Just ask Tom Cruise, fan of bird poop facials: Divorce is crappy

BY NICOLE JAMES

Some celebrities naturally age like fine wine. For those who weren’t lucky enough to be blessed by the genetics gods, plenty of help is available. There is no shortage in the amount of weapons used to fight Mother Nature and Father Time ranging from severe to subtle: face lifts, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, botox, bird poop…wait, bird poop?

Apparently, having bird crap smeared all over your face is all the rage amongst the famous elite. Just ask megastar actor Tom Cruise.

According to an article in the UK’s Now Magazine, Tom Cruise relies on bird poop to help him maintain his boyish good looks. Specifically, the “Rock of Ages” star uses a facial that contains nightingale droppings in it. I guess, pigeon excrement is too common for Hollywood big shots. Only the best poo will do, isn’t that right Mr. Cruise?

Believe it or not, Tom isn’t the only star to go the poo poo route to keep his face wrinkle free. David Beckham’s other half, former Spice Girl and current fashion designer Victoria Beckham, also pays to have these facials done. In fact, Now Magazine reports that Mrs. Beckham helped to make these facials famous. The spa treatments don’t come cheap either. A Huffington Post article reports that these nightingale facials costs $180 per treatment. Wow, that crap is expensive (pun intended)!

Children can be conned out of inheritance after multiple marriages

BY CAROL ABAYA NEWJERSEYNEWSROOM.COM THE SANDWICH GENERATION Multiple marriages and blended families can mean children get cheated out of money and assets their parent(s) earned and had before the second or third marriage. At the 2012 senior citizens’ law day conference, Lawrence A. Friedman, Bridgewater elder law attorney, said elders need to protect their children of prior marriages from being disinherited. "Even if your spouse’s current will provides for your children, your spouse may change it after you pass away,” he said. In addition to protecting one's child, an appropriate will can minimize N.J. estate taxes, which kick in if assets are over $675,000. At the conference, Cathyanne Pisciotta from North Brunswick discussed guardianship which could be necessary if various legal documents are not signed. Pisciotta said that if a person does not have a durable power of attorney (for financial affairs) and a living will (for medical decisions), anyone else can seek guardianship of that person. An expensive court proceeding is mandatory. And she said, “If one person seeks guardianship, someone else can challenge the appointment. Another relative may seek to be appointed guardian because he/she wants the money and power.”
