"It's just a lot of fun," says the former Huntington resident. "Charlotte is an old town, but it's a very young city." Published Monday, April 29, 2002 By JIM ROSS The Herald-Dispatch Real estate agents and the local politicians in Huntington have known for years that people are crossing the Ohio River to find new places to live. But even they are surprised when confronted with the numbers. Nearly 1,000 people have left Cabell and Wayne counties in the last five years to live in Lawrence County, Ohio, where new subdivisions along the river and open land on the back roads offer newer housing and more room, not to mention one of the best public school districts in Ohio.

Midway between Beckley and Bluefield, just north of the Interstate 64-77 split, a large green sign stretches across the West Virginia Turnpike. One half of the sign points east to Richmond, Va. The other half points south to Charlotte, N.C. It is a giant metal banner pointing the way out of state. And for many young West Virginians, it is a sign pointing to opportunities.

VOLUME 29, NUMBER 2 - February 1998 Prevention studies take a variety of tacks Psychologists’ prevention studies shed light on how to prevent the spread of AIDS. By Peter Freiberg W ith different groups and in different places, AIDS-prevention researchers are stepping up their efforts to find out what works—and what doesn’t—in encouraging safer sexual behavior. ”Prevention has really come into its own,” says psychologist Thomas Coates, PhD, director of the new AIDS Research Institute at the University of California–San Francisco, “and it is recognized as a legitimate scientific enterprise in its own right.” Psychologists have taken the lead in the prevention effort, which is viewed by researchers as increasingly important in view of the rising number of HIV infections worldwide (see story on page 32). As four recent studies show, psychologists’ work in the area of AIDS prevention research has been varied: • In four small U.S. cities, popular gay men were trained to advocate the benefits of practicing safer sex to men who frequent gay bars. • In San Francisco, a group of African-American gay and bisexual men delved into issues of self-pride and the stigma many felt over their dual black and gay identities.

The impact of Congress’ decision will be felt throughout the United States—from coast to coast, in every state, in cities large and small, by businesses of virtually every size and type. These businesses depend substantially on access to international markets for their growth and viability, and have the potential to prosper greatly, with benefits to employees and citizens alike, if Congress allows them full access to China’s enormous market.
