State Government and the Role of the Citizen
Video Summary: How does government function at the state level? How are state laws made? In this lesson, Diane Kerr's students examine the branches of state government, the powers of each branch, and how a bill becomes a law.
Ms. Kerr begins by identifying the three branches of government and describing the role of each branch. Working in small groups, students use vocabulary cards and a picture of a tree to create posters that illustrate the relationship between the legislative, judicial, and executive "branches." Then students examine the process by which a bill becomes a law and make flip books that illustrate each step. Next, Ms. Kerr identifies their state representative -- the elected official who introduces bills on their behalf -- then asks students to consider what legislation they would introduce if they were representatives. As the lesson concludes, students write letters to their state representative as concerned citizens, asking her to consider their proposals.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. - Three Broncos netted double-figure points while Sara Majors and Jen Gottschalk posted double-doubles to give Santa Clara a 78-58 victory over San Jose State in Rivalry Series action Friday night at the Leavey Center. Chandice Cronk was the third player to post double-figures, leading the game with 21 points and six assists. With the triumph, SCU improved its win steak to four games and now owns an 8-3 overall record, while the Spartans dropped to 1-11 on the season.
"In the first half, we came out and executed really well," said head coach Michelle Bento-Jackson. "At times in the second half the environment as a whole was flat and we just kept telling the team to keep their intensity and execute. The trouble in the second half was that we put them on the free throw line way too much. Yet, our attitude is to improve each and every game and we did a good job tonight."
Majors pulled down a game-high and career-best 14 rebounds and registered 13 points to post her first career double-double, while Gottschalk netted 17 points and tallied 13 rebounds for her second double-double of the season. She also recorded a game-high three steals.
Both teams fought hard in the first half to gain control of the scoreboard. Santa Clara gained a three point lead on a jumper from Gottschalk, 9-6, but the San Jose State quickly tied the score, 9-9, on three point goal from Natalie White. Elizabeth Doran put the Broncos back up by two but once again White posted a traditional three point play to give the Spartans a one-point edge. With 14:16 remaining, a layup for Majors gave the Broncos the jolt they needed to take control of the game.
SCU then produced a 9-0 run that featured back-to-back treys from Cronk and Majors to gain a 20-12 lead. With 5:39 left in the first half, the Broncos opened a 14-point gap on a free throw from Maggie Goldenberger, 34-20. Santa Clara continued to push ahead on a 13-7 run to end the first half with a 20-point lead, 47-27.
Coming back from halftime, the Broncos picked up right where they left off and created a 25-point advantage twice, 52-27 and 57-32. However, the Spartans found new energy and began to chip away at the lead. They rallied to bring the score within 13 points twice in the late second half. Beginning the run for San Jose State was Brittany Powell, who scored all her 10 points in the second half. SJSU compiled a 15-3 run fueled by jumpers and free throws to make the score, 62-49, with 8:11 remaining.
The Spartans came within 13-points for the second and final time on a three-point goal from Emily Nichols, 71-58, with 3:40 left in regulation. However, that was the closest San Jose State would get, as the Broncos went on a 7-0 run and closed out the game with a layup from Kimee Goeggel, 78-58.
For the Spartans, Myosha Barnes registered 16 points, while White added 14 points and Powell had 10 points.
The Broncos return to action on Saturday, Dec. 29 against the Lumberjacks of Northern Arizona. Tip off is scheduled for 2 p.m. at the Leavey Center.

My understanding is that terminals often use ANSI control-codes to represent non-alphanumeric character sequences. For example, when editing
.inputrc for Bash in Linux, it's easy to find code sequences that look as follows:
"\e[A": history-search-backward
"\e[B": history-search-forward
"\e[C": forward-char
"\e[D": backward-char
"\e[1~": beginning-of-line
"\e[4~": end-of-line
"\e[3~": delete-char
"\e[2~": quoted-insert
"\e[5C": forward-word
"\e[5D": backward-word
The commands above define key bindings for the Bash commands
history-search-backward, etc..
Now, in bash, I can use
read to see how characters typed in my keyboard are mapped to ANSI control codes. E.g. For example, if I run
read, and then enter
Ctrl-P, I get:
^P. Similarly, if I enter
Alt-W, I get:
My question is: Is there a program, tool or website that does the opposite? I.e. a tool that outputs or shows the sequence of keyboard keys that I need to type on my keyboard to obtain a given ANSI control-code sequence. For example, entering
^[W should output:

Supposing you're asked by a beginning writer which books he should read to improve his skills in writing fantasy, you might say Tolkien's, and similarly, you might say Asimov's for scifi, etc.
I'd like to write an historical fiction. Which authors/titles would you recommend as "study material"? Not solely popular stuff, but also material from which I can actually learn the craft.

