The essay analyzes the entrepreneurial genius of Telford: Telford teaches me to ‘take the bull by the horn' and not to fear possible failure of the project or not to be intimidated by the novelty of my idea that – because it is new and different may be likely to fail. Telford's motto seems to be: Just do it. And this is wise advice, as long as it is accompanied by careful planning and thorough preparation. Telford also focused on the customer's needs rather than on the organizations' desires. He recognized that customers wanted a cheaper product. Fully in tune with the circumstances of his time, Telford connected this need with topical opportunity and was able to succeed particularly because he was not only able to think out of the box but was attuned to customers' desires all the time. Telford too persevered in working for acceptance of his product, and also important was the fact that Telford realized that both creativity and firmness had to be merged. In this way, Telford was no idealist: he was aware of social psychology and the way people functioned and used that in devising and implementing his ideas. Most importantly, what Telford teaches me is that having an idea is not the main thing. It has to be accompanied with implementation. Many people have ideas: it is implementation that actually makes inventions successful and it needs both to make an effective entrepreneur. Telford made and enforced business rules for the site, but at the same time he also knew his target market and promoted his products and advertising directly to them (and this is another lesson that Telford can teach me: to structure the invention with the target market in mind). Finally, Telford surrendered his other job to focus exclusively on implementing this one. Total absorption in the project is another important lesson.

For many people, terrorism was first brought to their attention after the events surrounding September 11th. As they were quickly made aware of the underlying threats that these groups can be.

This study focuses on the two predominantly Latino Gangs, Mara Salvatrucha (aka MS-13), and the 18th Street Gang operating on the streets of communities across America. This study is significant because it will provide a snapshot in time concerning how these violent gangs operate in this country in ways that can inform and alert both civilian society and government agencies concerning optimal responses to the problem created by these gangs. Through a quantitative and qualitative analysis of documentary evidence and governmental statistics about the Mara Salvatrucha and 18th Street Gang, this study developed several conclusive findings on the negative effects of these groups in the United States. The Mara Salvatrucha and 18th Street Gang are becoming transnational criminal organizations given the fact that they originated in Central America and Mexico and have since expanded their operations abroad. Despite efforts by national and international law enforcement to curtail these gangs' criminal behaviors, they maintain their ties with their gang associates in these countries. Moreover, gang members engage in criminal activities that were highly organized. They also moved through networks that continued to gain sophistication. Drug trafficking, gun running, violence, robbery, extortion are some of the heinous crimes committed by these groups. These gangs disturb peace and order in the community, destroy personal properties and endanger the lives of citizens. These two gangs may establish an organized criminal enterprise capable of coordinating illegal activities across national borders. Nonetheless, with complete disregard to the laws of this land including immigration laws, these groups are considered a threat to the security of the country, but this level is considered comparable to any highly organized street gang that supports its activities with criminal enterprises. In sum, , the dangers posed by Mara Salvatrucha and the 18th Street as well as other comparable criminal organizations should not be underestimated.
