Multiply Opens its Doors to Online Sellers!

Before facebook we got hooked with the social networking site multiply.com in which we loved its features especially the photo album feature where we store our photos even in high resolution. Now with a great number of Pinoy followers it influenced the American website in making it a online haven for shoppers and also sellers. With this potential, despite far to compete with the social network giant, providing a great place to shop is indeed a great idea for a website that we are familiar and somehow forgot. But for online sellers and collectors, Multiply is the perfect online site to make secure and fast purchases with a growing number of stores each day.

BLOW The RED WHISTLE

Now with 7 Billion people in the world, the problems also grew like hunger, housing and most especially health. Though many sickness can be cured by medicines today, the HIV/AIDS epidemic remains the most alarming sickness that infects 6 people everyday in the country. And the complications that come with it gives the infected person agonizing pain and also rejection from society.

Now is the perfect time to spread the awareness about HIV/AIDS so that more people may get to know how it is transferred and how to prevent it. 

The Philippines is facing an alarming rise in HIV infection. Six new infections are recorded everyday, an exponential leap from the ‘low and slow’ character of the epidemic before 2007. There are also reports of undocumented HIV-related deaths, a manifestation of the invisibility of the epidemic and its impact. Evidence indicates that the increase is driven by the lack of awareness and appreciation of the risks of HIV infection due to unprotected sex, which is aggravated by fear and stigma that surround the virus and the people living with HIV and AIDS. 


The Red Whistle Campaign is a response to this alarming situation. The emerging trend shows that the current prevention programs are insufficient, and the communities affected by the epidemic must be mobilized into action to support initiatives that aim to stop the epidemic.

HEALTHY LYF: Scotch® Reusable Mounting Products Review

3M introduces new Scotch® Reusable Mounting Products

The only thing constant is change – whether at work, home or in school. With change comes the need to update to be relevant. At home, it’s the grocery lists, chore assignments and the kids’ works of art. At school, essays, sketches and the top students lists need regular updating while at work, monthly quotas, scheduled meetings and project status.

Most people probably take this reality for granted until they see the peeling plaster and walls riddled with holes. With the need for lightweight mounting in mind, 3M Philippines introduces its newest innovation, Scotch® Reusable Mounting Products. The Strips and Tabs are pre-cut, clear, reusable, and removable adhesive for lightweight mounting and re-mounting to maximize available spaces.

“We, in 3M, saw the need of the market for a tool that can help maximize space, organize walls and even decorate homes while at the same time, protecting surfaces. What’s more, this new innovation from Scotch® Brand can be “reused again and again” and can support up to 1lb of weight thereby making it economical, convenient, and eco-friendly,” says Haydee Casapao, 3M Office Supplies Sales and Marketing Manager.

Being reusable, Scotch® Reusable Mounting Products help save money and effort while offering a more eco-friendly and better alternative to magnets, push pins, tacks and putties. They also remove easily and cleanly making them more preferable than tacks which can damage surfaces and even causes minor accidents. They can also be used on most flat surfaces including stainless steel, plastic, concrete, glass, wood and painted walls. Just clean it with water, and it’s good to go again.

Most of the offices and schools don’t allow mounting of objects, photos and posters on

walls because it might damage the paint of the establishment. However, with the use of Scotch® Reusable Mounting Products, photos, posters, and lists can now be mounted without any hassle, residue or damage – perfect for teachers, who need to change their lecture materials in a flash to maximize the time during class discussions, for professionals who need to keep their to-do lists on their cubicle walls or for moms to stick their shopping lists on the fridge. They are also perfect for securing items like picture frames or many of our odds and ends.

Apart from Scotch® Reusable Strips, 3M Philippines also offers Reusable Sheets and Tabs to address all the lightweight mounting requirements and the need to adapt to the various changing environments at home, school or work.

3M and Scotch® are trademarks of 3M.

My Experience and Verdict

The product is easy to use and also can be used with any shape. Cleaning is easy and even kids can do it them selves. Though the tape is a little thick this is actually an advantage for it to peel off smoothly leaving very minimal or no marks at all. As a universal adhesive, its perfect for home use and of course the best feature is yoi can use it over and over again!
