Customizing Silverlight 3 DataGrid Headers
Dan Wahlin demonstrates SL3B's BasedOn feature by way of demonstrating custom DataGrid column headers ... something to put in your pocket, you'll be needing it.
Update: Displaying background activity in a Silverlight RIA application
David Poll revisited his Background Activity control after taking lots of email and feedback. He's got a working example up, and it looks great... get the control and the source!

Jonathan van de Veen attacks a race condition between two DataGrids in this episode 12 of his LOB series... dig into it... he's ratted out a good solution!
SilverLight 2.0: Setting the Background of a Button
Michael C. Neel shows what you get when you do the obvious in changing a button background and what you have to do that's not so obvious to REALLY change it. And obviously to continue on and avoid the 'flat' button, there's even more work :)
Better Unit Tests with Test.Assert() for NUnit/VSTT/SUTF
Jafar Husain explains what you're up against Unit Testing APIs and can you do all this in Silverlight... but of course!
