that Russia was once a great power and
he will restore it to its fictional greatness.
What he has induced instead
throughout the sane world is a
developing animous of Russia.
He threatens his own citizens with
imprisonment for up to 15 years for
critiquing his regime. The backlash has
been swift and deliberate from the art
world of Russia and Belarus alone 18
thousand artists have signed a petition
condemning the war in Ukraine. Some
are concerned that their signature
may imprison them. Leaders of major
Russian art institutions are resigning
in response to the Ukraine invasion.
Among them, the deputy director of
the Moscow Pushkin State Museum of
Fine Arts, The artistic director for the
Moscow C-A-C Foundation, artistic
director of Cosmoscow is leaving his
position. These are just a few of the
high-level arts leaders that are leaving
their position Putin may not find them
leaving as detrimental to his tyranny
as the reporter, Sally Jenkins, from the
Washington Post states more directly
what may worry Putin: “His brand of
shirtless belligerent patriotism-his macho
nationalism- has been a long con, and
it’s no small thing to knock him off medal
podiums and expose the lifts on his
shoes, or to rip off his judo belt and show

disasters. The first photo of a little girl
with a Ukrainian flag crushing tanks is a
reminder to Putin that the people have
the power.
This exposure of who Putin really is may
be more threatening to his deceptive

Loving Your Inner Hoe
In his new book, the Love Guru teaches men how to unlock selfhealing
powers they didn't know they had
By Ben Benson
Sex is natural and an
integral part of adult life,
however, while many of us
share it with lovers,
partners, and even
strangers, we often feel
uncomfortable discussing it.
Byron Jamal was one of
those people. When he
recognized how his own
sexual hang-ups were
harming himself and people
around him, he decided to
dig deeper into its source.
The former pastor
confronted his sexual
shame, the trauma from his
youth, and the stigma he
was carrying, and decided
to abandon conventional
views on sex and sexuality
and develop his own
approach to sex.
In HOW TO HEAL A HOE,
the bisexual author
combines the spiritual
principles he preached to
his congregation with the
practical everyday
techniques he uses today in
his sex therapy practice,