WoW.com did a little post comparing the Alliance to the Horde Shaman tier 9 pieces, I'm sure you've seen it by now, if not it's worth the read.
The tier 9 stats are good so far, but I really think they dropped the ball on looks. Lets take a quick peak at them
Just look at them, it's nothing to write home about. The alliance one though just makes me very sad. If you go back to my old post Why Play a Shaman? I posted a picture of a bunch of the tier sets up to Tier 7, add in Tier 8 and we've had a hell of a good run with some nice looking gear. (with in my opinion one exception, but more on that in a second). I was excited for the new tier set and was interested to see how they would do the faction specific gear. Let me share my opinion with you.
Alliance Set
I'll be honest. I don't like it. I'm kind of ok with the helm, but the rest is just…. blah! Looking at the set it reminds me of another odd set we had back in the day, the Stormcaller's Garb (also known as Tier 2.5).
Here's a picture of it:
In a time where Tier 2 and Tier 3 sets were around, this set just seemed out of place. Thats how I feel with Nobundo's set for alliance. The set lacks anything distinctly "Shaman", honestly to me it feels more like a Druid set look-wise.
Where is the power of the elements? Tier 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8 all have very obvious signs of elemental power coursing through it. Tier 4 was a little subtle with its touches of elemental power but it was still there (the water orb effect of the shoulders). So you have Stormcaller's Garb and Nobundo's gear which both lack anything that is distinctly "Shaman". Give me lightning or caged fire! Something! Anything that says "The spirits of the elements flow through me"! The color scheme as well is something that is lacking. Teal, orange and Purples? blech! Give me a color scheme that makes sense! Also, my faction symbol is a lion's head roaring, why not make it more prevalent then two small icons on the shoulders?
Horde Set
Horde fared much better then alliance here. Very clear Elemental influence, Color scheme is solid with Blues and Reds worked into the metal coloring. Faction symbol dead center on chest (just like the old Tier 2 set!). The set might be very similar to the Cataclysm Set (Tier 5) but I'll forgive them that because it looks pretty cool still. My only gripe is it doesn't seem horde enough. Now I'm sure I'll get flamed for saying this, but to me the height of Shaman gear was Tier 2. That set was amazing, particularly going to talk about the shoulders. Carved Wolf faces with lightning crackling over them? Not only did that scream shaman it screamed Horde (at least to me) I would have liked to have seen some animalistic reference in there. All in all though, much better then the alliance set.
I think this was an ok effort, but I find myself lacking any motivation to wear the pieces. Sure I'll get them and use them during raids, but I think I might have to resurrect a "vanity" set for general use when not raiding.
How about you? What do you think of the sets? What do you like or don't like about them? What would you like to see?
Until next time,

A commercial landlord has expanded his influence along Westchester's "Platinum Mile" with a $14.75 million purchase.
Robert Weisz, founder and CEO of RPW Group of Rye Brook, said his company bought two Class A office buildings at 925-1025 Westchester Ave. on the border of West Harrison and White Plains.
The purchase of the 192,711-square-foot property was announced by CBRE, a commercial real estate company that brokered the deal along with Ten-X.
The complex, formerly owned by Normandy Real Estate Partners, sits on 11.7 acres near the I-287/Hutchinson River Parkway interchange. The property is currently 65 percent leased, according to CBRE
Weisz, a major office developer and landlord with properties in Westchester and Fairfield counties, said he buys buildings that need attention,.
RPW Group also owns 800 Westchester Ave. in Rye Brook and 1133 Westchester Ave. in White Plains.
The Platinum Mile corridor along I-287 has undergone major redevelopment in recent years as many former corporate headquarters complexes have been repurposed.
At 103-105 Corporate Park Drive in Harrison, Toll Brothers demolished two outdated office buildings and is constructing a 421-unit rental apartment complex on the site.
On a 20-acre site in the same office park, Wegmans Food Market is replacing three old office buildings with a 125,000-square-foot supermarket in Harrison as reported here by Daily Voice.
In 2015, the Platinum Mile welcomed its first new office building in more than 25 years on at 3030 Westchester Ave., also in Harrison, as reported here by Daily Voice.
The grand opening of an 85,000-square-foot facility by WESTMED Medical Group included a major facelift to three adjoining offices built in the late 1960s. They once headquartered the Melville Group -- a large retail holding corporation that changed its name to CVS Corp. in 1996 during a massive reorganization.

