Coda's future lies not just in the U.S. Lishen told TIME it is in discussions with 20 Chinese electrical-vehicle manufacturers to supply power systems for their cars. And while much of the attention is on how American, Japanese or European customers will respond to electrics, Chinese drivers could push the technology fastest. Auto markets are shrinking or stagnant in most countries, while the Chinese car market is still growing rapidly, even in the midst of a recession. And Chinese customers may prove more receptive to electric vehicles than their international counterparts. For an American driver who has owned...
...College. Kennedy School Professor Mark H. Moore, who served on the original committee that drafted the report, will chair the University committee comprised of faculty, staff, students, and Harvard police representatives.

The electorate system, which changed in 1994 to include single-member districts, also chipped away at what helped insulate the LDP from political competition. Before the switch from multi-member to single-member districts, voters who disapproved of the incumbent could vote for another LDP member if they wanted a change. With...
...North, in other words, has now successfully placed the onus on Washington's shoulders. How will the U.S. respond? It's no secret that the Obama Administration came into office inclined to deal directly with Pyongyang. But the North's serial hostility in the first months of the Administration took Washington by surprise. It returned the hostility by tightening financial sanctions against the North and by insisting, in the phrase of Defense Secretary Robert Gates, that there was no chance the Administration would buy the "same horse twice" in negotiations with North Korea. That is, it was not going...
