www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/culture/2017/may/05/ukraine-bans-steven-seagal-national-security-russian-citizenship Security service says it has forbidden Seagal entry into country for five years, after actor received Russian citizenship Ukraine has banned American action movie star Steven Seagal as a national security threat, making him the latest of several cultural figures to be blacklisted. The Ukrainian security service said it had forbidden Seagal entry to the country for five years, in a letter published by the news site Apostrophe. The service’s press secretary later confirmed the ban to other media. Vladimir Putin presents Steven Seagal with Russian passport The letter said such a decision is made when a person has “committed socially dangerous actions … that contradict the interests of maintaining Ukraine’s security”. The move comes after the actor received citizenship in Russia, which has backed separatists in a simmering conflict in eastern Ukraine. President Vladimir Putin handed Seagal a Russian passport and told him he hoped their “personal relationship will remain and continue” during a meeting in the Kremlin last year. Ukraine previously banned Russia’s entry to the Eurovision song contest that Kiev is hosting next week. Seagal, the star of the 1992 hit Under Siege as well as straight-to-video films such as Kill Switch, Out for a Kill and Driven to Kill, has had a long love affair with the former Soviet Union. He has eaten carrots with “Europe’s last dictator” Alexander Lukashenko in Belarus, ridden a horse in a suit of armour at the Nomad Games in Kyrgyzstan and taken part in a traditional dance while visiting Chechnya strongman Ramzan Kadyrov. But Seagal’s outspoken support for Putin and his policies have earned the enmity of the Ukrainian authorities. The actor called Russia’s 2014 annexation of Crimea from Ukraine “very reasonable”. He later played with his blues band at a concert in Crimea put on by a pro-Putin biker club, with the flag of eastern Ukraine separatists flying onstage. In 2015, Seagal was included in a proposed blacklist of foreign cultural figures who “speak out in support of violating the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine” along with French actor Gérard Depardieu and many Russian artists. Ukraine later banned Depardieu and has also blacklisted more than 100 Russian films. The cultural war with Moscow continued this year when Kiev banned Russia’s Eurovision entrant, Yulia Samoilova, for performing in Crimea in 2015. Samoilova plans to give another concert in Crimea when the contest is held in Kiev on 13 May. Ukraine earned the right to host the competition when its 2016 entrant, Jamala, won with a song about Joseph Stalin’s deportation of the Crimean Tatars, which was also interpreted as a commentary on the 2014 annexation.
He runs like a girl who can't run and looks like he hasn't missed a meal in 10 minutes.....think old Marlon Brando
So fake! A good laugh though. Dim Mak also known as Duann mie is often misrepresented. While it's purported that it can cause immediate incapcitation or death, in truth it is a way of killing an enemy by directing a blow against a specific vain via pressure points which will cause a wasting away of the victim over a period of time, not immediately. Though there are other techniques that of course can kill instantly. Bruce Lee is thought to have been a victim of Dim Mak. Before he died he lost a lot of weight and was wasting away. Doctors could not figure out what exactly was causing this. After his death during autopsy it was found that the blood vessels in Lee's lungs were broken in a way that could not be explained.
