Não sei se avisei isso, provavelmente sim, mas meu curta ''Ar perturbador'' (Disturbing air) ganhou o prêmio de melhor filme experimental nesse festival. Para mim é sempre uma grande honra participar desses festivais, especialmente porque dessa vez foi o primeiro prêmio que ganhei com meu trabalho...
I don't know if I said that before, probably yes, but my short ''Disturbing air'' (Ar perturbador) won the best experimental film award on that festival. It's always a great honor to be a part of these festivals, specially because this is the first time I won an award with my work...

O Que Comer no Café da Manhã para Emagrecer?
Especialistas nas áreas de nutrição e dieta disseram durante anos que o café da manhã era algo muito importante de ter em seu dia a dia, mas depois que um estudo realizado pela Universidade do Alabama, em Birmingham (UAB), Estados Unidos, mostrou que pessoas acima do peso que se alimentavam pela manhã não eram mais propensas a perder peso do que aquelas que não tomavam o seu café da manhã, muitos passaram a se perguntar se realmente deveriam se preocupar com esta refeição.
Suzy Weems, PhD, nutricionista e professora de ciências da família e do consumidor da Universidade Baylor em Waxo, Texas, Estados Unidos disse: “Sim, você deve tomar café da manhã”. Mas isso não significa que deve comer um saco de pão com manteiga e um café cheio de açúcar ou um copo de leite com muito achocolatado.
O estudo realizado pela UAB não analisou o que as pessoas estavam comendo nesta refeição, apenas se comiam ou não, e é por isso que a especialista afirma que não é apenas o fato de comer pela manhã que irá te ajudar, “a comida que você escolhe importa.”
Outros estudos comprovaram que o café da manhã ajuda na perda de peso. Na verdade, mais de 75% das pessoas que perdem mais de 10 kg e mantêm o peso fazem uma refeição pela manhã todos os dias. Portanto, como saber o que comer no café da manhã para emagrecer? É o que vamos descobrir agora.
É essencial tomar café da manhã para perder peso
Eric Rimm, professor de epidemiologia e nutrição na conceituada Universidade de Harvard, Estados Unidos, diz que se você quer perder peso ou manter o peso adequado, deve tomar um café da manhã saudável.
O café da manhã deve conter entre 25% e 30% da média de calorias ingeridas diariamente, e isso tem sido demonstrado em vários estudos que são realizados para ajudar as pessoas a perderem peso e para manter os quilos perdidos sem que sofram com o conhecido “efeito sanfona” – engorda, emagrece, engorda, emagrece.
Se você deseja saber o que comer no café da manhã para emagrecer, saiba que não há um alimento único para escolher. É importante experimentar alimentos diferentes e ver quais funcionam melhor para o seu corpo e claro, para o seu paladar.
“Comece a ler os rótulos dos alimentos quando for comprá-los”, disse Rimm, que sugere alimentos como ovos para que você consuma proteína, aveia e pão integral, e claro, deixar de lado os alimentos açucarados e carnes processadas como presunto, bacon, etc.
“É preciso que faça um esforço, com mudanças feitas lentamente em sua dieta”, disse Rimm. “As pessoas precisam perceber que algumas coisas não funcionam. Falhar faz parte no processo da perda de peso e leva tempo. Existem muitas opções (de dieta) de sucesso por aí, mas nenhuma opção funciona para todos.”
Atenção aos alimentos light e diet
O professor de Harvard também ressalta que as palavras “sem açúcar” podem significar muitas coisas, como por exemplo a adição de adoçantes artificiais. “Temos provas que sugerem que a comida ‘sem açúcar’ realmente desencadeia em seu corpo a mesma resposta que o açúcar”.
Ele continua afirmando: “Em alguns casos, se você está consumindo um alimento sem açúcar, a doçura ainda pode acionar o seu corpo para absorver mais e armazenar outras calorias de carboidratos, proteínas e gorduras da refeição”.
O especialista recomenda alimentos que não contenham açúcar nem adoçante artificial, mas diz que uma pequena quantidade de mel pode ser uma boa alternativa para adoçar o seu café o chá.
O café da manhã e a perda de peso
Quando você pula o café da manhã, o açúcar no sangue cai ainda mais, e como resultado, você fica com fome e tem menos energia. Isso te prepara para comer impulsivamente durante o seu lanche da manhã, optando muitas vezes por doces com alto teor de gordura, ou para comer porções maiores no almoço e jantar.
Um estudo de 2005 encontrou evidências de que as pessoas que pulam essa refeição matinal compensam no final do dia com carboidratos e gorduras mais refinadas, consumindo menos frutas e vegetais, porém, quando você toma o café da manhã, seu corpo se sente nutrido e satisfeito, diminuindo a vontade de comer demais durante o resto do dia.
Ter esta refeição todos os dias pode reduzir o risco de obesidade e resistência à insulina, que é um sinal precoce de desenvolvimento de diabetes, em 35% a 50%, de acordo com um estudo apresentado em uma conferência da American Heart Association (Associação Americana do Coração) em 2003.
Tire um tempo para o café da manhã
Ter tempo para fazer as coisas com calma é algo que está cada vez mais difícil na nossa sociedade onde “tempo é dinheiro”, mas para a sua saúde, vale a pena reservar um momento para poder ter a refeição mais importante do dia.
Escolha alimentos de três ou mais grupos para ter um bom café da manhã. Alimentos com proteínas, como ovos, manteiga de amendoim ou iogurte, demoram mais para serem digeridos e proporcionam energia e saciedade por mais tempo.
O que comer no café da manhã para emagrecer – A melhor opção
São infinitas as opções de alimentos para se comer no café da manhã, porém, o topo da lista para quem busca o que comer no café da manhã para emagrecer e melhorar a saúde fica para os cereais integrais.
Um estudo realizado para a saúde da mulher em Iowa, Estados Unidos – The Iowa Women’s Health Study – em 2007 descobriu que as mulheres que comiam grãos integrais pelo menos duas vezes por dia tinham um risco 30% menor de morrer devido a uma condição relacionada à inflamação em um período de 17 anos em relação àquelas que raramente ou nunca comiam grãos integrais.
Opte por cereais que listem grãos integrais ou aveia como ingrediente principal e que contenham pelo menos 2 gramas de fibra dietética por porção. Aveia, seja ela em flocos ou farelo, contém pelo menos 7 gramas de fibra por porção, ou cerca de 25% da dose diária recomendada.
Outras opções
Veja algumas opções fáceis e rápidas para você que procura o que comer no café da manhã para emagrecer. Encontre a que melhor encaixe no seu dia a dia e paladar e aproveite!
Leite, cereais integrais e um pedaço de fruta;
Aveia instantânea com iogurte e morangos;
Um punhado de amêndoas ou nozes, uma banana e um copo de leite ou café com leite;
Granola integral com frutas e iogurte;
Manteiga de amendoim espalhada em uma torrada de trigo integral ou em um pequeno pão integral;
Ovos cozidos ou mexidos com uma torrada ou pão integral e um copo de suco;
Vitamina de frutas feito com iogurte natural ou kefir.
As barras de cereais tornaram-se muito populares, e embora sejam práticas, convenientes e capazes de satisfazer a sua fome, nunca se esqueça de ler o rótulo de cada uma delas, pois elas podem conter uma grande variedade de vitaminas e outros nutrientes; porém, algumas podem ter pouca fibra e estarem carregadas com muitas calorias, tanto quanto uma barra de chocolate.
Se você é uma pessoa que sempre “pula” o café da manhã, tente começar no próximo final de semana quando tiver mais tempo, e em seguida, expanda a sua rotina para os outros dias da semana. Você poderá se surpreender em como a sua manhã ficará mais gostosa, como renderá mais e o quanto irá comer mais saudável ao longo do dia.

Hyperallergic: Calling Detroit’s 1967 Civil Unrest a “Rebellion,” a Museum Takes a Strong Stand
Say It Loud at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History, installation view (all photos by the author for Hyperallergic)
DETROIT — It’s been 50 years since a weeklong mass civil uprising took place in Detroit, an event that is sometimes seen as an isolated riot, but in fact was an expression of decades of racial inequity. The events of the summer of 1967 have been one of the defining incidents connected with the city. Buildings burned, businesses were looted, and eventually the National Guard was called in to control the populace. What failed to happen then, and largely in the following decades, was any sort of detailed or uncomfortable conversations about the long-term social and economic factors that set the scene for the summer of 1967 — issues that were in the making for 50 years or more prior to the uprising, as an African-American labor force was lured to a white population center that was unprepared to offer the kind of equity and social progress promised by the Great Migration.
As cultural institutions all across the city have launched and hosted commemorative events, each has developed their own take on Detroit’s history, and made decisions about which voices to amplify. The Detroit Institute of Arts put together Art of Rebellion: Black Art of the Civil Rights Movement, a concentrated survey of some of the most influential African-American artist collectives of the 1960s, linking art of the Civil Rights Movement in Detroit to that across the country. The Detroit Historical Society launched Detroit 67: Looking Back to Move Forward, an ambitious, multi-year documentation effort, collecting 500 stories from those who were in Detroit when it was under siege (July 23–August 1, 1967). This ongoing work has created the most comprehensive archive on the subject, and directly informed the Detroit Historical Museum’s interactive exhibition, Detroit 67: Perspectives, that brackets the tempestuous week with an entire century of historical context in the form of documents, artifacts, and oral histories.
