HoopsHype Serge Ibaka rumors
Morrow, by the way, can be added to the above list. He's also averaging more fourth quarter points than Ibaka. The first-year Thunder sharpshooter is averaging 3.8 points in the final period. "My first job always is defense here on this team," Ibaka stressed. "Some games I'm going to shoot 15 (shots). I don't really worry about the shots. All I can do is keep working when the opportunity comes." Oklahoman
Ibaka has already tied a career-high in both makes (23) and attempts (60) from deep. He's taken as many as nine in a game. He's made as many as four. It's become a thing. And if you ask Scott Brooks, it's not going anywhere, even when the stars return. "I think it continues," Brooks said. "He doesn't necessarily have to live out there and shoot 10 a game. But three or four a game is a good number for him." Oklahoman
No amount of applause, no trophy or title could ever eclipse a father's love for his baby girl. From the moment they met, Serge Ibaka's heart grew whole. Ibaka said, "It's a different love. Just the best love ever." The Thunder star was only 17 when he became a father. It's not unusual in Congo, where love blossoms early and teen pregnancy is rampant. KFOR
Ronnie Ibaka lives in Congo with her mom, but Serge is very much a part of her life. He visits frequently and supports his family financially. Ibaka told us, "I give her the best, everything because everything I do right now is for her." KFOR
Ibaka and Kendrick Perkins grew frustrated with Jackson by the third quarter. Both big men began freezing out their point guard, refusing to pass him the ball to lead the break following defensive rebounds. After the game, Thunder coach Scott Brooks even publicly criticized Jackson for not moving the ball. Jackson took responsibility. Oklahoman
Perkins wasn't proud of his actions, either. "Just let the game come to you," Perkins said about Jackson. "But with myself and with Serge, we got to do a better job with our body language and leadership skills, because I didn't like the way I acted in the Brooklyn game as far as my body language toward Reggie. But we know Reggie means well. We support him. He's one of my good friends off the court. So it's no harm in that." Oklahoman
An anonymous NBA scount dishes his take on the Thunder's outlook with Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook sidelined. "They are going to have a hard time scoring. You know they are not going to rush KD back because that's not what they do. The entire offense was funneled to Westbrook and Durant. You can run the same sets but how effective is it going to be without two of the top 10 players in the NBA? But that's probably what they are going to do. Reggie Jackson is like a mini-Westbrook. He's going to get a lot of shots. It was the Perry Jones Show against the Clippers, so he will get looks too. Serge Ibaka isn't a post presence but they might try to do more to get him more baseline jump shots. These are band-aids though. In this conference, they can easily lose 10 or 15 games over the next month and be in a deep hole when Russ or KD comes back. This injury could knock them out of the playoffs." Sports Illustrated
Anthony Slater: Serge Ibaka returns from an ankle injury against Toronto tonight to make his preseason debut. Expected to get 15-20 minutes. Twitter @anthonyVslater
Serge Ibaka: "I would have liked to play more minutes with the Spain at the World Cup." Marca.com
Royce Young: Ibaka was asked if he's had a chance to play with Mitch McGary. "Mitch McGary? Mitch McGary... McGary?" Straight up didn't know who he was. Twitter @royceyoung
Gobert clearly listened. From a second-quarter dunk on Pau Gasol to almost flawless post play to helping hold two All-Star big men in check, Gobert was everywhere he needed to be. His 13 rebounds were only one fewer than the brothers Gasol and the ineffective Serge Ibaka combined, and a key factor in a 50-28 advantage on the boards. The young big man's single block of the night, on a Pau Gasol attempt, preempted France's closing 10-0 burst. "I knew everybody was expecting me to help the team," said Gobert, who averaged 2.3 points and 3.4 for the Utah Jazz last season amid two stints in the D-League. "Everybody knew I could stop them. That was just my mission. Everyone else played great offensively. I just had to stop Pau. He's one of the best players in the world and if you stop him, they're not as strong." ESPN.com
Ibaka's eyes were growing wide now off the lobby of a hotel lounge several weeks later, his voice rising, his cadence accelerating. For there's no Spanish gold medal in Madrid next week, no NBA championship for Oklahoma City in the States next spring, that could touch him as did a trip as a UNICEF emissary had this summer. He changed basketball in the Congo, and plays a part in shaping its future throughout Africa. "That's one of the most amazing things for me," Ibaka told Yahoo Sports. "I feel like that I am some people's … some people's …" Yahoo! Sports
Ibaka speaks five languages, but he is searching for the proper word here. It is escaping him and his eyes dart to Jordi Vila – the European agent who partners with his American representative Andy Miller – who had been listening to this part of the conversation. "Inspiración?" Vila says. "YES! YES!" Ibaka declares. "I am some people's … inspiración!" Now, Ibaka is rolling. "I tell them all: If can make NBA player, if I play in the NBA, that's means anything is possible. When I was in Congo, basketball in Congo was nowhere like today there. I didn't watch the NBA. I knew two players. Michael Jordan. Magic Johnson. Oh, maybe [Dennis] Rodman, too. Only know a few teams. That's all I know. We did not see basketball. I didn't know there was an NBA draft. Yahoo! Sports
Miss Durant in the tournament? "No, no, no. No … nobody wants to play against Kevin," Ibaka says. "Who wants to play against him? Hell no. I saw in the Americans final in [2010] Turkey. Every time he take a shot, people start crying. No … no … no. "Every time he got ball, people are saying, "Nooooo … Noooo…" Ibaka rolls back his head and laughs again. "Nobody want to play against him!" Yahoo! Sports

