Showboat (music by Jerome Kern and lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein) – 1929 On the Mississippi River, the showboat, Cotton Blossom, carries a young 18 year old girl named Magnolia Hawkes; the showboat’s lead actress, Julie LaVerne; the cook, Queenie; and Queenie’s husband, a dock worker named Joe. Soon after the musical begins, Magnolia meets and falls in love with a riverboat gambler. Unsure what to do about this, Magnolia asks Joe for advice and then quickly runs back to the boat. Joe suggests that she should have asked someone else: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yyJtGNk9iEU Back on the riverboat, Magnolia speaks to Julie, who, with input from Queenie, tries to explain the complications that come with loving someone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPR3X9AjhaU 2.Carousel (Rodgers and Hammerstein) – 1945 Though they try not to, a simple girl named Julie Jordan and a tough carousel barker, Billy Bigelow, fall in love: If I Loved You (The Bench Scene): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfCyUugiWm8&list=RDgfCyUugiWm8&start_radio=1 3.

Her favorite and more talented daughter, June, eventually becomes fed up and elopes with one of the chorus boys, leaving the act without its star. This leaves Rose with just one, less preferred daughter – a tomboy named Louise – on whom to pin her hopes. Based on a true life story, Louise would eventually become the stripper, Gypsy Rose Lee. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXl10a9gJwA

Describe the collection scenario (specific targets, timing, and method of collecting);

Prepare a multi-INT collection plan against all the targets defined in the scenario for analysts who are putting together products for senior leaders and operational commanders. The plan should follow this format: Describe the expected payoff, in terms of answers to the four sets of customer needs (counterterrorism, counter narcotics, military/counter proliferation, and weapons systems performance); Assess the risks associated with the collection effort; Describe the back end requirements to support the collected information; that is, what might you need to process the data, which might include translation of foreign language material, or processing and exploitation of technical collection. Develop a timeline for the use of the assets that you identify in this plan, and describe the communication among collectors that is required for the success of the effort. Additional notes on each INT: HUMINT Postulate the specific assets you propose to use (attaches, specific recruited sources or specific liaison sources, for example), and describe any additional features of the scenario that you think would be useful in your plan. You can create notional recruited assets to task. Describe these sources in detail but be realistic; do not use any of the Russian attendees as already recruited assets. COMINT Identify the sources and types of communications that might be collected, and likely value of information collected. Possible communications include, but are not limited to: cell phones; microwave point-point; push-to-talk (PTT) radios; fiber optic cable; wireless computer networks; and internet communications. Identify potential COMINT liaison organizations (COMINT services of friendly countries) that might be in a position to assist, considering geography and mutual interest in the target, and indicate how you would use them. IMINT Consider the following types of imagery: Optical, SAR, nighttime infrared, multispectral and hyper spectral imaging. Identify the imagery rating scale you are assuming for each imagery type. Assume that you can obtain imagery of the target from different aspects, both on land and while the vessel is underway on the water. MATERIALS AND MATERIELS Identify specific targets for materials or materiel collection and the intelligence that you expect to obtain from that target. Describe how you propose to collect the materiel or materials. MASINT AND BOUTIQUE COLLECTION Identify the target(s) and what you are expecting to collect. OSINT Be specific about the type and source of any open source material you plan to exploit. REQUIREMENTS: Analysts in the Community have provided the following Priority Intelligence Requirements for senior leaders and operational commanders: Counterterrorism: Representatives from the terrorist group Al Shaitan reportedly are interested in purchasing one of the craft to use for attacks on unspecified targets. An Al Shaitan cell is located somewhere in Singapore. Provide information on any contacts between the terrorist group and the Russians. Highest priority is learning Al Shaitans intended use of the craft, including intended targets. Next priority is on tracing the funding sources for the purchase. Counter narcotics: Several narcotics trafficking organizations are reportedly interested in the craft as a seaborne delivery platform for their product. Identify any such groups who contact the Russian delegation; their intended use of the platform, to include area of operation; and provide details on purchases made and delivery terms. Military/Counter proliferation: US DoD and Australian defense representatives have requested any details about planned sales of the craft to Indonesia, Pakistan or the Philippines. Include number of craft sold, terms of sale and planned delivery dates. Weapons Systems Performance: Provide details on the performance of the patrol craft (top speed, range, maneuverability, logistics support) and of the missiles (sensor type and performance, missile speed, operational profile, intended targets). Provide details on the reported stealth design, its effectiveness, and the hull materials used. Determine the type of propulsion system. The IMDEX Asia (International Maritime Defense Exhibition and Conference) is held every two years at the Singapore Expo, 1 Expo Drive, Singapore. This year, a Russian delegation proposes to showcase a new patrol boat at IMDEX Asia. A Russian brochure says that the boat is an advanced type of a very fast patrol boat, highly maneuverable, and optionally equipped with a new anti-ship cruise missile. Reportedly the craft has a new hull design that employs stealth technology and a revolutionary propulsion system. The craft was designed by the Almaz Central Marine Design Bureau of St. Petersburg, Russia. The Russians plan to set up a booth at the exposition with pictures of the boat and the missile. Reportedly, the boats designer Sergeiy, and the missiles designer, Valeriy, and the sales representative, Viktor, will be at the booth during some times of the day. They may also be at the Russian hospitality suite in the Pan Pacific Singapore hotel during the evening. All Russian attendees are staying at the Pan Pacific Singapore Hotel. The boat itself is anchored in the center of Marina Bay, Singapore harbor, approximately 200 meters from the nearest shore. It has one live-aboard guard, Igor, who reportedly has a propensity for drink. When off-duty, Igor can be found at Harrys Bar on Boat Quay, a sleazy nightspot that features a live jazz band and jam sessions. Over the next two days, the boat will be taken out in the Straits of Malacca for a test demonstration of its speed and maneuverability. You have received reports that the Russians plan to use the craft to conduct a live anti-ship missile firing demonstration for their guests against a dummy target located in the Straits of Malacca. The guests, who will be on board during the test, include representatives of all the potential customer groups which could include terrorists, narcotics traffickers, and military officers from Indonesia, Pakistan, and the Philippines, all interested in the craft for their own purposes. Additional information: COMINT between the development facility in St. Petersburg and its test facility located near Kaspiysk, on the Caspian Sea has revealed that the craft was tested on the Caspian Sea.

