    UINib *nib = [UINib nibWithNibName:@"Cell" bundle:nil];
    [self.brickView registerNib:nib forCellReuseIdentifier:@"Cell"];
    [self.brickView reloadData];
}

- (CGFloat)brickView:(BrickView *)brickView heightForCellAtIndex:(NSInteger)index
{
    return 100.;
}

- (NSInteger)numberOfColumnsInBrickView:(BrickView *)brickView
{
    return 3;
}

- (NSInteger)numberOfCellsInBrickView:(BrickView *)brickView
{
    return [self.list count];
}

- (BrickViewCell *)brickView:(BrickView *)brickView cellAtIndex:(NSInteger)index
