editWhat are these Chinese characters?
editI am trying to figure out the Chinese characters in File:Ben_Long,_51_Rue_du_Faubourg_du_Temple,_75010_Paris_2008.jpg. 新官園??? I'm especially not sure about the middle character. Thanks, WhisperToMe (talk) 11:34, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
- Isn't the middle one 富? I think you got the other two right though. Fut.Perf. ☼ 11:47, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Drug delivery
editI'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)
- It's also called "mainlining". ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 18:09, 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)
- Almost all drug delivery is ultimately through the blood, some after being absorbed orally or rectally, some after intramuscular injection, some after subcutaneous injection, some after intravenous injection and by other means such as nasally, by inhaler, and by infusion pump. You need to be much more specific, give examples, and tell us where and how you want to use the term. μηδείς (talk) 21:25, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
- Fixed your link. --174.88.134.161 (talk) 23:47, 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)
- That sounds fine to me. — SMUconlaw (talk) 18:29, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
- You might get a better response if you ask at the science desk, since not everyone checks all the desks. μηδείς (talk) 17:25, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
- The question has been moved here to the science desk. μηδείς (talk) 19:38, 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
edit- "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)
editHi! What is the Arabic text in this file? It is for the German International School Abu Dhabi. Admittedly it's small and hard to see :( WhisperToMe (talk) 18:53, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
- Note: A somewhat larger version of the Arabic text on the logo can be seen if you go here, then click on the map and maximize the image. Deor (talk) 19:44, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
- This.--Lüboslóv Yęzýkin (talk) 05:29, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
