Qumu's upgraded enterprise video integration brings more power to Microsoft® SharePoint 2013®
San Bruno, CA - March 4, 2014 - Qumu (NASDAQ: QUMU), the leading business video platform provider, today announced the inclusion of Speech Search along with several other features to the expanded functionality of the Qumu Video App for Microsoft® SharePoint 2013®. Building on Qumu's award-winning Video Control Center platform, the Qumu Video App for SharePoint delivers a seamless, integrated enterprise video solution within SharePoint that can scale globally for even the largest enterprises. The enhanced SharePoint 2013 app is available immediately along with the existing Qumu solution for SharePoint 2010.
In addition to offering a superior video streaming experience, the Qumu Video App which was released in December, 2013, includes comprehensive video transcoding, advanced filtering, unrestricted scalability and live video webcasting features. In the most recent update, Qumu has added several new pieces to the integrated enterprise video framework, including Speech Search capability within the Qumu video player.
"By bringing Speech Search functionality to SharePoint 2013, we are giving more power and capabilities to video users throughout SharePoint and across the enterprise," said Vern Hanzlik, Qumu's Senior Vice President and General Manager. "Since 2009, we have continued to integrate enhancements to our solution, clearly demonstrating our commitment to deliver scalable enterprise video solutions to SharePoint users."
Embedded Speech Search
Speech Search, which is unique to Qumu's enterprise video platform, is a revolutionary way to organize and ingest information from videos. In its embedded form within SharePoint and Qumu's Video Control Center 7.0, users are able to search for words and phrases within individual videos and jump directly to the incidences where those words are spoken. This reduces time to knowledge and accelerates the way employees do business with video. Speech Search makes searching videos faster and more accurate than searching transcribed video text.
The Qumu Video App for SharePoint 2013 with extended Speech Search capabilities available immediately for order.
- Learn more about Qumu's SharePoint integration and Speech Search functionality.
- Visit Qumu at the Microsoft SharePoint 2014 Conference from March 3-6 at booth 1124.
About Qumu Corporation
Qumu Corporation (NASDAQ: QUMU) provides the tools businesses need to create, manage, secure, distribute and measure the success of their videos. Qumu's innovative solutions release the power in video to engage and empower employees, partners and clients. Qumu helps thousands of organizations around the world realize the greatest possible value from video and other rich content they create and publish.

American Airlines To Keep Old Logo In Merger
American Airlines employees voted to keep the airline's one-year-old logo. The Texas-based carrier merged with Tempe based U.S. Airways last year.
The 60,000 employees were given two choices, the new design featuring red, white and blue horizontal stripes on the planes' tails or a return to the old logo, the letters "AA" below an eagle silhouette. 52 percent voted for the new design.
The company plans to repaint more than 1,100 American, US Airways and US Airways Express planes.
Voting on the tail design is one of several symbolic moves CEO Doug Parker has made to reach out to employees, who clashed with American's previous management. He has removed the parking spots that had been reserved for executives at the airline's Fort Worth headquarters.
Other major challenges include combining the computer systems and workforces of American and US Airways.

Hamburg, January 8th 2014 - The German IT security specialist gateprotect is now offering an upgrade for its endpoint solution. "Complete Security - Mobile Protection" provides even better protection against evolving threats, malware and malicious applications on mobile devices. New features include unified management access for controlling both mobile devices and PCs; an application level password and lockout function; a SecureWeb browsing functionality for Android browsers and Google Chrome; as well as more targeted user group management functionality.
A recent survey on mobile security shows: 83 percent of the interviewed decision-makers believe that mobile devices create a high security risk within the corporate environment.* gateprotect firmly believes that the Security threat through mobile devices will continue to become more prevalent which is why we continue to offer our customers with solutions to provide Complete Security.
"Cybercriminals are increasingly targeting employees to gain access to a company's intellectual property", says gateprotect CEO Dr. Peter Smeets. "Because it is common for there to be a lot of confidential corporate data stored on the mobile devices of Executives, businesses must supplement their security parameters with a coherent but simple BYOD protection strategy."
