At The Contemporary Museum Shop, they must wish they got a bonus every time they had to explain what the heck this thing is. And to be honest, it's not easy explaining "Harry." Imagine a sort of unscary spider, in eye-catching colors, with no head but way too many legs. Or one of those babies that gets born with its hair all standing up straight. The "legs" are made of highly flexible plastic-covered wire and attached to a very powerful suction cup. Stick it on a flat surface, move the "legs" around where you want them and push between them all those small but vital objects you keep misplacing on your desk, from pens and flash drives to flowers. It's a Design Plus Award winner; $22.95.

'LOST' FINDS A WAY
EXTRA EPISODES IN FINAL 2 SEASONS
Fans of "Lost" have 34 more episodes to look forward to. The show really will get 48 episodes over a three-season span, as first announced. The writers strike only gave time for 14 in 2008, so the extra episodes will be tacked on somewhere in the final two seasons, ABC says. A start date for Season 5 hasn't yet been announced.
