ZF-4526: Capitalization of headers breaks file uploads
When uploading files to a particular web application I'm working with using Zend_Http_Client, the web application does not see the files that I'm uploading using $zendHttpClient->setFileUpload(). However, if I change the Content-type header for the file part(s) to "Content-Type" (with a capital "T"), and the Content-disposition header to "Content-Disposition" (with a capital "D"), the file and its type is recognized. I've verified that the capitalization of both headers must be changed in order for the web application to recognize the files.
I realize that this is probably a bug in the web application I'm interfacing with, but unfortunately I don't have control over that application. According to my tests, at least IE 7 uses the Content-Type (capital "T") and Content-Disposition (capital "D") headers.
Changing the capitalization of these headers in Zend/Http/Client.php @ r11407 on lines 1012 and 1130 appears to fix this.
Change as following in SVN r11768
- Create 2 constants, CONTENT_TYPE and CONTENT_LENGTH. Use CONTENT_TYPE instead of 'Content-type' and CONTENT_LENGTH instead of 'Content-length'.
- Change from 'Content-disposition' to 'Content-Disposition' . Capitalization of 'D'.
- Change from 'User-agent' to 'User-Agent' . Capitalization of 'A'.
I don't mind the change but hell, all standards (namely the HTTP RFC) clearly states that headers case is to be ignored and that headers are case insensitive. It doesn't matter what IE sends, what matters is what the standards say, and I would personally leave it all lower case.
The bug is in the app you are working with, and they are likely to have problems with other clients.
That said, I don't mind the change - but what happens if someone comes along in a month saying the app they are working with expects other capitalization? do we change it again? Perhaps we should come up with a way to customize this (e.g. static properties that define these headers which can be overridden through inheritance).

Second-Half Rally Leads Drexel to Win Over Men's Basketball, 64-57
Princeton was up by as many as 13 points late in the first half, but Drexel outscored the Tigers by 14 after the break to gain a come-from-behind win, 64-57 Saturday afternoon at Jadwin Gym.
The loss drops Princeton to 3-5 one week after a promising performance at Kent State, while the Dragons improve to 3-6.
Ian Hummer finished with 19 points as one of three Tigers in double figures, with Clay Wilson joining him with 12 points as well as Will Barrett with 10. Damion Lee had a game-high 21 for Drexel with Dartaye Ruffin adding 12 points.
Princeton's largest lead came at 30-17 with less than five minutes to go in the first half, but Drexel began to chip away there and get the deficit down to seven by halftime. The Dragons kept right on going after the break, and Princeton never led by more than seven in the second half.
The Tigers, who shot 57.7 percent in the first half, picked a tough time to go cold from the field. A 17-5 run saw Drexel turn a 45-38 deficit with 14 minutes to go into a 55-50 lead with five minutes left, a span that saw Princeton go 2 for 8 from the field.
Princeton managed to pull back to a tie at 57-57 with more than two minuted left in the game, but those game-tying points came on a pair of clutch Will Barrett free throws. Princeton's last field goal came with 4:45 to play on a Hummer bucket, ending that 17-5 Drexel run, but after that the Tigers missed their last five field goal tries.
The team seemed to trade their fortunes from the field at halftime. Princeton outshot Drexel 57.7 percent to 40 percent in the first half, while the Dragons turned that around to lead Princeton 63.2 percent to 35 percent in the second half. That included the Tigers going 3 of 13 from long distance.
The second-half rebounding totals were also strongly in Drexel's favor, with Princeton taking a 16-13 edge on the glass into the break before the Dragons won that stat 19-4 in the second half for an overall 32-20 rebounding edge.
Princeton will take the court next Saturday at the new Barclays Center in Brooklyn against Fordham as the first game in the Brooklyn Hoops Winter Festival tripleheader.
Postgame notes
• After Princeton won the first eight in the series with Drexel from 1901-1997, Drexel has won the last three, in 2005 at Jadwin Gym, in 2011 in Philadelphia and now in 2012 in Jadwin Gym.
• Ian Hummer's 19 points gave him 1,290 for his career, good for 10th place on Princeton's all-time career scoring list. He is just two behind Bud Haabestad '55 for ninth place.
• Hummer's nine field goals moved him closer to Brian Taylor '84 (507), still in eighth place on the school's career field goals list with 504.
• Hummer moved closer to the 600-rebound mark, achieved by only six Tigers since the stat began being kept in 1954-55. He now has 596 boards, in seventh place behind Andy Rimol '74 (617).
• Drexel's .500 field goal percentage for the game was the best for a Princeton opponent since the second game of the season when Northeastern shot .575 on Nov. 13 in Jadwin Gym.
• Drexel's 12-rebound advantage was the second-highest total for a Princeton opponent this season after Rutgers outboarded the Tigers by 18.
• Clay Wilson, who had five points in limited action all last season as a freshman, had his fourth double-digit scoring game of the season with 12 points. That was his highest total since a career-high 15 at Syracuse on Nov. 21.
• Mack Darrow, who has played in all eight games this season, has scored 21 of his 23 points this season over the last three games. He had six against Drexel.
• Will Barrett had his fifth double-digit scoring game in eight contests this season with 10 points against the Dragons.
• Hans Brase, who made his only field goal try against Drexel, had his first bucket since goting 2 for 3 from the field against Northeastern on Nov. 13.
• Hummer's 19 points were his third-highest total of the season after scoring 25 against Northeastern and 28 at Lafayette.
• Brendan Connolly went 3 for 3 from the field and has increased his scoring average on the season in each of the last three games, now with 6.9 points per game.

