Abstract:
As it is in , the preoccupation of Samuel Beckett's is bluntly announced in its title. The play begins with Clov's announcing its end. Hamm will later summarize the play's opening words about ending as if beginnings and endings have not so much been reversed as redoubled, the play ending where it began, with its ending. One complication in this , then, is not that the play has no ending, but that it has too many, or that it has only endings. This paper then explores Beckett's game of perpetuated endings and its implications for theatre.

Abstract:
This article presents a corpus analysis designed to determine the extent to which noun endings in French are reliable predictors of grammatical gender. A corpus of 9,961 nouns appearing in Le Robert Junior Illustré was analysed according to noun endings, which were operationalised as orthographic representations of rhymes, which consist of either a vowel sound (i.e., a nucleus) in the case of vocalic endings or a vowel-plus-consonant blend (i.e., a nucleus and a coda) in the case of consonantal endings. The analysis classified noun endings as reliably masculine, reliably feminine, or ambiguous, by considering as reliable predictors of grammatical gender any noun ending that predicts the gender of least 90 per cent of all nouns in the corpus with that ending. Results reveal that 81 per cent of all feminine nouns and 80 per cent of all masculine nouns in the corpus are rule governed, having endings that systematically predict their gender. These findings, at odds with traditional grammars, are discussed in terms of their pedagogical implications.

Abstract:
The effects of a five-digit memory load on joke and lexical decision tasks were measured. 72 college students read jokes ending with punchlines, consistent endings, or inconsistent endings and decided whether the endings produced jokes. Memory-loaded subjects were slower than nonloaded subjects, particularly on inconsistent endings which were surprising but not coherent with the body of the joke. Memory load had no effect on lexical decision time and did not interact with word frequency. The results supported the claim that working memory serves an integrating role in language comprehension.

Abstract:
The domination of a happy narrative frame has gradually broadened to include different kinds of endings, but a positive resolution is still often expected. Do narratives need an optimistic ending? Do hopeful endings begin to loose their credibility? Should we buy into the Hollywood scripts presenting an ending that solves or completes the plot by the end of its telling? Endings point to a potential future, and culturally we have been conditioned to write this future optimistically. Not everything ends well, however. Sometimes, things just end. Narrative conclusions can be optimistic and have catharsis, but not end with a “happily ever after” (Purnell, 2013).

Abstract:
As a Kentuckian, the past has always seemed to maintain a complex relationship with the present. Subdivisions spread across what were once tobacco fields and plantation estates; Appalachian folkways have long been slowly disappearing due to technological change, outmigration, and environmental degradation. In the poetry collection “pretty sad endings,” I try to ask— as our physical and cultural landscape changes, what are we losing, and what do we gain? And what remains (however transformed)? I use surrealism throughout the manuscript to elevate aspects of contemporary suburbia, Americana, relationships, and popular culture to the level of the mythical and spiritual. By distorting the everyday, I hope to tease out some of the real wonder that might be waiting in unexpected places, such as a cul-de-sac, a freeway billboard, or a drugstore parking lot. In these poems, I also try to create spaces where humor and emotional sincerity can coexist, while maintaining a raw curiosity in the strangeness and power of words themselves. My hope is not just that this collection can communicate some of the joys and hardships and eccentricities of my home, but that it can also speak relevantly about contemporary American life and relationships to readers anywhere.

Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate the differences between 9-ending on promotion prices used by Thai retailers and Swedish retailers. The quantitative research approach is the chosen method in order to evaluate the differences between 9-ending on promotion prices used by Thai retailers and Swedish retailers. The collection of data will be mainly concentrated on primary data through brochures from retailers in both countries. Evaluation of the price endings for advertised products in the brochures from Thai and Swedish retailers founded the distinctions between the use of 9-ending prices in many ways such as the way the retailers used left and right digits for price endings, the way they set the prices compared between the same product category and the same product sub-category.

