Rated 4.5 out of 5?by 10 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5?by Jen We love Lewiston! We lived at Lewiston Clinton Road for 5 1/2 years. The townhomes are well built, energy efficient and quiet. The staff is incredible - anytime we had any issue, big or small, they were responsive and quick to fix the issue (including the time I was convinced a lizard crawled into our house - they sweetly checked thoroughly and assured me it was impossible - they were right). We would highly recommend Lewiston to anyone, anywhere! July 31, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5?by Hilary Fantastic Place to live!!!! I have been nothing but pleased with Lewiston. My townhome is beautiful. Snow removal was prompt, always before I left for work. Nice neighbors in the complex. Outstanding attention to detail. June 6, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5?by test72157 Excellent place to live I moved here a few years ago and started a family. Place is quiet and safe. Never had a problem with staff or other tenants. Facilities were clean and well managed. I would recommend friends and family to live here. June 3, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5?by Danny Great place to live I have lived in a Lewiston at Pheasants Run townhome unit for almost two years now, and have had a great experience. There is really nothing equivalent in the area in terms of modern construction and quality. The unit has a private garage that enters directly into the living room, which I really value because it means I don't have to scrape my car in morning during the winter. There is a full-sized washer/dryer in a separate laundry room upstairs, and I have never once heard my neighbors through the walls. The kitchen is large with modern appliances, and the whole place is well-insulated (I often turn my heat off at night while sleeping since the upstairs stays mostly warm until morning). The rent is not cheap, especially for the area, but I have done A LOT of searching and there is just nothing of similar quality (to rent) in the area. I am leaving because I took a new job, but were I to have stayed in Clinton, I would have remained in this unit until I purchased a home. The property owners are also very attentive, and have been quick to respond to any issues I have had with the unit (like a loose handle on the shower faucet, for example). The owners clearly take pride in the quality of these units. Compaints: I really only have two minor complaints. Both the garbage facility and the mailboxes are centrally located. When it is 0 degrees outside, it is no fun to haul garbage bags to the garbage facility - it would be nice if garbage was just picked up outside the unit. But this is really my only complaint with the place, and is of course a pretty minor one. I have been extremely happy with my unit and the complex as a whole, and would recommend this place to anyone who is willing to pay above-average rent for well-above-average quality. March 26, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5?by Marlene Tour was impressive Although I was unable to wait for the pet friendly building to open up I must say it was a beautiful development and the apartment I toured was gorgeous! The builders used only top quality materials and appliances! The owners were so nice and responsive! December 30, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5?by John220 Comfortable and Peaceful Community Office Staff is great - always available and friendly. Maintenance Service does a great job keeping apartments in top shape and in the rare event something needs to be repaired the turn around time is great and haste free. Overall, the apartment complex is very quiet and the apartments are well insulated from sound and hot and cold. Lewiston Properties' apartments are fantastic clean, safe, comfortable units. They are all located in good locations and are a top choice if you are looking for an apartment. Overall, I have been incredibly happy with both the level of service I have received and the apartment. December 20, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5?by adk027 Very Happy at Pheasant Run I have lived here for 3+ years and have been very happy. Overall construction of the units is excellent. Professional management and the maintenance staff is second to none! The few times I have had a maintenance request it's always been taken care of the same day. Very satisfied customer. I plan on staying here until I buy a house some day. December 3, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5?by JulieG Great place to call home The units are very spacious, beautifully designed. and well maintained. The management and maintenance staff are very professional, courteous and accomodating. Great location, close to everything, very quiet and peaceful. I would recommend Lewiston to anyone.

SOUTHBURY — A large snapping turtle was caught on camera taking a walk across the eastbound Exit 14 on-ramp to Interstate 84 on Monday night.
State police said they saw the turtle cross the road, but when a trooper went to check out the situation the turtle had scooted off.

Gospel: Luke 2: 22-40
A Special Baby
Highlighted Verses: Luke 2: 22-40
When the time came for their purification according to the law of Moses, they brought him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord 23(as it is written in the law of the Lord, "Every firstborn male shall be designated as holy to the Lord"), 24and they offered a sacrifice according to what is stated in the law of the Lord, "a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons."
