    The molest ation s tarted when th e girl was6 and continued for four years at locationsin Belmont and San Francisco.

    The victim, now 26, approached Belmontpolice last summer who then turned the

    He is due back in courtfor sentencing April 21 .

    The victim did not tellher parents until 2 014.

    She believed that Wright “meant hewould kill her family or otherwise findsome way to separate her from her family,”according to the civil complaint she filedlast year.

    The abuse would follow a similar pattern

    each time in which Wright would find “oneexcuse or another” to be alone with the vic-tim, according t o the civil complaint.

    “Sometimes the excuse was to play withnew toys, o ther times it was that he wantedto si mply show her something, ” accordingto the complaint.

    Wright never spoke during the allegedmolestations and never exposed himself ormade her touch him, according to the com-plaint.

    Wright’s wife Cathy was appointed toformer councilwoman Christine Wozniak’sseat in 20 14. Before that, sh e served eightyears on the Belmont-Redwood ShoresElementary School District Board of Trustees before stepping down in 2011.

    his Mercedes with hisgirlfriend, 28-year-oldMaria Jimenez. Bothwere arrested. Jordanremained free for month sbut was eventually cap-

    tured. Both he and Jimenez eventually tookplea deals with prosecutors. Jimenez wassentenced to a year in jail while J ordan wassentenced to an eight-year prison term.

    As the booming life sciences industrygrows in South San Francisco, anotherdeveloper expressed interest in constructinga substantial office building in the heart of the city’s biotechnology cluster of busi-nesses east of Highway 101.

    The South San Francisco PlanningCommission is set to consider, during ameeting Thursday, March 3, a proposal toerect two office buildings housing morethan 262,000 square feet of research anddevelopment space near the intersection of Gateway and Oyster Point boulevards.

    The project, prop osed by BioMed Realty,aims to erect four-story office buildings at475 Eccles Ave., along with a parkinggarage spanning five stories.

    Alex Greenwood, director of Communityand Economic Development, said hebelieves the development would furtherentrench South San Francisco as th e centralstation of the life sciences industry.

    “This is an exciting indicator of the localsurge of the biotech industry convening inSouth City,” he said.

    A proposal to proceed with the develop-ment marks a resurrection of the project,which was first proposed in 2012, beforestalling.

    The 6.1-acre property has sat v acant sincethe warehouse which previously occupiedthe site was demolished in 2013.

    As the project looks to rejuvenate a vacantlot in the hub of the city’s prized life sci-ences sector, o fficials are recommending forthe project to be approved, according to acity report.

    The project is designed to “maximizeopportunities for strong and sustainableeconomic growth that results in h igh quality

     job s, in a mann er that respects t he environ-

    ment by redeveloping an infill site that isclose to major arterials and existing utili-

    ties” said the report.As many as 900 jobs could be offered atthe site, according to the report.

    Job growth has blossomed throughoutSouth San Francisco’s east of Highway 101corridor, according t o th e report which proj-ects there is more than 7.5 million squarefeet of research and development space inthe area housing most of the city ’s biotech-nology jobs, with another 1 million squarefeet expected to be added over the next twodecades.

    Should the BioMed Realty project beapproved, construction of the first buildingis slated tobegin laterthis year,and buildersare expectedto break

    ground on

    the second building roughly one mont h afterthe first is completed. In all, the project isexpected to take sli ghtly more than one yearto complete, according to the report.

    The project is adjacent to the Gateway tothe Pacific project, also proposed byBioMed Realty, which is expected to bringan addition al 500 ,00 0 square feet of officesas well as research and development spaceand amenities in t he area east of 101.

    Emily Nauseda, a spokeswoman forBioMed Realty, declined to comment onwhether an anchor tenant for the project hadbeen i dentified.

    To address the ong oing drought, t he appli-cant has expressed a desire to install low-flow irrigation systems designed to reducewater consumption for landscaping acrossthe campus.

    Of the 655 parking spaces proposed for

    the project, 551 would be included in theparking s tructure and 104 would be offered instreet-level spaces, with the capacity tobuild anoth er 53 spaces if necessary.

    To reduce the amount of cars driving to thesite, th e applicant has suggested a variety of ways t o take advantage of alternative formsof transportation , such as encouraging shut-tle programs, carpooling, biking and con-nections to regional public transportationhubs such as the city’s Bay Area RapidTransportation and Caltrain stations, aswell as the city’s ferry terminal.

    When the project was proposed initially,city officials had expressed concerns regard-ing cars clogging streets.

    Though some of those concerns stillexist, according to the report, the variety of benefits the projects stands to offer out-

    weighs the potential congestion issues itmay cause.“The project will provide economic,

    social technological and other benefits thatbalance the significant and unavoidableimpacts of the p roject related to traffic,” saidthe report.

    For his part, Greenwood said he believedthere were no issues with the project, as itwas fully vetted by officials leading up to itstalling in 2013.

    “The developer has made a decision to goforward, which we see is a really positivesign,” he s aid.

    WASHINGTON — Despite

    Donald Trump’s string of SuperTuesday victories, the billionairebusinessman must do even betterin upcoming primaries to claim theRepublican presidential nomina-tion before the party’s nationalconvention this summer, an APdelegate count s hows.

    Texas Sen. Ted Cruz is emergingas the candidate who might stophim — with a little help fromFlorida Sen. Marco Rubio.

