Piolo Pascual admits courting Toni Gonzaga in the past

ACTOR Piolo Pascual has admitted courting Toni Gonzaga-Soriano in the past but it did not prosper.

“I’ve seen her evolved. Naudlot eh. Hindi pa sya ready nun eh. It’s very open naman,” said Pascual when asked if he really courted Gonzaga before during an interview on “Tonight With Boy Abunda” on ABS CBN.

Pascual and Gonzaga are the stars of the latest movie “Last Night.”

Asked to give a glimpse of the movie, Pascual said: “Pareho silang may conflict sa buhay. Nagkataon nagkatagpo sila at pinagdesisyunan nila na magsama for that last night. ‘Last Night’ is very complex.

“Even kami po ni Tin (Toni Gonzaga), hindi namin alam ang magiging ending until we shoot on the last day. We shot chronologically,” the actor said.

Written by actress Bela Padilla, the reunion movie of Pascual and Gonzaga is directed by Joyce Bernal.

In 2014, Pascual and Gonzaga appeared in the blockbuster movie “Starting Over Again” which earned more than P400 million in domestic gross.

Facing the “golden mirror,” the 40-year-old actor said that he still wanted to get married soon.

Sought to give an advice to the man in the mirror prior to marriage, Pascual said: “Siguraduhin mo lang na sigurado ka dahil ‘yun na ‘yun.”

Pascual describes himself aa “mapogi.”

He also calls himself “mabait” as a friend.

“Mabait pero pagnasaling, ‘yun ang pinakamahirap. It’s easy to gain trust pero once na ma-break mo ‘yun, yung ang pinakamahirap mabalik. ‘Yun ang bilang kaibigan siguro,” Pascual said.

He also describes himself as inconsistent as a lover. “Minsan wala sa lugar, minsan hindi consistent.”

Pascual said that he is not bothered when people call him sexy.

“Wala po ok naman eh. Lakasan lang ng loob. Kung ano man po ang kapangitan ko, tinatanggap ko ‘yun,” he added.

You can pay at a restaurant by smiling at a camera

© Provided by Engadget As easy as it is to make purchases in the era of tap-to-pay services , it's about to get easier still. Alipay (which handles purchases for Chinese shopping giant Alibaba) has launched what it says is the first payment system that uses facial recognition to complete the sale. If you visit one of KFC's KPRO restaurants in Hangzhou, China, you can pay for your panini or salad by smiling at a camera-equipped kiosk -- you need to verify the purchase on your phone, but you don't have to punch in digits or bring your phone up to an NFC reader. The system (Smile to Pay) is purportedly resistant to spoofing with photos and other tricks. It relies on both depth-sensing cameras and a "likeness detection algorithm" to make sure it's really you. Reportedly, the technology is good enough that it can accurately identify people even when they're disguising themselves through makeup or wigs. You shouldn't have to worry about someone buying ...

DOF opposes tiered approach to tax on sugary drinks

© Provided by Mediamerge Corporation MONEY- Tax thumbnail The Department of Finance (DOF) is not amenable to Senator Juan Edgardo Angara's suggestion to implement the proposed levy on sugar sweetened beverages via a three-tier system. "We oppose the tiered approach. Meaning 'yung first seven grams will be tax free and then after that would be taxable," Finance Undersecretary Karl Chua said during the Economic Journalists Association of the Philippines (EJAP) Economic Forum in Manila on Friday. Chua note the tiered approach may compel manufacturers to come up with smaller packaging. "So you can drink three of them with no taxes," the Finance official said. It will defeat the purpose of imposing excise tax on sugary drinks as a health measure, he added. During deliberations on the comprehensive tax reform bill, Angara floated the idea of implementing the excise tax on sugar sweetened beverages under a three-tier system to incentivize those who manufactu...
