Beckham's secret messages for Sarah

          Sydney: David Beckham was once desperately in love with Sarah Marbeck. Or so it seems from the text messages revealed by his former girlfriend. According to the Herald Sun, Marbeck has supplied samples of the text messages that the soccer star mailed to her five days after they met on July 31 2001.

DB: I need to c u so bad, I need that neck . . . I'm still feeling that electricity. Are you? I wanted u the first time I saw u XX

The following day there is a succession of texts . . .

DB: I want your mouth in more places the next time. I don't know what we are doing but the funny thing is I don't want it to stop. X

DB: First of all your neck, then it would be your ... , then I would make love to you for some time . . .

He again mailed her on August 4, 2001.

DB: When we see each other next it will be my eyes, my hands and my teeth undressing that gorgeous body.

DB: I can't wait to kiss u head to toe then sit you down and ---- your ------- and ---- you till you are so --- u can't take any more and I would bend u over and ---- u so hard :) X

DB: The hardest thing is missing you and wanting you but not being able to have you!

He turned secretive on August 12.

DB: I can't talk cause I don't want someone to hear, but what I could do is answer and just listen to you and reply with a um. I know it's pathetic and it will sound like your on the phone to a pervert heavy breathing, but remember I haven't told anyone and don't intend anyone finding out, ---- this is stupid. X

And said the three vital words on January 10

DB: I love you.

Becks the ultimate lover, claim Loos, Marbeck (Go To Top)

          Sydney: David Beckham's prowess is not just limited to the football field. The soccer star is a multi-talented man. According to the Herald Sun, Rebecca Loos and Sarah Marbeck, who claim to have had passionate affairs with him, have revealed that he is the ultimate lover. "It was the most explosive sex I have ever had. David is an incredible lover. He's very caring and makes sure a woman is satisfied. And he has the most incredible stamina. He is an athlete and it shows," said Loos. Loos said Beckham grew more adventurous on the third night. "I'm certain he did things to me that night which he wouldn't have dared ask to try out with his wife," she added. Marbeck echoed Loos' glowing praise for Beckham. "We made fantastic love and he gave me the highest, most intense moments of passion I have ever felt," she said. "At the crucial moment, his eyes were blazing and he threw his head back in ecstasy. He has a very nice, toned, athletic body and he's well endowed. You might say he's a very genetically blessed man," she added.

Becks, Posh's sex life a sham: Rebecca Loos (Go To Top)

          Sydney: The David Beckham-Rebecca Loos story seems to be getting juicier by the day. The soccer star's paramour has announced that Becks celebrity marriage has degenerated into a sexless sham as the midfielder can't stand Victoria's stick-like body. According to the Herald Sun, Loos, Beckham's former personal assistant, claimed that the Real Madrid star hated his wife's body. "He hated the way she looked. He hated her thin, stick-like body. He was always telling her to eat more and encouraged her to do so at meal times," Loos said in her first interview since the Beckham bombshell erupted last week. "He told me one day, 'I love her, but it is more like a brotherly and sisterly love. I don't find her as attractive as I used to'."

          The Dutch diplomat's daughter said she began to fall in love with Beckham as she watched him struggle with Victoria's extended absences from their Madrid home. "What happened between us was more than just sex. He needed a woman to be with him and to help him through a difficult, lonely spell in his life," Rebecca said in an interview to the News of the World. By the time she kissed the Real Madrid star for the first time, the pair were driven by desire, Loos added. "My heart was racing as his lips touched mine for the first time in the back of his car. They were so warm. It was like we were two parts of a jigsaw fitting neatly together," she said.

Sarah Marbeck was paid by the newspaper (Go To Top)

          Sydney: Neville Thurlbeck, a British journalist has revealed that the stories he penned for the British tabloid News of the World about Beckham's alleged infidelity had exposed his marriage as being far from perfect. Recently, Australian-based Sarah Marbeck claimed that she was Beckham's mistress for nearly two years. Her allegations came a week after his former personal assistant Rebecca Loos also went public with claims that she had an affair with Beckham last year. Thurlbeck said that while Marbeck was paid by the newspaper for her story, he was convinced she was telling the truth. "There's no doubt at all that Sarah's telling me the truth.I believed her from the moment that we started talking about it. She had pictures of them together, she had telephone calls with him and she had literally, as I say, hundreds if not maybe thousands of texts from a phone number which is owned by David Beckham," he said. "She has been paid, there's no question about that.Her life will be one big rollercoaster ride for the next few weeks. It's not going to be an easy time for her. I don't think the fact that we've paid her takes away the fact that the story is true," he added.

