Anybody care to take a whack at what [this arabic script](http://www.flickr.com/photos/85683368@N00/386060704/) might say?

Not sure, I can e-mail it to my uncle and ask him. I’m half lebanese but I can’t read it. 😃

Someone has already posted the translation, “There are no results of the research on” (it breaks off in the middle of the phrase). All I can do is corroborrate that this is indeed what it says in Arabic.

The translation on that page came from a former Doper, of all people, with whom I used to exchange e-mails in Arabic. I succeeded to the position of unofficial SDMB Arabist when he departed.
