The skins of potatoes alone are not poisonous. However, if the potatoes have begun to sprout, the skin around the sprouting, and the potatoe below that, may contain poisonous materiasl. Extracts from http://www.drweil.com/drw/u/id/QAA252785 The chemical in question is solanine, a toxin that forms in the sprouts and green parts of potatoes. You can avoid it by cutting away sprouts ("eyes") from potatoes and peeling them below any green layer. And don't eat any potatoes that taste bitter; the flavor might indicate the presence of solanine. Extracts from Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potato#Toxicity Potatoes contain glycoalkaloids, toxic compounds, of which the most prevalent are solanine and chaconine.
...
Breeders try to keep solanine levels below 200 mg/kg (200 ppmw). However, when these commercial varieties turn green, even they can approach concentrations of solanine of 1000 mg/kg (1000 ppmw). In normal potatoes, analysis has shown solanine levels may be as little as 3.5% of the breeders' maximum, with 7-187 mg/kg being found.
Where can I buy Yukon gold potatoes locally?
It depends where you are locally. Unless you state a specific location, we cannot give you a specific place.
Your local independent grocer might have some in stock. Supermarkets only tend to stock goods which sell well. So if the Yukon gold potatoes are not popular/profitable in your locality, the supermarkets won't stock them. However small independent greengrocers or grocers might, since they buy smaller stock than supermarkets to simply satisfy local demand rather than squeeze out as much profit as they can from customers. Your local greengrocer could also order some for you if asked, if there isn't any.
If your supermarket does not sell them, check their website. They may have them in stock at another location and could deliver them to you if the supermarket has such services.
If you live within or near farms, you could ask a local farmer if they know of any being produced locally that you can buy.
Try re-asking your question giving an exact location for a more specific answer.

Bug zappers typically use UV lights to attract bugs at night because bugs can see UV much better than other visible light and obviously they are naturally drawn to it. When the bug approaches the light an electrical arc is created across the bug which vaporizes the bug when it flies between two grids of metal spaced very thinly apart. In order to achieve such high voltages that can cause an arc the bug zapper contains a transformer that steps the voltage up from 120V to around 2,000V or more.
