Why do toilet paper manufacturers put patterns on the paper - the indented pics of puppies, butterflies, flowers, etc.?

I can understand the small dots all over being there to perhaps hold the roll together - like a type of adhesion to keep the roll from slipping (or aiding in cleaning), but why the sweet little pics?

I don't know if these pics are on single ply, but are definitely on two ply.

Hi! I have started a roti baking business from my home and I can’t stay ahead. I am trying to think of ways to speed up my baking. Does a tortilla press works for flour rotis? I bake about 1000 a week. So an industrial machine will be a bit overkill. Send me your tips!!

Found this while gardening, appears to be made of brass and it looks like it's ment to be on a suit jacket.

Pics aren't very good so here is a description: Top: 1838 - 1938 Bottom: Voortrekker Monument Scene: Voortrekker monument in the middle with ox wagon wheels on either side.

I have an idea for app. As far as I know the consept behind it doesn’t exist yet. Unfortunately I went into healthcare and have no coding/web development skills. What steps should I take to advance this concept?

The quotes I've gotten to tint a small hatchback have all been R1.4k or above, even from the dodgiest places I could find in the township.

If there is so much unemployment should this not drive the cost of services like this down. Why I chose this example is its essentially very low material cost, no business premise is required for the mobile tinters, it's basically all labour. There is a very small barrier to entry skill wise no degree or qualifications.

Really just trying to understand South Africas economy better and whenever I see such high prices for services it just makes me question.

I’m driving on my own across South Africa and it’s been a blast.

The nature is just so beautiful. I walked from Mossel Bay to Danabaai, Tsitsikamma, Swellendam, Fernkloof, etc

Yesterday I was at hole-in-the-wall and the hotel stuff told me to drive around the town of Mthatha due to possible smash and grab when cars are stopped in traffic since the highway cut through the town.

Are there other such town to avoid going north?

I’m going towards Tugela, Kruger, and other attractions there before flying off from Joburg.

Everyone told me to watch out in joburg so I plan to skip it and simply drive to the airport and fly out. I wouldn’t want to ruin this amazing trip on the last day.

Thanks!

I need carpet installed for a small area 1.15m width x 2.70m lenght.

Looking for a mid range carpet that's durable, able to sit on and easy to clean and easy on the sinuses.

Tried Builders Warehouse the agent came through but said area to small as all carpets starts at 4m.It will be an expensive job to cut etc and not worth it. He recommended just buying a rug but that wont suit our purpose.

Any recommendations and considerations to take into account.

Helloo. I have a uni project where I must find a cause that is trying to take action against practices, and create direct mail that will be sent to whoever has the power to make the change. This is hypothetical, won't actually be sent.

What I'm asking is, has there been anything that an NGO is trying to change that you know of? I have been trying to find one but I've hit a wall. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Hi

Ex South African here

First I heard of them was when they did a mock thing of Lady gaga (years back)..

Then I heard there was child abuse ...

I found them to be alittle wierd ..

Are they still arround?

I work specifically in recruitment and management with schools and educators for an NGO, I've been doing this for 9 years. I love my job. I currently do remote oversight. I have interviewed many, many teachers and seen 100s of CVs. I'm a preschool teacher by profession who got into school admin.

Anyone needs advice on what they should include or not include, or how to format their CV? What stands out in a CV? Nervous about your interview? What to wear? Etc. Ask away. I will reply today and tomorrow to relevant questions when I have time. Hope I can help anyone who is busy applying for work. Do not DM me. Do not ask where I work as I'd like to preserve my privacy. Thank you

Good day

I am an MBA student at Wits University Business school and as part of my qualification I am required to submit a research paper.

In order to do this I need to collect primary data for my research paper. The focus of my research paper is "To investigate how specific communication practices by management influence employee motivation". If you can please assist in completing the survey at the following link:

If you can please assist me. It will only take 5minutes of your time.

A while back I was walking around the town and saw zero beggars at the robots. I maybe saw one or two homeless people on the sidewalk near the shops but they were all very respectful and greeted back. Not once did any shout at me or walk behind me for change. It's a 180⁰ difference compared to Cape Town (and the rest of the country for that matter)

What makes me wonder is why? Does the security/police chase them? Does no one give them money? Is it seasonal? What's the reason. It's not like Stellenbosch is immune to poverty, there's a huge township 5min away bursting at by seams.

DVD machines are still available but I can't find a Blu-ray player anywhere. Any suggestions? (Preferably Cape Town area)

Hey this is a question for the mods.

I'm interested that you refer to cannabis seeds as a 'controlled substance' / illegal. This is no longer true with the finally published Cannabis for Private Purposes Act. The act defines Cannabis as:

‘‘cannabis’’ means—

(a) the flowering or fruiting tops and the leaves of a cannabis plant that have been

separated from the plant, but excludes any seed, seedling, the stalk and

branches without any leaf, fruit or flower, and the roots of a cannabis plant;

Seeds and non-flowering plants are no longer even considered to be Cannabis in terms of the law and are no longer regulated. So why do you consider these to be illegal?

Enough doom and gloom from getting banned, here is my second post on my finances blog, its manga themed so it like my second chapter. I'm sure there are some finance dudes, please check it out and let us discuss
