Please throw a post in the comments box telling any free-sharing related stories!It seemed to me that the title Free-sharing is a more accurate site description and so hence the title change.

A couple of days ago, I learned from:A Blog of Goodies:http://www.ablogofgoodies.com/2009/02/freebie-cookies-crafts-at-uno.html that Uno's Chicago Grill is offering a cookie and craft s night on Tuesdays from 5-8pm. Uno's website, however, offered no info on this event, so contacted the co who confirmed that the Uno's chain of restaurants is indeed offering the Tuesday night event though it may be a short lived event but will last throughout this month of March. Here is the contact info for all of the Uno restaurants if you want to make sure your local restaurant is participating and specific details on this temp weekly event:http://www.unos.com/location.html
An interesting note about Unos that I didn't know till the other day is that Health Magazine put Uno's on the top of their healthiest restaurants list for 2009.The restaurant even offers gluten free selections.

The Howard Hughes Medical Center offers science related publications and videos/dvds at no charge. http://www.hhmi.org/catalog/main?action=home Note that there are more dvd's than video tapes available. I typed videos as I often consider dvds, videos. Well, after ordering, I noticed that the films are offered in both dvd $ video tape format, so I contacted customer service to change my order to the dvd format. There are a couple of films on evolution which I did not order, but there are many other films that look great! Note that the films are shipped throughout to Canada & US and the publications are sent out to many countries.One of the no cost publications that The foundation offers is their HHMI magazine:http://www.hhmi.org/catalog/main?action=getCategoryListing&catId=6

The Howard Hughes Medical Institute also offers scholarships for educational programs such as college bridge type programs such as where students gain college credit prior to the student's freshman year most often the summer before. Admission is usually very selective and limited. Also, the program may not be well publicized-that I know from personal experience,so here is a list of participating colleges to make inquiry at a specific institution where the program is offered:http://www.hhmi.org/resources/diversity/participants_hhmi.html
