Odds and Ends

Anne Coulter's jaw wired shut after fall

Celebrity gossip, famous birthdays and other tidbits, compiled from Seattle Times news services.

Hard-right firebrand Ann Coulter, who fell a few weeks ago and reportedly broke her jaw, is having her jaw wired shut, according to the New York Post. She will have it unshut in a few weeks to record the audio version of her book "The New Ann Coulter." No word from Coulter.

Critters

Smells great!

The Christmas ornaments for sale at the Miller Park Zoo's gift shop in Bloomington, Ill., are partly manufactured by reindeer. Employees make decorations out of droppings from the zoo's two reindeer, Ealu and Rika. The droppings are dried, clear-coated and either painted or rolled in glitter.

Oops

New bill has wrong bill

Someone put the wrong bird on Bermuda's new $50 bill. Ornithologist David Wingate said the new $50 note features the red-billed tropicbird instead of the local white-tailed tropicbird. Monetary officials apologized for the error but said the red bill of the larger bird looks better against the note's pale-yellow background and won't correct it.

Passages

Patricia Marand, 74, actress nominated for a Tony Award for her role as Lois Lane in the 1966 Broadway musical "It's a Bird ... It's a Plane ... It's Superman," died of brain cancer Thursday in New York City.
