Paul Ryan (Credit: Jeffrey Malet, maletphoto.com/Shutterstock/Salon) For years now, Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., has bamboozled huge numbers of political journalists and Beltway insiders into believing he’s some kind of policy genius, a reputation he parlayed into a running-mate role for Mitt Romney in 2012 and eventually into a position as speaker of the House.

  • C&L's Late Nite Music Club: Gary Moore

Take a phrase, says Moore, and work on it, playing around with all the different permutations, accenting the first, second, or maybe the last notes, working on the dynamics – these are all ways of workshopping your phrasing and learning how to make more out of something simple and familiar.
