...into a spine-tingling. ghoulish mood for Halloween, freak yourself out by going to Spooky World, America's Horror Theme Park. Four haunted houses, five Halloween Haunted Attractions, and (this is not a joke, we swear it) a 3D Disco Haunted House. It's a little shop of horrors, so good little boys and girls who sleep with a nightlight on might want to take a raincheck on this one. 7 p.m., 100 River Road, Berlin...
...never let her emotions overcome her. It was only in the final moments of the scene as she dashed blindly from the arms of her mother and slipped through Albrecht's arms crumpling to the floor that her expression of utter hopelessness and loss brought shivers down my spine.

Then one week later, She Loves You careened onto the charts...
...this time. Before firing off five nuclear explosions last week, India deliberately concealed its specific test plans and misled the rest of the world. But no one was paying attention anyway, even when the signs of India's intentions were there to be read. The shock runs up our spine because it happened when the age of nuclear terror seemed over. Now the specter is back. Which country will show off its atomic prowess next? Pakistan is certainly tempted. Is another frightening, nation-wrecking arms race brewing? Will we ever devise effective ways to control the nuclear beast...