For expert level trail runners
Wasatch Crest Trail
Type: Out and back
Distance: 20 miles roundtrip
Wasatch Crest Trail is the Wasatch's crown jewel. If trail running is a form of hyperbole, then Wasatch Crest is its superlative. This difficult trail kicks off with Puke Hill, a bruiser and the trail's only source of vertical gain. Once runners push to the top, however, they roll along the ridgeline between Big Cottonwood Canyon and Park City in some of the most indulgent landscape in the range.
The high meadows give way to intermittent groves of aspens dappled in sunlight. These, in turn, transform into the jagged appeal of "The Spine," an amphitheater of granite peaks and pine forest. From the trail you can look down into Brighton ski resort and Desolation Lake before dropping into the single track of upper Mill Creek Canyon and ending at the Big Water trailhead.
Getting There: From the mouth of Big Cottonwood Canyon (Wasatch Boulevard and 7200 South), drive about 15 miles up the canyon until you reach the Guardsman Pass access road. Turn left and continue on this road for 1.8 miles until you reach a dirt road to your left. Park at the fork. You'll reach another gate about 100 yards up the road, which marks the beginning of the run.

Seven time Grammy-nominee, 23-year-old Philadelphia native Jazmine Sullivan delivers beyond expectations on her new album, Love Me Back – a vibrant, musically diverse collection that sets soulful R&B melodies to inventive, hip-hop-inspired beats. Her 2008 debut album Fearless bowed at No. 1 on Billboard's Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and spawned three Top 10 singles.
Love Me Back is a rich showcase for Sullivan's powerhouse vocals and unique storytelling gifts on songs like "Redemption," "Good Enough," the Missy Elliott-produced "Holding You Down (Goin' In Circles)," and "Don't Make Me Wait," which boasts an '80s-style rhythmic backdrop that wouldn't sound out of place on a Prince album. Once again, Sullivan co-wrote every song, collaborating with her early champions Missy Elliott and Salaam Remi, as well as Ne-Yo, Toby Gad, Chuck Harmony, No-ID, Anthony Bell, and Cainon Lamb, who bring out the best in this self-assured performer whom Vibe has called "every inch the soul star."

Interview with a Nutritarian: Ruthlette
Ruth always took good care of her body, but right along with middle-age birthdays came increasing weight gain. She was feeling the heaviness and burden of the scales climbing higher each year . Thankfully, at age 44 she discovered a new book that changed her life in the aisle of a Whole Foods Market. Welcome to Disease Proof, Ruth.
What was your life like before discovering Eat to Live?
I've always been into health and exercise, but when I turned 40 it became harder to keep weight off and look toned; even with the daily cardio exercise and weight training. Although I was still able to fit into most of my clothing, some were snug and I would no longer wear them. The numbers on the scale were creeping up and I felt heavy and sluggish.
I had been mainly a vegetarian. I ate lots of fruits and vegetables, but I did eat cheese, yogurt and salmon. I tried The Zone Diet but gained 10 lbs. after a year of sticking with Dr. Sears' terribly unappetizing recipes. At 5'7" I topped the scales at 140 lbs. I was open to becoming vegan, but afraid to take the plunge, because I wasn't convinced that it was healthy.
How did you find out Dr. Fuhrman high nutrient eating style?
I went to Whole Foods and saw a display of health books. One was Eat to Live, and I noted that the book quoted from The China Study, which I had read and greatly respected. I decided to commit to nutritarian eating.
What happened and how do you feel now?
Within three months I lost 15 pounds, dropped two to three dress sizes, and reduced my body fat from 33% to 24%. I feel younger and sexy, and I now have more energy and feel rested each morning. My workouts are stronger and I'm finally toned again ~ my husband says that my body looks like a teenager's! (By the way, my husband also lost 15 lbs!)
Do you have any success tip(s) to share with others?
- It's important to understand that you can't eat all-you-want of "healthy" foods like nuts, seeds and whole grains. When I first started Eat to Live, I wrote to Dr. Fuhrman on Ask the Doctor and told him that I couldn't believe how much food I could eat and still drop 4 lbs. in the first couple of weeks. He warned me not to "pig out" and to only eat until I was full. I was initially put off, but eventually learned that he was right. I learned to listen to my body and stop eating when I was full. After that, I dropped even more weight rapidly.
- I eat greens with every meal: spinach in my morning smoothie, a large salad with soup for lunch, and a large salad with dinner. By loading up on salads first, my "hunger" is largely quenched. I'm amazed at how much more energy I have by eating less!
In a nutshell, what has nutritarian eating done for you?
It has made me able to be more in tune with my body. Fueling my body with nutrient rich foods helps me have more energy and look and feel great!
Congratulations Ruth for taking the plunge into nutritarian eating!

Didier Reynders receives Mary Robinson, Special Envoy for the Great Lakes
The Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Didier Reynders, received the United Nations Secretary-General's Special Envoy for the Great Lakes Region, Mary Robinson, on 11 July.
Together, they discussed the progress already made since the signature in Addis Ababa in February of "the Peace, Security and Cooperation Framework Agreement for the DRC and the region" Indeed, the countries that are signatories to this agreement have initiated work to define a series of indicators for the implementation of their commitments, which should be approved in September in New York. The Congolese government has put in place a national monitoring mechanism, a new electoral commission and the launching of national consultations.
Mary Robinson was returning that very morning from a meeting in Bujumbura with women's associations from the region. Women are often the main victims of acts of violence and have an important role to play in the pursuit of peace.
Didier Reynders and Mary Robinson expressed concern regarding this violence that still persists today in the Kivus and of which the local populations are the main victims.
In this context, they hope that the soon-to-be finalised deployment of the reinforced brigade of the United Nations peacekeeping force (MONUSCO), accompanied by a coherent demobilisation process, will make it possible to quickly put an end to this instability. This process, one aspect of which also concerns the repatriation of foreign elements, is aimed at those who agree to lay down their arms and permanently give up armed conflict, and who are not subject to sanctions or sought after by the international justice system.
It is only by combining military pressure and incentives that we will be able to see the end of this instability. They both recalled that it was necessary to continue to mobilise international support for this new approach, which seeks not only to address the immediate crisis caused by the rebellion, but also the root causes of the instability in the region through a comprehensive approach which is coordinated by the "Framework of Hope" defined by Ms Robinson.
Didier Reynders reiterated his full support for Ms Robinson's actions. Belgium is one of the international partners involved in supporting the implementation of the agreement. The Minister will also have the opportunity to meet with his European Union Foreign Affairs colleagues during the Council on 22 July. He also intends to visit the DRC in August.