    The good news for Trump: He isin a better position than any of hisrivals. After the first 15 states of the 2016 campaign season, itlooks like the best chance forCruz, Rubio or any of the othercandidates could be a contested

    national convention in July.That would almost certainly

    wreak further havoc on the deeplydivided Republican Party. Butthat’s of little concern for Trump’smany GOP foes.

    anti -Trump super PAC. “The goal isthis: Let’s get to the convent ion inCleveland and figure it out there.”

    While Trump has racked up 10wins so far, he’s won only 46 per-cent of the delegates awarded sincevoting b egan. It takes an outrightmajority of delegates to win thenomination.

    To win eno ugh delegates to claimthat prize, Trump would have towin 51 percent of thos e remaining

    in the state-by-state contestsscheduled through early June. Thatcould be difficult if three or morecandidates stay i n t he race.

    Trump’s main Republican oppo-nents are vowing to stay in the raceuntil the end. And that could pre-vent him from getting the dele-gates he needs — even if they can’tovertake him on th eir own.

    Delegate count: Trumpnot yet on track to win

    WASHINGTON — Reti red neuro-surgeon Ben Carson said he iseffectively ending his bid for theWhite House Wednesday, conclud-

    ing a roller coaster campaign thatbriefly took him to the top of achaotic GOP field but ended with aSuper Tuesday whimper.

    “I do not s ee a poli tical path for-ward,” Carson said in a statementposted on his campaign website,though he added, “I remain deeplycommitted to my home nation,America” and promised to offer

    details of his future when hespeaks Friday at a conservativeconference in Washington.

    He did not explicitly say thathe’s ending his campaign, onlynoting that he does not plan totake part in Thursday’s Fox News

    debate. But his long time business-man and friend, ArmstrongWilliams, confirmed that the soft-spoken candidate would no longerbe asking for votes.

    “There’s only one candidate inthis 2016 election on the GOPside, and hi s n ame is Trump. That’sthe reality, ” Willi ams said, addingthat Sens. Marco Rubio and Ted

    Cruz also should drop out, as they“also have no path” to the nomi-nation.

    Carson’s exit reduces the activeRepublican field to four candi-dates, though billionaire DonaldTrump remains the clear leader in

    earned delegates and voter prefer-ence polls.

    Carson, 64, was one of severalanti-establishment candidateswho shaped the early stages of aRepublican race defined by conser-vativ es’ wide-rangin g disgust withthe nation’s direction and GOPleaders’ perceived inabili ty to alterit.

     Yearlong spacemen embracefresh, frigid air back on Earth

    CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Ah, there’snothing like a blast of fresh, frigid air towelcome you back to t he planet after nearlya year cooped up in sp ace.

    That’s the word from astronaut ScottKelly, NASA’s space-endurance champ whoreturned to bitterly cold Kazakhstan onWednesday, along with his roommate forthe past year, Russian cosmonaut MikhailKornienko.

    In a NASA interview before heading h ometo Houston, Kelly said it was “amazing” tofeel the cold air when the h atch of his Soyuzcapsule popp ed open after touchdown.

    “I don’t mean to say it’s not fresh on thespace station ,” he said, “but there’s noth inglike new cold air coming into the capsule.”

    Both Kelly, 52, and Kornienko, 55,yearned for nature throughout th eir 340 -daymission at the International Space Station,a dry run by NASA for eventual trips toMars.

    “Just like Scott , I wanted to see Earth and

    I wanted to smell that fresh air. This is anunforgettable feeling,” Kornienko said.It was the lon gest an American ever liv ed

    in space, although nothing new for theRussian s. The world record is 438 days, setback in the mid-1990s at the former Mirspace station. Even before that, a pair of Soviet co smonauts had racked up a full o ne-year spaceflight.

    BRUSSELS — Following Donald Trump’sbreathtaking string of Super Tuesday victo-ries, politicians, editorial writers and ordi-nary peop le worldwide were coming to gripsWednesday with th e growing possi bili ty thebrash New York bi llio naire might become

    America’s next president — a thought thataroused widespread befuddlement and a gooddeal of horror.

    “The Trump candidacy has op ened the doorto madness: for the unthinkable to happen,a bad joke t o b ecome reality, ” German busi-ness daily Handelsblatt wrote in a commen-tary for its Thursday editio n. “What loo kedgrotesque must now be discussed seriously.”

    There was also glee from some Russiancommentators at how American politics isbeing turned topsy-turvy in 2016. And inLatin America, Ecuador’s president predicteda Trump win could boomerang and become ablessing to the continent’s left.

    However, the dominant reaction overseasto the effective collapse of the RepublicanParty establi shment i n th e face of the TrumpTrain appeared to be jaw-droppi ng ast onis h-

    ment, mixed with dread at what may lieahead.

    “The meteoric rise of the New York mag-nate has left half the planet dumbfounded,”wrote columnist Andrea Rizzi in Spain’sleading newspaper, El Pais.

    “To consider Donald Trump a politicalclown would be a severe misconception,”said another European daily, SalzburgerNachrichten. If Trump is elected to theWhite House, t he Austrian paper p redicted,his ideas “would bring major dangers for the

    USA and the world ... basically a national-ist-chauvinist policy that would makeAmerica not g reat but ugly, and risk the st a-bility of the international order.”

    Eytan Gilboa, an expert on U.S.-Israelirelations at Israel’s Bar-Ilan University,said the best word to describe Israeli feel-ings about Trump is “confusion.”