The king of food
Late Oscar Grubert a North End guy who made a fortune with his eateries
I was 10 years old and Oscar Grubert was 29 in 1958 when we both discovered what success tasted like.
Oscar, the lawyer turned drive-through hamburger-stand owner, had invited my Free Press city editor father and my mom, among others, to meet Col. Harland Sanders at the opening of the city's first Kentucky Fried Chicken franchise at Sherbrook and Notre Dame. Later that night, my parents brought home some of the truly finger-lickin'-good chicken from the Colonel's secret recipe for my kid brother David and me to sample.
Earlier that year, in answer to a letter of inquiry from Grubert, the white-haired Southern gentleman in the famous white suit showed up unannounced in the Winnipeg lawyer's office. He was peddling a franchise and Grubert was buying.
It would be that chicken -- not his original experiment flipping burgers on north Main Street with his partner and pal Bill Goldberg -- that would serve as the foundation for Champs Food Systems international food and beverage empire and Grubert's future family fortune.
Oscar Bert Grubert was 84 when he died earlier this month in Toronto, where he resided after selling 19 KFC Manitoba outlets to the company 23 years ago today. His passing was recorded in the National Post with only the humblest of obituaries, in keeping with his wishes. Yet for decades the hard-driving, tough-nosed but soft-hearted North End boy was Winnipeg's king of the restaurant industry -- from the 1960s right through the 1980s. The man owned KFC outlets and an ever-changing host of other food and beverage experiments -- remember Grubee's, Mama Trossi's, The Garden Creperie, Thomas Button's, G. Willaker's, T Bones, the Carlton Street Fish Market, Strawberries and Blue Jeans Cabaret?
The list and the experimenting in search of the next big franchise went on and on. Suffice to say that over time, Grubert would feed and water almost everyone in the city. And with his other corporate pillar, Mother Tucker's Food Experience, he would expand across Canada and the United States. At its peak in the 1980s, the Champs empire he shared with Goldberg employed more than 3,000 people in more than 50 North American restaurants and had annual revenue of more than $100 million.
Grubert even tried concert promotion. In 1966, he brought the Rolling Stones to town for the first time.
"With the Rolling Stones," he would say years later," all hell could have broken loose. My reputation could have been damaged. Mick Jagger was higher than a kite and I was out of my wits."
People trying to climb over the Grubert family home in Garden City to see if Mick was there added to the mayhem.
But Grubert was more than a Winnipeg boy who made good. Or even a good old-fashioned success story.
On Wednesday morning, the day after Beth Grubert emailed me to share the news of her dad's passing, I called back. Beth is the city's Queen of Desserts, the owner of Baked Expectations across the street from the Osborne Village Inn her father built as the Champs Motor Inn in the 1960s. By the time we spoke, I had discovered who her dad was from the Free Press archives. And from Oscar himself, in his own words. He spent his school days living in the North End, the early grades in the Depression era learning the lessons the street taught little Jewish boys, as he recounted in a 1984 Free Press interview.
"I had to get into several fights in order to protect myself and... more than that, to let people know that I wasn't afraid and rather I was proud of who I was."
But there were good times growing up on Robinson and Scotia streets. Most were centred on sports, particularly playing goalie like his friend, future Hockey Hall of Fame inductee Terry Sawchuk. Grubert was a self-confessed terrible student until he graduated near the top of his 1954 law class.
Today, the company he and the late Goldberg started has diversified. The remnants of the Champs restaurant empire -- the Tucker's restaurant chain in Ontario, a KFC in Grand Forks and a partnership with Winnipeg's Palomino Club -- are still administered in Winnipeg but headed out of Toronto by his son, Nolan.
The company is also involved in two Joe Sensor's sports-themed restaurants in Minneapolis.
Oscar Grubert would tell anyone who asked that it was never money that drove him. What was important was acceptance by family, friends and peers.
His daughter, Beth, never shared the kind of finger-lickin' good success that made her father's fortune. She has never eaten KFC -- it's not kosher.
Wednesday she offered what sounded like the definition for success any father would want to hear.
"I was just driving and thinking of my dad," Beth said, "and realizing that the one thing I always felt was pride. I was so proud to be anywhere with my dad... It was a lot of fun to be his daughter."