Unified Management for IT Administrators
gateprotect "Complete Security - Mobile Protection" is particularly easy to operate. Both the mobile devices and the PCs connected to the network may be administered quickly via one single interface.
IT administrators have the possibility to create policies that can be updated and duplicated within the console, and create user groups to facilitate the management of end users. Administrators can easily drag-and-drop users into a group, and user devices will automatically pick up the policies associated with that group.
Employees will only be able to change those settings on their mobile devices that are in line with the company policy. If the device password, lock screen timeout, or device administrator access do not meet policy requirements, alerts are sent directly to the console.
The SecureWeb™ browsing feature has been expanded as well to support Google Chrome in addition to the stock Android browser. In addition, the upgrade of "Complete Security - Mobile Protection" includes an enhanced device scanning engine for Android that detects threats in real time and speeds up scans.
Key features of Complete Security - Mobile Protection at a glance:
Device and group level policies for Android and iOS devices
Alerts sent up to management console for devices out of policy
Cloud scanning enhancements powered by Webroot® Intelligence Network™ (WIN™) services
User group management
Single point of control for mobile devices and PCs
New application level password and lockout features
SecureWeb browsing functionality for stock Android browser and Google Chrome
Increased efficacy with cloud-powered scanning
Lower CPU, memory, bandwidth, and battery utilization

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

Listen up children: Cheating on your homework or cribbing notes from another student is bad, but not as bad as sharing a music track with a friend, or otherwise depriving the content-industry of its well-earned profits.
That's one of the messages in a new-school curriculum being developed with the Motion Picture Association of America, the Recording Industry Association of America and the nation's top ISPs, in a pilot project to be tested in California elementary schools later this year.
A near-final draft of the curriculum, obtained by WIRED, shows that it comes in different flavors for every grade from kindergarten through sixth, to keep pace with your developing child's ability to understand that copying is theft, period.
"This thinly disguised corporate propaganda is inaccurate and inappropriate," says Mitch Stoltz, an intellectual property attorney with the Electronic Frontier Foundation, who reviewed the material at WIRED's request.
"It suggests, falsely, that ideas are property and that building on others' ideas always requires permission," Stoltz says. "The overriding message of this curriculum is that students' time should be consumed not in creating but in worrying about their impact on corporate profits."

Colombia: Court backs referendum on peace deal with FARC
"There is a green light for us, the Colombian people, to approve the peace deal with our votes," President Juan Manuel Santos said.
The top court held more than eight hours of deliberations before giving its go-ahead to a government bill on the plebiscite, which has already been approved by Congress.
The Colombian government and the Marxist Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) are in the final phase of four years of talks that it is hoped will result in a peace deal putting to an end a half-a-century of conflict.
The rebels last month signed a ceasefire and disarmament deal with the government, with the aim of becoming a political party.
The government said it hoped to move on to a full peace deal within weeks.
Alejo Vargas, an analyst at the National University's Center for Reflection and Monitoring of the Peace Dialogues, has said government supporters of the peace deal are in the majority. In a referendum, he estimated, "up to 70 percent would vote 'Yes.'"
Grenade blast kills 2 Israeli soldiers
The incident occurred at Mount Hermon near the demarcation line with Syria. Details on how the Israeli grenade went off were being investigated.
The two soldiers killed were identified as Staff Sergeant Hussam Tafesh, a 24-year-old Druze, and Sergeant Shlomo Rindenow, 20 and originally from the United States.
Israeli media reported that one of the soldiers exited an army vehicle holding the grenade and approached another soldier standing outside the outpost when it exploded.
Israel seized 1,200 square kilometres (460 square miles) of the Golan Heights from Syria in the Six-Day War of 1967 and later annexed it in a move never recognised by the international community.
Spain under bombs: 'testing ground' for WWII
It was May 25, 1938. Bertran, then just 15, was heading to the countryside outside Benasal, a town of around 1,000 residents in the eastern province of Castellon where a mountain range separates Spain's Mediterranean coast from its central plains.
"Suddenly three planes flew by, not very high. They turned towards the town and nosedived," Bertran, now 93, recalls as he sits in a rustic wooden chair in the living room of his home.
