No Way Out (The Chocolate Watchband album)

No Way Out is the debut album by the American garage rock band The Chocolate Watchband, and was released in September 1967 on Tower Records (see 1967 in music). It blended both garage and psychedelic rock influences, and was marked by distorted guitar instrumentals that were early examples of protopunk. It features the band's harder-edged interpretations of songs, with only three original compositions. The album was preceded by two non-album singles, "Sweet Young Thing" and "Misty Lane", and track singles, "No Way Out" and "Are You Gonna be There (At the Love-in)". However, none of the singles managed to chart. Like its singles, No Way Out failed to reach the Billboard 200, but it established the group as a popular live act, and later became noted as a garage rock classic.

Background

Recording sessions took place in mid-1967 at American Recording Studios, located in Los Angeles, California, with record producer, Ed Cobb. Progress on the album was rapid, although the percussion, harmonica, and vocals were overdubbed onto the tracks after the initial instrumental recordings were complete. The band held little power in the recording studio as Cobb selected the compositions that appeared on the album. Only the title song, "No Way Out", was an original song written by a Chocolate Watchband member. In all, only four tracks included the whole band, and were released in their intended form. The remaining songs replaced David Aguilar's vocals with session musician Don Bennett and added embellished instrumentals.Music critic Bruce Eder described the material on the album as "highly potent, slashing, exciting, clever pieces of music".

No Way Out (song)

"No Way Out" is a song by the English singer Phil Collins from the Brother Bear film soundtrack.

Production

Two different versions of the song are placed onto the Brother Bear soundtrack. One is 4:18 minutes long and rock-driven, while the other is 2:37 minutes long and a more mellow keyboard-driven version.

Scene

The scene where the song is heard sees Kenai being forced to tell Koda that he killed his mother when he was a human. He is remorseful but Koda looks horrified and runs away in fear.

Critical reception

GenesisNews said the song is a "compact...strong balled" and reminiscent of older Phil Collins songs such as I Wish It Would Rain Down due to its "speed, harmonies and female backing vocals". Allmusic deemed it "forgettable ".

In the context of the film, No Way Out has been highly criticised for drowning out the dialogue in the film's climactic scene with generic pop lyrics.

No Way Out of Texas: In Your House

No Way Out of Texas: In Your House was the twentieth pay-per-view event under the In Your House name produced by the World Wrestling Federation (WWF). It took place on February 15, 1998, at the Compaq Center in Houston, Texas and was presented by Western Union.

It was the first of a series of In Your House events which later became the title of annual pay-per-views, replacing the method at the time of making new names for all events aside from the 'Big Four' (the Royal Rumble, WrestleMania, SummerSlam and the Survivor Series) and King of the Ring. However, because later events did not take place in Texas, it was truncated to No Way Out and would not become a regular feature until 2000.

Shawn Michaels did not appear in the main event as advertised, owing to a severe back injury that resulted in his first retirement after the following month's WrestleMania XIV. He was replaced by Savio Vega.

Background

Due to jealousy over his wife and valet, Sable, receiving all the attention of the audience, Marc Mero sought to annoy the crowd by sending Sable from ringside and instead being accompanied by The Artist Formerly Known as Goldust who first dressed up as Sable and then later, in a nod to the popular song "The Beautiful People", as Marilyn Manson. Metalheads and cross dressers The Headbangers, took exception to this.

Gegé

Admilson Estaline Dias de Barros (born 24 February 1988), known as Gegé, is a Cape Verdean footballer who plays for Portuguese club F.C. Arouca as a central defender.

Club career

Gegé was born in Santiago. He moved to Portugal in 2008, starting in the lower leagues with Sporting Clube de Pombal and C.F. Estrela da Amadora and moving to the second division in June 2010, signing for C.D. Trofense.

After one more season in the second level, with S.C. Covilhã, Gegé moved to the top flight with C.S. Marítimo, initially being assigned to the reserves in division three. He made his debut in Portugal's main category with the Madeirans on 18 August 2013, coming on as a late substitute in a 2–1 home win against S.L. Benfica.

International career

Gegé was called up to the Cape Verde national team for friendlies against Malta and Angola in September 2009, along three other under-21 internationals, but eventually did not play. He gained his first full cap the following year, featuring the full 90 minutes in a 2–1 win over Guinea-Bissau in Lisbon.

1 Girl 5 Gays

1 Girl 5 Gays, sometimes abbreviated as 1g5g, was a Canadian talk show that premiered on October 14, 2009 on MTV Canada. In October 2010, gay-interest sister network Logo picked up the program and started airing it in the United States. Aliya Jasmine Sovani was the host for the first three seasons and part of the fourth. Lauren Collins, known for her role as Paige Michalchuk on Degrassi, replaced Sovani as the host.

Out Magazine described the show as containing "frank, often curse-laced discussions about bareback sex, masturbation and one-night stands", and analogised it with "The View meets Dr. Ruth, only with hot gay men instead of menopausal madams".

Format

In each episode, one female (or "one girl") — Aliya Jasmine Sovani from 2009 to 2013, and Lauren Collins from 2013 to 2014, sits down with five panelists (or "five gays"), usually gay men but occasionally lesbian women, to discuss 20 questions about love and sex. The "five gays" in each episode are a rotating panel, each having differing backgrounds and points of view. The fast-paced discussion explores serious themes as well as lighthearted topics dealing with romance and pleasure.
