It is known to have been associated with agriculture in the Old World since early times and has had an old symbolism and association with agricultural fertility. As with many such plants, the area of origin is often ascribed by Americans to Europe, and by northern Europeans to southern Europe. Papaver, also pappa, is the Latin word for food or milk and rhoeas means flow/fall off in Greek. It was formally described by the Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus in his seminal publication Species Plantarum in 1753. Rhoeadic acid, papaveric acid and rhoeagenine are also found in this plant. Papaver rhoeas contains the alkaloid called rhoeadine, which is a mild sedative. A very pale speckled variety, derived from the Shirley, is also available.Ī nearly black-flowering hybrid, known as 'Evelina', was bred in Italy in the late 1990s, with P. dubium, but does not appear to be available commercially. The Shirley poppy is a well known cultivar. Selective breeding has resulted in cultivars in yellow, orange, pink, and white. Not all corn poppies that are available commercially have red flowers. ![]() Like many other species of Papaver, the plant exudes white to yellowish latex when the tissues are broken. The capsules are hairless, obovoid (egg-shaped), less than twice as tall as they are wide, with a stigma at least as wide as the capsule. The flower stem is usually covered with coarse hairs that are held at right angles to the surface, helping to distinguish it from P. dubium in which the hairs are more usually appressed ( i.e. The plant can produce up to 400 flowers in a warm season, that last only one day. The stems hold single flowers, which are large and showy, 5–10 cm (2–4 in) across, : 32 with four petals that are vivid red, most commonly with a black spot at their base. It grows up to about 70 centimetres (28 inches) in height. In the Northern Hemisphere it generally flowers in late spring (between May and October in the UK) but if the weather is warm enough other flowers frequently appear at the beginning of autumn. Papaver rhoeas is a variable, erect annual, forming a long-lived soil seed bank that can germinate when the soil is disturbed. The three stages in a common poppy flower: bud, flower, and capsule Since World War I, it has been used in the Commonwealth as a symbol of remembrance for fallen soldiers. ![]() The corn poppy and its cultivars such as the Shirley poppy are widely grown in gardens, and are frequently found in packets of seed labelled "wildflower mixes". Flushes of poppies may still appear in fields where herbicides are not used, as well as those in fallow. As the plant thrives in areas of disturbed soil, it was often abundant in agricultural fields before the advent of herbicides. It is regarded as an agricultural weed (hence the common names including "corn" and "field"). It is a temperate native with a very wide distribution area, from Africa to temperate and tropical Asia and Europe. Papaver rhoeas, with common names including common poppy, corn poppy, corn rose, field poppy, Flanders poppy, and red poppy, is an annual herbaceous species of flowering plant in the poppy family Papaveraceae. ![]() She appeared in The Matrix Reloaded with Keanu Reeves.

In our testing, a Transit with the turbocharged V-6 made it from zero to 60 mph in 6.8 seconds. The Mercedes Sprinter offers more robust payload capabilities. The 2020 Transit is capable of towing up to 7500 pounds, and it can accommodate a payload of up to 4530 pounds. All engines are paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission, and buyers can choose between rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive. There's also a turbocharged 3.5-liter V-6 available it's the only engine to carry over from the 2019 model, and it generates 310 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque. The base engine is a naturally aspirated 3.5-liter V-6 that provides 275 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque. Engine, Transmission, and Performanceįord's Transit is offered with two powertrains. That addition brings the total cost of the Transit cargo van T-150 to $36,600. We'd include the optional blind-spot monitoring ($595) for safer lane changes. Additionally, all 2020 Ford Transit vans come with driver-assistance features such as lane-keeping assistance and lane-departure warning.