Tony oko, “Martin Luther King” (year unlisted), mixed media on canvas
Also among these institutions is the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History. In mounting its exhibition, the first step it took was to make a conscious decision about terminology.
“We started this project over a year ago,” said Assistant Curator Erin Falker, in an interview with Hyperallergic, “and it started with the idea of taking back the term ‘riot’ and talking about it in a new way. We felt like the narrative that what happened in ’67 as a riot has been the thing that people know, and it has been the thing that spread across the country, and we wanted to problematize that to an extent, and offer another perspective. So we started calling it a rebellion.”
Colloquial references to the events of ’67 as either a “rebellion” or an “uprising” are common in Detroit — in fact, the term you choose to apply to these circumstances often lets people know your perspective on it — but the Charles H. Wright appears to be the first institution to officially adopt that nomenclature as a matter of policy, and this seems right in step with their commemorative exhibition, organized by Falker, Say It Loud: Art, History, Rebellion.
Jamea Richmond-Edwards, “Levitate” (2016), mixed media on canvas
The exhibition spans decades, and puts some of Detroit’s hometown heroes, like artists Senghor Reid, Saffell Gardner, Tylon Sawyer, and Yvonne Park Catchings, in conversation with artists that have national and international profiles, like Carrie Mae Weems, Sanford Biggers, Hank Willis Thomas, and Melvin Edwards. Most of the 40-plus artists with works on display are African-American, and the show centralizes the daily experiences of black artists in Detroit and beyond.
The Charles H. Wright, a historical museum, does not always show art, but Falker wanted to make the exhibition an accessible experience for its audience.
“I think that’s one thing that artists do very well, is they deal with their own realities in their own ways,” said Falker. “And I think that when visitors come, they can find a piece that deals with reality in a way that’s similar to how they would deal with reality. There’s enough breadth of artworks that we can speak to multiple generations, different kinds of people, different races, different backgrounds, at the same time.”
Still capture from a performance/video work by Sherina Rodriguez Sharpe
This manifests in moments that range from exquisite to challenging, sometimes simultaneously. Much of the work is figurative, and visitors are greeted by largely recognizable imagery, such as two mixed-media portraits of young black women by Jamea Richmond-Edwards, or photographs from Civil Rights protests in 1960s New York by Gordon Parks. A second theme touches on symbols, including renderings of iconic Civil Rights Movement leaders, as well as many takes on flags, from “Trump Edition” (2017) by Detroit native John Sims (known for his extensive work with flags), and Faith Ringgold’s “Flag for the Moon (Die Nigger)” (1969).
Faith Ringgold, “Flag for the Moon (Die Nigger)” (1969), oil on canvas
“I have been looking at that piece [Ringgold’s] since 10th grade, maybe, and I said to myself: this has to be in this show,” said Falker. “I think it really speaks to a feeling of not belonging, but wanting to belong that a lot of people identify with, and that spans generations. That piece was done in 1969, but the idea that you want to be American, you want to be a part of this country, but a lot of people of color don’t identify strongly with a nationality. I was just having this conversation with a friend of mine, about the difference between being black in America and being black in, say, Nigeria. You’re from Nigeria, you are Nigerian, you identify with that country. Being in America and being black is a very different kind of feeling. It’s a very, ‘Do I belong here? Do people want me here?’”
Richard Wilt, “Words and Voices” (1968), mixed media.
Included in the exhibition is “Laocoön” (2015) by Sanford Biggers, which was the subject of some controversy, in terms of its subjugation of a black body. Here, there is a sense of it being held safely in the space — surrounded by similar faces, watched over in empathy, and on display not for a detached viewing experience, but perhaps as a focus for personal pain. As Detroit critic and Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA) curator Taylor Aldridge said in an email to Hyperallergic: “I’ve been wondering, if we’re going to keep creating artwork that depicts and portrays violence, specifically tied to race and oppression, how can we create gallery spaces that encourage visitors to mourn and lament these human proxies that are represented through visual ephemera, rather than perpetuating environments of just viewing and consumption?”
The efforts on the part of the Charles H. Wright to present work in precisely this manner have very much paid off. Say It Loud has proven that a riot by another name may lead to a more liberated viewpoint, and one which prioritizes the lived experiences of African-Americans.
Say It Loud: Art, History, Rebellion continues at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History through January 2, 2018.

Titans Defensive Quarterly Evaluations
Titans Defensive Quarterly Evaluations
DE Austin Johnson- Johnson has three games where he predominantly played end and one where he predominantly played nose tackle. First of all, he’s not playing enough. He’s only played in 30 percent of the teams snaps and that’s just not enough for a key defensive end. His stats are poor, but he is regularly “right there” to make a play while someone else gets a tackle. Since he only played one game at End as a rookie, this is essentially his rookie year there. He gets bulled over by offensive linemen but yet other times he also shows real good fight to him. The “jury is still out” on him as an end. I would predict good things but only give him a C for a grade.
DE/NT DaQuan Jones- He plays 48 percent of the snaps which is too low. Once he became a fine “fill-in” at nose tackle, his stats and snaps should have increased considerably. I think he likes getting moved around. My impression is that he is somewhat stagnant when he is always at end, but there’s a ‘skip to his step’ when he is moving around the defensive line. When he’s fired up, he’s a pretty solid defensive end. He won’t remind anyone of Reggie White, but he can hold his own just fine. I see him as the best defensive line player four games in. Grade: A.
DT Jurrell Casey- Mister wonderful is having issues this year. On the rare occasion that he doesn’t have 3 or 4 blockers to fend off, he is his typical wonderful self. Offenses are smothering him with unfair numbers. Still trails a play better than any defensive lineman in football. fGrade: B.
Sylvester Williams- As I’ve said, he gets pushed around at least 80 percent of the time and regularly looks at his feet. He has a surgically repaired ankle and while it’s a total guess on my part, looking down at the ankle so often could mean he has an issue with it. His 21-32 percent snap counts for weeks 1-3 don’t warrant $7 mil per season nor display confidence from the coaching staff. Grade: F.
Wesley Woodyard- Dig out the cliches of the fountain of youth, he has been either very good or excellent each week. Grade: A.
Erik Walden- The defensive linemen listed as an outside linebacker rarely lines up off the line of scrimmage. Did the Titans switch to a 4-3 and not tell anyone? He is good, not bad, not excellent….good. I absolutely never expected him to play 50 percent of the snaps. He sees as much time as some starters.
Kevin Dodd- Still can’t cover, essentially a defensive lineman with his hands in the dirt. As I’ve written often, I don’t see it with him. I think he’s a bust and Mularkey or Jon Robinson need to move on. He was only active for one game. Grade: F.
Jayon Brown- There are good long stretches where all he does is cover the tight end. That limits his effectiveness and I wish they would use him more as a traditional ‘backer. Their usage of Brown in preseason was perfect- do that. He’s only “soso” covering the tight ends. He’s a rookie and he is often there, but not making a play. Brown will develop. There’s much to be hopeful for here. Grade: C.
Avery Williamson- My Man! What happened? He is not holding up as he used to. In every prior year, the Titans had weak nose tackle play making Williamson’s job more difficult than necessary. He still got it done. This year, he is struggling. He often misses tackles and/or holds on until someone else makes a tackle. In the past, he would wrap someone up or lay a hit and the play was over. Grade C.
Derrick Morgan- There have been moments that he is the lone bright spot. He is on his way to having an impressive 2017 season. Grade: A.
Brian Orakpo- The man impacted by Casey switching sides is Orakpo. He’s got his hands full trying to get around the swarm of linemen smothering Casey. He’s still a beast and clearly can still be a top linebacker. His job is just unusually difficult thus far. Grade: B.
Logan Ryan- Outstanding slot corner came over as advertised. He doesn’t play so well outside. He’s a shutdown corner in the slot and that should be enough for the Titans staff to work with. Grade: B.
Adoree Jackson- The Titans staff needs to pull him when he’s whooped. My goodness does he have the talent and athleticism to be a super cornerback. Some Sunday’s he takes his lumps and looks like a glutton for punishment though. I imagine a series on the sideline to get his head back would do wonders for the future star. He has allowed a ton of catches but he is also “right there” step for step with some of the best wide receivers. Grade: C.
Brice McCain- Last year he struggled outside and was good in the slot. This year it’s been the same. Why put him outside if the results are predictable? Just let him be a dime cornerback and Ryan’s backup. Sometimes when he gets subbed in, quarterbacks go right after him. Grade: D.
LeShaun Sims- Still a human blanket. He (and Ryan) have had some bad snaps here n’ there. In totality though, he’s been sharp. Sims playing less than 50 percent of the snaps has been a head-scratching decision by the staff. Grade: B.
Kevin Byard- Still stuck as a free safety, rocks as a strong safety. As I’ve written often, the Titans did not address the lack of an outfielder and didn’t keep (Denzel Johnson) the one outfielder they had this summer. Free Safety grade: D. Strong Safety grade: A.
