4th annual SAVE THE FROGS Day is coming up, April 28th 2012 (www.savethefrogs.com/day). Our goal is to have 200 events in 30 countries and we are currently only at 21 different countries.  if you and your friends could organize an event to educate your school and/or local community about amphibian conservation. 
A great way to come up with event ideas is to look at what others have done in past years:
http://www.savethefrogs.com/day/2010
http://www.savethefrogs.com/day/2011
Here are some possible ideas:
-give a presentation that centers on frogs and the environment (you can download one of our slideshows here: www.savethefrogs.com/slideshows)
-building a frog pond will provide habitat for local amphibians!
-hold a fundraiser or bake sale
-start a Save The Frogs Chapter at your school (www.savethefrogs.com/chapters
If you do plan to hold an event, please make sure to register it at this link:  http://www.savethefrogs.com/register
Once you register, you are eligible for free educational materials for your event, see:  http://www.savethefrogs.com/packages
Finally, if you would like us to send you a 2012 Save The Frogs Day poster (www.savethefrogs.com/posters#stfday2012) for your classroom or office, please email a request including your mailing address to christopher@savethefrogs.com
Please contact us if you have any questions or suggestions and do not forget to check out our student webpage at (www.savethefrogs.com/students). 

April Happenings in Claremont Canyon  Saturday, April 28: Sudden Oak Death Bio-Blitz. Help with the East Bay 2012 Sudden Oak Death survey--a chance to lessen damage and save some trees! Last Spring's late warm rains may have helped spread the pathogen that now threatens our beautiful coast live oaks. Attend a one-hour training and get materials at 10 AM at the Orinda Community Center or at 1 PM at 159 Mulford Hall on the UC Berkeley campus. Volunteers will then go into the field either to designated spots or in their own backyards to identify threatened trees and then turn in samples by 7 PM Sunday April 29th.
To sign up, go to http://sodblitz2012.eventzilla.net or for information contact Susan Schwartz at f5creeks@aol.com or Shelagh Brodersen at garberparkstewards@gmail.com. The event is sponsored by Friends of Five Creeks, Friends of Sausal Creek and Garber Park Stewards.

Become involved and help to map the distribution of Sudden Oak Death (SOD) in California by joining the group of hundreds of citizen scientists who have been helping for the past four years by participating in local SOD BLITZES.  Attend a one-hour long local training offered by U.C. Berkeley scientist Dr. Matteo Garbelotto, obtain your SOD collection package, and then collect symptomatic plant material in the 48 hours following the training.  Plant material will be processed at Berkeley and results will be posted on an interactive web-available map on October 1. Do not bring material before you attend the training session, as plants need to be sampled following a precise although simple protocol!
Whether you have already participated in a SOD BLITZ, or it is your first time, California oaks need you:  residents with confirmed local SOD infections in their neighborhood can in fact protect their trees from becoming infected rather inexpensively.  Training sessions on how to manage SOD are offered monthly at U.C. Berkeley, and weekly during the Fall in various California locations.
Main reasons to participate in a 2012 SOD-BLITZ:
SOD changes distribution every year
2011 was a major year (a "wave" year) for SOD spread, most of the spread occurred AFTER the 2011 Blitzes were conducted
Years following a  "wave" year are also conducive to the spread of SOD. Hence, we predict the pathogen will spread further in 2012
2012 Blitzes will follow a NEW protocol that will allow us to estimate the actual local SOD infection rate, rather that just informing on local SOD distribution!

I estimate Bay to Breakers in May is 50,000 people. PRIDE is 10,000 people? 
Michael Franti / Spearhead / Power to the Peacefull 2nd Saturday in September is ? 10,000
Get to wharf early to avoid traffic.
One way to count people: look at a map the USA = 50 people. Look at a crowd. How many 50s do you see?
Another way to count people: Look at a 10 x 10 display of items. That is 100. How many 100s do you see in crowd?

)'( Last year BM Tix on Craiglist started out HIGH and ended up going at face value before the event
RELAX. You are safe enough to ASSUME you are going. Plenty folk asked for more tix than they needed to cover their friends / family / camps.
You might post a Tix ad in the WANTED section of CL 
http://sfbay.craigslist.org with fun creative text of who you are, once a week if you are bored, or try different text each time.
also List trades or OFFERS of what you will exchange in the SIGNATURE of your EMAIL
speaking of TRADES take a look at http://sfbay.craigslist.org/bar
perhaps you can ask for what you want; perhaps stop saying oh I'm fine each time a friend or stranger asks how you are doing. Instead answer that you seek a BM ticket then repeat your offers or trades. Let your friends be your angels and matchmakers. :)

Note if you offered BM $390 your ran in all 3 races. If $320 then 2 races. if $240 then only 1 race hence the % spread...

Possible interpretation of BM ticketing process (spreadsheet)
Realizing that the BM ticketing process results are a bit of a conundrum, I had a rough and ready shot at building a spreadsheet (with a glass of wine, you understand) to try to gauge the probabilities of winning tickets. With a few basic assumptions (and assuming the process worked in the same way as advertized), a few rather interesting results emerge whch seem to be about we are seeing. Of course, it would have been more predictive to do this before we had some results so I couldn't fix the assumptions (accidentally or inadvertently), but oh well!
Rough probabilities of winning a ticket at all seem to be:
If you bid $240, 14%
If you bid $320, 41%
If you bid $390, 95%
I could be quite wrong, of course. There do seem to be some results on our yahoogroups and on our facebook page "SiliconVillageBurners" that seem to correlate with this a little bit. You be the judge. More results, the spreadsheet and an explanation can be found at our new webpage http://www.siliconvillageburners.org Hope useful.