It's the end of an era — the last of the Lotus "comeback cars." Lotus will reveal the Exige Matte Black Final Edition – an exclusive bit for North America — at the Pebble Beach car-o-thon next week.
The sendoff Exige — of which the company's only building 25 units — gets a power upgrade to 257 hp, matte-finish black paint, black Alacantara sport seats and other equipment. Alas, poor Exige, we knew him well.
But that's not all for the company's Pebble Beach doomed car mischief. Also on display will be the Lotus Evora GTE Road Car Concept. That's a show car based on the company's GTE racecar, which will compete in the 2012 Le Mans 24 Hours. The Road Car Concept produces "over 420 hp" from its race-developed engine, connected to an AMT sequential racing gearbox. Pirelli P-Zero Corsa tires wrap lightweight forged alloys with center locking hubs. Are we looking at a one-off or a new Lotus Challenge Series customer racecar?

Malin + Goetz Peppermint Shampoo
Starting at: $22.00
Men's Hair Shampoo
Insight & Advice on Men's Hair Shampoo
Hair or not, a daily shampoo should be part of every man's shower routine in order to hydrate and nourish a healthy scalp. Don't be fooled into thinking the more a shampoo lathers, the better it is. Most low-end men's shampoos use low-grade surfactants that foam a lot but dry out hair. A quality men's shampoo won't strip natural oils from the hair and scalp, keeping your dome hydrated and itch-free. The key to a better-looking dome is to use a hair cleanser targeted toward your particular hair type: normal, oily, dry, thinning or dandruff. Our top choice for normal type hair is our Grooming Lounge Best Shampoo—a gentle, everyday men's hair shampoo with Biotin to improve the health and strength of hair follicles.
WOW-Worthy Customer Experience

A powerful summer storm is threatening to bring flooding to parts of the UK this weekend.
The Met Office has issued severe weather alerts for rain covering most of England and Wales on Saturday.
Torrential downpours, lightning, hail and strong gusts could sweep in a day after temperatures are forecast to reach the 30C mark, with Friday tipped to be the hottest day of the year so far.
Yellow "be aware" alerts for rain have been put in place for north-west England, north-east England, Yorkshire and Humber, West Midlands, East Midlands, East of England, south-west England, London and the South East and parts of Wales.
The Met Office said: "Areas of heavy, thundery showers may develop over England and Wales from early on Saturday before moving northwards during the day.
"The development of these is uncertain but where they do form some torrential downpours are possible with frequent lightning, hail and locally strong gusts.
"Significant flooding is possible where these do occur from surface water as well as small, fast responding watercourses.
"The frequent lightning, hail and strong gusts could also be an additional hazard. The public should be aware of the risk of disruption from any of these elements."
The stormy conditions will dampen the mood during what is likely to be the warmest spell of the year so far.
Temperatures will start to rise from Thursday, peaking on Friday when the 30C barrier could be reached for the first time this year, with the most likely location somewhere to the north-west of London.
Forecasts suggest Britain will be slightly warmer than European holiday destinations such as Barcelona, Ibiza and Nice.
The hottest day so far this year was July 4, when 28.7C (83.7F) was detected in Norfolk and Essex.
Met Office forecaster Helen Roberts said most places in England and Wales will feel hot and humid, with temperatures generally around or higher than the 25C (77F) mark.
"Most people won't enjoy these conditions," said Ms Roberts. "It can be difficult sleeping during the hot humid nights.
"Although it probably is shorts and T-shirt weather, you will need a brolly at the same time."

