Play with Pyramid

I played with the Pyramid tutorial. http://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/pyramid_tutorials/en/latest/single_file_tasks/single_file_tasks.html It is boring to copy sutras as it is, so I rewrote the DB to Mongodb. The template and stylesheet files will work if you arrange them in the same way as in the tutorial.