Now there was a man in Jerusalem whose
name was Simeon;
this man was righteous and devout, looking forward to the consolation
Israel, and the Holy Spirit rested on him. 26It
had been revealed to
him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he had seen
Lord's Messiah. 27Guided by the Spirit, Simeon came into
the temple;
and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him what was
customary under the law, 28Simeon took him in his arms and praised
God, saying, 29"Master, now you are dismissing your
servant in
peace, according to your word; 30for my eyes have seen your
salvation, 31which you have prepared in the presence
of all peoples,
32a light for revelation to the Gentiles
and for glory to your
people Israel." 33And the child's father and mother were
amazed at
what was being said about him. 34Then Simeon blessed them and said
to his mother Mary, "This child is destined for the falling and the
rising of
many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be opposed 35so
that the
inner thoughts of many will be revealed—and a sword will pierce your
own soul
too." 36There was also a prophet, Anna the
daughter of Phanuel, of
the tribe of Asher. She was of a great age, having lived with her
husband seven
years after her marriage, 37then as a widow to the age of
eighty-four. She never left the temple but worshiped there with fasting
prayer night and day. 38At that moment she came, and began to
God and to speak about the child to all who were looking for the
redemption of
Jerusalem. 39When they had finished everything
required by the law
of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own town of Nazareth. 40The
child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom; and the favor of God
was upon
Have you ever held a baby?
You have to be very careful, don't you – because babies are so tiny and fragile? But holding one is such a special thing. And every time I hold a baby – especially a very small, newborn one – I'm always amazed by their beautiful eyes, and their soft hair and their tiny fingers and toes.
It's kind of funny sometimes when tiny babies are brought into a group. People wait turns just to hold them – and often they talk about things they notice just from looking at them. Often you'll hear people say that babies look a lot like their moms and dads – or their brothers and sisters.
We just celebrated Christmas, Jesus' birth. At the time he was born there was a custom that after several weeks mothers and fathers would bring their babies to the temple (their church) to be presented. This week's Gospel lesson tells that story. Mary and Joseph bring baby Jesus to the temple and while they're there they meet an old man named Simeon.
And when Simeon holds Jesus he notices something too! Now you should know that Simeon has had a vision from the Holy Spirit – who told him that he would not die before he had met the Messiah – God's Son.
Can you guess what he notices about Jesus? That's right. Simeon holds Jesus and he realizes that his vision has come true. He tells God that he's now ready to come to heaven, because he has met the Son of God, just as he'd been promised.
Jesus was a special baby who would go on to do great things. And Simeon noticed right from the beginning. Let's pray.
Dear God,
Thank you for sending your son Jesus to Earth as a child. Help and guide us as we follow his path during the year ahead.

Though online shopping is bigger than ever before, the bricks-and-mortar retail industry in the United States remains huge—and it's tremendously important to the economy of Minnesota, home of thousands of independent retailers as well as international giants like Target and Best Buy. On October 30, Caitlin Kelly—a New York journalist who's the author of Malled: My Unintentional Career in Retail—visited the University of Minnesota to address the conference "Retail Connect: Who's Minding the Store?"
In her talk, Kelly shared insights gleaned from her stint as a sales associate at a North Face store. Among them: "One of the most powerful tools in every retailer's arsenal already lies in your hands, right now. It lies within every single one of your employees. It is the single most rare and valuable commodity in the world...it's undivided attention."

Oldest dd turns 21 this weekend and I'm truly surprised how emotional I feel about it. I don't know why - I wasn't particularly interested in first birthdays, or the kids hitting their teens... even the girls' 18th birthdays seemed pretty routine (they honestly still seemed so young). But for some reason, the 21st is hitting me hard emotionally. She seems so grown up now-an adult in a way she wasn't before, in spite of living at home...maybe because I left for basic training the day after I turned 21, and I viewed that as starting my adult life. I'm also a little sad that her (bio)dad didn't live to see this day. She's grown into a lovely young woman. She did some modeling for a local photographer this summer and I think she looks beautiful (of course, I'm wildly biased, but I think that's okay for moms).

Wow your dd is beautiful! The 18th birthday probably hit me hardest for my older ds because he turned 18 after his senior year of high school and I knew he was headed off to college and that things would never be quite the same. With Justin it was probably his 21st (this past March). Even though he was living at home I thought back on all that he'd gone through the last couple years and I wondered how in the world my baby had turned 21 and where the time had gone...
|Thu, 08-25-2011 - 1:08pm
|Thu, 08-25-2011 - 3:58pm
I agree - she's really beautiful.
I didn't feel that emotional at DD's 21st BD, more relieved that I didn't have to wonder about underage drinking.
|Thu, 08-25-2011 - 4:00pm
THAT hit me. Not only is she all grown up--but I've grown OLD.