"These days, there's a place for everyone," retirement consultant Jan Cullinane writes in her new book, The Single Woman's Guide to Retirement. She's referring to retirement communities and housing that appeal to people — women in particular — based on their backgrounds, interests or sexual preferences.
For example, when I retire, I might consider an equestrian community. Horses and riding are my passion. They aren't my spouse's, but perhaps I'll be single when I get to that stage of my life. In her book, Cullinane mentions one for the horsey set in Ocala, Fla., where homes begin at $400,000. Seems a little pricey, but who knows?
'Living With a Twist' Locales
Cullinane's book has a fascinating section called "Living With A Twist" that describes all types of intriguing ways and places for single women to live in retirement. Ever thought about retiring in a home nestled in a vineyard community? Or living alongside other former letter carriers or astronomers? It's possible, Cullinane says.
(MORE: The Ideal Places to Grow Older in America)
And if you can't find a place for people like you, she says, go to the Fellowship for Intentional Community website to learn how to start a community geared to your ideas or interests.
As I wrote in an earlier Next Avenue post, "Should Women Buy or Rent a Home?," purchasing a house or a condo solo in retirement can be intimidating. But if you're moving to a place where the fit will be just right, this step will probably be less scary.
Fascinated by Cullinane's tips for single women interested in "living with a twist" in retirement, I called her to learn more. (Most of the single women she spoke with for the book wanted to maintain their privacy, so she often used their first names or middle names and last initials, which she did in our interview.)

This week, Gilles Peterson has words and music from The Stepkids (Stones Throw) and Raoul K, but he made time in between sets to play music from Japan, for Japan. The Japanese joints are simply beautiful, including artists like the Hideo Shiraki Quintet, UFO and Hozan Yamamoto. He also got a quick interview with The Stepkids, self-professed 'MP3 nerds,' and a sampling from their new album. A post-genre band, these guys have played as session musicians in different ways – from hard jazz, to R&B, to indie rock and everything in between. The combination they created for their upcoming album is like nothing you've heard before. The show ends with a mix from Raoul K, German-based DJ via West Africa, with tracks from King Sunny Ade, Carl Craig, Raoul K himself and more.

What a day I had yesterday: I was on both the giving and receiving ends of giveaways.
This lovely photo is by Stitched In Color. I didn't win ALL of this great stuff, but I'm excited about it anyway. : )
First of all: Yes! I actually won a giveaway! First blog giveaway win EVER! I have terrible, awful luck when it comes to winning things. Here's a list of all the prizes I have won in random drawings during my 36 years of existence: A Prairie Home Companion t-shirt, a free ice cream cone, and lunch from Jimmy John's. THAT'S IT. And I won the t-shirt in 1995—at the time, I was a junior in college and might as well have been unaware NPR even existed. So yeah, I'm not traditionally a big fat winner when it comes to these things.
But yesterday I found out that I won the Halloween Fat Quarter Surprise from Stitched In Color! I get a stack of 8 designer fat quarters from Sew Love Fabrics. Ruth of Sew Love will choose what FQs I get, but all of her stuff is so fabulous, I'm sure I'll love whatever she sends. So thank you thank you thank you to Rachel of Stitched In Color and Ruth of Sew Love for brightening my day. And yay for good giveaway karma. I figured it had to happen sometime.
On the other end of the spectrum, I huddled with Elizabeth of Don't Call Me Betsy last week regarding the custom blog header she won in my giveaway. The result of our collaboration is now up and running on Elizabeth's blog. So go on over there and check out her remodeled digs. Hope you like it—and that you all have good giveaway karma too!

Everyone wants to be beautiful. But forget the idea that beauty is only skin deep — or that the desire for better looks is shallow.
Being more beautiful could SAVE your life!
And that's the reason doctors Mehmet Oz, MD, and Michael Roizen, MD — two pioneers of proactive, preventive medicine — have created
You Being Beautiful
, the ultimate guide to a healthy body, mind, and spirit.
"Beauty is the foundation of our feelings, our health, our humanity," says Dr. Oz.
"When you look good outside, you feel good inside."
Think about that for one moment: America's most beloved doctor is telling you that not only is it okay for you to try to look good, but it's also imperative for your well-being. Time to schedule that facial — doctor's orders!
"When you look good and feel good, your body is healthier and your whole life is better," Dr. Oz explains. "What's more, science shows that a fit and healthy body is actually biologically younger than one that's flabby and out of shape."
You can ignite your metabolism — with food! In fact, by following Drs. Oz's plan,
you'll burn up to 35% more calories after every meal.
And that's before you even move a muscle. Plus, this same scientific nutrition strategy will help you eliminate cravings and decrease your appetite. So you lose weight almost effortlessly!
Shape up fast — without ever stepping foot in a gym. Whether you have a little to lose or a lot, Dr. Oz's at-home exercise plan will help you trim the fat for a flat stomach, slim hips, and shapely arms and shoulders.
You'll say goodbye to bra fat, arm flab, and yes, even that stubborn muffin top.
Drs Oz and Roizen show you how to activate the magical molecule — a protein called sirtuin — that slows aging! It's hard to believe, but by following the good doctors' advice,
you'll change the chemistry in your body to help neutralize aging.
And this priceless protein is easy to switch on. (Hint: The most fun way involves a glass of red wine.)
Did you know there's a perfect room temperature for sound, stress-reducing sleep? Quality shut-eye helps rejuvenate your skin and reduces the signs of aging — overnight!

you'll sleep better than you have in years.
Believe it or not,
FOOD IS YOUR BEST FRIEND when it comes to losing weight
and preventing diabetes. By making the right choices, food can help you conquer cravings, turbocharge your resting metabolism (so you'll burn calories even while sitting in front of the TV!), and stabilize those roller-coaster blood sugar spikes that lead you to feed uncontrollably. In
You Being Beautiful
, Drs. Oz and Roizen will teach you how to turn food into the ultimate fat-fighting weapon.
Were there ever a way to measure inner beauty, it would surely be determined by your thyroid levels. The thyroid gland, your body's gas pedal, controls how much get-up-and-go you have and can affect weight gain and fatigue. If your thyroid is low, you probably don't look and feel as good as you could — or as good as you should. Take this test adapted from
You Being Beautiful
to see if you might have a problem.
Do you feel tired even after a low-key weekend?
Have you gained 10 or more pounds?
Check your temperature. Is it often under 98 degrees?
Are you achy?
Do you have high LDL cholesterol?
Do you like the house warm?
Do you have dry skin?
Do you have thin hair?
If you have at least three of the above symptoms, you could have low thyroid. While it's smart to ask your doctor for a blood test,
You Being Beautiful
provides dozens of easy, at-home tips that may help relieve your symptoms — and your frustration. Plus, throughout the book, you'll find more self-tests like this that can help you identify other physical and mental obstacles, issues, and ailments — and discover the fixes that will quickly improve your life.

The Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles recently established the "Hero's on the Highways" program to allow active duty military members and recently discharged Veterans to waive the pre-trip skills and road test requirements for the issuance of a Class A or B Commercial Driver License (CDL).
The new program will aid in securing local employment for military members with truck or heavy equipment driving experience.
"The Hero's on the Highways format has been a very successful program in other states," DMV Director Jennifer Cohan said. "By implementing it in Delaware we expect to be able to encourage local employment possibilities for the many military veterans across the state that have experience operating heavy equipment and trucks."
The "Hero's" program has been established under the guidelines of the federal CDL Military Waiver Program. To be eligible, the applicants must be currently serving in the Armed Forces or have recently been discharged and applied for the waiver at DMV within 90 days of their discharge date.
Interested applicants must have at least 2-years experience operating a military commercial motor vehicle (CMV) and certify that they were regularly employed in a military position requiring the operation a military motor vehicle, representative of a CMV, for the past 90 days.
Prior to discharge, the applicant will need to complete the driver portion of the Military Skills Test Waiver application, available online at www.dmv.de.gov. Their commanding officer must sign the form certifying which vehicle type the applicant is eligible to operate.
After DMV receives the application, the applicant must satisfy the commercial knowledge testing requirements of the class of CDL to be issued. The waiver program also authorizes endorsements such as tanker, doubles/triples and hazmat, however; skills testing is not waived for School Bus or Passenger endorsements.
The "Heroes on the Highways" program, will enable Delaware to assist military personnel in establishing a civilian commercial driver license using their existing military commercial motor vehicle driving experience. This will afford existing or recently discharged military members with the opportunity to possibly gain earlier employment in the trucking industry.

