Sgath an Tighe is a lovely old Victorian Villa in an elevated position giving stunning views over the Clyde estuary. It is the home to a Bed and Breakfast, self catering accommodation and also 'Recreate'- who provide craft courses and retreats (including courses in our fully equipped pottery.)
Bed and Breakfast accommodation comprises two main en suite rooms- a large double and a family room with a double and a day bed that converts into a further double. Both have amazing views out over the water.
The rooms cost £70 per night for couples sharing, and £45 for single occupancy. There is a small increase for children over 12 in the family room. For larger families we also have an adjoining single room that is available as an add on booking for £25 per night. We serve a wholesome, mainly vegetarian breakfast with home made breads and lots of local produce.
Sgath an Tighe is an ideal place to use as a base for exploring the beautiful unspoiled Cowal Peninsular, which is becoming an ever more popular destination for people looking to immerse themselves in wild places. Cowal has everything- high rugged mountains, beautiful lochs, forests and beaches and yet is one of the more accessible parts of the Highland region with good transport and ferry links from the Central Belt. Dunoon itself has been a tourist destination of repute since the heyday of the paddle steamers, and we are on the edge of Britains newest National Park.
Whilst staying at Sgath an Tighe, visitors might also be interested to try their hand at pottery, or other crafts- see our website for details of planned workshops and courses, or if possible we will plan something just for you!
We also run an occasional programe of spiritual retreats and other themed weekends intended to provide quiet escapes from busy daily life- again, see our website for details.
We look forward to welcoming you!
Family Room; A large en-suite room at the front of the house with fantastic views over the Clyde. Sleeps 2 adults and but also has a day bed that converts into another double. Ideal for a family escape! We can also supply a travel cot should it be required. This room costs £70 per night for double occupancy, £45 for single occupancy (use coupon SP1 if booking on line.) Kids under 12 stay for free. Kids over 12 £10 per night each.
Double room; A large en-suite room at the front of the house with fantastic open views out over the Clyde. Travel cot available on request. This room costs £70 per night. However we do offer a single persons discount- in which case the room will cost £45 per night. (When using our on-line booking service, enter code SP1 into the 'coupon' box.)
Larger families might also like to consider adding on an adjoining single bedroom for an additional £25 per night. This room is only available as an 'add on' as users need to share en suite faciliti
Note: Prices are a guide only and may change on a daily basis.
From the Western ferry terminal, turn left along the seafront towards Dunoon, and after about a hundred meters, the yellow lines end. There are bus stops on both sides of the road. Sgath an Tighe is up a narrow lane on the right, signposted at the bottom 'Mount Lebanon'.
Follow the signs up the lane, and then turn right onto our drive. There is car parking at the bottom of the hill, or drive up the hill to unload.
If in doubt- ring us from the ferry, and we will send out someone to wave you in!
Dunoon is surprisingly easy to get to- an hour or so west of Glasgow. Basically, keep going until you see the hills over the sea, then get on a ferry.
Getting to Dunoon
By rail – to Gourock
By ferry – from Gourock, Bute or Kintyre
By bus – McGills, Citylink and local bus services
By road – A82 from Glasgow heading north up Loch Lomondside or A82 from the north to Tarbet, Loch Lomond, then A83 over the Rest and Be Thankful, then A815 into the Cowal peninsula; or from Glasgow M8/A8 to Gourock and ferry to Dunoon.
If you use Western Ferries (who now run the only car ferry over to Cowal) from McInroys Point to Hunters Quay, you will arrive in Cowal around a couple of hundred yards from Sgath an Tighe.

Another great pair of Docksiders. As soon as I put them on my feet I knew they were the right shoe for me. Haven't gotten a pair of Docksiders that I don't love wearing.
Thank you for adding another Dockside to your Sebago collection! These are perfect to wear if you want to dress up a casual look. We love hearing your feedback on styles, thank you!