"They lined up and dropped their bombs. They fell very quickly, making a loud whistling sound. Within seconds you could only see dust."
He stops talking and thinks for a moment before adding in a broken voice: "When I returned to the town, everything was destroyed."
Photographs from the time show entire blocks of Benasal reduced to rubble, the dome and roof of the baroque church blown open.
At least 13 people were killed, victims of a new war tactic: air bombardments.
- 'Absolute panic' -
Spain's 1936-39 civil war pitted an elected leftist government against right-wing forces that rose up under General Francisco Franco, who went on to win and presided over a nearly 40-year dictatorship.
It was the first war where "aviation played a crucial role", said Barcelona University historian Joan Villarroya.
Planes bombed systematically the battlefront as well as the civilian population to "cause terror and break morale", he said.
Hospitals, schools, theatres, markets and even churches became military targets.
Historians estimate that at least 10,000 people were killed across the country in the air raids during the 1936-39 war.
The vast majority of the dead were opponents of Franco's forces, who were backed by Hitler's Germany and Mussolini's Italy.
The soldiers loyal to the Socialist-led government known as Republicans received help from the Soviet Union, but it was much more limited.
In November 1936 Madrid became the first European capital to be bombed by planes.
The following year the town of Guernica in the northern Basque region was wiped out by aircraft from Hitler's "Condor Legion" sent to Spain to support Franco, an atrocity immortalised in Picasso's haunting anti-war masterpiece named after the town.
At the same time Italian aircraft based in Mallorca bombed Spain's Mediterranean coast, especially Barcelona where 2,500 people were killed.
Spain was for them "a test ground for World War Two," said history professor Josep Sanchez Cervello of Tarragona's Rovira i Virgili University.
"They wanted to see what would be the effect of bombs on the civilian population. It was absolute panic."
- Stuka experiment -
Benasal suffered one of these experiments, the testing of the Junker-87, or Stuka, a German dive bomber that served the Axis forces in World War Two.
For decades no one explained why Benasal was targeted. It was an unimportant town, without troops and 30 kilometres (20 miles) from the nearest front.
But in 2011 Oscar Vives, a university professor who lives in Benasal, found a German military report titled "Images of the Effects of 500 kilogramme bombs".
The report proved that Benasal and three other nearby towns were used to test the dive bombers.
At leat 40 people died "because of an experiment, of weapons testing," said Vives.
Time has not erased the memories.
Now aged 90, Rosa Soligo says she was in bed when the bombs landed near her house.
She recalls hearing her mother scream and "a loud noise" as part of the building came crashing down.
"When they pulled us out of the rubble our bodies were covered in blood because of the injuries but fortunately they were not very serious," she said.
The German dive bombers returned three days later but there were no longer any inhabitants left in Benasal. Everyone had fled.
- 'Punished by history' -
"We lived in caves for days, for fear that they would return. We suffered a lot... a lot," Soligo said.
The effects of the air bombings can be seen still in the town of Corbera de Ebro in the northeastern region of Catalunya near the Ebro River, the site of the bloodiest battle of the war which paved the way for victory by Franco's forces.
Corbera was "completely levelled" by the insurgents, said professor Sanchez Cervello.
The town was engulfed in fire and smoke for weeks, and was called "the eternal flame", said local historian and high school teacher Joan Antonio Montana who provides tours of the ruins of Corbera.
Only the bell tower and facade of the town's baroque church survived.
After the war the surviving residents moved down the hill and rebuilt their town. The original town was left in rubble as a memorial to a "town punished by history".
UN-backed Yemen peace talks resume in Kuwait
Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed said the negotiations, back on after a 15-day suspension, would last for two weeks and warned that they may be Yemen's last chance for peace.
"It's time for decisive decisions that will prove your true intentions and national responsibilities to Yemenis," he told a meeting of the two delegations late Saturday.
The envoy said the discussions between Yemen's Huthi rebels and the government of President Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi would focus on strengthening a ceasefire that came into effect on April 11 but has been repeatedly violated.