DaNorris Searcy- He’s “out of place” as a free safety splitting the field or a free safety playing outfielder. He hasn’t done well and a strong safety shouldn’t have to. Grade: F.
Curtis Riley- I have been impressed with Riley. This is his first extensive taste of NFL action and he gets better each week. I don’t know that he’s fast enough to be their outfielder, but with his effort, he will “die trying” and I applaud that hustle. He is an effective shoulder tackler too; looks like a well-drilled pupil. Grade: B.
Kalan Reed- Curiously absent thus far. Zero games, always inactive.
Brynden Trawick and Daren Bates- I had written that the Titans were “blowing smoke” and they wouldn’t truly play much on defense. Those two combine for two defensive snaps. Without the special teams effectiveness, they don’t appear to be good free agent signings by the Titans. I am hopeful special teams will improve though.
Overall-
The legend that is Dick Lebeau can only use what he has. That’s the first problem. It’s not totally on Lebeau that the defense hasn’t done so well. It’s on Mularkey and Robinson that decided the roster.
(Beating a drum) Antwaun Woods must be activated. MUST. Everything falls into place when he takes the field. Woods is an immovable object of a nose tackle and he has the ability to get into the backfield which few NFL nose tackles truly have. Defenses are always taught to funnel things toward the center. When the Titans do this and Williams has been pushed around, it’s hardly effective. Woods commanded double-teams against starting units all preseason. Austin Johnson would be getting one on one matchups and Casey would only have to beat one or two men. Behind Woods, “my man Avery” could play the middle linebacker role and just swallow up running backs rather than have to take on two blockers while simultaneously tackling the running back. All of these people in their spots with favorable matchups yields more effective pressure so less time for the defense to cover. Woods doesn’t have to be Aaron Donald or Albert Haynesworth during their best seasons. He can be Haynesworth during his younger years where he just held his ground moreso than pressured. That is sufficient. The domino effect Woods has on this defense is tremendous.
With difficult times at nose tackle the Titans have resorted to having four men on the line of scrimmage, often blitzing Woodyard, using Jones, Casey, Klug, and Johnson as an out of position nose tackle. If Woods plays, all of them play their typical roles. Some of them have the toughness to man the nose for a play here and there, but they don’t have the “beef” to handle it every snap. Lebeau is clearly compensating for the loss of Woods. In prior years, Lebeau will stack five or six players on the line to apply intimidating pressure. This year it appears to be a way to compensate. It’s lost its effectiveness without Woods since those out of position nose tackles are still weak up the middle.
Free up the safety- Denzel Johnson needs to play or last year’s starter, Rashad Johnson, needs to be brought back. Kevin Byard needs to do what he does best. There’s no gain from making a star strong safety into a below average free safety. Start Johnson and let Byard roam; let Byard remind us just how vital great strong safety play is to a Lebeau defense.
Too cute-
Let them all do what they do well, everyone. Sylvester Williams played a few snaps at defensive end this summer. He did fine. He held his ground and allowed Orakpo to get to the quarterback. Let Brown use his speed and some of the times let the Safety cover the tight end. Let Ryan stick on the slot and go into games knowing one wide receiver is shut down. Let Sims continue to blanket wide receivers and develop opposite Adoree. Blitz Woodyard sometimes, not “every down” as it often seems. Let him play linebacker. Stop running this faux 4-3 where Avery is the middle linebacker, run the 3-4 that Lebeau is famous for.
No, no, and no! Stop having Leshaun Sims be the gunner and down on every punt and kick return. Starting corners should not be risked like that. Eric Weems should have one spot manned and there are a plethora of wide receivers and David Fluellen who should be able to man the other spot. Another option would be to treat Brice McCain as the backup and play him there, not Sims.
The Tennessee Titans rank 30th in total defense. They have way more talent than the 30th ranking indicates. There’s a curious exercise that teams do where they play vanilla defense in preseason to not show the other teams too much on tape. Well, what they did in preseason worked well. Start Woods and Johnson and play the preseason defense. Let Lebeau scheme off of that base, not some faux 4-3 with everyone playing different roles than normal. Let the players and coaches do what they do best.
Missing spark plug-
It may seem minimal but its effect has never been. Karl Klug has to play and he has to be at defensive end. When that man makes a play, the entire defense and the crowd are instantly energized. Stop playing him at nose tackle, let him do his thing, and watch the trickle down effect it has on the other players.
Video snips from NFL.com
Notice how the line performs as one cohesive unit and how they don’t.
On this play, Williams gets pushed aside and a huge hole is created for the runner.
During this play, Williams is stood up by the center and can’t make a play on the quarterback as he runs by.
