Abstract
This case is a relatively straightforward exercise in valuing a potential acquisition target. The case affords students an opportunity to use both discounted cash flow and multiples in their analyses. In addition, at the instructor's discretion, students can do a simple valuation of an option contract and analyze currency choice in a debt issue. The latter two objectives arise if the case is used as an examination. Case Exhibit 1 poses the relevant questions for student preparation.

Abstract
In June 2002 the Government issued long‐awaited guidance on the use of restrictive physical interventions. The need for the guidance was recognised in the White Paper, Valuing People, and its publication is anticipated in both the recently published National Care Standards and the 1996 Education Act. It represents a clear and unambiguous commitment by government departments to work together to improve practice across a range of services for adults and children with learning disabilities and autistic spectrum disorders, and for pupils with a range of special educational needs. The guidance is particularly addressed to staff working with adults and children with learning disabilities (including those with autistic spectrum disorders) and to those in special school settings responsible for pupils with severe behavioural difficulties associated with learning difficulties and/or autistic spectrum disorders. It will also be relevant to staff in schools which make provision for pupils with severe emotional and behavioural difficulties. This article describes the development of the guidance, the areas of practice it covers and its implications for managers, professionals, staff working directly with service users and family carers. It will do this by attempting to answer six questions. Why do we need new guidance on the use of restrictive physical interventions? Who will be affected by the guidance? How was the guidance developed? What does the guidance say? What needs to be done to implement the guidance? What still needs to be done?

Abstract
Presents the conclusions of Harris Interactive’s landmark poll of youth marketers, which reveals the industry’s views on complex issues like the ethics of selling to children, advertising in schools, violent content in the media, child nutrition and obesity. Outlines the method used, which consisted of 878 online interviews, classifying respondents into youth marketing, advertising and PR, media, non‐profit organisations, market research, and educational institutions. Identifies characteristics of each group over their views about children as consumers, ethics, role models, rating systems for movies and shows, and health. Concludes that those working in youth fields tend to defend their own organisation although they often criticise the industry as a whole.

Abstract
This paper considers good practice in the use of physical interventions. It describes work undertaken to establish a consensus around policy principles in relation the use of personal restraints in response to violent behaviour by adults and children with a learning disability or autism. It highlights the benefits of clear local and national policies and identifies work required to promote good practice.
