She rushed to the scene of the tragedy, pushed through a tough anti-terror presidential decree and permitted the arrest of Abubakar Ba'asyir, the Muslim cleric suspected of being the spiritual leader of Jemaah Islamiah, which the U.S. has dubbed a terrorist organization. Indonesia was the slowest country in Southeast Asia to respond to terrorism post-Sept. 11?Xand Bali showed graphically the need to intensify its vigilance.

To make the machine even safer, it comes equipped with three computerized keys that set speed and performance limits. The slowest setting, now called training mode, used to be jokingly referred to around DEKA as CEO mode...
