[Use this form for both apiclient and oauth2client issues]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
#/usr/bin/python main.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main.py", line 42, in <module>
    main()
  File "main.py", line 38, in main
    q=['由“基督']
  File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/google_api_python_client-1.0beta7-py2.6.egg/apiclient/discovery.py", line 454, in method
    actual_path_params, actual_query_params, body_value)

    x = x.encode('utf-8')
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe7 in position 0: ordinal 
not in range(128)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected English translation of Chinese characters.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Mac OS X 10.6 and python 2.6.1

Please provide any additional information below.
Googled extensively to locate code to attempt to modify model.py to encode 
utf-8, but I am fairly new to python, and probably barking up the wrong tree.
