It sounds like your widget references the global $loop for some reason. This could possibly be due to the internals of the Widget class or due to interference of other plugins, i guess.

I would recommend creating a custom template and utilize a custom query to do this. This is because changing the maximum posts to any number will affect every page that has a list of posts unless you specify otherwise. By making your own query you can set the number of posts you want by using … Read more

Neither wp_enqueue_style() nor wp_register_style() have a parameter to allow them to be loaded in the head, rather than the footer, as their script counterparts do.