Hmmm.. maybe that is part of the problem - *I* feel the same as when I was 21... therefore, how can I possibly have a daughter who is 21? I mean, I'm very happy with my life, and I wouldn't trade it for when I actually was 21, but still - all evidence to the contrary, I still think of myself as young. If only I could square that away with having an adult child. ;)
How does it feel to be almost a grandma? Again, I theoretically understand that I have two children who could become grandparents, but when I think of grandparents, I don't feel like I could be in that category (yep, doesn't make any sense, right? They can be parents, but I can't be a grandma yet?)

Tami's StoryThis is a variation on a recipe I got a few years ago off of Paula Deen's show "Paula's Home Cooking". Paula used a very well known brand of chessmen shortbread cookies in hers. Well, one day I had a craving for this rich dessert, but I didn't have any of those cookies on hand. What I DID have was some leftover poundcake I'd baked earlier in the week, and some pecan sandies!! So, using what I had, I came up with this version. After trying it out on family, friends, and co-workers, they told me they like this rendition MUCH better. Hope you like it too!!! Enjoy!
large frozen loaf poundcake, thawed, and cut into cubes
ripe bananas, sliced
bag of pecan sandies, coarsely crumbled
5 oz
box instant pudding mix, cheesecake or vanilla flavor
2 c
14 oz
can sweetened condensed milk
8 oz
cream cheese, room temperature
12 oz
tub whipped topping, thawed
Directions Step-By-Step
1In a bowl, combine the milk and the pudding mix and blend well using a handheld electric mixer until slightly thickened. The pudding will continue to thicken as it sets up. In another bowl, combine the cream cheese and condensed milk together and mix until smooth and creamy.
2Fold the thawed whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture. Add the cream cheese mixture to the pudding mixture and stir until well blended. Now the fun part! Dump the bananas, the pound cake, and half of the crumbled cookies into the cream cheese/pudding mixture. No need for all the fussy layering - just dump everyone into the pool!
3Now, spread the mixture into the baking dish, and cover the top with the remaining crumbled cookies. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

"Great recipe. My husband has been dying to make our own chili chicken after loving it at Ghareeb Nawaz on Devon in Chicago. We made our own tandoori spice mix http://indian.food.com/recipe/tandoori-masala-spice-mix-333539 and used Ziyad brand red hot pepper sauce. It was spicy but actually not quite as hot as what we were going for, probably due t..."
"This is just what I was looking for! Tastes like my favorite restaurant. The key to the correct flavor was the fenugreek leaves. Thank you so much."
"This spice mix was great! I had everything on hand except for the mace and the brown cardamom but it still tasted great with those omitted. I didn't add any food coloring to the spice mix because I added it directly to the tandoori chicken so I can't review how adding it directly affects the spices. Thank you!"

Franchising to Evangelize
whole world. The local Churches ardently desired such an initiative after their synod of the year 2000, which defined the great priority as the "pastoral care of the Holy Places."
John Paul II and Benedict XVI repeatedly pleaded that everything possible should be done to help Christians of the Holy Land. This project of peace, which has been well received by all the Christian communities, and also the Muslims and the local Jews, will also create jobs and relations with numerous countries, and give all our brothers of the Holy Land new reasons to stay, in keeping with their vocation.
This great project of reunion around Mary, is supported by three patriarchs, nine cardinals, the bishops of the major Marian shrines -- Loreto, Lourdes, Guadalupe, Czestokowa, Aparecida, etc. -- many [famous] personalities, 25,000 donors, 2,000 men of prayer and 50,000 subscribers who receive our free information bulletin, "Minute with Mary," every day on the Internet.
The Mary of Nazareth project will increasingly unfold in a logic of openness and association with all Christian movements and producers that share the same goals and the same desire of evangelization through the media.
Q: What is a Marian center associated with Mary of Nazareth?
Bonnassies: An associate Marian center is a very simple concept: It is a place where the public can come to discover the Virgin Mary -- in a new and intense way -- and the whole of the Christian faith, through multimedia productions that, if possible, will be constantly renewed.
Q: Where will associate Marian centers will be built in the future?
Bonnassies: The projects will always be implemented at the request of the local bishop, with the commitment of a religious community, for daily care.
The places will be found practically in the numerous existing shrines, large or small, or in other suitable places: Above all there will be a need for the faith to be proclaimed in a strong, modern and attractive way, to touch in a new way people whom the Church has not succeeded in reaching.
