Endangered rock art: Forty years of cultural heritage Management in the Quinkan region, Cape York Peninsula
Australian Archaeology, 2012Co-Authors: Noelene Cole, Alice BuhrichAbstract:This paper reviews a changing scenario of cultural heritage Management in the Quinkan region, Cape York Peninsula, currently experiencing unprecedented pressures from tourism and mining. From 1971 State and Federal governments acted to address concerns over protecting Quinkan rock art from modern impacts such as tourism: Gresley Holding (locally known as Crocodile Station) received statutory recognition as a declared 'Aboriginal site', the Quinkan Reserves were created, and 'Quinkan Country' was listed on the (now defunct) Register of the National Estate. In the 1990s the Quinkan Reserves were transferred to Aboriginal Land Trusts, and the local Aboriginal corporation received intermittent government grants to help manage tourism. In 2004 the State government opened an interpretive centre in Laura as a tourism initiative without providing for a Visitor Management System. Today, virtually the entire Quinkan region is affected by applications for minerals and coal exploration. The outstanding heritage values of the Quinkan region are threatened by this potential mining development, coupled with expanding tourism, and traditional owners are struggling to manage their cultural heritage. It is not clear how current heritage legislation, environmental codes and the status of 'Gresley Pastoral Holding-Crocodile Station' as a Declared Landscape Area (DLA002) will be applied to protect the area into the future.

A Strategic Approach to Sustainable Tourism Development Using the A’WOT Hybrid Method: A Case Study of Zonguldak, Turkey
Sustainability, 2019Co-Authors: Nermin KişiAbstract:Nowadays, tourism-led economic growth has become a major outcome of the public policy. Researchers have recently begun to address the development of tourism from a perspective that is based on economic, cultural, social, and environmental sustainability. This paper aims at presenting a strategic approach that can help to develop sustainable tourism at touristic destinations. In order to pursue our aim, the A’WOT (AHP-SWOT) hybrid method, developed in combination with SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis and the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method, was used. SWOT analysis was used to determine the significant strategic factors, and the AHP method was applied to prioritize these factors. The province of Zonguldak, located in Northwest Turkey, was chosen as the research area to suggest tourism strategies that can be sustainable by means of the application of the A’WOT method. Proposed strategies for the research area are related to product diversification and event Management, the image of the destination, a sustainable Visitor Management System, promotion and branding strategies, partnerships, and cooperation. The results illustrate that the dependent economic structure may be broken down with the development of the tourism industry and, therefore, that some strategic initiatives are required to achieve sustainable tourism in the province.

Active shooter: common-sense thinking, common-sense planning or in other words … thinking outside the box
Handbook of Loss Prevention and Crime Prevention, 2020Co-Authors: Lawrence J. Fennelly, Marianna A. Perry, Caroline Ramsey-hamiltonAbstract:Abstract This chapter on active shooter we worked on for over 6 months. It is a cancer that will not stop. Some of things discussed in this paper are gunshot detection software, “smart” gun, security assessment or safety audit, crime prevention through environmental design landscape security, quality of life. Target-hardening robots and drones on patrol social media, LinkedIn and Twitter, Visitor-Management System and access control background checks, common-sense thinking, common-sense planning, thinking outside the box, background checks, NRA, metal detectors, security surveillance Systems and locks for classroom doors, prerecorded message, protocol, and practice. In addition, we have two appendixes in this chapter, which we wish to include. The Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida HLS Report has been footnoted. The first weekend in August of 2019 we had back-to-back active shooters with 29 killed and dozens injured. The outcry started again when will something get done?
