Blueprint via Compass in Rails 3.1

I have successfully integrated Compass and Rails 3.1 in this sample app. I am also trying to learn to use Blueprint, so I am trying to replicate the Grid Test in the app. So how do I include Blueprint? The commands described in the documentation are still outdated, as they do not work with the asset pipeline. Also, how will the conditional css for internet explorer work if it is already compiled into the rest of application.css? Thanks!

Edit: By following Michael Hartl's example, I have successfully integrated Blueprint and the pipeline in development. But I am still not getting the appropriate styles in development, and I am also having a compile issue in production.

Do it another way :

1) add to Gemfile and run bundle update compass:

group :assets do
  gem 'compass', '~> 0.12.alpha'
end

2) create a blueprint.css.scss file on app/assets/stylesheets with the following contents:

@import '_blueprint';
@include blueprint;

3) into app/assets/stylesheets/application.css have this:

 /*
  *= require_self
  *= require blueprint
  *= require_tree .
 */
