Alcohol Abuse Advice

Des Moines, Iowa; May 24, 2010 — A local hotel worker found the bassist dead this morning. Paul Gray, known as #2, or “The Pig” in the self-titled years, the lively bassist from Los Angeles who relocated with family to Des Moines and joined Slipknot and has played for the entire Slipknot career up to this point. Paul had a darker side to his life, dealing with drugs and alcohol abuse. It was announced on his MySpace page this year that he was expecting a child with his wife Brenna. Life looked on the up for Paul. While currently under investigation, preliminary reports from a source at the scene indicate a drug overdose.

Clown came out and moshed with the crowd, and Pig had his pig mask on and was WICKED on the bass!

Therefore UNICEF, with funding from British Airways, came up with an innovative and successful way of giving young people a purpose and focus, by installing climbing walls in schools across the country. The walls quite literally help children find a foothold, at school, in the community and in life. The success of this project has been acknowledged by the Government. On seeing the benefits the 10 UNICEF-supported walls have brought to the lives of young people, the Government installed a further nine across the country. Funds raised through the Long Way Round have also been supporting UNICEF’s HIV and AIDS prevention work in Kazakhstan. Through these funds, UNICEF has been able to improve education services available to young people, such as …