In addition to the structures of important dimensions of the associate Marian centers, which receive thousands or millions of faithful, it will also be possible to present all or part of audiovisuals of evangelization developed by Marian centers in special halls, made available either by the shrines or already existing places of evangelization.
Q: How and who will manage these Marian centers -- associated with the International Marian Center of Nazareth -- which you will multiply in the world?
Bonnassies: The associate Marian centers created in the future will always be managed and financed locally by those who take charge of them. It could be communities, congregations or movements encouraged and supported by their bishops.
The Marian center will function as a "franchise," which means that we will make available to them free of charge all the audiovisual productions developed in the framework of our project. By way of exchange, the centers will give back 9% of their earnings generated by [entrance fees] to the center and by these activities -- fees, shop, restaurant, etc.
It should be specified that this project, which responds to a classic commercial structure, is not geared to profit. All the directors of the Mary of Nazareth association have always been volunteers, and will continue to be so in the future. The earnings that our association will receive -- which we hope will be ever greater as the number of associate Marian centers increases -- will only be used for two ends: to constantly produce new multimedia contents of great quality at the service of the Gospel and to support the Marian centers that are in difficulty, especially in countries where evangelization is more difficult.
These simple principles could allow many to join this selfless project, totally at the service of evangelization, and find the means for its development.
Q: How many people do you hope to reach?
Bonnassies: At present we are working on a "model Marian center," which would cost some �2 million and could receive 150,000 people a year. We believe that this type of center might find a financial solution in all developed areas that could equal several million people. We hope that there will be dozens of centers of this type in the coming years, which all together would be visited by several million people a year.
If we succeed in this, if this helps numerous people in the world to discover Mary, and through her and with her, Jesus our Savior, and if associated sites on the Internet also have a great audience, this would be fantastic.
This will also change many things, because it will mean that we have created an important network of Christian distribution which does not exist at present, and which will benefit everyone.
Because all Christian producers who so wish will be able to contemplate the possibility of developing projects of greater breadth, given that they will have the possibility to find more easily a larger public and hence be able to obtain greater cost-effectiveness. The multiplication of Marian centers might also be a fantastic opportunity that leads to the discovery of the beauty, profundity and truth of the Christian faith.
Q: Are you seeking associates at present for all this?
Bonnassies: It is a project that, evidently, is difficult to construct, and all people of good will are welcome.
Those who have the possibility of foreseeing the creation of a Marian center associated to that of Nazareth in their country or region, can begin to reflect on it, in connection with their bishop.
This project will be carried out in association with all those who love the Virgin Mary and who long for the Holy Land, for the unity of Christians and for the evangelization of the world.
In past centuries, our [forefathers] built cathedrals; at the start of this third millennium, we hope to build Marian centers that will radiate the faith to today's world!
It is a privilege and a profound joy to participate in such a project. All of us volunteers and benefactors live it as such. The past years have demonstrated that Providence wills it.
Thousands of human beings in the world are waiting for the Gospel. The participation of all those who feel called to this project is truly necessary.

Research Summary
Human systems neuroscience
Mapping the human brain requires integrating technologies that allow measuring behavior and brain signals evolving over slower and faster time scales. Behavior is organized at multiple time scales. It take years to acquire fluency in non-native languages, but car drivers can reliably pay attention to approaching danger in congested rush-hour freeways in a matter of milliseconds. Such large operational range requires distinct, dedicated brain mechanisms. The mechanisms involved in processing slow-evolving events may depend on both, changes in the activity of populations of neurons as well as changes in the properties of networks of white-matter fascicles. The mechanisms dedicated to fast information processing are believed to be coded in the spikes and synaptic activity of neuronal populations.
I study the brain and psychology of individuals from a systems neuroscience perspective. This means that I am interested in understanding how neurons in different brain areas connect together to form networks. I combine multiple neurobiological measurements to study how the mechanisms of these brain networks determine our vision of the world, values and motivate our behavior. My research relies on a model-based approach. Models are implementations of otherwise abstract theories; they allow for generating specific predictions for human behavior or brain connectivity. Errors in model prediction can be exploited to test and falsify alternative theories. I use neurobiological measurements from two magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technologies (diffusion and functional MRI). Using these measurements in living human brains I build models that predict either the properties of the brain network of connections (the connectome) or human behavior from brain activity.