    There are certain p arts of h im that Israelis

    can relate to, such as his aversion to politi-cal correctness, his tough stance on Islamicterrorism and his call for a wall with Mexicoto p rovide security, Gilbo a said.

    But others have been particularly jarringto Israelis, such as comments about Jewsthat many consider insensitive and his deri-sion o f U.S. Sen. John McCain’s captivityin Vietnam.

    “This is something that every Israeliwould reject. It’s a highly sensitive issue ina country where prison ers of war are heroesand people go out of their way to releasethem,” he said.

    Thuraya Ebrahim al Arrayed, a member of Saudi Arabia’s t op advisory b ody, th e ShuraCouncil, said a Trump presidency would be“catastrophic” and set the world back “not

     just g enerations, but centuries.”

    “We pray to God that a racist, politicallyincorrect personality does not win the elec-tion ,” she said. “How can he tell Muslimstudents going there to study he will shutthe door in Muslim faces?”

    Writing in t he Financial Times of London,Martin Wolf s ummed up t he mood of a goo dshare of Europe’s business and economicelite, arguing t hat it would be a “global dis-aster” if Trump, who won seven states inTuesday’s Republican contests, made it allthe way to the Oval Office.

    Trump presidency,and many shudder

    By Michael CataliniTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

    TRENTON, N.J. — Was that really ChrisChristie, the brusque, take-a-back-seat-to-nobo dy governor of New Jersey?

    Christie’s seemingly shell-shocked gaze

    as he stood behind Donald Trump on SuperTuesday generated morning-after befuddle-ment and mockery in his home state andbeyond.

    Conservatives and liberals alike piled on.

    His expression was so grave and his intro-duction of Trump so subdued that many peo-ple joked on the Internet that he looked likea hostage reading a coerced statement.“Gov. Chris tie, b link twice if you’re in trou-ble!” one p erson t weeted.

    In a move that shocked nearly everyone,especially in Democratic-leaning NewJersey, Christie endorsed his fellowRepublican Trump last week and hasappeared at the billionaire businessman’sside at campaign appearances over the pastfew days.

    But after Tuesday n ight ’s appearance, con -servative commentator Jonah Goldberg of the anti-Trump National Review imaginedChristie was thin king : “My God what have Idone?” Others saw the same thing inChristie’s t housand-yard stare.

    Footage of Christie’s stunned look, set to

    the jaunty theme song from HBO’s “CurbYour Enthusiasm,” became a sensationonline Wednesday. And Washington Postblogger Alexandra Petri wrote an extendedriff about how Christie was “screamingwordlessly” as Trump spoke and had “theglazed and terrified look of someone whohas traded his inheritance for no pottage atall.”

    Christie’s office declined to comment onhis appearance.

    Aside from Tuesday night, Christieappears to be fully embracing his surrogateduties. He has introduced Trump at a numberof enthusiastic rallies and has been thefront-runner’s attack dog, sinking his teethinto Sen. Marco Rubio and vouching forTrump and his family.

    WASHINGTON — Debris that washed up

    in Mozambique has been tentatively identi-fied as a part from the same type of aircraftas the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight370, a U.S. official said Wednesday.

    Photos of the debris discovered over theweekend appear to show the fixed leadingedge of the right-hand tail section of aBoeing 777, said the official, who spok e oncondition of anonymity because he wasn’tauthorized to speak publicly. Flight 370,which disappeared two years ago with 239people aboard, is the only known missing777.

    People who have h andled the part, called ahorizontal stabilizer, say it appears to bemade of fiberglass composite on the out-

    side, with aluminum honeycombing on theinside, the official said.

    The Australian Transport Safety Bureau,which is running the search for the plane in

    remote waters o ff Australia’s west coast, saidthe part was expected to be transported toAustralia for examinati on.

    Malaysian transport minister Liow TiongLai also confirmed in tweets about the dis-covery that it appears the debris may havecome from the missing plane.

    “Based on early reports, high possibili tydebris found in Mozambique belongs to aB777, ” Liow said in a series o f tweets.

    “It is yet to be confirmed & verified.@dca—malaysia working w Australiancounterparts to retrieve t he debris.” He urged“everyone to avoid undue speculation as weare not able to conclude that the debrisbelongs to #mh370 at this time.”

    OKLAHOMA CITY — Aubrey McClendon,a natural gas industry titan, was killed whenpolice say he drove his sport utility vehicle“straight into a wall” in Oklahoma City onWednesday, a day after he was indicted on acharge of conspiring to rig bids to buy oiland natural gas leases in northwestOklahoma.

    Police Capt. Paco Balderrama saidMcClendon, co-founder of ChesapeakeEnergy and a part-owner of the NBA’s

    Oklahoma City Thunder, was th e onl y o ccu-

    pant in the vehicle whenit slammed into a con-crete bridge embankmentshortly after 9 a.m.

    “He pretty much drove

    straight into the wall,”

    Balderrama said. “The

    information out there at

    the scene is that he went

    left of center, went

    through a grassy arearight before colliding into the embank-

    ment. There was plenty of opportunity for

    him to correct and get back on the roadway

    and that didn’t occur.”

    UNITED NATIONS — The U.N.Security Council o n Wednesday unani -mously approved the toughest sanc-tions on North Korea in two decades,reflecting growing anger atPyongyang’s latest nuclear test androcket launch in defiance of a ban onall n uclear-related activit y.

