No Regrets

Stig Tøfting har gennem sin karriere trukket overskrifter og spisesedler med i sit kølvand, og hans omtumlede tilværelse er altid blevet genfortalt i små og ufærdige bidder. I årevis er der blevet hvisket i krogene om hans brutale baggrund og hans involvering i alskens sager, men ingen har kendt hverken den halve eller den fulde sandhed, og intet medie har derfor kunnet fortælle den. Men nu bryder den 36-årige Tøfting langt om længe sin selvvalgte tavshed i biografien ” No Regrets ” som er skrevet i samarbejde med journalisten Lars Steen Pedersen. Dette er på alle måder en stærk historie, ærlig og gruopvækkende, men også rørende og livsbekræftende. Samtidig giver den et fantastisk indblik i den professionelle fodboldverden, hvor vi alt for ofte bliver spist af med klicheer og overfladiske betragtninger. Den slags ligger bare ikke til Stig, så han fortæller, hvad han har oplevet. Hverken mere eller mindre…

Stig Tøfting er den mest kontroversielle spiller, der har optrådt på det danske fodboldlandshold til to VM-slutrunder og to EM-turneringer. Han er fyret af sin hjerteklub for slagsmål, bedste venner med Hells Angels-rockerne og har siddet i fængsel for vold. Dette er den ærlige og personlige beretning fra mennesket bag fodboldspilleren. En barsk livshistorie fra en sportsstjerne, der er blevet ramt af personlige tragedier, og som mod alle odds kæmpede sig fra det århusianske arbejdermiljø til en tilværelse som kendt fodboldspiller med sit livsmotto ""No regrets"" tatoveret på maven. Stig Tøfting , No regrets giver et sjældent indblik i en ellers lukket del af fodboldverdenen. Han tager læserne med bag kulisserne med selvoptagede stjerner, hemmelige kontrakter og skjulte skandaler, indsamlet gennem et lang fodboldliv i Danmark, Tyskland, England, Kina og Sverige. Og fremlægger usædvanlige kontrakter, dagbog fra fængslet og episoder fra kampe til VM og Champions League med stjerner som Ronaldo, Zidane, Totti og Beckham. Stig Tøfting, no regrets er fortalt til og skrevet af Lars Steen Pedersen , redaktionschef på DR-Sporten.

A funny, candid, New York Times bestselling memoir from the former lead guitarist of the legendary rock band KISS, Ace Frehley. The legendary guitar god who exceeded all limits and lived to tell takes fans on a wild ride through KISStory. He was just a boy from the Bronx with stars in his eyes. But when he picked up his guitar and painted stars on his face, Ace Frehley transformed into "The Spaceman"--and helped turn KISS into one of the top-selling bands of all time. Now, for the first time, the beloved rock icon reveals his side of the story with no-holds-barred honesty . . . and no regrets. For KISS fans, Ace offers a rare behind-the-makeup look at the band's legendary origins, including the lightning-bolt logo he designed and the outfits his mother sewed. He talks about the unspoken division within the band--he and Peter Criss versus Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons--because the other two didn't "party every day." Ace also reveals the inside story behind his turbulent break-up with KISS, their triumphant reunion a decade later, and his smash solo career. Along the way, he shares wild stories about dancing at Studio 54 with "The Bionic Woman," working as a roadie for Jimi Hendrix, and bar-flying all night with John Belushi. In the end, he comes to terms with his highly publicized descent into alcohol, drugs, and self-destruction--ultimately managing to conquer his demons and come out on top. This is Ace Frehley. No makeup. No apologies. No regrets.

That first fall, Glenn Stewart had no idea what he'd signed up for! Working for his uncle (the outfitter) as a wrangler at the mountain camps was a dream come true. The ensuing life-altering experience had more value than he could have ever imagined. No Regrets is an entertaining collection of action-packed stories about 17-year-old Glenn, his uncle and the various other crew members doing what outfitters do. One hundred days in the mountains, eighty miles from the nearest road, no power, only campfires and frozen pants, wild horses, wild animals, and breathtaking raw beauty at every turn. Transportation was on the back of a horse or on foot. Soft hands turned blistered and then hard and callused. Huge responsibilities with real life consequences. Days ended with old-fashioned storytelling and belly-laughing around the campfire. How could getting your ass chewed on a regular basis be good for your soul? Glenn had to dig deep every single day to meet the challenges of this job. The fall started with a test and it ended with a test, one that could have taken his and his horses' life!
