"Mitt Yum-ney" Is Projected Narrow Winner In Lamar's 2012 Presidential Donut Poll
DENVER, Nov. 2, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- In a squeaker of a race between two hotly ingested candidates, LaMar's Donuts is declaring the "Mitt Yum-ney" as the winner of the 2012 Presidential Donut Poll by less than a half-percentage point.
Since September 1, LaMar's customers have been able to select from two limited-edition gourmet donuts on sale: the "Dough-Bama," a donkey-shaped donut with blue sugar topping, or the elephant-shaped Mitt Yum-ney donut with red sugar. Sales of the two handmade goodies have been tracked and posted online at www.lamars.com.
As of the end of the polling October 31, the Mitt Yum-ney finishes with 50.2 percent of sales, compared to the Dough-Bama's 49.8 percent.
Reflecting other polls, the Dough-Bama took an early lead of 3 percentage points in the first announced results, prior to the initial presidential debate. But by mid-October, the Mitt Yum-ney had moved into the lead by a 0.4-percent margin. "We have a case of donuts imitating life," said Kayde Pierce, spokesperson for LaMar's Donuts. "The race has been almost too close to call, although the larger Mitt Yum-ney has proven slightly more popular, especially among voters ages 10 and younger." On November 6, LaMar's Donuts in Colorado; Omaha, Nebraska; and Overland Park, Kansas, will celebrate Election Day 2012 by giving a free donut to each customer wearing an "I Voted" button or sticker. In the 2008 LaMar's Donuts Presidential Poll, the Dough-Bama beat out the "McCandy Cain" with 52 percent of sales. As it turned out, then-Senator Obama won the real presidential election with a nearly identical share of the popular vote: 53.7 percent. About LaMar's Donuts After developing his original donut recipe as a teenager in 1933, Ray Lamar opened the first LaMar's Donuts in 1960 in Kansas City, Missouri. Today the franchised chain has 27 stores in Kansas, Missouri, Colorado, Nebraska, Alabama and Arizona. LaMar's has won numerous awards and favorable reviews by such publications as The New Yorker and Gourmet magazine, and was the first donut to be reviewed and acclaimed by Zagat, the world's most trusted guide to restaurants. LaMar's Donuts are proclaimed by many as "simply a better donut." SOURCE LaMar's DonutsCheck Out Our Best Services for Investors

puzzling behavior after command editing
Code:trap "echo 'quitter!!'; exit" INT ans="" while [ "X$ans" != Xcontinue ] do echo "Enter 'continue' to continue..." read ans done echo "Good job"
- Enable vi command editing (set -o vi)
- Type the letter v to launch vi on a temporary file in which I can enter a command to execute
- Type a command to execute the script. If the script is called prompter, I might just add ./prompter to the file
- Type the letters :wq to end the vi session and execute the command
At this point, some flavors of Linux let me type input for the script but some do not. I haven't tried it on a lot of different systems but two systems I have handy (one is CentOS and the other is SuSE) do not allow me to type input. I also have two others (Redhat and Ubuntu) which gladly accept the input.
Regardless of whether the system lets me type input to the script or how I end it, all of the systems leave me in command editing mode after the script completes. I have to hit Enter or use the vi commands a or i to type anything.
Has anyone else seen this, am I doing something blindingly stupid?

Enable vi command editing (set -o vi)
Code:vim /tmp/my_junk
Note: you could type "bbbb" rather than "B" or even "4b" rather than "B". Vi command such as "O" or "o" do not work a a command is a single line. When in vi-editing mode, you can hit the "Escape" key and then "j', 'k', up-arrow, down-arrow to move through you command history and be in editing mode on that line. If you fail to hit the "Escape" key and use the arrow keys to access your history, you will not in vi-editing mode on the line until you do hit the "Escape" key. As a visual, if you have not moved the cursor horizontally, the cursor will be at the start of the line when in vi-editing mode and at the end of the line when not in vi-editing mode.
When you are in vi (by typing v) you are typing into a file that has not yet been named and not the command line buffer.Last edited by alf55; 01-18-2013 at 05:41 AM. Reason: Corrected "Escape" spelling

Thanks for your reply but I think you may have missed the entire point of my post. Perhaps it's my mistake for not being more clear.

when you run the script on the computers that don't work what happens? It looks like it just runs and does nothing?

When the script prompts me to continue, it doesn't accept any normal keyboard input. It doesn't any characters I type, it doesn't respond when I press ENTER, etc. The only thing I've found that it responds to is ctrl-C and that's only because I set up the handler. I think before I added the handler, it ignored ctrl-C as well.

What I'm doing is complex command line editing in a safer area than directly at the command line. I don't know about you, but I sometimes make mistakes at the command line and cause the command to be executed before I'm done doctoring it up. If I use vi to do the editing, I have to make a more explicit action to execute the command.
I disagree with you. If you enable vi command editing, press ESC to enter command mode, and press the v key, the shell launches vi on the contents of the command line. You make your changes, "save it", and the altered contents get executed. It's an extremely useful feature I use every day.

setting and exporting EDITOR to /usr/bin/vim into ~/.bashrc (sourcing it), and typing C-x C-e will allow you to quickly access vim editor, without the confusing behaviour of bash's vi-mode.

This rug is beautiful rug but it is low pile. So if you like low pile, rich color rugs, this is a great choice.
such a good rug and awesome colors. it's soft (not oddly soft, though, just a nice material)
Rug was as described and delivered timely by UPS to our front door
I bought this rug for the entrance way into my home. Everyone tells me when they first arrive how much they like the pattern and colors. The quality is very good and it will not show soil or wear. It was a great buy for the price.
I really like this rug. It looks beautiful under our casual dining table and chairs, and since it is not real thick it is easy to vacuum with the small vac stick that I use for small jobs. The black is very black, and all the colors are beautiful. A great rug for a great price.
Beautiful colors but not very thick compared to my old one.
Beautiful rug. Nice rug and a fair price. Colors are accurate based on the picture.
Absolutely love this rug! It is definitely the nicest and most gorgeous rug I have ordered on line, and I have ordered a few. The rug's colors are vibrant and it is very soft. It only took a day to totally flatten out. Looks like it cost me much more than I paid through Overstock. I have a red, white and black kitchen, so it goes beautifully with everything.
Nothing special, but nothing wrong with it either. For this price, it gets the job done.
I purchased this rug and was very disappointed with the quality. It took a week for the wrinkles to settle down (it is thin). The details are not vibrant and I just put this rug in storage and purchased another from Overstock, rather than return it.