Ariana Grande Frets Over Date Night Outfits in Cosmo Clip [VIDEO]
Ariana Grande talked about her personal style, fretted over date night outfits and was generally adorbs in a maaaj way in this behind-the-scenes footage from her Cosmo cover.
She described her personal style as "feminine, pretty casual and girly and classic and chill, I wear jeans and like peplum tops." Yep, sounds about right.
The singer also joked that she is embarrassed by pictures of herself from like six months ago, based on her clothing choices. We say, "No way, Ari! You always look super cute."
Grande also stressed that she doesn't have a fave date night outfit and was freaking out about it at the moment, since she needed it for a date planned for the next night. That date was presumably with her BF, the super cute Nathan Sykes of the Wanted.
The behind-the-scenes and cover interviews took place when she and Sykes were hot and heavy, since she revealed the "he's a keeper" details of their first date in her feature story.
Howevs, for the past month, Nariana's status has been frustratingly TBD. Neither she nor Sykes have commented, confirmed or denied if they are still together. While we respect their privacy, they've remained a little too mum for our taste and for Nariana shippers.
She has, however, spoken out about not dating, much less knowing, actor Adrian Grenier.

R.A. Dickey's Cy Young was a win for all knuckleballers, like ... Bill Cosby
R.A. Dickey made history when he became the first knuckleballer to win pitching's highest honor this year, affording a bit of validation to all practitioners of the niche pitch. That includes everyone from Hoyt Wilhelm to Eri Yoshida to Bill Cosby.
Yep, that Bill Cosby. The actor, comedian, educator and American icon tweeted as much on Wednesday:
To Mr. @radickey43 - As a former knuckleballer, thank you for making our pitch respectable and acceptable.— Bill Cosby (@BillCosby) November 15, 2012
While Cosby said in an interview last year that he "wasn't any good" at baseball in his youth, he did bust out the knuckler while throwing the first pitch at a Red Sox game in September, as you can see from the photo above. Maybe Dickey's success emboldened him -- and here's hoping the Cy Young inspires the next generation of knuckleballers, too.

By Brandon Speck/NEMS Daily Journal
JACKSON – Twelve teams are playing for MHSAA state football championships this weekend at Veterans Memorial Stadium in Jackson. Some of those teams will have a totally different road to travel to get back here next year.
The MHSAA classification re-alignment will be announced later this week, moving some teams to different classes and different divisions.
A 15-member executive board makes the final decision based on ninth through 12th grade enrollment.
MHSAA executive director Don Hinton hopes the new alignment will be announced Friday.
"There is some change," Hinton said. "Not anything extraordinary, but there will be some change."
The state's two largest classes, 5A and 6A, will have 32 teams each. The MHSAA would like to have 48-50 teams in 4A, 3A, 2A and 1A. Schools have five days to appeal.
One team sure to move from Class 5A to 6A is Starkville. The Yellow Jackets play Pascagoula on Saturday for the 5A championship.
"That's kind of on the back burner right now," Starkville coach Jamie Mitchell said. "I don't know whether we'll be in the North or South. We were in (6A) two years ago. It's not a big deal. I think we'll be competitive in either. "
For the sixth straight year, all six MHSAA state championship games will be broadcast on Mississippi Public Broadcasting. Check your local listings.
Noxubee County senior Darrell Robinson has a chance to add to his new state record when the Tigers take on Greene County Saturday at 3 p.m. in the 4A game. Robinson broke former Weir star Dicenzo Miller's state record of 47 touchdowns last week against Louisville, scoring six touchdowns to give him 49 for the season.
Class 3A Charleston is the only defending champion making a return trip to Jackson. The Tigers play Hazlehurst on Saturday at 11 a.m. Charleston is making its third trip to the state title game, all three games against Hazlehurst. They spilt the first two.
Championship schools can win more than a state championship. Game sponsor BlueCross BlueShield of Mississippi is offering $1,000 to the physical education department of the school with the most votes in a texting contest. Go to misshsaa.tv/gridironclassic for details.
Voting began Monday.
Tickets can be purchased from the schools for $12. Individual tickets will be $13 at the gate.

