What are these Chinese characters?

I am trying to figure out the Chinese characters in :File:Ben_Long%2C_51_Rue_du_Faubourg_du_Temple%2C_75010_Paris_2008.jpg. 新官園??? I'm especially not sure about the middle character.

Thanks,

: Isn't the middle one ? I think you got the other two right though. Fut.Perf. 11:47, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Drug delivery

I'm looking for a term to describe drug delivery through the blood. Can I use this - "Blood drug delivery"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.64.222.101 (talk) 13:40, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

I need to describe drug delivery systems that can be injected to the blood, like liposomes and nanoparticles, and I'm looking for the right term. 85.64.222.101 (talk) 18:58, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

I need to elaborate drug delivery systems, such as, liposomes, micelles, nanoparticles. I thought about ״Drug Delivery Systems for Intravenous Administration״85.64.222.101 (talk) 13:34, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

When the man said alcohol, tobacco, and firearms, I naturally assumed he was making a delivery." Can anyone trace the original source

:"When the man said alcohol, tobacco, and firearms, I naturally assumed he was making a delivery." Can anyone trace the original source of this? I find it quoted lots of places but I don't know whom to credit. --Trovatore (talk) 00:16, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

::Most sources I can find attribute it to James Wesley, Rawles [sic] in the first book of his Patriots Novels Series, which I have not read. Tevildo (talk) 09:28, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

What is this Arabic text? (small and hard to see)

Hi! What is the [http://gisad.ae/sites/all/themes/gis/images/header-main.gif Arabic text] in this file? It is for the German International School Abu Dhabi. Admittedly it's small and hard to see :(

:Note: A somewhat larger version of the Arabic text on the logo can be seen if you go [http://gisad.ae/de/lageplan here], then click on the map and maximize the image. Deor (talk) 19:44, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