They would also deal with "forming the military committees that will supervise the withdrawal and handover of weapons... and opening safe passages for humanitarian aid," he said.
Ould Cheikh Ahmed said that over the past two weeks he had held intensive talks in Sanaa, Riyadh and Muscat and met with many dignitaries who declared their support for a final settlement.
"I hope that you will seize this opportunity which could be the last to win the trust of Yemeni people," the UN envoy added.
- Boycott threat -
The talks resumed after Ould Cheikh Ahmed convinced the Yemen government to send its delegation to Kuwait after threatening to pull out of the peace talks which began on April 21.
Earlier in the day, Yemen Foreign Minister Abdulmalek al-Mikhlafi said the government had obtained a "written response to our demands sufficient for the political leadership to decide (on) sending the delegation back to Kuwait".
A well-defined timetable has been agreed that is limited to "withdrawal, handover of arms, return of state institutions, release of prisoners and lifting siege on cities" by the Iran-backed Huthi rebels and their allies, Mikhlafi said.
The deal was struck after two days of talks with Ould Cheikh Ahmed in Riyadh, he said.
It was also agreed that the talks' two-week duration will not be extended and no other issues will be debated, he added.
The rebel delegation of Huthis and representatives of former president Ali Abdullah Saleh's General People's Congress party arrived in Kuwait on Friday.
More than two months of negotiations between President Hadi's Saudi-backed government and the rebels have failed to make any headway.
The government is calling for implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 2216 which requires the rebels and their allies to withdraw from areas they have occupied since 2014, including the capital Sanaa, and hand over heavy weapons.
Hadi had previously warned that his government would boycott the talks if the UN envoy insisted on a roadmap stipulating a unity government that included the insurgents.
His government wants to re-establish its authority across the entire country, much of which is rebel-controlled, and to restart a political transition interrupted when the Huthis seized Sanaa.
More than 6,400 people have been killed in Yemen since a Saudi-led coalition intervened in support of Hadi's government in March last year.
Another 2.8 million people have been displaced and more than 80 percent of the population urgently needs humanitarian aid, according to UN figures.

Lady GaGa to Release 'Born This Way' in May and New Single in Feb
Lady GaGa celebrated New Year by announcing release dates for her new album "Born This Way" and its lead single. "THE SONG 2 13 11 THE RECORD 5 23 11," she posted on Twitter along with a picture of her stripping down from the waist down and wearing a jacket with the album title emblazoned on the back.
Prior to the announcement, she tweeted her Little Monsters some lyrics from the record, "I'm beautiful in my way, 'cause God makes no mistakes, I'm on the right track baby, I was Born This Way. Don't hide yourself in regret, just love yourself and you're set. I'm on the right track baby, I was Born This Way."
GaGa previously told BBC that "lyrically this album is more poetic." She gushed, "It's really written by the fans, they really wrote it for me because every night they're funneling so much into me. So I wrote it for them. Born This Way is all about my little monsters and me, mother monster."
Teasing about the sound, she said "[It's] a marriage of electronic music with major, epic, dare I even say, metal or rock and roll, pop, anthemic style melodies with really sledge-hammering dance beats." She explained more, "It's kind of like the post-operative stage of the album. I've already done the full heart surgery. I'm just sewing myself back up again."
Beside having a new album on the way, Lady GaGa will also roll out a "Gnomeo and Juliet" soundtrack she worked with Elton John. The song will be made available for purchase in a CD package of the movie theme songs compilation on February 8.

The new home of
Holiday cottages in Wales offer a fantastic mix of beautiful landscapes and vibrant cities. One day you could be enjoying the unrivalled tranquillity and expansive views of Snowdonia, and the next you could be joining the throng at Cardiff's majestic Millennium Stadium. To borrow a well-worn phrase, Wales truly is a destination with something for everyone. The only problem with so much choice is finding the right thing for you and your fellow holidaymakers to enjoy, so we're going to make a few recommendations for an unforgettable holiday in Wales.
