James Bond and Deficit Financing - A Poem

When counting your profits net,
Ensure that you are not based on debt.

Deficit financing looks good on paper,
A complete contradiction to what appears safer.

The Quick Ratio is a financiers trick,
And is sure to make you sick.

Debt to Equity is in the same vein,
And only adds to your pain. :-(

And so what says the Magic Wand,
Is the Holy Grail the humble Bond ?

Debentures put on your funds a lock,
And are useful only when your company is in the dock !

Stocks and Shares don't augur well,
And in 1929 sounded the death knell,

Of the global economy.
Coming back to the Bond,

Oh ! i'm confused.
This time I'm talking about James.... :-)

It isn't,
Quite the same.

double-o-seven !!!,
I'm in the Seventh Heaven.

Finance is not for me,
As far as I can see.

James is the man for me ....
Even if I have to pay a hefty fee.

Catch you soon,
First Day, First Show.

Adios !!! 😇

Chess blogging - Chessbase is back with a bang !

In view of my keen interest in UI for applications and websites, I feel it necessary to promote an investigation of the new play-chess interface on www.chessbase.com . * It is minimalistic * Allows you to play as Guest * Allows you to choose from different time-controls * Allows you to test your skills vis-a-vis opponents from across the globe Have a look at this interface, that is impressive from a UI developers point-of-view, and very conducive for a chess player to test his wits !  Whoa !  😇😇😇

B Trees🌲🌳🌴 databases and CHESS☺

Binary trees are a specific version of decision trees that have two nodes,one parent and two children, and this concept is used in database programming with relational databases like SQL server for creating in clustered and non clustered indexes. Alpha beta pruning together with B tree searches makeup the basis of chess programming. I have played a program that reached its thought horizon and then had a bizarre response inspite of  having an advantage of one pawn♟️
