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

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

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

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

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

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

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.