OILING STREETS Last year road oil cost 6c per gal¬ lon delivered on cars, Flora, 111., and with the oil tax money we were able to purchase three cara, or about 24,- OOO gallons of oil. At this time, this year, oil will cost about 16c per gallon delivered, and our appropl-latlons available for oil- log purposes will allow the purchase pt only about one and two-thirds cars or 11,700 gallons. There wilt be «l>out 12,000 available for oiling tbis year, pwtng to the fact that a little <iil on the streets ts wotse than none, we believe tt to be the best policy to not attempt oiling this year unless we can secure pcivate subscriptions making up the cost for additional oil. If it is deelded to purchase the oil, we can in fairness, use tt for one ap¬ plication tmiy, just as far as it will g9 and would feel like it should it be applied first on those streets bearing the heaviest traffic. - We estimate that in addition to the initial oiling it would require approx¬ imately $20 per block to give a sec¬ ond application, whieh is really nec¬ essary, to hare a proper oiling. We suggest that citizens in each block In- terest^hemselves aUohce and see If they can raise a subscription list amounting to $20.00 por block of 360 (eet. If thts can be* done in any con¬ siderable part o£ tbe- city, tt will en¬ able your commlssiunerr to go ahead and do the work, this year and with the underatanding that a' second ap¬ plication of oil will be applied on these blocks raising the above amount per block. Peraons interested in this matter will kindly take up with the under¬ signed at once. < E. W. BRYAN, Com. StraeU. F H. SIMPSON, Gem. Flnanea; MBMORIAL 8BRVICB8 A* XEN^. Bldar U. 8.

Remarks Of clerk i Anyway, tbe church and religious sored, influence has not hurt the preach¬ ers' boys as much ss some people have supposed. If Sunday school, church service and religious home leaves one boy wtth nine ckances above tha average, perhaps a little more religions influence would be good tor that boy of youra. Yes, occasionally a preacher has a bad boy, and once In a long ttme, he • helps to eat a yellow-legged chicken. He is getting tired bearing about them both every day of his life. He would be tickled to get hold of any kind of cooked hen these days. Mud or dust, come next Sunday. W. C.

The European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA) wishes to set up a list of candidates interested in a fixed-term work opportunity as Seconded National Expert (SNE).
National Experts are seconded to the FRA [en] according to the European Commission's rules on the secondment of National Experts C(2008)6866 of 12.11.2008 [en].
Please read carefully these general conditions before applying to make sure that you fulfill the criteria for secondment.
Seconded National Experts are staff employed by a national, regional or local public administration, or an IGO, who are seconded to the FRA so that it can benefit from the high level of their professional knowledge and experience, in particular in areas where such expertise is not readily available and gives the opportunity to the National Authorities to profit from the exchange of professional experience.
The persons covered by these rules:
- MUST be employed by a national, regional or local public administration, or an IGO;
- MUST have worked for their employer on a permanent or contract basis for at least 12 months before their secondment and;
- MUST remain in the service of that employer throughout the period of secondment.
The SNE's employer shall undertake to continue to pay his/her salary, to maintain his/her administrative status (permanent official or contract staff member) throughout the period of secondment and to inform FRA of any change in the SNE's situation in this regard.
The SNE's employer shall also continue to be responsible for all his/her social rights, particularly social security and pension. The termination of or change in the SNE's administrative status (permanent official or contract staff member) may lead to the termination of his secondment by the FRA.
The secondment contract may not be less than six months nor more than two years. The initial duration of the secondment is one year. The contract may be renewed once or more, up to a total period not exceeding four years and does not lead to subsequent employment at FRA. The contract duration is for full time employment.
Before the period of secondment begins, the national or international civil service from which the SNE is to be seconded, shall certify to the FRA that he/she will remain, throughout the period of secondment, subject to the social security legislation applicable to that civil service and will assume responsibility for expenses incurred abroad.
Candidates are requested to have a good level of English.
FRA pays for a daily subsistence and monthly subsistence allowance depending on the distance between the place of origin and place of secondment.
The FRA is a multicultural work environment and is located in Vienna, Austria
The FRA urges anyone meeting the eligibility criteria and interested in the position to apply. The FRA is an equal opportunities employer and ensures that its recruitment procedures do not discriminate on the basis of gender, colour, racial, ethnic or social origin, genetic features, language, religion or belief, political or any other opinion, membership of a national minority, property, birth, disability, age or sexual orientation, or any other status.

