For those times when you have no idea what type of string you received are, and what encoding scheme it's encoded in. Just turn the damn thing into utf-8 unicode.
def get_me_unicode(v):
if isinstance(v, unicode):
s = v.encode('utf-8', errors='ignore')
elif isinstance(v, basestring):
s = unicode(v, 'utf-8', errors='ignore').encode('utf-8', errors='ignore')
