 For testing Weather locally, a few changes need to made to the django-
 settings for it to behave well. There seems to two ways of handling
 multiple settings (development, testing and production)[1] and they are
 described below:

  1. Settings module -> This helps in clearly separating different settings
 for differed phases of development   but it seems like a overkill for
 Weather. Moreover, Karsten suggested that changes made here should affect
 current Weather when its deployed. [[BR]]

  2. Create a local-setting file -> the file will house all the custom
 settings for testing, but it won't be [[BR]]version controlled.

 Let me know what you guys think.