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Travelling through time
From old Beijing to future Shanghai -- and stops between
BEIJING -- "They're scorpions. I've tried them; they're not bad," said Piotr, the Polish-Italian student who kindly volunteered to translate and help me get around.
He led me through Wangfujing, one of Beijing's most popular shopping areas, a broad street with huge neon signs that reminded me of Times Square.
Tucked into one of the little side streets is the night market, where one can try some of the most mouth-watering street-food options: Scorpions, cicadas, sea horses, silkworm larvae, centipedes, lizards, snakes, starfish and tarantulas.
In the spirit of being the adventurous traveller who always tries the local fare, I vowed to try the scorpion.
At the moment of truth, I chickened out (or should I say scorpioned out?) and opted instead for the visually more appealing but maybe less politically correct crispy fried sea horse instead. No, it didn't taste like chicken. More like fried fish. (What was most amusing was locals would invariably talk to me, an Asian-Canadian who doesn't understand Chinese. I'd point them to Piotr to translate, they'd all look very confused, and some would insist on talking to me.)
The next morning, Piotr gave me a 3 a.m. wake-up call to go to the Beijing Antique Market, also known as the Panjiayuan market. We got there by 4 a.m., before the vendors did, and watched them wheel their carts in and set up.
Most of the "antiques" here are copies or fakes, so make sure you know what you're paying for.
The Chinese can copy anything. There were piles and piles of Ming vases and Tang Dynasty horses. With real ones costing thousands to millions of dollars each, the sight of them piled up precariously as if at some garage sale was enough to give an uninformed collector a heart attack.
They had everything -- old coins with holes, antique vases, stone carvings, bronze statues, snuff bottles, calligraphy brushes, Chinese paintings, jade bracelets and figures to modern-day Warhol painting knock-offs. It's almost like touring a historical museum spanning thousands of years of Chinese history but a lot more fun -- a real shoppers' paradise. (I picked up a few silver coins but have no clue if they even have any silver in them.)
In between sessions jostling with the city's 20 million residents, my quiet oasis for decompression was the Fairmont Beijing. The hotel is shaped like a giant red classic Chinese gate (somewhat reminiscent of La Grande Arche de la Défense in Paris). An indoor pool connects the two buildings, and I was happy to be able to keep fit by doing a few laps instead of breathing the smog outside.
From the hotel, it's a short walk to the Silk Street Market, the infamous shopping centre featuring seven floors jam-packed with everything imaginable. This is the place if you want to add to your Louis Vuitton collection for less. Not much of a shopper, I had an awesome hour-long foot massage instead, for the princely sum of $7.
To keep fit and lessen your carbon footprint, the hotel also has state-of-the-art lime-green BMW bikes guests can use for free to pedal around the city. They provide an iPhone app that covers a visit to the hutongs, the old neighbourhoods with narrow alleys.
With the pace of building in China, these are fast disappearing and exploring them is a great way to see how the locals used to live before all the modernization. I joined a couple with the bikes touring the hutongs, and then wandered around on foot to explore the alleys around Nanluoguxiang, a well-preserved shopping street.
While I was shooting a bright red door with beautiful Chinese calligraphy on the sides, a man opened the door and invited me to join him for tea. He turned out to be a master calligrapher. All his walls were filled with impressive samples of his calligraphy and Chinese paintings done by his wife and daughters. Before I left, he insisted on creating a special scroll for me wishing me good luck in my travels -- my most treasured gift from China.
I took the bullet train from Beijing to Shanghai to try one of the fastest trains on earth. Travelling faster than 300 kilometres an hour, the ride was smooth and pleasant, and the cars were the cleanest and most modern I've experienced. Each seat had access to an electrical outlet, so I whittled away some of the emails that had piled up. A great introduction to modern Shanghai.
