What a great idea?!
I just found out about this blog or “e-library”, as they call it, where you can borrow books online, and have them sent to your home. …. its called Maktabaa.
It’s a very simple process to order a book, and they have a good quantity of books.
……but I wonder how long you can keep a book for? hhhmmm…

I LOVE technology. The fact that I can “window” shop from the comfort of my own office/home is FANTASTIC! Note I’ve used the term “window” shop.. Well how can I put this without sounding a tad bit outdated or living under a rock – ummm in plain English I just absolutely cannot SHOP online even if my life depended on it! There I said it. Its sad but true – I just cannot do it.
I can’t buy something without physically seeing it. WOW- I know. It’s a phobia that I have and please trust I am trying to do everything that I can to get over it. I salute all you women out there that courageously shop online, purchase without hesitation, click away and spend your cash through a computer. I truly salute you and hope one day I can do the same, for now all I can do is “window” shop and when I like what I see, I hope in my car and drive to the store!
Anyhow going back to the main topic – I am happy to announce Al Ostoura is now live online!
Here are my picks from their new collection:
FedEx
This logo appears to be very simple, but if you look at the white space between the “E” and “x” in “Ex,” you’ll find it is more complex than you thought. Can you spot the arrow?
Tostitos
These popular party chips are a staple at many backyard BBQs, but chances are, you’ve never noticed the hidden celebration scene concealed within the letters. The second and third “t’s” are sharing a chip over an “i” that is dotted with a salsa bowl. Yum!
Le Tour de France
Named the world’s most famous and prestigious cycling race, bike-lovers and non-cyclists alike are familiar with the event’s emblem. However, you might be missing out on the logo’s most interesting aspect. After careful examination, you’ll notice an image of a person riding a bicycle; the yellow circle is the front wheel and the r is the body.
Amazon.com
Amazon.com has become a go-to source for electronic commerce. Clearly there is an arrow under Amazon, but have you ever thought about its significance? Take a look at where the arrow begins and ends: a and z. This secret message seems to conveys that Amazon offers everything from A to Z!
Hershey’s Kisses
The Kisses logo doesn’t have much to it, but if you look at it sideways, you might see a chocolate kiss formed between the K and the I.
Toblerone
There’s a slightly obscured bear within the Matterhorn Mountain if you look closely. That’s because the candy bar hails from Bern, Switzerland, a city supposedly named for a bear.
Big Ten
Penn State became the 11th member of this university athletic conference, hence the embedded “11” in this logo. That is, until the University of Nebraska–Lincoln became number 12, ushering in a new logo era.
Northwest Airlines
Before merging with Delta, Northwest’s logo was one of the best in the industry. The N and W within the circle are fairly obvious, but did you know the circle also serves as a compass? And guess which direction the arrow in the upper-left-hand corner (or the beginning of the w) is pointing?
