HBOC stands for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome. Having HBOC does not mean that you have cancer, or that you will get cancer. Having HBOC means that you may have an increased risk for certain types of cancer. It also means that some of these cancers may run in your family, passing from generation to generation. • Women with HBOC are more likely to develop cancers, such as breast and ovarian cancer, than women without HBOC. • Men with HBOC are more likely to develop cancers, such as breast and prostate cancer, than men without HBOC. NOTE: HBOC can pass from either parent. Therefore, it is important to know as much as you can about your family health history on both sides.

It’s time to vote. We honor the Americans who have died over the years to keep us free and preserve this cherished right to vote. But their sacrifice is even more heartening when we see repressed people from around the world waiting in line for hours, even days, to exercise this right we sometimes take for granted. And here in Oregon, we have work to do. Once again, the ballot will ask us to consider statewide measures dealing with taxes, property, education and other matters. There are 12 of them, four placed on the ballot by the Legislature and eight by citizen initiative. In the pages that follow, you will see arguments for and against these measures as written by their supporters and opponents. Please read them and think carefully. What we decide as voters will have a huge impact on the state and our pocketbooks. Voting offers power, the power to have a say in the policies and priorities that will govern your city, your county, your state and your nation in the years ahead.
