Pavel Tsatsouline - Kezdd el a kettlebellt!
A fizikai edzés AK-47-ese... Egyszerű, ördögi és brutális eszköz - ha jó kezekbe kerül, akkor azonban nem több mint egy szelíd, engedelmes vasdarab. A sportolók választása az egyszerű, de éppen ezért hatékony edzésmódszerre. Segítségével garantált a kemény, szálkás izomzat, amely mintha arra termett volna, hogy gond nélkül állja a kisebb-nagyobb ütéseket. A Kettlebell először meghódította a Nyugatot, majd Magyarországra érkezett. Az egykori cári, majd a szovjet hadsereg katonáinak kedvenc "játékszere" egyszerű, mint a pofon: végy egy ágyúgolyót, szerelj rá fogantyút és építs klasszikus, izmos felsőtestet, anélkül, hogy szteroidoktól felpumpált vagy aerobiktól nőies lenne az alkatod! A Kezdd el a Kettlebellt! mostantól a magyaroknak is betekintést nyújt az orosz történelem egyik legdédelgetettebb titkába, abba, hogy hogyan működhet valami, ami ilyen egyszerű.

Agárdy Ferenc - Hargitay Béla - Hargitay István - Kun Endre - Márffy Attila - Az első huszonöt év - The First Twenty Five Years 1957-1982 Melbourne H.S.C. alapításának 25 éves évfordulója
Az első huszonöt év
Egy anekdotával szeretnénk kezdeni.
1957 elején, mikor az egyik éjszakába nyúló gyűlés után végleges formát öltött a Melbourne Hungária Soccer Club megalakulása, s megittuk rá az áldomást, valaki - már nem tudni hogy ki - az utolsó szó jogán viccesen megjegyezte: ne aggódjatok gyerekek, csak az első 25 év lesz nehéz....
Nos, ez az első huszonöt esztendő hihetetlenül gyorsan eltelt. Sikerek és balsikerek váltogatták egymást, játékosok, edzők, vezetőségek garmadája jött és ment, végleges otthont keresve vándoroltunk pályáról pályára, ám ha valaki megkérdezné, hogy nehéz volt-e, nem tudnánk határozott választ adni.
Jubileumi évkönyvünkben sem célunk a válasz keresése, helyette klubunk történetét próbáljuk bemutatni évről-évre, úgy ahogy történt, nem szépítve, nem is csorbítva a 25 év érdemeit, eredményét.
Egy valami volt csak nehéz: a jubileumi könyv összeállítása. Szerkesztőbizottságunk a Magyar Élet 25 évkönyvét lapozta át (kb. 20 ezer oldal), mellette 3000 fénykép közül válogattunk. Igyekeztünk kapcsolatot teremteni mindenkivel, aki valaha is közreműködött a Melbourne Hungária felvirágoztatásáért.
Ennyi munka után könnyű elképzelni, hogy imitt-amott becsúszhatott néhány apróbb hiba könyvünkbe, kimaradt egy-két név, lehet, hogy az adatok sem mindig egyeznek a tényenként elkönyvelt emlékfoszlányokkal.
Csak egyet tudunk mentségünkre felhozni: a jóakarat, a jószándék vezette könyvünk fonalát, épp úgy, mint ahogy a jóakarat, a jószándék vezetett és vezet minden egyes sportembert, aki valaha is szívén viselte a Melbourne sorsát. Ennek köszönhető, hogy 25 év után megújult reményekkel várhatja a Melbourne Hungária Soccer Club a következő huszonöt évet - amely minden bizonnyal könyebb lesz, mint az első 25 év volt.

Jimmy Burns - Maradona (angol)
Diego Maradona, is arguably the greatest and certainly the most widely-known footballer of the modern age. During his tempestuous career he played for top clubs in South America and Europe, and was a central figure in four World Cups. With the fortunes he has earned from sponsorship and transfer deals, he personified football, both as popular sport and big business. Jimmy Burns pursued his research in several countries on both sides of the Atlantic, gaining access to Maradona's inner circle, and to other key witnesses, such as players, managers, trainers, doctors and officials. The result is a story straddling the international scene, from the slums of Buenos Aires, where Maradona was born, to the huge stadiums of the United States from where, in 1994, he was ignobly expelled after undergoing a positive drugs test. In his rise to fame - and notoriety - Maradona played for some of the world's greatest teams: Boca Juniors, Napoli and Barcelona. He scored some brilliant goals - and cheated with others. He provoked fans into a mass hysteria of adulation, and his enemies into sinister campai. Now, as coach of Argentina, he is leading the country into the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. This new edition brings the story of Maradona completely up to date.

Székely Ferenc - 10 év a Heves Megyei Sportmúzeumban, a sport történelmének templomában
"Habent sua fata libelli" az ismert latin mondás szerint a "könyvnek is megvan a maga sorsa". E könyvnek nem csak sorsa, de mondanivalója is van. Mondanivalója egy sportmúzeumról és annak történetéről.
E különös módon létrejött sportmúzeumnak - a szalag átvágását megelőző időszakát is ideértve - végigkísérhettem megvalósulását. Sok-sok örömteli pillanatnak magam is - mint a Magyar Olimpiai Bizottság főtitkára - részese lehettem. Így hát a könyvhöz kapcsolódó gondolataimat nemcsak úgy írhatom le, hogy elolvasva megismertem, hanem úgy is, mint aki a dicsérendő ötlettől a megvalósuláshoz vezető úton mindvégig lelkes támogatója voltam az ügynek.
A reprezentatív könyv bemutatja az olvasónak az egri sportmúzeum felbecsülhetetlen értékeit, tárgyi emlékeit, valamint végigkíséri az egri úszósport legendás történetét. Mindezekből kirajzolódik, hogy a sporttörténelem rangos, fontos területe a magyar sportkultúrának.
A kötet a tízéves sportmúzeum történetének bemutatásával igazolja, hogy a sport a magyar és a világ egyetemes humán kultúrájának része. A sporttörténelem relikviái nemcsak a magyar sporttársadalomnak a világban elismert sikereit mutatják be, hanem Eger és Heves megye kimagasló sporttörténeti eredményeit teszik maradandóvá.

