It also spared a headache fc?s OGDEN (AP) full-colo- r, Adrienne Sowards, who com- piles the state's crime data each year for a report. Sowards has had to handle "a lot of problems and delays due to the publisher." "But posting it on our Web site, we could go around the publisher and do it quicker," she said. But the move sparked an unexpected complaint- from some members of Utah's law enforcement community, highlighting the digital divide in America. Some law officers didn't know how to retrieve the report from the Internet, didn't have an Internet connection or computer, or didn't know how to use a computer. "We had a couple of chiefs and sheriffs complain because they simply liked having a paper copy of it in hand," Sowards said. "And a few wanted it on their bookshelf because they had all of the previous editions. They just thought it looked.good." '.' But experts say electronic publishing is a trendy that will likely continue in everything from government reports to scientific journals. Printed versions of these publications will be phased out due to costs and storage limits. For those without a computer or computer literacy, acquir- ing information Information in the Age will become that much harder, leaving them in danger of being left behind in the New Economy, said Richard Nelson, CEO of the; Utah Information Technologies Association. A recently released report by the U.S. Department of Commerce reveals that less than half of Americans have a home computer, with blacks and Hispanics lagging behind whites and "If you're going to be part of , it's the New Economy, essential you absolutely become computer literate," Nelson said.

Mike Leavitt dusted off his crown last December. Now, with the Republican state convention set for this GOP Saturday, the two-tergovernor is sharpening his con- Lawson counts 30 percent of the. delegates in his camp to Leavitt's 49 percent and 21 percent undecided. Lawson predicts the governor won't get the 60 percent delegate vote needed to avert a primary. Lawson said he would use the governor's office to help Utah counties in their federal " land disputes, promote a schools to approach and oppose gun controls. If elected,. he also vows to dismantle the state Division of Child and Family Services, which he says investigated him foster child after a accused him of sexual abuse. Lawson threatened a $40 million defamation of character lawsuit against the "Gestapo" which agency, apparently dropped its investigation. Also running is marketing-companowner Glen Davis, who has mounted a "Straight Talk" campaign for delegate votes. Davis, 44, opposes abortion except when a toother's life is in danger, wants to bar candidates and elected officials from contriseeking special-interes- t butions and rejects "subversive tactics" by government to con- - servative credentials against four challengers from his own party. Even by one opponent's count, Leavitt has a firm lead on the Republican nomination for the November election. He also has campaign funds topping $1.5 million. The GOP nominee will face former U.S. Rep. Bill Orton e from the Democrats, "free-market- one-tim- candidate congressional Jeremy Friedbaum from the Independent-AmericaParty and Dub Richards, who is running on a multiparty campaign. From , within the GOP, Leavitt can expect state party convention sparring with Steve Stromness of Provo, Glen P. Davis of Holladay and Tim n y Lawson of Orem all jabbing at Leavitt's record as a conservative. Lawson, 35, a general con- tractor, says Republicans are "just tickled to "card-carrying- " death" he's challenging Leavitt. SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -When an murder suspect put a handgun to his daughter's head, demanding his car keys, Peter Berg tossed the keys on the ground, distracting the gunman and saving his daughter's from his own party. life. But the enraged assailant fired a shot into Berg's back and ordered the man to pick up the keys. After Berg told the gunman to get the keys himself, he was shot two more times while his daughter. Whitney, ran out of harm's way. For the bravery that cost the trol private property. Stromness, a chemical engineer, also emphasizes conservative ideals. In campaign literature, he knocks Leavitt for signing the hundreds of bills lawmakers pass each year and for supporting a ban on legally concealed weapons in churches and schools. He also attacks "corrupt" lobbying "practices. Leavitt, 49, has spent lots of time visiting delegates lately, conceding he has to "to make a case to the delegates that I should continue to carry the party's banner." ., "I'm taking nothing for granted," he said. chalHe faced an intra-partlenge last winter, when conservative lawmakers lined up support for House Speaker Marty Stephens. Although Stephens' supporters insisted he could oust Leavitt before a primary, the lawmakers retreated after hashing out their differences with the governor in private. v: y h "Human rights and truth have no political colors." 0 -- - Raul Rettig . ined. Rettig made a point in having representatives from all political sectors in the commission, and dismissed critics who said his work would be politically biased. "Human rights and truth have no political colors," he said at the time in an interview with The Associated Press. The commission's final report established that at least 3,197 people were killed for political reasons or disappeared during the Pinochet regime. Among the many anecdotes in Rettig? long career is a pistol duel in the 1950s with a young Marxist congressman, Salvador Allende, who later became the president toppled by Pinochet in ' his bloody 1973 coup. in The reasons for the duel which both' men actually shot 1 their pistols without hitting each other were never known. After the duel, however, they developed a close friendship and as president, Allende named Rettig ambassador to Brazil. Details for the funeral will be. announced Mondav.