Walking alot.........Never ceases to disappoint!
I was very surprised to learn, upon first wearing my Docksides, that there was a well padded sole! I mean, it actually had support for my arches! I am very impressed. I wear my Docksides just about every day--to school, the beach, even when I go shopping. *I have them in Ivory. The color is slightly different then the picture for it looks as if it has glitter in it or something. The color is actually a very light beige, no glitter. Still cute!
Perfect! We are so thrilled you are able to wear these everywhere and find them to be truly comfortable. Thank you for this fabulous review on this traditional Dockside!

Sized as ExpectedBest Boat Shoes ver!
Sebago Docksides are the best boat shoes I ever had. They are comfortable from the moment you put them on right out of the box. Plus they last a long, long time. Docksides look sharp with jeans, shorts and capri pants and I always get complimented on them. I have pairs, one in navy and another in brown elk. I'd like to purchase a third pair but I can't decide which ones! Thank you Sebago!
You are welcome! We are glad you are able to wear these with pretty much anything. There are so many colors to choose from you should just every one! Thank you so much for this review on the Docksides.

Things looking bright for Indians baseball
By VERNON SIKES
Herald Correspondent
Things will be looking much brighter soon at Yazoo City High School's baseball field, thanks to a great deal of planning, and sizeable contributions from individuals and Yazoo City's Public Service Commission.
Briggs Hopson, board attorney for the Yazoo City School Board, announced at last Thursday's city school board meeting that Cooper Lighting of Vicksburg had offered to provide the necessary lights and crossbars. Additionally, Superintendent Dr. Arthur Cartlidge said Public Service Commission (PSC) will donate the poles for the lights and will install the poles.

The premier edition of artMRKT Hamptons, which runs through Sunday, July 17, kicked off with a benefit and VIP preview yesterday evening in a sprawling tent on the grounds of the Bridgehampton Historical Society. A festive crowd of collectors, curators, artist, critics, and vacationers filled the aisles to look at art while sipping champagne and enjoying small bites from local eateries. Thirty-five galleries from across the country brought a colorful mix of contemporary art in a variety of media by established and emerging artists from around the world. A+ was there to capture the players with some of the best works on view. See more images from artMRKT Hamptons after the jump.

On a noisy polemic is enhanced by a choral accompaniment to the folksong-like melody. Vocal glissandi and shouted speech wittily emphasize the word bitch, and more humour occurs at the words O Death, its my opinion where, to the marking Andante religioso, the phrase is set to a mocking plagal cadence. In On the death of Robert Ruisseaux Maw pairs the voices (latterly as a stark two-part canon) to create a sombre elegy.
With its swift pace and gradual crescendo, On a henpecked country squire gives a vivid portrayal of the husband literally nagged to death. Altos and sopranos chase each other in imitation, then basses and tenors follow suit. The lady famed for her caprice finds her ephemeral character evoked through the word-painting of the word butterfly; and equally her want of goodness as the second syllable of the word lands on a biting dissonance.
Clearly Burns did not like the eponymous Andrew Turner! The epigram recounts that the Devil planned to mak a swine, but changing his mind he shaped it something like a man / And cad it Andrew Turner. Maw tells the tale to a rollicking tune with tattoo-like accompaniment.

"Very disappointing"
Expensive given that it's in the outskirts of Cardiff. Very noisy on Friday and Saturday night due to weddings. The room was a let down for the price paid - very much standard business hotel with no trimmings, though the website would lead you to believe there might be some nice extras; there aren't any. Shower gel dispenser in the bathroom, rather […] than individual toiletries. No room to unpack anything more than 2 nights worth of clothes. Terrible TV. Not even a clock... They offer an upgraded room with a little extra but I think they should have been included in the standard rooms given their cost. The food in the restaurants was also very poor sadly.

