Something needs to be done. We had no idea, not the slightest inkling that Riley was struggling at all," he said. As long-time friends and collaborators, Rox and Riley got thinking about what these mythical underwater creatures might look like, intertwined with their surroundings, beautiful to the point of myth. It comes folded, which means for initial assembly you have to watch a video tutorial before you do anything.

And I think parents need to know that it is not obvious. I thought he was living his best life at the time, recording his music, playing in the band. He clearly wasn't. And we weren’t a family who did not communicate. Probably the biggest weakness most budget and mid-range electric scooters have is the brakes. I’ve tested more than my share of e-scooters, and I’ve found that even some of the best ones can’t implement their braking system as well as they should. That isn’t the case with the RS3. Testing the Riley Scooters RS3 was a slightly different process than testing other folding scooters because of its folding mechanism. I spent quite a bit of time trying to familiarize myself with its folding process by watching the tutorial video several times and practicing, then trying to figure out different ways to simplify the process. I also tested that process out in public to see how convenient it is to do when users are out of their comfort zone. I will always remember Riley as being a really cool guy – friendly, caring to everyone and he deserves to be remembered for being a great musician and an amazing friend,” Llewan said.Despite some genuine progress, and a whole bunch of greenwashing, it is still very difficult to be environmentally conscious and sustainable in the beauty industry. Committed to doing her bit and making a change is make-up artist Crystabel Riley . The girl's father, Kevin Fox, was initially charged based on a coerced confession. He spent eight months in jail before being cleared by DNA evidence showing that someone else had committed the crime. [3]

All these things only changed because they were called out. There are some really ugly sides to the beauty industry and if there isn’t transparency then there is potential for problems. The vegan make-up movement saw a massive increase in use of Carnauba wax which was being harvested under ‘slave’ conditions. So we need to keep an eye on everything and keep making sure we are paying for the luxury of simple fairness and quality of ingredients, quality of soil, and quality of life. For me, it’s just really bad karma all over your face. I live on a 25-grade hill, and going downhill on a new e-scooter I’m testing for the first time is always scary as I don’t know just how effective its braking system is. I didn’t have that experience with the RS3. I definitely feel confident going downhill on this thing. I wish that the folding mechanisms were a lot more elegant, but overall the Riley Scooters RS3 is one of the best electric scooters I’ve tested. a b Smith, Bryan.

There are some not-so-obvious compromises here like its short 15.5-mile range and the smaller 8.5-inch pneumatic tires (though I suspect the latter has more to do with making it as compact as possible). However, it’s still surprising how affordable it is considering everything it has on offer.

The only thing about this is that the initial unfolding does take longer. Unless you’ve done it many times, unfolding the electric scooter isn’t very intuitive or straightforward. So, before doing anything else, you must watch the folding and unfolding video that Riley Scooters has thoughtfully created for first-time users. And, you might have to play it again as you’re going through the motions. Taking a principled and conscientious approach to her practice, Riley – who has collaborated with publications including Dazed and Beauty Papers , and industry big-wigs like Juergen Teller and Robbie Spencer – works almost exclusively with ethical and vegan brands, and is taking steps towards being zero waste. It’s an ethos she applies to both her personal life and work.

It’s not just the environment that has benefited from this approach, but the creativity of her work as well. It has pushed her to be more resourceful when it comes to what is thought of as make-up. From sea salt to sand, Riley has expanded the parameters of her beauty kit to include materials and natural ingredients. “By attempting to be conscious in my approach and what materials I’m willing to contribute to landfill, or down the drain, it has also led me to have a more expansive approach to what I want to work with,” she says. You can say to your friends: ‘look, I’m struggling here mate’. 'Macho man' has gone – talk to someone, talk to your parents; they’re not the enemy, they’re on your side.” Later that day Riley was found dead in Forsythe Woods County Forest Preserve, a public park a few miles from Wilmington. She was found face down in a creek, having been bound, gagged, and sexually assaulted before being drowned.

Also approach the products you use, your materials, as only a starting point, and share with your community to reduce waste and build your materials in a responsible way.

The Haze plans to release its new album – Chasing Lullabies – after the concert, which will contain songs featuring Riley’s pre-recorded guitar notes. Its foldability, which allows it to collapse into this very compact and easy-to-carry form, is the highlight of its design.
