They recently started VT in our ward, yeah, you read that right. They just started doing it. We moved here less than a year ago and so for the first 6 months i was here I didnt have a companion or route, or anything.
They just did the new routes and everything so I am finally a VT again. I like visitng teaching, its always been a huge blessing to me. The problem comes in here...I VT a lady who VT me. She's in the RS Pres. and did the routes, and she's strangely interested in my kids. Not in a gross way, just, kisses them all the time, is always trying to take them to go play in the foyer or whatever during church, it's sort of weird.
So, they want me to VT her, her to VT me, and I am in the YW's pres with her girls. THey have a lot going on, many many home issues, lots of problems. It just seems like I am too much in their business. KWIM? Like, I have to be involved in some ways with her daughters because being in YW, but I feel like this is too much!
Would i be an awful person if I asked to not VT her? Is it weird to be someone's VT when they are your VT? WWYD in this situation?

Lymphoma Survivor Stories
by Nicole Patterson
My hair didn't come out all at once or in big clumps like I had heard about from others enduring chemotherapy treatments. It fell out gradually, strand by strand.
Time to Fly Away
by Rob Wahrhaftig
My eight-year-old nephew Steve often asks me, "Did you get out of cancer yet?" I tell him that you don't exactly "get out" of cancer, that it's not like being in a jail. A jail is where you are put when you have done something wrong, and people with cancer have not done anything wrong. No, having cancer is more like being stuck in a barrel.

Anderson Silva:
Best Fighter on the planet.
Lil Nog vs Hendo would've been a much better fight on paper. Evans should easily out wrestle Hendo.....that is if he chooses to wrestle instead if box the entire time.
The fight was pretty pedestrian, neither woman ever really had their opponent in trouble. It was a typical positioning/points contest. Herring getting in Clarke's face was kind of asking for stupid shit to happen and surprise! stupid shit happened.
just trying to capture the attention of a male-dominated sport, I guess.
All manner of men came to work for the News: everything from wild young Turks who wanted to rip the world in half and start all over again -- to tired, beer-bellied old hacks who wanted nothing more than to live out their days in peace before a bunch of lunatics ripped the world in half.
Dr. Hunter S. Thompson
The Rum Diary
Yeah, Bye.
^^ You make that gif sound almost as intense as it looks.
I'm going for Hendo in this one, but I really just hope for an exciting fight. This has the potential to be an awesome fight but it could also end up being pretty lame. It really depends on how both fighters choose to engage. For some reason I have a feeling it will be another lackluster split decision loss for one of the two.
"He's got big balls. I like that." -Josh Koschek on Frank Trigg's balls.
I'd normally take Rashad hands down in this matchup, but I keep hearing this negative stuff about the Blackzillians camp that I'm tentative to pick him here, I'm afraid his camp and focus may not be where it needs to be and he just looked really off in the Lil Nog fight.
I think if Hendo looks to clinch Evans and make it into a dirty boxing cage war, he can take the fight, akin to the Couture/Tito fight. However, if he just lumbers out and headhunts, even Rashad with whatever drama is going on in his camp, will take him down and keep him down.
Really depends on what you value more, a camp filled with drama and distractions or age accompanied by a potentially one-note game plan.
I'd take the motivated fighter against the unmotivated, distracted one.

The Stirling jury will visit the six schemes in the autumn and chose the winner on the day of the presentation, October 16.Spencer de Grey CBE Foster + PartnersSenior Partner, Joint Head of Design Spencer de Grey Spencer de Grey shares design responsibility for all Foster + Partners' projects as joint Head of Design.

