Title: Enabled using proxy server when $http_proxy environment variable is set

This fixes an issue when if a proxy server is in place, Rails will hang attempting to retrieve the remote partials until the request(s) timeout. It reads the standard `$http_proxy` environment variable and uses this when setting up a `Net::HTTP` connection.
