 The Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod - ''Remember, That You Are Dust . . .''
Originally, ashes were reserved only for public penitents—i.e., murderers, adulterers and others who had fallen away from the church because of grave public sin but desired reconciliation.
But the ashes are also made in the sign of the cross—the very instrument by which our Lord took upon himself the punishment for our sin, in our place.
On this past Ash Wednesday I imposed the ashes upon foreheads of all shapes and sizes, under gray, receding hair and on smooth baby skin.

 Mark Wolff, Tenor: Twice between numbers   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-30)
These ink drawings catch Mark in a typical musician's activity: waiting......
On the left, he ponders something in the Ash Wednesday service, during a period in which the tenors were out (not singing), and something else was underway: a meditation, performance of music by others, or any of a number of other things.
As a musician, he must wait before it is time to sing again, but in this case, not too long - tenor reentry will occur shortly.

 Elvis is in the building - The Boston Globe
Such simple grace and understated force materialize rarely, so when a musician like Perkins arrives, with barely a career to call his own, all you can do is nod and tell a friend and pray that he picks a right-hearted record label.
''Ash Wednesday" is a collection of chronologically sequenced songs written before and after the death of the musician's mother -- actress and photographer Berry Berenson, a passenger on American Airlines Flight 11, which flew into the World Trade Center on 9/11.
The loss of both parents to ''two of the greatest tragedies of our time," as the blurred, typewritten liner notes of ''Ash Wednesday" point out, is woven indelibly into Perkins's work.

Because Ash, having spent the better part of their formative years in the music industry, have finally matured into a proper rock band.
For me, Ash's strength in their previous albums was their ability to mix it up a bit - soaring melodies in one song followed by a crashing rock song.
This album is a great return for Ash, who quite frankly should already be one of the biggest bands in the world if it depended on pure songwriting talent.

Where the established parties are saying that the voters are broken, we are saying it's the law that is broken.
Considering that the Public Domain is designed to foster modification, it only makes sense that a "compiled work" such as a software binary or lossy-compressed digital video wouldn't be useful, and therefore shouldn't be sufficient to use as collateral to earn copyright protection.
At first, I thought that the views of the Pirate Party were even a bit too extreme, but after reading a bit deeper, it seems that I agree with them on almost everything - reward the author for a reasonable amount of time, and don't patent the third world into a slow, painful death.

 San Diego CityBEAT
If a musician lives his whole life to make his first record, then Perkins made good on his life until now with Ash Wednesday—his hauntingly sad yet beautiful debut album, which plays out like a 32-year tale of love and loss.
Once these things are known about Perkins—who doesn’t attempt to hide them or refuse to talk about them, as some might—it’s hard not to get overtly analytical with the lyrics on Ash Wednesday.
On the title track, with its imagery of fire and “tear gas clouds,” Perkins sounds like a sleep-deprived drunk who’s just a little self-conscious of the fact that he is still conscious.
