Building Rural Community Resilience Through Innovation and Entrepreneurship
Drawing from empirical analyses, case studies, and a synthesis of best practices, this book explores how innovation manifests itself in rural places and how it contributes to entrepreneurial development and resilience.Innovation in rural places may come about as a result of new forms of collaboration; policies that leverage rural assets and address critical service or product gaps; novel strategies for accessing financial capital; infusion of arts into aspects of community life; and cultivation of networks that bridge entrepreneurs, organizations, and institutions.The chapters illustrate how a number of innovation-related characteristics relate to economic vibrancy in rural places such as a strong connection to the arts, adaptive and sustainable use of natural resources, value-chain integrated food systems, robust bridging social capital networks, creative leveraging of technology, and presence of innovation-focused entrepreneurs.Through exploration of these and other topics, this book will provide insights and best practices for rural community and economic development scholars and practitioners seeking to strengthen the rural innovation ecosystem.

How does epoxy resin dry in a room temperature environment?
Epoxy resin dries in a room temperature environment through a chemical reaction between the resin and hardener components. When mixed together, the resin and hardener molecules cross-link and form strong bonds, causing the mixture to harden and cure over time. The curing process can take several hours to days, depending on the specific formulation of the epoxy resin. It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper mixing ratios and curing times to ensure a successful and durable finish.

It is recommended to pat wet hair dry instead of rubbing it dry. Rubbing hair vigorously with a towel can cause damage and breakage, especially when the hair is in a weakened state due to being wet. Patting hair gently with a towel helps to absorb excess water without causing unnecessary stress on the hair strands.

Why is dry food unhealthy and dry herbs healthy?
Dry food, particularly processed dry food for pets, is often unhealthy because it can be high in carbohydrates, fillers, and preservatives. These can lead to obesity, diabetes, and other health issues. On the other hand, dry herbs are healthy because they retain their natural nutrients and medicinal properties. When herbs are dried properly, they can be used to enhance flavor in cooking and provide various health benefits, such as anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Overall, the processing and ingredients in dry food versus dry herbs contribute to their respective health effects.

Is the dry-erase marker no longer dry-erase?
If the dry-erase marker is no longer writing or erasing properly, it may be dried out. Try shaking the marker and pressing the tip on a hard surface to see if that helps. If the marker still doesn't work, it may be time to replace it with a new one. Alternatively, you can try using a damp cloth or dry-erase board cleaner to see if that helps improve the marker's performance.

Doesn't caramel dry?
Caramel does not dry in the traditional sense like water-based substances do. Caramel is made by heating sugar until it melts and turns into a thick, sticky liquid. As it cools, it solidifies but remains soft and chewy. However, if caramel is exposed to air for an extended period of time, it can harden and become more brittle.

Can liquid dry?
No, liquid cannot dry. Drying is the process of removing moisture from a substance, and liquid is already in a state of being wet or containing moisture. However, a liquid can evaporate, which is the process of turning into a gas. This can happen when the liquid is heated or exposed to air, causing the molecules to gain enough energy to escape into the air.

Is it good to use dry shampoo on dry hair?
It is generally not recommended to use dry shampoo on completely dry hair. Dry shampoo is designed to absorb excess oil and refresh the hair between washes, so it is most effective when used on hair that has some natural oils present. Applying dry shampoo to dry hair can result in a powdery or chalky residue that is difficult to blend in, and it may not effectively absorb oil. It is best to use dry shampoo on hair that is slightly oily or greasy for the best results.
