A lawsuit filed in the U.S. claims that a pirate IPTV seller adopted a novel marketing strategy to support a business with 450,000 subscribers . According to the plaintiffs, the owner of the service "held himself out as a Chicago-area law enforcement officer" to "mitigate potential concerns" over the unlawfulness of his business. A theoretical damages claim of more than a billion dollars, plus an allegation of wiretapping, makes this case a little more spicy than most.

Learning to tap with more than three fingers isn't as hard as you might think, so in this lesson we're going to take a look at 5 finger tapping for guitar. The concept may be a little different for some, but the process of getting multi-finger tapping down is the same with any other technique.

All you have to do is start slow enough so that you can get the coordination down. Once you've got the muscle memory flowing, the tempo is a lot easier to keep than it is with standard three finger tapping.

Have a listen to this example, and then we'll break it down.





Here's a break down of the tapping process:

1. Tap the 11th fret with your picking hand index finger.
2. Pull off to the fretting hand index finger, which is anchored on the 5th fret.
3. Hammer-on/pull off from the 5th to the 7th fret with your ring finger.
4. Tap the 12th fret with your picking hand middle finger.
5. Pull off to the fretting hand index finger anchored on the 5th fret.
6. Hammer-on/ pull off from the 5th to the 8th fret with the pinkie finger.

That completes the whole cycle of this tap. The trick then is to make sure that you can loop the tap in good timing.

This particular five finger tapping exercise is of course minor, and is not appropriate for every style of music, but the formula for this type of guitar tapping can be customized to fit in with different styles of music.

It all depends on the tempo and key of the song that you want to use it in.

If for some reason you are having trouble with this exercise, focus on the index and middle fingers of the picking hand. Really give a lot of attention to those fingers when they are tapping.

Make sure to do this with the hammer-ons and pull offs as well. If you make it so that your intention is to have strong fingers, you will be golden with all things

Disclosed is a tap driver and tap driver system for rigid tapping, which includes a unique flexure system. In some embodiments, an integrated flexure component and housing configuration provides and may provide both a more economical and a universal configuration of the tap driver flexure component that allows the central body to be integrated with and into different types of tap drivers.

A radial tapping attachment for a motor-driven tool includes an enclosed, box-shaped housing, a main shaft assembly adapted to retain a tap, a drive mechanism rotatably driven by the tool and a guide member assembly for supporting an object to be tapped. The main shaft assembly includes a main shaft rotatably coupled to the housing by a pair of bearings, a pair of spaced apart discs fixedly mounted on the main shaft, and a pair of axially mounted compression springs that allow for slight, bi-directional, axial displacement of the main shaft relative to the housing. The drive mechanism includes a drive shaft rotatably coupled to the housing at an approximate right angle relative to the main shaft and a drive wheel mounted on the drive shaft that selectively engages the pair of discs to rotate the main shaft in either direction when an axial force is applied to the tap.

The device for tapping and inoculating trees includes an elongate, main arm having an actuating mechanism attached to one end and a housing attached to the opposite end. A cutting mechanism extends from one side of the housing and a spray system is disposed in a recess in the housing. A universal actuator operates both the cutting mechanism and the spray system upon activation by the actuating mechanism. The cutting mechanism taps or scrapes the bark off the target branch and the spray system sprays a solution that stimulates the tapped area into producing more sap and sap of higher quality.