From the train station, a cab whisked me to the heart of the city, the intersection of the Bund -- Shanghai's most famous stretch of waterfront by the Huangpu River -- and Nanjing Road.
As I got out of the cab, the super-modern skyline of Pudong was in full view for the first time; it felt as if I had arrived at the future. But as soon as I stepped into the Peace Hotel, the geometric art deco lobby instantly transported me back to the '30s. The former Sassoon House built by Sir Victor Sassoon, the hotel was completely renovated recently to its state when it was the place to be 80 years ago.
While dining at the Dragon Phoenix, the painted ceiling and all the interior details evoked the 1920s. More importantly, the lobster was the best I've had in my life. After dinner, a friend, Helen, invited me for a drink at the cigar room of the bar.
A non-smoker, I risked my health and ventured in.
Her friends, a half-dozen young professionals, were smoking and drinking and in animated conversation. As they discussed search engine optimization and the latest killer apps in the smoke-filled art deco lounge, I was in the past and the future simultaneously.
After an hour of breathing in nicotine, my virgin lungs needed a break. I walked out to the Bund to catch some fresh air.
Some music led me just a block away to the rooftop Bar Rouge. I met several interesting expats from all over the world, including Timea, a choreographer from Hungary, who was exhibiting the sexiest dance moves. With the DJ playing the latest hits, expats and locals mingling and, dancing with the futuristic Oriental Pearl Tower and Pudong skyline in view, I was completely transported back to the future.
The next evening, I visited the legendary Jazz Bar in the hotel and travelled back in time again to the Roaring Twenties.
While trying my best to get lost in some of Shanghai's little streets, I heard the faint sound of crickets in the middle of the day. I followed the chirping to a cricket store! Turns out the Chinese have been keeping crickets as pets since the 12th century. Thousands of crickets, from barely the size of a rice grain to longer than five centimetres, were in tiny boxes with some food and water, and were creating beautiful sounds.
The store was filled with all sorts of cricket paraphernalia, food and intricate handmade cages. Grown men were putting their ears close to the boxes, listening to a few before selecting one.
I love the sound of crickets -- they remind me of peaceful nights out in the country. Toying with the idea of bringing a few home to help me get to sleep and maybe start a new craze back home, I nixed the plan after considering what Canada Customs might think of my new friends.
Walking back through the People's Square, I noticed a few older folks looking intently at hundreds of sheets of paper posted on a wall. As I turned a corner, there were thousands more, on the ground, on umbrellas, hanging on strings.
Thousands of people were looking at them and chatting. It was the weekend Marriage Market. Parents post ads about their kids, with or without their consent, to lure interested partners or their parents. Grandparents and professional matchmakers get in the act, too.
The ads list the basic description, some assets and contact information. For example: Male, born 1985, 1.7 metres tall, has a bachelor's degree from the U.S., good salary over 10,000 RMB a month, has a condo. Some parents have been going every weekend for years to find the perfect mate for a son or daughter. For many in the City of the Future, the centuries-old tradition of matchmaking by parents still trumps match.com, eharmony and Facebook.
I just hope Mom never gets wind of this.
-- Postmedia News
Getting there:
Air Canada flies directly to Shanghai and Beijing from Vancouver. Many other airlines have routes through another city. I'd take the bullet train between the cities any day over flying.
Where to stay:
Fairmont Beijing
A five-minute walk from the Silk Street Market. Guests have free use of new BMW bikes to tour hutongs or other areas of interest with a free app.
Fairmont Peace Hotel
Right in the heart of the Bund. One of the most iconic heritage buildings in the city. Recently restored to its 1930s original art deco interiors.
Manhattan Bund Business Hotel
A few steps from the Peace Hotel, another art deco hotel but more affordable, with modest rooms and amenities.

