...     def __init__(self, x, y, name):
...         self.x = x
...         self.y = y
...         self.name = name
... 
>>> list_items = []
>>> list_items.append(Item(x=70, y=60, name='test1420'))                        
>>> list_items.append(Item(x=94, y=72, name='test277'))                         
>>> items_matching = [item for item in list_items 
                      if 92 < item.x < 95 and 70 < item.y < 75]
>>> for item in items_matching:
...     print item.name
... 
test277
>>> first_item = items_matching[0]
>>> first_item.x += 50
>>> first_item.x
