# Lesson 7.3: Comparative and Superlative
## Comparative

The comparative is formed in two ways, but which can not be applied to all adjectives:
a) With the word πιο (= more) and the adjective. It is this way which is used most, both orally and in writing. In some cases, in a typical style, it is used in its place the word πλέον, e.g.
Το αεροπλάνο είναι πιο γρήγορο από το τρένο. (=The plane is faster than the train).
Ο υπουργός αποδείχτηκε πλέον ενημερωμένος όλων των παρισταμένων.(=The minister turned out to be more informed than all those present). "Noun 1 (nominative) είναι πιο adjective από noun 2 (accusative)".
E.g. Το τραπέζι είναι πιο μεγάλο από την καρέκλα
The adjective has to agree with the first noun.

# Comparisons

Comparisons of adjectives like -er and -est in English are expressed using the endings -τερος and -τατος:
| πλούσιος | rich |
| πλουσιότερος | richer |
| ο πλουσιότατος | the richest |
| ένας πλούσιος πολιτικός | a rich politician |
| ένας πλουσιότερος πολιτικός | a richer politician |
| ο πλουσιότατος πολιτικός | the richest politician |
| η πλουσιότατη βασίλισσα | the richest queen |
Note the shift in the accent toward the end of the word. The common word μεγάλος, big, has the irregular form μεγαλύτερος.
The word πιο can be used instead:
| Αυτός ο πολιτικός είναι πιο πλούσιος. | That politician is richer. |
| Αυτός ο πολιτικός είναι ο πιο πλούσιος. | That politician is the richest. |
Vocabulary:
| πολύ | much |
| πολλοί | many |
| πόσος | how much |
| πόσοι | how many |
| περισσότερος | more |
| ελάχιστος | least |
| λίγο | a little |
| λίγοι | a few |
| τόσο ... όσο ... | as ... as ... |
| κοντά | almost (used with numbers and amounts) |
| αρκετά | enough |
| πάρα πολύ | very much |

# Personal Finance/Retirement

Retirement planning is a multidimensional field. Many of us approach retirement planning from only an investment point of view. This perspective is too limited for dealing with the diversified needs that we may have from our retirement plan.
For an effective retirement planning, you should take into account following factors and decide the type of planning to be done:
* Employer provided retirement plans
* Social security measures available
* Taxation issues
* Insurance coverage
* Investments
* Health care requirements
* Changes in lifestyle
Setting aside of funds during the earning span of an individual and channeling the funds in a secure and remunerative manner with a view to achieving the present and future objectives is an important aspect of retirement planning as also in the case of a comprehensive financial planning. It makes sense to create a well balanced portfolio that suites your retirement planning objectives. Strategic Approach to Retirement Planning
The word strategy refers to planned efforts being implemented to reach the predetermined objective. Therefore, the activities are to be prioritized and directions are to be defined with reference to the goal set.
Strategic approach to retirement planning will include:
* Analysis of the available retirement benefits from various sources, such as the State, the employer, etc. to arrive at the additional needs to be met
* Dependency needs of self and other family members requiring continued income flow
* Anticipation of possible changes to the employment conditions and the family circumstances which may require transformation and the continued innovations in the field of medicine and microbiology. Require changes to the retirement plan
* Decision on the savings pattern out of the present income to build the required corpus for the visualized and prioritized needs
* Proper selection of investment strategies on the basis of defined yield and rate of accumulation
* Analysis of risk elements arising during the process
* Building flexibility for reshuffling of investment portfolio in case of a need arises.
# Personal Finance/Tax Advantaged Savings

Ideally, you should be saving a portion of all of your earnings for your retirement. A recommended amount is usually a minimum of 10% of your income. However, the amount you need to save depends on the estimated growth in value, the number of years you have until retirement, the income you will require and many other factors.
# Personal Finance/Passive Income

This section describes earning income from Passive Income, activities such as rental property, vending machines or other revenue streams that are not based on contractual services or salaried positions.
If you are active blogger you can even think of hosting online ads from services like google-adsense.
Creating online content which can be published to get advertising revenue is also one of growing passive income option. Publishing videos on youtube is one such method.