We have stayed here for many years over the last ten years abd this will definetly be the last. The hotel was noisy on both nights. we had emailed for a quiet room and were put between 2 groups of young girls who were partying in thier room until 11 o clock before going into Cardiff. we did complain at desk on departure and were given a card to email […] on or next visit. i explained that we had already done that this time. The breakfast room is now far to cramped and the Hot buffet was luke warm. we ate in the Village pup which was dirty and noisy as there was a wedding going on. we normally eat in the restaurant but it now only serves Itatian food which my husband does not like.

We stayed at the Village because it is close to family. It is a comfortable, reasonably well-equipped hotel. Free WiFi. But what set it apart was the customer service.

2 night stay either side of a day's work. Very pleasant room with views to the north including Castell Coch! 2 of us in the room but only one chair and that was at the desk.

Fri night booked table in the Italian themed dining room for 8.30pm It was busy and it […] was 8.57pm before our order was taken and the food arrived at 9.30pm, very tasty but a long wait.

The same was true of breakfast on Sat and Sun, great service and the hot plate and toaster worked very well, although as we left at 9.45am on Sun there was a huge queue of about 25+ disgruntled people waiting to get in!

"Good facilities on site Inc costa and Italian."
I booked a family room in order to get extra space and asked for the sofa bed to be made up so I could use it and my elderly father use the main bed. On arrival we only had a double bed in the room and the sofa bed was not made up. It transpired that whereas the hotels own website states sofa bed is for children aged 12 and under this was not made clear […] on the Expedia site through which I booked. We should have requested a twin room. I was told that a twin was not available on the Friday night we arrived so the sofa bed was made up and proved very uncomfortable. The following day we were moved to a twin and well looked after by the staff who sympathised but were unaware of the problems we had on arrival. Breakfast was good and the staff (all locals) looked after us. Good to see cleaners on duty most of the time and no problem with car parking arrangements although it can be a very long walk from the car to your room in the annex block! Would probably stay again but not with an elderly relative. It's a younger persons venue especially given the activity and noise in the lobby / foyer. LisateaveKontrollitud Expedia kliendiarvustus
"Oh Dear a sqeeky floorboard"
The only reason this hotel misses out on the Full 5 points is because the hotel room had a creaky floorboard in a constantly used spot & I was very disappointed with the bed as it was just 2 single beds pushed together,I ended up sleeping inthe middle in a dip & then woke up to neck pain due to the odd sleeping position.

"Not recommended - Sorry!"
1. Initial impression good, but this did not last. " Don't use the lift" - it is somewhat temperamental! 2. Room a good size & the bed comfortable. Lighting not good. 3. Elements of the housekeeping, both in our room and more so in the hotel generally left much to be desired. 4. The spa is super - except that it is soooo busy catering for the local […] population- we could not get in. 5. Food - in my opinion this was the worst aspect of our stay. Ready meals, reheated was about the level of the offer. I only had one 3 course meal, and did not wish to take another. Breakfast was satisfactory, but did not show any originality. The staff could do with some further training in how to run a decent restaurant. White wine served luke warm, lack of suitable cutlery for some dishes, in some cases no understanding of what was asked for. 6. General cleanliness of restaurant premises was badly in need of attention. Do I need to say more? Overall, I could not award more than 2**. LisateaveKontrollitud Expedia kliendiarvustus

"Disappointing room for the price, but great staff"
Didn't start off well: I misunderstood the 'early checkin' message in the Experia email, meaning we couldn't check in from 11am unless we paid £10 in advance. But the staff were very helpful, did the paperwork and took the luggage so we could collect the key later when the room was ready. The room was modern, and clean. But it was quite basic, more […] like a budget hotel with little storage (and a rather annoying shelf unit under the hanging rail, even for shirts) and no drawers. But the room was spacious so just had to leave clothes in the case on the floor. I was disappointed at the 'luxury' missing, for what i think was a luxury price (I could have stayed at Whitchurch Travelodge for fiftypounds less a night). Our room was noisy from the bar and the smokers outside Starbucks. We just wanted to get some sleed after attending a funderal. The staff were great. They moved us upsatirs, to the back of the hotel and offered to move our luggage. The room turned out to be an upgrade (a bit bigger bed, stackbucks instant coffee, one biscuit, faecloths, sky tv). Breakfast was ok. Nice range of food, but the cooked breakfast seemed a bit run of the mill (again, for the price and compared to other Devere hotels I've stayed in). But once again, the staff were great. Was very rouwdy on the Friday night (lots of drunk people carry drinks up the stairs), so be warned if you're not part of the event! Can't fault the staff, who even remembered we changed room and asked if it was ok. LisateaveKontrollitud Expedia kliendiarvustus