Washington State vs. No. 4 Stanford
Cougs take on Stanford.
Washington State University Head Coach June Daugherty enters her sixth season with Cougars and has led the charge toward a new era in WSU women's basketball. Just as she had done at each of her two previous stops, Daugherty, who has coached more than 600 career games, has begun turning around the WSU women's program, bringing in top-ranked recruiting classes, improving attendance numbers and overseeing student-athletes who place premiums on academics and community service.
Last season, Daugherty led the Cougars to one of the most successful campaigns in program history while playing one of the toughest schedules in the country (No. 27). WSU posted the most wins since 1995-96, recording 13 overall victories and their second double-digit win season under Daugherty while improving their final RPI by 50 spots from a season ago. The Cougars saved its best for last, beating UCLA the final weekend of the regular season before posting the program's inaugural wins at the conference tournament. WSU knocked off Oregon State and USC in the first two rounds to advance to the nationally televised semifinal against California held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
Additionally, Daugherty led the Cougs to the program's inaugural win over a Big Ten Conference opponent (Wisconsin) and WSU's first win over a Big East Conference opponent (Marquette) in over 20 years. Daugherty's team followed nonconference play by winning its first three games (at Oregon, at Oregon State, Utah) of Pac-12 play for the first time since 1977-78. The 2011-12 Cougars made their mark on the record book, posting the most rebounds, the sixth-most points, fourth-most threes, fifth-most assists and second-most assists in WSU single-season history.
Last season also saw Daugherty's first WSU recruiting class cap their impressive careers as a pair of 1,000-point scorers exited along with a three-time academic all-conference selection in addition to the three players who received invites to the WNBA combine. Headlining the group was guard Jazmine Perkins who finished her career as a three-time all-conference selection and WSU's all-time leader in games played and the first player in school-history, male or female, with 1,200+ points, 700+ rebounds and 250+ steals.
In year one, Daugherty instilled excitement around Cougar women's basketball, signing the nation's 16th-ranked recruiting class (Blue Star Basketball). The class also received a top-25 nod from HoopGurlz (No. 24), ranked second in the Pacific-10 Conference and was unquestionably the greatest signing class in school history. Fans' excitement translated into a packed Beasley Coliseum, as WSU more than tripled its attendance from the previous season.
In year two, Daugherty guided the Cougars to an eighth-place finish in the Pac-10, WSU's highest ranking in the conference since also finishing eighth in 1998-99, and the team posted double-digit wins for the first time since the 2000-01 season. Daugherty also followed the most heralded recruiting class in school history with another highly-ranked class in 2008-09.
Following 2008-09, the Cougars ranked among the nation's top 30 teams in both increasing their win total and increasing their RPI ranking. During the regular season the Cougars won six more games than the previous season, ranking 26th nationally and second in the Pac-10 amongst teams making the greatest turnarounds. WSU also moved up 83 spots in the RPI from the previous season, the second-highest increase amongst Pac-10 teams, and tied for the 28th-highest jump nationally.
In 2009-10, the Cougars started to make their move. Despite having the sixth-youngest team in the country, WSU started earning wins and accolades that hadn't been seen in Pullman for years. The Cougars defeated Arizona State in Tempe, Ariz., in front of a national television audience, their first road win over the Sun Devils in more than 13 years. WSU also defeated USC at Galen Center, the team's first road win over the Trojans in more than 11 years.
Individually, following a 33-point scoring barrage against ASU, guard April Cook garnered WSU's first Pac-10 Player of the Week honor in four years, and just the second by a Cougar in the last 13 years. Then-freshman Carly Noyes broke WSU's single-season blocks record, a mark that had stood for 25 years, and became the first player in school history to lead the Pac-10 in the statistical category.
Daugherty also signed her third-straight nationally-ranked recruiting class, and if recent history is any indication, greatness should be expected from the get-go. Multiple players from each of her first three signing classes garnered postseason recognition by Pac-10 coaches and media members following their debut seasons.
2010-11 saw the Cougars take another step forward under Daugherty's guidance while playing the No. 27 toughest schedule in the country. WSU posted the most conference wins, the highest scoring average and highest shooting percentage since 2000-01. The Cougars posted their highest finish since the 1997-98, tying for seventh after posting season sweeps over California and Oregon State and beating Oregon and Oregon State on the same weekend to record their first weekend sweep in conference play since 2001.
WSU finished the year with a school-record 208 made three-point field goals and the second-most assists in program single-season history. The past two Cougar teams have produced two of the top block totals in program history, recording 98 in 2009-10 and 100 last year, the second-best mark in the Cougar single-season record book.
Daugherty's players have received quite a bit of postseason attention since her arrival on the Palouse. In her first season guard Katie Appleton garnered her first-career all-conference honor after being named All-Pac-10 honorable mention. Guard Kezia Kelly was named Freshman All-Pac-10 honorable mention. April Cook and Jazmine Perkins took home a slew of honors following the 2008-09 season, earning mention on the All-Pac-10 Team and the Pac-10 All-Freshman Team. Perkins was also named to the Pac-10 All-Defensive Team. In 2009-10, Cook garnered her second-straight honorable mention all-conference honor, and freshmen Carly Noyes and KiKi Moore combined for a number of accolades. Daugherty continued to produce all-conference selections last season as Perkins and Sage Romberg garnered All-Pac-10 honorable mention honors while Romberg was placed on the Pac-10 All-Freshmen team and Ireti Amojo received All-Pac-10 All-Freshmen honorable mention. It marked the third consecutive season that Daugherty had at least one freshman garner all-conference recognition.
A pair of Cougs received All-Pac-12 accolades in 2011-12 as Perkins received all-Pac-12 honorable mention while both Perkins and Carly Noyes earned all-defensive team honorable mention.
Dating back to her years at Washington, Daugherty has placed at least one individual on the All-Pac-10/12 team each year since 1997.
Daugherty, whose career record stands at 358-323 (.534), has more than 20 years of experience working with WNBA-caliber talent. She began her head coaching career at Boise State, where she coached for seven years (1989-96) and compiled a record of 123-74 (73-31 Big Sky Conference). Under her watch, the Broncos not only made the NCAA Tournament for the first time in school history, but achieved their first national ranking and won their first regular season conference title.
In 1992, the Broncos won the Big Sky regular season championship, and in 1994 they shared the conference crown with Montana and earned an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament. At the conclusion of the 1993-94 season, Daugherty was named Big Sky Co-Coach of the Year.
After turning things around at Boise State, Daugherty continued her success at Washington, where she coached for 11 seasons. After finishing ninth in the Pac-10 in 2000, Daugherty led the Huskies to their first conference title since 1990, the greatest turnaround in conference history. She led Washington to nine postseason appearances in 11 seasons - six NCAA Tournament appearances and three WNIT appearances - and led the Huskies all the way to the NCAA Women's Basketball Championship Elite Eight in 2001.
Daugherty helped a number of players earn individual honors at Washington, with Giuliana Mendiola becoming the school's first Pac-10 Player of the Year, and four players earning District VIII All-America honors.
Home attendance soared under Daugherty's watch at both Boise State and Washington. The Broncos averaged 500 fans per game before Daugherty's arrival. During her tenure, more than 2,000 fans were coming to watch every game, placing Boise State in the nation's top 30 for home attendance in each of her seven seasons. Washington led the Pac-10 in home attendance in both 2002-03 and 2003-04.
The team chemistry formed on the basketball court is a direct result of creating a family atmosphere with Daugherty's staff and players. Daugherty creates a home away from home for her basketball family, consisting of coaches, players and support staff. This environment culminated in 16 players combining for 49 selections to the Pac-10 All-Academic Team at Washington, and 30 student-athletes on the Big Sky Conference All-Academic Team at Boise State. In her five seasons at WSU, nine players have combined for 18 All-Academic selections.
Daugherty's basketball family is involved not only in providing everything necessary to achieve academic excellence, but also the means to becoming involved in community service. Daugherty leads by example, speaking at meetings for the Chamber of Commerce, the Kiwanis and for many women's groups.
A major advocate for healthy heart awareness, Daugherty was named the Sudden Cardiac Arrest Association's National Coach of the Year in 2008. Since becoming a survivor of sudden cardiac arrest Daugherty has become one of the nation's most visible spokesmen, filming a nationally-aired commercial, speaking at fund-raisers for the Hope Heart Institute and the American Red Cross and helping WSU sponsor the inaugural "Cougs Have Heart" basketball game to raise awareness for heart disease.
Daugherty is a member of the Women's Basketball Coaches' Association and is a former member of its Board of Directors. She is also a member of both the State Farm Coaches' All-America Team and the Russell Athletic/WBCA Coach of the Year selection committees and is currently serving on the WBCA Ethics Board, the WBCA All-America selection committee for Region 8 and is the captain of the Pac-12 coaches committee. Daugherty often serves as a clinician for the NCAA YES Clinic at the Final Four, and she has been active in USA Basketball and was an assistant coach for the West Team at the 1995 Olympic Sports Festival.
Daugherty also places high priority on keeping the top local high school talent at home in the Northwest. In her first season with the Cougars, Washington's 3A State Player of the Year Katie Grad (Auburn-Riverside) and Shadle Park's all-time leading scorer Lexie Pettersen (Spokane) were each a part of her nationally-ranked recruiting class. Her second recruiting class featured Carly Noyes of Moses Lake, Wash., a three-time conference player of the year at Moses Lake HS. Her 2010 class, two-time Evergreen Conference Most Valuable Player and 2009-10 Seattle Times All-State (all-classifications) honoree Brandi Thomas, of Elma, Wash., went Crimson. This season, Daugherty welcomes Wyoming's two-time Gatorade Player of the Year in Jordan Kelley (Gillette, Wyo.), one of the top-rated low post players out of Canada in 6-3 Shalie Dheensaw (Victoria, B.C.) who has started for the Canadian U17 National Team and speedy three-time all-state selection out of Spokane's Gonzaga Prep Tia Presley (Spokane, Wash.). This past recruiting class features six players from all over the country including Lia Galderia who was named Hawaii Player of the Year three times.
Several of Daugherty's athletes have gone on to coaching careers at both the high school and collegiate level, including Lisa Fisher, an associate head coach with the Cougars in 2006.
Daugherty served as an assistant coach at Stanford under head coach Tara Vanderveer prior to taking over the Boise State program. She helped guide the Cardinal to one of the finest seasons in school history, finishing the 1989 season with a record of 28-3, an undefeated Pac-10 season and a trip to the NCAA Tournament. Daugherty also had a two-year stint on the Kent State staff as an assistant coach from 1983-85.
Daugherty played collegiate basketball at Ohio State from 1974-78, where she led the Buckeyes to the Big Ten Championship in 1977 and 1978. She is still ranked amongst the school's top 25 in career scoring with 1,137 points. She also ranks fifth in career rebounds (829), is tied for 17th in career field goals made (500) and shares the single-game school record for blocked shots (12 against Michigan State in 1976). At the conclusion of her senior season, she earned first-team All-America honors and was a Wade Trophy finalist the first year the award was presented. Just prior to the start of the 2001 season, The Ohio State University honored Daugherty with an induction into the OSU Athletic Hall of Fame. Daugherty will be inducted into the Westerville High School in December, 2011.
Following graduation in 1978, Daugherty contributed as both a player and coach on several international teams, including a period as a player and coach for the Union Sportive Vierzon Club based in France.
Daugherty, a native of Columbus, Ohio, is the daughter of Naomi and Jim Brewer and has two brothers, Mark and Neil Brewer, and one sister, Ruth Williams. She and her husband Mike are the parents of twins Doc and Breanne.

