Columbia is the capital of and largest city in the U.S. state of South Carolina, with a population of 129,272 as of the 2010 United States Census. As of July 1, 2013, the city's population was estimated to be 133,358 (U.S. Census Bureau, July 2014 release). The name Columbia was a poetic term used for the United States, originating from the name of Christopher Columbus. Columbia is home to the University of South Carolina, the state's flagship and largest university, and is also the site of Fort Jackson, the largest United States Army installation for Basic Combat Training. In 1860, the city was the location of the South Carolina Secession Convention, which marked the departure of the first state from the Union in the events leading up to the Civil War.
Downtown revitalization
The city of Columbia has recently accomplished a number of urban redevelopment projects and has several more planned.[27] The historic Congaree Vista, a 1,200-acre (5 km2) district running from the central business district toward the Congaree river, features a number of historic buildings that have been rehabilitated since its revitalization begun in the late 1980s. Of note is the adaptive reuse of the Confederate Printing Plant on Gervais and Huger, used to print Confederate bills during the American Civil War. The city cooperated with Publix grocery stores to preserve the look. This won Columbia an award from the International Downtown Association.[28] The Vista district is also where the region's convention center and anchor Hilton hotel with a Ruth's Chris Steakhouse restaurant are located. Other notable developments under construction and recently completed include high-end condos and townhomes, hotels, and mixed-use structures.
The older buildings lining the Vista's main drag, Gervais, now house art galleries, restaurants, unique shops, and professional office space. Near the end of Gervais is the South Carolina State Museum and the EdVenture Children's Museum. Private student housing and some residential projects are going up nearby; the CanalSide development[29] at the site of the old Central Correctional Institution, is the most high profile. At full build-out, the development will have 750 residential units and provides access to Columbia's waterfront. Lady Street between Huger and Assembly streets in the Vista and the Five Points neighborhood have undergone beautification projects, which mainly consisted of replacing curbs and gutters, and adding brick-paved sidewalks and angled parking.
Economy
Columbia enjoys a diversified economy, with the major employers in the area being South Carolina state government, the Palmetto Health hospital system, Blue Cross Blue Shield of South Carolina, Palmetto GBA, and the University of South Carolina. The corporate headquarters of Fortune 1000 energy company, SCANA, are located in the Columbia suburb of Cayce. Other major employers in the Columbia area include Computer Sciences Corporation, Fort Jackson, the U.S. Army's largest and most active initial entry training installation,[25] Richland School District One, Humana/TriCare, and the United Parcel Service, which operates its Southeastern Regional Hub at the Columbia Metropolitan Airport. Major manufacturers such as Square D, CMC Steel, Spirax Sarco, Michelin, International Paper, Pirelli Cables, Honeywell, Westinghouse Electric, Harsco Track Tech, Trane, Intertape Polymer Group, Union Switch & Signal, FN Herstal, Solectron, and Bose Technology have facilities in the Columbia area. There are over 70 foreign affiliated companies and fourteen Fortune 500 companies in the region. The gross domestic product (GDP) of the Columbia metropolitan statistical area as of 2010 was $31.97 billion, the highest among MSAs in the state.[26]

Fort Columbia Guardian of the great river Part 1
Fort Columbia is one of three fortifications built by the United States to guard and defend the mouth of the Columbia river. Erected during the period when wars were fought only on the ground and on the sea, it was declared obsolete after World War II.
In 1950 the Fort Columbia Military Reservation was transferred to the State of Washington to be preserved as Fort Columbia Historical State Park.
Virtually intact except for it's armament, Fort Columbia remains in appearance a typical coast artillery post of the late 1890's and early 1900's.
This video details the history of the fort and how it functioned including rare footage of the disappearing guns being fired.

Columbia State Celebrates 50 Years!
On June 30, 1965 Tennessee Commissioner of Education J. Howard Warf selected the 204-acre Hickman farm in Columbia, Tennessee as the location to build the state’s first community college. A groundbreaking ceremony was held on October 20, 1965 and Columbia State Community College was officially founded in 1966.
A “Dedication Day” was held on March 15, 1967, over 8,000 supporters gathered to watch Lady Bird Johnson unveil the dedication plaque. She was joined onstage by her husband, President Lyndon B. Johnson.
Lady Bird declared Columbia State to be the “new beat and rhythm of our land” and that “when a community college rises from a once empty field, the country expands not outward, but upward… I am honored to dedicate this college - dedicate it forever to the service of the people and the progress of our nation.”
Many who still live in Columbia and the surrounding area love to share fond remembrances of that day and tell their own personal stories of how Columbia State has impacted their lives. Join us and our surrounding communities as we celebrate 50 years of excellent higher education opportunities!

Border Crossing At The Peace Arch State Park Between Canada And The USA In HD
The Peace Arch Park and border crossing is a popular entry point into the United States/Canada located on the border between northwest Washington State and British Columbia in Blaine Washington. The Peace Arch Crossing allows people to wander the park on both sides of the border without going through customs and get a feel for the differences in both countries.
It is also an interesting place to see a portion of one of the largest unprotected borders in the world. But unprotected doesn't mean it isn't monitored and patrolled. It is just not militarized. There are plenty of cameras, sensors and border agents on patrol to stop any illegal activity.
The Peace Arch Border crossing where most Canadians come through when visiting Seattle or just coming south for a shopping day trip.

What Would Happen if “The BIG ONE” (Earthquake) Hits the WEST COAST
When most people think of the “Big One,” they often think about an earthquake caused by the San Andreas Fault. However, there’s actually a more dangerous fault called the Cascadia Subduction Zone. The Cascadia Subduction Zone, also known as the Cascadia Fault, is almost 700 miles long and stretches the west coast of North America from Vancouver Island to Northern California. For some perspective, an earthquake caused by the San Andreas Fault could reach 8.3 on the Richter scale, but a Cascadia earthquake will be more like a 9.2. That means that the quake could shake for up to four and a half minutes.
