• Start of Halo Week
  
• All Day @ web2zone, 54 Cooper Square, Manhattan
  

Okay, so Halo 3 came out like, what, a million days ago at this point? But if you're one of those poor saps without an Xbox 360, here's your chance to play the game for free, and possibly win some yet to be named prizes.

• Secret Science Club
  
• 8pm @ Union Hall, 702 Union St., Brooklyn

This free lecture has been packed the last two nights out, so arrive early if you want a view and/or a seat. And this is a particularly sexy topic - mass extinction and the history of life. Your guide is Dr. Michael Rampino, biologist, geologist, and most likely not a nut wearing a sandwich board that says "The End Is Near".