Magnum Announces Just One Nominee, Welcomes Olivia Arthur and Peter van Agtmael as Full Members
Magnum Photos has announced that just one photographer, Michael Christopher Brown, will join the agency as a nominee this year. Olivia Arthur and Peter van Agtmael will become full members of the agency, and Alex Majoli will continue as president of Magnum Photos.
The announcements were made this afternoon following Magnum's annual general meeting last week in London.
Michael Christopher Brown, who is from Washington State, has recently worked in Libya and Congo and his clients include The New York Times, GEO, Time and The Atlantic. He was one of the subjects of HBO's "Witness" documentary series on conflict photography.
Olivia Arthur joined Magnum in 2008 and was made an associate of the agency in 2011. Her recent work is focused on Saudi Arabia, particularly the lives of women. In 2012 she published a book of her work, called Jeddah Diary.
Like Arthur, Peter Van Agtmael joined Magnum in 2008 as a nominee and was voted an associate in 2011. A winner of the W. Eugene Smith Grant and an ICP Young Photographer Infinity Award, Van Agtmael's work has focused on the U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the legacy of those wars in the United States.

Discover More Ideas You'll Need
Rated 4.8 out of 5 by 4 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by midge Cooler than it looks, when lit it is stunning I bought one of these for a hallway area and loved it so much I bought a 2nd one to match it on the far end of same hallway - they are so great when alit, I use the vintage bulbs that make the gold underside of the bell light up with a contrast to the black, I have gotten more complements than on my much more expensive items. They are eclectic enough to go into many design elements. November 27, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Fissie17 Gorg! It is a stunning compliment to my kitchen / nook table. I took out my builder grade chandelier and replaced it with this - I just wish I would have done it sooner! The light is pretty dim, but works because my kitchen is in close vicinity, and gives off a ton of lighting. When turned on the gold on the inside really glows. I love this so much. Only thing, you will want to buy the chandelier cord for it - it doesn't come with it, it's literally just the shade that you're paying for. May 1, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by SarahfromKansas Great Center Piece We recently remodeled our kitchen, and wanted a fun, slightly industrial, light fixture to go above our sink. When we came across this light, we knew it'd be a great fit. It is bold, and bigger than a typical "above-the-sink" light. The gold is super subtle and really sets the fixture apart from others like it. It completed our kitchen, and added something unique to the room! *On a side note, you do have to buy a light kit to go along with the fixture. We searched the store and found a box sitting out that we thought was the product we needed. We were charged for one light kit, and then went home to find that the box was actually the shipping box the light kits came in! There were twelve light kits inside of it...Not too smart on the employee's part, but we did take the remainders back to the store! Too funny! April 27, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by BethanyH Good addition to our dining room I wanted some kind of statement for our small dining space. The light and kit were easy to install. Initially, I had wanted to install an Edison bulb in this pendant, but the warm light of the bulb plus the gold inside of the bell made my whole dining room turn orange. I put a regular bulb in there and color of the light got much better. My one big annoyance with this light is that there is nothing hiding the ugly lightbulb socket that juts out of the top of the pendant. Most other pendants of this style come to a point to hide the actual light kit. I'm considering fashioning some kind of cone out of metal sheeting to add some interest and hide this ugly bit.

