Bob Dylan, Walls Of Red Wing Oh, the age of the inmates I remember quite freely: No younger than twelve, No older 'n seventeen. Thrown in like bandits And cast off like criminals, Inside the walls, The walls of Red Wing. From the dirty old mess hall You march to the brick wall, Too weary to talk And too tired to sing. Oh, it's all afternoon You remember your home town, Inside the walls, The walls of Red Wing. Oh, the gates are cast iron And the walls are barbed wire. Stay far from the fence With the 'lectricity sting. And it's keep down your head And stay in your number, Inside the walls, The walls of Red Wing. Oh, it's fare thee well To the deep hollow dungeon, Farewell to the boardwalk That takes you to the screen. And farewell to the minutes They threaten you with it, Inside the walls, The walls of Red Wing. It's many a guard That stands around smilin', Holdin' his club Like he was a king. Hopin' to get you Behind a wood pilin', Inside the walls, The walls of Red Wing. The night aimed shadows Through the crossbar windows, And the wind punched hard To make the wall-siding sing. It's many a night I pretended to be a-sleepin', Inside the walls, The walls of Red Wing. As the rain rattled heavy On the bunk-house shingles, And the sounds in the night, They made my ears ring. 'Til the keys of the guards Clicked the tune of the morning, Inside the walls, The walls of Red Wing. Oh, some of us'll end up In St. Cloud Prison, And some of us'll wind up To be lawyers and things, And some of us'll stand up To meet you on your crossroads, From inside the walls, The walls of Red Wing.

Scobie on I'm Not There
I’M NOT THERE (1956-2007) Stephen Scobie Je est un autre—Arthur Rimbaud I’m Not There (2007) In this autumn season of 2007, I can see that I am going to be thinking a lot about the Bob Dylan song known as “I’m Not There (1956).” At least, that is the title given to it on most of its early, bootleg appearances. Now that it has finally been officially released, the sub-title date has been dropped—which is a pity (since it added an element of mystery to the song) but also understandable (since no good explanation of the date has ever been given). “I’m Not There” is perhaps the ultimate Dylan bootleg, and has always been a subject for cult idealization as the most obscure of Dylan’s “lost” songs: a major master- piece that almost no one knows, and which indeed seems to conspire actively against being known. Now, it has become the title of Todd Haynes’s movie I’m Not There, “inspired by the music and many lives of Bob Dylan”—“many” being the operative word. The film is already famous for casting six different actors to play aspects of Dylan at different points in his career. If this strategy is a gimmick, it is a successful one: the film is generating vast amounts of advance publicity, much of it based on the photographs of Cate Blanchett looking, uncannily and androgynously, like 1966 Bob. The film is not due for North American release until late November, though it has played in prestigious festivals like Toronto, New York, and Venice.

The Recording Sessions
Bob Dylan: The Recording Sessions by Michael Krogsgaard, compiled from files available at http://www.punkhart.com/dylan/sessions.html 1 2 Some general information regarding the different sources made available for the study: 1. The Columbia Studios Recording Diaries are books, which for each day of the year (since 1941) list every planned session in the different studios. Information includes: time of the day, name of the studio, name of the producer and the engineers and the name of the artist. For the New York studios one diary is missing, that which covers the period January 1967 to December 1970. For the Nashville studios, the diary for the period 1969 to 1971 is missing. 2. Recording Sheets are lists made during each session and put into each tape box. The sheet records the date, the studio, the artist, which tracks were recorded and the CO number (Columbia's own reference number) for each composition (of which, more later). Each recorded take is marked as complete (C), with a short false start(b) or a long false start (B). It is indicated on these sheet which takes are removed to other tapes for further use. 3. The Tape Boxes themselves also usually contain information about each take and which takes are removed for further use. 4. CO Cards contain information about the CO (CO=Columbia) number and title for each composition and usually also the recording date. The CO numbers are basically a secure identification of each composition but they are not always chronological (for instance: the CO numbers for songs recorded in Nashville are generally higher than CO numbers for songs recorded at the same time in New York), and, confusingly, sometimes one composition has several CO numbers, especially (but not always) if it has been recorded several times at different sessions.

