My husband and I operate a farm with over 300 cows. "Tasks" do not stop, but the pleasure of working outside with animals
Amelia and Russell Kent Kent own farms and the term livestock in southern Louisiana and Mississippi. Operations are primarily cow / calf, but also raise and sell replacement heifers and home products to local restaurants in New Orleans and Baton Rouge. They are part of a new generation of American farmers and accepted openly about his life and his profession for a number of The Guardian was made America work. Add more questions to Amelia and Russell in the comments and will respond later today and tomorrow in the interruptions of their "jobs."
1. What is your typical day?
There is no typical day. We need to check our stock several times a week throughout the year. It is a task in itself, we have more than 300 head of cows and replacement heifers in seven different locations within 60 miles.
In winter, the cows calve, so we have to check every day. We also need hay on a regular basis and limit livestock grazing in winter ryegrass. In spring and summer, we conduct our actions herd health, cut hay and maintain pasture. We sell our calves for delivery in mid-August, most of the local restaurants, and then continue working in the hay field, which has quickly transitions to plant our winter feed. In November, we took our cycle delivery.
2. What is the biggest mistake I made while working?
one of us usually a truck stuck in the mud when we know we should not be driven in wet conditions. Especially during the last rainfall records winter conditions, we were stuck at least every week!
3. What is the craziest thing the unexpected / happened to you at work?
most unexpected is that we had great camaraderie among our neighbors and friends in the farming community. The willingness of people able and willing to help others is humiliating, whether the assistance throughout the year, the day of the sale, or just looking for himself.
- There is a real sense of community in the area of ??Clinton (Louisiana), we are privileged to live and have our farm. My husband grew up in it, but it's new to me. I grew up on family farms and ranches in Colorado and Louisiana, where we help, but they often have a price.
- 4. There has been much talk lately about people who want to balance work / life. Does your job require?

Theresa May should not now try to undermine a judicial system that allowed him to get a political victory for the book
justice delayed is justice denied - all refused. The State has the right to deport people considered a threat. The British public has a right to justice, such as the possible victim of deportation. For Britain to become a refuge for fallen dictators, mass murderers, tax evaders and villains is safe or healthy.
I have no problem sending people home, in the category of Abu Qatada, who came with false documents, became an ally and advisor to the terrorist and then cited fear of torture as a reason not to be expelled. These people are at risk. They swim in a cloudy ocean and must bear the consequences. British citizens are entitled to a benefit of the doubt, but the state has the right to demand good behavior of visitors or potential citizens or send them home.
- said Abu Qatada to clearly falls into the category of the contemporary ranting cleric Abu Hamza. It is closer to the revolutionary tradition tramp London gave refuge throughout history. The city should be wide enough to cover even their activities deserve to see. From 10 years and ? 1.7 million to make a house was a waste. Emerged from post-9/11 hysteria, when we now know that human rights are of little interest to the British and American governments.
- British judicial system and the Minister of Interior, Theresa May, at least played by the book case. Qatada would have left America a red list of a drone attack, kidnapping or Guantanamo Bay. Demanding, and apparently to ensure fair treatment for Qatada to Jordan May has probably done more to improve civil rights in this country than any other.
but should not spoil to weaken a system that has such a political coup. She cites ongoing judicial review to cover multiple extensions monitoring and control of the state. It can not now claim to be weakened.
The man behind the hit sitcom in Catholic guilt, the power of Twitter and how it arrived on the scene Ladykillers Ladykillers

is back in the West End. What were the difficulties in transferring a movie scene?
The hardest part was getting rid of the body. A rule that I propose is that the characters should not be able to leave the house. I broke once - I left the tracks [to get rid of body] - and I'd rather not have it because I thought it would be a pure play in the house. It would also make theater that adhere to this room.
The film is designed as a classic comedy. Is there such a thing as timeless humor?
This is a good question. Vi Some Like It Hot the other day. Should be about 60 years old and still stands, but it is more than two hours and should not be. Some scenes are over-explained. Our ability to process information - we can do a lot faster now. Our experience in the stories decoding is such little it takes to find out what happens. I do not think it changes the atmosphere, but the framework.
Are we processing faster because social media?
Everything affects the way stories are told. So many people use and vine [a mobile application that lets you share short videos]. People make comedy films seven seconds now are pretty amazing. It's a whole new vocabulary and I love it.

No, nothing that involved. There have been times when a joke and dream I wake up and it's something like. "A man sees a bush, but it is actually a shrub, a car" I had a recent tweet came to me in a dream and doing the work [joke]. I stopped telling jokes on Twitter. I'll have to start all over again.
One of the best jokes of Twitter was when he made a rumor that Osama bin Laden was caught watching your sitcom,
The IT Crowd [Linehan tweeted: "Does anyone have confirmation that Osama looked

. I see he is a big fan.
Yes, I somehow do. You must provide a different way to be fun for children. They learn the rhythm of a joke. I trained to wait for the good laugh, so I'm never sure if you really think I'm funny or laugh because they know it is the right time to do it.
Before success Father Ted you and co-writer Arthur Mathews wrote a short-lived sitcom called
Paris did not obtain remission in after the first round in 1994 service. What happened?
- It was Paris in the 1920s and Alexei Sayle acted as a frustrated artist capitals seeing things that happen in the world of literature and art. It was then that I realized the script was rewritten, as they say. We refuse point blank to reduce the script to the correct length, so that we end up with performances that were too long. The other problem is that we decided to paint the background and, therefore, all seemed false, unfounded in any way. All cried all the time and this land once set up, all players hit the same high volume. The good thing is that it really gave me a shock. I realized that I had to keep things very closely. Everything was important.
- You were raised Catholic Dublin. Does your family fear

approaches promoted by states like New York gaining political recognition than just locking people up is not the solution
last month brought good news for those concerned about the rate of incarceration in the United States after decades of expansion, it seems that the number of Americans in prison or jail began to decline. A closer look at the figures reveals that much of this reduction was driven by a handful of states - places like California, Michigan, New Jersey and New York - that have reduced their lists of prison by tens of thousands of prisoners during the last two years.
The history of New York is particularly worth exploring because, in its prison rolls have declined, so, too, a crime. According to a recent report (pdf) of the Vera Institute of Justice, the JFA Institute and the Brennan Center for Justice, the prison population in New York fell by 17% between 2000 and 2009 - about 71,000 to 59,000 people. Equally important, the count in the prison system in New York has dropped 40%, from nearly 22,000 in 1991 to 13,200 in 2009. In fact, it seems that New York City is the engine of the prison and the prison state decline. And, as has been well documented, crime is down in the city. There was a record low 414 murders in 2012 (whereas in 1990 there were over 2400)
What is happening here? How New York has been able to reduce crime and imprisonment at the same time? The short answer is that nobody knows for sure. As Michael Jacobson of the Vera Institute of Justice said, the precise causes "will be discussed in the social sciences until the sun reaches the earth."
- nonprofit organizations such as the Centre for alternative sentencing and employment services and employment center offers worked with the justice system to provide community-based alternatives to traditional sanctions, including drug treatment and vocational training for more than a generation. In recent years, joined dozens of drug courts, mental health courts and community courts were created by the judiciary of the State of New York under the direction of Judge Jonathan Lippman linking offenders to social services and the restoration of the community, rather than incarceration.
In New York, the political authorities have come to recognize that alternatives to incarceration should be embraced, not scorned. In fact, drug courts to expand infrastructure in New York was a central element of the reform of the Rockefeller drug laws in 2009. This bipartisan effort to reform improves the discretion of judges in New York to send the infringement court offenders in drugs and other forms of treatment, rather than long prison sentences.