In 1997 he was made a CBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours List and in 2008 was elected a Royal Academician. Stephen KieranKieran TimberlakeDirector Stephen Kieran Stephen Kieran is a partner at Kieran Timberlake, an American architecture firm recognised for its beautifully crafted buildings that are holistically integrated to site, programme and people. Established in 1984, the firm engages the craft of architecture at all levels, from early adoption of building information modeling and environmental analysis tools, to close collaboration with fabricators and materials scientists. Notable projects include the Embassy of the United States in London, which employs strategies to significantly reduce energy consumption and sets an agenda to achieve carbon neutrality; Loblolly House, an off-site fabricated waterfront home; SmartWrap™, a mass-customizable building envelope exhibited at the Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum; and Cellophane House™, a fully recyclable, energy-gathering dwelling exhibited at The Museum of Modern Art in New York. Under his guidance the firm has received over 160 design citations, including the AIA Firm Award in 2008 and the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Award in 2010. Stephen and Partner James Timberlake were the inaugural recipients of the Benjamin Latrobe Fellowship for architectural design research from the AIA College of Fellows in 2001. Since 2002 they have co-authored five books on architecture, including the influential book refabricating ARCHITECTURE. Stephen lectures internationally to academic and industry audiences and to the broader public, with recent talks in London, Montreal, Puerto Rico, Rome, and Tel Aviv. He has served on several award juries, including the AIA College of Fellows Latrobe Prize jury. In addition to his architectural practice, Stephen teaches a graduate-level design and research studio at the University of Pennsylvania School of Design. He has held visiting professorships at the University of Washington, Yale University, the University of Michigan, and Princeton University. MJ Long OBELong & KentishDirector MJ Long OBE Director Long and Kentish, MJ Long and Rolfe Kentish formed their award-winning architectural practice in May 1994. The practice grew out of Colin St John Wilson & Partners, where MJ Long was a director and where Rolfe Kentish was an associate. Her experience and skill is derived from working on the new British Library building at St Pancras and on a wide variety of other projects, including the RIBA Award-winning National Maritime Museum Falmouth (2003), Pallant House Gallery, New Wing, Chichester and the RIBA National Award-winning Porthmeor artists' studios renovation, St Ives (2014). Based in Highbury, North London, Long and Kentish boasts a vast array of experience within a multitude of areas of architecture and design. Particular expertise in the programming, design and construction supervision of museums, galleries, libraries, university facilities, restaurants, new houses, artists' studios, conversion work to existing buildings, fittings and components. MJ Long was born in the USA in 1939, and received her MArch from Yale in 1964. She has been resident in England since 1965, and worked with Colin St John Wilson from 1965 to 1996 (as a partner from 1974). She also ran a separate practice (MJ Long Architect) from 1974 to 1996. MJ Long is registered as an architect in the UK and USA. MJ was a CABE Commissioner and chaired the CABE Design Review Panel. MJ continues to teach and examine regularly at Yale. Sir Timothy Sainsbury Sir Timothy Sainsbury The Rt. Hon Sir Timothy Sainsbury is an Hon. FRIBA and Hon. FRICS. From 1962-1974 he was Director of Development at J Sainsbury Plc and during that period he served on the Environmental Planning Committee on the GLC and was Deputy Chairman for the Central Area. He was MP for Hove from 1973-1997 and held several government posts including Minister of Trade and Ministry of Industry in the governments of Margaret Thatcher and John Major. He commissioned the late Sir Denys Lasdun to design a house for his family in the country and through his charity has been involved with a number of projects including the Sainsbury Wing of the National Gallery, the Sainsbury Building at Worcester College and the Forecourt Development at the Ashmolean Museum.Cindy WaltersWalters & CohenDirector Cindy Walters Cindy was born in Australia, studied in South Africa and moved to London in 1990 to work for Foster+Partners, setting up Walters & Cohen with Michál Cohen in 1994. Since then Walters & Cohen has grown from two founding partners to a dynamic architectural practice made up of 30 talented people from around the world. The practice's design approach is thorough, demanding and rational. This is evident in the material quality of buildings completed, which combine intellectual rigour with a sensual appreciation of space, light and materiality. Cindy has worked on a diverse range of education, leisure, cultural and commercial projects, including the award-winning Visitor Centre at Wakehurst Place, West Sussex, Bedales School in Hampshire, Colston's Girls' School in Bristol and the Shirley Sherwood Gallery of Botanical Art at Kew Gardens. She is currently in charge of projects for the Athenaeum Hotel on Piccadilly, Reigate Grammar School, a Buddhist Retreat Centre in Suffolk, and the King's School, Canterbury. Outside the practice, Cindy is and has served as an external examiner at several architectural schools across the UK, and is currently undertaking a PhD at the Bartlett School of Architecture. From 2007 to 2013 Cindy was involved with the RIBA Awards Group, and has also been a member of the Lubetkin Prize jury and judge for the President's Research Awards. She is one of Design Council Cabe's Built Environment Experts and regularly takes part in the Design Council's project reviews. In 2012 Cindy and Michál were awarded the inaugural AJ Woman Architect of the Year Award and in 2014 Cindy was included on the Guardian's '10 women in architecture to watch in 2014' list.