This Keynote Address is brought to you for free and open access by UST Research Online and the University of St. Thomas Law Journal. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Thank you, Andrea,' for that very nice introduction. As many of you know, Andrea will be my law clerk next year. When the symposium's or- ganizers were desperately searching for a last-minute replacement for a luncheon speaker, she said, "I think I know someone who will do it." It would appear that Andrea is a quick study. Obviously she already under- stands me because I did say yes. and I am here today. Indeed, it is a plea- sure to be here with you, even though I am a last-minute replacement. Today's seminar addresses the incarceration crisis. There is a certain bias in this phrase because it indicates how you view the state of our crimi- nal justice system-you see a crisis. What if I did not share this view? Then you might have gotten the wrong speaker. But Andrea did her homework and went back to an article I wrote over ten years ago when I talked about this same issue.' As I heard my words read back to me, they sounded pre- scient somehow-I think I saw this crisis coming.

Walls of Red Wing: an Examination of Culturally-Informed Sentencing, Risk/Need
Walls of Red Wing: An Examination of Culturally-Informed Sentencing, Risk/Need Factors, and Treatment for Peoples of Indigenous Heritage in Canada's Criminal Justice System by Leticia Gutierrez A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Psychology Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2018 Leticia Gutierrez CULTURALLY-RELEVANT SENTENCING, RISK/NEED FACTORS, & TREATMENT i Abstract Given the long-standing over-representation of Indigenous peoples in the criminal justice system in Canada, steps have been taken to better understand and enhance the cultural relevance of sentencing, assessment and treatment. Specifically, changes to legislation and sentencing (e.g., s. 718.2 [e] of the Criminal Code, introduction of conditional sentence orders), as well as operational changes (e.g., the creation of culturally-relevant correctional programming), were introduced in an effort to address over-representation. More recently, the question of whether commonly-used risk assessment measures contain cultural-bias when applied to Indigenous peoples has been argued before the Supreme Court of Canada (i.e., Ewert v. Canada, 2018). Despite these changes over the last two decades, over-representation has increased. To better understand the potential impacts of these legislative and operational changes, as well as to seek to better understand the potentially unique causes of criminal behaviour for Indigenous peoples (i.e., culturally-relevant risk/need factors), three studies were conducted. Study 1 examined the application of conditional sentence orders (CSOs) with a sample of Indigenous offenders (n = 749) compared to Caucasian offenders (n = 1,625).

Freewheelin-On-Line Take Thirtyone
Freewheelin-on-line Take Thirtyone Freewheelin 229 In that wonderful kaleidoscope of people, places and things that goes under the somewhat biblical title of Chronicles Volume 1, Dylan has fingered many an artist who has caught his sight. One such artist is the Expressionist painter Chaime Soutine (1894 – 1944) who Dylan describes as ‘the Jimmy Reed of the art world’ (Chronicles page 175). Chaime Soutine was something of an oddball. The 10th child of a Jewish family living in a Lithuanian ghetto, he eventually took to the brush and settled in Paris in 1911. Being blessed with the same feverish passion that haunted Van Gogh, Soutine produced distorted and violently coloured paintings and on reaching fame he said that if he had failed in his attempt to become a great artist he would probably have given up painting to become a boxer! This sense of a fighting spirit no doubt saw Soutine through some troubling times, including in particular when he was pursued and persecuted by the Gestapo after the invasion of France. The gawky looking spires which make up the backdrop to this months cover are taken from Soutine’s 1933 painting ‘Chartes Cathedral’ which, in 1961 was hanging in the New York’s Museum of Modern Art just as a kid from out of town was bursting on to a nearby street. Standing in front of the cathedral is Doctor Robert in his university robes. I wonder if this is the kind of stage attire that Dylan will be displaying during his up coming tour of the universities in the States? Up above, Oh Mercy Dylan shows us that his hand, which had been recently ungodly injured in a freak accident , was now in a state of complete regeneration.