Model-based neuroanatomy
Mapping the network of white-matter connections in living human brains. Magnetic resonance diffusion imaging and computational tractography are the only technologies that enable neuroscientists to measure white matter in the living human brain. Diffusion MRI provides a way to measure the changes in brain structures and tissue properties evolving over long time frames-weeks, months and years. In the decade since their development, these technologies revolutionized our understanding of the importance of white-matter for health and disease. Prior to these measurements, the white matter was thought of as a passive cabling system. But modern measurements show that white matter axons and glia respond to experience and that the tissue properties of the white matter are transformed during development and following training. The white matter pathways comprise a set of active wires and the responses and properties of these wires predict human cognitive and emotional abilities in health and disease. We can now predict confidently that to crack the neural code in mapping the human brain, neuroscientists will have to develop an account of the connections and tissue properties of these active wires. Diffusion imaging and computational tractography enable investigators to map the network of white matter tracts. Whereas there are many impressive findings using this technology, it is widely agreed that there is an urgent need to keep developing and improving tractography methods.
Evaluation and statistical inference in living connectomes. At Stanford University, I developed a technology, called LiFE - Linear Fascicle Evaluation, to perform both tractography validation and statistical testing on the network of brain connections. Previous validation methods are extrinsic. Investigators have demonstrated that tractography algorithms generate reasonable estimates by checking in phantoms and ex-vivo tissue. These methods do not take into account the quality of a specific tractography solution (the connectome) obtained from a specific group of subjects and a specific instrument. Extrinsic validations ask us to believe a tractography solution obtained from a child with a 3T GE scanner based on a validation carried out on a ex-vivo macaque brain from a 7T Siemens scanner. LiFE can be applied to the data at hand rather than appealing to validations based on very different datasets-I call this method native validation. I utilize Big Data and machine-learning methods to treat connectomes as models of the measured white-matter signal. The model generates a prediction of the measured diffusion signal. The model prediction-error is used to identify the network of brain connections best supporting the measured diffusion signal by rejecting false connections. The technology a principled way to test hypotheses about the geometric structure of white-matter fascicles and to compare the accuracy of different connectomes-I call the method virtual lesion. These method can be applied to any type of diffusion data in healthy and diseased populations. These new methods improve current techniques in fundamental ways. A full open-source software implementation of the method is available here.
Mechanisms of motivation and attention
Predicting perceptual decision-making from human brain activity. Functional MRI provides neurobiological measurements on the neuronal, synaptic and neuromodulatory mechanisms evolving over fast time scales-seconds, minutes and days. Fast information processing is important for goal-oriented behavior and decision-making. Healthy brains implement several mechanisms to quickly and reliably associate sensory inputs with internal goals and behavioral choices. Attention is an umbrella-term we use to address experimentally the set of brain mechanisms that deal with the selection of information. There are several types of attention. For example, primates can attend to a location in space, an object or feature-such as a color. During graduate school I studied the behavioral changes in contrast and visual acuity thresholds elicited by exogenous attention. This is the type of attention car drivers use to detect approaching danger. Contrast and acuity are fundamental processes that happen early on in the visual analysis. They are necessary for most subsequent perceptual processes; stimuli below acuity- or contrast-threshold are invisible to us. In a series of articles I showed that when attention is attracted to a location in the sensory scene, visibility improves. Concurrently to improved vision at attended locations, both contrast sensitivity and acuity are impaired at locations away from attended ones (Pestilli & Carrasco Vision Research 2005; Pestilli, Viera & Carrasco Journal of Vision 2007; Montagna, Pestilli & Carrasco Vision Research 2009; Pestilli, Ling & Carrasco Vision Research 2009). These behavioral trade-offs have matched effects on cortical activity, whereby the fMRI response in early visual cortex increases at attended and decreases at unattended locations (Liu, Pestilli & Carrasco Neuron 2005).
Attention and visual selection. A fundamental endeavor of neuroscience is to identify the neural mechanisms supporting healthy human decision-making. A successful way to embark in such an effort is by using computational methods to predict decision-making from brain activity. The challenge of such an approach is that it requires concurrent measurements of cortical activity and behavior in tasks for which models can be formulated to quantitatively predict the two measurements. When Gustav Fechner initiated what we call Psychophysics, he had specifically this problem in mind. Fechner had no access to measurements of brain activity, which he replaced with the psychological quantity just-noticeable-difference (JND). Recently, I used the very idea of JND in combination with measurements of brain activity (fMRI) and computational modeling to test the predictions of three alternative models of attentional enhancement. We demonstrated that improvements in behavioral sensitivity with attention are fully accounted for by a model of visual selection (a gating mechanism that pools sensory signals across the visual scene) that does not requires a change in quality of the sensory representation (Pestilli et al., Neuron 2011; Gardner, Hara and Pestilli, Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience in review).