CC Sabathia made his final tune-up start before heading into the regular season yesterday in Bradenton, tossing four scoreless innings against the Pittsburgh Pirates, and it'll be pretty much the same thing this time around for Hiroki Kuroda, who will also be making his final start of the spring today against the Miami Marlins in Tampa.
Of the five pitchers currently locked in to start the season in the Yankee's rotation, Kuroda has been the most under-the-radar pitcher in camp.
While everyone is spending their time talking about Masahiro Tanaka and how he'll adjust to major league life, Michael Pineda and how he'll be able to come back after missing the last two seasons because of shoulders surgery, and CC Sabathia and the almost beaten to death question about his velocity, no one seems to be talking about Kuroda, who was putting up Cy Young numbers until the final six weeks of the season.
Kuroda has been a very solid and consistent pitcher for the Yankees over the past couple of seasons. He looked good in his first pair of spring starts before running into a little road block around the middle of spring, but it's not anything that a good pitcher like Kuroda can't straighten out.
Kuroda is only expected to throw a couple innings today, or probably even to the 45-50 pitch limit that Sabathia had yesterday. And once Kuroda leaves the game, Tanaka will be the first pitcher out of the bullpen. So, happy Tanaka Day!
Tonight's lineup against Miami:
- Brett Gardner LF
- Derek Jeter SS
- Carlos Beltran RF
- Mark Teixeira 1B
- Brian McCann C
- Alfonso Soriano DH
- Kelly Johnson 3B
- Brian Roberts 2B
- Ichiro Suzuki CF
Minus Jacoby Ellsbury, who went 2-for-5 in a minor league game this morning, the Yankees are using a lineup filled with all of the regulars tonight. The first few times that Girardi went with a lineup full of regulars, it looked a lot like what we're seeing tonight. Assuming Ellsbury will be in Houston for Opening Day, the only slight changes with be having Ellsbury lead off, and probably swapping Ichiro for Gardner.
** According to the reporters in Tampa, there are no noticeable lockers cleared out as we await the Yankees to announce the roster cuts that we are expecting to get today. Girardi and his staff were meeting this morning to discuss the final roster spots, such as the two infield bench spots, and who should be -- if they decide to use one -- the second lefty out of the bullpen.
No other notes right now, so check back often for updates.

