...least two additional infection-related procedures since his initial season-ending knee surgery in September. It's now possible that his knee will have to undergo another operation, which could delay his return until 2010. Staph seems to be the likely culprit, but neither Brady nor the Patriots will confirm that. During training camp staph infected a bursa sac, which acts as a cushion between bones, in Manning's left knee. The infection required surgery and forced him to miss most of the preseason.

Palm Beach County GOP chair Sid Dinerstein is happy he still has a seat to the event, he said. Since 2006, the area has seen four city and county commissioners imprisoned for corruption charges; the Foley scandal; a still unresolved Aug. 26 judicial election in which voting ballots briefly disappeared; and now the Mahoney affair.