"Dropped the ball a few times, but we slept well."
The floors in the new annex squeaked so much. I have never heard such squeaky floor boards in a new construction. People up stairs were walking around and the squeaks were irritating.The fire alarm went off at 9 in the morning and there was no hotel staff there to tell us what was happening so we had to gather everything we could and get outside. It […] was a false alarm but the staff didn't seem to care about our interrupted stay. It's not near the city centre so their website is a bit misleading.

"Could be good, let down by noise and service"
We booked this as it was the only place we could find to stay after the Wales v NZ game. Stayed twice This time the rate had nearly doubled from our last stay but there was no alternative. Room was comfortable, clean and smelled of paint when we arrived. We returned to our room at 2200, for a cup of tea and discovered that there were no biscuits - what's […] the point of a tea tray with no biscuits? Lights out at 2230 to realise that our room (168) must have been directly above the disco and the DJ felt like talking in between tunes. Eventually got to sleep to be awoken by the guys returning to room 166 at 0315, obviously having enjoyed a long day out, they only talked, shouted and roared with laughter for about an hour. Got up, discovered that we only had one hand towel, the shower gel was in a refill pack so was very difficult to extract from the bottle, and the shower was certainly not a "power shower". Breakfast - all good but why no potatoes or hash browns? Why is it group policy not to do potatoes for breakfast? Checkout - all of the above mentioned to the lady behind the counter who eventually tore herself away from the computer in the back office when the checkout queue threatened to spill out through the door. Her attitude led me to believe that she couldn't care less - fine, there are other hotels in Cardiff, I've already booked different ones for my December, February and March visits.

"Choose Upper Deck rooms if you can"
Basic rooms have everything you need. Bathroom rather small and the Shower is immovable and not forceful. You get a service station like soap dispenser In the basic (campers room) You also get the basic Sky , but no movies or kids channels . Upper Deck rooms are same size , but have fabulous beds and mattress toppers for a very comfortable night sleep […] . You also get lots of complementary Starbucks coffee, etc. also good quality bath products. Problem is, the Upper Deck rooms do not have space for an extra sofa bed, so family rooms are of the basic "campers" variety. Pool and gym facilities are of a very good standard. (Large pool) only problem is that if you have A family they can only swim a limited times and teens have to be over 16 year of age (yes really) to swim during the normal times. This can really limit your access to the pool. This is a real shame as its open till 10pm ! Breakfast on the weekend is very busy so expect to wait up to 15 mins for a seat. It's situated In a very crowed area of the bar/ lounge, so you end up elbowing people, as you try to get round the busy buffet ( between 9.30 – 10.15am sat & sun) The quality of the breakfast is good for the price and there is plenty of variety LisateaveKontrollitud Expedia kliendiarvustus
"Hotel amenities"
The hotel was more basic than I had expected. The soap dispenser in the bathroom did not work so we had to lean across into the bath to wash our hands. Impossible for children to do! I returned from the Cardiff Arena and had hoped to order food from the pub or room service, but it was closed for food and no room service available. We went for a swim […] the next morning. The pool was cold, the hairdryer didn't work and the spinner for wet costumes didn't work either. Overall very disappointed. LisateaveKontrollitud Hotels.com kliendiarvustus