Mechanisms of value processing and motivated behavior. Many situations require selecting one among several options of different value. In these situations valuation and preference drive motivation and behavior. Although attention allows for selecting task-relevant information out of the sensory scene, many decisions depend on the subjective value assigned to alternative options. About one hundred years before Fechner, Daniel Bernoulli (1700-1782) suggested that valuation conforms to a psychological rule akin to the JND proposed by Fechner for sensory Psychophysics. Bernoulli proposed that humans decide among alternatives by using internal utility not extrinsic value. Just like for the JND, utility is equal for alternatives with values of equal ratio. Bernoulli's Utility Theory held still for more than two-hundred years until Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman in the 1980s showed that the theory has flaws. They proposed the Prospect Theory, suggesting that utility is not absolute, but depends on the prospective of the decision-maker. Critically, they demonstrated that humans are loss averse; utility is higher for losses than gains of identical absolute value [11]. We investigated the effects of loss aversion, expecting gains versus losses, on perceptual decision-making and cortical activity in early visual cortex (Pestilli, Khan & Ferrera, Society for Neuroscience 2011). We measured fMRI response in early visual cortex concurrently with contrast discrimination thresholds for stimuli of different expected value. We used a computational model to manipulate task difficulty and expected value on a trial-by-trial base. The model determined that on half the trials observers had to perform a perceptual judgment expecting to win. On the other half of the trials subjects performed an identical judgment but expecting to lose. Both perceptual judgments, stimuli and absolute values were identical for gain- and loss-trials. We found that behavioral sensitivity improved and cortical response increased with value in early visual cortex (V1, V2, V3, hV4). The increase followed the log-expected absolute value but was, independent on whether the expected outcome was a loss or a gain. This is predicted by the Utility Theory. Most importantly, cortical responses in early visual cortex increase more for loss-predicting stimuli than for gain-predicting stimuli of equal value: an effect predicted only by the Prospect Theory (Pestilli, Khan and Ferrera in preparation).

Rick Cochran takes the lead of Los Cinco
La Romana, Dominican Republic (May 19, 2014) - Although the feeling was bittersweet after wasting a four-stroke lead with less than nine holes to play, Rick Cochran III put another brick in his long term goal to stay within Los Cinco.
Not only is he still adding more money to his account, but after his second place at the DR Open 2014, he is now the leader of Los Cinco: "What is important is to be close every week to reach the ultimate goal," said Cochran III who now totals four second-place finishes in seven starts. He's the first in the history of Los Cinco to get to No. 1 without having won.
Michael Buttacavoli managed to climb the leaderboard with his victory at Teeth of the Dog and now he is in 7th place, less than $1,500 from the fifth place (Daniel Mazziotta).
Another who climbed on the list was the Argentine Julian Etulain, who now ranks 11th, after his third place in the DR Open.
The top 10 of the Order of Merit has six Americans, two Colombians, a Mexican and an Argentine.
Los Cinco after the Dominican Republic Open 2014:
1) Rick Cochran III (USA) $49,069
His numbers throughout the season are astonishing. He has finished second four times in seven events and his consistency and talent is envied by many. Cochran III has an average score of 69.8 and one of his keys to success is that he makes birdie on 56 percent of the par-5s he plays. He has missed only one cut in 2014.
2) Marcelo Rozo (Colombia) $44,642
He finished 34 ° after three good rounds, but a bad round on Saturday (77 shots) kept him away from fighting for the tournament. Despite losing the first spot, he has high confidence and is a player to be considered each and every week.
3) William Kropp (USA) $42,615
The winner of 83 ° ABierto OSDE del Centro added another top 5 (second of the year) which allowed him to open a gap with their pursuers. Kropp, however, shows some irregularity having missed three cuts so far in 2014.
4) David Vanegas (Colombia) $35,258
The Colombian, who began the season on top of Los Cinco, is slowly losing pace and his game has lost strength. Vanegas missed the cut for the second consecutive week, with no rounds under par. He needs to get back on track to keep what has been achieved in the first part of the season.
5) Daniel Mazziotta (USA) $33,413
After his victory in Merida, he missed the next three cuts. The title in the Mundo Maya Open and T4 in Colombia allow Mazziotta to still be within Los Cinco but his pursuers are getting close.
