TWO BULLS An early June wildfire west of Bend burned close to 7,000 acres of primarily private timberland, the biggest blazeof the season in Central Oregon. First spotted on aSaturday morning as two distinct plumes of smoke thatappearedalmost simultaneously, the two fires merged into theTwoBulls Fire and beganmoving toward Bend. Nearly 200 homeswere evacuated, the Phil's Trail system was closed andthe city of Bend shut down its surface water intake in the nearby Bridge Creek watershed. Investigators believe the fires were human-caused, and potentially arson. More than $40,000 was contributed to a reward fund for information leading to a suspect, but six months later, the cause of the fire remains a mystery. Wedding photographer Josh Newton's dramatic portrait of a bride andgroom shot as the wedding party left Shevlin Park became abrief viral sensation, and drone footage ofthefire captured by14-year-old Morgan Tien, of Bend,andposted to YouTubeprompted the U.S. Forest Service to renewits warnings against flying unmanned aerial vehicles nearfire operations.

The shootings, and the investigations and tumultuous protests they inspired, topped an Associated Press poll of U.S. editors in a year crowded with dramatic and often wrenching news stories around the world (including new developments from Cuba and North Korea, which didn't make the cut because they happened so late in the year) Here are 2014's top 10 stories, in order.

OSU-CASCADES' FIGHT FOR A WEST-SIDE CAMPUS

Continued from A1

POLICE CHIEF'S OUSTER

sv.

Bend Police ChiefJeff Sale was fired in January, bringing to an end the lessthan three-year tenure of the first chief hired from outside thedepartment in more than threedecades. Sale had beenchief in Cheney,Washington, whenhe was hired to take over the top spot in Bend following the 2011 retirement of Sandi Baxter. Sale

In l a te 2013,

City Manager Eric King launched aninquiry into the "culture andenvironment" of the department following allegations that Lt. Chris Carney had engaged insexual relationships with three city employees and one member of themedia. King said while the Carney episode wasnot the primary factor in his decision to fire Sale, the inquiry revealed that employees were frustrated with the chief's leadership style, and that he'd madefew allies within the department during his tenure. Less than two weeks after Carney resigned, King fired Sale. Capt. Jim Porter wasappointed interim chief after Sale was di smissed,andinJune, Porter was appointed permanent chief of police.

Backers of the effort to developOregonState UniversityCascadesinto a four-year university started and endedthe year trying to defend their choice of awest-side Bendcampus location. In February, the university purchased a10-acre parcel off SW Century Drive, with an option for anadditional 46 acres to allow for the expansion of the campus in the future. A site plan was filed in March, andthe city elected to have the plan go before ahearings officer to take testimony from opponents. Led by an group called Truth In Site, opponents said the university's plan provided too little parking and on-campus housing and would exacerbate traffic congestion on nearby streets. To properly gaugethe impact of the campus, the university should be required to submit a plan for the full 56 acres, opponents said. The hearings officer ultimately rejected opponents' arguments, approving the plan in early September. Later that month, the BendCity Council heard and rejected aTruth In Site appeal of the hearings officer's findings. In November, Truth in Site filed another appeal, this time with the state LandUseBoard of Appeals. LUBAhas not yet issued a ruling.

A MEANDERING MIRROR POND DEBATE A fall 2013 leak inthe damthat holds back Mirror Pond had turned thepond into a river at the start of the year, winding andcutting through mudflats that emergedat Drake Park. PacifiCorp, the companythat owns the dam, had recently announced it was nolonger interested in using the dam to generate electricity. The dam wasrepaired in March and the pond returned, but PacifiCorp's announcement changedthe direction of ongoing discussions about what should bedoneabout silt accumulation in the pond. An inspection of the damsuggested it needed to be

replaced or thoroughly overhauled, at acost of $2 million to $3.7 million, with additional costs for engineering, permitting, dredging and possibly fish passage. In November, theMirror Pond Ad-Hoc Committee proposed replacing thedamand preserving the pond at nocost to taxpayers. Theplan calls for land owned byPacifiCorp, the city and theBendPark 8 Recreation District to be leased or sold to developers, with proceedsusedto replacethe dam, dredgeportions of the pondandcreate newpublic spaces closer to thewater's edge. Officials have released nocost estimates for the proposal.