Both fly to Britain for a showdown (Go To Top)

          London: David Beckham and Victoria have secretly flown to Britain for a showdown over revelations of his fling with a new girl, Sarah Marbeck, a 29-year-old model. The troubled couple is expected to spend the next couple of days locked up in their Beckingham Palace mansion where they will have a series of open talks in a desperate bid to save their marriage. Earlier, a grim-faced Victoria left her two million pound holiday chalet in the French Alps to fly to Madrid where she attended a game in a public show of support for David, adds the report. Meanwhile, it has been learnt that David is planning a new book to give his account of the alleged affairs. Tom Watt, who helped pen David's autobiography 'My Side', said: "David likes the idea of another book as he knows they offer a chance to explode myths."

Victoria knew it all along (Go To Top)

          Sydney: Former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham knew about her husband David Beckham's alleged sexual infidelities six months ago. According to Herald Sun, after the singer's friend stylist Marie- Louise warned her that something might be going on, Victoria first confronted Beckham last September. The Posh Spice knew her husband was attracted to his PA, Rebecca Loos, who has sold her story to a newspaper for a reported 850,000 dollars, but she did not know about the salacious allegations of raunchy text messages or three-in-a-bed romps that have emerged since. It was fear of what might develop last year that prompted Victoria to make David drop his long-time agents SFX, for whom Miss Loos worked. And her anger explains her behaviour in recent months. Her refusal to join her husband in Spain, where he plays for Real Madrid, and the amount of time she spent with controversial rapper Damon Dash, were attempts to punish David. The rumours also convinced Victoria not to give up her moribund musical career and to pursue it last year with the controversial Dash as producer.

Shroud of Turin shows ghostly image of man's face (Go To Top)

          Washington: Scientists have discovered a ghostly image of a man's face on the reverse side of the Shroud of Turin, the piece of linen believed to have been wrapped around the body of Jesus Christ after he was crucified. According to ABC Online, the discovery, using new digital imaging techniques, adds a new complexity to one of Christendom's most controversial relics. The study, which will be published online ahead of print publication in the Journal of Optics A: Pure and Applied Optics, examined the back surface of the famous handwoven linen. The front side of the shroud, which carries the smudged outline of the body of a man, has been venerated as proof that Christ was resurrected from the grave, yet dismissed by others as a brilliant medieval fake.

          While a multitude of scientists have investigated the front side of the shroud, the back side has remained hidden for centuries beneath a piece of so-called Holland cloth. Nuns had sewn on the cloth in 1534 to protect the shroud after it had been damaged by fire. And researchers only fully scrutinised the cloth's back surface in 2002, when the 14-foot-long linen was unstitched from the Holland cloth during a restoration project. To the naked eye, the back surface of the shroud showed almost nothing, apart from a peculiar stitching. The surface, however, was photographed in detail and the pictures published in a book by Monsignor Giuseppe Ghiberti, one of the Church's top shroud officials. At the end of the restoration, a new reinforcing cloth was sewn back in place, hiding the shroud's reverse side once more.

          "As I saw the pictures in the book, I was caught by the perception of a faint image on the back surface of the shroud. I thought that perhaps there was much more that wasn't visible to the naked eye," said Giulio Fanti, professor of mechanical and thermic measurements at the University of Padua and the study's lead author. Lying behind the known image of the bearded man bearing the marks of crucifixion, the new image had a striking 3-D quality and matched the known face in form, size and position. "Though the image is very faint, features such as nose, eyes, hair, beard and moustache are clearly visible. There are some slight differences with the known face. For example, the nose on the reverse side shows the same extension of both nostrils, unlike the front side, in which the right nostril is less evident," Fanti said. But the enhancing procedure did not uncover the full body image as it appeared on the front side.