    The United States and China, NorthKorea’s traditional ally, spent sevenweeks negotiating the new sanctions,which include mandatory inspectionsof cargo leaving and entering NorthKorea by land, sea or air; a ban on allsales or transfers of small arms andlight weapons to Pyongyang; andexpulsion of diplomats from theNorth who engage in “illicit activi-ties.”

    The U.S., its Western allies andJapan pressed for new sanctions thatwent beyond the North’s nuclear andmissile programs but China was reluc-tant to impose measures that couldthreaten the stability of the neighbor-ing country and cause its economy tocollapse. Nonetheless, Beijing didagree to several measures aimed atshutting down financing for nuclearand missile programs.

    “The international community,speaking with one voice, has sentPyongyang a simple message: NorthKorea must abandon these dangerousprograms and choose a better path forits people,” President Barack Obamasaid in a statement.

    North Korea started off the new yearwith what it claims was its first h ydro-gen bomb test on Jan. 6 and launcheda satellite on a rocket on Feb. 7. Thelaunch was condemned by much of th e

    world as a test of banned missile tech-

    nology.North Korea ignored the chance to

    address the Security Council and aspokesman for the country’s U.N.mission did not immediately respondto a request for comment.

    On Monday, the official KCNA newsagency published a commentary say-ing “it i s not hing b ut a pipe dream forthe U.S. to expect the DPRK to col-lapse due to ‘sanctions.’ This is asfoolish as waiting the missions of thesun and stars to come to an end.”DPRK are the initials of the country’sofficial name, the DemocraticPeople’s Republic of Korea.

    China, Russia and others expressedhope Wednesday that the sanctionswill lead to the immediate resumption

    of six-party talks aimed at the denu-

    clearization of the Korean peninsula.North Korea withdrew from the talksin 2008.

    Russia’s U.N. Ambassador VitalyChurkin said that “by shutting down,as much as possib le, the financing of DPRK’s nuclear-ballistic programs,the idea is to ensure the return to thetable of negotiations all t he interestedparties.”

    The resolution bans the export of coal, iron and iron ore being used tofund North Korea’s nuclear or ball isti cmissile programs but not for generaleconomic use. It prohib its all expo rtsof gold, titanium ore, vanadium oreand rare earth minerals and bans avia-tion fuel exports to the country,including “kerosene-type rocket fuel.”

    Indonesia lifts tsunamiwarning issued after powerful quake

    JAKARTA, Indonesia — Indonesia lifted a tsunami warningissued Wednesday after a powerful earthquake off Sumatra sentislanders rushing to high ground.

    The U.S. Geological Service said the earthquake had a mag-nitude of 7.8. It was centered under the ocean at a depth of 24kilometers (15 miles), it said.

    Shallow earthquakes are more likely to cause damage, butthe USGS said the quake was lo cated far from land, about 65 9kilo meters (409 miles) from the town of Muara Siberut.

    Disaster Mitigation Agency spokesman Sutopo PurwoNugroho said no damage or casualties were reported so far, butpanicked people in several cities and villages on Sumatraisland and in the Mentawai island chain fled to higher eleva-tions.

    Indonesia, t he world’s largest archipelago, is prone to seis-mic upheaval because of its location on the Pacific “Ring of Fire,” an arc of volcanoes and fault lines circling the PacificBasin.

    A massive magnitude-9.1 quake off Indonesia in 2004 trig-gered a tsunami that killed 230,000 people in a dozen coun-tries. Most of the deaths were in Indonesia’s Aceh province onSumatra.

    Marjina, a resident of Sikakap in the Mentawai islands,about 690 kilometers (430 miles) from the epicenter, said thequake was felt only weakly there, but the tsunami warningcaused panic among villagers.

    Andi Eka Sakya, head of Indonesia’s Meteorology and

    Geophysics Agency, said on TVOne there was only “verysmall” po tenti al for a t sunami because the quake didn’t occuralong a major fault known as a subduction zone.

    The voting Wednesday happened more than two monthsafter a Dec. 20 election that saw the nation’s traditional two-party system fractured with the entry of two new upstart par-ties.

    NEW YORK — Stocks eked outtiny gains Wednesday as oil pricesconti nued to recover and investorshoped the worst is over for the

    beleaguered energy industry.Telecommunications companies,which have climbed as the rest of the market has st ruggled this year,also rose.

    Indexes wavered between tinygains and losses for most of theday, then climbed steadily in thelast 90 minutes of trading. Oilprices increased for the seventhtime in eigh t days, an encouragingsign after many months of sharpdeclines. After Tuesday’s biggains, the market is the highestit’s been sin ce the first week of theyear.

    The Dow Jones industrial aver-age rose 34.24 p oints, or 0.2 per-cent, to 16,899.32. The Standard

    & Poor’s 500 index gained 8.10points, or 0.4 percent, to1,986.45. The Nasdaq compositeindex added 13.83 points, or 0.3percent, to 4,703.42.

    The price of oil has been plung-ing for almost two years, fromover $100 a barrel in mid-2014 to$26 a barrel last mont h. That deci-mated profits at en ergy companiesand hurt banks that lent money tothem. Oil has staged a modestrecovery over the last couple of weeks.

    Benchmark U.S. crude rose 26cents to close at $34. 66 a barrel in

    New York, i ts hi ghest clo singprice since Jan. 5. Brent crudegained 12 cents to $36.9 3 a barrelin London.