Wales really is a country of highlights, with an incredible array of fantastic attractions, both natural and man-made. One of the best ways to get your bearings is to head upwards, so we're going to recommend a trip to Snowdonia National Park first. If you'd like a bird's eye view of your stunning surroundings there really is no place like it. The circular Precipice Walk offers a slightly challenging two-hour trek but the pay off is expansive views as far as the eye can see. Mount Snowdon is easily accessible thanks to a train ride, or a climb for more intrepid visitors. However you choose to reach it, the views from the surrounding landscape are breathtaking. Less taxing, but no less beautiful, is the Pembrokeshire Coast. The UK's only truly coastal national park offers stunning limestone cliffs, soft golden sands and cool blue waters as far as the eye can see. Wales' industrial heritage is celebrated at the Llechwedd Slate Caverns. One of the country's premier tourist attractions, it offers both a fascinating insight into the lives of the miners and a truly unique landscape to explore and admire. If you fancy a more vibrant holiday experience then there are few better locations than Cardiff. Like Wales itself, the capital city offers a wonderful celebration of history and a wealth of contemporary attractions, so it's perhaps unsurprising to find out that it's also one of the most popular destinations for those with Welsh holiday cottages.
A beautifully varied landscape makes Welsh cottages perennially popular with outdoor enthusiasts and those who fancy enjoying the fresh air and stunning spectacle of some of the UK's most celebrated natural locations. Hikers, climbers, cyclists and boaters will all find much to enjoy in the 'Land of Song'. Pet owners will be equally satisfied with their choice of holiday destination and there are plenty of places to stretch the legs and give the dog a welcome run-around. If you fancy a more cosmopolitan experience then you'll find more than enough cities offering great shopping opportunities, vibrant nightlife and a packed calendar of cultural events.
If you're ready to begin your exploration, take a look at our featured Wales holiday cottages.

On-site facilities including swimming pool
These beautiful cottages have been tastefully renovated from a traditional Welsh barn and are set in the heart of Pembrokeshire alongside the Llys-y-Fran Country Park and reservoir. There are plenty of facilities available for guests free of charge, including croquet and badminton, a heated covered swimming pool, all-weather tennis court and a children's play garden. You can also enjoy the country park which is less than a minute's walk and has a 200-acre reservoir and an impressive 100ft dam, the largest game fishing in west Wales. This is a beautiful woodland setting with a delightful nature trail for both walkers and cyclists, and an 8-mile perimeter trail providing fine views and a variety of wildlife including badgers, foxes and otters. The broadleaf woodland provides a breeding site for sparrowhawk, buzzard and woodpecker, whilst the lake attracts uncommon water bird species such as little gull and black tern. Set in the heart of Pembrokeshire, giving access to beaches, national park, the historic Preseli Mountains and the worlds famous Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and Coastal Path. Within a short drive is Oakwood Theme Park. A holiday in Pembrokeshire would not be complete without a visit to the picturesque harbour and the golden beaches at Tenby or the busy resort of Saundersfoot, a complete contrast from the more secluded parts perhaps, but always popular with children. Also within a short drive are Manor House Wildlife Park, Caldey Island, with its cistercian monastery and countless historic castles such as Carew, and Pembroke. It is an ideal location for a perfect family holiday as a getaway or for trying some of the outdoor pursuits and entertainment. Pembrokeshire is famous for its excellent restaurants and pubs. In the immediate vicinity there is the country park restaurant and two pubs serving food in the village of Clarbeston Road (3 miles). Golf and horse riding are within 5 miles.

