FYI for all you Monthy Python fans out there and all you MSH members I discovered that all week they have been playing Monthy Python on Sirius radio. Channel 105 the comedy channel.
I am almost Pythoned out but it does give me a laugh.
AT work people walk by and say what are you listening too?
Usually its classical which helps me remain calm while stressing about my work.
But this week I have been laughing. I think it last till Sunday.
The argument is really funny.
Reticulated Pythons have amazing patterns on their bodies which are designed to help them blend into the leaf litter of the rainforests. These patterns are a mixture of light browns, creams, yellow dark brown and even black. Their heads are yellowish with a dark, thin line and their bellies are yellow or white. The Reticulated Python is one of the world's largest snakes reaching a huge 10 metres in length. Reticulated Pythons grow to be the longest snakes in the world.
Habitat
The Reticulated Python is commonly found in the jungles of South East Asia, the Philippines and parts of the Indonesian archipelago. Reticulated Pythons enjoy the tropical areas in rainforests, and they rely on water and are often found near ponds, creeks and river systems.
Diet
Reticulated Pythons are non-venomous. Pythons are constrictors, coiling about their prey and squeezing it until it suffocates. Like most other snakes they can swallow animals much larger than the diameter of their own heads because the bones of the skull and the lower jaw are loosely attached to each other by ligaments. This allows the bones to separate when the prey is being swallowed. Their skin also expands and large prey items form an obvious lump in the body until digested. A Reticulated Python will prey on large mammals, birds and reptiles.
Breeding
The female Reticulated Python may lay up to 90 eggs and incubates them by coiling around them and shivering to raise and maintain temperatures. The young are over 2 feet long at hatching and may grow up to a foot longer each year.

There is a Natural Jacuzi by flowing water, when one of our new friend Harsha freaked out when spoting snake. Initially everyone freaked out...

BURMESE PYTHON
Asian dream, American nightmare.
One of the largest snakes in the world and the only protected snake species in Hong Kong.
The AROS operating system comes with Python 2.5. I really 'started' programming back on the Amiga workbench and CLI (Command Line Interface), so this really takes me back.

Modulo arithmetic isn't part of the KS2 maths curriculum, so this is a really cool way to explain the concept to 9-11 year olds when working with numerical offset substitution cyphers.
Introduction to Python: Absolute Beginner
While new to Python, I am no beginner in programming. The course worked fine for me anyway: I dropped the videos and skipped right to the exercises, sometimes even skipping right to the evaluations.
