Not sure if this has been posted but i finally saw it.

TARGET ST. LOUIS Vol. 1© tells the story of how the United State Military conducted secret chemical testing on citizens of St. Louis's Northside. Told through the eyes of the survivors who bravely share their experiences of being unwitting test subjects. Long before the current scandal of lead poisoning of the water supply of Flint, Michigan, the United States Army conducted secret experiments on unknowing residents of northern St. Louis using toxic chemicals. The predominantly African American residents of northern St. Louis are the focus of this film. "Target: St Louis Vol. 1" shares their disturbing story of how these Cold War experiments occurred and the film examines the actions of the US Military that extended beyond the guarantees of public safety promised to US citizens by the Constitution.

The St. Louis Urbanists are starting a Bike Bus for home CITY games! It's a fun, healthy, and eco-friendly way to get to CITYPARK.

We take off from Amsterdam Tavern 75 minutes before kickoff, picking up folks along the route, and returning along the same route after the final whistle. All bikes and skill levels are welcome – we try to maintain a 9-12 mph pace on low-traffic streets and we'll use the bike trail from Scott Ave to CITYPARK, which just finished construction last month.

Meet new people, get some exercise, save money, and show your CITY pride!

Check our Meetup page for all the details: https://www.meetup.com/stlurbanists/events/301296475/

Where is a good place to do drive cycles to get the OBD2 parameters in the ready state for an emissions test?

I’m still checking which drive cycle patterns I need to run, but most of them involve driving at steady speeds for several minutes. I saw prescribed patterns like driving about 30 mph for 2 or 3 min, and driving about 40-60 mph for 10-15 minutes. I might have to drive longer to set some parameters in ready state, but I guess a 12-15 mile flat stretch where you don’t have to brake, turn, or accelerate will work for most cars. I’m thinking I-64 might work, hugging the right lanes at 55-60 mph during low traffic for the faster pattern. Then for the slower pattern, maybe use Lindberg or some frontage road?

Who here has done similar drive cycles to prep older cars for emissions testing and can recommend good stretches of road for a couple different speed ranges?

Thanks for your suggestions.

I am currently in need of a lot of dental work. I have insurance but it is not the best, and I am looking for places that have affordable care. So far I found SLU, SIUE and STL Dental Center from AT Still.

I have a huge phobia of the dentist and was without insurance for awhile, but now that I started my new job I am looking for something affordable. Currently I know I will have to have 3/4 of my wisdom teeth removed from the last time I went 3 years ago, and am scared for my upper molars (both have been fractured to the inner half of the tooth, an one is starting to cause pain).

I have been putting it off due to lack of insurance, money and trauma related to dentistry/insurance as a child. I am trying to fix everything I have been ignoring the last decade of my life after getting insurance and back on my meds, but dentistry is one thing I'm horrified of due to the debt I know I will be in plus dumb stuff I started working through in therapy.

Does anyone have experience with the STL Dental Center, or one of the other dental schools?