During this play, Antwaun Woods wins his battle and the Titans swarm
The defensive line loses the battle here, but Woods chases down the runner showing unusual tenacity for a nose tackle.
Woods holds his ground, as does the entire Titans defensive line, and they shift left to get the runner
AROUND COVER32 Recapping the 49ers’ Week 4 loss
Rams off to a surprisingly strong start to begin the year How has the Seahawks’ offense done so far this year?
Who’s going to win each Week 5 game?

Twitter - http://ift.tt/2dhHulk Instagram - http://ift.tt/2cTiqOh Facebook - http://fb.weeem.co.uk ------------------------------------------------ My internet is shit .... like "Holy Balls I could deliver this video faster on my push bike" slow. Ok, not quite that bad, but ADSL is hella slow compared to a lot of internet services that are available. If you want to Live Stream to internet services such as Twitch or Youtube at anything higher than 360p then, forget it. And uploading to YouTube takes so long that you might as well do it overnight But there is way and I figured out how to do it. My internet was around 16/1 down/up. To stream on Twitch I'd need at least a 2.5mb/s to 3Mb/s upload connection. I wasn't even close. By purchasing a MiFi router (and a separate 50Gb/month 4G mobile broadband package from a mobile carrier) I was able to Network Bond the (slow but stable) ADSL and the (fast but flaky) 4G mobile connection together to get basic fibre speeds. -- First off I purchased the MiFi/SIM from my carrier which allowed up to 50Gb data. -- Then I purchased the Speedify software which is unlimited data for a year. Last of all, make sure the streaming or uploading computer is connected by wire to your ADSL router and then by WiFi to the 4G MiFi router. In the Speedify software you'll see the connected networks and for maximum upload performance, just select Speedify to be in Redundant Mode. If you're wasting data using Speedify to download, then just keep it in Speed mode as it downloads much faster this way. And that's it. Fast internet if you're in an area that only has ADSL or some other slow internet available. What you find is that most people don't need faaaast internet all the time and this way will give you that speed boost available when you need it. One hidden advantage is that Speedify is also a VPN service. This means your internet data is encrypted plus you can also "spoof" being in a different part of the world. For example, if you're in the UK and YouTube says some music isn't available in your region, reconnect Speedify to another server (like NYC) and the music should play. Nifty :) For a Speedify streaming set-up, I'd recommend the following OBS-Studio settings for Streaming (e.g. Twitch): Output Bitrate: 2212 for content that's static - e.g. RPG or card games 2765 for constantly updating content - e.g. fist player shooters or driving games Encoder: your choice of x264 or NVENC if preferred/available Custom Encoder Settings: keyint=15 (Twitch default is a 2 second keyframe which =60 on a 30fps connection, but I found it has much better playback/viewing when the keyframe is set to refresh every 1/2 second (=15 @ 30fps) using the lower bitrates) Video Output: 1280x720 FPS: 30 Advanced Stream Delay Enable: Yes Duration: 1s Preserve Cutoff Point: Yes (will delay twitch playback if 4G drops for a bit, but it also keeps the Twitch stream alive) Bind to IP: Default (OBS will automatically use the Speedify connection)lly use the Speedify connection)

Coastal Carolina joins FBS with the most interesting coach in college football
2017’s 130-team preview series begins by welcoming the Chanticleers to the party.
"My story is 10 times better than the Rudy story," Moglia says. "Rudy's a tough kid in the city, Chicago kid that wanted to go to Notre Dame. That's it."
In 1983, Joe Yukica's Dartmouth Big Green went 4-5-1, playing pretty good defense but scoring 17 or fewer in each loss. To that point, Yukica had gone 23-11-1 in Ivy League play over his five years in Hanover. But the trend was growing negative.
In 1984, with a new defensive coordinator, the Big Green fell to 2-7, allowing 38 points per game over the first four games and never recovering. In 1985, following another two-win campaign, Yukica was fired ... and then unfired. He sued to force the school to uphold his contract, which expired after 1986, and he somehow won. He won three games in 1986 and retired on his own terms.
That Yukica was able to overrule his own firing was the most noteworthy thing about his tenure. He never recovered from losing his defensive coordinator following the 1983 season.
That DC was a 34-year-old named Joe Moglia. He had six years of coordinator experience, but he pursued a different calling, one that actually paid a little bit. He went to work for Merrill Lynch and within a couple of decades became CEO of what is now TD Ameritrade. And then he went back to his football roots.
In 2008, Moglia decided he wasn't done with coaching after all. He retired as CEO and became an unpaid assistant for Bo Pelini. As one does.