## Production Process

The production process in video is very similar to film. This is due to many reasons, but the main one is that motion pictures have created a workflow process that makes sense and works. Therefore video productions generally proceed through the following phases: Development, Preproduction, Production, Postproduction, and Distribution.

# Movie Making Manual/Digital Video/Introduction

Previous | Contents

## Introduction

This book is intended as a compendium to the Movie Making Manual, or a ‘Volume 2’ which addresses the specific needs and concerns of Digital Video Production in contrast to using film as a recording medium. Digital Video uses the common abbreviation of DV, and this book will use DV and DVP (Digital Video Production) frequently. Many of the concepts and techniques used for creating moving images using film is the same or similar as when using DV, however many tools and techniques used for each medium are specific to that application. This book concentrates specifically on video production techniques concentrating on digital video rather than analog since analog is all but an obsolete technology. This book also assumes the reader is at least somewhat proficient with the basic terminology of video production and computer use so not every little thing will be spelled out, however there is an appendix with abbreviations, definitions, and terms to assist as much as possible.

Honestly how many different ways can one put an idea on paper? Scripting is scripting no matter what the recording medium is. DV may tend to use more AV side-by-side style scripting over the classical movie script, but other than that the conception stage is not where the differences lie.
That being said, solid development and planning leads to a superior final product. The script is the absolute bare rock foundation for a project. A bad script can ruin even the best production while even the best script can not save a bad production. Like a damaged seed will create a damaged plant, a bad script will create a damaged film. Evaluating a script for quality and production feasibility is the skill and art of a Producer.
To help filmmakers create scripts easier do not use Microsoft Word. Formatting and all that mess is a major hassle. There are a variety of great pay for software programs out there that will format a script to industry standards. The following options are presented in alphabetical order:
* Celtx.
* Final Draft. This is the program I (user:film8ker) but really that’s only because I had a friend that shared it with me. It’s very easy to use and works well. The new Final Draft AV looks very promising and I hope to get it soon.
* Movie Magic. Some people swear that they will never use another program and other people hate it and will never touch it. Personally I think it’s just as functional as the other programs, however if you pay the extra money to buy Movie Magic Budgeting, Movie Magic Scheduler, and Movie Magic Contracts, the products work well as a package.
* Page2Stage. It’s now FREE! Other than that it looks comparable to Final Draft. You have to have a torrent client to download it, but you can’t beat legally Free!

# Movie Making Manual/Effects/Chroma Key

This category is part of the Movie Making Manual
The process of chroma keying a shot has two sections: shooting and post production. Chroma key compositing, or chroma keying, is a special effect for compositing two images together based on color hues. Chroma key is generally considered as "green screen" but can be any colour. Green and Blue are chosen because those colours are the farthest away from skin tone.

## Basic Steps

* First, you need to choose your background colour.
* Set up your lights
* Set up your camera set exposure
* Take a few test shots with actor to confirm exposure
* Shoot footage

#### Does it have to be Green?

No, you can use any colour screen you wish. Any compositing software worth its place in this world will be able to chroma-key any colour however, Blue and Green are often chosen because the human skin contains very little blue or green pigment. Green screens are often used for shoots outside as sunlight can register on a camera as "blue" causing problems when chroma keying. Also, blue screens can be harder to chroma-key due to the increase of digital noise primarily found in the blue channel of video files.

## General tips

* Make sure the lens is clean and filters aren't usually a good idea. Diffusion can make a key very hard to pull.
* Avoid using the same colour in the actor's clothes as in the green screen.
* One way to check that your exposure is about correct is to place a bit of white card under the key light and then view the scene through a green filter. The white card should "disappear" against the green screen.
* The higher the bitrate, the more colour information, the easier the keying, all lossy compression formats will result in decreased edge detail.
* Aim to use the highest bit depth you can, 4:4:4 is ideal but usually unrealistic.

### Lighting

* Light the background evenly and brightly, but not overexposed.
* Light you character adequately paying close attention to backlights to isolate character.

### Spill

Spill is reflected light bouncing onto the actors, it can also wrap around the actors. To avoid spill:
* Stand as far back from the green screen as you can.
* Light you character adequately.
Standing away from your background can also avoid shadows.

### Other

* Shoot with the lowest ISO you can to avoid grain which can make keying hard.
* Shoot with a higher shutter speed (>1/100th) to avoid motion blur.

