The Clackamas Wednesday, Feb. 15, 2012 newsed@ clockom os.edu Thank you for not procreating what is worse is parents are allowed to raise their children however they see fît Parents are, when you come down to it, >ple who had a horrible accident or a planned rrible accident. Either way, the skills used to create a baby are very diffeienr from the ones you need to raise i t Parents have to learn by the seat o f their pants, and m ost just aren’t very good at i t T hink about your parents. D o you m ink they did great? Maybe, hut you see what they did w rong right? You will be better at it than they ever were! Don’t lie; it is unbecom ing Parents are the worst thing for kids, warping them into little idealized versions o f themselves by projecting all o f their inadequacies, fears and ambitions onto a new, innocent life. Doric fret, everyone does this. It is part o f being a parent. It comes down to one th in g you aren’t ready and neither is almost everyone else. Having duldren is more m d more becoming a trend It is fashionable to be irresponsible. If a person hasn’t graduated middle school, if a person is in high school, if a person lives in squalor, they don’t neecb to be clouding the gene pool with more _ slack-jawed little parasites! * ' At thb^point it is hard to not look at the schools ancNjsk why they are doing so little to . inform breeding age stock o f how to use and wrap their waresfQh no, let’s teach them about abstinence, because flhafs how to keep kids from doing the vertical shuffle!

Countless others are not vaccinated because (with no evidence to back it up . the claim) those vaccinations cause autism or count less other side effects, sentencing their children to suffer and in some cases die. Get over it Stop having your litters o f mis behaved monsters, arid maybe just stick to one or two once you have reached a point in your life where you can dedicate the time and money, which are required, to raise a child right. There is no way to know what is the absolute ‘right way’ to bring up a kid, but before you do, try look at yourself in a mirror and ask .if you are j enough to create life. New website put on hold again By Joshua Dillen Associate News Editor There has been m uch anticipation for the release o f a redesigned website at Clackamas Com m unity College. M any at the college are eagerly awaiting its debut. According to Dean Walch, C C C webmaster, the January release has beeri delayed to ensure that the new site functions as smoothly and seamlessly as possible. “We were having some performance issues with the new system. We wanted to make sure we took every opportunity to make sure the launch was a success,” said Which. “Its such an important issue that we needed to resolve prior to launch. We don’t want a site that performs poorly.” Walch and his team were experiencing load issues with the site.The simple way to describe load issues means there were problems with the new sites abil ity to handle the large am ount o f users at any given time. Since the current website performs very well in that respect, he said it was important that the new dackamas.edu should do so as well. , | . T he new rite’s release date is up in the air. Walch explained that it won’t be launched during a busy tim e like registration. I know we have a working date, but I don’t know when that is,” he said. “We nave the students’ best interests in mind.” H e thanks students for their patience and expressed that the delay is a result o f making sure the rite will perform well for them. C C C Chief Information Officer and Dean of Information technology Kim Carey is project man ager, coordinating the design and release o f the new site; she expressed the importance o f making sure all potential problems are resolved before the site goes online. Carey hopes the site will be ready for use by the end o f March. “We are still1 very confident we’ve worked through issues we have had with performance,” said Carey. “We are being carefully considerate.” & Saturdays Blues Bar and Grill ’s Best Blues Venue Cascade Blues Association B By James Duncan Design Editor - « la # NW V IA C K A M A Î O M M U N l T Y C O L L E G E D o w n lo a d o u r n e w M o b ile A p p to d a y !
