But how, then, to explain the presence of blonde-haired people in Mayan temple murals in Chichen Itza, Mexico? Could it be possible that the Vikings had found their way to the Americas during the height of the Mayan empire? It was long assumed that the centuries immediately prior to AD 1000 were lacking in any major cultural developments or geopolitical encounters, that the Europeans hadn’t yet discovered North America, that the farthest anyone had traveled over sea was the Vikings’ invasion of Britain. From celebrated Yale professor Valerie Hansen, a groundbreaking work of history showing that bold explorations and daring trade missions connected all of the world’s great societies for the first time at the end of the first millennium. ![]() ![]() Please be aware that the delivery time frame may vary according to the area of delivery and due to various reasons, the delivery may take longer than the original estimated timeframe.

In the shadow of the biggest market in the country (New York), Hughes has the opportunity to take not only the league, but all of sports by storm with all he brings. ![]() ![]() Let’s say, for instance, Hughes is an immediate success for New Jersey in his rookie year, by the end of it he’ll only be 19 years old. Even with an influx of American born talent, no one has the skill set and the total package that Jack Hughes possesses. born players are projected to go in the 1st round Friday. The American-born talent has never been greater than what it is right now, and that is only going to grow after this draft. The Devils need to take Jack Hughes’ American roots and turn him into the face of hockey in the United States. With all that said about the number-one pick, how should the New Jersey Devils market Jack Hughes? The answer to that is simple. His game is pure hockey with speed, control, and vision that doesn’t come around very often. His personality comes off as both reserved and confident, a combination that bodes well for a future leader. His look is clean, with a real Abercrombie and Fitch kind of way about it. The New Jersey Devils have another number-one draft pick and this time it’s an all-American, hockey dream. ![]() ![]() Twenty-three-year-old Ellie Reynolds is taking a leap of faith.

I half expected her to offer Maeve an apple after consulting a magic mirror, but she’s content to throw them out of their home (the titular Dutch House) upon their father’s death. Their new stepmother, Andrea, is a caricature of an evil stepmother. Their mother left when they were young and their father eventually remarries. The Dutch House follows siblings Danny and Maeve over a period of decades. He “acts” the dialogue in an understated way and doesn’t use a high-pitched voice for female characters. I thought he was reading too quickly at first, even checking the playback speed, but he won me over by the second chapter. ![]() Quick note on the audiobook: Tom Hanks does a stellar job.
