Glerup elected for first time in 1984
by Samantha White
Burns Times-Herald
"It's just time," Harney County Sheriff Dave Glerup said regarding his upcoming retirement.
After 26 years of service, Glerup announced that he plans to retire from his position as sheriff Jan. 1, 2015.
Glerup was elected sheriff for the first time in 1984, and he took office in 1985. After serving three consecutive four-year terms, he lost the 1996 election.
Thus, he took a four-year hiatus from law enforcement, during which he owned and operated a private business.
But Glerup said he resumed his post after he was "accosted" by the district attorney and juvenile director and persuaded to run for sheriff again.
He was re-elected in the following election and has served three-and-a-half consecutive terms since then.
Background in law enforcement
Glerup said he's wanted to work in law enforcement since he was 18 years old.
After graduating from Burns Union High School in 1969, Glerup went to Southern Oregon College (now Southern Oregon University) on a wrestling scholarship. While in college, Glerup took law enforcement classes and became familiar with the area.
He joined the Oregon State Police (OSP) force Oct. 1, 1972 and chose to work in Medford.
"At the time, you couldn't work in your home town unless you lived in Portland because they figured you might not know everyone in Portland," Glerup explained.
Hired at the age of 21, Glerup was the youngest trooper on the force at the time. He was also one of the first people in his recruit class to be interviewed for the position.
However, after learning that both his father and youngest daughter contracted cancer, Glerup decided to leave his job with OSP and move back to Harney County. He purchased a business from a family friend and operated it for six years, before deciding to sell it and run for Harney County sheriff.
Occupational hazards
After only about five months on the job, Glerup received a report of two individuals shooting at a house in Lake County.
Responding to the call, Glerup drove down Highway 395 toward Lakeview, as the shooting took place in Valley Falls.
Glerup said he was about 16 miles south of Riley when he passed the suspects' vehicle, which was headed in the opposite direction. Glerup turned around, and an 80 to 85 mph chase ensued.
Glerup said it wasn't "a real high-speed pursuit" because he and the suspects were both driving Ford pickups.
However, about two miles east of Riley, the passenger of the suspects' pickup leaned out the window and fired a number of rounds at Glerup's sheriff's department pickup with an AR-15 automatic rifle.
According to an article published in the Burns Times-Herald March 20, 1985, "Glerup said five to seven rounds struck the front of his truck. A bullet fragment also struck his leg, leaving only a welt."
Glerup radioed for backup, and officers from OSP, Burns Police, Hines Police and Tribal Police set up a roadblock near the Bureau of Land Management horse corrals, which is where the pair was arrested for alleged attempted murder, unauthorized use of a motor vehicle and robbery in the first degree.
During the course of his career, Glerup also participated in a double homicide investigation in which both of the victims had been married to the same man. After about a five-year investigation and three-month trial, that man is serving two life sentences in Oregon penitentiaries.
One year, Glerup participated in three homicide investigations within a five-month time frame. All three of the incidents occurred within a quarter mile of the sheriff's office. In fact, one of them took place across the street.
But despite the obvious dangers of dealing with suspects, Glerup said the most challenging aspect of his job has been managing the county's 23-bed jail.
"We have to care and provide for all the people in the jail, and there are a lot of demands put forth by state and federal government on operation of the jail," he explained.
In addition to managing the jail and sheriff's department, Glerup oversees 9-1-1 dispatch and community corrections.
He now supervises 23 employees, which is a dramatic increase from the five employees who were on his staff the first time he was elected.
"When I first got elected, I did not have any certified deputies to work with me," Glerup said, explaining that there were only four corrections officers and a civil deputy.
Serving the people
When asked about the most rewarding aspect of his position, Glerup said it varies daily. However, he said he's enjoyed getting to know the people who he represents and being able to pay them back for all the support they've given him over the years.
His advice for the next Harney County sheriff is to be very open with the public and remain available.
"I get probably as many phone calls at home as I get at the office," Glerup said, adding that he's always listed his cellphone number.
Plans for retirement
When asked what he plans to do when he retires, Glerup beamed with pride and said, "Boy, I've got eight grandkids, so that's pretty exciting."
Due to the demands of his job, Glerup said he's missed out on some important family events with his daughters and grandchildren.
"I missed out on a lot of my kids' ball games and things like that because of work," Glerup said. "I had to work many a Christmas Day and holiday because that's when things happen, unfortunately."
In addition to spending time with family, Glerup plans to travel with his wife, Becky, who will retire from her position at Harney Electric Cooperative Inc. in a few months.
"Becky is Basque, so she wants to go to Spain," Glerup said. "We might wander that way."
He added that he'd also like to see the rest of the contiguous United States.
Glerup said he has a "pretty nice" fishing boat that he'd like to take out on the ocean or larger lakes, so fishing is also in his future.
Parting words
Glerup said he doesn't know who the next sheriff will be, but he thinks it's important that the citizens of Harney County hold whoever he/she is to "do the office right."
He added, "I've tried to do that for 26 years. You can't make everybody happy, but you have to do the right thing for the right reasons."

