You’ve heard of sun tea in a jar. You’ve heard (if you are literate in Appalachian tradition) of moonshine in a jar. But did you know that you can now buy jars of not only of sunshine, but of sunshine disguising itself as moonshine?
It’s a perfect accessory for those of you who love the sun during the day, is the sunjar. Have it sit in the sun during the day for several hours to charge and see it radiate at night worth of after-dark illumination. All made possible by modern technology – some LED's, a solar panel and some ingenious thinking.
The Sun and Moon Jars use 2 standard AA rechargeable battery, which is replaceable and Waterproof Plastic cover make them more durable and safe than the Ⅰ. The $19.99 USD Jars can be even left outside to power up in the absence of a suitably sunny window; and I think they’d be perfect in the garden(With the nails)!

Having an alarm clock of some sort in your bedroom is vital, but why settle for something that looks so ordinary when you can settle for the Toothed Mechanical Wheel Clock.
This Machine time clock is a functional timepiece that is shaped like a silver gear wheel, which shall look pretty impressive for the mechanical geeks. The clock exposes the gear wheel which makes it so interesting to watch at the slowly moving gear.
Telling time seems to be difficult on this clock. By looking at the picture attached above, it seems hard for me to figure out where the hour and minute hands are. Anyway, this clock is said to be built with torque mechanism from Japan which is highly accurate that gives a daily error of 2 seconds only. It’s claimed to be a highly reliable and accurate clock but those gears seem not to be my type.
When you’ve fallen in love with machinery you’d love to have some gadgets that expose you with various gears and nuts to sit on your work desk.

Sony's 4K Projector (or Super Mega Ultra HD Projector in my terms), provides 4 times the pixels at a 4096x2160 resolution. Akihabara News says the liquid crystal on silicon projector uses SXRD technology, has a 2500:1 contrast ration, a 2 kW lamp and it produces 11,000 lumens of light. At $114,000 and 268 pounds with no media that can take full advantage of the hardware, I doubt you'd have much use for this...yet. [Akihabara via Electronista]
We already caught of preview of Canon new EOS 5D Mark II 21-megapixel monster, but if you're curious about Canon's other new camera offerings, you may want to hit up Photography Blog, which has gone hands-on with each of 'em. That includes the PowerShot G10 (pictured above), the PowerShot SX1 IS / SX10 IS, the Digital IXUS 980 IS and 870 IS and, of course, the aforementioned EOS 5D Mark II, just in case you need another look at it. Unfortunately, they don't have much in the way of first impressions just yet, or any sample shots, but they do at least have a comparison between the G10 and the earlier G9 model for those considering an upgrade, and plenty of high res photos of each camera to let you examine every nook and cranny. Hit up the links below to dig in.

Many people swear by polyphasic sleep, or the idea of taking frequent naps throughout the day as opposed to sleeping in one long chunk. Leonardo da Vinci was one of the most notable proponents of this seeping method, noting that it helped him be more productive throughout the day. This alarm clock concept follows da Vinci's 3.5 / .5 sleep schedule, meaning that an alarm will sound every 3 hours and 30 minutes indicating that it is time for a nap. Another alarm will sound a half hour later, indicating that it is time to wake up again.
All-in-all, the da Vinci Sleep alarm clock will net you around 3 hours of shut-eye per day (although I have heard da Vinci slept even less than that). Obviously, a schedule like this isn't for someone who maintains a regular 9 to 5 schedule, or operates heavy machinery—but it would be perfect for bloggers, retired persons and the unemployed. This particular clock is only a concept, but you could set a regular alarm fairly easily to try this sleep method yourself. [Yanko]
On the whole, we'd say KURO plasma owners are pretty stoked about their sets. Those who'd prefer a KURO-branded LCD, however, have been waiting anxiously to hear something more from ole Pioneer for months. Thankfully, the firm has finally spoken, and while it doesn't mention any brand / model names specifically, we can assume that those LCD HDTVs we saw emerge in Europe will be gracing US shores in mere months. During the first half of 2009, Pioneer LCD HDTVs will be loosed in North America and Asia, and unless plans change, the panels within will actually be supplied by Sharp. Might we be on the lookout for a sneak peek at CES '09?
Paper shredders are a usual thing in office nowadays. It does all the dirty work, shredding the unnecessary or classified papers to small pieces, better than any human can do.

Proving that sometimes the best gadgets do not need batteries(sometimes), comes this great funny hand-held shredder to handle the super sensitive documents yourself,. So just trust yourself , and you know “Movement is beneficial for healthy!” Only $17.99.

Wow! This fanciful Wind-Up Car Lamp is a concept design but it actually serves a clever and useful purpose in addition to looking cool. I would be a cool decoration and plenty enough to act as a green lamp considering alternative lighting solutions are all the rage right now. And you have no need to worry about changing bulb either, as it uses LEDs. So, just catch the wind and light your own exclusive Camps. BTW, Is this the future of lighting? That, of course, depends on its cost and green lifespan.
