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.

Everyday Life-Environmentalism : Community Sustainability and Resilience in Asia
This book provides one of the first systematic introductions to the Japanese concept of life-environmentalism, Seikatsu-Kankyo Shugi.This concept emerged in the 1980s as a shared research framework among Japanese social scientists studying the adverse consequences of postwar industrialization on everyday life in communities. Life-environmentalism offers a lens through which the agency of small communities in sustaining their everyday life and living environment can be understood.The book provides an overview of this approach, including intellectual backgrounds and foundational concepts, along with a variety of empirical case studies that examine environmental and sustainability issues in Japan and other parts of Asia.It also includes critical reflections on the approach in light of contemporary sustainability challenges.The empirical topics covered in the book include local community responses to development projects, resource governance, disaster response and recovery, and historical environmental preservation.The chapters are contributed by researchers working at the forefront of the field.It provides only a glimpse into the vast literature that awaits further exploration and engagement in the future. The book is suitable for upper undergraduate students, graduate students, and researchers interested in environmental problems, sustainability and resilience, disaster mitigation and response, and regional development in Asian contexts, particularly Japan.It is well-suited for courses in anthropology, geography, sociology, urban and regional planning, political science, Asian studies, and environmental studies.

What is the tension of a tension conductor?
The tension of a tension conductor refers to the force or stress applied to the conductor in order to keep it taut and in place. This tension is necessary to prevent the conductor from sagging or vibrating excessively, which could lead to damage or failure. The tension of a tension conductor is carefully calculated and maintained to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the electrical transmission or distribution system.
-
What is the tension in a tension conductor?
The tension in a tension conductor is the force exerted on the conductor due to the pulling or stretching of the material. This force is necessary to keep the conductor in place and support any loads that it may be carrying. The tension in a tension conductor is typically calculated based on the weight of the load it is supporting and the angle at which the load is pulling on the conductor.
-
Pressure or tension force?
Pressure is a force exerted uniformly over a surface, while tension is a force that is transmitted through a rope, cable, or other similar objects. Pressure is typically measured in units of force per unit area, such as Pascals, while tension is measured in units of force. Both forces can cause deformation or changes in shape in an object, but pressure acts in all directions while tension acts along the direction of the object.

What is ski tension?
Ski tension refers to the amount of pressure or force exerted on the ski base by the binding and the skier's weight. It is an important factor in determining the ski's performance and responsiveness on the snow. The right amount of ski tension allows for optimal control and maneuverability, while too much or too little tension can affect the ski's ability to grip the snow and transfer energy efficiently. Adjusting ski tension can help customize the ski's performance to suit different snow conditions and skiing styles.

Diversity and Welfare Provision : Tension and Discrimination in 21st Century Britain
Recognising diverse groups within society is a vital part of policy research and analysis, yet few texts have drawn together the breadth of experiences of welfare provision from a diverse group of citizens. This book fills this gap, by exploring how diverse citizens experience welfare provision.It aims to promote debate about the importance of social divisions in society and to address the gaps in research, in relation to race, ethnicity, disability, gender and LGBTQ+. It comes at a crucial time as we emerge out of a decade of austerity, a global pandemic and Brexit, where issues of diversity have been at the forefront of debates, and renews the call for analysis within social policy, particularly on issues of diversity in the 21st century context.

Tension
2023 sees Kylie release 'Tension'; a record of euphoric, empowered dance floor bangers and sultry pop cuts. The album is eleven tracks of unabashed pleasure-seeking, seize-the-moment, joyful pop tunes with the hypnotic electro of 'Padam Padam' opening the album. Discussing 'Tension', Kylie says, 'I started this album with an open mind and a blank page. Unlike my last two albums there wasn't a 'theme', it was about finding the heart or the fun or the fantasy of that moment and always trying to service the song. I wanted to celebrate each song's individuality and to dive into that freedom. I would say it's a blend of personal reflection, club abandon and melancholic high'.

Muscle pump or tension?
The choice between muscle pump and tension depends on your fitness goals. Muscle pump refers to the temporary increase in muscle size and vascularity during a workout, which can provide a satisfying feeling of fullness and tightness in the muscles. On the other hand, tension refers to the sustained contraction and engagement of the muscles, which is essential for building strength and muscle mass over time. If your goal is to achieve a temporary aesthetic effect and improve muscle endurance, muscle pump may be more appealing. However, if you are focused on building strength and muscle size, prioritizing tension in your workouts would be more beneficial.

What are tension headaches?
Tension headaches are a common type of headache characterized by a dull, aching pain and a sensation of tightness or pressure around the head. They can be caused by muscle tension in the head, neck, and shoulders, as well as stress, anxiety, and poor posture. Tension headaches are often described as a band-like pressure around the head and can last from 30 minutes to several days. They are usually not severe and do not typically cause nausea or vomiting.

What destroys surface tension?
Surface tension can be destroyed by adding substances known as surfactants or surface-active agents. These substances disrupt the cohesive forces between water molecules at the surface, causing the surface tension to decrease. Surfactants have a hydrophilic (water-attracting) end and a hydrophobic (water-repelling) end, which allows them to interact with both water and other substances, effectively reducing the surface tension. Common examples of surfactants include soaps, detergents, and oils.
