All of those good stamps that we have been offering and selUng you over the past many years didn't just happen -they are the result of careful buying on our part. The rapidly increasing demand for stamps over the past two years has created a real challenge for us to find and buy more good material to offer our customers. It seems that the more we buy, the more we sell/ This may sound a bit like going around in a circle, but at least it is a good circle for everyone, not one of these "vicious" circles that we hear so much about/ All of this demand for good stamps does nothing but good for the seller. It ensures that he will obtain the proper market price for his collection. We are meeting the challenge by paying prices for good collections which no one would have dreamed possible even one year ago. If you are selling your collection you may approach us with confidence - we would like to prove our point to you that we are good buyers. ~eorge ~.

    Flooding and Landslide Events Northern British Columbia 1820-2006 _____________________________________________________________ D. Septer Province of British Columbia Ministry of Environment CONTENTS 1 Introduction 2 Scope 3 Information reliability 4 Organization of storm events 5 Community flooding and landslide archive 6 Chronological list of flooding and landslide events Appendices 1 Geographical index by rivers, creeks and lakes. 2 Geographical index by community. 3 Reported fatalities caused by slope failures and snow avalanches in northern British Columbia. Literature cited 2 1 Introduction Weather is one of the most common topics of conversation. Landslides, snow avalanches and flooding events may have devastating impacts on property and can result in the loss of human life. A clear understanding of the magnitude and frequency of landslides, flooding and storm events may help in project planning, emergency planning and risk assessment. Thus the importance of storms, which create such events, will be of interest to a wide audience ranging from emergency measure planners and foresters to engineers and historians. 2 Scope Historical information on weather events and their impacts is scattered throughout many different sources, including newspapers, technical reports and streamflow records. The intent of this report is to produce a chronological list of flooding and landslide events in the northern part of British Columbia. The area covered is north of a straight line running from Bella Bella in the west over Williams Lake and Blue River to the Rocky Mountains in the east. Some weather events causing fatalities in the adjacent Alaska panhandle have been included in the report. 3 Information reliability News coverage of extreme storm events and subsequent damage may vary considerably in detail and accuracy.
