Have you ever received a letter from the Domain Registry of America, inviting you to renew your domain registration with them? Don't - it's a scam. They're just another registration agent, and an expensive one too, who try to trick you into signing up for their services with what looks like an urg ....
What if Python doesn't include a class / method that you would like, but you've got that feeling that "surely someone's done this before"?
1. They probably have
2. They've probably made it an available 'Open Source'
3. It's just a question of you knowing where to look!

Our first weekend, probably of many, working on "Well House Manor". The previous owner finally completed her move out on Thursday, 1st June, and we had vacant possession from that afternoon. We wish her all the very best for the future, and appreciate her gestures such as the flowers left to wish u ....
Have you every written a Perl program that doesn't perform as you would wish? Yes, everyone who's written a Perl program has done that. Once any syntax errors have been corrected, you run your program for the first time and you check - VERY carefully - the results. Any errors, and the patterns of e ....

A new part of the world for me - a whole new continent to add to those that I've already visited on business, so I prepared as best I could. I do wish to add a note of ....
The end of a long two weeks ... I'm writing this blog in the reception area at the Dhahran International hotel, ready for posting after an overnight flight back to the UK. My car arrives in about 60 minutes ...
Today has been spent shrinking. Clothes and possessions gathered this morning and fitt ....
Today is the eye of the storm. And I feel a strange calm. In Saudi Arabia, I run the last day of Perl training that I'm giving here and start for home. In the UK, we complete on the purchase of Well House Manor. ....
In most programming applications, you'll write code that calls system functions or subroutines - for example, you'll write a program that reads data from a file (via a system call), splits the data into an array (perhaps via a further system call), and prints it out (through system calls).

If you're looking to do something in Perl and the back of your mind tells you that, surely, someone's done this before then there are two things to note:
