  MediaGuardian.co.uk | Media | Remnant will float despite internal row
Remnant Media, the business that bought more than 40 adult titles from Mr Desmond in an £11m deal two years ago, expects to list on Aim over the next month through a reverse takeover of sister company Parkgreen, which will then launch an initial public offering.
Remnant intended to launch the IPO this month alongside the £9m acquisition of a mobile technology company but has delayed the flotation for a further month.
Remnant has had a troubled history and received a bankruptcy petition from Mr Desmond months after he sold his adult titles, which include publications such as Big Ones and Asian Babes, to Mr Robinson.

 MediaGuardian.co.uk | Media | Desmond takes his pound of flesh from porn empire sale
As part of the deal, Remnant had assumed that it would be entitled to receive £850,000 from Richard Desmond's Northern and Shell companies relating to receipts from debtors of the acquired business accrued in January and February, the two trading months immediately preceding the sale on 1 March 2004.
Remnant found itself having to repay £500,000 a fortnight after the deal was completed.
The sales and purchase ledgers went astray at some time during the change of ownership transition period and the Remnant management was concerned that up to £50,000 of invoices had gone missing and that the company may have a £100,000 liability to its printers.

 Telegraph | Money
Remnant Media, the company that last week paid almost £20m to buy the pornographic magazine interests of Richard Desmond, the owner of the Daily and Sunday Express titles, is planning to float on the Aim market.
Remnant Media is led by Simon Robinson, a former executive of Trinity Mirror, the newspaper publisher, who has also advised Desmond on possible acquisitions in the past.
The float of Remnant could also provide a quick return for the Bank of Ireland, which is understood to have played a significant role in the financing of the acquisition.

 Secure Deletion of Data from Magnetic and Solid-State Memory
The media coercivity also affects the width of the write and erase bands, with their width dropping as the coercivity increases (this is one of the explanations for the ever-increasing coercivity of newer, higher-density drives).
For typical disk drive media, the short-term field needed to flip enough of the magnetic domains to be useful in recording a signal is about 1/3 higher than the coercivity of the media (the exact figure varies with different media types) [17].
The dependence of media coercivity on temperature can affect overwrite capability if the data was initially recorded at a temperature where the coercivity was low (so that the recorded pattern penetrated deep into the media), but must be overwritten at a temperature where the coercivity is relatively high.

However, ex-Highbury staff at Hotdog, Front and DVD World, bought by SMD Publishing, a spin-off of Attitude publisher Remnant Media, are believed to be safe in their roles.
It is thought that Remnant's other lifestyle titles, including Attitude, will be transferred to SMD as a means of keeping them separate from the rest of the company's magazines, which consist mainly of pornography titles.
And at Highbury's profitable hobby titles, bought by Encanta Media, all 45 staff have been transferred to the new company and it is thought all are likely to keep their positions.

After the initial migration of Slavic speakers that pushed Germans behind the Elbe and replaced large areas of indigenous languages in the Balkans, German speakers moved steadily east until World War II, after which the Russians expelled many Germans and returned the boundary to about where it was in the 12th century.
Between the northern and southern Slavs, however, is a Romance speaking remnant in the Balkans, Romania, and the Hungarians, who were the only steppe people to first invade Europe but then settle down and even retain their linguistic identity, despite their country often being called after the earlier and unrelated Huns.
This is a remnant of the Aghlabid conquest of Sicily, although now the Maltese have long been Catholic, and the language is written, of course, in the Latin alphabet.

The success of the Advertising.com acquisition by AOL was an early indicator of the tremendous synergies in combining an ad network with advanced targeting technologies and the existing reach of a major media company.