"Good book from a good series"
I've heard all the Retrieval Artist books and enjoyed them. They are just a solid, enjoyable listen for me.
In this book I really liked getting so in close with the Disti(aliens). I felt like we got to know them much better as a people than has previously been the case for other aliens.
This one also had some added spice in how the story followed numerous characters' points of view consistently through the book rather than mostly sticking to the 2-3 mains.
"The Epic Continues..."
And so the Saga continues and I remain enthralled. This book picks up the pace just a bit for those desiring a little more action and/or destruction as hostilities increase.
More players enter the fray as well as more races come from hiding or are made known, bringing the true extent of the battle into sharper focus. Plots thicken, as they are often wont to do, and character development marches forward.
There's not too much else to say without trying to summarize the book in some way. You should have read the first one by this point, this is another part of the journey toward the conclusion and for my party I continue to enjoy nearly every step.
"A Multifaceted and Epic Story"
As I think on it, I can understand where some of the negative reviews are coming from but as for my own taste I must disagree with their final verdict.
No, this is not a fast action, seat of your pants kind of book, because that is the reality of the situation. This is a story spanning years and while great battles may punctuate points in time, the interplay of political and interpersonal events are just as much a part and just as important to deciding the course of history as the battles and their outcomes.
So while I am actually often a fan of thrilling action filled novels I find myself still in love with this series. I love the detail of the story, the complexity of interweaving events and the subtle growth and development of the characters.
A thought that I would like to highlight for you as you read this. The complete series is named after the Ildiran's own story, "The Saga of the Seven Suns", for a reason. Though though there are plenty of details and comments on the alien epic that are purely part of the story there are still numerous parallels between what the saga is supposed to be, the beliefs wrapped up around it and the flow and direction of the actual series.
Its a freebie snippet, not bad, not great. I think something a little more informational/instructional about the service may have been a better choice.
"Fun Book"
Its a well read and humorous listen. There really isn't much to say, listen to this book to get some info about robotics and laugh while you do it and who knows, maybe, just maybe, if the revolutions comes soon enough, this book will save your life.
"Its the bible"
What can I say, its the bible and the narration was good. I did some research before hand and the NASB seems well accepted as one of the better and more accurate English translations currently available.
This fits my purposes, which is to try and finally get through the whole thing. Since I'm just trying to have a proper run through hitting certain sections is not an issue. If you are thinking of using this as a general resource don't, its just kind of silly idea in the first place, that's what book style bibles are for.
However, if you are one of the many who have never managed to find the time to give the full thing a proper read/listen, and you'd like that commute time to mean something for once, then this is a good option.
"Interesting Story, GREAT Narration"
This book was actually my first venture into the more modern(in this case dark) fantasy realm. Before my fantasy reads/listens were more classic old world stuff. I have to say I'm a fan though, of this book anyway, well written with interesting twists and turns. The narrator really brought it to life though, just fantastic work.
"Fantastic Read"
I couldn't tell you really what I was expecting from this book, but I can tell you the book was better. Solid narration and great story, always a winning combination. I don't know how "deep" one might call it as I know thats a thing for some but its just a fun listen in general and I wouldn't call it shallow
"Great story, great detail, great narration"
This was actually my first audio book and having heard a fair selection since I can say it was a great choice to get me started. The narration is very well done and I love the story. I realize why some may be impatient with the detail, some just need that constant action sizzle, but I love it and the realism and detail in explaining how things work so that its believable(as much as can ever be done in scifi anyway) is great. As others have said the logistical thought put into the battles alone with their relativistic speeds etc. is simply amazing.
"Another Max Barry Success"
Another wonderful "read" from Max Barry. I read Jennifer Government before this and enjoyed it and the premise of Company did not disappoint.
Also might I say that William Dufris does a simply fantastic job in his narration, I have another tab open right now to see if he has done any other books I might like.
I think I understand why some people are not in love with the book. Its not written as pure comedy, amidst the satirical exaggerations there is a serious argument going on between the two sides of the work/life issue and if you don't buy into that dichotomy then you just not going to enjoy it as much.
"Not Bad but Targets the Younger Crowed"
I'm not very demanding but I had fun with the series, the story overall is interesting but I agree some of the dialogue is definitely aimed at a younger audience.
Really my only big gripe was the over use of repetitive phrasings or speech styles by 3 of the main characters. The arabian princes' people ALWAYS have a saying for a situation, Gwen is forever prepared with a numbered list of reasons why her side is right which she ticks off on her fingers and Vic continuously uses the speech formula, "X now, Y later". (ie - Fight now, ask questions later)
This persistent but in the scheme of things small annoyance aside it wasn't half bad, happy to use it to burn through my commute.
I just wish we could give half stars, I'd give it a 3.5

Romney's Energy Plan Ignores Solar's Success
Bloomberg News
Mitt Romney sets an ambitious goal with his pledge to achieve U.S. energy independence by 2020. It's just too bad his plan relies almost entirely on fossil fuels and largely ignores the solid promise of clean energy.
Romney's plan, rolled out Thursday in solar-friendly New Mexico, focuses heavily on oil, gas and, most unnecessarily, coal. The presumptive Republican presidential nominee promises to expand drilling on federal lands and to roll back environmental rules his campaign adviser Ed Gillespie says are "destroying the coal industry."

day trip: Nadal Castle, Numancia Aklan
The TV ad of Nadal Castle was so enticing that we decided to make a day trip to Numancia. We were so excited at the prospect of having a great photo session with our daughter. However, we were in for a great disappointment. The place was not as big as depicted in the TV ad. Also, the entrance fee, which was stated as consumable, is misleading. We were not informed that there is a separate menu where you can apply the "consumable" entrance fee". What was more aggravating was that you can not combine or use the entrance fee together with the fees of my friends, so you really need to shell out money. The worst part is that the food and the servings was not great. A simple trip just to scout the place ended up as a nightmare. This makes Sampaguita's level when it comes to accommodation and management on a higher level.
Great place to take pictures. The images posted online are very different from the one's you will see when you get there. Very disappointing.

Agzam Resort and Spa: Think about the reasonable price
I stayed there during Ati-Atihan Festival and paid 7,500 peso only for one night. I chose this hotel on the basis of the comment of this column. But it was unacceptable price. The atmosphere is not so bad, but the room is very old. If the price is 1,50'O peso for a night, it is reasonable. It is not a five-star class resort at all, but just economy type resort. Please don't stay if the price is more than 1,500 peso.

Bakhawan Eco-Tourist Center: Low cost accomodation
We stayed in the Bakhawan Eco-Tourism Center for 3 days. The room was modest w/ air conditioner, cable tv, private toilet but there is no hot water. There is a hall where you can have your meal, but there is no set menu, so you have to tell the staff what you want to eat in advance (one day before) so they can purchase the ingredients and cook the meal.
The place is walking distance to a mangrove forest preservation, and you can go there via a 820 meter bamboo footbridge. At the end of the footbridge, you can watch migratory birds, but it's better if you have binoculars.
If you're looking for peace & quite at a modest price, then this is the place for you.
It's quiet & far from the city proper.
The staff are polite & friendly, and even show concern for guests who go out at late hours of the night, because getting transportation going back to the inn at night is difficult & the road to the place has no street lights.

Agzam Resort and Spa: Kalibo Spa experience
I was looking for a place to stay in Kalibo when I heard about Agzam Resort and Spa.I decided to try it out.The trip was 10-15 mins away from the city proper and I was a little bit concerned how the place looks like since all that I see around are trees. I was so surprised when I got there. I never expected that a place like this existed amidst the vast rice field. The people there gave me a very warm welcome. As I finished filling up my registration card, I was given a two toned welcome drink.The place was packed with foreigners and there was only one room left for me. When I went inside my room, I was again surprised by the size of it. 7-9 people can fit in. I hurried and changed my clothes and went to the poolside to have dip in their jr olympic sized-heated swimming pool. I gave their spa a try. The massage area was like being in Bali or one of the spas in Thailand. They had nipa huts covered with white curtains. And as you lay there, you will hear birds chirpping and see them picking up dried grass with their beaks to make their nests. The landscape was also amazingly beautiful.During my stay, they were putting up an all organic coffee shop. I would definitely recommend this place to my friends. If you're a type of person who wants to appreciate nature and have retreat from the busy life that we have, this definitely is the place to go. I would definitely go back to Agzam.
The swimming pool has warm water all day long. Spacious airconditioned rooms.All rooms has their own hot and cold shower, television with cable.The spas' massage area (poolside) and the landscape were amizingly beautiful. The people were very accomodating. You would really appreciate nature in this place.

Beachcomber Inn-Kalibo: A Hotel With All The Comfort Of Home! :-)
Beachcomber Inn-Kalibo is a very nice place to stay. It's like a home away from home!
They have a spacious living room where you can enjoy a cup of coffee and read their daily newspaper. You can even order breakfast which they prepare right in their kitchen. If you don't feel like going out to eat, the hotel provides some menu from some restaurants in the area where you can order and they will deliver it for free. They also have a dining room/meeting room area with a Television/VCR. They have cold drinks(bottled water, juices, soft drinks) that you can buy inside the hotel.
The room where we stayed were very comfortable and clean. It's air conditioned and have a cable tv and phone. The bathroom is made of marble with a pretty good size shower with hot water. The beds(we have a queen size and a single) are very cozy and comfy. They also have tables and chairs and a vanity dresser in the room. All in all, it's a very nice room! =)
As for the location, it's more in a residential area but still walking distance to shops, stores, etc.(trikes are available close to the hotel-at all times). The good thing about the location.... the road not being congested and noisy, and you can have a good night sleep!
The Hotel is like a big house(3 storey) with at least 20 rooms and it's like you have'nt left home 'cause their staff are like family, they'll do the best they can to accommodate your needs.
Their rates are pretty affordable too,...from $20( US dollars) and up.....per room!
They have a security guard at night which makes you feel safe--in & out!
There's always a hotel staff that's available 24 hours.
You can always request a wake up call at any time.

Villa Atong Atang: MOLD!!
Get me an ENT, I think I'm going to die of mold. I have worse words to say about this place. But, to be polite, it was disgusting. I nearly puked twice within the twenty minutes that I was in the room. The turned on the A/C thinking it would make me feel better, which it didn't. The smell was so bad, it was in the sheets. Keep the bathroom door closed because it was even worse open. I could not wait to get out of that place. It wasn't soon enough.

Garcia Legaspi Mansion: Good Accomodation in Kalibo
I always stay at Garcia Legaspi when I'm in Kalibo, having checked out most of the competition. The place is situated on the third floor of a building on Roxas Ave opposite the Mercury Pharmacy, which is a good central location.
The rooms vary - there are large aircon rooms and smaller, cheaper ones with just a fan. I usually have a spacious room with TV, hot shower, aircon and comfy armchairs for around P900 per night.
The only downside is the restaurant / coffee shop - they usually don't have much food in stock. Last time I asked, all they had was chicken or instant noodles! It's not a problem though - we just get take-out or eat at the Lechon Manok place around the corner.

'Jewish Israelis becoming more religious, poll finds,' proclaimed a recent
headline in The Jerusalem Post (January 27). Haaretz was even more impressed,
using a large bold, two-line front-page headline reporting on a survey that
found a "record number of Israeli Jews believe in God."But before we get
either upset or ecstatic that Israel has found religion, we should take a deep
breath, read the survey carefully and then realize that there is nothing here to
get excited about, one way or the other.Remembering that such a survey
must have some margin of error, a change in those who believe in God from 76
percent in 1990 to 80% in 2009 hardly seems radical – especially when one takes
into consideration the increased numbers of both the national religious and the
haredi (ultra-Orthodox) populations. How many more of them were questioned this
time than before? Furthermore, take the question itself, "Do you believe in
God?" – to which 80% replied that they "believe wholeheartedly" or "believe but
sometimes doubt." How many were in the "wholehearted" category, and how many in
the "sometimes doubt" one? It makes a difference.Additionally, what does
"believe in God" really mean? It is such an amorphous concept that the answer to
it can mean much or little.INDEED, THERE is more hidden than revealed in
the figures that were presented in this article. Eighty-five percent said that
"celebrating the Jewish holidays as prescribed by religious tradition" was
"important" or "very important." But did they say they celebrated them that way
themselves, and, if so, what exactly do they observe? Which holidays and in what
way? Before we get too excited about an Israeli return to religion, let's not
forget that the majority of respondents also said they wanted shopping centers
and public transportation, as well as movies, restaurants, etc., to be open on
Shabbat. A majority support civil marriage as well.I think that this is
a case of much ado about nothing. To prove that there has been a resurgence of
religious belief or religious practice here – both of which I would love to see
– one would have to find out how many people have actually changed their ways of
believing or acting over the years. What this survey shows, if it shows
anything, is simply that the Orthodox and haredi populations have grown over the
past two decades, and that we already knew. What the rest of the population
thinks or does, and how that has changed, remains a great unknown.THE
IMPORTANT stories about religion and religious observance in Israel are the
growth in the haredi population, which will have profound effects politically,
financially and socially; the "haredization" of much of Orthodoxy; and the
radicalization of the haredi community.We no longer have a Mizrahi-type
Chief Rabbinate, but a haredi one. The demands that many Orthodox soldiers,
goaded by their rabbis, have made for the separation of men and women in the
army, as well as not hearing women sing, demonstrates a change in behavior, a
radical shift to the Right even among many so-called moderates.The
haredim themselves, or at least some of them, have also gone far beyond their
previous demands regarding women and have become physically and verbally violent
in their conduct.Personally I believe that we need more religion in
Israel, not less.But the religion we need is one that will turn away
from extremism and emphasize the humanism that is to be found in the Jewish
tradition, rather than the darker hues of superstition and
obscurantism.We need rabbis who will not automatically take the stricter
position when a more lenient one is available. Religion can be a force for good
and for moderation, or it can be a force for divisiveness. What is needed now is
more brave religious leaders who will speak up when Judaism is being distorted
and will lead it in the correct direction.Such a development would truly
warrant bold headlines.The writer, former president of the International
Rabbinical Assembly, is a two-time winner of the National Book Award. His latest
book is The Torah Revolution (Jewish Lights).

I think with two long lovely names something short is good. I like Ruth the best of the suggestions, Reese and Rae are OK, I might suggest Rue.
Ruby might be good because the red color makes me think of the flag and fireworks, although I guess Felicity Ruby is a little rhyme-y. But I don't think it's bad. Felicity Ruby Elizabeth. Red? Reed? Rufina? Getting bold there, and Rufina is long and clunky, but I think all of those allude to red (you can check though, besides Red : D).

The 'Are You Seeing Me?' Chapter No One Is Seeing

Australian literary legend (and good friend), Nick Earls, recently blogged a section of his marvellous 2014 novel, Analogue Men, that was binned during editing. Whilst enjoying this tasty morsel trimmed from the published main meal, I thought: "Let's cook up some leftovers, too!" In Are You Seeing Me?, I had one I'd prepared earlier.
Much earlier.
Pasted below is a long-removed, never-read, never-seen-apart-from-a-select-few section of AYSM. It wasn't surrendered during the publisher's edit or the final draft. It wasn't canned as a condition of the book's contract.
It was cut from the ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT!
And, although I liked the original very much, the cut wasn't unkind. Quite the opposite.
It helped turn a homeless tale into a Random House resident and, ultimately, a Booktopia 2014 Book of the Year.

Since the release of Are You Seeing Me? on August 1, readers outside of Australia and New Zealand have been lamenting their inability to get a hold of it.
Lament no more: just like Just Jeans and Pez in the novel, AYSM is coming to Canada and the US of A!
Renowned West Coast publisher, Orca, has acquired AYSM's North American rights. The book is targeted for release in Fall 2015 and will hit the shelves in hardback.

Are You Seeing Me? is on the shelves and the initial response has been terrific. Readers have shared their experiences of laughing and crying and wishing earnestly and thinking differently and, when all was said and done, not wanting to let go.
A major reason for this response has been Perry Richter. The young man with the "brain condition" seems to be touching hearts and souls in a big way. I'm delighted by this – in the character's simple eloquence and careful observance, there are lessons for all of us, his author included.
So, as both an early thank you to AYSM's readers and a brief foray into the beautiful mind of a special person, here is Perry's "No Lie" guide to living a good life in an unstable world:

