/*
 * You have `this.session` and `this.done()` context
 */
store.serverRequest.register('tumblrInfo', function(param1, param2) {
  var done = this.done;
  
  if (this.session.name === param1)
    tumblr.get('/user/info', function(err, data) {
      done(err, data);
    });
  else
    done('Access denied', null);
});

app.get('/', function(page, model, params, next) {
  var serverRequest = model.serverRequest('tumblrInfo', 'param1', 'param2');
  
  model.fetch(serverRequest, function(err, scopedInfo) {
    model.ref('_tumblrInfo', scopedInfo);
    page.render();
