Smoon Ombrella Light Protects Against the Sun by Day [Sunshade Lamp]

The Smoon Ombrella is a lamp which is a sunshade which is a "shining sculpture," according to designer Beau & Bien. I don't know if it could be classified as an sculpture, but it's beautiful and useful: a ten-hour charge will allow you to illuminate any place in your home, outside or inside, for six days, without any cables.

For $2,150, however, it's a bit out of most budgets. [Coliseum via Boing Boing]

Puzzle Calendar is Not LEGO Compatible

The last LEGO-ish calendar we saw was kinda boring, but that's definitely not the way we'd describe this Puzzle Calendar (not affiliated with LEGO). It features the days of the week as the top row, which you have to rearrange eveyr month in order to make a correct calendar. What's even better is that if you really, really want today to be Friday, you can totally make that happen. [ThinkGeek via Random Good Stuff]
