A video of a police officer using a Taser on 26-year-old black man Marcus Coleman in Denton, Texas, was recorded and posted on Twitter on Wednesday and has gone viral overnight. The police department press release and reason for using the Taser may be at odds with what’s seen in the video.

“We got to do better on both sides” I’m sorry but only one side needs to get their act together, and that side has badges

I love this because it’s so completely at odds with stereotypes of “medieval” technology. It’s actually kind of over-complicated compared to many later instruments, in terms of the mechanisms.

Hunh.  I’ve read about hurdy-gurdys, but never actually seen one, much less heard on in play.  Neat!

Very cool.

I have heard these play in recordings (mostly in the backgrounds of history documentaries) but never knew what the instrument was. Nifty!

The sound actually reminds me a lot of a bagpipe, but strings rather than wind, of course.