## Post-Production: Pulling a Key

* Take your footage into your preferred VFX software.
* Create a garbage matte to remove any objects.
* Drag your Chroma key plugin onto your footage.
* Select the pen tool and choose a colour near the edge of your character.
* Adjust your settings to suit your footage.
* Play through the footage to verify the key was successful.
* Add a choker if the footage is looking sharp or jagged.

## Tools

* Adobe (Keylight)
** Premiere Pro
** After Effects
* Sony Vegas
* Autodesk Combustion
* Final Cut
* Wax 2.0

# Ordinary Differential Equations/Successive Approximations

$y'=f(x,y)$ has a solution $y$ satisfying the initial condition $y(x_{0})=y_{0}$, then it must satisfy the following integral equation:
$y=y_{0}+\int _{x_{0}}^{x}f(t,y(t))dt$
Now we will solve this equation by the method of successive approximations.
Define $y_{1}$ as:
$y_{1}=y_{0}+\int _{x_{0}}^{x}f(t,y_{0})dt$
And define $y_{n}$ as
$y_{n}=y_{0}+\int _{x_{0}}^{x}f(t,y_{n-1})dt$
We will now prove that:
* If $f(x,y)$ is bounded and the Lipschitz condition is satisfied, then the sequence of functions converges to a continuous function
* This function satisfies the differential equation
* This is the unique solution to this differential equation with the given initial condition.

## Proof

First, we prove that $y_{n}$ lies in the box, meaning that $|y_{n}(x)-y_{0}|<{\frac {1}{2}}h$. We prove this by induction. First, it is obvious that $|y_{1}(x)-y_{0}|\leq {\frac {1}{2}}h$. Now suppose that $|y_{n-1}(x)-y_{0}|\leq {\frac {1}{2}}h$. Then $|f(t,y_{n-1}(t))|\leq M$ so that
$|y_{n}(x)-y_{0}|\leq \int _{x_{0}}^{x}|f(t,y_{n-1}(t))|dt\leq M(x-x_{0})\leq {\frac {1}{2}}Mw\leq {\frac {1}{2}}h$. This proves the case when $x_{0}<x$, and the case when $x<x_{0}$ is proven similarily.
We will now prove by induction that $|y_{n}(x)-y_{n-1}(x)|<{\frac {MK^{n-1}}{n!}}(x-x_{0})^{n}$. First, it is obvious that $|y_{1}(x)-y_{0}|<M(x-x_{0})$. Now suppose that it is true up to n-1. Then
$|y_{n}(x)-y_{n-1}(x)|\leq \int _{x_{0}}^{x}|f(t,y_{n-1}(t))-f(t,y_{n-2}(t))|dt<\int _{x_{0}}^{x}K|y_{n-1}(t)-y_{n-2}(t)|dt$ due to the Lipschitz condition.
Now,
$|y_{n}(x)-y_{n-1}(x)|<{\frac {MK^{n-1}}{(n-1)!}}\int _{x_{0}}^{x}||u-x_{0}|^{n-1}du={\frac {MK^{n-1}}{n!}}|x-x_{0}|^{n}$.
Therefore, the series of series $y_{0}+\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }(y_{n}(x)-y_{n-1}(x))$ is absolutely and uniformly convergent for $|x-x_{0}|\leq {\frac {1}{2}}w$ because it is less than the exponential function.
Therefore, the limit function $y(x)=y_{0}+\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }(y_{n}(x)-y_{n-1}(x))=\lim _{n\rightarrow \infty }y_{n}(x)$ exists and is a continuous function for $|x-x_{0}|\leq {\frac {1}{2}}w$.
Now we will prove that this limit function satisfies the differential equation.
# Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Derrick
## Overview

Peregrine Derrick is mentioned as being one of the Beaters in the Slytherin Quidditch team.

## Role in the Books
### Prisoner of Azkaban

Derrick is one of two Beaters who attempts to injure Harry Potter in the Slytherin / Gryffindor final. (The other is Bole.) He is unsuccessful, being out-maneuvered by Harry.

### Order of the Phoenix

Angelina Johnson mentions Derrick (and Bole, too) in passing, saying that she always was surprised that Derrick and Bole could make it down to the Quidditch pitch without needing signs.

