just use readline() method...this will move the file pointer to the
next line....
example:
fd=open("/tmp.txt","r")
fd.readline() ##THIS MOVES THE FILE POINTER TO THE
SECOND LINE
now carry on with...
for line in f.readlines(): #THIS WILL BEGIN WITH THE SECOND ROW AS
THE FILE POINTER IS IN 2NDLINE
....
