Was It Designed?

[PottersClay]

The feature of the Awake, which has been in the back page of Awake for some time called "Was It Designed?" Isn't in the latest magazine the November Awake on jw.org

Also in the "Interview" article the interview a man named "Eldar Nebolinson" which was quite cool, he is a famous pianist, and from what I have googled about him quite famous in his field. Also he gives a beautiful

Description of the bible, comparing it to a symphony. I enjoyed it so much.

Anyway the Was It Designed? article. I wonder if its gone permanently?

I sure hope not! "Was It Designed?" was probably my favorite series in the Awake! magazine.

what a wonderful feature is it, sure hope it stays... enjoy covering

   it with animal lovers on RVs & mag route

  the current back page is not titled or named as a 'new feature'...

 

perhaps with people feeling quite weighed down with troubles & anxieties

   these days, it was felt this message was needed to give people hope

I noticed that too, so looking at back issues I also noticed it was missing from Dec 2012 and April 2013 issues.  So it seems that sometimes it skips an issue.

I absolutely adore the 'was it designed' portion.

I vaguely remember some time back reading that some things would change on the mags. The mag are smaller so the missing features would be moved to JW.org.

yippee! this feature is in our new Dec Awake! out today

 

  so happy they keep it going,

  love using it with animal lovers & science-minded types in our ministry

There's one on the back of our recent mags regarding the Emperor Penguin's feathers.   For anyone having seen March of the Penguins, they'd know what a hearty animal the Emperor Penguin is.

 

Males and Females both go without food for months on end in order to ensure the egg is kept warm.  Reaching -80C at the height of winter, the Emperor Penguin males huddle in a circle together, and take turns moving about the circle to ensure all have a chance to be on the inside of the circle and on the outside.  Meanwhile the females are relieved of their egg watching duties and must make a perilous trip back home to feed in the open waters, they have lost 1/4th of their body weight by that time.  By the time spring arrives/eggs hatch, the ice has melted and the males have lost half their body weight.

 

Any time you think you have a hard life, check out the resiliency of this marvelous creation of Jehovah's and ask yourself if it's really so bad LOL!

   good point! Sharon I too loved the penguin article

 

  speaking of resiliency, remember this little guy? 

    

    the arctic ground squirrels set a record in hibernation at 28.6 degrees.

      and it's brain works better afterward?!
