Getman's possible ploy includes bringing junior sweeper Brian Enge up to midfield and to have junior midfielder Jeremy Amen, who scored five goals last year, play the forward position. Lenny Ilkanoff would move back to midfield...

Only Deliverance might be adequate preparation for one problem-solving ploy practiced at the Gannett-owned News-Press in Fort Myers, Fla. Employees find themselves out at sea in a 25-ft. boat, often with only one experienced sailor on board. Says Madelyn Jennings, a Gannett senior vice president: "Some need to lead. Some need to follow. But they all need...