Moglia volunteered at Nebraska, became head coach of the UFL's Omaha Nighthawks for a year, then took on the head coaching job at Coastal Carolina.
Moglia has gone from the Ivy League to Wall Street to Nebraska to the outskirts of Myrtle Beach.
He has been the subject of profile pieces from the New York Times, Sports Illustrated, and Grantland, to name a few. If there's one thing he knows, it's taking an uncertain leap. And now his employer will do the same.
It’s rather on-brand for Moglia to oversee Coastal’s leap to FBS. The school didn’t have a football program until 2003, when Moglia was overseeing Ameritrade acquisitions. He is just the second coach in program history, and he didn’t waste a moment proving himself as a program leader.
The Chanticleers improved from 7-4 to 8-3 in 2012, his first season. Since then, they’ve averaged an 11-2 record and twice finished in the FCS top 10. In both 2013 and 2014, they reached the FCS quarterfinals but had the misfortune of drawing North Dakota State. In 2014, they nearly beat the Bison.
So now it’s Sun Belt time. It’s easy for a program to mistime its jump to FBS — you have to call your shot at least a couple of years out, meaning you have time to fall off pace or make a bad hire. UMass and Western Kentucky were successful FCS programs but hit FBS with a dull thud. WKU rebounded, but it took a few years. UMass is still looking for traction.
Others have done just fine. New conference mates Georgia Southern and Appalachian State have been in FBS for six combined seasons and won at least nine games in four of them. Old Dominion and South Alabama were bowling by their third seasons in FBS.
At this point, UMass is an outlier. If you are doing well in FCS when you make the jump, odds are pretty good that you’ll find FBS to your liking.
And Coastal Carolina was doing quite well.
2016 in review
CCU wasn't eligible for the FCS playoffs in 2016 due to transition rules, but the Chanticleers were as solid as ever. They went 10-2, losing only to excellent Jacksonville State and Charleston Southern teams by a combined two points.
On the road against JSU, four different Chanticleers threw passes as Coastal fell victim to quarterback injuries. But Coastal still led 26-20 until JSU scored with 6:44 left.
Against Charleston Southern, the offense wasn’t an issue: The Chanticleers averaged 7.4 yards per play and raced ahead 21-7 after one quarter. After falling behind at halftime, they took a 35-30 lead heading into the fourth. After CSU took the lead back, CCU’s Ryan Granger forced overtime with a 35-yard field goal. The teams traded scores, but after Kenneth Daniels got the ‘Cleers to within 59-58 with a touchdown in the second overtime, Granger’s PAT attempt was blocked. CSU survived.
Average score of Coastal’s other 10 games: CCU 36, Opponent 15.
The Chanticleer offense has averaged at least 34 per game in every year of Moglia’s tenure, and the defense has come around over the last three years. CCU allowed a Moglia-low 5.1 yards per play in 2016, good enough to offset some quarterback issues.
Offense
Okay, let’s back up. “Some quarterback issues” doesn’t really cut it.
I hate to use my one allotted “exploding Spinal Tap drummers” reference this early in the preview series, but it might not ever be more applicable.
Three-star QB-of-the-future Chance Thrasher was lost with a shoulder injury in fall camp.
Sophomore Josh Stilley took over and got hurt in Week 3 against Jacksonville State. Freshman Avery McCall came in and also got hurt. He redshirted.
Junior and career backup Tyler Keane made it 105 passes before injuring his ankle.
Freshmen Austin Bradley and Ryan Lee took over. Bradley couldn’t really run, and Lee couldn’t really pass — he threw three passes while rushing 73 times. He will play receiver in 2017.
You can forgive the offense for slumping to 37 points per game and 5.8 yards per play.
Coordinator Dave Patenaude’s plans to move to more of a pass-first attack went out the window early in the cavalcade of QB injuries. Instead, Coastal leaned heavily (and with great effect) on the run. A foursome of backs — De’Angelo Henderson, Kenneth Daniels, Osharmar Abercrombie, and Jah-Maine Martin — averaged 32 carries and 187 yards per game. Lee provided a jolt as well.
Patenaude’s improv act was good enough to earn him a promotion. He took the Temple coordinator job. In his place, Moglia called in a ringer: Jamey Chadwell, Charleston Southern's head coach. Chadwell won 35 games in Charleston and reached the FCS playoffs twice in four years, but the draw of the FBS leap was strong.

Former BC back Marcus Outlow joins the CCU backfield in 2107.
Chadwell’s 2016 offense at CSU averaged 44 carries and only 17 passes per game. The Buccaneers were prolific, but it will be interesting to see what Chadwell attempts with his two leading rushers and basically 3.5 offensive line starters gone.