Is it Too Late??
I just found a invitation card at the bottom of my 5 yr old's backpack and the party is for tomorrow at 2...is it too late to rsvp yes in an unwritten etiquette book.
call em.. and tell the mom you just got the invite from his bag and if he can still go.
I would call and tell them you're sorry you just got it, see if there's still room.
Quoting MamaJane: I would call and ask. Explain what happened and apologize. As much as people don't RSVP, I think she'll appreciate the call
I'd totally call and ask. Heck some people don't even RSVP and just show up.
I agree, I would call and explain what happened, I'm sure it'll be fine

N.H. Senate Voting On "Hike Safe" Cards To Cover Rescue Costs
The Senate is voting whether to sell "hike safe" cards to hikers that would forgive them for any rescue expenses they'd otherwise owe New Hampshire for being negligent.
Thursday's vote is on a House-passed bill that authorizes the Fish and Game Department to sell voluntary hike safe cards for $25 per person and $35 per family. People who obtain the cards would not be liable to repay rescue costs if their rescue was due to negligence on their part.
The bill also would exempt people with hunting and fishing licenses and anyone with an off-highway recreational vehicle registration, including for a snowmobile.
Hunters, anglers, boaters, snowmobilers and all-terrain vehicle riders currently pay almost all the rescue costs though license fees to the agency.

|My buddies (432/2)of the G+ villageI am happy to share (finally) my first big circles (432/1 and 432/2) with you. It is also a way to thank you and to inform you of my consideration.You will find in these two circles all the people I follow regularly since my first steps on Google+ and which accompany me for soon two years in this beautiful adventure, bringing every day, by their sympathy, their humor, their knowledge, their generosity and their open-mindedness, a bit extra to my everyday life.I do not know everybody, I have crossed the path with some, I communicate more with some and many people became friends, thing which I did not expect by landing here.When I began, I was lucky enough to discover new interesting people, thanks to the system of circles sharing, and I hope that these both will be for you of the same utility.If you add a "plus", maybe it will have an impact on climate change,if you share this circle, maybe Putin is going to get married with an ukrainian women in 2014,if you include me in your circles, maybe it will solve the problem of hunger in the world,Maybe ... but in fact, nothing is sure ;)A good day to all :)With a special thought for #dirktalamasca #sharedcircles #circles #circlesharing

|Best of 2012 CircleThis circle is some of the G+ awesomeness that has enriched my life this year - and I am grateful. A while back +Sean Cowen asked what G+ has meant to us. After watching Brene Brown's TEDTalks (http://www.ted.com/speakers/brene_brown.html) I realize that for me, G+ has been a lesson in vulnerability and courage. I have been humbled by the courage of every one of you. I love that women post no make-up pictures and that you all speak your minds (your clever, creative, crazy & beautiful minds...). I have been blown away by the public sharing regarding topics as deep as abuse and depression - talk about vulnerability and putting yourself out there - absolutely amazing. By doing so, you have helped others in ways you may never know. <3Inspiration's what you are to me, inspiration, look... see. Led Zeppelin - Thank YouYou have inspired me. (warning TL:DR personal stuff below) Oh, & I did include some new peeps. If they're freaks, blame +Ben Zaitz.This month, I gathered some courage and let three people see me in, what was to me, a position of vulnerability.The first was a very dear friend from Elementary School. For the past few years, I avoided HIRLing because I was ashamed of my weight and I guess I didn't want to disappoint him. The same reason recently kept me from seeing a dear High School friend. I saw them and each did not care that I was not perfect, they love me for me. Mann, it was great to see their faces again, talk in person and have some non-virtual hugs. <3I attribute this change in thinking to your responses to a July post: https://plus.google.com/115807723984369772514/posts/Ui2TQBPuELKAmong the other awesome words from you peeps, +Alvin Stearns wrote, "Never again compare yourself to others so that you make unfair and useless judgments about yourself or others. That includes comparing yourself to you in the past." The third was that, with your encouragement on a private post, I actually asked a guy out. I would have never even considered doing that a year ago. (He has a gf, so no deal, but it's all good cause he was cool.)I know these are little things, but I thank you all from the bottom of my heart. And thank you to +matthew rappaport, Bobbi Jo Woods and +Tiffany Henry for coordinating the first NYCHIRL. Due to my kiddies, I couldn't see +Daria Musk and +Ryan Van Sickle