Four fixtures of Bend life changedhands in 2014. In April, the owners of cable television and Internet providerBnndBrnadbnndannounced it was selling to Telephone andDataSystems Inc.,aFortune500company headquartered in Chicago. The$261 million sale included BendBroadband Vault, the company's data center, andZolo Media, a production company for cable television advertisers. In June, Bill McCormick announced hewas buying the Pine Tavern,a cornerstone of Central Oregon dining since it opened in1936. Thefounder of the McCormick & Schmick's seafood chain andPortland's Jake's FamousCrawfishand,atonetime,U.S.ambassadortoNew Zealandand Samoa —McCormickvowed to makeonly minorchanges to his new restaurant, and to keepthe scones. In October, founder Jim Richards finalized the sale of the Bnntl Elksbnsnhnuclubto John andTami Marick, of Sunriver. The Elks, founded in 2000, play in the12-teamWest Coast League, made upof college players on summer break.

TheBendPark 8 Recreation District broke ground on two major projects late in theyear: the effort to rebuild the ColoradoAvenueDnmto include a safe passagefor floaters and a whitewater areafor more adventurous river-goers; and theSimpsonPavilion, a wintertime ice rink that will host pickleball, tennis and other court sports in warmer months. Both projects are funded through a$29 million bond approved by local voters in November2012. The $9.7 million Colorado Damproject began in October and has progressed quickly. A temporary bridge crossing two thirds of the wayacross the Deschutes River has been constructed, and crews havebeenusing a piledriver to sink long sheets of steel into the river bottom. Sandbagsare being dropped into the river to divert the water, the first of three diversions involved in the project's construction. Construction is due to becompleted by late spring. The $11.4 million Simpson Pavilion project, at the corner ofSimpson and Coloradoavenues,brokeground in November. With a roof roughly120 feet by 240feet, the pavilion will include a 29,000-square-foot space that canaccommodate a 85-by-200-foot seasonal ice rink. A separate11,000-squarefoot building will include changing rooms, concessions and skate rentals. Completion is scheduled for next fall. Separately, the district has beennegotiating in an attempt to purchase 37acres of SE15th Street to build a new community park. If purchasedandbuilt, it would be the first large park in southeast Bend.

SEARCH FOR COCC PRESIDENT R O A D CONSTRUCTION

WATER PROJECT

Central Oregon Community College relaunched the process of finding its next president in 2014, after it was revealed thetop choice for the position was under investigation and onadministrative leave for alleged sexual assault. Patrick Lnnning with the Chemeketa Community College District was a finalist for the post when he visited Central Oregon in February, less than aweekafter he'd been put on leave for an incident at a Portland hotel. A co-worker alleged that after a night of drinking with Lanning and others, sheawokenakedandfound Lanning'sglasses in her room. Thewomantold investigators she had no memory of what might havehappenedbetween her L a nniftg and Lanning. Lanning did not disclose the incident to COCC officials, which was revealed during a final background checkafter he'd already been offered the president's job. The school started a newrecruitment process, and Extended Learning DeanShirley Metcalf took over as interim president in September, replacing retiring president Jim Middleton. Three finalists for the position were identified earlier this month, and a fourth is expected to benamed in January.

AU.S. District Court ruled in favor of Bend's plans to proceed withupgrades tn the system that brings drinking water tn city residentsfrom Bridge Creek, but legal wrangling over the project may continue in to 2015. Central OregonLandWatchandWaterWatch of Oregonfiled a lawsuit against theU.S. Forest Service in late2013, seeking an injunction to stopconstruction of the $24 million project. January filings bythetwo groups argued giventhe sizeof the proposed pipelineandthe city's projections of future water use, it was "reasonably foreseeable" that thecity will use more than the18.2 cubic feetpersecond it drawsthrough the current pipeline, potentially creating inhospitable conditions for aquatic life. Noinjunction was granted, andover the summer, the city constructed 7miles of newpipeline beneath Skyliners Road, replacing pipesinstalled in the1920s and1950s. U.S. District Court AnnAikenruled in favor of thecity and the Forest Service in December,but opponents areconsidering a possible appeal to the9th Circuit Court of Appeals. The city is continuing construction on anew$33.5 million filtration plant to process water from Bridge Creek,andadditional pipe to the system intake nearTumalo Falls.

