'American Idol' Contender David Cook's Brother, Who Is Battling Cancer, Will Attend Show This Week
According to the paper, Adam, leaning on a cane, waved to friends and family before embarking on the improbable trip, which almost didn't happen when doctors grounded the lawyer's flight earlier in the week after determining that he could not fly commercially due to his condition. He is undergoing chemotherapy for his second diagnosis of brain cancer, which has spread to his spine. Luckily for Adam, who practiced law in Terre Haute until his condition worsened, his friends and a local councilman rallied behind him and arranged for an all-expenses-paid flight on a chartered medical jet, with a flight medic and flight nurse onboard to make sure he is stable. A local radio station also threw in a paid stay in a hotel just across the street from the Los Angeles studio where the "Idol" finalists perform.
The total cost of the flight and medical assistance is nearly $80,000.
"Idol" contender David, 25, is excited about his brother coming, according to Adam's wife, Kendra Cook. "I don't know what he'll be singing," she told the paper, "we've just talked about dinner and hanging out."
The couple had two days to arrange childcare for their kids, ages 5 and 6, and Kendra said the rapid way everything came together was worth it. "It has been an absolute whirlwind," she told the paper. "I'm so thrilled for Adam. ... It's been an awesome dream, an awesome goal, an awesome thought."
While a family friend said Adam was hoping the trip would not turn into a "circus," Kendra said her husband was sick in bed for several days the week prior to learning about the journey and that "the excitement of seeing his spirits lifted so high has been wonderful."
Kendra also told Terre Haute station WTHI that the Cook brothers have been in constant contact via phone and text message in the lead-up to their reunion. A spokesperson for "Idol" had no comment at press time.
David was rushed to a Los Angeles hospital on April 1 after experiencing heart palpitations and high blood pressure. At the time, an unnamed "Idol" executive reportedly told TMZ that the singer had been under extra stress that week because his brother had suffered a setback in his battle against cancer.

Switzerland's Samael has evolved from a mine run bleak alloy band into one of Europe's virtually original and innovational metallic element bands by introducing industrial, gothic, and infinite other influences into their extreme sound.
Formed in the late '80s by Vorphalack (guitars/vocals), Xytras (drums/keyboards), and bassist Masmiseim, Samael was heavily influenced by first-generation bleak alloy bands such as England's Venom and Swiss compatriots Celtic Frost. An super raw, self-financed EP called Medieval Prophecy caught the attention of French-based Osmose Records, which agreed to press release the band's first base full-length record album, Worship Him, in 1991. The record's poor production values and unremarkable black alloy did little for the isthmus, just the following year's much more mature Blood Ritual was another chronicle. The album found Samael incorporating keyboards and different guitar textures to their good, and a permanent keyboard player (Rodolphe H.) was drafted presently after.
After sign language with the Century Media mark, the stria returned to the studio with noted black alloy manufacturer Waldemar Sorychta (noted for his crop with Tiamat) to record 1994's impressive Ceremonial occasion of Opposites. Samael began to find their unique voice on this record, combine swirling keyboard melodies with their brutal guitar attempt to create what they called "grisly operettas." The bet were raised even higher on 1996's groundbreaking ceremony Passage, which saw Xytras (today plainly Xy) pickings over keyboard duties as well as programing all his drum tracks. This unlawful mix of opprobrious metallic element savagery and synthesizers resulted in one of the decade's most original and extreme alloy releases, and was followed by blanket touring (including the band's first American shows). After producing deuce albums by labelmates Rotting Christ, Xy reconvened the group to criminal record 1999's Eternal, with extra guitar player Kaos. The album contains even bolder experiments with applied science and confirmed the band's position as forerunners in their field.

Stipe explained that each object represented a crucial, transitional moment: "The radio alarm clock changed forever the fragile state between sleeping and waking, allowing you to wake to your favourite radio station." The Polaroid brought about a revolution in photography, while tapes "altered forever the influence of radio as the individual became their own disc jockey."

Larry King - King Denies Wife Suffers From Anorexia
LATEST: U.S. talk show host LARRY KING has slammed reports his actress wife SHAWN is battling anorexia.
Shawn Southwick King, 48 - who has been married to the 74-year-old TV veteran for 10 years - was admitted to rehab on Tuesday (24Jun08) suffering from an addiction to painkillers.

But a spokesperson for Larry King has denied reports she suffers from depression or anxiety, adding: "She is not anorexic. Nor has she been diagnosed as depressed. She has taken medications because of her migraine headaches that she's had since she was a young girl.
"She developed a dependency on painkillers as a result of being prescribed medication for the migraines."

Company B was a dance pour down triple put together by Miami-based manufacturer Ish Ledesma. Ledesma had already establish pop succeeder fronting Foxy in the '70s and Oxo in the '80s. Consisting of Lori L., Lezlee Livrano, and Susan Johnson, the trio, adorned with white River wigs and clad in spicy leather, number 1 made waves with the exclusive "Fascinated," which took clubs by ramp in 1986. It crossed all over to the pop charts in the early months of 1987, mounting into the Top 30. Follow-up singles "Full Circle," "Perfect Lover," and "Jam on Me" failed to equal that mainstream success, merely they were gild hits. All were contained on their self-titled album, which briefly charted late that summertime. Livrano and Johnson leftfield earlier recording a arcsecond record album and were replaced by Donna Huntley and Julie Marie. A sophomore effort, Gotta Dance, elicited little response outside the gild world and the end of their output would be repackagings of their hits.