A four-way adjustable driver's seat and a manually adjustable tilt-and-telescoping steering column are on hand to help you get comfy behind the wheel. This van rides on 16-inch steel wheels, and it comes with exterior features such as power-adjustable sideview mirrors and a split swing-out rear door for easy cargo access. The base-model Ford Transit cargo van T-150 comes with a generous selection of standard features, and we think it will be a great fit for many buyers. It can carry five people in two rows of seating, and it's built for owners who want to move larger crews and their gear to a job site. Finally, a crew van joins the Ford Transit lineup. The 2020 Transit also benefits from interior updates such as new grab handles and vents. The van gets a new and improved powertrain lineup, and it also adds standard driver-assistance features such as forward-collision warning and automated emergency braking. All-wheel drive is now available, and passenger and cargo vans get exterior updates such as a new power-sliding door. The Ford Transit gets a host of upgrades for the 2020 model year. Overall, though, this Ford shines as a top choice in its segment. Vans such as the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter offer greater payload capability, and the Transit has a steeper base price than some rivals. ![]() This full-size Ford van is offered in myriad configurations, giving you the ability to choose a model that's an exact match for your needs. The Transit delivers smooth handling, and its cabin does an excellent job of keeping road noise at bay.

You never see another person, but you can find traces of them: where they’ve been, relationships they built with others over swapped notes. It’s a pretty good story, too, with a bait and switch that you might not be expecting, although (like Tom says) a lot of it is about the relationship you build with Delilah in the next tower, which can be surprisingly complicated. I recommend that you do – the caveat being that you understand that Firewatch is what it is, and what it is is a story that happens to be told via the medium of a video game. You might think the ending is neat if you play it. There are no neat endings in real life, so there’s no reason that I deserve them in video games. Unlike Tom I did feel a little shortchanged by the conclusion of Firewatch, but I suspect that’s mostly because I’m a demanding child. ![]() Second Opinion: Alice ‘likes to pick up litter’ Bell ![]() Henry has things to face up to and you won’t feel shortchanged by the game’s conclusion. Firewatch is a brief adventure, but it feels right. Henry, his struggles and choices, have stuck with me for the last couple of days, so I don’t think it needs any deeper meaning. It’s hard to say if Firewatch is simply a snapshot of a small part of a particularly hard part of someone’s life or if it’s saying something more. Don’t hold out too much, though, as the game is over in an afternoon of solid play. You’re given a camera to take a limited number of snaps with, and it’s hard not to splurge them all in a matter of minutes. The use of colour is wonderful and the little details you can find help flesh out and explain what’s going on. On PS4 Firewatch has some performance issues and looks a tad ropey if you look at it from a technical perspective, but get over that and this is a beautiful game. The dialogue is excellent and the acting natural, and there’s some sparingly used but effective music. I guess I just wanted to speak to somebody. Your only connection to humanity is Delilah, and I found myself trying to radio her even when there was no option to do so. This isn’t a horror game, not even close, but the sense of isolation is played on superbly, so even little things get under your skin. As you complete tasks days pass (often more than one at a time) and things start to develop that suggest all isn’t right.ĭiscovering what’s going on is part of the Firewatch experience, but the game does a brilliant job of unnerving you. It’s all single-button-press stuff rather than anything overly ‘gamey’ but it’s interactive and gives the sense that you are out there, doing your job. Henry is given tasks that see him set out into the great outdoors, wandering around in first-person, hopping over obstacles, climbing up to ledges, parasailing down cliff faces, hacking down trees and all kinds of other things you might expect someone to do when trying to make sure people aren’t causing trouble in the forest. While the relationship begins a bit awkwardly (Delilah is Henry’s boss so is always telling him what to do) it soon develops and the two open up to each other and discuss their complicated lives. You can make conversation choices and this shapes how things play out – at one point I pissed Delilah off so she refused to talk to me for a while. It’s somewhat revealing, then, that it is Henry’s relationship with his boss, fellow firewatch station sitter, Delilah, that forms the centrepiece of the game.Īrmed with a two-way radio, Henry and Delilah talk. For reasons I won’t go into, this is fine. ![]() He’s going to be alone most of the time, sat at his post ready to report any sign of fire. Henry takes a job at a firewatch station in Wyoming’s Shoshone National Forest. From a team who cut their teeth on Telltale’s The Walking Dead, Firewatch feels like a natural and smart evolution, offering choices without as many constraints, but at the same time expertly funneling players down a path. Firewatch is a game about escape, loneliness, friendship and facing reality, told in a tightly controlled explorable world and with some top class writing and acting. Firewatch isn’t any of the things I expected it to be. “Blonde Bop” by AVL Drumkits is a multisampled drum library provided in two versions: a regular stick version and a super-phat version played with Promark Hot Rods.