After three years of powerful economic expansion before 2008, the Great Recession caused the revenues of many American companies to plunge to multiyear lows. While sales at most big companies have rebounded to prerecession levels by 2012, sales plummeted at a small number of companies.
To identify the companies with shrinking revenue, 24/7 Wall St. reviewed the S&P 500 companies that have had the largest declines in revenue during their past five full fiscal years. Companies that filed for bankruptcy were excluded from the analysis.
From 24/7 Wall St., these are America's great shrinking companies.
1. ConocoPhillips
Over the past five years, ConocoPhillips' COP, +0.66% revenue has shrunk by more than $116 billion, from just over $177 billion to just over $60 billion. Ironically, ConocoPhillips may have first begun to shrink with its 2006 acquisition of Burlington Resources for $35.6 billion, which it bought with the intention of becoming the nation's largest natural gas producer. This move backfired, however, as natural gas prices sank. In recent years, ConocoPhillips began to sell assets, spinning-off its refining and pipeline business in 2012 into a new company, Phillips 66. Along with the spinoff went much of ConocoPhillips' revenue—Phillips 66 generated over $166 million in revenue in 2012.
2. Marathon Oil Corp.
Similar to ConocoPhillips, Marathon Oil's MRO, -0.56% contraction was the result of the spinoff of its refining operations, forming Marathon Petroleum in mid 2011. This cost the oil giant a massive chunk of its revenues. The company's revenue was less than $16 billion in 2012, down from nearly $72 billion four years prior. In 2012, Marathon Petroleum's revenue was nearly $77 billion, and it also spun off some of its operations into a master limited partnership. Such MLPs are becoming increasingly more popular in the energy industry and among investors because they offer favorable tax benefits.
3. Ford Motor Co.
Ford F, -0.07% was the only one of the Big Three auto makers which made it through the massive restructuring of the American car industry without a federal bailout. However, the company was undeniably damaged by the recession. In the U.S., Ford sold light cars and trucks at an annualized rate of more than 16 million for much of 2006 and 2007. But by early 2009, sales had plunged to a rate of barely more than 9 million vehicles per year. Although sales have recovered somewhat in the U.S., the company's business has continued to struggle in Europe, where new vehicle sales have dropped by nearly 10% through the first half of the year. At left, Ford Motor auto assembly workers install an engine at the Dearborn Truck Plant in Michigan Sept. 16.
4. Motorola Solutions Inc.
As recently as 2007, Motorola MSI, +0.35% was still the world's second-largest mobile phone company by sales, with more than 164 million phones sold that year and a 14.3% share of the market. But as Apple and Android based devices continued to become more and more popular, Motorola's market share was wiped away, falling to less than 2% in 2012. In early 2011, Motorola announced the long-anticipated split of the company's operations. It separated the business solutions functions from the consumer-facing mobile phones segment into two separate companies, Motorola Solutions and Motorola Mobility. While Motorola Mobility survived only briefly as a stand-alone company before being acquired by Google GOOG, -0.19% , Motorola Solutions has managed to grow both its sales and become profitable since the split.
5. General Electric Co.
General Electric GE, -0.26% finally closed the deal to sell a 51% controlling stake in NBCUniversal to Comcast in early 2011, more than a year after a deal had first been announced. In the previous fiscal year, NBCUniversal had accounted for nearly 17 billion of the conglomerate's total revenue. The deal gave Comcast majority ownership of NBC, as well as ownership of Universal Studios. Still, part of NBCUniversal remained under GE ownership until earlier this year, when the company sold the remaining 49% of its stake to Comcast.
6. Citigroup Inc.
Citigroup's C, +0.66% revenues dove during the recession, when the bank recorded a loss of nearly $28 billion in 2008 and received $45 billion in aid. Although all of the bailout money has since been repaid, Citi has had to continue searching for assets and operations to shed in order to ensure its long-term future. Life insurance company Primerica and Citi's stake in Morgan Stanley Smith Barney—a wealth management joint venture with Morgan Stanley—were among the dozens of businesses Citigroup has managed to shed in recent years. When Citigroup named Michael Corbat CEO in October 2012, the company touted his work in overseeing Citi's divestiture of more than $500 billion in assets.
7. American International Group Inc.
AIG's AIG, +0.37% insurance obligations on a massive quantity of financial instruments by the end of fiscal year 2008 led to a mammoth $99 billion loss. Finding it was unable to meet its financial obligations, the insurance giant received a massive $182 billion bailout from the Dept. of the Treasury and the Federal Reserve to keep it from collapsing. Although both government entities eventually exited their investments, AIG was forced to sell tens of billions of dollars in assets to repay the aid money. In the process, it lost numerous business units and foreign operations. Currently, AIG has returned to profitability and even intends to return money to shareholders for the first time in years.
8. The Goldman Sachs Group Inc.
Goldman Sachs' GS, +0.55% net revenues and earnings have fluctuated in the past five years. But during the heart of the financial crisis, from 2007 to 2008, the firm's earnings fell by nearly 80%. Goldman was one of several major banks that received early aid from the Treasury in order to ensure its solvency. Since the financial crisis, the investment bank has had to change several of its major business practices. In 2010, the firm wound down its proprietary trading desk. The company highlighted several factors keeping revenue low in 2012, including concerns about the global economy, and the movement by investors to assets that generated lower commissions. At left, Goldman Sachs specialist trader Michael Shearin works at his post on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, Sept. 18.
9. Tyco International Ltd.
Tyco's TYC, +0.39% revenue has fallen by more nearly $10 billion over the past four years, from $19.7 billion to $10.4 billion in 2012. The infamous Dennis Kozlowsky, left, previously served as the acquisition-hungry, and crooked, CEO of the former conglomerate. The company, which now provides security and fire safety services and products, has spent years spinning off or selling subsidiaries. Last year, Tyco's flow control business merged with Pentair Inc. to form Pentair Ltd., while the company also spun off home security business ADT Corp. as its own stand-alone company. Past subsidiaries or operations that are also now their own stand-alone public companies include health-care company Covidien and lender CIT Group.
10. D.R. Horton Inc.
D.R. Horton DHI, -0.11% is the largest home builder in America. It has faced extreme headwinds in the past several years. As home prices collapsed throughout much of the nation during the housing crisis, the company's revenue fell from $11.3 billion to $3.7 billion in just two years. Also, from fiscal 2007 through fiscal 2009, the company had a total net loss that exceeded $4 billion. While home prices have been on the rise—up 7.3% in May from the year before—interest rates have also began increasing. The higher mortgage cost could potentially push away some buyers. According to The Wall Street Journal, new home orders with D.R. Horton rose 12% in the second quarter of 2013, but fell short of expectations.
11. J.C. Penney Co.
J.C. Penney's JCP, -0.47% sales have declined at an average of 8.2% for the past five years. The company's revenue of just under $13 billion in fiscal 2012 is far lower than its fiscal 2007 revenue figure of close to $20 billion. The retailer's same-store sales have plummeted in recent years. They fell by 25.2% last year alone, and there's no end in sight to the company's downward trajectory. In April, the company fired its CEO, Ron Johnson, after just over a year of service, and brought back former CEO Mike Ullman, who had himself lost the position after overseeing a decline in performance. Hedge Fund Manager Bill Ackman quit the board because of his dissatisfaction with Ullman. As the company searches for a new CEO, there is also speculation it might go private. At left, a woman checks her phone outside the entrance of a J.C. Penney store in New York.