Shared indoor swimming pool
These purpose-built holiday cottages (refs 24574, 27255 and 27257) have been constructed or converted from the original farmhouse buildings and an old Welsh longhouse. Welsh craftsmanship at its best - only the finest local tradesmen and materials have been used for the conversion of these buildings. They are situated in an elevated position on the edge of Broadlay near Ferryside on the old pilgrim road to St David's Cathedral a half mile from the Three Rivers Hotel and Spa. Guests are welcome to use all the facilities at the hotel such as the swimming pool. There is generous amenity space and a country adventure play area for small accompanied children. The complex is on the local bus route which connects to Carmarthen via the hotel and Ferryside railway station. In the opposite direction, Kidwelly and Swansea are en route. Ferryside is uncommercialised, peaceful and quiet; the ideal getaway for a perfect weekend (or longer) break. It is also, due to its proximity to Carmarthen, Llanelli and other centres, an ideal corporate meeting place. Kidwelly, with its Norman castle, industrial heritage museum, Pembrey Country Park and Motorsport Centre, within approximately 10 minutes' travelling time. The National Botanical Gardens, Laugharne (famous for Dylan Thomas' Boathouse) and many Pembrokeshire attractions are about half an hour's drive. There are many places to visit including Dylan Thomas' cottage, where he spent the last years of his life. The Millennium Coastal Cycle Path, part of the national cycle path network, meanders through approximately 20 miles of local coastline, passing through local areas of interest. Places to visit include Kidwelly Castle, the Penclawydd Wildfowl Centre, and the Loughor Estuary with views of the Mumbles Peninsula south of Swansea. Shop, pub and restaurant ½ mile.

I never write reviews but thought the service at Velo warranted a mention. Took my bike in for a pre-race service. Customer service was great, bike was done in no time and the actual work was great. The bike Indexes like butter better even than it did when I first got it and much better than far more expensive services I've had from thier competitors. I'll be taking my bike here from now on!

Live from the Superdome
D'Arcy Maine (7:32 PM)
Greetings from the Superdome in New Orleans! It's the perfect storm tonight. Literally and figuratively. The thunder is booming overhead and we have two of college basketball's most storied programs ready to play for the national title. So many storylines tonight... Veterans vs. One-and-dones, Self vs. Calipari Round 2, Good vs. Evil... I'll stop here.
Andrew Syracuse NY [via mobile]
Kentucky will dominate the tempo and will win but let's go Jayhawks!!!!!!!!
D'Arcy Maine (7:32 PM)
Andrew, I think you just voiced the view of everyone in America who isn't a Kentucky or Kansas fan.
Lawrence [via mobile]
Who do you have picked to win tonight and by how much?
D'Arcy Maine (7:35 PM)
I hope your name is Lawrence and that's not your location because if not, I don't think you'll like this answer. I think Kentucky wins this one by 12. The Jayhawks gave the Wildcats a tough game in November at MSG but UK came alive in the second and dominated, opening the half on an 11-point run. KU was never able to recover. Considering this Kentucky team has now played together for a full season, they are all the more dangerous. Just my take anyway.
Bill [via mobile]
Any celebs in the house?
D'Arcy Maine (7:38 PM)
I'm pretty sure it would violate celebrity code to get to an event almost two hours before tip-off. But I'm sure there will be later though, Bill. I'll keep you posted. We know Ashley Judd will be here.
D'Arcy Maine (7:39 PM)
Random thought: How does Ashley Judd's fandom stack up with other celebrity fans? Has to be right up there. Jack Nicholson level?
Rick [via mobile]
How many points will Thomas Robinson score?
D'Arcy Maine (7:43 PM)
Kansas fans have to hope T-Rob has a huge game tonight. That's the team's best chance of pulling off this upset. He had 11 points and 12 rebounds during the November meeting. I think he'll need more than that in terms of scoring production. I'm guessing he'll be in the 18-20 range.
Val [via mobile]
Who will the crowd be rooting 4
D'Arcy Maine (7:45 PM)
Based on my time spent in the Quarter over the last few days, it seems that this will be a Kentucky crowd with maybe a 65-35 divide. Would imagine most of the crowd here without a team in the fight will go KU however. This is going to be a very LOUD crowd tonight. I couldn't even hear the PA announcer on Saturday during the first game.
Rick [via mobile]
Which team has more history in your opinion
D'Arcy Maine (7:47 PM)
Is that a trick question, Rick? Both of these schools have such tremendous basketball histories it's almost impossible to pick. They are the two winningest programs in college hoops history (Kentucky with 2,089 and Kansas with 2,070). Basketball diehards really couldn't get a better matchup from a historical standpoint.
Albany NY, John [via mobile]
Is it the same superdome where the Saints play?
