A private burial is planned. STORE: Skaters find what they need at Next Generation CONTINUED FROM PAGE A1 It all happened very quickly Hickey added. We both knew that Fremont needed a skate shop Next Generation opened in late 2005 and features a wide range of specialty products that cant be found anywhere else in Fremont. The shop carries skateboards, equipment, accessories, helmets and exclusive shirts, shoes and hats. This allowed the shop to appeal to a variety of customers, Hickey said.

The shop became a quick success and a welcomed commodity among area skaters, he said. Business has been great so far Hickey said. Some people drive up to 45 minutes just to here. Weve been impressed by how much the skaters have taken care of it, Walter said. They do a great job of policing themselves Although there are no current plans to expand the skate park, there has been consideration of adding a separate area for BMX riders, Walter said.

The BMX riders arent totally compatible at Miller Park, Walter pointed out. Wed like to accommodate them as well. BMX riders perform stunts on ramps and half-pipes, much the same way skateboarders do. As far a expanding the skate shop, Hickey said hes not going to rush. He said his main focus now is to provide a positive influence and do all he can to help the Fremont skate scene grow and evolve.

Schaefer said women tend to put themselves last and take care of everyone elses needs. Women tend to establish the health trend for the rest of the household, Schaefer said. We are the health-care choosers, Schaefer said. We make the health-care decisions by and large in the families. Women must be sure to take time to rest, learn about nutrition and exercise, Schaefer said.

Its knowing, its modeling, its what you buy at the grocery store, she said.

The report, released Friday at the 12th annual Womens Health Symposium, urged women to lose weight, get active and eat better.

Were 48th in the country for five-a-day fruits and vegetables, said Dr. Joann Schaefer, the states chief medical officer. She said people in general are living busier lives and dont take the time to pay proper attention to their health. She said reducing obesity rates is critical to preventing health problems such as diabetes, heart disease and some forms of cancer. By 2008, 75 percent of Americans will be overweight or obese, Schaefer said.

Being overweight cuts years and quality from lives. Schaefer said Nebraska women tend to live longer than the national average, to about 81 years. But many of those years are plagued with chronic disease, Schaefer said. And so if youre spending a lot of your time dealing with those diseases that impede the quality of the life that youre living, then thats not a good thing. SEEK SHELTER TODAY!

In October, marine biologist Philippe Bouchet and Bertrand Richer De Forges found the new species of the same living fossil group while trolling an undersea plateau in a remote area between Australia and New Caledonia. Along with running the shop, Hickey has become the go-to guy for local skaters seeking help or advice. Pat was really helpful, said skater and PVemont High School junior Chris Jones.

I bought a skateboard from Next Generation and he put grip tape on it for me. I try to help, everyone out the best I can, Hickey said. I think I might stand out among a lot of skate shop owners because I love what I do and want to contribute to the community Among those contributions is an upcoming Summer Kick Off event that Hickey will host from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. May 29.

The event will include barbecue and a game of Skate (similar to Horse in basketball). The event is open to the public. Caledonia, the National Museum of Natural History and the Research Institute for Development said in a statement. Another so-called living fossil from the Neoglyphea group was discovered in 1908 in the Philippines by the U.S. Albatross, a research vessel.
