Luke stayed at our place on the night of his return from Europe. Ruby was happy to see him the next morning.
Ruby-throated Hummingbirds have many skeletal and flight muscle adaptations which allow the bird great agility in flight. Muscles make up 25-30% of their body weight, and they have long, bladelike wings that, unlike the wings of other birds, connect to the body only from the shoulder joint. This adaptation allows the wing to rotate almost 180°, enabling the bird to fly not only forward but also straight up and down, sideways, and backwards, and to hover in front of flowers as it feeds on nectar and insects.
During hovering, ruby-throated hummingbird wings beat 55x/sec, 61x/sec when moving backwards, and at least 75x/sec when moving forward.
Monday november 4th, Ruby Wax presented her book “Sane New World” (Dutch “Tem je Geest”) during an interview by Renate van der Zee.
Interview was held in thé most beautiful and exclusive bookshop of The Hague Paagman, in front of an approx 300 head audience.
Ruby Wax, an American comedian, writer and mental health campaigner, opened herself up to the audience and gave the interviewer Renate “A hard time” every now and then, by answering even before the question was asked.
Meaning Ruby was very aware and clear about her own personal story she wanted to tell. Ruby got a master in mindfulness which she got from the university of Oxford.
She expressed herself in her own special way by using arms and body language to reach the audience, which helped as at one point she had the 300 doing exercises in order to hear themselves breathing and grounding.
Although she felt a little ill, Ruby took all the time needed to give autographs and had a kind word for everybody in the, which I think was the longest line ever in Paagman bookshop.
As a surprise Victor (?) turned up, a student who recently dedicated a poem during the TV program ‘College Tours’.
Impressive, catching….one word: Buy the book if you can..!

The other night I let Ruby sleep on my bed with me, and it wasn't so bad. So I've kind of let her do it every night for almost a week now. She's getting bolder now -- she starts at the bottom of the bed, and eventually ends up with her head on my pillow, snoring right beside me. I just slid out of bed this morning, grabbed a nearby camera and took this shot. That's my pillow her face is on, even though there's another one beside it.
