Legacy Coach Inc. is owned by Brandon Blythe and located in Rockwell, Texas. Brandon has been in love with coaches since age 8 when the small excitable boy emphatically asked his parents for a motor home for his Birthday. Though it was not quite what he pictured, his parents bought him a Coleman pop-up camper. All of his spare time went to caring for, improving, and camping in that little Coleman camper. For years to come, through camping trips with the family, to road trips with best friends, Brandon and his pop-up made memories. In 2006 after years of being in the motor home industry, Brandon followed his dream, and formed Legacy...

Birthing of a Vision
posted by Region Faith
First Baptist of Dallas is birthing a vision they’ve held since 1868. Dallas in the mid-1800s was one wild and reckless burg. Several Baptist churches were run out of town before eight women and three men formed our determined little congregation and put down roots in 1868. Our first building on Akard cost a whopping $6,000. We soon outgrew it. The cornerstone of the historic sanctuary where we worship today was laid in 1890. The campus now covers six city blocks. That definitely puts us in the category of large churches; however, one thing our members have been able to do through the past century and a half is maintain the feeling of a...

The Twitter Tragedy
posted by Region Business
To become a successful company, it’ll have to kill the openness that makes it great. It’s unusual for a corporate blog post filled with bureaucratic language to cause an Internet uproar, but that’s exactly what happened last week when Twitter published an item with this innocuous-sounding headline “Changes coming in Version 1.1 of the Twitter API.” None of the changes Twitter mentions, taken in isolation, seems like a big deal. But in the aggregate, they’re seen as an aggressive move against once-friendly collaborators, the third-party developers who use Twitter’s application programming interface to write apps like Tweetbot...

We must remember every innocent victim, every brave rescuer and every brave hero, who died in honor. As the 11th year anniversary of the September 11th 2001 murderous terrorist attack arrives, certainly many people feel that the events of that day must never be forgotten. I personally hope in some way that in our 21st century where everything is expected yesterday, and it seems that many of our attention spans are often less than the length of a 30 minute sitcom or the length of a 140 character tweet. We will never… NEVERforget the cowardly and demonic acts that were perpetrated against our country, our freedoms and...

Netflix slammed as rival Amazon inks movie deal. Shares of online video company Netflix are taking a battering Tuesday, lately down 7 percent at $55, on news that rival Amazon.com has inked a distribution deal with Viacom’s Epix premium cable network. The Epix deal with Amazon comes days after Netflix’s exclusive deal with Epix expired, and it “gives Amazon Prime members a lot less reason to also have a Netflix subscription,” R. J. Hottovy, an analyst with Morningstar, said of the Amazon-Epix deal. The Amazon deal with Epix doubles the number of movies in Amazon’s library, and demonstrates the online...

How the Mavs Could Land Al Jefferson
posted by Region Sports
Eddie Sefko takes a look at the Mavericks’ chances of landing Al Jefferson. Point guard Deron Williams’ snub – choosing to stay with the Brooklyn Nets – stung the Mavericks, but that doesn’t mean the results will be the same next summer, when Dallas figures to have at least as much salary cap flexibility as it did at the start of this offseason. Either way, it won’t keep the Mavericks from taking another big swing at a superstar-level player — or perhaps two of them. Utah’s Al Jefferson is agile enough to cope with virtually any of the new-era hybrid centers. (AP) In the fourth installment of a series on the most...

Europe Through U.S. Eyes

Europe is a shrinking slice of the global economic pie In American eyes, Europe is history - which is why the United States finds it especially annoying that the continent is causing the world economy to slow down. It is difficult for a European fully to appreciate how peripheral the continent now appears in American eyes. I have just returned from New York and was surprised to discover the extent to which Europe is seen as irrelevant – except possibly as a source of scenic holiday destinations and, of course, a splendid backdrop for the Olympics.Admittedly there is an inconsistency. At the same time as treating us as...
