Jodi Sta. Maria Confirms Split from Jolo Revilla

Veteran Kapamilya actress Jodi Sta. Maria confirmed during a televised interview that she is no longer in a relationship with long-time partner Jolo Revilla, the Vice Governor of Cavite Province. The statement of Jodi Sta. Maria ended speculations and rumors that they were having problems with their romantic relationships.


The 34-year-old Jodi Sta. Maria confirmed the news of her breakup with Jolo Revilla at the sidelines of a press conference for her upcoming movie "The Achy Breaky Hearts." The movie features Jodi Sta. Maria torn between two lovers who were portrayed by Ian Veneracion and Richard Yap.

Jodi Sta. Maria did not elaborate further the main reasons of the split with the son of Sen. Bong Revilla but she noted that they remains as friends.

Last February 2015, rumors spread like wildfire that Sta. Maria and Jolo Revilla were having problems with their romantic relationships. During that time Jolo Revilla was rushed to the hospital after he accidentally shot himself on the chest.

Both Jodi and Jolo refused to speak about the said rumors as they both neither deny nor confirm the rumors. The rumors ultimately died down a weeks later, when Jodi was seen frequently visiting Jolo Revilla at the hospital.

Jodi Sta. Maria first confirmed her relationship with Revilla in late 2012. Prior to Revilla, Sta. Maria was also in a relationship with Pampi Lacson, with whom she has a son.

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

"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.
