“Two-factor economics makes it clear that our economic problem is not what one-factor (labor-centric) thinkers assert: an inequitable distribution of income.

“The last few years I've been doing the Middle East thing, and it's a tough decision whether to go there and try and knock off some events as a European Tour member, this year I think overall looking at my results, I played a little bit better on the West Coast than I have in the Middle East, so that was another determining factor for coming back here to an event that I have had some success in the past.” ThinkingTryingYearsLittlesLastsPastSuccessBitsDecisionResultsMiddleEventsMembersLittle BitToughWestEastFactorsMiddle EastCoastComing BackWest CoastTough Decisions Author:Luke Donald
“Even after rowing in all these pieces, it's often hard to determine who will be selected because the decisive factor in seat racing is speed not margin. Boat X beats boat Y by two lengths over 1000 meters in a time of 2:54. After exchanging "Dave" from X to Y for "Scott," Boat X beats boat Y by one length in a time of 2:51. From the rower's perspective, the result is that Dave beats Scott by a length. But in Mike's eyes, Scott beats Dave because on the second piece, X was three seconds faster-even though it only beat Y by a length.” TwoHardEyeThreeResultsPiecesPerspectiveBeatsDetermineSpeedFactorsBoatFasterSeatsLengthSecondsRacingMikeMarginsSelectedMeterRowingDaveExchanging Author:Chris Ahrens