Abstract:
This paper aims to explore gender differences in reactions to romantic relationship dissolutions. Within the body of research on relationship breakups, attachment theory is frequently mentioned. Empirical data on adult attachment styles and how they relate to gender differences and reactions to separations will also be explored. The issue of gender is prevalent in psychological literature. Such classification regarding reactions to relationship breakups is ambiguous and research should turn to individuals and relationships when exploring breakups.

Abstract:
Since its development, critics of electronic literature have touted all that is “new” about the field, commenting on how these works make revolutionary use of non-linear structure, hyperlinks, and user interaction. Scholars of digital narrative have most often focused their critiques within the paradigms of either the text-centric structuralist model of narrativity or post-structuralist models that implicate the text as fundamentally fluid and dependent upon its reader for meaning. But neither of these approaches can account completely for the unique modes in which digital narratives prompt readerly progression, yet still exist as independent creative artifacts marked by purposive design. I argue that, in both practice and theory, we must approach digital-born narratives as belonging to a third, hybrid paradigm. In contrast to standard critical approaches, I interrogate the presumed “newness” of digital narratives to reveal many aspects of these works that hearken to print predecessors and thus confirm classical narratological theories of structure and authorship. Simultaneously, though, I demonstrate that narrative theory must be revised and expanded to account for some of the innovative techniques inherent to digital-born narrative. Across media formats, theories of narrative beginnings, endings, and authorship contribute to understanding of readerly progress and comprehension. My analysis of Leishman’s electronically animated work Deviant: The Possession of Christian Shaw shows how digital narratives extend theories of narrative beginnings, confirming theoretical suitability of existing rules of notice, expectations for mouseover actions, and the role of institutional and authorial antetexts. My close study of Jackson’s hypertext my body: a Wunderkammer likewise informs scholarship on narrative endings, as my body does not provide a neatly linear plot, and thus does not cleanly correspond to theories of endings that revolve around conceptions of instabilities or tensions. Yet I argue that there is still compelling reason to read for narrative closure, and thus narrative coherence, within this and other digital works. Finally, my inquiry into Pullinger and Joseph’s collaboratively written Flight Paths: A Networked Novel firmly justifies the theory of implied authorship in both print and digital environments and confirms the suitability of this construct to a range of texts.

Abstract:
The paper proposes a method for identifying fingerprints that is resistant to noise and image defects. The method relies on minutiae, bifurcations and endings, which, under the influence of defects, can change their type. Such undesirable changes affect the ridge counting, the topological and other characteristics of the images. It can reduce the reliability of their identification. To compensate for the effect of interference, a topological vector is introduced and its numbering rules for bifurcations and endings are described. A method is proposed for converting topological vectors from one type of minutiae to another. As a result of the cast, topological vectors for bifurcations and endings are numbered alike. This ensures the stability of the ridge counting, the reliability of matching of various topological vectors and, consequently, the minimal identification errors. The method is implemented in the algorithm. The results of testing the proposed method are given.

Abstract:
This investigation builds on the Alvarez et al. (2021) Project Completion Report (PCR) analysis and its aim is to assess the implications of that study for the current portfolio of projects under execution at the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB). We use the sample of PCRs which reached operational closure (CO) in 2017 and 2018 to estimate the impact that design and execution performance characteristics of projects played in the likelihood of ending as successful and/or effective. Based on the estimated coefficients, we construct risk curves to isolate the effect specific characteristics have on the likelihood of a project being classified as unsuccessful/ineffective. We then use the estimated coefficients and, using the actual values for the current portfolio of projects in execution, identify the fraction of the portfolio that is at risk of ending as unsuccessful/ineffective projects. According to our analysis, of the 249 projects assessed, 39 have a 50% or less chance of being successful. Thirteen (13) projects have less than a 10% chance. For about 70% of the projects analyzed, given the characteristics they exhibit, the likelihood that they end up successful has already been curtailed. The type of analysis presented here can help IDB Management identify key performance indicators to keep track of during execution to periodically assess the level of risk it is willing to accept in terms of projects ending unsuccessful/ineffective as rated by the current PCR methodology.