Men's Squash Sweeps Final Shift, Advances To Face Columbia For Hoehn Cup
The Princeton men's squash team earned the right to face Columbia Sunday for the 2014 Hoehn Cup title with a strong late surge against Dartmouth in Saturday morning's semifinal match. With the match even at 3-3 heading into the final shift, Princeton swept the last three matches.
The Tigers will now face Columbia for the second time in nine days when the two teams meet Sunday at 11:30 am. Princeton won a 7-2 match in New York City during the final weekend of the regular season, but they could be sending out a different lineup based on the health of their All-America junior tri-captain, Tyler Osborne.
Osborne, a two-time All-America, led Princeton to the court for the second shift with the Tigers holding a 2-1 lead. He won his first two games against Christopher Jung, but he dropped the third 11-5 and was forced to retire prior to the fourth game. That evened the match at 2-2, but fellow tri-captain Ash Egan fought out of an early 1-0 deficit to win at the No. 8 spot and assure Princeton no worse of a tie entering the final shift.
Dartmouth earned that split with a win at No. 5, but Princeton went back up when junior Samuel Kang swept Nick Harrington at the No. 1 spot. Kang fought for a 13-11 win in the opener, and he carried that momentum to wins of 11-4 and 11-6.
The remaining two matches on court were both close, but the Tigers pulled out each one. With his match even at 1-1, junior David Hoffman won a key 12-10 decision in the third game at the No. 4 spot, and he finished Fletcher Pease 11-6 in the fourth to clinch the team win. Sophomore Sam Ezratty was pushed to a fifth game for the second straight day, but he held on for an 11-9 win.
Princeton was able to play with the lead after senior Dylan Ward (No. 3) and sophomore Michael LeBlanc (No. 6) both won in the first shift. Ward split his first two games, but earned his win with 11-7 and 11-6 victories. LeBlanc was also pushed to a fifth game, but he was in control and finished Michael Mistras off 11-4.
1 - Samuel Kang (P) d. Nick Harrington 11,4,6
2 - Christopher Jung (D) d. Tyler Osborne (7),(7),5 (ret.)
3 - Dylan Ward (P) d. Kyle Martino 4,(10),7,6
4 - David Hoffman (P) d. Fletcher Pease (5),7,10,6

For immediate release
January 8th, 2013'
Bob Hollis appoints Mike Hollis as CEO of Oceanic, AERIS, LavaCore & Oceanpro.
After more than 40 years of leadership in the SCUBA industry Bob Hollis has decided to step down as CEO of Oceanic, AERIS, LavaCore & Oceanpro but remain Chairman of the Board of AUP, the globe spanning empire he built from the ground up. Bob Hollis will cease oversight of the day-to-day operations and devote his time exclusively to product development and research moving forward. "It's time for me to stop worrying about inventory and concentrate on doing what I love - creating great products. I know I don't need to worry about the business because Mike has been unofficially doing it for years already", said Bob about his decision.
President and Chief Operating Officer, Dan Emke stated "We respect Bob's decision. He has been and continues to be an inspiration for me and everyone that knows him. He built AUP from a little light housing company in his dive shop into a multinational entity with five unique and strong brands. AUP stands alone among the competition and will remain there by following the course Bob has charted from the beginning - Innovation. We look forward to the leadership and experience that Mike brings to the table as he assumes the post of CEO. This is not a changing of the guard. It's an acknowledgment of the next obvious step for this successful family run business. He's a proven hands on leader with the ability to take AUP forward while maintaining effective oversight of the day-to-day details. I look forward to continuing our close working relationship."
Mike Hollis stated "Given the team and the resources I have to work with here at AUP I feel fortunate to have this opportunity. My top priority is to continue AUP's proud tradition of industry leadership and innovation. This is the legacy my father has left us all with here at AUP. I want to thank him for all that he has done and will continue to do for the industry and growth of this magnificent company. Looking forward, AUP's brands are set to launch new products in 2013 and beyond that will further set us apart from the competition through the relentless pursuit of innovation and reliability we build into every product we make. As the dive industry recovers from the latest economic down turn so too will we grow stronger and expand our reach by maintaining our relationship with the dealers who keep this industry alive."
Mike Hollis has been intimately involved in AUP from the beginning. As a young man he started out building strobes for his father's fledgling underwater photography equipment company - Oceanic. He went on to become a certified commercial diver doing stints in the North Sea and Gulf of Mexico. He then headed back to the bay area to start Pelagic Pressure Systems, a manufacturer of underwater instrumentation for the dive industry. Since then Mike has been the driving force behind some of AUP's most acclaimed products. Mike's proudest personal contributions to the dive industry have been his work on the OC1, Datamask HUD (Heads up display mask) as well as the Veo line of gauges. Over the years his team's products have won numerous awards in the diving industry and have helped AUP remain among the top players in the SCUBA industry.
AUP's worldwide headquarters is in San Leandro, California in a 120,000 square foot building that houses one of the most innovative and technologically advanced life-support equipment manufacturing facilities in the world. AUP's team of engineers, product designers, and manufacturing experts are dedicated to the philosophy of excellence. One distinguishing attribute that separates AUP from other manufacturers is the commitment to vertical integration. The vast majority of AUP products are designed, developed, manufactured, and tested in its own facilities. NO other dive company can make that statement.

Indiana schools won't need to make up Monday or Tuesday
Indiana schools that canceled classes because of weather on Monday, Jan. 6, and Tuesday, Jan. 7, won't need to make up the lost time, according to the state department of education.
George Frampton, director of the office of accreditation for the education department, confirmed Monday that state superintendent Glenda Ritz has authorized schools to apply for a one-day waiver from the required 180 days of instruction. Later in the day, Ritz's press secretary, Daniel Altman, told The Elkhart Truth that the waiver will be offered to schools for Tuesday as well.
"This is based on the cold and the danger to kids," Frampton said Monday afternoon.
He said Ritz made this decision on Sunday after consulting with her staff. Superintendents of Indiana schools were notified that a waiver was available for Monday on Sunday afternoon, via email or an automatic calling system, Frampton said.
The waiver means that schools can escape the "very severe financial penalty" they would otherwise incur by canceling one day of instruction, he said.
This waiver has been used before, but rarely.
"In the last 15 years, this may have been used maybe three other times," Frampton said, adding that he believes the waiver was last used in 2007 or 2008.
He said the waiver has been used in the past to allow schools to make up just part of several missed days due to weather — like having just five makeup days for eight snow days.
Altman said Ritz decided just before 3 p.m. on Monday to also offer a waiver allowing Indiana school districts to cancel school on Tuesday without penalty. The waiver applies to all public and non-public schools in the state.
By Monday afternoon, all school districts in Elkhart County had announced plans to cancel school for Tuesday.

