Decoding the New Mortgage MarketInsider Secrets for Getting the Best Loan Without Getting Ripped Off David Reed

The housing market is in turmoil, but if there’s a silver lining, it’s the fact thatpurchase prices are at historic lows. Sure, there are still plenty of predatory

lenders waiting to exploit the naïve potential buyer, but those who do theirhomework will be rewarded with a fair price and manageable mortgage terms.

Decoding the New Mortgage Market is a map to finding the best and most real is ticmortgage deals while navigating past potential obstacles and traps. Filled withmoney-saving advice, this practical guide will help prospective buyers understand:How new lending and underwriting rules affect today’s homebuyer • Differentloan types and lending institutions • Credit issues and other qualifying factors •Creative down-payment solutions • How to reduce closing costs and other fees

Because lenders and buyers alike have gotten “burned” in the mortgage crisis,find ing and qualifying for a manageable loan may now be more difficult. Read erswill find that Decoding the New Mortgage Market makes the search both easier andmore fruitful, and that their dreams of home ownership are still within their reach.

DAVID REED (Austin, TX) is the author of many books including Mortgages 101(9780814401668) and Mortgage Confidential (9780814473696). As a senior loanoffi cer, he has closed more than 2,000 mortgage loans. He is a columnist for RealtyTimes and Mortgage Originator magazine.

Training on TrialHow Workplace Learning Must Reinvent Itself to Remain RelevantJim D. Kirkpatrick, Ph.D., and Wendy Kayser Kirkpatrick

While upbeat lingo abounds about “complementing strategic objectives” and “drivingproductivity,” the fact is that most training does not make a sig ni fi cant enough

impact on business results, and when it does, training profes sion als fail to make aconvincing case about the value added to the bottom line. The vaunted “busi nesspartnership model” has yet to be realized—and in tough economic times, when thetraining budget is often the first to be cut, training is on trial for its very existence.

Using a courtroom trial as a metaphor, Training on Trial seeks to get to the truthabout why training fails and puts the business partnership model to work forreal. Readers on both sides of the “courtroom” will learn how to stop viewingtraining as a cost center, and bridge the gulf between what learning functionsdeliver and what business units need to execute their strategies.

A thought-provoking read for trainers and business unit leaders alike, Trainingon Trial provides a new application of the Kirkpatrick Four-’Level EvaluationModel and a multitude of tips and techniques that allow lessons learned to beput into action now.

Why Boys FailSaving Our Sons from an Educational System

That’s Leaving Them BehindRichard Whitmire

The signs and statistics are undeniable: boys are falling be hindin school. Contrary to conventional wisdom, the biggest cul -

prits are not video games, pop culture, or female-dominatedschools biased toward girls. The real problem is that boys havebeen thrust into a bewildering new school envi ron ment thatdemands high-level reading and writing skills long before theyare capable of handling them.

Lacking the ability to compete, boys fall farther and fartherbehind. Eventually, the problem gets pushed into college,where close to 60% of the graduates are women. In a timewhen even cops, construction foremen, and machine opera -tors need post-high school degrees, that’s a problem.

Why Boys Fail takes a hard look at how this ominous realitycame to be, how it has worsened in recent years, and whyattempts to resolve it often devolve into finger-pointing andpolarizing politics.

But the book also shares some good news. Amidst the alarm -ing proof of failure among boys—around the world—there arealso inspiring case studies of schools where something isgoing right. Each has come up with realistic ways to makesure that every student—male and female—has the tools tosucceed in school and later in life. Edu ca tors and parents alikewill take heart in these promising developments, and heedthe book’s call to action—not only to demand solutions butalso to help create them for their own students and children.

RICHARD WHITMIRE (Arlington, VA) is a former editorial writerfor USA Today and President of the National EducationalWriters Asso ci ation. A highly recognized and respected edu ca -tion reporter, his commentaries have been published in TheNew Republic, U.S. News, Politico, Washington Monthly,Chroni cle of Higher Edu cation, and Education Week. Healso appeared on National Public Radio’s Morning Edition todiscuss boy troubles.

Boys are slipping in school at an alarming rate. Here’s why it’s happening—and how to stop it.

Punctuation at WorkSimple Principles for Achieving Clarity and Good StyleRichard Lauchman

In the workplace, good punctuation is much more than a matter of correct -ness. It’s a matter of efficiency. Professionals who aren’t sure how to punc -tuate take more time than necessary to write, as they fret about the manyincon sistent and con tradictory rules they’ve picked up over the years. Goodpunctuation is also a matter of courtesy: In workplace writing, a sentence shouldyield its meaning in stantly, but when punctuation is haphazard, readers need towork to under stand–or guess at–the writer’s intent. Weak punctua tion results intime-wasting con fusion, questions about professionalism, and some times evenserious and cost ly miscommunication.

Without using the jargon of grammar—and providing 18 common sense prin ci -ples to live by—Punctuation at Work shows busy professionals exactly how themarks can be used to make meaning clear and emphasize ideas. All the marks arecovered, with hundreds of examples taken from today’s workplace. From hy -phens and semicolons to brackets and quotation marks...all the way to ellipses(and the eternal struggle between “that” and “which”), this book explains themany ways punctuation makes things plain.

RICHARD LAUCHMAN (Rockville, MD), through his company The Lauchman Group, hasbeen training professionals, in the area of writing, for over 25 years.

Proper punctuation isn’t just for school teachers—it’s for anyone in theworkplace who wants to communicate professionally...and clearly!
