From the Arkansas English Dictionary.
Definition of Populus. : a genus of trees (family Salicaceae) that is native to the northern hemisphere, that has resinous buds, numerous stamens, incised bracts, and elongated stigmas, and that is well known in cultivation — see poplar — compare salix.
I think your elongated stigma may be interfering with your language in these posts. But we'll let the populace judge.
But to add to your list -- after 80 years of balls flying out of the yard, baseball decided to experiment with a lower scoring, more skill-oriented game, and deadened the ball.