Something else interesting to watch: the redshirts.
Per the 247Sports Composite, Moglia’s 2016 recruiting class featured five three-star recruits and three high-twos. Not bad for a startup. Five of those play on offense, and four redshirted: McCall (involuntarily), running back Victor Greene, and receivers Larry Collins Jr. and Jay King II.
These players and Boston College transfer Marcus Outlow could give the Chanticleers a nice boost of athleticism in the skill positions. Plus, returnees like Abercrombie and Martin (combined: 5.6 yards per carry) and receiver Chris Jones (22 catches, 323 yards) could offset the loss of two leading rushers and two of three leading wideouts.
Find the right quarterback — and goodness knows they come in all shapes, sizes, and styles, from the pro-style Thrasher to the dual-threat McCall to Syracuse transfer Austin Wilson — and you might be able to implement whatever style you want.
At least, you can if you figure things out up front. Coastal has FBS-caliber size on the line; four returnees with starting experience (26 career starts) average 6’4, 300 pounds. But depth and experience were both depleted by graduation.
If 6’4, 305-pound JUCO transfer Kenneth Sims is a keeper, and if a three-star freshman or two are ready to stick in the rotation, maybe the line will be alright. But Coastal finished 2016 with 136 career starts and begins 2017 with 26. That’s quite a drop-off.
Defense
Moglia has basically put together an FCS all-star team on his coaching staff. Chadwell's bona fides are impressive, and a year ago Moglia named Mickey Matthews, head coach of James Madison's 2004 national title team, his defensive coordinator. Matthews led JMU for 15 years and won an FCS national title as Marshall's defensive coordinator in 1992 as well.
In Matthews' first season, the Chanticleers allowed 0.7 fewer yards per play (from 5.8 in 2015 to 5.1) and picked off 15 more passes than the year before. Their 19.2 percent havoc rate would have ranked 14th in the country at the FBS level. And a few of the reasons for this successful aggression return in 2017.
A few don’t, of course. Linebacker Alex Scearce (13.5 tackles for loss, eight sacks, 12 passes defensed) was Mr. Everything but ran out of eligibility. So did four of the top five tacklers in the secondary — and as we’ve seen, turnover in the secondary can be deadly for a defense.
Still, there’s a decent base of experience. Injury and shuffling led to nine defensive backs recording at least 10 tackles; five return, and all five are either juniors or seniors, including Kent State transfer Eric Church.
There are also some play-makers. Ends Marcus Williamson and Myles White combined for 15.5 tackles for loss and seven sacks in 2016, middle linebacker Shane Johnson combined 5.5 non-sack TFLs with three passes defensed, and junior Anthony Chesley (2.5 TFLs, two interceptions, eight breakups) immediately becomes one of the Sun Belt’s better cornerbacks.
Plus, like the offense, the defense could get an athleticism boost from redshirts and new signees: 2016 signees Silas Kelly (linebacker), Darrell Malone Jr. (cornerback), and Calvin Smith (safety) were all mid- to high-two-star recruits, and 2017 signees Tay Pringle (tackle), Michael Makins (linebacker), and Cantorian Weems (defensive back) were three-star guys.
Special Teams
It’s a mixed bag. Punter Evan Rabon’s kicks aren’t particularly long, but they are high and mostly unreturnable. And while sophomore return man Ky’Jon Tyler is all-or-nothing, the alls are impressive: He returned 12 kickoffs and punts in 2016, and two went for touchdowns.
Plus, while Masamitsu Ishibashi almost never gets the ball in the end zone on kickoffs, opponents averaged under 19 yards per return last year. There is value in high kicks, and CCU kicks ‘em high.
If Granger hadn’t run out of eligibility, this would be one of the league’s better special teams units.

For a newbie, Coastal gets some respect from S&P+. And really, that shouldn’t be much of a surprise. The Chanticleers ranked 101st in Sagarin last year. The next three FBS teams above them: NIU, Ohio, and UTSA, two bowl teams and a team that finished 5-7 in the MAC. The next three FBS teams below them: Arizona, Hawaii, and Miami (Ohio), two bowl teams and a Pac-12 program.
Coastal is projected 114th in S&P+, and it would be higher if not for the turnover in the secondary and the receiving corps. That results in quite a few tossups — CCU has between a 45 and 56 percent chance of winning in five games. Find a quarterback and establish a run game, and the odds of bowling in Year 1 are strong.
Moglia really is the perfect coach to lead a charge into FBS. It took him virtually no time to build an FCS stalwart, and his odd-as-hell résumé will help to generate a little bit of extra attention for CCU. And his Chanticleers aren’t that many ifs away from hitting the ground running at a pretty high speed.
