At least the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki helped prevent what could have been the obliteration of humans on an even larger scale. CHANDRA DEWI KUMIA Jakarta, Indonesia
...cupcakes at 50 paces. One duelist was Dewi Sukarno, 39, the sloe-eyed, Japanese-born widow of the Indonesian strongman and a relentless Paris partygoer for the past half a dozen years. Her antagonist: the legendary Regine, 50, who has parlayed her soignée Paris boīte into a chain of expensive nightclubs reaching to New York and eight other cities.

Making the social scene in Paris, where she is enjoying all kinds of exotic thrills-such as Rothschilds, raw chestnuts, Vicomtesse Jacqueline de Ribes, and steak tartare-pretty Dewi Sukarno, 30, a widow of the late President of Indonesia, keeps her rather notable shape with judo. "It's very funny," says Dewi. "After each lesson I feel really beaten-up for a couple of days, and then I'm ready to go again." One advantage is that it can be practiced at home, unlike another of her favorite sports-horseback riding. But judo is not only for physical...
