Re: a good mixer for live broadcasting?
It's not the voltage that is the problem usually, it's the connector that plugs into the wall socket.

RE: On or Off topic, I'm not sure.
Both of my sons play soccer, and they each have since they were four years old, so I've been standing on a soccer side line every weekend for about the last 20 years. In that time, I've learned a little bit about soccer! Also, the whole house is a buzz right now with soccer and world cup talk. There are probably better explanations out there, but the one I found that talks about the rules of soccer and how it's played is at http://www.soccer-fans-info.com/soccer-rules.html. I'll also mention a few things below, but if you have any question, don't hesitate to send them to me off line. My email address is at the end of this note. Basically, each team has ten players on the field (or pitch) and a goal keeper. Generally they're arranged into forwards or strikers, midfieldman or halfbacks and full backs or defenders. A team may also call the two most outside midfieldman wings, the upmost defender a stopper and the furthest back defender a sweeper. Any player can go anywhere on the field, but the goalie can only use his hands when he's in the goalie box. Only the goalie can use his hands, and like I said, only when he's in the goalie box. In the World Cup, they play two 45 minute halves. They also add injury time at the end of the game to allow for the time when the play was stopped due to an injury. The clock keeps going in this case, but like I said, they add time on at the end of the game. If the game is tied at the end of regulation, they play two 15 minute periods. I think the World Cup uses sudden death or maybe they call it gold ball meaning that the game is over as soon as one team scores in these extra periods. If the game is still tied after these two extra periods then they go into a shoot out where each team takes five penalty shots. If it's still tied then five more penalty shots. I'm not sure what happens when they run out of players. In World Cup soccer, I think you only have five substitutes on the bench. You can only make three substitutions during a game, and once a player comes off, he can't go back in for the rest of the game. Sometimes, if a player is a little dinged up, he may come off for a few minutes, while his team is playing a man down, and then he'll come back into the game. If a player gets a red card, or a second yellow card, for committing a particularly flagrant foul then he has to leave the game and cannot be substituted for, so his team will play a man down for the rest of the game. Hockey is a good analogy, but there's obviously no ice or sticks in soccer. The goal is to kick the ball into the opposing teams goal. If a team kicks the ball out of bounce on the side line, then the other team throws the ball in from the side line. If a team kicks the ball past the end line that they're attacking then the other team will have a goal kick to put the ball back in play. A goal kick is also used to put the ball back in play after a goal. If a team deflects a ball past the end line it's defending then the other team will get a corner kick. They kick the ball in from the corner, and they generally try to loft the ball up in front of the goal so one of their players can head the ball into the goal. Obviously, the other team lines up in front of their own goal to stop this. This is an example of a set play in soccer. If a team commits a penalty in the box in front of their own goal then the other team gets a penalty kick, where you have just a single player shooting against the goalie. Penalties elsewhere in the field result in either a direct kick, where you can score, or an indirect kick, where the person kicking the goal cannot score directly. With a direct kick, the defending team will form a wall, if the ball is close enough to the goal. The start of each half and the restart of play for other reasons is done with a drop ball. Probably the most confusing rule in soccer is off sides. Basically, you cannot have a forward back in behind the other teams last defender. You can dribble the ball past the last defender, but you can't pass the ball to a player of yours who's behind the last defender when you make the pass. This is most dramatic when a team thinks it's scored, but the goal gets waved off due to an off sides call. I would guess that ESPN will assume there are a lot of first time soccer watchers in the US, so they'll probably try to explain some of the rules an nuances as they go. Of course, they're not going to want to upset the die hard fans by dumbing it down too much. Have fun, and like I said, just fire me a question directly. If I can't answer it, I'm sure one of my kids can. -- Christopher chalt...@gmail.com -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Vinny Samarco Sent: Thursday, June 10, 2010 12:14 AM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: On or Off topic, I'm not sure.

Re: a good mixer for live broadcasting?
Hello Robert, I'm quite sure, there are adapters for that too as well. The last time I traveled to West Germany, I had to not only buy step down power transformers, I also had to buy special adapter plugs to put at the end of those transformers. But please understand, this was some 15 years ago. West Germany is where my wife is from, so ultimately, she knew where to find them when we got there. So if these adapter plugs can be found here in the states, you may need to ask an electrical supplier or ask someone at RadioShack. My best regards.

Re: On or Off topic, I'm not sure.
You didn't mention the hamming it up that some players do to have an opposing player given a yellow card. It's usually so obvious that you have to wonder that the referee does not give out a red card for bad acting. The other thing that should be mentioned for the benefit of people used to other football codes, there are not many goals in soccer. Scores of 1 nil or nil all are quite common. A soccer goal can be regarded as the equivalent of ten points in most other football codes.