D'Arcy Maine (7:49 PM)
That's the one! Pretty amazing to see a football stadium transformed into a basketball arena. Saturday's attendance of 70K+ was the second-biggest crowd of all time for a basketball game.

MacPherson KS [via mobile]
Is Jeff Withey going to be able to block UK's big men?
D'Arcy Maine (7:55 PM)
He's going to have to try, MacPherson. Withey is averaging 3.6 BPG on the season and actually had 4 in their first meeting of the season. Even more surprising to many is that Withey actually has a better block rate than Anthony Davis. He's had seven blocks in a game TWICE in this tournament. I think he actually is a major X factor in this game and could give Davis the hardest time of any opponent he's faced all year. Could be a great matchup.
Boston [via mobile]
Do you see any OT in our future
D'Arcy Maine (7:56 PM)
No. Although it would be fitting to see Calipari and Self battle in OT again. Not sure if Cal would agree. Hope his guys have been practicing their free throw shooting...
Chanslor (Kentucky) [via mobile]
How big is Darius Miller's senior leadership on this team?
D'Arcy Maine (7:59 PM)
Great question, Chanslor. As talented and dominant as UK's freshmen are, senior leadership can't be valued numerically. To have someone out there with experience is a huge boost for the team and I'm sure he's been the vocal leader all weekend and season. Saw someone call him the glue that held the team together and I think that really sums his role up.

Davis fix the caterpillar on his forehead?
D'Arcy Maine (8:01 PM)
Don't you worry, the Brow is still there in full force. Several of the UK students are also sporting mock unibrows in support. I just hope someone buys him some tweezers before the Draft.
will ny [via mobile]
Big fan d'arcy. Enjoy your work. My ? Is who do you see winning most outstanding player?
D'Arcy Maine (8:03 PM)
Thanks Will! The obvious answer to this of course Davis, the newly-crowned Naismith Player of the Year. I mean if you scream, 'this is MY stage!' during a Final Four game, you've set the bar kind of high...
Tommy, Virginia [via mobile]
With everyone talking about the defensive player of the year in Anthony Davis we cannot forget about MKG, he is the derrell revis of NCAA basketball, he has the length, strength, and ability to shut down anyone at any position, while also possibly scoring 20.
D'Arcy Maine (8:06 PM)
Hmmm, 'Kidd-Gilchrist Island' doesn't quite have the same ring to it but I like what you're saying, Tommy. He struggled for most of the game on Saturday and got in early foul trouble that limited him to just 23 minutes of action and was generally ineffective until the final stretch. However, he's been invaluable all season and could make a huge difference tonight. He just needs to stay out of foul trouble early. He's not very helpful from the bench.
Nick [via mobile]
Do you think the officials will be fair? If not whose side do you think they will be on?
D'Arcy Maine (8:07 PM)
All I'm hoping is that we don't have to hear the phrase 'lane violation' tonight.
Catman ky [via mobile]
What was the attendance record for the championship game? Could tonights be bigger?
D'Arcy Maine (8:12 PM)
Good question, Catman. Happy to have you back in the chat tonight. I had to look this one up. Just want to point out the attendance for the first ever title game was 3K. How times have changed. I believe the current record is from last year at Reliant Stadium in Houston at 75,421. I don't believe there is the capacity to break that record tonight. Although it would happen if possible. There are thousands of ticket-less UK fans wandering Bourbon Street as I write this.
dillon erie pa [via mobile]
d'arcy! its dillon, ya know, the 14 year old sports guru, anyway, kentucky-kansas! what a sensational or as dicky v would say "its a diaper dandy BABY!!!!" Im taking kansas, just kidding, kentucky by 12, 67-55, davis wins mvp, has 21 points, 15 rebounds, 2 assists (amazing i know, two, not 1 assists) and 8 blocks, who do u got!
D'Arcy Maine (8:13 PM)
Mark that down everybody. Dillon is my No. 1 14-year-old sports analyst in the country.