American Art Flower Holder Made in United States, North and Central Americaor England, Europe 1860-80 Artist/maker unknown, English or American Silver Currently not on view 1902-339 Gift of Mrs. William D. Frishmuth, 1902 |
LabelThis flower or posey holder known as a Tussie (knot of flowers) Mussie (moist moss), was a nosegay for formal wear. It might have replaced a fan, especially in the winter season, as a dressy accessory to be carried. The chain, attached to the holder at one end and fitted with a finger ring at the other end, made the ornament more secure when whirling in the waltz. The "vase" was stuffed with damp moss which kept the flowers fresh, and a silver pin fit across the flaring, filigree leaf and held the flowers in place. This form was a decorative successor to the pomander ball - a 17th century confection of spices, herbs, and fruit rinds, in a perforated, silver vessel sometimes worn on the chatelaine and which supposedly protected the wearer from air borne diseases and offensive odors. At the end of the 19th century, Tussie Mussies were manufactured in quantity in England and Europe and probably in America although few are marked. The wirework in intricate and the designs individualistic. |

Sila examines the competing interests shaping the future of the Canadian Arctic and local Inuit population. Set on Baffin Island in the territory of Nunavut, it follows a climate scientist, an Inuit activist and her daughter, two Canadian Coast Guard officers, an Inuit elder and two polar bears as they see their values challenged and their lives become intricately intertwined. Equal parts Inuit myth and contemporary Arctic policy, Sila uses puppetry, projections, spoken word poetry and three different languages; English, French & Inuktitut.

Zekrom, as i'm a sucker for black & blue.
Reshiram is my favorite out of the two, I like Fire better than Electric, and I think it looks much cooler than Zekrom.
Put your hands in mine, ride through space and timePokécheck
All the way up here, it's all bright and clear
Right here, right now, is how far we've come
reshiram is cooler to me but i think he would have been better with the colors swapped, between the 2.

Zekrom. Both are cool, but definitely Zekrom.

I think Reshiram has a better design, but I prefer Zekrom's type combination and color.
Zekrom gets an instant advantage over Reshiram cause of speed plus it gets the perfect moves to KO it

Zekrom. Such a cool looking Pokemon. Pretty much the best Pokemon to come out of Gen 5, which is saying something cause there's a lot of Gen 5 Pokemon I really love. To be honest, its right up there with Charizard, Typlohsion and Lugia as one of my all time faves. The whole Thunder God thing its got going on is great, with a brilliant moveset to boot.
I like Zekrom's design more, even though Reshiram is technically better from a competitive battling standpoint.
Zekrom... I think it looks better, plus black is one of my favourite colours... And I like its typing more than Reshiram's; I'd choose Dragon/Electric over Dragon/Fire any day.
I prefer Zekrom better too. I think that the Electric-Dragon type combination is better than the ever-so-predictable Dragon-Fire, and I like how Zekrom looks better. One last thing is its name. I love that Zekrom sounds like something computerized. That also supports how it's part Electric Type in a way...
I love both, but ever since I've seen them when they were first revealed I've always preferred Reshram. :3 It's just fluffier and prettier. Don't get me wrong; Zekrom is awesome, too.
I'm that one unlucky person who has never, EVER, encountered a shiny.
Thanks to E-t-H, Chapter of Charizard, BAP Blackjack, and Shadow♠ for the graphics~
I prefer Zekrom's design over Reshiram's. Besides, electricity is way more satisfying than fire.

Zekrom looks cool and it's Electric type. Instant win.
The only thing Reshriram's got over Zekrom is that it's white.
Reshiram looks cool to me and I have always preferred the Fire type.

