Ash Wednesday marks the first day of the season of Lent. Lent begins 40 days prior to Easter, not including Sundays. As the first day of Lent, Ash Wednesday comes the day after Shrove Tuesday or Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday), the last day of the Carnival season.

Mardi Gras, Fat Tuesday, Ash Wednesday and Lent
by
Jessie Penn
Mardi Gras is the last day of feasting and ends the day before Lent begins. This is why, in New Orleans, Mardi Gras ends abruptly at midnight as Ash Wednesday begins. Police usher party goers out of the area, while street sweepers clear the debris from the roadway.

Elvis Perkins - Ash Wednesday, A Review
by
Xan Sillem
A blue tinged album that will leave its mark. Elvis Perkins croons, wails and moans through a surreal and melancholy work. "Ash Wednesday" is an assured and heavy debut album from this promising young LA troubadour.

The 2009 Ashes Test
by
Moragh Pitt
With the 2009 Ashes Test Series about to start there is a growing expectation among England cricket fans that it will be just as dramatic as the 2005 Ashes won by the home side 2-1 which was their first victory over the Australian cricket team since 1987. The victory by the Australians some eighteen months later is a painful memory best forgotten by England cricket fans! With the Lions Rugby tour being over the Ashes will take over the sporting center stage.

Thank you to Cardiff and Glamorgan County Cricket Club for putting on a great first Ashes Test Match. I feel I am qualified to give a measured opinion in this regard as a long-term cricket fan (of some thirty years) who has attended between 10 and 15 test matches at various grounds up and down the country.

Fluff the Magic Dragon
by
Carolina Fernandez
A significant date in the secular world will converge with a significant date in the religious world to give me significant pause. April 15th stamps the due date for tax collection and March 1 will mark-literally-those of us who honor Ash Wednesday.
