Bill Hader on leaving 'SNL': Don't expect a Stefon movie
By Tim Kenneally
LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - Years of staying up late on Saturday nights to make the nation laugh have apparently left Bill Hader a little sleep-deprived.
Hader, who announced earlier this week that he's leaving "Saturday Night Live" after eight seasons when the show wraps its current season, revealed his plans for the future in an interview with GQ. From the sound of things, he's scheduled some nap time for himself.
"Sleep," Hader said when asked about his post-"SNL" plans. "Spending time with my family. A new set of concerns. Heading back to L.A. I met my wife in California and lived out there before this. We have good friends out there."
Unfortunately, when Hader rises from his slumber, fans shouldn't expect him to take on a big-screen version of one of his most beloved characters, Weekend Update city correspondent Stefon.
"There's no emotional through line," Hader said of the possibility of bringing Stefon to a theater near you. "Sometimes people say to me, 'I want a Stefon movie' and I'm like, you think you want a Stefon movie but then you'll see the poster for it and think: 'Wait, I don't want this.'"
Hader also took time to reflect on his soon-to-be-ex colleague Seth Meyers, who'll assume hosting duties on NBC's "Late Night" from Jimmy Fallon next year, after Fallon moves over to "The Tonight Show" to take over for Jay Leno.
"When I heard the news I started clapping - you know, just by myself, clapping," Hader said. "It's amazing. He is the perfect fit. I've watched as 'SNL' hosts come into our office and we pitch them ideas and Seth is always at ease with them. He's naturally and genuinely curious about people. And he really is such a funny writer. I've learned more from him about sketch comedy than probably anybody."
Hader wraps up his "SNL" run this Saturday on the series' season finale, with Ben Affleck hosting and Kanye West serving as musical guest.

Porsche shows 918 Spyder in production form
Porsche isn't about to let the LaFerrari steal the hybrid spotlight: it just unveiled the finished design of the 918 Spyder, which is expected to ship as a 2015 model. The look won't shock anyone keeping up with their spy videos, although Porsche's formal unveiling helps firm up the specifications that customers will get if they've dutifully shelled out $845,000. The performance is even more intimidating than it was in 2011, we know that much: there's 887HP of combined V8 and plug-in electric power, a 0-62MPH time of 2.8 seconds and up to 18 miles of gas-free driving. About the only disappointment (price notwithstanding) is the lack of options beyond a weight reduction package. We doubt many Spyder buyers will complain when they can even outrace a 911 GT3.

TiVo brings 'What to Watch Now' feature to its iPad app
TiVo, the company that made its fortune by making you forget about live television, is now attempting to revamp the traditional TV guide with a new content-discovery feature for its iPad app. The feature, called "What to Watch Now," is similar in concept to TiVo's existing Discovery Bar, though the layout is different. Here, you get seven columns of tiles showing what's currently airing or what you've previously recorded. So whether you're in the mood for sports, prime time, movies, kids programming or whatever happens to be playing on your favorite channel, you're a tap away from watching it on your TV -- or directly on the iPad if you have a TiVo Stream. And of course you don't have to watch it right now; you can just as easily schedule a recording or season pass and watch it later.
The new feature does seem handy, but configurable options are minimal. Basically, you're limited to rearranging the columns into a different order and filtering out specific sports you have little interest in -- no, you can't remove sports completely. Speaking of sports, thanks to TiVo's partnership with Thuuz, some sporting event tiles have a number between zero and a 100 assigned to them to help draw your attention to the most exciting matches currently in play. The new feature is available immediately via the App Store as an update to the existing TiVo application.

Head of Fort Campbell harassment program arrested
FORT CAMPBELL, Ky. (AP) ? The manager of the sexual harassment and assault response program at Fort Campbell, Ky., was arrested in a domestic dispute and relieved of his post, authorities said Thursday.
Lt. Col. Darin Haas (HAHZ') turned himself in to police in Clarksville, Tenn., late Wednesday on charges of violating an order of protection, and stalking, authorities said Thursday.
Master Sgt. Pete Mayes, a spokesman for the massive Army post on the Tennessee-Kentucky line, said Haas was immediately removed as manager of a program meant to prevent sexual harassment and assault and encourage equal opportunity.
Haas, 42, and his ex-wife have orders of protection against each other, Mayes said. The two are involved in a child custody fight, Clarksville Police Sgt. Chuck Gill said.
His ex-wife told police he repeatedly contacted her Wednesday night despite the protective order, Gill said.
Haas was held for a required 12 hours and released.
"The ongoing investigation is to determine whether or not he violated the actual provisions of the Order of Protection that applies to him," Mayes said in a news release. But based on the allegations, the release continued, Haas was removed from his post as program manager.
Haas is due to retire from the Army soon and his replacement will assume duties right away, Mayes said. Because the investigation is being handled by civilian law enforcement, Fort Campbell will await the results before taking any further action, Mayes said.
A working phone number for Haas could not immediately be found Thursday evening, and he did not immediately respond to a message sent through his Facebook page.
Allegations of sexual assault in the military have triggered outrage from local commanders to Capitol Hill and the Oval Office. Last week, an Air Force officer who headed a sexual assault prevention office was himself arrested on charges of groping a woman in a Northern Virginia parking lot.
There is no indication from police or the military that Haas' arrest involved allegations of sexual impropriety.
President Barack Obama pledged Thursday to "leave no stone unturned" in the effort to halt sexual abuse, which he said undermines the trust the military needs to be effective.

Idaho man heads to court after terrorism arrest
BOISE, Idaho (AP) ? An Uzbekistan national living in Idaho has been arrested on federal charges that he gave support, cash and other resources to help a recognized terrorist group in his home country plan a terrorist attack.
Fazliddin Kurbanov, 30, is expected to make his first appearance in U.S. District Court Friday morning, one day after federal agents arrested him during a raid of his small Boise apartment.
Kurbanov was arrested after an extensive investigation into his activities in Idaho and Utah late last year and this year. A federal grand jury indictment charges Kurbanov with one count of conspiracy to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization, and one count of conspiracy to provide material support to terrorists and possession of an unregistered explosive device.
A separate federal grand jury in Utah also returned an indictment charging Kurbanov with distributing information about explosives, bombs and weapons of mass destruction.
Wendy Olson, the U.S. attorney in Idaho, said Kurbanov is the only person charged, and any potential threat was contained by his arrest.
"He was closely monitored during the course of the investigation," she said. "The investigation has been underway for some time."
Olson declined to share any specifics of Kurbanov's alleged activities, including whether any potential terrorist threat or targets were domestic or abroad.
A statement from the U.S. attorney's office said Kurbanov is in the United States legally, but Olson declined to give specific details about his immigration status.
It was unclear when he moved to Idaho or the extent of his activities in Utah. An Idaho telephone number registered to Kurbanov has been disconnected.
The Idaho indictment alleges that between August 2012 and May 2013, Kurbanov knowingly conspired with others to provide support and resources, including computer software and money, to the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan, which the U.S. has identified as a terrorist organization. The group's purpose is to overthrow the government of Uzbekistan, said David B. Barlow, U.S. attorney in Utah.
The alleged co-conspirators were not named.
In count two, the indictment alleges Kurbanov provided material support to terrorists, knowing that the help was to be used in preparation for a plot involving the use of a weapon of mass destruction.
The indictment also alleges that on Nov. 15, 2012, Kurbanov possessed an explosive device, consisting of a series of parts intended to be converted into a bomb. Those parts included a hollow hand grenade, a hobby fuse, aluminum powder, potassium nitrate and sulfur.
Meanwhile, in Utah, federal investigators said that for a 10-day period in January 2013, Kurbanov taught and demonstrated how to make an "explosive, destructive device, and weapon of mass destruction."
The grand jury alleges that Kurbanov provided written recipes for how to make improvised explosive devices and went on instructional shopping trips in Utah showing what items are necessary to buy to make the devices, Barlow said. Kurbanov also showed Internet videos on the topic, Barlow said.
The prosecutor declined to say whom Kurbanov took on the shopping trips in Utah but said that information will come out as the case moves through the courts.
The indictment from Utah also alleges that Kurbanov intended that the videos, recipes, instructions and shopping trips be used to make an explosive device for the "bombings of a place of public use, public transportation system, and infrastructure facility."
The arrest, Barlow said, shows that "there is no priority that is more important than the protection of the public and the prevention and disruption of alleged terrorist activities ? wherever they might occur."
According to Idaho's court system, Kurbanov has no criminal convictions but was ticketed for speeding violations twice in 2012 ? once in October, when he paid a $90 fine, and another instance in May when he paid $85.

Elysium-Review - Femalefirst
Artist: Elysium
Debut EP: In Valour
Rating: 4/5
Out Now
Elysium are an up-coming band from Watford who have released a new EP, ?In Valour?. The four-some formed in late 2012, after previously being in the same band, ?Times Like These.?? The band consists of Shaun Taylor who plays the rhythm guitar and vocals, Harley Jones who also sings on the tracks as well as playing lead guitar, Ollie Reeve plays the bass guitar and vocals and Lewis Crawley is on drums.
The first track In Valour, begins with an electrifying guitar instrumental and then kicks in with roaring vocals and impressive drumming skills which instantly create the vibe of the band. It continues with hard-core guitar reefs and adds to the effect of the band?s sound.
I?m a thief but I keep what I steal is the most hardcore of all 4 tracks. The track is fast paced with screaming vocals and booming instruments, this track is not for the faint-hearted but definitely lives up to the bands essence. It will get you rocking your heart out and with the lyrics being just about easy enough to make out, you will be singing or screaming along too.
Scars is another gritty, intense song that keeps the rocky feel throughout the whole of the EP. The song focuses more on the vocals which captivates you as a listener and works well with the sound and the instruments that are used. The vocals of the band are very harsh yet gritty and the delivery of the lyrics is what the songs needs to give them that little edge. The EP is definitely for people who prefer hard rock music and provides something meaty for the listener to get to grips with.
The last song on the EP, Boy, begins with a slow-paced introduction which instantly smashes into a hardcore fast-paced instrumental. With the EP?s punchy melodies and exceptional vocals the chsoen songs are ideal for the bands style.
It?s a must for all you lovers of rock music- you won?t be disappointed!