I hope now Ubuntu totaly commits to eveliness, why, because then many of the users that use it today run away, not all but lets say a bit more or less than 50%, maybe the get new windows-daus as replacements maybe even more than the ones that left them, but this 50% userbase of todays ubuntu users (some of them did run away earlier down the road so maybe its not 50% from todays smaller userbase), because we need demand to a new Desktop-ready Linux, or to fix the choices we have.
Today other than ubuntu for desktop users (that dont want to use a 2 year old gnome or something like that) there is basicly fedora or archlinux, and some other distries that base on them. Yes if you like to compile all stuff maybe you could even consider gentoo a desktop alternative, if you have at least a quadcore, or a stronger dualcore. Else at some point you dont have the pations to wait for the updates compiling.
Ok you could switch to something like linux mint, but then you could also just install another ppa to ubuntu and deinstall a few packages and you are at the same point, that does not really help much, or changes much.
I find that today a bit sad, because arch linux packagemanagement tool is a joke, first you have to install with the normla packagemanager another packagemanager yaourt, then the interface from this packagemanager is worse than what I used in gentoo 10 years ago. It looks like a linux-from-scratch helper script or something like that. Also the packages in AUR having often bad quality.
Also fedora just when I give it a shot, fails to stay on par with ubuntu, they supposed to be more bleeding edge and have faster releases to newer stuff, but at the moment the opposite is true, ubuntu will release in a month or so, a release with a more or less complete gnome-shell 3.8 included, fedora will release that several months later. And no using Fedoras Rawhide isnt a alternative, have that updated on my laptop at the moment and that is at least true for a weak, I cant even login to X or Cli...
So its a bit sad, its a bit like Windows gets many hate for vista or 8 and then suddenly in Linux there would start a default-desktop-war. That would be bad timing wouldnt it ^^
And I find it funny how strong marketing works when you look on the naming shemes that are official or are mainstream. Nobody even says Android/Linux, so because of his drm stuff, they at least see that its something different, ok with Android/Linux instead of only Android you could understand that, because Linux itself is not a name that stands for free software or something so if there is no GNU/Linux you know it is not at least 99.99999% opensource. But even thats a difficult Term, RMS dont think that a distri even like debian is fully free, so there are a few full free linux versions. basicly you should only call them GNU/Linux or am I wrong here, like tristian Linux or somethign like that.
So would RMS be happier to call a not 100% free linux GNU/Linux because it values his big contributions to the os that is not only the kernel, or would he be unhappy, because someone would use the word gnu meaning non-freesoftware basicly ^^.
It sounded to me that rms wants to call each linux gnu/linux at least if gnu tools are used there. So I find it a bit funny because then they would give their name for stuff they dont want to happen.
So calling ubuntu -> ubuntu/linux and fedora gnu/linux would be funny because even fedora is not really 100% free like rms defines it it also does not only have fully free software included, like the firmwares etc.
But I think too, that ubuntu now defines a new category of linux, it would be easier if they fork also the kernel (more than distries do anyway) than it would be easier than it would be Ubuntu/ukernel or something ^^ than we could call each ubuntu mint its a ukernel System ^^ but thats also only because the term linux did get missused sadly. So now you cant call anything precisly, so android uses a linux kernel and therefor its linux, but its very different from a "normal" linux. it has nearly nothing except its usb-stack that is way better than at least windows 7 its usb stack, and some of its drivers, but others not...
Strange... but yes its a bit hard to now call ubuntu GNU/Linux.