    Energy st ocks did the best in themarket. Murphy Oil climbed$2.08, or 12.1 percent, to

    $19.3 0, and Marathon Oil pickedup $1.14, or 14.3 percent, to$9.10 . Telecom stocks also rose,with Verizon Communications up66 cents to $52.1 2. Verizon andAT&T are trading at their highestprices in mo re than a year.

    Agribusiness giant Monsantotook its biggest one-day loss infive years after it slashed itsannual profit forecast. The com-pany cited the strong dollar,competition from lower-costgeneric products, and reducedspending from farmers because of lower crop p rices. The stock tum-

    bled $7.19, or 7.8 percent, to$85.30.

    The news pressured other materi-als companies including fertilizermaker CF Industries, which fell$1.51, or 4.2 percent, to $34.74.

    Spirits maker Brown-Forman,

    whose brands in clude Jack Danielsand Korbel, also l owered its profitestimates because of the strongdollar. The company makes 60percent of its sales overseas. It’salso b eing affected by cutbacks inspending by travelers and weakeconomies in s ome emerging mar-kets. Its stock fell $1.47 to$96.19.

    A strong dollar hurts U.S. com-panies in a couple of ways whenthey do business overseas: itmakes their products more expen-sive compared to locally -producedgoods, and it reduces their revenue

    when it’s translated back into dol-lars.

    Katie Nixon, chief investmentofficer of wealth management forNorthern Trust, said that mattersbecause economic growth is soslow right now. Still, she said it’s

    not a big problem for the U.S.economy as a whole, which reliesmore on services than sales of goods.

    “The stron g dollar is much moreof an issue for the S&P 500 t han itis for the U.S. economy,” shesaid.

    ADP, a payroll processing com-pany, delivered another positivesign for the economy when it saidprivate U.S. businesses added ahealthy 214,000 jobs last month.That followed upbeat reports onconstruction and manufacturingon Tuesday. The federal govern-

    ment will release its jobs reporton Friday.

    Bond prices fell. The yield onthe 10-year Treasury note rose to1.84 percent from 1.82 percent aday earlier. Bond yields alsoclimbed on Tuesday.

    “The Treasury yield is increas-ing because the economy is betterthan people had feared andinvestors feel that the Fed isgoing t o hike rates,” Nixon said.

    Bond yields are still relativelylow. That has helped telecommu-nications and utility stocks,which are seen as similar tobonds: they are less-volatilestocks that tend to pay high divi-dends. Investors have favoredthem in recent months as the restof the market turned turbulent.They are the two best performingsectors in the market so far thisyear.

    Sporting goods retailer Big 5Sporting Goods fell $1.38, or

    10.4 percent, to $11.91 as itoffered a weak p rofit forecast, andcompeting retailer SportsAuthority said it will file forChapter 11 bankruptcy protectionand close almost a third of itsstores.

    Digital health and wellnesscompany Everyday Health leapt89 cents, or 19.1 percent, to$5.55 following a strong quarter-ly report. Teen retailerAbercrombie & Fitch rose $1.27,or 4.4 percent, to $30.41 after itsaid its Hollis ter business did par-ticularly well in the l atest quarter.

    The U.S. Energy Department pre-dicts that the national average for agallon of regular gasoline will peakat $2.08 from June through August.

    Tom Kloza, an energy analyst withthe Oil Price Information Service,says the peak will be between$2.10 and $2.50 a gallon.

    Either forecast would leave pri ceswell below recent years. From 2011to 2014, the national average onJune 1 topped $3.60 and someplaces saw gas over $4. Last year,gas prices peaked in June at $2. 80 agallon.

    Gas is cheaper because a glut of crude has caused oil prices to tum-ble. Even with a 30 percent rallysince Jan. 20, benchmark U.S.crude closed Tuesday down 68 per-cent from its June 2014 peak.

    Motorists may enjoy th e relativebargain for a while. The EnergyDepartment expects crude prices toaverage about $38 a barrel this yearand $50 n ext year. That forecast wasmade before Saudi Arabia’s oil min-ister forcefully rejected productioncuts during a speech to a major oil-industry conference last week inHouston.

    SAN FRANCISCO — Declaringthat strong encryption is essentialto the nation’s security, DefenseSecretary Ash Carter told a techindustry audience Wednesday thathe’s “not a believer in back doors,”or encryption programs that leaveopenings for outsiders to read codedfiles.

    Carter said he wasn’t commentingon th e FBI’s legal bat tle with Appleover an encrypted iPhone used by

    one of the San Bernardino,California, mass shooters. But hisstatement sho ws the complexity of the encryption debate at a timewhen the nation’s law enforcement

    establishment isfeuding withtech companiesover the use of encryption inconsumer prod-ucts.

    F e d e r a lauthorities wantApple’s help inb y p a s s i n g

    iPhon e security features so t hey canattempt to unlock the encryptedphone. Apple and other tech com-panies have objected, arguing that

    the government essentially wantsApple to create a “back door” thatcould make all iPhones vulnerableto hacking.

    Carter was the third high-ranking

    Obama administration official tospeak at the RSA computer securitytrade show in San Francisco thisweek, following NSA Director Mik eRogers and Attorney GeneralLoretta Lynch. The administrationis making a concerted effort toenlist the industry’s support andexpertise on matters includingcyber-security and countering vio-lent extremists.