In SQL Server 2000, Cross database ownership chaining (CDOC) was a mechanism used to allow access (DML access) to resources on different DBs without explicitly granting access to the resources (such as tables) directly.
Unfortunately CDOC is a feature that Microsoft does not recommend as it has some serious security risks inherent to the feature (for details on this topic, you can consult BOL, http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/adminsql/ad_security_4iyb.asp).
Fortunately in SQL Server 2005 we count with 2 alternative mechanisms that will enable cross-database resource usage without explicitly granting access to either the database or to the resources directly to each principal. These mechanisms are EXECUTE AS feature and using digital signatures.
Some of the best references on how to use these mechanisms can be found in BOL (Extending Database Impersonation by Using Execute As) and in
Laurentiu Cristofor's blog (http://blogs.msdn.com/lcris/).
On this demo, I want to extend these materials with a demo that relies only on digital signatures as secondary identity (i.e. no authenticator involved).
While this approach has some advantages, including:
· No need to create/re-use a login for the application
· Works as a CDOC replacement
o In addition, works with dynamic SQL
· Denied permissions on the caller will be honored
· Easier to script for ISV applications (i.e. the signature can be precalculated)
· Can be easily adapted for either DB or server scoped permissions
As any other security feature, this approach also has some limitations you should consider before deploying:
· It doesn't work if the calling context is a DB-scoped context (i.e. approles, EXECUTE AS USER).
· Doesn't work if the operation requires creating an object or use the calling's primary identity.
o Do not rely on implicit user creation!
· Be extra careful when using dynamic SQL as SQL injection attacks can abuse the escalated privileges.
· Need to write the certificate to disk (at least temporarily) in order to create the certificate in 2 or more databases.
· If you require calling nested modules, each one of the nested modules should be signed or counter signed as well.

