History

dance4life was founded in 2003 by two international marketers - Dennis Karpes and Ilco van der Linde - who were struck by the force of the HIV pandemic. They shared a passion to use their commercial expertise to turn this problem around. They envisioned a world united in pushing back HIV and AIDS, with one message: start dancing, stop AIDS.

dance4life has become an international youth movement. Its purpose is to create social change and empower young people to take action to push back HIV and AIDS. dance4life is about the belief that HIV and AIDS can and will be stopped the moment young people have the power to stand up and say no to unsafe sex.

Kashō

Kashō (嘉祥), also known as Kajō, was a Japanese era name (年号,, nengō,, lit. "year name") after Jōwa and before Ninju. This period spanned the years from June 848 through April 851. The reigning emperors were Ninmyō-tennō (仁明天皇) and Montoku-tennō (文徳天皇).

Change of era

February 9, 848 Kashō gannen (嘉祥元年): The new era name Kashō (meaning "good augury") was created because a white tortoise was discovered in Bungo province, and it was duly presented to the emperor. The previous era ended and the new one commenced in Jōwa 15, on the 13th day of the 6th month of 848.

Events of the Kashō era

February 18, 848 (Kashō 1, 10th day of the 1st month): The dainagon Fujiwara Yoshifusa (904-872) was named udaijin. He was the son of the former sadaijin Fujiwara Fuyutsugu (775-826). Yoshifusa's daughter, Fujiwara no Akira-keiko, became Emperor Montoku's wife and the mother of Emperor Seiwa.

848 (Kashō 1, 6th month): A white tortoise was discovered in Bungo province. As this was an extraordinary thing, all the court officials made their appearances before the emperor with comments about the good augury this tortoise represented.

Kash (film)

Kash (meaning:Puff) is a 2014 indie feature film directed by Souman Bose with Subholina Sen and Souman Bose playing the lead roles.

Plot

Kashi Mehrothra, a youth in his early twenties is heavily influenced by Ram Sen, A "proletariat" who used to make a living by selling biris (small Indian cigarettes) and within a span of few years evolved into a huge capitalist. Ram Sen preached: "বিড়ি উন্নতির শিরি !" (meaning: "Indian cigar is the staircase to success!") Kashi Mehrothra, was heavily influenced by his philosophy as an adolescent. He thought, if a man devoid of any formal education could do so much,he could do all this and more with a more sophisticated intoxicant-per say, a cigarette. Hence, his fantasies of being the "Cigarette King" of India started taking over. He got so much into cigarettes, his friends started calling him Kash, which means a puff or a drag of smoke. Motherless Kash, despite being born into an affluent business family relates more to the Proletarian philosophies. He goes on a journey trying to make his bizarre ambition of opening a cigarette factory. Meanwhile, other forces are at work. And Kashi Mehrothra's melancholic life transforms into a topsy turvy journey, where his life is threatened by creatures from the super natural realm, viz. Jack Ketch. Kash is a story of that journey. A political satire. A horror tale. And all the drama behind a little puff of smoke.
