“He was never the same after Chris’s death”: How Linkin Park singer Chester Bennington, 41, hanged himself on birthday of late friend Chris Cornell – despite friends believing he “was in a good place.”

Friends and family of Linkin Park lead singer Chester Bennington are in absolute “shock” over the rock star's apparent suicide as it's revealed they believed he “was in a good place in his life”.
The 41-year-old was found dead in his home in Palos Verdes near Los Angeles shortly before 9am on Thursday.
A Los Angeles County coroner confirmed they were investigating Bennington's death as an apparent suicide but no additional details were available. 
Law enforcement officials say Bennington hanged himself in his bedroom and he was home alone at the time, according to TMZ. He was found upstairs by his housekeeper.
'”Chester was one of the brightest and most talented people on this planet, and he lived life to the fullest,” a close friend told RadarOnline, adding that the Bennington suffered from demons. 
Bennington's suicide came on the day of his late lifelong friend Chris Cornell's birthday. The Soundgarden rocker killed himself in May by hanging. Cornell would have turned 53.
“Chester and Chris were so close, and he was never the same after Chris’s death,” the friend told Radar.
The friend of Bennington's also noted that Cornell's death deeply affected Bennington, who also struggled with “addiction issues”.
“But everyone thought that he had it licked. He seemed to be at a good place in his life. It is just so tragic and there are no words,” the friend told Radar. 
 
His bandmates were said to be blindsided by Chester's suicide with sources telling TMZ they had plans to attend a photo shoot in Hollywood later on Thursday. 
 One Linkin Park band member went to pick him up on Thursday morning but arrived to find police already at his home.
The singer had a history of drug and alcohol abuse. He was married and is survived by his six children from two relationships. 
Chester had flown back to Los Angeles on Wednesday night. He had been spending time in Arizona with his wife Talinda, but she remained behind. 
Chester, as well as Linkin Park guitarist Brad Delson, had performed Leonard Cohen's “Hallelujah” for the crowd of mourners at Cornell's funeral, many of whom were moved to tears. 
Linkin Park was on tour following the release of the band's latest album One More Light. They had a show at New York's Citi Field scheduled for next week with Blink 182. 
They played together for the last time on July 7 in Birmingham, England. 
The band released its newest music video just two hours before news of his death emerged on Thursday. 
Bennington was married to his second wife Talinda, a former Playboy model, for 12 years. He divorced his first wife Samantha Marie Olit in 2005 after nine years of marriage. 
The frontman had been open about his history of substance abuse and admitted in one interview in 2011 that he had once been a “full blown, raging alcoholic”. 
He admitted to smoking pot after his parents divorced when he was 11. The drug use then spiraled into cocaine and meth. 
Bennington had also previously spoken out about being sexually abused as a seven-year-old, saying he had been molested by an older male friend.
“If I think back to when I was really young, to when I was being molested, to when all these horrible things were going on around me, I shudder,” he said in one interview. 
He went to rehab for his drug and alcohol addiction after marrying his second wife and said he really began to change in 2007. 
In a 2011 interview, he said he was sober.
“I don't drink. I choose to be sober now. I have drunk over the last six years, but I just don't want to be that person anymore.” 
Linkin Park's sixth and latest album, One More Light, jumped to the top of the Billboard chart when it was released in May. [...]

GadgetDesigners Push the Limits of Size, Safety
By Brian X. Chen, August 28, 2008

Just as small, fast-moving mammals replaced lumbering
dinosaurs, pocketable gadgets are evolving to fill niches that
larger, deskbound computers can't reach. But as they shrink,
these gadgets are faced with problems mammals face, too,
such as efficiently dissipating heat.

The recent example of Apple's first-generation iPod nanos
causing fires in Japan raises the question of whether
increasingly innovative product designs are impinging on
safety. The nano incident illustrates how risk can increase as
devices decrease in size, says Roger Kay, an analyst at
EndpointTechnologies.

"As [gadgets] get smaller, the tradeoffs become more difficult,
the balance becomes more critical and there's less room for
error," Kay said. "I'm not surprised it's happening to the nano
because that's the small one. You're asking it to do a lot in a
very, very small package and that's pushing the envelope.”

There's no question that industrial designers' jobs have
become much more difficult as the industry demands ever
more powerful and smaller gadgets. With paper-thin
subnotebooks, ultrasmall MP3 players, and pinkie finger-
sized Bluetooth headsets becoming increasingly popular, it's
questionable where exactly designers draw the line between
innovation and safety.

Boeing ____ this week that it ____ successfully ____ a manned airplane powered _____ hydrogen fuel cells.
