Did You Know Tuesday

Did you know that in October of 2009 the fireplace pictured below was voted as the World’s Most Beautiful Object? Yeah, I know. As ridiculous as it sounds there were 100 objects selected by a group of engineers, and then there was a vote. This won.

It is pretty cool, I must admit. It's a design by a French company, Focus, and rotates 360 degrees to throw heat in any direction. It was originally designed in 1968. Read about it here in Britain’s Telegraph newspaper. (picture from Telegraph’s website)

I want one. C'mon, PowerBall!
