Excellent! I wish there was a video, but I'm sure someone has it
somewhere on the internet. Good work on the dojo, the only thing I was
worried about is..

item = db.news_item[request.args[0]]

If the request.args[0] tries to call from a non existant SQLRow then
it'll throw an error :) Best to apply a try/except method here, but I
guess for the purpose of the dojo it was OK (anyone trying to learn
from the dojo on here should take notice of this however).