book review blogs
@Barrie Summy
This entry for the Book Review Club is utterly, completely, totally biased. Three friends of mine have books out, and I love the books to bits so I'm bloody well going to tell you about them. I've organized them by age: picture book through adult.
I can't stress enough how prejudiced I am. (Got that, FCC?) One book (GOOD CAT) was even present from the author, who is in my writers group. (I bought the other two.) But I swear, if I didn't love them I wouldn't be writing about them at all—I'd just shut up and smile. Really. You can trust me.
Don't forget to click the icon above for more (unbiased) Book Review Club entries!
How To Be a Good Cat
Written and illustrated by Gail Page
This is Gail Page's third book featuring Bobo, a huge, clumsy, adorable fool based on her late lamented dog, Gimpel. The New York Times once described Bobo as "the canine Oscar Madison," and that's about right.
Ever want to run away and join the circus? What if the Big Top were a spaceship, being pursued by opposing sets of intergalactic bad guys and/or bureaucrats?
When the chance presents itself to Beatrix Ling, a talented teenage gymnast whose hair has turned pink overnight, she doesn't hesitate for a minute. Her life on earth is dreary: Her parents are dead, and she's in a boarding school where everyone looks down on her. Among its other charms Circus Galacticus has the Ringmaster, a sequined mystery-man who insists that Trix's pink hair proves she belongs in the Big Top.
The Ringmaster and crew are Tinkers, outcasts blessed with wildly diverse colors, shapes and skills. The Tinkers are on the lam from the militantly conformist Mandate and from an intergalactic government that has outlawed them both. Trix, whose parents entrusted her with a mysterious rock before they died, has already had a visit from one of the Mandate's henchmen, a creep in a silver gas-mask who tried to take the rock from her.
Trix isn't sure she's a Tinker, but she'd sure like to belong somewhere. Her efforts to fit in among the circus's other young adults are every bit as important to the story as the larger issues of diversity and self-determination.
Written for younger teens (Amazon has it as ages nine and up), CIRCUS GALACTICUS is Deva Fagan's third fantasy but her first foray into science fiction. It's heavier on the fantasy than the science, which is the way I personally like my SF, and the emphasis is on characterization. I was in Trix's head and heart from page one, and I'm totally in love with the Ringmaster—he's Doctor Who with humility and real sweetness.
Settle down with this book the day after Christmas. It'll be your reward for making it through the season.
All My Dogs
By Bill Henderson
Drawings by Leslie Moore
David R. Godine, 2011
Bill Henderson is the founding publisher of the Pushcart Press and its famous Pushcart Prize. But mostly he's a story-teller, as evidenced by this and the four memoirs that preceded it.
If you've read any of his previous accounts (HIS SON, HER FATHER, TOWER, SIMPLE GIFTS), you think you know Bill's story well enough to be leery of another version. Turns out that if you want to make an old story new and fresh and charming, you simply add a dog. Or ten.
I have read three of the earlier books, and yet I couldn't put this one down. I love dogs every bit as much as Bill Henderson does, but I've never paid that much attention to what they were teaching me. Bill's chief gift is that he does pay attention.
Here, for example, is his recollection of the day in the early 50s when his dog Trixie won "Best in Show" at the elementary school pet exhibition.
She and I walked home together waving her blue ribbon, gushing in victory. (Gushing was another of Pop's verbotens. Men of that era were supposed to be reserved.) Trixie gushed whenever she felt like it. She barked when it suited her, danced on her hind feet when asked, and charged around our house and yard possessed by her dog's wonder of each second. She was a supreme gusher. Years later I would remember that lesson from her—it was OK to dance and wonder and gush.I barely survived the tale of the later dogs Ellen and Rocky—I won't tell you about it, partly because you shouldn't know and partly because I'll start sobbing. Each of the ten dogs Bill's known has a tale (so to speak) of wonder or poignancy or insight. They are enriched by pencil drawings of each dog by Leslie Moore.
Read this one New Year's Day, for solace and resolve.
EDITED TO ADD: I just realized I left out an important point (that's what I get for quitting coffee). Bill Henderson has had an extremely entertaining life--running the gamut from New York partying to religious revelation--and he tells it well. This is not an animal sob story. It's fun and funny, although also insightful.

Rams Fire Defensive Coordinator Tim Walton
ST. LOUIS (AP) - The St. Louis Rams fired defensive coordinator Tim Walton on Wednesday after finishing in the middle of the pack in his one season.
Coach Jeff Fisher announced the move and wished Walton well. Walton spent four years as the secondary coach in Detroit before he was hired last year by the Rams.
The Rams finished with the 15th overall defense in the NFL during the regular season, allowing 345 yards per game. They were 13th in points allowed (22.8).
The team finished 7-9, but was just 1-5 against the rest of the rugged NFC West.
