Home Builder Developer - Interior Renovation and Design

Renie Clark, right, and Sally Walling, left, look over one of the teddy bears that Clark knits at her home in the Cala Springs Mobile Home Park on Northeast 14th Street in Ocala, Fla. on Wednesday, Jan. 7, 2015. Clark crafts dolls and teddy bears and gives them to people in assisted living facilities, at the domestic violence shelter and other locations.

Renie Clark views her doll restoring efforts not as a hobby but as a ministry. The dolls are given to residents of local health care facilities and women at the domestic violence shelter.

The concept is reinforced by Howard Speights, activities director at Ocala Avante Nursing Home, one of the recipients of Clark's talents.

Those dolls do something for my residents like nothing else I ever have seen, Speights said. These are long-term residents who can't step outside of their rooms to socialize. The dolls take them back to their childhood, it opens them up and brings broads smiles to their faces. It brings my residents a whole lot of joy. They hold their dolls with a real sense of ownership as if they were their most treasured possession. The dolls then become a focal point for our staff to relate to those who before had very little conversation at all.

The Cala Springs home Clark shares with her husband, Harold, is a doll paradise. A tiny clothesline hangs above the washer and dryer to hold the clothes she makes and repairs on her state-of-the-art sewing machine, a gift from Harold.

I wore out two others, Clark said of the sewing machine.

One bedroom is devoted to brightly colored materials, yarn and other items essential for repairs. Dolls in various stages of completion are displayed throughout the home.

When asked how her husband co-exists with the large number of dolls, Clark grinned and said, I'm very happy when I am sewing and a little cranky when I am not; he wants me happy.

The value of using dolls to reach nursing home residents was further explained by David Huckabee, who provides area residents with programs, education and support services from the Central and North Florida Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association.

No matter whom you are, what your age is, what your limitations may be, everyone wants a purpose, Huckabee said. A purpose in life can enhance the quality of life. The restored dolls being donated can serve as a reminder of when these resident women may have cared for their children, and may be a way for them to offer attention and nurture to something else.

When Wes Lokey began rehabilitation following his first heart attack, he remembers working out in a very small room.

It was upstairs and couldnt fit more than three or four patients at a time, said Lokey, 64 of Albany. I was there twice a week.

Lokeys workouts come with a little more elbow room these days, thanks to a complete remodel of the Cardiac and Pulmonary Rehabilitation Center adjacent to Samaritan Albany General Hospital on Elm Street S.W.

For Lokey, who has worked out at the cardiac center for 15 years, the new area is a welcome change.

It offers a lot more, said Lokey. Its more room that lets more people take part. Rehab is as much about support as anything.

Lokey spends his time using one of the many treadmills and working out with weights.

I feel good working out here. Its certainly nicer and brings in more people, he said.

Angie Gallagher, who has been the Cardiac Rehabilitation manager since it opened in 1998, has seen plenty of changes over the years.

This is really our fourth remodel, but this gives us so many options, she said. The staff and our patients love it. Aesthetically it is a great improvement.

Gallagher said the makeover provides a 40-percent overall increase in space, including 33 percent more gym space for patients. There is no additional equipment at this time, but that could change.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - LeBron James declined to speak to reporters after Clevelands latest loss without him. His Cavaliers teammates had another quiet night, too.

DeMarcus Cousins had 26 points and 13 rebounds and the Sacramento Kings beat Cleveland 103-84 on Sunday, handing the Cavaliers their seventh loss in eight games with James out with a strained back and sore left knee.

Cleveland has lost five straight and is 1-8 in its last nine games to drop to 19-19. The Cavaliers fell behind by 15 points in the second quarter and the Kings maintained a double-digit lead.

They came out and punched us in the mouth. The first time we got into a double-digit deficit we just hung out heads, said Kevin Love, who had 25 points and 10 rebounds.

In addition to James absence, the Cavaliers are playing for a new coach, adjusting to offseason moves and the additions last week of JR Smith and Timofey Mozgov.

Were going through a lot of trials and tribulations, a lot of changes, Cleveland coach David Blatt said. Were making adjustments on the fly. Tonight was definitely not a step forward. It wasnt a good performance, you cant sugar coat it.

Kyrie Irving had 21 points and had seven assists for Cleveland. Mozgov, acquired from Denver last week, had 14 points and 12 rebounds.

LeBron being out, thats 27 points we have to make up every game, said Irving, who was ineffective after hitting four 3s and scoring 14 first-quarter points.

Smith struggled after scoring 27 points in his second game since joining Cleveland in a trade with New York. He had four points on 2-of-10 shooting in 30 minutes.

Rudy Gay added 23 points for Sacramento. Darren Collison had 16, and Carl Landry 11.

[WARNING! POTENTIALBATMAN V SUPERMANSPOILERS AHEAD!]

Fans of all things Dark Knight and Man of Steel already know that a rumor buzzing around the internet claims thatBatman V Superman: Dawn of Justicemight be split into two filmswith Part 1:Enter the Knightarriving on October 23, 2015 and Part 2:Dawn of Justiceon the films previously confirmed date in March 25, 2016.

Our only source for this was an image which appeared online and quickly spread across the interwebs like a Kryptonian virus. It seemed wildly unlikely that Warner Bros./DC Comics would pull a move like this, but then again, 2015 will be completely void of any big screen DCU entries could there have been a shred of truth to this development? According to Superman himself, Henry Cavill: Nope.

Cavill recently attended a BAFTA party in Los Angeles, and according toVarietys Ramin Setoodeh, (hat tip to CBM)Cavill denied the two-part rumor, among other comments onBvS.

Setoodeh tweeted the following regarding the films potential split into two parts:
