rsation about how to get China to
join the United States in putting pressure on Pyongyang, according to a
senior administration official who was present. The debate encapsulates
America's struggle to come up with a strategy based on
sticks, carrots or a combination of both to convince
China to police its own backyard.As Kerry heads to East Asia for
his first time as America's top diplomat, some progress has been made
in convincing Beijing, North Korea's biggest benefactor, to start getting
tough with its neighbor. The question is whether it will make a
difference.North Korea's government agency said Thursday that it has "powerful
striking means" on standby for a launch, amid speculation in Seoul and
Washington that North Korea will test-fire a mid-range missile designed
to reach the U.S. territory of Guam in the Pacific Ocean. It
was the latest warning from the North, which launched a long-range rocket
in December and conducted an underground nuclear test in February.For years,
Washington has been putting its hopes in Beijing to rein in the
provocative behavior and combative rhetoric from North Korea. China has
more leverage over the North than any other country, having massively boosted
trade ties with the isolated regime in recent years and maintaining close
military relations.But the U.S. has been frustrated by the reaction from
a government that in many ways has different priorities. China, analysts
and officials often say, f
HERZLIYA, Israel The head of the U.S. company leading natural gas
exploration off Israel's coast on Thursday urged the country to develop
a national gas export policy, warning that government tax policy was scaring
off potential investors.Charles Davidson, CEO of Texas-based Noble Energy,
criticized Israel's decision in 2011 to nearly double tax rates on gas
profits after his company had already invested $1 billion in an offshore
field. He said the "very unusual" move may have driven away companies
from investing in Israel's emerging gas sector.He said he sensed hesitation
from potential investors who could help develop the Leviathan field, a large
find that is expected to produce enough gas for export."I felt that
.. companies were a little bit reluctant because of what had happened
on taxes in the past," Davidson said at the company's local offices
in the coastal town of Herzliya.In 2011, Israel's government raised taxes
on gas and oil finds, boosting the revenues to between 52 and
62 percent from under 30 percent.Davidson is in Israel after gas from
Tamar, one of Israel's new, sizable fields, started being extracted last
month. He hopes to convince authorities to agree on an export policy
that would provide clarity for investors looking to develop the resource.
For now, the gas is being used for domestic use only and
sold at fixed, previously negotiated prices.On Wednesday, Davidson met Israeli
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and

closer now than we have been in 25 years for serious immigration
reform," Durbin told reporters Wednesday after he and other Democrats in
the Senate negotiating group briefed members of the Congressional Hispanic
Caucus. "This president is behind it, and there is a strong, growing
bipartisan effort in the Senate to support it. We hope that the
House will do the same."Meanwhile tens of thousands of pro-immigration activists
massed outside the Capitol and in cities around the country to push
Congress to act. They waved American flags and carried signs reading, "Reform
immigration for America now!"The border security piece of the legislation
is critical to getting support from Republicans, but some Democrats have
opposed making a path to citizenship contingent on border security. Sen.
Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said that the new requirements wouldn't impede citizenship."A
lot of people here would not want to put dollars into the
border, but as a price to get citizenship, as long as it's
not an impediment to citizenship but rather works alongside citizenship,
it's something we can all live with," Schumer said, after talking to
the Hispanic House members. "What we've said all along is triggers have
to be objective and attainable in a way it doesn't interfere or
delay with people becoming citizens, and that's in the bill."According to
the person familiar with the proposals, the new border security requirements

The new Windows 8 Start screen.Microsoft Corp.Global PC shipments fell by
13.9 percent in the first quarter of 2013, and according to analyst
firm IDC , Windows 8 could very well be the reason.On Wednesday,
the Wall Street Journal reported that 76.3 million PC units shipped during
the most recent financial period, marking the biggest decline since the
IDC began publishing quarterly numbers 19 years ago.Here are the leading
manufacturers of personal computers worldwide in first quarter of 2013:--
Hewlett-Packard Co., 12.0 million shipped worldwide, 15.7 percent share,

percent-- AsusTek Computer Inc., 4.4 million, 5.7 percent share, down 19.2
percent-- Others, 33.1 million, 43.4 percent share, down 10.0 percent--
Total, 76.3 million, down 13.9 percent.Source: Associated PressThe reaction
to Windows 8 is real, Jay Chou, an IDC analyst, said to
The Wall Street Journal.Increased demand for mobile devices such as smartphones
and tablets have also played a role in this decline, but Windows
8 hasnt helped. IDC continued to say that the OS actually contributed
to the slump, saying that Windows 8 devices come with features that
dont excel in a tablet mode and take away from traditional PC
usage.MORE: 5 Windows 8 Apps to Bring B