This November, Oregonvoters were not in the mood for change in2014, returning Gov. John Kitzhaber, Sen.Jeff Merkley andall five members of Congress to office in November. While it was agood election for Republicans in most parts of the country, Oregon bucked the trend, withDemocrats nxpnntgngmninritiesin the state House andSenate. GOP U.S. SenatecandidateMonicaWehby, once thought to be astrong candidate to take on Jeff Merkieyin his first re-election bid, came under scrutiny just before theMayprimary when allegations shehadstalked and harassed former boyfriends went public. Other problems surfaced, andshenever recovered. In the governor's race, DemocratJohn Kitzhnbnrwonan unprecedented fourth term, despite controversy surrounding his fiancee, Bend environmental consultantCylvin Hayes. In October, Hayesadmitted to accepting money to marry an Ethiopian student, who got agreen card. Another former partner talked of an illegal pot-growing operation in Washington state. And questions emergedabout her influence in the governor's office, and whether she'd usedit to land consulting contracts.

It was a busyyear for crews working on road projects — and asometimes frustrating one for drivers — withReedMarket Road andthe area whereThird Street meets the BendParkway onthe south end under construction for much of theyear. The ReedMarket Roadproject, the most expensive piece of a$30 million bond approved byvoters in 2011, began in2013, with the reconstruction of the road between SE27th Street andthe BendSenior Center. Thisyear, crews turned their attention west, constructing a newroundabout at SE15th Street andstarting in on a new bridge atAmerican Laneandthe reconstruction of the road asfar as Third Street. Traffic is still restricted to a single lanebetween SEThird Street and Ninth Street, but once completed, ReedMarket Roadwill have a newconcrete road surface, bike lanes and sidewalks along its entire length from Third Street to 27th Street. Construction is projected to wrap up inSeptember. On the city's south end, theOregonDepartment of Transportation's MurphyRnntl project will also continue into 2015. Newon- and off-ramps connecting U.S. Highway 97 andThird Street were openedearlier this month, along with a roundabout at the intersection of Third Street and Murphy Road. Next year, work will shift to an extension of Murphy Road, from the recently constructed overpass abovethe parkway west to Brookswood Boulevard. Thecompletion of the Murphy Roadextension will allow ODOTto remove the stoplight where the parkway meets Pinebrook Boulevard, leaving Powers Road as the only remaining stoplight on the parkway.

The CoverOregonfiasco The fumbled rollout of theCover Oregon websitein late 2013 carried over into 2014, with the state andOracle, the company hired to develop the website, accusing the other of being responsible for the website's failure. Oregon spent nearly $250 million in federal grant money todevelop its health insurance exchange, anonline marketplace wherevisitors were supposed to be ableto compareand purchase insuranceplans inkeeping with the 2010 Affordable CareAct. Thewebsite never worked, and the state wasforced to process paper applications by hand. In April, the state abandoned the idea of running its own insuranceexchange, and threw its lot in with theexchangeoperated by the federal government. Oraclesuedthe state, and thestate, in turn, sued Oracle.

More than 3.4 million people enrolled using HealthCare.gov as of Dec. 15,andmore than 600,000 people selected plans in the state-run marketplaces, according to a Department of Health and HumanServices report released Tuesday. Thefigures are generally up-to-date through Dec.13. About half of those enrolling are first-timers and half are returning customers, suggesting there areabout 2 million Americans new to the program.

Hesaid the tip came in Friday, and Munsell was arrested that night. Shirtcliff said a grand jury will examine the casenext week to determine if further charges are warranted.