We're getting ready to release a ton of new TFS Power Toy news in the next few days and as I've been preparing for it, I've found myself reflecting on what Power Toys are about. I don't pretend to be pontificating any official Microsoft policy here but I wanted to share a few thoughts.
Some Background (skip if you don't care)
We (the TFS team) came up with the idea of doing "Power Toys" in the last 6 months of shipping TFS. Historically, the end of the product cycle in DevDiv is a grind. It's months of testing, gathering customer feedback, triaging and fixing bugs. By the time we get past out final Beta, the product has all of the features that it's going to and we're just refining the quality, tuning the performance, etc. We may do a DCR or two if there is a huge amount of customer demand - the Work Item Tracking "friendly name" and improved Sharepoint setup experience are (I think) the only two we did at the end.
During this time, it's easy to see all of the things we wish we could do. Holes in the product we wish we could fill, compelling new features we could deliver. With TFS being a V1 product, this desire is especially strong. But, it's the wrong time. It's time to ship what we've already built.
We found ourselves asking - If not now when? I posted a blog entry (way back then :)) asking what you want. Did you want a big release with lots of new value? A small release to fine tune what we have? Etc. Most of the feedback I got tended to be on the shorter more tactical side. On the other hand, there are some major advances we want to make too. And there's the issue of coordinating our schedule with the rest of DevDiv. It makes for a very complicated problem to solve.
As we were mulling over the great stuff we thought we could do and trying to figure out when we could do it, we asked the unthinkable - what if we just build it and put it on the web and let people download it? We're in a bit of a different situation than most products out there. We (TFS) are sold primarily as a subscription - not as a one time purchase with separate one time upgrade decisions. So, we thought, why not? We could build features and make them available immediately. You can't use them if you don't already have a TFS license and since you're on subscription, we're not taking away from our "upgrade" revenue.
That covers the revenue side of it but that's only a small part. There are a lot of other issues, including: release process (testing, Beta testing, etc), marketing, support, localization, documentation, setup & servicing, etc. If we are going to release value off-cycle and frequently, we have to find a way to substantially reduce the "cost" of doing a release. This drives a lot of our policies around Power Toys.
What is a TFS Power Toy?
We use the term "Power Toy" loosely. It is a "brand" we use for a series of tools/add-ons that are released off-cycle from the "normal" DevDiv release process. The primary characteristics include:
TFS Power Toys are not "Toys". Despite the self-deprecating name, we take Power Toys very seriously. We use them internally in our production environment and we expect that customers will too. As a result we work hard to ensure that any feature is valuable, its user experience is good and quality is high.
Over the past several months, I've started to hear customers express concern about deploying TFS Power Toys into their production environments. I'd like to try to address these concerns and help people feel better about it. This blog post is one step towards that goal. Another step I'm considering is changing the name. I fear the name "Power Toys" is misleading. As I said, these are not toys. They are useful and solid tools. I'm VERY interested in hearing opinions on the idea of renaming them.
The Role of Servicing
Servicing is the process (Hot Fixes - aka QFEs and GDRs, Service Packs, etc) by which we update officially shipped bits. As I said above, Power Toys generally do not change shipped bits. However, there is some interplay here. As you've seen from some of my posts on SP1, we are now starting to add small features in our service packs. My plan is to add carefully chosen features to service packs that can later be leveraged by Power Toys to deliver value. This allows us to constrain the volume of work that has to fit in the tightly managed servicing schedule but still deliver substantial value as early and often as possible.
Time will tell what happens to the TFS Power Toys. For now it's a bit of an experiement. If you, our customers, find them valuable and they help you get your job done, we'll continue to do them. Over time, I expect many (but probably not all) Power Toy features to get integrated into a future "full release" of the product. I hope the feedback we get from releasing them early allows us to produce an even better feature by the time we incorporate it into an official release.
I appologize for the length but I had a lot to say (and a lot more that I could have, but didn't). Please let me know what you think. Does this make sense? Are Power Toys useful to you? Is there something we should do differently?

