Here's what's on our radar this week:
'Velvet Undercover'
Follow us online ONLINE gonortheastoregon.com TWITTER @gonortheastoregon PINTEREST @gonortheastoregon FACEBOOK @gonortheastoregon INSTAGRAM @gonortheastoregon
I'm into books, but I'm especially excited when I discover a new author — and when that author has a few books to her name. I had the opportunity to meet Teri Brown, a Portland author, when she came to Baker City for a book signing on Halloween. It was fun to visit with her about her newest young adult novel 'VelvetUndercover" thatisset during World War I. In it, 17-yearold Samantha is recruited by La Dame Blanche to be a spy.
P Her mission is to go undercover into Germany to help another
spy escape. I like historical fiction because I learn a bit about history in the form of an entertaining story, and 'Velvet Undercover" takes the reader right into the middle of the war. Sam is quite well aware that she would be shot on the spot if discovered, yet she does her job as best she can. My daughter also enjoys historical fiction, and she is now zoomingthrough the book.
Another bonus — we can be our own little book club when we're reading the same novels. Being a spy novel, it describes different ways to write in code, so Olivia and I have been practicing our code writing by passing notes back and forth. I really enjoyed this book, and am lookingforward toreading "Born of Illusion," also by Brown. Itis the firstin a series about a girl who is supposedly the illegitimate child of Harry Houdini. — Lisa Britton,Go! writer

Elvis Presley with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra "If I Can Dream" The arrival of "If I Can Dream — Elvis Presley with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra," an album that posthumously grafts orchestral arrangements onto 14 Presleyrecordings,raisesthe question: Are we headed back to the bad old days in Elvisville? Upon Presley's death at 42 in
1977, his label, RCA Records, began issuing one compilation after another to meet the heightened demand aroundthe world for his music, often with little regard for what made sense musically. There was "Elvis: A Canadian Tribute," a gathering of songs he'd recorded by Canadian songwriters, and "Elvis Sings forChildren and Grownups Too," which collected "iLet Me Be Your) Teddy Bear" and other playfully titled songs. Things improved considerably after archivist Ernst Jorgensen was brought in to supervise new compilations in the '80s, and the label issued definitive single albums and box sets documenting key aspects of Presley's musical

The meringue buttercreams are a wee more difficult to prepare and generally harder to master. The reason is that these egg foams utilize an egg product that must be cooked either prior to whipping 01' durmg.
For Swiss, the raw egg whites are mixed with granulated sugar and this mixture is heated over boiling water to 160'F to safely cook the eggs before being whipped to sti ffpeakswhere softened butter cubesare added one atatim eand whipped until flufFy. This buttercream tendsto be thedensest meringue style due to being cooked prior to whipping. It tastes similar to marshmallows as the process is similar to theirs. Italian and French are far more complicated as they involve whipping the eggs first until flufFy and then pouring a boiling syrup of sugar into the eggs as they mix. This both cooks and stabilizes the foam. After cooling the foam the softened butter is whipped piece by piece into the mixture. This results in Swiss being glossy and shining with a textureoffluK The only difference between Italian and French styles is that the Italian uses only egg whites and French the yolks Italian is bone whiteand fi rm and French is always a pale yellow due to the
yolks. Maybe you're the type of confection connoisseur who prefers only a touch of frosting to your cake. Or possibly you're a gourmand who favorsa plenitude ofsweetcreaminess on your pastry.

Northeast Oregon eats WHERE I ATE:Sumpter Junction, 2 Sunridge Lane, Baker City WHAT I ORDERED:Caesar San Carlos salad THE VERDICT:In Baker City, there are several places to get Barley Brown's beer, and also more than one place to order the brew pub's signature dishes. The same family owns Barley Brown's and the Sumpter Junction restaurant. Each offers a very different atmosphere, and we usually find ourselves heading to Sumpter Junction because we can order our favorites and the kids like to order breakfast for dinner. However, the major attraction is the model train that winds its way around the perimeter of the restaurant and is decorated differently for each season. On this visit, I ordered my favorite salad that I first discovered at Barley Brown's — a Caesar San Carlos with crisp romaine lettuce, tortilla strips, grilled chicken breast, cojita cheese and blue Caesar dressing. It's flavorful and filling — although I did still have room for a few french fries stolen from other plates. Sumpter Junction always has two or three Barley Brown beers on tap, and will also fill growlers. — Lisa Britton, Go! staff

ENTERPRISE — Gospel singer Liz Vice will perform at the OK Theatre from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m on Saturday. Her ardent renditions of songs penned by Josh White were released September 2015 on her debut album, "There's A Light."A Portland native, she has recently returned from a cross country tour with stopovers in New York City and Philadelphia. Whether jazz, R&B, or classical, the soulfulvoiceofthis32-year-old comes from the depths ofsuffering poverty and sickness. She was one of five children raised by a single mother. At age 15, Vice was diagnosed with an auto-immune disorder which led to her need for continued dialysis. Though every day was a struggle, her faith was established during this time. While studying to be a medical assistant, she was granted a kidney transplant. "Empty Me Out," a song of surrender, highlights the album. "This song is about more than vulnerability," Vice explains."[It) is about giving up that control to wherever life is leading." After her surgery, Vice endeavored to become a filmmaker to portraypeople without stereotypes. Though she had to push through her own shyness, Vice was inspired to audition for the worship team at her church. She was accepted, and in time was called upon to give a solo performance before 400 congregants. The power ofher singing led to aninvitation torecord songs written by her pastor, Josh White.

