Answer 1

Expanding from my comment above:

tic = datetime.datetime.now()

while True:

    # do stuff

    toc = datetime.datetime.now() - tic
    if toc.minute > 10:
        tic = datetime.datetime.now();
        time.sleep(60-datetime.datetime.now().second)

I have removed the "done" variable, since it conveys a meaning of finished. By reading your code, though, it seems you are actually pausing an ever ongoing process, actually.

Hope this helps!