After spending time and energy to carefully design your business card, you will be excited to start handing them out. But, there is one final step in the creation process: printing. Before clicking print you will need to pick out printing materials that meet your business card needs.
Choosing Your Card Stock
A standard business card is 3.5 by 2 inches. Card stock typically comes in 8.5 by 11 sheets, which allows the card stock to fit in most household printers. When purchasing card stock, you will see a variety of cover weights. These cover weights refer to the thickness of the card stock. The cover weight is the cumulative weight of 500 sheets of card stock. Usually business cards are printed on 80-100 lb stock.
|Image found at biblevista.com
When printing your business cards at home, look for card stock manufactured in perforated sheets. Perforated sheets of card stock are blank, but already have each individual card divided out. There will be lines for you to cut along after the cards are printed to insure each card is even in size. Occasionally you can even purchase perforated sheets that are punch outs so you don't even need to use scissors.
Getting fancy with color and textures
Card stock can be purchased in a variety of textures and colors. The more popular choice for card stock is white or off white with a smooth surface, but thatched or crosshatched textures are two good options to go with as well. if you're feeling extra fancy, you might even consider card stock with a glossy or metallic finish.
If you are printing double sided cards you can purchase card stock that has color and texture on just one or both sides. Card stock that has color and texture on both sides tends to be more expensive and can quickly eat up your budget, avoid using these stocks if money is an issue.
When printing your business cards we recommend you do a practice run. This will ensure that your printer is lined up properly for the size of the card. When going for a practice run use a cheaper form of card stock for the test print. This will save you from wasting the expensive paper in case there is any type of error. Lastly, we also recommend you shop around and sample different types of card stock to find the type that suits your business' identity the best.
Have you found a type of card stock you like using? What is holding you back from printing your own business cards? Ask us any questions you have below!

WIP Wednesday #26
Ongoing projects:
Supernova Quilt-Along
Quilting, quilting, more quilting. Oh, and also? Quilting. I chose to do the converging lines, a decision that has me questioning whether I was of sound mind at the time. Also wondering how much quilting I can do before I actually burn out the motor on my poor sewing machine?
Modern Meadow baby quiltStill hand-stitching that binding. This quilt has been painfully slow into the finish line. I am so ready to get this one off the list, but I've been too busy with Supernova!
Completed tops awaiting quilting:
Hope Valley (the original Supernova)
On hold ... yeah, yeah.
Central Park jelly roll quilt
Figgy Pudding quilt
Wonky Log Cabin
This week's stats:
New projects - 0
Completed projects - 1 (Mod Times)
Currently in progress - 9 (down one from last week)
Again, my apologies for not commenting on all the links last week. It's always such a bummer when I don't have time to get around to them all. Blame Supernova for being so demanding about how it wanted to be quilted. : )
Anyway, I can't wait to see what you've got this week! Just a few quick reminders: 1) Please link to a post from the past week containing a work in progress. Yep, I'm the weirdo who doesn't want a linky full of finishes. : ) It's okay if your post contains finishes, but it must also contain at least one unfinished item. 2) Please link back to my blog in your post. 3) Comment on some of the other links. 4) Enjoy!

Dense straight-line quilting always seems like a good idea at the time, right? I think I have straight-line quilting amnesia - I always forget how time-consuming it is. Luckily, the finished effect is so dramatic. Super Nova is going to be one rockin' quilt when you're done!

Anna Executive Director/Vice President, Private Wealth Management Compliance Global Compliance Division, Hong Kong
After joining the firm, I noticed that all of my colleagues have diverse backgrounds and different strengths. I believe this is how we provide unique solutions that stimulate thinking and knowledge sharing.
My Work
To ensure that the business conducted in Private Wealth Management (PWM) meets internal and external compliance requirements, I perform daily surveillance by reviewing different reports. I also support PWM sales teams on compliance issues. Also, I am responsible for the communication and implementation of compliance policies and procedures in PWM.
While providing compliance support and opinions to PWM professionals, our team also does our best to facilitate the business. Occasionally, our internal clients will ask us to provide them with advice on various regulatory and internal requirement issues as soon as possible. These tasks make my job both interesting and challenging since we have to be very familiar with the latest regulatory requirements and firm-wide policy updates in order to provide efficient and professional compliance support.
My Day
My day consists of a variety of responsibilities. On one hand, we have to satisfy the regulatory requirements and firm-wide policies. On the other hand, it is our job to see that the business conducted in PWM runs smoothly. I believe this balancing exercise is the most challenging part of my job. Compliance officers have to rely on their experience to make decisions with great precision. Furthermore, we need to provide solutions in a timely manner since most issues we encounter are very time-sensitive. However, I must say it is very satisfying to receive feedback from PWM professionals and other colleagues about how my work helps them conduct their business, which ultimately benefits them, their clients and the firm.
Though each of us is responsible for different tasks, we always work closely as a team. We update each other about any issues we encounter and share things in a collaborative manner. We also hold team meetings every day to update each other and discuss ways to improve control policies and procedures.
I am currently working on a global project which involves compliance officers from different offices. I learn a lot from their experience and innovation by exchanging ideas with them. It is a golden opportunity for me to be put into a large group of professionals and accomplish tasks that are very challenging.
My Path
When I graduated from college I joined Goldman Sachs on a part-time basis. I also received an attractive offer to work as a project analyst at another international firm but I'm glad that I ended up accepting the offer from Goldman Sachs. I definitely feel like I made the right choice.
My first impression when I started working here was that the people at Goldman Sachs are really energetic, self motivated, helpful and target-oriented. They encourage input and suggestions from all different levels. There is a very unique culture which ensures that the firm benefits from each individual's contribution.
Also, opportunities are always readily available at the firm. It all depends on how proactive you are in taking chances to improve yourself. In my previous position, I got the chance to learn all about the daily operations in PWM. That experience enhanced my knowledge of compliance control and operations which is extremely useful in my current position.
My major was Industrial Engineering so it came as a bit of a surprise to me when I ended up launching my career at Goldman Sachs. After joining the firm, I noticed that all of my colleagues have diverse backgrounds and different strengths. I believe this is how we provide unique solutions that stimulate thinking and knowledge sharing.
My advice to those considering a career in finance is to figure out what you are really interested in - it is difficult to succeed at something that you don't enjoy. Most of my colleagues love what they are doing, and so do I. That is the most powerful motivation for us to work hard and achieve a strong performance.
