Wooden bust of King Tut -- the famous "death mask" from his sarcophagus isn't allowed to travel, so this is the best look you'll get at Tutankhamun.
We kicked off the month with visits from Sarah Palin and King Tut (well, some of his stuff, anyway), took you behind the scenes with the Mavericks dancers, and behind the shuttered doors of downtown's abandoned buildings. We got a look at Bill Clinton's charms, Dirk Nowitzki's Guitar Hero chops and Darth Vader's special recipe... and then the Halloween parties started. If nothing else, October's been a very good month, in pictures.
