... hand held weather stations take about every weather factor into consideration. ... Very sophisticated ones not only measure weather conditions every second but make E.T. or throttle stop predictions every 4 seconds. A sophisticated drag racing weather station will allow you to store data on as many as 256 previous runs and performs an analysis to give you a prediction based on the weather conditions instantly. It can keep and use separate databases for separate vehicles, tracks, or classes. Some of the really sophisticated stations have a prediction deviation function [which] gives a reliability value of the prediction. It gives you a margin of error based on the information in the database that you chose. Within the last few years, windmeters have been added to the weather station box of tricks.  1, fiche 1, Anglais, - hand%20held%20weather%20station

The Kestrel line of wind meters or anemometers... in less than 60 seconds, provide the answer to the major spraying season question that haunts producers each morning :"How windy is it?" The Kestrel 1000... gives a fast answer to wind speed average and gusts.... the model 2000 will add temperature and for those really cold days on the sprayer, add wind chill to that list. The 3000 adds humidity, dew point and heat stress index.... But for an all out weather station you can hold in the palm of your hand, the Kestrel 4000 provides all of this, in addition to wet bulb, altitude, air density and barometric pressure. Most importantly, 250 of these readings can be recorded in the device's memory and later transferred to the farm computer.... Michael Naughton of Nielsen Keller-man said the company released the 1000 in 1999 with the intention of it being a tool for sailors and outdoor sports and weather enthusiasts. "Farmers are turning out to be a really big part of our business. The 4000 is really popular with them. We were surprised by the demand for little hand-held weather stations, "he said.  2, fiche 1, Anglais, - hand%20held%20weather%20station

In grain markets, which normally are carrying charge markets, there are a number of occasions when the price structure may become inverted. One is the difference in the supply situation between a contract month that falls at the end of a crop year and one which follows the new harvest. Particularly in years when there is a small carryover, there may well be a higher price in the old crop delivery month because of the difference in the supply and demand balance between the two months. Short-term supply and demand imbalances can also cause prices to invert. A sudden surge in demand or a shortfall in supply may cause the near contract to move higher, while having little or no effect on the further contracts.  2, fiche 2, Anglais, - grain%20market

Dans les marchés de grains, qui sont habituellement des marchés à frais obligatoires, il se présente divers cas où la structure de prix peut devenir inversée. Un cas de ce genre serait celui où l'offre est différente entre un mois de contrat qui tombe à la fin d'une campagne agricole et un autre qui suit la nouvelle récolte. Particulièrement dans les années où les surplus sont minces, il peut très bien arriver que le prix soit plus élevé dans le mois de livraison de l'ancienne récolte en raison d'une demande ou d'une offre excédentaire entre les deux mois. Un équilibre entre l'offre et la demande à court terme peut également entraîner une inversion des prix. Une hausse soudaine de la demande ou une insuffisance de l'offre peuvent faire monter le prix du contrat en rapproché, tout en ayant un effet minime, sinon aucun, sur le prix des contrats dans l'éloigné.  1, fiche 2, Français, - march%C3%A9%20de%20grains

(...) if unemployment is at 6 per cent, and every increase in aggregate dollar spending(whether brought about by a private-investment boom, or by expansionary macroeconomic policy) seems merely to result in a fast bidding up of wages of those already employed with little effect on job opportunities for those who apparently have the wrong skills and talents in terms of what employers demand, then all will agree that structural unemployment appears to be high.  1, fiche 4, Anglais, - aggregate%20dollar%20spending

Case of inelastic derived demand. Suppose that a particular building-trades union, such as the electricians’, raises wages. This case emphasizes the factors making for inelastic demand and a small resulting drop in employment of electricians.(1) Note that in the short run, employers cannot substitute other factors-such as machines or plasterers-for electricians.(2) Do not forget the importance of being unimportant : The total cost of a house will be little affected by a change in the wage rate of electricians alone. This fact will tend to cause only a mild reduction of employment as a result of an increase in their wages.(3) Suppose there is a great housing shortage so that people feel they need homes desperately. Inelasticity of demand for the final product, housing, will lower the derived elasticity for electricians.(4) Suppose that all practicing electricians must be in the union, so that an increase in wages is not followed by a great increase in nonunion labor supplied. This inelasticity of supply of other factors will tend to make the demand for union electricians inelastic.(5) Suppose, finally, that administered pricing or public regulation will not permit the prices at which houses are available to change much. This will make for a little quantity of houses sold and hence inelastic demand for the factors that build house.  1, fiche 6, Anglais, - inelastic%20derived%20demand
