilope man with
some of his gang
|
Antilope Deer Robber Escapes from Jail
Last night, antilope deer escaped from jail. Earlier this year he
was arrested by Universe police for robbing Malvina (the ship). The
ship called Malvina was to deliver a cargo of gold to England. When
the antilope deer robber heard this he set sail with his gang of
diver robbers to find the gold. It took them 100,000 years to find
the gold. The antilope deer was thrilled but soon the Universe
police cought him.
Legend says that all the antilopes came and rescued him from jail
and not a bar was broken. The jailer says, “I don’t know, all I was
doing was giving the prisoner food when I heard a herd of antilopes.
They seem to have put me to sleep. All this happened at 90 o’clock.
When I woke up the antilope man had gone. People told me that
antilopes had helped him.”
Police are investigating the escape. |

Editorial
DOWN MEMORY
LANE
I am filled with nostalgia today as I
read about KZBM’s centenary celebration. I was associated with KZBM
when it was not so old and venerable, nor so widely spread across
the globe. The America chapter will be its fourth branch after
successful ones in Canada, Australia and Britain.
KZBM has come a long way in the twenty-first century. I remember the
time when the four-storey high Book Society just started in the
annexe of the Manijeh Mehta Hall, the present Manijeh Mehta Museum
and Art Gallery. At that time only women were allowed to become
members of KZBM, and I remember the riots that took place when men
demanded their rights to join. If my memory serves me correctly,
Cyrus Cowasjee, the husband of the then President Toxy Cowasjee, had
even chained himself to the door in protest. |
|
The
management and staff of Evening News wish KZBM more glory in
the future. Their achievement is truly to be commended in the face
of the mayhem being created by robots (also called robbets) and
antilope deer robbers. The Evening News urges its readers to
practise restraint in dealing with these criminal elements and to
co-operate fully with the Universal Police in their investigation.
One final note — Evening News will be sponsoring a Space Titanic
quiz on Universal Peace Day. The first prize is two round-the-galaxy
tickets courtesy Travel Corp. Keep a look out for more information.

Film Review
Space Titanic
Space Titanic was released this year in 2012. It is Part VIII of the
Titatnic series and stars Leonardo’s son Michaelangelo and Kate
Winslet’s sister Barbara Winslet. The Director of this film is Hilla
Daruvala. The story is about a space ship that crashes with planet
Mars. The hero survives the crash but murders his girlfriend. The
title song of the film My Love Will Go On and On has already busted
all the music charts in the Universe. Don’t miss it. |

Music Review
Robocats Are No.1
Now the Robocats have really hit the chart lists. Right now they are
touring Mars and do you know what? It is very hard to belive they
will be in London on 13 and will be in Australia on 16. So get your
tickets booked or you’ll be left behind. There are rumours that
Clark might be buying his dog a $1,00,000 worth collar. Who knows if
it is true or not. If you want more music news keep on buying the
Evening News. |