Explain both sides of a controversy from a psychological perspective. (This should be done within your introduction.) Analyze the research on the controversy from differing perspectives.

Example Assessment You may use the assessment example, linked in the Assessment Example section of the Resources, to give you an idea of what a Proficient or higher rating on the scoring guide would look like. Preparation Imagine that the annotated bibliography you completed in Assessment 5 was so good that your supervisor has now asked you to write her presentation for her. The presentation must address a controversy in psychology and present both sides of the controversy equally. But you will also need to determine which side makes the most compelling argument based on the research you have found. Please be sure you use the same topic you selected in Assessment 5. Use the resources from your annotated bibliography. Although you may find that not all of the articles from the bibliography will provide the support you need for this assessment, you will still need to cite and reference at least five recent scholarly resources. Follow APA guidelines for formatting this assessment, and include an abstract. Requirements Write an APA-formatted article on a controversy in psychology in which you: Present one side of the controversy and the research that supports it. Be sure you explain how the research was conducted, as well as any assumptions made by the researcher(s). Present the other side of the controversy and the research that supports it. Explain how the research was conducted, as well as any assumptions made by the researcher(s). Explain the implications of the research findings. Be sure you include any ethical implications. (This should be done as part of your conclusion.) Additional Requirements Include a title page, abstract, and reference page. Number of pages: 46 of content, in addition to a title page, an abstract, and a references page. At least 5 current scholarly or professional resources.
