(AP) ? Nick Cannon has been transferred to a Los Angeles hospital to continue treatment for "mild kidney failure."

His representative says the 31-year-old Cannon was moved Wednesday after receiving treatment in Aspen, Colorado, where the TV personality and his wife, Mariah Carey, had been vacationing.

Carey has been by Cannon's side. Earlier this week, she tweeted that he is suffering from "mild kidney failure" and posted a photo on her website of the couple as they lay in a hospital bed in Aspen.

She is asking fans to "Please keep Nick in your thoughts."

Cannon's representative had no further details Thursday about his condition.

Hope for family of only US soldier held by Taliban

The family of the only U.S. soldier held by the Taliban expressed the hope he would be released "as soon as possible" following a possible deal to allow insurgents to open an office in Qatar.

The office plan is designed to enable the holding of peace talks with the United States.

Bowe Bergdahl, a 25-year-old Army sergeant from Hailey, Idaho, was taken prisoner June 30, 2009, in Afghanistan.

His parents, Bob and Jani Bergdahl, released a statement Wednesday through the Idaho National Guard expressing hope that their son would be returned home soon.

"Our only son, Bowe Bergdahl, has been held captive for two and a half years. We hope he will be released as soon as possible. We know that serious discussions among diplomats are the most likely way to make this happen, and for Bowe to be returned safely to us, his family," it added.

The Taliban announced Tuesday that they had reached a preliminary understanding to open the representative office in Qatar, marking an unprecedented step toward peace negotiations.

Went missing
Bergdahl, of Hailey, Idaho, was a member of the 1st Battalion of the 501st Parachute Infantry Regiment in Afghanistan when he went missing in June 2009. Three days later, the U.S. military declared him captured by the Taliban.

In May 2011, Robert Bergdahl posted an online appeal asking the government of Pakistan and its armed forces to help free his son.

In July, the NATO security force in Afghanistan said U.S. and NATO forces had made bringing Bergdahl home a top priority.

On Tuesday, the Afghan Taliban also asked for the release of prisoners held at the U.S. military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

The Qatar office is seen by Western and Afghan officials as a crucial step to moving forward with secretive attempts to reach a negotiated end to a decade of war.

The Taliban statement pointedly made no mention of the Kabul government, set up after a U.S.-led invasion in 2001 ousted the Taliban from power.

Afghan President Hamid Karzai said on Wednesday that Afghanistan agreed with U.S. efforts to talk with the Taliban, and the plan to open an office in Qatar, because they could prevent further conflict and the deaths of innocent civilians.

The branch of the Taliban believed to be holding Bergdahl operates on the Afghanistan-Pakistan border and may be based in tribal lands in Pakistan, according to reports by the U.S. Department of Defense.

The Associated Press and Reuters contributed to this report.

Woodford in Japan to decide bid to run Olympus: aide

TOKYO | Wed Jan 4, 2012 11:33pm EST

TOKYO (Reuters) - The former CEO of Japan's disgraced Olympus Corp, Briton Michael Woodford, returned to Japan on Thursday where he said he will decide the future of his bid to return to his old post.

Woodford, who was fired as chief executive in October and blew the whistle on a $1.7 billion accounting scandal, faces long odds in his battle with current management over future leadership of the Japanese maker of medical devices and cameras.

"There are several people I want to see to establish the way forward," Woodford said in footage carried by TV Tokyo as he arrived at the capital's Narita Airport.

Asked whether he would withdraw his bid to return to Olympus' top job, he said: "At the moment, I have made no decisions at all, I need to talk to many people. I will tell everyone tomorrow."

Woodford aide Waku Miller told Reuters the ex-CEO might give a news conference on Friday at 3 p.m. (0600 GMT), but said he had not yet made up his mind whether to abandon his campaign.

Olympus' lenders are expected to back existing managers with a plan to bring in a new domestic investor, possibly a rival such as Fujifilm Holdings Corp, to pump more capital into the firm as it tries to put the scandal behind it, according to bankers familiar with lenders' thinking.

The Nikkei business daily has reported that Olympus may issue about 100 billion yen in new preferred shares, with Sony Corp and Fujifilm seen as possible buyers.

Woodford's campaign to return to Olympus has also been hobbled by an inability to spark a groundswell of support among rank-and-file employees.

His duties as president - a post he held from April - required him to spend the bulk of his time overseas where the company makes most of its revenue, an employee who described himself as a middle manager told Reuters in December on condition he not be identified.

"Few people had spoken to him and many had never seen him," said the Olympus manager, who supports Woodford's return as CEO.

Several of Olympus' large foreign shareholders, however, have backed his return.

"I think I have enough support from shareholders. That's not the issue," Woodford said on Thursday. "There are many options but again, until I have these meetings, I can't conclude."

"It's the New Year so it's a good time to make decisions."

Olympus is the target of joint investigations by police, prosecutors and securities regulators, who conducted raids on company offices and former executives' homes late last month.

But the focus so far has been limited to a handful of former senior executives believed to have masterminded schemes that, with the help of investment bankers, hid investment losses dating back to the 1990s.

Olympus' shares, while down 60 percent since the scandal, have stabilized in recent weeks as the market grew hopeful that the company could avoid a delisting of its shares over the scandal. Olympus stock was down 0.1 percent at 987 yen at the midday break on Thursday.
