China debuts driverless train that only needs white painted lines as tracks
(mashable.com)
China’s latest mode of public transportation is a bus, tram and train rolled into one. Its maker, Chinese rail transit firm CRRC, is calling it a “smart bus,” but it’s a lot more than that. Like a train, it’s modular and carriages can be added on; but like a bus, it runs on the road. Amazingly, the carriage will follow a preset path and won’t need a driver — but it won’t need tracks to be laid, either. The train is equipped with sensors that’ll allow it to follow white-dotted lines on the road. (MORE HERE)

Prophets Of Rage and Serj Tankian
Prophets Of Rage were joined by Serj Tankian of System Of A Down to pay tribute to the late Chris Cornell this weekend at Germany’s Rock Im Park Festival.
While a beautiful tribute, it is so apparent that no one will ever be able to reproduce the vocal stylings of Chris.
1964 – 2017. The voice of a generation, an artist for all time.

The City Is Offering Free Bike Riding Classes To Adults This Summer
The city is going to be offering free bicycling classes to adults this summer, in parks on the South and West sides of the city.
The classes are taught by the Bike Ambassadors program and are courtesy of the city’s Department of Transportation, the Divvy bike share program and its sponsor, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois, and Divvy is providing bikes meaning you can come learn how to ride even if you don’t have a bike.
Transportation officials said in a press release that the classes would be good for people who have never ridden before or have taken anywhere from a couple years to a couple decades off. They also noted that it makes sense for the city to offer classes to novice riders in tandem with its effort to expand bike sharing and other bike resources and infrastructure around the city—it’s all with the goal of making it easier for people to choose to ride rather than drive.
