Newly-wed Kate Moss wants to buy luxury yacht

Newly-wed Kate Moss wants to splash out on a luxury yacht after falling in love with life on the ocean wave.

The 37-year-old and her husband Jamie Hince had the best time ever honeymooning on tycoon Sir Philip Green's massive boat Lionheart, reports Dailystar UK.

Now, the couple is desperate to buy their own yacht so that they can enjoy more cruises around and they have asked Moss' assistant to find out more information about boats on the market.

The couple have a budget of around 2 million pounds for their new dream.

"Kate and Jamie fell in love with life at sea. Kate really enjoyed the privacy on board and the fact that she could just cruise from island to island. They now want to splash out on their own and invite all their friends on board for one hell of a time," said a friend.

Amy Winehouse autopsy 'not before tomorrow'

Amy Winehouse's death yesterday is currently being treated as 'unexplained'.

Various reports suggest that an autopsy will be carried out either later today or early tomorrow morning to ascertain the cause of the 27-year-old's death. However, it has now reportedly been confirmed that the post-mortem will not take place before tomorrow.

Winehouse was pronounced dead yesterday after police were called to her £2m home in North London.

"Inquiries continue into the circumstances of the death, which at this stage is being treated as unexplained," said a Scotland Yard spokesman. "We do have people we're speaking to but nobody has been arrested.

"A number of people were helping police with their inquiries but we are still trying to establish who was with her when she died. It's fair to say these people are central to police enquiries in piecing together what happened before she died."

A police source reportedly told the paper that Winehouse's death is being treated as "drink and drugs-related".

Since news of Winehouse's death broke yesterday, tributes have continued to pour in from across the entertainment industry, with the likes of Rihanna, Lily Allen and Kelly Osbourne all paying tribute to the late singer.

Barbie doll creator dead

The creator of the Barbie doll and Hot Wheels miniature cars, Elliot Handler, died here this week after dedicating most of his life to his toymaking company Mattel, the daily Los Angeles Times said. He was 95.

Handler died at home Thursday from heart failure, the newspaper cited his daughter Barbara Segal as saying.

In 1945 Handler founded the Mattel company, together with his wife Ruth and his partner Harold Mattson, to make gifts and toys, among which they developed the iconic Barbie and later her boyfriend Ken, both dolls named after the Handler kids.

Ruth Mosko, later Handler, worked as a secretary at Paramount Studios and became the driving force behind Mattel's business and sales.

Born April 19, 1916 in Illinois and raised in Colorado, he studied industrial design and was one of the pioneers in using the power of television to sell products to the kiddie market.

Mattel's first sales success was a plastic Uke-a-Doodle ukelele, followed by a toy gun promoted on TV programmes like "The Mickey Mouse Club".

In 1959 the Handlers developed Barbie and in 1969 Hot Wheels, two of the company's emblematic products which continue to make profits in the millions.

The couple left Mattel in the 1970s following a series of accusations related to the bad financial practices.

Ruth Handler died in 2002 and was known as "Barbie's mom".