|MSD 3 BETAIt's time to upgrade my "Must See Daily" circle.I need to slim down a bit. I'd like 150 but under 200 might be a better goal. Feel free to tell me who I'm missing before the final release.About this circleThis circle is heavy photography for obvious reasons, but it also showcases some of the best Google+ has to offer. If you would like to improve your stream there is no better solution!Notes:- Some truly original and unique content- My own go to circle- Hand selected, organically chosen (huh? This release post is a bit first drafty too. I will probably highlight some circle members as I have before...) #circleshare #sharedcircles #beta

|This is a bonus circle, and is actually pretty much where I started when I was creating my first circles - Top 500 PlussersIt is the people with the highest number of users - and is actually now only 308 people. When I first collected the Top 500 Plussers on Google+, I spend a lot of time weeding out the people whose posts in which I didn't particularly have an interest (e.g. almost all of the photographers - nothing against people who post photos to G+, it's just me: this is Google+, not Flickr; people who only ever promote themselves - so quite a lot of the pop musicians). The list that is left are people who, I think, actually contribute to the stream. You may find some surprising choices (Dolly Parton?! Actually, yes!). But I hope you enjoy it.I've kept the name Top 500 even though it is a lot fewer than 500. I like the irony... #circleshare #sharedcircles #celebrity #topcircles

|The first of two circle sharesThis circle right here is my main one. This has been accumulated over quite some time, and until recently, was actually three separate circles that were all very small. It turns out I had gradually been modifying each one of the three circles to basically end up being the exact same thing. A small group of people who almost always post things I enjoy.So this is a medium sized group of people who almost always post things I enjoy.

|My #bottom99 circle on relevancy: what made me circle you and why do you score this low on relevancypart of the ongoing research into the relevancy algorithm Google usesI hope to see some interactions from this group to see if Google is right that although I circled you, the interests are not mutual and we don´t encounter each other sufficiently to merit circling.However maybe you all turn out to be highly relevant to me: it´s just the counter movement to the #top99 shares which tended to make the rich richer. My version was *A mystery shrouded in an enigma: My Top 99 circle* https://plus.google.com/u/0/112352920206354603958/posts/WUYsAPtwCDc which triggered a good discussion.I will put this group in a daily reading circle for some time and see what happens. Maybe I had a very good reason to circle you and it´s just a matter of mutual rediscovery. Let´t see what happens. How to do this:Sorted ´in my circles´ on relevancy and selected people from the bottom up until I figured I had about 100. Put them into a circle of their own and shared it. Be aware that if you do so they immediately rank higher on relevancy as you shared them and mentioned them. So its hard to adjust precisely hence my 94 instead of 100. If you got a notification you were one of the 94 (as I couldn´t get exactly 100) and feel free to leave me a comment. I would love to hear from you. #bottom99 #sharedcircles #sharedpubliccircles +Shared Circles on G+ +Nothing but Circles +Public Circles +Full Circle +CircleCount

I've slowly been adding people to this circle, and have enjoyed browsing only this circle from time to time. I end up reading 90% of the posts by the users in this circle. My mouse's scroll wheel appreciates the break (the circle was previously called the "less scrolling" circle).One thing I did notice going through this circle was I was surprised how many users hadn't circled me back meaning they never see my posts :(For some this is because they barely circle anyone, others maybe just never thought to.

|I'm sharing this circle right now. This is the one tiny little circle that I talked about the other day. The one that I check when I don't have time to actually Google+ right.It has no coherent theme. It has no real reason.It's a combination of Google's relevance scores and my time spent here in the last month or so giving me opinions. About half and half.