    Responding to a question aboutthe iPhone case, Carter told an on-stage interviewer that he couldn’tcomment because “it’s a law

    enforcement matter.” But he wenton to say that for the milit ary, “datasecurity is an absolute necessity forus. We’re foursquare behind strongdata security and encryption.”

    NEW YORK — U.S. airlines arelooking to serve Cuba primarilyfrom their large hub cities, withHavana being the most populardestination.

    At least eight carriers submittedapplications to the U.S.

    Department of TransportationWednesday outlining what routes

    they would like to fly. The gov ern-ment will spend the next fewmonth s reviewing the requests andis expected to award the contestedHavana routes this summer.Flights to smaller cities — if uncontested and lacking any con-tentious issues — could beapproved much soon er.

    Once routes are awarded, airlines

    will still need time to developschedules and actually sell seats

    on the flights. And while the U.S.government will set the routes,airlines will also need to apply toCuba’s civil aviation authority fora permit to operate in the country.

    All flights op erating between thetwo countries today are charters,but an agreement signed betweenthe two nations last month allowsfor up to 110 additional flights —

    more than five times the currentcharter op erations.

    Will miracles never cease?On Saturday, it was the Menlo boys’ soc-

    cer team that scored in the closing secondsof regulation to force overtime and eventual-ly win on penalty kicks.

    In Wednesday’s Central Coast SectionDivision I semifinals, the Menlo-Athertongirls’ team (15-4-2 overall) turned in a nearinstant replay.

    After getting pushed around by No. 12-

    seed St. Ignatius (12-7-4) for mos t of regula-tion , t op-seed M-A got a miraculous goal inthe 80th minute by junior forward KatieGuenin and went on to win in penalty kicksafter playing to a 2-2 tie after 80 minutes of regulation and 20 minutes of overtime.

    Guenin is M-A’s leading scorer this sea-son. But her juke around the right side thatproduced a cross-shot into the top corner netto tie it just before regulation time expiredwas not only the highlight of the year, itwent to No. 1 with a b ullet on her career hitlist.

    “That was the most amazing goal I’veever, ever done,” Guenin said.

    It proved a miracle goal indeed as itseemed to cure M-A midfielder AlissaMcNerney. The junior had left the game mid-way through the second half with a leginjury and was agonizing on the sideline,but jumped to her feet in celebration whenGuenin scored the equalizer.

    The Burlingame boys’ basketball teamfound out th e hard way th at Riordan is morethan just super senio r Eddie Stansberry.

    While Stansberry scored 18 of his team-high 26 points in the first half, it was hissupporting cast that helped propel thefourth-seeded Crusaders past the top-seededPanthers 83-74 in a Central Coast SectionDivision III semfinal game at AragonWednesday night.

    “(Riordan is) way more (than justStansberry),” said Burlingame coach PeteHarames. “They’re about n ine deep.”

    In addition to Stansberry, the Crusadersgot 23 points from sophomore point g uardJames Chun and 14 from Jo shua Boone.

    Burlingame (19-9) got a game-high 28points from senior point guard VinnyFerrari, who once again put his head downand drove to the basket all game long.Senior shooting guard Tyler Garlitos fin-ished with 21 points and 17 rebounds —recording a double-double in the first half 

    alone with 15 poi nts and 13 bo ards. Seniorcenter Bassel Mufarreh closed out his highschool career with 11 points and fiverebounds.

    But it wasn’t enough for the Panthers.With the win, Riordan (10-16) moves

    into the Division III championship gameagainst No. 2-seed and West CatholicAthletic League rival Sacred HeartCathedral, which beat No. 3 Prospect 63-50.

    Burlingame, on the other hand, saw itsseason come to a close, but the Panthers

    definitely gave it their best shot. ThePanthers shot just 24 for 67 (36 percent),but they made enough of their shots to stayclose for most of the game.

    The one thing that kept them in the gamewas their rebounding as the Panthers outre-bounded the Crusaders 44-29. Riordan, onthe other hand, stayed in the game earlythanks to 10 Burlingame turnovers in thefirst two quarters.

    The Panthers jumped out to a quick 7-2

     The Menlo-Atherton girls’ soccer team celebrates after beating St. Ignatius in penalty kicks in the CCS Division I semfinal game.

    When Cañada College st arted awomen’s go lf program in200 6, it h ired Rick Velasquez

    to run it. Since then, the Colts h ave wonseven Cent ral Valley Co nference champi-

    tabbed Velasquez to build it from theground up. Velasquez was already teach-ing several tennis classes on campus soit made sense for him to be t he coach.

    And wouldn’t yo u know, he has theColts sitti ng atop the Coast Conferencestandings with a perfect 7-0 mark.

    sprinkled with a heavy dose of noviceplayers.

    But all t hey’ve done is win.“I like the results so far,” Velasquez

    said. “We’re always trying to, no matterwhat the scores are, to improve in dividu-ally for singles and doubles so if we goto the playoffs we’ll be prepared to playother scho ols from Nor Cal and evenSouthern California schools if we get tostate.”

    For the first time in school history,the South City girls’ basketball teamis going to the ’ship.

    With a sophomore-heavy roster,South City (18-9 overall) reached theambitious goal they set at the begin-ning of the season. With a 57-49 vic-tory over Soquel in Wednesday’sCentral Coast Section Division IIIsemifinals at Mil ls, the Warriors real-ized that goal, as they advance toSaturday’s championship game toface top-seed Saratoga at a site andtime to be determined.

