  A restorative and resonant memoir of a year in the life of an aging shepherd 
   
   
   
  For fifty years, Barbara McLean has tended a flock of Border Leicester sheep on her small Ontario farm, Lambsquarters. In Shepherd's Sight she shares the crises, pleasures, and challenges of farm life over the course of a year. Now in her seventies, McLean faces a new problem: how much longer she can continue with the physically taxing work that is her central source of meaning and satisfaction. 
   
   
   
  Through her unsentimental gaze, we witness the highs and heartbreaks of delivering and rearing lambs, the shearing and spinning of wool, the wildlife in the woods (and occasionally in the house), and the garden produce moving from seed to harvest to table. Even after half a century on this land, McLean is still making fresh observations, and she shares them in evocative, elegant prose. As she moves through the calendar year, she also reflects on years past, offering a long view on climate, stewardship, and agriculture. 
   
   
   
  With its vivid description and absorbing storytelling, Shepherd's Sight offers an unforgettable glimpse of a life lived on the land.

  Book one: 
  If you are considering this line of work, it is important that you become familiar with what is currently available in the marketplace. While many companies simply want COBOL programmers to write codes that they can use, others will want a variety of specific tasks completed. 
  If you are looking for a new career and want something that will provide stability, then COBOL programming may be the right path for you. 
  Book two: 
  One of the reasons why COBOL programming is preferred over other languages is because of its versatility. COBOL can be used to program just about anything, depending on which library modules are selected for use in a particular program.  
  COBOL database interaction is a set of techniques that allow us to interact with databases. COBOL database interaction is used to retrieve, store, and modify specific records in a database table. It is done by modifying row values. This feature of COBOL allows us to perform everyday tasks, such as deleting or updating records in a database table, while restoring the original state of the data after the updated records have been deleted. 
  Book three: 
  This book provides basic principles and techniques for writing efficient high-level COBOL programs. It is also a practical guide to developing high-performance applications by optimizing both COBOL code and the application. 
  The book introduces essential concepts of performance analysis and optimization. It also covers many tools and techniques including some advanced techniques, such as parallelization, multiprocessing, virtual machines, and XML parsing. With the help of hands-on examples, real-world case studies, process maps, and a full-scale application, this book teaches professionals and students alike how to build high-performance applications using the latest techniques.

  This book explains the properties for each type of spring, plus essential materials and methods. Few mechanical devices are entirely devoid of springs of one sort or another, but satisfactory operation rests on details such as spring strength and degree of movement. Yet information on calculating and making springs is not easily available. Designing springs can be difficult due to the number of variables and the complexity of the formula. The book also introduces the designer to charts and nomograms, which greatly simplify the process. Topics include tension and compression spring principles, compression and spring design, examples for winding coil springs, how to design, make, and coil a leaf spring, torsion spring, and I.C. engine valve springs.