Colorado Springs- Purple Majesty Potatoes??
Has anyone in Colorado Springs seen Purple Majesty seed potatoes at any of the garden centers? I got them at Hillside last year but when I went by today they didn't have any seed potatoes at all. I'm not sure if/when/what they're getting in.
Guess I'll be making phone calls this week. Unfortunately, Hillside is the only place that I remember having them last year (but maybe I didn't check everywhere).
I think there are some in the box of sprouted potatoes in my pantry from last years harvest. I'm not sure I'll be able to tell which are the PM and which are All Blue though. Oh well, they're all getting planted anyway. Purple Majesty and Red Pontaic were the only ones I was planning to buy this year.
I don't know if this will help you or not, GB, but here's a list of Colorado garden centers, and there's three listed under COS. Thought I'd post it in case there's one there you hadn't heard of yet.
Good luck,
Here is a link that might be useful: Garden Centers of Colorado
I just checked with my favorite garden center, Plelan Gardens on Austin Bluffs and they currently have Sangre reds, yukon golds, russets and fingerlings. Thursday they'll be getting in some blues but I'll need to check in with them again Thursday or Friday. I may try the sangre reds and fingerlings for grins but the blues also sound interesting...
I don't want to have to pay shipping so if I can't get them locally I'll just have to make do. I'm not planting a huge number and there's a possibility I may not even live here to harvest my garden this year so I'm trying to keep it cheap :-)
Thanks for the link Skybird - I check with 2 of the 3 but I couldn't remember the name of the 3rd, I'll call them tomorrow.
Karen, I tried All Blue and Purple Majesty last year. The All Blue have a mealy/dry texture that I didn't really care for (almost like Russets I think). The Purple Majesty are much smoother, like red potatoes tend to be. They're also very high in antioxidants. I stopped by Phelan the other day but I didn't ask anyone (they were in the middle of a class). I'll have to check back (or let me know what you find).
Nancy, I called Spencers, they have blue but the lady didn't know the exact variety. Rick's has some that I might try, I forget the name but I think Majestic was in there. I didn't get a chance to call until late today so I'll make some calls tomorrow.
greenbean08, I got 10 lbs of potatoes from Ronniger's and the shipping was only $10.00. They do have Purple Majesty also.
Here is a link that might be useful: Purple Majesty
Looks like I've found a source! I called the Garden Center at Flying Horse (Northgate area) yesterday to see if they had any and got a call today that they'll have some in this afternoon for me. It's a little farther than driving to town but not too much, plus it's a nice drive through Black Forest.

US home prices rise 8.1 pct., most since June 2006
Tuesday - 3/26/2013, 5:30pm EDT
AP Economics Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) -- U.S. home prices rose in January at the fastest annual pace since June 2006, just before the housing bubble burst. The gain shows the housing recovery is strengthening ahead of the all-important spring buying season.
The Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller 20-city home price index climbed 8.1 percent in the 12 months ending in January. That's up from a 6.8 annual gain in December. Prices rose in all 20 cities. Eight markets posted double-digit increases, led by a 23.2 percent gain in Phoenix. Prices rose 17.5 percent in San Francisco and 15.3 percent in Las Vegas, one of the nation's hardest hit markets during the crisis.
Prices rose in 11 of 20 cities on a month-over-month basis. The monthly numbers are not seasonally adjusted and reflect the slower winter buying period.
The S&P/Case-Shiller index covers roughly half of U.S. homes. It measures prices compared with those in January 2000 and creates a three-month moving average. The January figures are the latest available.
Home prices nationwide are still 29 percent below their peak reached at the height of the housing bubble in August 2006. They are only back to where they were in August 2003.
Still, steady price increases should help make the housing recovery sustainable and add to economic growth. Higher home prices encourage more people to buy before prices rise further.
"Over time, persistently rising house prices also boost household wealth, make lenders more willing to lend because the asset they're underwriting is appreciating, and ease pressure on local government budgets that get revenue from property taxes," Jonathan Basile, director of economics at Credit Suisse, wrote in a research note.
Other recent reports have shown a strengthening recovery in housing, helped by near-record-low mortgage rates. Construction of single-family homes rose in February at the fastest pace in 4

When you love someone, you feel alive. Have you been sleeping lately? Me too, and I want to wake up...
I don't know in what matter faith makes people to be together... When you love a person, it doesn't matter which color of his hair or eyes - what's important is what place he has in your heart! I am looking for someone who wants to be with me as much as I want to be with him, who reflects my interests, like a mirror. A person who will grow old with me, building the history together and make me feel "home". I am 100% woman, and I enjoy being feminine and elegant. When a man treats me like a lady, I will make him feel like a man, and will not compete with him in the balance of power struggle. I like flowers, I like small suprises and public displays of effection. I like traditional type of relationship, where "behind a good man there is a great woman". If you understand, please, write.