TRAIL UPDATE With ChrisSabe Conditions have improved substantially in most sno-parks after Monday's winter storm. However, becauseof the inadequate base, many areas still have early-season conditions with low-snow hazards. Middle and upper elevations have ahard, icy crust layer under the new snow. If new, loose snow doesn't bond well to the existing ice layer, avalanche danger canincrease. Backcountry users should use caution around steep slopes and know how to spot avalanche terrain and hazards. Carry a probe, shovel and beacon, and travel with capable partners in case of an emergency. The avalanche cycle often peaks right after a storm cycle. Wanoga Sno-park has about 8 inches of new snow, bringing its total up to12 to14 inches, but it still has low-snow conditions. Wanogais a very popular sledding and tubing parkand has been busy this week, so some areasarebumpy and rough andcansend tubes and sledsairborne. Visitors are urged to not build lumps in the snow-play area,and sledders areencouraged to wear helmets andto be alertfor sleds when standing or walking in the park. SeeTrails /C5

Sometimes, the two styles are combined.

Rock art

Continued from C1

Visitors to rockart sites should respect the places and the artwork andavoid touching the pictograph or petroglyph; report it to the proper land management agency if it is a newsite; not leave one's initials or drawings on the rock; and not leave anytrash. Rock art sites can be found as close asthe Four Dances Natural Area, southeast of Billings, and Pictograph CaveState Park. Cottonwood Canyon, south of Bridger, which contains Weatherman Draw, is also a region dotted with sites on public BLM land.

"Most of the art was drawn

after there was so much diaspora and warfare," said Larry Lahren, a Livingston, Mon-

tana, archaeologist. Some of the rock art sites found southwest of Billings in what's known as Weatherman Draw, or Valley of the Shields,

that some of the art could also have been made by women. One Crow r ock ar t

By FRANK STEWART Tribune Content Agency

I use computer software to check column analyses. William Bailey's "Deep Finesse" tells me whether a contract can be made or beaten. If I've learned one t hing, i t ' s t h at d eclarer can w o r k w o n ders b y running a l o n g s ui t an d f o r cing dhscards. At 3NT South wins the first club with the king. He has only eight tricks, but if he can judge how the cards lie ... Let South run the diamonds. West must discard five times. He can let go two spades, a heart and a club, but his last discard is fatal. If h e p i tches another club, South safely forces out the ace of spades. If West throws his last spade, South can exit with a club, and West must lead from his king of hearts at the end. BEST CHANCE West's best chance is to pitch two hearts without pain. South may try for an end play instead of taking the ace of hearts. "Deep Finesse" says 3NT is cold, a nd it' s n e ver w r o ng. B u t t h e software analyzes deals on a doubledummy basis. Deals are played by humans who can't see all four hands.

If h e has an unsuitable minimum such as A Q 2, K 1 7 5 4, 9 2, Q J 3, you need to stop at game. To let him help make the d ecision, j u m p -shift to thre e diamonds to suggest slam. If you do have one, he will cooperate in getting there. North dealer Both sides vulnerable

WE HAVE ENDURANCE Central Oregonhaslong been home to someof the world's elite enduranceathletes. A number of themtook their endeavors to extraordinary distances in 2014 —with impressive results. On the sameweekend in late June, Bend'sStephanie Howe andLinseyCorbinwon worldclass races onopposite sides of the globe.Howeplacedfirst in the women'sdivision of the Western States100-Mile Endurance Run inNorthern California, leading a field ofaccomplished ultrarunners with atime of18 hours, 1 minute, 42seconds. Meanwhile, in Klagenfurt, Austria, Corbin wonthe women's division of the Ironman Austria triathlon for thesecond time. In the processsheset a course record, covering the route — a2.4-mile swim, a112mile bike leganda26.2-mile run — in 8 hours, 42minutes, 42 seconds. In November,MaxKing, Central Oregon's most accomplished distance runner, added another trophy to his caseby winning the men's division at the International Association of Ultrarunners100K World Championship in Doah,Qatar. His time over the 62-mile course — 6 hours, 27 minutes, 43 seconds — was anew North American record for the distance. All of that, though, was sprint-distance stuff compared with the epicachievementsof Denise DourassaandAlice Drohna.