Three knocks can change everything…
"She knew. That’s why Mom hadn’t opened the door. She knew he was dead."
Twenty years as an army brat and Ember Howard knew, too. The soldiers at the door meant her dad was never coming home. What she didn’t know was how she would find the strength to singlehandedly care for her crumbling family when her mom falls apart.
Then Josh Walker enters her life. Hockey star, her new next-door neighbor, and not to mention the most delicious hands that insist on saving her over and over again. He has a way of erasing the pain with a single look, a single touch. As much as she wants to turn off her feelings and endure the heartache on her own, she can’t deny their intense attraction.
Until Josh’s secret shatters their world. And Ember must decide if he’s worth the risk that comes with loving a man who could strip her bare.
Andrew Dettre - The First 15 Years of St. George-Budapest (1957-1972)
There is more to come
by Alex Pongrass, president of St. George-Budapest Soccer Club Ltd.
Seven years have passed since the appearance of " The Story of St. George-Budapest Soccer Club", seven eventful, exciting, sometimes exhilirating years. In this period the club's magnificent home, "Soccer House" was completed and then, more recently, extended, providing the sort of sound economic background the club had never enjoyed before.
Another revolutionary change came about in the 1969-70 seasons when the Club engaged its first full-time manager-coach in Frank Arok. Only some outside factors, including incredible bad luck, have so far prevented this major, progressive move from bearing rich fruit.
However, the intervening years have not been quite barren: in the 1969, 1970 and 1971 seasons our senior team finished runners-up in the Sydney premiership and in 1967 and again in 1971, won the long coveted Grand Final. The club broke fresh ground in 1971 by becoming the first Australian soccer team of any kind to be invited to Japan for a series of matches; winning the prestigeous Tokyo International Tournament, sponsored by the Asahi newspaper group, was a welcome bonus.
Those last few years have also seen the physical and final settling of our Club in the vast St. George district; Hurstville Oval has now become our home ground and at Carss Park the club has a splendidly developed training venue. This irrevocable orientation towards the district has, in turn, helped the senior club's aim to integrate local talent into the fold.
Fifteen hard though fascinating years are now behind us and, hopefully, many decades lie ahead. The Club's Directors are fully aware of the many changing trends in sport, sociel activities and life patterns; they are anxious to make sure that the Club as well as "Soccer House" keep fulfilling their roles in this changing world.
In this work of theirs, they need the encouragement and support of not only all the Club's membership but also of those who regard sport and the integration of migrants close to their hearts.
Andrew Dettre - Silver Jubilee of St. George-Budapest (1957-1982)
Where Thanks Are Due...
By Alex Pongrass, President of St. George-Budapest
On this magnificent occasion, our 25th birthday, we should pay generous tribute to all those people who have helped to make this club into what it is today.
Even among those, one should single out the handful who have given many years of excellent service, often dacrificing pesonal ambitions, to develop our club. It"s been said before but it doesn't make it less true: the organisation within a club depends on the work of many people. Even the biggest wheel grinds to a halt without the numerous smaller cogs.
If I can single out just two achievements from the annaés of our 25 years, I consider it an easy task.
The second great achievement is the smooth friendly and very active co-operation between the juniors and seniors who come under the club's umbrella. This, perhaps more than any other single factor, assures the club's future in the years to come.
Still, this future has to be secured and we do need more and more young people, more fresh blood, to join us in the administration of this club. A new generation of leaders and co-workers will have to be found, groomed and encouraged to take the club towards its next silver jubilee, in 2007.
Only then can we sit back and relax a bit, in the happy knowledge that the sacrifices of the founders and pioneers have not been in vain.

Közel 100 éves egyesületünk működésében, illetve népszerűségében mindenkor meghatározó szerepe volt a labdarúgásnak. Ez nem elfogultság, hanem természetes, hiszen hazánkban mindig a labdarúgás váltotta ki a sportszerető társadalom legszélesebb körű érdeklődését. Ebből klubunk sem tudta kivonni magát, és a jövőben sem kívánja elfelejteni.
Daniel James Brown - The Boys in the Boat
Out of the depths of the Depression comes an irresistible story about beating the odds and finding hope in the most desperate of times—the improbable, intimate account of how nine working-class boys from the American West showed the world at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin what true grit really meant.
It was an unlikely quest from the start. With a team composed of the sons of loggers, shipyard workers, and farmers, the University of Washington’s eight-oar crew team was never expected to defeat the elite teams of the East Coast and Great Britain, yet they did, going on to shock the world by defeating the German team rowing for Adolf Hitler. The emotional heart of the tale lies with Joe Rantz, a teenager without family or prospects, who rows not only to regain his shattered self-regard but also to find a real place for himself in the world. Drawing on the boys’ own journals and vivid memories of a once-in-a-lifetime shared dream, Brown has created an unforgettable portrait of an era, a celebration of a remarkable achievement, and a chronicle of one extraordinary young man’s personal quest.
