appliedsec/pygeoip - GitHub
Pure Python GeoIP API. The API is based off of MaxMind's C-based Python API [1], but the code itself is based on the pure PHP5 API [2] by Jim Winstead and Hans Lellelid. It is mostly a drop-in replacement, except the `new` and `open` methods are gone. You should instantiate the GeoIP class yourself: gi = GeoIP('/path/to/GeoIP.dat', pygeoip.MEMORY_CACHE)

15 Great Examples of Websites using jQuery Masonry | Web Resources | WebAppers
by sbrothier
jQuery Masonry is a dynamic grid layout plugin for jQuery. Think of it as the flip-side of CSS floats. Whereas floating arranges elements horizontally then vertically, Masonry arranges elements vertically, positioning each element in the next open spot in the grid. The result minimizes vertical gaps between elements of varying height, just like a mason fitting stones in a wall.

We break the package deal »you get our app, we get your data« with remoteStorage, a cross-origin data storage protocol separating application servers from data storage.

BBC - Adam Curtis Blog: WE'RE ALL IN THE SAME BOAT - AREN'T WE?
Then he had a massive stroke of good luck in 1977 when ABC TV began the Love Boat series. The series was an instantaneous hit and it transformed the image of the cruise liner. It not only portrayed it as a sexual paradise, but crucially a paradise that was open to all.