drunk or dumb?
yaourt is not the arch packagemanger....
pacman is.
If you use yaourt to use AUR has nothing todo with how arch package management work. Its exist a shitload of different AUR-helpers, yaourt is one of them. Non of them is official and non is neded. AUR is a place you can distribute your own packagebuilds if you dont understand the difference between that and the packagemanager pacman you should probably not choose arch ither way.
as always poor trolling
1.) ok i quote your first fail "Should Nokia discontinue the development of the Qt Free Edition under these licenses, then the Foundation has the right to release Qt under a BSD-style license or under other open source licenses. The agreement stays valid in case of a buy-out, a merger or bankruptcy." from kde foundation
2.) second fail, digia commercial Qt don't provide any DRM inside[as always trolling in fantasies] and you can prove it by downloading the demo for any OS and check the SDK or looking up the symbol table[very unlikely you have the skill to do it], Qt Commertial due to its license can access safely[from a legal POV] the in OS DRM plataform[windows media/itunes SDK/IOS SDK/VxWorks DRM native API] or write your own using Qt but is not inside Qt and Digia is can't be responsible of what you do with their SDK[like KDE foundation can't be blamed for killing kittens if i use Qt LGPL to program my kitten killing machine].
3.) "cross-DE quest for a working multimedia stack" <-- WTF, KDE won't do it cuz is insane not cuz digia LOL that is why they focus on FFMPEG/Gstreamer[Default since quite a while ago]/VLC in combo with pulseaudio/sdl which 3 are quite crossplataform and they work just fine with Gnome too. and if you are reffering to phonon, its not a cross DE stack but an internal KDE API to let you use multimedia setting in a KDE fashion regardless the backend AKA you code in phonon API instead of pulseaudio/alsa/OSS/VLC/Xine/ffmpeg/gstreamer/SDL/Cocoa/Win32PE WMP API/etc and phonon will detect/decide wich backend use to fullfil your requirement[pretty much like KDE solid do with lower level drivers or KIO] andwith this with 3 fails in a row, seriously troll your MMO forum, this one is still too much of a challenge for you
I guess the only way to tell would be to ask FSF themselves. From what I was able to find after a brief look at the issue on Wikipedia, FSF said that Android and uClinux (which does not use glibc and very few GNU packages) should not be called GNU/Linux. But they don't object to Debian officially calling itself "Debian GNU/Linux" at all. The libre distributions (Trisquel et al) are just officially endorsed, I believe.
An interesting interpretation that I have seen of whether to consider a system GNU/Linux or not is to compare the size of all the GNU packages installed by default with the side of the default kernel. If GNU ⪆ Linux, then it's GNU/Linux. If GNU ≪ Linux, then it's not GNU/Linux.
No, DRM is not part of the Qt "bu$ine$$" model. DRM is just a negative side effect of what can happen.
"cross-DE quest for a working multimedia stack": can't comment on that, you will have to elaborate…
"Including Qts first priority DRM-infested, patented shit": I'd like you to pinpoint this in the Qt source code for me, where exactly this DRM, of which you speak, lies.
Here's a question for you:
What makes you think people can't implement DRM into their modified GTK, then use that in their proprietary programs?
Guess what, they CAN.
It's not like you can remove the DRM from the modified GTK, when the proprietary programs depend on it! Specifically, you will have to crack those programs, to bypass DRM.
This all assumes, you want to use those proprietary programs that depend on that… otherwise you don't have to use those modified versions.
You are indeed correct, I should have left the F out from the FOSS.

The advancements over the years in stem cell research is not only helping cure humans, but our furry family friends.
Susan and Tim Enright's 5-year-old Chocolate Lab, Norman, had a stroke in April that left him paralyzed. Now veterinarian Dr. Ronald Anders is performing stem cell treatments to help Norman recover.
The procedures may cost up to $2,250 dollars but for the Enrights, its worth it.
"If it works, if it gets him up and walking at any quality of life again. We don't expect him to be out there chasing the Frisbee, but if he does that will be a bonus," says Tim Enright. Dr. Anders pulled fat cells and sent them to a lab to duplicate and create 4 million stem cells. They are sent back, and injected into Norman. For Dr. Anders, this new technology makes treating animals worth while.
"It makes it much easier but it also makes it more rewarding because you see a patient like this that we couldn't help years ago that now we're able to help. The dog in most cases would be put to sleep but in this case the dog continues to thrive," says Dr. Anders.
For animal owners, this new technology allows families to hold onto the family pet a little longer.
"5 years ago even the vets would've said there's nothing we could do and we probably would've just said put him to sleep. So it opens up a whole new avenue of choice for people," says Susan Enright.

