"ASHFORD UNIVERSITY" - A Diploma Mill.

University Degree Program (UDP) is an unaccredited consortium of diploma mills run by Americans Jason and Caroline Abraham (of Brooklyn, New York; also known by their Hebrew names Yaakov and Chaya Rochel) beginning in the 1990s. In 2004, The Chronicle of Higher Education called UDP the "granddaddy" of diploma mill operations.[1]

Entities associated with UDP

More wriggling...

Call me crazy, but I don't think the IsleChem Report is going to have much effect, immediately. A preaching to the choir sort of event, that doesn't give irrefutable evidence to spread to the masses due to the technicality of the report. I believe this is why URS is mentioned. John explained that IsleChem was important to get the permit in New York. URS will be important to get permits globally. Hopefully, other states(Florida) will fast track the permitting process once New York gives JBI their air permit.

In my opinion, the big event now is receiving the air permit in New York.
