This document compares and contrasts characters from the films "The Shadow" and "Taken". Both films feature vulnerable young female protagonists who are stalked, though in different contexts - Rebecca is stalked locally after connecting with her stalker online, while Maggie is kidnapped while traveling abroad. The antagonists in both films are mysterious males who stalk and hunt their targets. However, they have different motivations and methods - Michael stalks Rebecca for his own purposes, while Antonio is tasked with killing Liam Neeson's character.

The document summarizes key aspects of parabolas as conic sections:
1) A parabola is defined as the set of points in a plane that are equidistant from a fixed point (the focus) and a fixed line (the directrix).
2) The standard form of the equation of a parabola is y=ax^2, where the vertex is at the origin, the focus is on the y-axis, and the directrix is the x-axis.
3) Examples are worked through to find the equation, focus, directrix, and other properties of parabolas given information like the vertex or standard form equation.