    “Honestly, I don’t think it’s evenhit me yet,” South City point guardBrittney Cedeno said. “It’s going tobe a crazier atmosphere and a biggerplace. I don’t think we even realizethat yet.”

    One of six sophomore on roster forthe Warriors, Cedeno had a big night ,notching a double-double with ateam-high 24 points and 10rebounds. But when her shot ran coldin the fourth quarter, it was her tena-cious defense that saved the day.

    No. 3-seed South City had to staveoff a near collapse in the final quarter.After leading by as much as 16 late inthe th ird quarter, No. 2 Soquel (17-10)surged back in the fourth, going on a12-0 run to close the lead to 51-49with 1:05 to play.

    But after the Warriors failed to con-vert on their following possession,Cedeno stepped up with the defensiveplay of the season by strippingSoquel’s point guard as she crossedmidcourt for one of her six steals onthe night. South City went on tomake six consecutive free throws to

    close out the victory.“That play set the tone for the rest

    of the game,” Cedeno said. “Afterthat, the fouls just started coming.”

    Soquel shot 38. 4 percent (15 of 39)from the field throughout, but shot 5of 10 in the fourth quarter, includingan 11-point outburst from juniorguard Nayeli Rodriguez. The Knights’team-captain scored a game-high 30

    points; and it was a testament to howhot Soquel was when she went toe-to-toe with Cedeno with just over oneminute to play and banked a despera-tion one-handed turnaround jumper tomake it a one-possession game at 51-49 for the first time since the openingminutes of the night.

    “They definitely had the momen-tum and I think we played a little ten-tative,” South City head coach PaulCarion said. “They did a good job of stopping Cedeno. But I think[Cheyanne Magpantay, AlyssaGarcia and Val Avila] stepped up andreally attacked and hit some shots.And at the end of the day, JerleneMiller just controlled the paint.”

    Miller — a 5-8 sophomore — had astrong night in the post, totaling 22points and six rebounds. Battling apair of Soquel bigs in 5-11 MichaelaThornton and 5-10 McKenzie Duran,she helped equalize things on theboards. Soquel barely outreboundedSouth City at 39-37.

    “They had very long arms but wehad to be stronger than them,” Millersaid.

    Miller kept South City rollingeven after Cedeno cooled early in thesecond quarter. Cedeno came out gunsblazing as South City outscoredSoquel 16-10 in the opening eightminutes, with Cedeno accounting for15 of the points, including three 3-pointers.

    Then in the second quarter, whenSoquel started keying on Cedeno, the

    adept ball handler started finding out-lets to Miller.

    “When she drives, it draws [defend-ers] to open me up,” Mil ler said. “Andthen I’m always there on the oppositeside for a shot when she passes.”

    The Warriors led 32-21 at the half, alead built on keeping Soquel from

    building any kind of offensivetempo. The Knights committed 20turnovers in the game to South City’s10.

    But as South City keyed onRodriguez and Duran in the fourthquarter, senior guard Rachel Edmondsbecame a third option, as she drilled aclutch 3-pointer to make it 51-47with 2:49 to play.

    “We can usually stop two shootersbut it’s tough to stop three,” Carionsaid.

    And after Cedeno’s shooting slumpextended to the free-throw line — shemissed the front end of a 1-and-1twice before Soquel closed it to 51-49— the Warriors ultimately found theirstroke from the stripe. All told, SouthCity shot 18 of 29 from the line.

    “It was just off towards the end and Idon’t know why,” Cedeno said. “Ithink we just felt a little bit of pres-sure.”

    Wednesday’s game marked SouthCity’s third all-time CCS semifinalappearance in program history. TheWarriors were eliminated by Petersonin 1977 then did not return to thesemis until 2014, when they lost toValley Christian.

    Now, Carion’s message to hisyoung team is simple.

    “This is your chance,” Carion said.“You’ve got to go get it . You can’t sayyou’ve got two more years. You maynever get this chance again. In thelocker room we talked about let’s goout and get it. ”

    Tierna Davidson’s senior year

    most certainly didn’t turn out theway she had planned it.

    The Stanford-bound midfielderfor the Sacred Heart Prep girls’soccer team, who had missed theprevious five weeks with an ankleinjury, was finally cleared to playin the Gators’ Central CoastSection Division II semifinalagainst host and No. 3-seedBurlingame.

    Too bad for the PanthersDavidson had to make her returnagainst them as she recorded agoal and an assist as the seventh-seeded Gators beat the third-seededPanthers 4-2 to advance to theirsecond straight CCS champi-onship match.

    And for the second year in a row,the Gators will face nemesisMenlo School. The two finishedas co-champs last season and fin-ished as co-champs of the WestBay Athletic League this season.The top-seeded Knights beat No. 5Saratoga 2-1 in overtime.

    SHP (15-5-2) scored three timesin the first half to lead 3-1.Burling ame (15-5-3) cut its deficitto one goal with about 15 minutesto pl ay, but the Gators regained itstwo-goal cushion with a strikefrom Carey Bradley, her second of the night, in two minutes afterBurlingame’s score.

    The Gators did not waste any

    time in going on the attack as theydominated first-half possession.Burlingame, on the other, hand,was missing that spark that had itplaying it s best so ccer of the yearin its first two CCS games.

