We’ve made more progress on the bathroom.  The dumpster’s almost full.

Full Dumpster

Here’s a shot of the cutout window:

Window removed. Cutout will be for glass block.

I have a neighbor at our office that I’ve been get to clean up their front yard.   This seems unreasonable.  I hope the city does something about it.

Anyone have any suggestions on how to help them clean this up?

Messy Front Yard

HTTPBuilder (http://groovy.codehaus.org/modules/http-builder/home.html) looks like a great library for working with RESTful webservices.

Last weekend we ripped out our bathroom. This weekend we finished they gutting.

I’m really interested in seeing the Grails and Groovy work that has been including in STS 2.2.1. I followed the instructions here: http://blog.springsource.com/2009/06/24/installing-sts-into-eclipse-35/, but unfortunately I got stuck at step 6. It kept asking for a mylyn feature group 3.3.0I20091013,3.4.0.

Ugh!

No doubt installing it now has caused the instructions to go out of date.  Fortunately at http://www.eclipse.org/mylyn/downloads/ there were a bunch of weekly updates.  After adding the weekly update sites to eclipse:

http://download.eclipse.org/tools/mylyn/update/weekly/e3.4  and http://download.eclipse.org/tools/mylyn/update/weekly/extras

This enabled me to install STS.

UPDATE

If you want to install STS on Eclipse.  Visit this page:  http://www.springsource.com/products/eclipse-downloads.  It will give you a current version of Eclipse 3.5.1.  Run Update on it, then install the STS link update.

I have to hand it to Peter, the update to WireframeSketcher 1.5 is very cool.  I really like the ability to add icons inside tables, checkboxes inside lists, etc. to make the mockups even closer to the real thing that we create with RIA.  1.5 now lets you add Links, Icons, Bold, Italics, Underline, Strikeout.

The code-complete on the icons really rocks.  Well Done, Peter!

If you use Eclipse, and you do development and you’re not using Mockups, you’re missing out.  Try it out and then go buy a license.

Phandroid has posted a very cool looking android phone, the 8230.  It is reminiscent of the iPhone and I’m sure it will lure some iPhone folks away.

Just downloaded a new android alp go keep this blog updated more frequently. I hope it helps.

This post from Joe, really saved the day.  The gist of it is that you need to specify horizontalScrollPolicy = “on” to have the columns locked to a specific size when you’re resizing a grid and hiding and displaying various columns.
