 The DefaultHttpClient is passed in, but not created. The `DATE` headers is
 set. A `BaseResource` is created and `BaseResource.postBlocking()` is
 called. The proxy will be set within `BaseResource.execute()`.

 You mean `BaseResource.prepareClient()`?

 Indeed.

 > All connections are created via `BaseResource`. DefaultHttpClient is
 passed into an `addHeader()` where an `ACCEPT_LANGAUGE` and `ACCEPT`
 header is added.

 Looks good to me.
