CLASP -- Classic ASP Framework

If you are transitioning from Classic ASP to ASP.NET, this is a cool framework to implement in the meantime….

CLASP - Classic ASP Framework

In short, CLASP is a Framework developed in VBScript for the development of Classic ASP WEB applications. Now, you may ask yourself, why should I consider CLASP when there is ASP.NET out there?.

- Need to maintain/extend current ASP Applications that will not be migrated over to .NET in the near future.

- All the above while making sure that your code will be easily ported to ASP.NET.

- It is a white box, nothing to hide here!, you can modify the code to suit your needs.

Sperm donor must pay child support

The most imporant aspect of this ruling: “This decision could have implications for sperm and egg donors who expect anonymity, said Arthur Caplan, a professor and medical ethicist at the University of Pennsylvania.”

HARRISBURG, Pennsylvania (AP) — A state appeals court ruled that a verbal agreement between a woman and her sperm donor was invalid, and ordered the man to pay child support for the woman’s twins.

The three-judge panel ruled Thursday that the deal between Joel McKiernan and Ivonne Ferguson — in which McKiernan donated his sperm and would not be obligated to pay any support — was unenforceable because of “legal, equitable and moral principles.”

Despite an agreement that appeared to be a binding contract, the father is obligated to provide financial support, the court decided.

“It is the interest of the children we hold most dear,”’ wrote Senior Judge Patrick Tamalia.
