China's Vice President Wang Qishan likes parables. He offers tales from ancient China when he wants to make a point. I discovered that last week at the World Economic Forum at Davos, Switzerland, where Wang spoke and I listened intently on the translation headsets provided by the forum. "In Chinese history, there was a story of a devil and a demon," Wang said.

With respect to pen-wrestling Ed Helms, nobody worked harder in last night’s episode of The Office than the poor cameraman whose wild pans and zooms were presumably an attempt to obscure the terrible green-screen effect used during Michael and Dwight’s fight scene at the garbage dump.
