Both LWP::Simple and CGI try to export a function called head and they have different prototypes. This can lead to badness - as you've seen.

However, you don't actually use either of these subroutines, so you just need to stop importing them (or, at least, one of them). Quickest fix is to change the use LWP::Simple line to:

use LWP::Simple 'get';
