Subject:	Paper towels
Message:	Dear Rabbi, I know that it is permitted to rip a piece of paper towels as long as it is not on the preforation and it is a sha'at hadechak. However, is it permitted to tear a bounty if it has the decorations or the designs. what if it is just the texture from the new quilted- quiker- pick- your- upper thing. Also what is the halacha if there is texture on anything else that you want to rip.

Reply:	If you can rip it, the designs are irrelevant. What is the new quilted- quiker- pick- your- upper thing? CYA
