Secretary of State Hillary Clinton opens a gift from senior managers at the State Department upon returning to work on Monday. She returned to work after being hospitalized for the flu, a concussion, and blood clot.

State Department leaders gifted Clinton "a football helmet with a State Department seal, lots of good padding," spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said.