Jason Roy from Building 429 talks with Scott Herrold about how dads need to be warriors, servants & shepherds. It's a deep discussion on what it means to truly be a spiritual leader.
Dave from Sidewalk Prophets talks about perspective behind music reflected toward God and how songs can get ahead of culture rather than follow culture.
Here's a guest blog from Chef Phillip Dell:
Galatians 5:22 says "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control."
We all need to let God have control of our lives and let His Spirit manifest these fruit in us. Each of the fruit has a purpose and a blessing for us and for those around us, but I want to take a minute and focus on a few that are especially helpful as you seek to transform your life.
This week I've been thinking a lot about agendas. Maybe it was Columbus Day, maybe it was the Iran nuclear talks in the news or all the politicians on TV arguing about our national debt. I just see agendas everywhere shifting our culture in ways that make me uncomfortable. I even see Christians tearing down other churches in our city. I point it out because passions can easily turn into agendas. Sometimes we don't even realize it, but we are hurting people as we push our agendas.
God's always on time, but his watch is different. -Scott

Toews admits he played with concussion symptoms
Nov 15, 2012, 1:16 PM EDT
Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews maintains he was symptom-free and "felt 100 percent" when he returned to Chicago's line-up for the playoffs after sitting out two months with a concussion.
Except now he admits he wasn't 100 percent.
"Even if you don't feel something and you think you're symptom-free, there's probably still something there that's kind of hindering you and affecting the way your brain works," Toews told the Chicago Tribune on Wednesday. "It was just a lot of eye-movement things. My eyes didn't track very well. They didn't look from one target to the next very well. My balance with my eyes closed and my head turned a certain way was terrible. (There were) little things that I would think were normal because I didn't feel something in my head."
Toews spent last week in Atlanta at a chiropractic neurology facility where he says his problems were solved once and for all; however, the fact he played with symptoms (even if he didn't know they were symptoms) won't help the reputation of a Blackhawks organization that's already faced questions about its concussion protocol.
In February, it was reported that Toews may have hidden his symptoms from the Blackhawks soon after he sustained the injury. And even in today's concussion-sensitive era, players are going to do that.
But when Toews says, "My balance with my eyes closed and my head turned a certain way was terrible," we can't help but wonder if Chicago's medical staff should have been able to identify that.
It always did seem a little curious that Toews was cleared to play just in time for the first game of the postseason.

You're thinking Patrick Kane, not Toews.

My bad, you are correct.

Lol Detroit fan. It's unfortunate that he played with those type of symptoms but obviously you don't have the proper pathology education to make an educated opinion on concussions and on the subjective information vs the objective information. And don't forget that an athlete of a high level will play when injured and lie about an injury to get back on the field sooner. Not everything can be seen from an x-ray or MRI or simple hoprs evaluation tests.