## Weaknesses

Angelina's comments indicate that she does not consider Derrick's intellect to be among the strongest. We can't be certain whether this is true judgement or simple inter-house rivalry, but the "traps" he and Bole try to lay for Harry do seem to be relatively easy for Harry to out-think.

# Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Crabbe, Sr.
## Overview

Crabbe, Sr. is the father of Vincent Crabbe- one of Draco Malfoy's sidekicks. He is also one of Lord Voldemort's Death Eaters alongside Lucius Malfoy and Goyle.

## Role in the Books
### Goblet of Fire

When Lord Voldemort summons his Death Eaters after returning to life, he addresses one of them as Crabbe, and asks him if he will do better next time, and Crabbe promises he will.
When Harry later names Crabbe as one of the Death Eaters present in the graveyard, Cornelius Fudge dismisses that, saying he had already been tried and released, and Harry could have gotten his name from the old news stories.

### Order of the Phoenix

Crabbe, Sr. is one of the twelve Death Eaters who take part in the Battle at the Ministry. His role is not entirely certain -- when Lucius Malfoy is sending pairs off to hunt for Harry Potter and the students with him, he is partnered with Rabastan Lestrange. Both of them are said to be the Death Eaters Harry, Hermione and Neville first encounter, with Crabbe getting stunned and falling into a time jar, giving him a baby's head.

### Deathly Hallows

During the Battle at Hogwarts, Crabbe Sr. and Crabbe Jr. fight for Voldemort. Very little is seen of Crabbe Sr. during this time.

## Weaknesses

Much like his son, he doesn't seem to be very intelligent.

## Relationships with Other Characters

The relationship that Crabbe Sr. has with Lucius Malfoy seems similar, from what little we see of it, to the relationship Crabbe Jr. has with Draco Malfoy. We are uncertain whether this continues after Malfoy's fall from grace.

## Questions

Study questions are meant to be left for each student to answer; please don't answer them here.
* What are some similarities between Crabbe and Crabbe? (Father and Son)
* What are some differences between Crabbe and Crabbe? (Father and Son)
# Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Dedalus Diggle
## Overview

Dedalus Diggle is a member of the original Order of the Phoenix, and has survived to be a part of the next Wizarding War. He is very small wizard, who seems to be rather over-exuberant.

## Role in the Books
### Philosopher's Stone

When Lord Voldemort is defeated, there is mention on the Muggle news that someone seems to be setting off fireworks in Kent for no good reason. Professor McGonagall mentions that she thinks it is Dedalus Diggle doing it; she says he never had much sense.
Before he is identified to us, on the day after Voldemort's initial defeat, he apparently stops Vernon Dursley to invite him to celebrate. Diggle is later seen bowing to Harry in a store, although Harry does not recognize him.
The first time we actually see Dedalus Diggle and have a name given for him is in the Leaky Cauldron, when Hagrid introduces Harry to the witches and wizards there. Diggle is overjoyed that Harry remembers him, dropping his top hat in his excitement.

### Order of the Phoenix

Dedalus Diggle is a member of the Advance Guard, the group of wizards that Alastor Moody brings to Privet Drive to bring Harry to the Headquarters of the Order. Other members of the Advance Guard are Nymphadora Tonks, Hestia Jones, Sturgis Podmore, Emmeline Vance, Kingsley Shacklebolt, Elphias Doge, and Remus Lupin. Dedalus Diggle, as usual, is extremely pleased when Lupin introduces him again to Harry, dropping his top hat in his excitement.

### Deathly Hallows

Dedalus Diggle is one of the two Order wizards who are detailed to accompany Vernon, Petunia, and Dudley Dursley to a place of safety four days before Harry's seventeenth birthday, when the protection afforded Harry will cease. Dedalus does not exactly inspire confidence in Vernon by his admission that driving a car is far too confusing for him. Additionally, all of the Dursleys find it alarming that Dedalus' watch chastises him loudly for being late.
Speaking with Harry at Grimmauld Place, Lupin mentions that in the Death Eaters' search for Harry after the fall of the Ministry, Dedalus Diggle's house was burned down, but Dedalus was not there.

## Strengths

Dedalus Diggle is probably quite good with his wand as he is seen to be casting spells for fireworks.
