Minor changes since last time. I ran check_urls against these links a couple of times within the past 3 days just to make sure it wasn't a fluke.

Note: It turns out I still have to manually check the bad links dictionary since each link might get timeout due to a bad/slow network on my side and intermittent errors on the site. Nevertheless, the script is a good starting point for pinpointing errors since it tends to returns few results.

Note: The timeout threshold might need to be configurable in the future. Can also consider implementing retries for GET calls with backoff (tradeoff being slower execution).

hmm, the Data Skeptic link was my fault. i left out the "www" in the domain. pylons book I removed manually. I'm going to close this PR but these should be fixed via latest commit now.