    SHP took a 1-0 lead in the 17thminute when the Panthers failed toclear the ball out their defensive

    end. The clearing att empt deflectedoff a Burlingame play er and fell t othe feet of Lindsey Johnson, whotouched the ball into space beforewhipping a cross to the front of the goal. Gordon hit a one-timerthat hi t the underside of the cross-bar and bounced down, over thegoal li ne, for a 1-0 Gators’ lead.

    They doubled it five minuteslater on a corner. Carey Bradleyinitially went over to take the cor-ner kick, but replaced byDavidson.

    Good move. Davidson sent across to th e front o f the goal whereit found an unmarked Mia Shenk,who headed it home for a 2-0Gators advantage.

    It appeared SHP iced the game inthe 29th minute with its third goalof the half. Davidson took a

    throw-in from Lexi Lamb deep inthe Burlingame end. With on clo s-ing or putting pressure onDavidson, she had plenty of timeto assess her options. She decidedher best bet was to loft a shot ongoal from 25 yards out. TheBurlingame goalkeeper had nochance and the ball s ettled into th enet for a 3 -0 lead.

    That third goal ap peared to wakethe lethargic Panthers and theirnormally aggressive midfield,which was blunted for the first 35minutes, finally came to life. Justbefore the halftime whistle,Burlingame pulled one of thegoals back, thanks to sheer deter-mination from Grace Colson. Shehad the ball on the right flank andheaded toward goal. She won acouple of 50-50 challenges and

    stayed with it, eventually creatingenough space to get off a cross tothe front of the SHP goal. AlexisPrieto darted to the front, trapped

    the ball, touched it into space andfinished to give Burlingame somemomentum going into the secondhalf.

    That late goal appeared to liftthe Panthers’ spirits because notonly did they even out possessionin the s econd half, they controlledthe game. The midfield startedsending more and more dangerousballs through and it appeared thePanthers would cut t heir deficit toone in the 57t h when Prieto sent aperfect ball through the SHPdefense. Mackenzie Schoustrablazed past a pair of SHP defenderand just had the goalkeeper tobeat. Instead of simply chippingthe ball ov er the charging, sliding

    Caitlin Perkocha, Schoustra decid-ed to dribble around the fallenkeeper.

    But as she touched the ball pastPerkocha, she stuck her arm andnabbed the ball before Schoustracould even get o ff a shot.

    Schoustra would get th at elusivegoal a few minutes later, when shewon a 50-50 ball with Perkocha,off a through ball from KelseyAndrews, cutting the SHP lead to3-2. But the Gators all but iced thegame in the 66th minute whenBradley i ntercepted a pass deep inthe Burlingame end and rocketed ashot into the far left corner of thenet from 25 yards out to give theGators a 4-2 lead with about 14

    minutes left to play.

    Riordan responded with a 9-0 run to takean 11-7 lead, but Burlingame answered with

    a 7-2 run of its own to take a 16-13 lead afterone period.

    Garlitos pulled down 13 rebounds in thefirst eight minutes alone.

    “His job on the boards, unbelievable,”Harames said of Garlitos. “I thought he wasgoing t o take charge.”

    In the second quarter, both teams reallyfound their stride as they combi ned to score46 points. After a Jack Baker bucket gaveBurlingame an 18-15 early in the secondperiod, Stansberry started to warm up. Heopened the second quarter with a steal andlayup to pull the Crusaders to 16-15. Hethen hit two free throws and used a spinmove in the pain t for a layup to put his t eamup 19-18.

    The Panthers retoo k th e lead on a Garlitos3-pointer and that sparked a 17-5 run that

    saw Burlingame expand its lead to its l argestof the game, 35-24, with 2:35 to play in th efirst half.

    The Crusaders closed the quarter with aflurry, ho wever. Stansb erry kno cked down a

     jumper and followed that with a 3-p oin ter tocut Burlingame’s lead to 35-31. Chun thenconnected on a p air of free throws and SeanPalaad hit a jumper of his own to tie thescore at 35. Following a Ferrari reverselayup with 10 seconds left, Stan sberry endedthe quarter with a 3-pointer with a secondleft in the half and Riordan went into thelocker room up 38-37 and with the momen-tum.

    In all, Riordan outscored the Panthers 12-2 ov er the final 1: 24 o f the second quarter.

    “Stansberry’s 3 at the end got them backin it when we had a cushio n, ” Harames said.

    The opening minutes of the third quartersaw the score go back and forth. A Garlitos 3with 5:04 left in the period tied the game at

    45, but the Crusaders responded with a 19-6run to close t he quarter with a 64-51 lead.

    Burlingame tried to make a move in thefourth quarter, but the Panthers started run-ning out of gas — and players. Mufarreh,who picked up his third and fourth foulswithin three seconds of each other midwaythrough the t hird quarter, fouled out with justover four minutes to pl ay and his team down11.

    Margaret Child and Sarah McLeod convertedearlier in the shootout — was the first of McNerney’s career.

    “I just didn’t even think about it becauseif I thought about it I would just get toostressed out,” McNerney said.

    St. Ignatius never trailed in regulationplay, jumping out to an early lead with agoal in the 17th minute by forwardGeorgina Stiegeler. The senior took a flyroute through a middle lane and grabbed anassist pass from Elizabeth Wagner to earn a1-on-1 matchup with the keeper Sandovalto score on a clean rocket.

    M-A had few offensive opportunitiesthroughout the first half, but tied it up in the25th minute on a fortuitous foul deep in the

    penalty box when Guenin got drilled fromthe side. The penalty sent McLeod to thehash mark and the senior converted to tie it1-1.