BEND NORTH MAKES A RUN For the second time in four summers, a local Little League baseball teamcaptivated Central Oregonians as it played on anational stage andcamewithin one win of reaching the Little League World Series.

Central Oregon high school teams and athletes flexed their muscles in a bigway in 2014, winning state titles with record-breaking performancesand extending championship streaks to unprecedented lengths. Arguably the most impressive display of the bunchwas Crook County's domination of the Class 4A wrestling championships in March. TheCowboys rode roughshod over all opposition at Portland's Memorial Coliseum, as 20 of the team's 23 state qualifiers placed on thetournament's final day. That included five weight-class championsamong themTyler Berger, whose triumph at152 pounds gavehim four individual state titles for his career. With 405.5 points, Crook County defeated runner-up Henleybyawhopping246.5points for its second consecutive state crown and obliterated the previous all-classifications record of 303 team points set by Hermiston in 2009.

But they were upstaged bythe Storm boys and senior Matthew Maton, whose time of14 minutes, 45 seconds over 5,000 meters was a course record by10 seconds. Five of Maton's teammates joined him on the top-10 podium to celebrate Summit's score of19 points — the best mark in OSAA boys state-meet history. Summit was not finished.

In May, the Storm captured their sixth straight state title in girls golf, making it nine championships in 10years. Summit was led by junior Madison Odiorne, who wore the 5Aindividual crown for the third year in a row. Later that samemonth, Summit won an eighth straight state championship in girls track and field, breaking the 36-year-old Oregon record for consecutive track team titles at any classification for either gender. NineSummit girls placed in nineevents, and the Storm won both the 400and1,600-meter relays to pile up a meet-record 125 points.

Oregon's road tothe playoffs hasbeenmuchdifferent from Florida State's By Mark Morlcal• The Bulletin

Oregon's road to the inaugural College Football Playoff was not necessarily easy, though at times the Ducks made it look that way. The Ducks won 12 games by an average margin of 26.3 points, mostly blowing opponents away. One could argue that eight of those 12 victories were basically over by halftime. Oregon's path to Thursday's Rose Bowl national semifinal in Pasadena, California, was in stark contrast to that of Florida State. The No. 3-seeded Seminoles (13-0) have won seven games by six points or fewer this season, and the average margin in their 13 wins is just 11.7 points.

Oregon All-American Shy Huntington turned in one of the more remarkable individual efforts in Rose Bowl history to lead the Ducks to victory over heavily favored Pennsylvania in the third annual contest. The win marked a significant turning point in the laurels of American football as it was finally conceded that Western football had achieved parity with the East Coast powers. Huntington's first of three interceptions late in the third quarter set up the Ducks' first score, an 18-yard touchdown pass to R.L. Tegert. Oregon's clinching score in the fourth quarter was also keyed by a Huntington pass theft as Johnny Parsons broke loose for a 45yard run on the next play from scrimmage to the1-yard line. Huntington sprinted to the corner of the endzone on the following play and added his second extra point to put the game out of reach.

given Oregon credit for the successful attempt as Harvard players banged their helmets to the ground over the impending setback. The Ducks, coached bythe school's 1917 Rose Bowl hero ShyHuntington, lived and died by the toes of Manerud andsecond-team All-American Bill Steers as four other kicks either sailed wide of their mark or were blocked.

The Case-Shiller Index — which tracks prices nationwide and in20 major cities — reported prices grew4.6 percent in October compared toa year earlier. That's the slowest pace sinceSeptember 2012, but onethat many economists say ishealthier for buyersandsellers than the double-digit growth seenthis time lastyear. From Septemberto October, prices climbed 0.7 percent after seasonal adjustments aretaken into account, though someeconomistssay those adjustments are overly generous. The reportsuggests that the housingmarket is hitting agoodbalance heading intothenewyear, said StanHumphries, chief economistat realestate websiteZillow.com.
