error while installing pip for windows 8 (hebrew)

Hi Im trying to install pip on my pc - windows 8 in hebrew.
I installed python 2.7. I added python to my path.
I ran some random printing in python file and its work. so python is ok.
when i try to install get-pip.py I get this error:

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe9 in position 0: ordinal
not in range(128)
any help would appreciated

Thought you may wanna try these since you are installing it in Hebrew.
1.) Open path "C:\Python27\Lib\" and search for python file "mimetypes.py".
2.) Open and Edit that file. Search for line "default_encoding = sys.getdefaultencoding()"
3.) And add these lines before the searched line in (step 2):
if sys.getdefaultencoding() != 'gbk':
reload(sys)
sys.setdefaultencoding('gbk')

The UnicodeDecode Error might be because you are using wrong version of get-pip.py.
All the strings in Python3 are unicode by default, but in Python2 it is not so.
If you are trying to use get-pip of Python3 with Python2, it might likely be the cause of your error.Try checking for/ obtaining the correct version! :)

Google GMail API `installed` app shows IOError 13 from module SSL.py w/o sudo

I am playing around with GMAIL API to create an app to send auto emails from my server. Running my application as a simple user has the following results:

On the other hand, running with sudo works perfectly
pankgeorg#snf-25181:~/tomotech/gmailer$ sudo python mailer.py
Message Id: 14ad0aea05e*****
To be completely honest, in order to authenicate using --noauth_local_webserver, I run the command with sudo, authenticated and chown the gmail.storage to myself again.
Also, I installed using easy_install because pip install was giving me the following error:
pankgeorg#snf-25181:~/tomotech/gmailer$ sudo pip install --upgrade google_api_python_client

Storing debug log for failure in /root/.pip/pip.logrom oath2client import tool
It is my understanding that the root of the problem is the same in both cases.
I also have to note that my laptop (on which I can authenticate normally, on webbrowser, instead of --noauth_local_webserver) it works just fine, even though the installation is done the same way (the problem with pip appears there too).
Thanks in advance and sorry for the long post!
Tutorials I used:
parse arg
code for sending mails
application body is pretty much the quickstart for gmail api.

The httplib2 installer sets incorrect permissions for its httplib2/cacerts.txt file. One solution is to simply make its files readable by anyone by running
chmod o+r -R /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/httplib2-0.9-py2.7.egg
However, it may be better to uninstall the version installed by pip, and use your operating system's package manager instead, which probably has the correct permissions for all files. On Debian, this could be accomplished with
pip uninstall httplib2
apt-get install python-httplib2

Cannot use Google Native Client SDK on Windows 7

I am trying Google's Native Client SDK.
OS is Windows 7, I've already installed python 2.7.9 and setup the environment variable path accordingly.
I also downloaded nacl_sdk.zip from https://developer.chrome.com/native-client/sdk/download and extracted it.
However, as I run the command "naclsdk list" as it is described on the download page, I got the following messages:

Urllib2 - Django - Broken Pipe

I am new to Django and I am experiencing some troubles posting data to a django webapp.
On the django side I have a form (backed by couchdb - couchdbkit django ext.).
On the client side I post data with urllib2, in bulk (going through a list of data to post one by one)
data = urllib.urlencode(param)
req = urllib2.Request(OBJECT_SERVICE_URL + '/objects/create/', data)
req.add_header('Content-type', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded')
res = urllib2.urlopen(req)
res.close()
After one record (one post passing), it get the message below, running again the next line passes and I have again this message :
res = urllib2.urlopen(req)

Some times I found weird errors and quick connection resets using development server (like in your log). If your application is about http, REST and webservices you should use Apache or Gunicorn so you feel a more realistic enviroment while developing.

FancyURLOpener failing since moving to python 3.1.2

I had an application that was downloading a .CSV file from a password-protected website then processing it futher.
I was using FancyURLOpener, and simply hardcoding the username and password. (Obviously, security is not a high priority in this particular instance).
Since downloading Python 3.1.2, this code has stopped working. After fixing the obvious issue of it now being in the "request" namespace, it's crashing in a less obvious way.
Does anyone know of the changes that have happened to the implementation, and how to use it now? The documentation seems to be short of examples.
Here is a cut down version of the code:
import urllib.request;
class TracOpener (urllib.request.FancyURLopener) :
def prompt_user_passwd(self, host, realm) :
return ('andrew_ee', '_my_unenctryped_password')
csvUrl='http://mysite/report/19?format=csv#USER=fred_nukre'
opener = TracOpener();
f = opener.open(csvUrl); # This is failing!
s = f.read();
f.close();
s;
For the sake of completeness, here's the entire call stack:
