No Place is a small village near the town of Stanley in County Durham, England, east of Stanley and west of Beamish. Situated to the south of the A693, it is home to an award-winning real ale pub, the Beamish Mary Inn (dating from 1897 and originally known as the Red Robin), and lies near the Beamish Mary coal pit. The local church is known as the "Tin Chapel".
The origins of the village's unusual name are uncertain; however, theories include a shortening of "North Place", "Near Place", or "Nigh Place", or that the original houses of the village stood on a boundary between two parishes, neither of which would accept the village. The village originally consisted of four terraced houses, known as No Place. In 1937, residents of the terrace of houses to the north, known as Co-operative Villas, demolished these houses, but took on the name for their own village.Derwentside Council tried to change the name of the village to Co-operative Villas in 1983; however, they met with strong protests from local residents at the removal of all signs pointing to No Place. Today the signs say both No Place and (at the request of some residents) Co-operative Villas.

No Place to Hide: Edward Snowden, the NSA, and the U.S. Surveillance State is a 2014 non-fiction book by American investigative journalist Glenn Greenwald. It was first published on May 13, 2014 through Metropolitan Books and details Greenwald's role in the global surveillance disclosures as revealed by the former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden. The documents from the Snowden archive cited in the book are freely available online.
The book consists of five chapters; Contact, Ten Days in Hong Kong, Collect It All, The Harm of Surveillance and the Fourth Estate, plus an introduction and an epilogue. In the introduction Greenwald discusses how his background as a blogger on surveillance and wiretapping by the American government attracted Edward Snowden and the nature, legality, and evolution of such practices in the United States. Greenwald concludes by discussing how a global surveillance network has been created with the assistance of technology companies and the unique role of the internet in human history as a facilitator of such surveillance.
No Place to Hide is a 1993 American detective film written and directed by Richard Danus and starring Kris Kristofferson. The film was notable for an early appearance by Drew Barrymore in the central role of a murdered ballerina (Lydie Denier)'s younger sister.
The film was reamed by critics, particularly Richard Harrington of the Washington Post: "No Place to Hide is so bad it's not even any good. No guilty pleasures are to be found in its preposterously clumsy plot, or in the limp performance of Kris Kristofferson; someone check his pulse. Even Drew Barrymore regresses from the promise of Guncrazy by being forced to play a petulant 14-year-old caught up in a web of murder and intrigue. For both actors, this film is a triumph of underachievement...The laconic Kristofferson's acting range is measured between squinting eyes and a grinding jaw...The gradually-developing bond between Kris and Drew is excruciatingly detailed in the latter's voiced-over diary entries. It's all very embarrassing...Director Richard Danus, who beats his own script to a pulp, has no idea where to take any of this; loose plot threads abound. The inevitable revelation of a secret society run by Dirty Harry-type elitists is simply ridiculous; if ever a film needed a Satanic subplot, it's this one. In any number of confrontations with Drew's would-be-killer (who looks and acts suspiciously like The Shadow), Kristofferson tells Barrymore to 'Run, run...! Get out of here!' Take those as subliminal messages."

Well he stepped outside his door
And listened to the air,
The rain was falling all around,
And he knew that she was near.
She'd travelled many miles to
See him with everything to gain.
And he had nothing left to lose,
Just his loneliness and pain.
He took her bags into the bedroom,
Where all was cut and dried.
Her eyes were green when she was sad
And felt a little blue inside.
He lit his smoke up on a candle,
And somewhere a sailor died.
She said she didn't mind the smell,
And looked away as he blew the smoke aside.
But whoa, she was pretty
When she had no place to,
Whoa, she was pretty
When she had no place to,
Whoa, she was pretty
When she had no place to hide.
She thought about her family and friends,
And hoped that she would see them soon again.
She lay awake now in the darkness,
Where an old piano glistened in the night.
He dreamt he found a little boat