Gospel singer Liz Vice will be performing at the OKTheatre. The record has earned praise from N PR Music, OkayPlayer and Jon Pareles of The New York Times, who called it"the connection between gospel music and 1960s soul." She was recently featured in an OPB radio interview.
A listener would assume her roots lay in the Bible Belt of the South, where gospel music is a colorful thread in the fabricofthat culture. That this Portlander can command the stage in a comparable manner is both inspiring and

entertaining. Regarding her performances, Vice says, "It's hard being human. W e are going to bring peoplein and say, 'For this moment in time we are going to forget about how hard our day was, and we are just going to play.' I am going to sing some hope over them."

La Grande's Liberty Theatre opened in 1910 as the OrpheumTheatre, where vaudeville performances were held. In February 1911, the theater's name was changed to the Arcade Theatre, and itbecame a movie house, according to a history provided on the LibertyTheatre Foundation website. During this era, the theater building was upgraded and its facade transformed into what people seetoday. The Arcade played its first "talkie" in 1929 as the era of silent films came to an end. The theater became known as the Liberty when it changed hands in the 1930s and was eventually known as the "fanciest" theater of its time, according to the Liberty website. However, the building closed in 1959 and was converted to retail space in 1962. For the past five years, the group, which came to be called the Liberty Theatre Foundation and secured its 501c3 status, has been working to restore the century-old building and restore it to a performing arts center. The foundationhascompleted three of five exterior renovation projects, including brick re-pointing, mansard repair and upper window rehabilitation. It continues working on funding for the blade sign and its canopy. This year, the group completed interior demolition work to pave the way for a complete restoration. — KellyDucote

LA GRANDE — Theater professor Ken Bush is directing his last play at Eastern Oregon University, called "August: Osage County" performing at 7 p.m today through Saturday at McKenzie Theater in Loso Hall on campus. Bush first saw the 2008 Tony Award-winning play on Broadway in 2009, and "it was very impressive." He liked the strength of the female characters and what he describes as "a very, very good dialogue, which gives you lots of information about the family and shows you what makes them tick, what their emotional buttons are and what it is that is causing the conflict between the characters." The play opens with an eightminute prologue in which Bush briefly plays Beverly Weston the father of the family, a 69-year-old washed-up poet, who makes a tragic choice that affects his entire family. "It is a dark comedy about a dysfunctional family, the Westons, who are thrown into chaos when the patriarch, the father, commits suicide," Bush said. The playhas a cast of12 characters. The leads include the mother, Violet, played by April Curtis; the oldest daughter, Barbara, played by Brianna Troutman; and a second daughter, Ivy,
played by Xiola Kegel-Grende.

Among the most conflicted of characters is Violet, who has cancer of the mouth and is addicted to her prescription drugs. The effect of those drugs on her and her normally dominant personality make her the central character in the play. "She tries to pretend she isn't a controller, but it's pretty clear that she doesn't want anyone doing anything that doesn't serve her purposes," Bush said. "People will find some resonant moments with Violet." It'sfarfrom boring,he adds,but pay attention to the emotional roller coaster and how it changes the dialogue from everyday to something quite confrontational and volatile. "April Curtis, who plays Violet, is a faculty member in the communications department but
she has quite a bit of experience acting," Bush said. "She was quite a find." "Brianna Troutman is a returning student who plays Barbara," Bush said."Her kids are in school now, so she has returned. This is her senior project." Another senior project is Josh Beyers who plays "Little Charles." His character is a special needs personality, a 37-year-old man with a lot of child-like qualities. He's never been able to break away from the negative influence ofhis mother, Mattie Fae, Violet's sister. Xiola Kegel-Grende, who plays Ivy, comes to the stage with a lot of supporting work, so Bush was glad she was able to get this role."Ivy is the interest of Little Charles, which is not such a good thing," he said. The play features "gallows humor" cynical or sarcastic statements underplaying how bad things are and making light of a tragic situation. Violet is most outstanding in

this because she is an unfiltered truth-teller, and Bush said the audience will undoubtedly think, "I can't believe she said that!" 'The attractive thing about Violet is that she says what's on her mind without thinking of the consequences," Bush said."Sometimes she's quite funny and other times quite cutting. She crosses that line easily." "August: Osage County" plays today through Saturday. The three-act play that 2 hours and 20 minutes with two 10-minute intermissions.