Linus is known to be a good shepherd of cats, so once he is convinced the rest of the kernel world will probably follow suit. Thanks for not summarizing the details of the debate, not interested.
About the rest: what a wonderful display of condescension! Let me repay you in kind. Yes, I am dead serious; reality is not too consistent, even in Physics. Your typical Physics 101 course shows you a bunch of answers, but it doesn't even teach you the language to start making questions of your own. Once you delve deeper you are taught the real value of those answers (which is little) and how to question them, which is the truly scientific way of proceeding.
You are right that this is not the place to show you the cracks in reality; and anyhow, why should anyone want to make you question reality, if you feel comfortable with it? Let others face the voids of infinity and feel their stomachs turn and the ground under their feet open, so you can go back to your kernel code listings and feel all smug about it.
But all those onanistic references have earned you at least a little peek. The stumbling blocks in our knowledge of the physical world are the same that Heraclitus of Ephesus faced 2500 years ago: identity and infinity, which are subsets of the general problem of being. How can the the river keep being equal to itself, and yet it is ever changing? How can the arrow travel a distance which can be infinitely subdivided? In modern physics infinity rears its stomach-turning face in long series of infinities which should cancel each other but don't, or in a Universe which should be finite but doesn't seem to be. Meanwhile identity shows up in a zoo of subatomical particles which are constantly changing state and whose duration is often a matter of femtoseconds, but all equal to each other.
It is easy to predict that 2500 years from now Physics will be much changed, but mankind will still not have the answer to the fundamental questions: is the Universe finite or infinite? What are things made of? And the best of all: why is there anything instead of nothing? The words of Hippocrates of Kos will probably be as valid as they were 24 centuries ago:
But men do not have the science to examine those things which are veiled based on those which are apparent: using arts similar to the human way of being they do not recognize it: which is that the minds of the gods taught them to imitate their godly works, knowing what they do but not knowing that which they imitate.

So Sokal's affair hadn't taught you anything.
That might at least give you an understanding of difference between Zeno's stuff and QED one and lack of relationship between those beyond the use of the same word.

As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain; and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality.

How can the arrow travel a distance which can be infinitely subdivided?
The funny thing here is that current physics says basically that you can't infinitely subdivide neither the distance, nor the time - it's all quantized. If you could subdivide both distance and time infinitely, it works out ok again, as well (just that this type of mathematics was developed 2000 years later). But if you feel uncomfortable with infinity, take the current view of the universe, which is finite and quantized in time and space.
Why is there anything instead of nothing?
Now this is a real hard problem, but even in math you have to accept some assumptions before you can even ask a single question.
Posted Jun 28, 2007 23:40 UTC (Thu) by man_ls (guest, #15091) [Link]
you can't infinitely subdivide neither the distance, nor the time - it's all quantized.
If I remember correctly, one way to derive the equations of quantum mechanics was to suppose that particles could only be in the vertices of a lattice, and then make the separation between lattice nodes go to zero.
By the way, "quantized" doesn't mean that a magnitude cannot be infinitely subdivided; it means that it can only take certain values. Those values need not be equally spaced, and they can be determined to arbitrary precision too, like the energies for a particle. Particles will usually be in a superposition of states so their energy cannot be ascertained. The same happens for time and space; but those two magnitudes are not quantized and so the particle has a wave function which spreads over space.
Perhaps I misunderstood you? Are you talking about a different theory?
But if you feel uncomfortable with infinity, [...]
[...] take the current view of the universe, which is finite and quantized in time and space.

In this webcast: The New Three Tier Architecture: HTML5, Proxies & APIs, @landlessness and @kevinswiber discussed the 3-tier architecture of presentation, logic and data and the technologies that underlay these tiers, which power the mobile web. Behind the logic and presentation layers, the data tier is traditionally driven by relational databases. Today, with rich APIs available for developers to store application data, a traditional RDB is often not used by modern apps.
API facade is an important design pattern in an API designer's toolbox and a powerful tool for app developers who need to work with APIs they don't control. In a 4 part series of webcasts, our hosts explore essential patterns that enable API teams and app developers to implement and improve their API designs and apps.
