Many forms were developed in Japan and these of course have Japanese names, while others were bred in Europe or America and usually have English-sounding names. Japanese gardeners began to collect these forms, and produce more from seedlings, so that today at least a thousand different forms are known. Unlike many plants, where each individual is very much the same as another, these trees are naturally very variable, with different leaf-forms, colors and tree shapes. More than an excuse for a picnic, momiji-gari is considered a lofty spiritual experience. Japanese Maple produce small flowers in spring and the seeds are the small ‘keys’ typical of all Maples, which twirl down to the ground in fall.įor many centuries the Japanese people have traveled to the countryside to see the fall color, like east-coast Americans admiring the Sugar Maple. However, the leaves are much smaller than on typical Maple trees and since many garden forms have deeply divided leaves they may not be immediately recognized as Maple trees. This tree grows in the shade of larger forest trees, which is why it is more shade-tolerant than most other deciduous trees.īeing a Maple tree it has the typical lobed leaf, with veins spreading out like the fingers of a hand and ending in five to nine lobes, with one lobe in the center of the leaf. The bark is smooth and gray on older limbs, but green, red or sometimes pink on younger shoots. As a wild tree it grows 20-35 feet tall, occasionally more, and usually has several trunks, rather than a single central trunk. Japanese Maples grow wild across the hills of Japan, Korea and into Mongolia and Russia too. ![]() These slow growing, dwarf varieties are sure to be the highlight of your landscape. They can be grown in the garden, in containers and of course they are ideal subjects for the ancient Japanese art of bonsai. Compared with many other trees and shrubs, they have few pests or diseases and are versatile enough to thrive in locations ranging from full shade to full sun. With attention given to their location in the garden and some minimal care, they will thrive and increase in beauty every year. These small trees have a reputation for being hard to grow, but this is largely undeserved. There are also a wide number of varieties with red or purple leaves all summer, which bring a unique highlight to any garden. They may be upright in form, pendulous or cascading, with red or green leaves and as well as their stunning fall coloring, many have remarkable colors on their new, early spring leaves too. Some grow into small trees 20 feet or more in height, others remain as low shrubs reaching five feet only after many years of growth. A tree in fall is guaranteed to turn heads and gather admiring looks and the enormous variety of leaf forms, colors and tree shapes means that no matter what your taste or space restrictions, there will be a tree for you. Japanese Maples are the most desirable garden trees that exist. ![]() ![]() ![]() AA similarity rule is easily applied when we only know the measure of the angles and have no idea about the length of the sides of the triangle.

In theory, real-time protection should foil future attacks. That initial full scan should sweep away any malware that weaseled onto your system while it was devoid of antivirus protection. Unlike in previous years, a repeat test didn’t finish faster. Panda also offers a quick scan of critical areas only and a custom scan of user-specified folders.Ī full scan of a standard clean test system took Panda 135 minutes, a bit longer than the current average of 110 minutes. There's no telling what kind of malicious software might have set up housekeeping in the unprotected device.

Bitdefender routinely takes perfect or near-perfect scores from all four labs-its current aggregate score is 9.9 points. Among those tested by three labs, Kaspersky and McAfee reached 10 points. Also tested by two labs, AVG attained a perfect 10. Panda’s perfect SE Labs score, combined with its failures at AV-Comparatives, yielded an aggregate of 7.5 points, among the lowest aggregate scores. I've developed an algorithm that maps multiple lab scores onto a 10-point scale and yields a lab results aggregate score. All the antivirus utilities in the latest test, Panda among them, received AAA certification. The lower levels don’t get much use, though. For example, SE Labs certifies antivirus tools at five levels: AAA, AA, A, B, and C. ![]() The four labs each use a different scoring system. A half-dozen antiviruses- among them, Avast Free Antivirus, AVG, and Bitdefender-took Advanced+ in all three tests. The competition seriously outperformed Panda in this lab’s tests. In fact, Panda would have earned one Advanced+ and one Standard certification in those tests were it not for “remarkably many” false positives. I closely followed three of this lab's tests, and Panda failed two of them due to false positives (valid programs identified as dangerous). Those that perform significantly better than the minimum can receive Advanced or Advanced+ certification. Every antivirus that passes a test earns at least Standard certification. Panda appears in the latest results from two of the four labs, with scores that range from terrible to excellent.Īt AV-Comparatives, testers don't assign numeric scores. The simple fact that a program appears in reported results means that the lab believed it merits attention, and the company budgeted for the cost of participation.

But it was a slow buildup, so it was almost the straw that broke the camel’s back, I guess, if you wanna say that. Kara Acheson: There’s one moment that really sticks out in my mind. Sean Burke: And was there a specific moment or a specific incident that really sort of helped give that recognition for you, when it came to some of the challenges that you were going through? It almost feels like you don’t have a moment of rest until, for me personally, when I’d be lying in bed and my brain would kick on and my body is exhausted and then you wake up and do that again the next day and day after day and year after year, that really, started to add up, which I thought was really interesting cuz I found myself in public health and that’s all about the prevention and promotion of health and I’m doing that for my patients, yes I don’t seem to have that quite figured out for myself. And then you have to do all your home responsibilities if you’re a parent or a spouse, or family, all that kind of stuff. And I didn’t learn that in school necessarily how to take care of yourself.