D'Arcy Maine (8:14 PM)
Both teams are warming up on the court. You could cut the nervous energy in the air with a knife. Although I do not recommend doing so.
mowilly32 [via mobile]
pretty sure there is a team in the pac12 with 11 championships both teams in tonights game have 9 total.dont you think that makes them the kings and everyone else princes and jesters?
D'Arcy Maine (8:18 PM)
Ben Howland is doing a really great job maintaining that tradition, huh? But you bring up a great point, Mo. When talking about the most storied college hoops programs, you can never omit UCLA. But while the Bruins have the titles, these two programs have been around since the earliest days of organized ball and are 1 and 2 on the wins list. I think there's a select group of programs that deserve to be on the bluebloods list - Kentucky, Kansas, UCLA, UNC, Duke and Indiana.
Gavin in Kansas City [via mobile]
I believe these are going to be different teams than we saw in November. The Hype & Pressure is on UK, If Taylor can surprise and rain three's game on.
D'Arcy Maine (8:21 PM)
No doubt about it, Gavin. These teams are definitely both better than they were in November. I was lucky enough to be at the game and am excited to have the opportunity to witness Round 2 firsthand. While both squads have matured, come together, fine-tuned various aspects of their games, etc. I just believe Kentucky has made more strides as that was just their second game together. They were impressive then and they quite frankly are almost scary now in terms of how good they are. We'll see. Kansas has overcome every obstacle thrown their way in this tournament. Maybe they will tonight as well.
Tucker (Sacramento CA) [via mobile]
Assuming UK wins tonight, how many days later will it have to vacate its crown? With Calipari's history, this is a "when" not "if" question.
D'Arcy Maine (8:23 PM)
I just can't wait to tell my grandkids someday that I witnessed the blank spot in the NCAA record book for the 2012 National Champion in person. They were easily the best team ever that never counted.
Nathan (TN) [via mobile]
The only thin hairier than Anthony Davis's unibrow is... No, Chewbaca isn't that hairy.
D'Arcy Maine (8:25 PM)
I'm honestly surprised at the lack of unibrow comments tonight. If that's not an indication of how good Davis' game is, I don't know what is.
Matt [via mobile]
How much do you think Terrence Jones will be a factor?
D'Arcy Maine (8:29 PM)
Would have to think he'll do more today than he did on Saturday vs. Louisville (6 points). UK has enough weapons that a player can afford to have a down night but Jones has been a key reason for the team's success so one would think he would show up tonight ready to play and make a difference.
moley il [via mobile]
my boss telled me to go to this game but i dont know how to get to the game. my boss say that its championship game and i need to watch it.
D'Arcy Maine (8:30 PM)
Your boss is right. You need to watch this game. At the very least, it has to be more entertaining than the last National Championship game that was in this building. I might cheer every time either team crosses the halfcourt line to show my appreciation.
Noah (KENTUCKY) [via mobile]
Any thoughts on the crazy celebrations in Lexington after the final four win? And any idea what will happen if KY wins tonight?
D'Arcy Maine (8:31 PM)
I'm concerned for the safety of all couches in the greater Lexington area tonight. Hide your kids, hide your couches!
Josh in Denver [via mobile]
Hope Kentucky brings there A game like they did in the sec championship game!!!!!
D'Arcy Maine (8:32 PM)
Womp. Womp.
Buzz (MO) [via mobile]
HUGE KU fan here and I know this will be a tough matchup and all but 12 points? Seems a little steep. KU has the toughness you can't teach. It will easily be single digits either way.
D'Arcy Maine (8:33 PM)
I hope you're right, Buzz. I think everyone wants a close game. I could see KU hanging in but letting it slip away in the final minutes.
Buzz (MO) [via mobile]
It looks like Tom Selleck put his moustache on Anthony Davis' forehead
D'Arcy Maine (8:34 PM)
Congrats Buzz. You just made Tom Selleck for the first time in years.
D'Arcy Maine (8:36 PM)
That does it for me, gang. I'll be blogging during the game and doing another chat immediately after it ends. Hope you'll join me in either of those locations. But even if you don't and just want to watch without my constant Calipari digs, thanks for joining me here and I hope you enjoy the game!
