| Dulsco Event Equipment Rental boosts inventory to cater to high volume ...
Dulsco's Event Equipment Rental division has already reported a surge in demand for its broad range of equipment as many of its clients are organizing Ramadan tents, majlis setups, iftar dinners and other related activities. 'Ramadan is an exciting time for Dulsco's Event Equipment Rental division as the number of outdoor and indoor activities significantly increases. This increase means that there has also been an increase in demand for all types of equipment, and Dulsco is pleased to offer our services to ensure the success of these meaningful gatherings,' said Satnam Grover, Business Development Manager at Dulsco's Hospitality Department. 'Many of the groups and individuals organizing these events prefer to rent the equipment because of various advantages, such as guaranteed high performance and professional staff assistance, which helps them to concentrate on the event itself rather than worrying about how to operate the equipment,' added Bala Kumar, General Manager at Dulsco's HR Solutions.
Kazaa settles for $100m
The record industry has reached a legal settlement with Kazaa, the peer-to-peer file-sharing service that has been considered a major contributor to piracy. Under the terms of the settlement, Sharman Networks, Kazaa's Australian-based owner, will pay the world's four major music companies - Universal Music, Sony BMG, EMI and Warner Music - more than $100m in damages. In addition, Kazaa has agreed to restrict the sharing of copyrighted material on its network. "Kazaa was an international engine of copyright theft which damaged the whole music sector and hampered our industry's efforts to grow a legitimate digital business," said John Kennedy, head of the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI). "It has paid a heavy price for its past activities. At the same time Kazaa will now be making a transition to a legal model and converting a powerful distribution technology to legitimate use." The music industry has reached settlements with a number of file-sharing services following the Supreme Court's landmark ruling last year in the MGM-Grokster case.
Travel Troubleshooter: JetBlue delay affects hotel package
A look at the terms and conditions on JetBlue's Web site suggests JetBlue isn't responsible for refunding the hotel portion of your vacation. "JetBlue is acting solely as an intermediary between travel suppliers and consumers to facilitate the negotiation, booking of, and payment for vacation package accommodations and services to be provided by travel suppliers directly to consumers," it says. "Unused package components may not be exchanged, transferred or refunded." That also means that Worldwide Travel Exchange is well within its rights to keep your money. Technically, you were what's called a "no-show" and aren't entitled to anything. But wait. JetBlue, from whose site you bought the hotel, canceled your flight after its operational meltdown last Valentine's Day.