I like Cats
To get to know someone, I prefer quiet and cozy restaurants, walk through an art museum or a photo gallery, or a walk through a park in a warm weather. Best vacation was in Moscow. I want to go to France, Italy....
I am a cat person - I had a Saimese for over 10 years. I like european food and I'll never say "no" to cup of tea with some chocolate, or tiramisu. On the rainy days I like to play jazz music blues but prefer suny days.
I am a great cook, and I make fantastic "mantu" (dumplings) and plov! It would be great to meet someone who will enjoy cooking together. I also like European cars, comedy, photography and going to the gym. I enjoy swimming and ice skating - can you?

Amy Poehler, Joe Biden Joke About Next Project: 'Snakes on a Train' (Video)
The "Parks and Recreation" comrades were the first guests on Seth Meyers' "Late Night," where Biden (sort of) addressed his future White House plans.
Amy Poehler and Joe Biden are ready to work together again, and they made their intentions known on Seth Meyers' Late Night debut Monday evening.
"We need to work together more!" Poehler exclaimed. Biden was a special guest star in a 2012 episode of Parks and Recreation, for which Poehler won the Golden Globe last month.
VIDEO: Seth Meyers Opens 'Late Night' With Thank You Note to Jimmy Fallon
When Meyers asked about the duo's potential new projects, Poehler joked: "Yeah, we're going to do Snakes on a Train."
"I don't know which part I'm going to play, but..." Biden said with a laugh.
Things went full circle later when the discussion turned back to trains. "I'm ready for a train movie," admitted Biden, aka "the spokesperson for trains" (according to Meyers).
Poehler and Biden were jovial during the segment and touched on their experience on Parks and Rec. Biden even shared a story about a moment when Poehler grabbed a Secret Service Agent and demanded they "take care of him!"
STORY: Inside Seth Meyers' 'Late Night' Debut
The segment also included Biden's "finger guns," which blanketed social media during President Barack Obama's State of the Union address earlier this year.
With speculation that Biden could be eyeing a presidential bid for 2016, Meyers did his due diligence by asking what Biden's future plans were -- specifically for that year. "I was planning on making a major announcement tonight...but I decided tonight's your night, and so I hope you'll invite me back," Biden said.
But Poehler was ready to let it all out. When asked the same question, the Parks and Rec star said: "Oh, um, I'm going to run for president."
Late Night With Seth Meyers airs weekdays at 12:35 a.m. on NBC.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the suitability of different techniques for a simple and rapid identification of asymmetric hybrids, without the use of selection markers and independent of the fusion partners used. Additionally, the degree of donor DNA elimination was determined. Among 473 viable plants obtained from asymmetric fusion experiments between three di-haploid breeding lines of potato (Solanum tuberosum) and diploid wild species (S. bulbocastanum, S. circaeifolium; X-ray treatment of the wild species) the most promising ones were investigated with three different methods: flow cytometry, RFLP analysis with an oligonucleotide probe (GATA)4, and with single-copy probes. Flow cytometry, which combines a high screening capacity with detailed information about the DNA content and allows a distinction between asymmetric hybrids and chimeras, detected 31 hypo-tetraploid and 42 hypo-hexaploid regenerates among 224 plants. With the oligonucleotide probe (GATA)4 only a few asymmetric hybrids were detected among all regenerates. More than 50% of these asymmetric regenerates were chimeras. Concerning the degree of DNA elimination, the results obtained by RFLP analysis with 17 single-copy probes were correlated with the results obtained by flow cytometry. The maximum DNA elimination of the donor genome was 52%. As a trend, an irradiation dosage of 210 Gy caused a higher DNA elimination in the wild species than a dosage of 70 Gy. No calli were obtained after irradiation of the wild species with 420 Gy.

Data Modeling with Alzabo
Alzabo provides a relatively simple way to wrap objects around your relational database tables. There is a lot of good news here: the data-modeling tool is quite sophisticated, there is a large amount of nice functionality, the methods largely make sense, and the documentation is vast and generally well written. As the Open Source community has long said, using an existing, battle-tested and open tool is almost always better than rolling a new, proprietary package that solves the same problem.
But wrapping relational database tables inside of objects is always fraught with danger and problems, and Alzabo is no exception: joins are still clunky, and it's not clear how to create some queries. Alzabo isn't at fault here; it's an inherent problem when working with two technologies that see the world in different ways.
It's certainly clear that I'll be using Alzabo in the future for some of my server-side programs, particularly those that need more sophisticated caching and exception-handling than I could otherwise provide.
Next month, customs permitting, we will return to our tour of server-side Java, comparing Enhydra's DODS package with Alzabo and its kin.