My kitchen needs such an update .....
This house was built in 1920 . I lived in a "shack" and my best friend sold me this house that she had lived in for 18 years. ( CHEAP ! ) Long & HAPPY story ...*smile* !
The design of this house is a space waster . My kitchen especially . Do you know of any way that I can get someone in here to look at it and not try and sell me a zillion dollars worth of improvements ? Who would I call ?
Right now -- I can't afford much .........(after plumbing problems & toilet problems ) IS there a website ? I don't suppose so . Have you got any tricks up your sleeve ?
Do you have a Habit Restore store where you live (actually I just checked, you have 8). I volunteer there and we have contractors and handymen (women) who show up daily to shop. We also have many who volunteer services and I consider them really good people. Usually know them well, the store may be able to guide you to a couple.
Also, consider the options of buying from Restore, lots of new/used which can save you a ton of cash in fixing anything.
I suggest going there just to see what they have, a lot of it will surprise you and give some ideas. So many kitchens are being remodeled right now we have everything (full/complete kitchens), and half is brand new along or last years trend. Am amazed at the beautiful kitchens people are tearing out to keep up with trends.
We also get overruns, last years models from the big box stores (lighting, cabinets, counters, fixtures) for kitchens/baths and just recently discontinued brand name paint at $5 a gallon.
Go to the link below and enter your zip code. Then click on the nearest Habitat, then their Restore link.
Here is a link that might be useful: Restore
Have fun and just a heads up though. Not all of the Restore stores are alike, they may be small or as big as an HD. Ours is huge and contains a ton of inventory, but the two others up north are much smaller. If the one near you is short of your expectations, check the other stores. And if they don't have what you want, go back in a few days. We don't know from one day to the next what will be delivered and the best will be sold within hours.
I started volunteering when mentioning to the cashier that every time I'd visit they would have new stuff or something would be gone the next. He said volunteer, you'll see all of it coming in. It is the best volunteer experience I have ever had and love working with all the people. The customers are great too, fun to hear about their ideas and remodels.
Thanks emagineer--I love HFH and just donated a lot before we moved. They were very happy to have the stuff that I was happy to be rid of. Things I just didn't have room for any longer. If you have "gently" used items, please consider donating them to Habitat. I think they're the greatest. If you have furniture, they will pick it up--at least where we lived.
Another good option is Ikea. Their quality compares with mid-range cabinets elsewhere and they've got a cool tool online to help you design your kitchen. You really can get a high end look for little money if you work smartly.
I used the tool to design my new kitchen and am purching the cabinets, sink and countertops in bits and pieces as I can afford them. I've done two sets of wall cabinets and hope to do one wall of base cabinets in the next few months. It's not the fastest or most practical way to do it, but it's working for me and I know I'll wind up with a great kitchen once it's all done.
There's an online community of people who are doing Ikea kitchens who are *really* helpful and will give you good advice on your plans. They're at www.ikeafans.com
Good luck!
Kathy, almost 3 years ago we redid our kitchen..had I known what I know now, I'd have gone with Ikea...If you look at my page, I think there is still a link attached to my kitchen before and afters..We didn't change where anything was really placed..just filled in some space with more cabinets and counter..
Thanks for the thanks. I really hope those who take the chance to try Restore will find great items. I have volunteered in many capacities, but this group is the greatest around and enjoy every minute of being there. We have a lot of retired engineers and Army guys, teachers and those who own the habitat houses volunteering. Once a week the Airforce Academy shows up with a couple dozen to help. Tis a busy place and I love the customers....their creativity, excitement about projects and found deals.
Yesterday we took in boxes and boxes from major hardware stores and a lighting company. Huge brand new chandeliers which wouldn't work in my smaller home....but beautiful iron and brushed nickle.
All goes to a good cause. I didn't know before becoming involved that the owners of these homes are required to add sweat equity and be qualified for a loan. They work as hard as the volunteers to own their homes.
Glad you guys found the ones nearby.

The mission of Vendor Transparency Solutions is to assist our clients in minimizing their exposure to risk and consumer complaints through the development of superior compliance monitoring products, continued education and providing the highest level of risk management.
Vendor Transparency Solutions, LLC (VTS) is the industry leading compliance management system (CMS) tailored to the automotive lending community. Today's regulatory environment requires proper screening of current and potential suppliers that provide financial products and/or services to financial institutions. VTS is the lender driven platform that assures you are contracting with the most compliant service providers.
You probably spend time considering the prices and services provided by potential suppliers, but what about other crucial factors that could pose a threat to your lending institution? Potential liabilities like criminal records, financial troubles, improperly insured suppliers, failure to meet the CFPB compliance standards, or disreputable business relationships cannot always be identified through an in-house procurement process.
Vendor Transparency Solutions, LLC., conducts detailed screening of both potential and current suppliers to provide insight into their background, integrity and financial standing. The VTS web based platform is designed to comprehensively screen and monitor all asset recovery agencies, forwarding companies, skip trace agencies and transportation companies through the use of our two signature products, VTS Professional and VTS Basic. VTS goes beyond the traditional snapshot of a company's level of compliance by providing daily monitoring, compliance tracking and providing our clients with the most robust complaint handling tool in the industry, the VTS Complaint Handling Module.
