11 Possible Ways Dr. Burke Could Return To "Grey's Anatomy"

0

Isaiah Washington is returning to Grey’s Anatomy — but how?

ABC

ABC announced on March 7 that Isaiah Washington would bring his character, Dr. Preston Burke, back to Grey's Anatomy, seven years after he was fired following a series of headline-making altercations with the cast — most notably with the then-closeted T.R. Knight, around whom Washington was accused of intentionally making anti-gay remarks.

Washington's return is scheduled to air this May, coinciding with the impending exit of Cristina Yang, played by Sandra Oh. In a statement, Grey's creator Shonda Rhimes said, "It's important to me that Cristina's journey unfolds exactly as it should. Burke is vital to that journey — he gives her story that full-circle moment we need to properly say goodbye to our beloved Cristina Yang."

The announcement was met with mixed results, given the lingering ickiness many fans still feel toward Washington despite repeated mea culpas and his participation in several GLAAD-backed events. (For their part, GLAAD praised the actor's return.)

No matter how you feel about Washington, the question now becomes: How does Burke return to Cristina, and what role does he play in the beloved doctor's send-off?

Given how notoriously secretive Rhimes is about upcoming plotlines, no further information about the character's return was available. So we made some educated guesses.

11 Dressed-Up TOMS You Could Actually Wear To A Fancy Occasion

0
0

DIY your Toms and dance the night away in style. Perfect for a wedding or other summer soiree.

Bow TOMS

Bow TOMS

These bow TOMS were created by Cathy from Trinkets in Bloom. Classic polka dots and detachable bow clips make them perfect comfy shoes for the bride. They'll also double as slip ons for your beach honeymoon, and the clips can be reused for other shoes or accessories. If you’re making these for the whole wedding party, you could make gold or silver for the bride and use colored glitter for the bridesmaids and flower girl.

Materials: pair of TOMS, white fabric paint, duct tape, shoe clips, glue, Mod Podge, glitter, pencil eraser, scissors, foil, and plate or bowl.

Stamp your shoes. Pour a small amount of fabric paint onto a plate or bowl. Dip the end of your pencil eraser into the paint and stamp it all over both shoes.The dots on the pair shown are a little less than one inch apart.

Cut two pieces of duct tape about 4" long each. Place one piece on top of the other, sticky sides together. Trim the ends to straighten them, and cut them in half the long way.

Fold each piece of duct tape in half. Glue the ends together, then glue the two pieces together to form the bow.

Cut another piece of duct tape about 3" long. Fold it in half the long way with the sticky sides together. Trim the ends. Wrap this piece of tape around the bow and glue to secure. Let the glue dry; you can use the shoe clips to hold the bows in place while they dry.

In a foil-lined bowl, mix together Mod Podge and glitter. Paint your Mod Podge glue mixture over your bow. Let dry. As it dries, you may need to touch up the glitter.

Glue the bows to the clips. Paint the ends of the clips with the glitter Mod Podge mix. Let dry.

Attach the bows to your shoes. Since they're detachable, you can wear them in the front or the back, or even on the side.

TOMS with a Touch of Lace and Flowers

TOMS with a Touch of Lace and Flowers

These flirty feminine TOMS were created by Eileen from Yes Missy. Her tutorial will transform your everyday slip-ons into a fun and romantic pair of dress shoes you can wear to any special event.

Materials: pair of TOMS, lace, trimming, chiffon fabric, scissors, tea light, lighter, stapler, and glue gun.

Measure and cut the lace. Take your lace and measure the amount you need by lining it up against your TOMS and snipping off any excess lace.

Secure the lace with glue. With your glue gun, squeeze out a line of glue where your lace will go. Press your lace along the glue to secure it.

Add trim. Measure out the needed amount of trim and attach it in the exact same way as your lace.

Make an outline for your chiffon rosettes. Trace a 1.5"-diameter circle on your chiffon fabric, and carefully cut out 8 chiffon circles. (And maybe a few extras just in case.)

Cut out your petals. Cut five 1/3" slits into each of the chiffon circles.

Shape your petals. Light your tea light and hold each chiffon circle about 1" away from the flame to slightly melt the edges, creating a petal effect. Do this with all 8 of your chiffon circles.

Fold your petals into rosettes. Take 4 of your chiffon circles and stack them on top of each other. Then fold the stack in half to from a half circle, then fold it again to form a rosette.

Secure your rosettes. Use your stapler to secure the shape of your rosette.

Finish off your shoes. Attach your chiffon rosette to your shoes with a glue gun and you're ready to dance the night away!

Pearly TOMS

Pearly TOMS

Pearls give a classic edge to accessories, and they're huge this season. Use them to embellish your TOMS by following this simple tutorial by Francesca from Fall for DIY. Using half pearl studs gives your shoes an on-trend customization perfect for a summer wedding or special event.

Materials: pair of TOMS, half pearl beads, strong multi-purpose glue, baking paper, and cotton buds.

Squeeze a little glue onto a sheet of baking paper. Use a cotton bud to dab a little glue onto the back of the pearl beads.

Press the studs against the fabric. Start along the visible TOMS line, gluing the pearls about 1/2" apart.

Glue the next row in between the first. Continue this process, moving towards the front of the shoe. You’ll start to see diagonal lines forming. Follow these lines to help you when you’re attaching the studs to the front of the shoe.

Glue the studs. Adhere them along the sides of the TOMS using the same pattern.

Leave the glue to dry fully. And enjoy!

My First Spring Break On My Own Almost Turned Into A Horror Movie

0
0

I wasn’t sure what to expect on my first spring break alone, but this certainly wasn’t it.

I sat alone in my college amphitheater, poking at my fries. A crisp breeze rustled the branches overhead, just chilly enough to remind me that winter had only barely dissolved into spring. The blizzard of '05 was still fresh in my memory, and if I closed my eyes I could still imagine snow piled up around the trees.

My fries had gone cold, so I started eavesdropping on the students sitting around me discussing their Spring Break plans. Many of my classmates were wealthy kids from private schools in the Northeast, and I listened as they casually rattled off their swanky plans.

I had no spring break plans, and I'd been trying to dodge conversations about it for days. Truthfully, I couldn't afford to go anywhere, even if I wanted to. With just a single semester of college under my belt, I was still trying to figure out what it meant to be "on my own," and I was discovering that "on my own" meant poverty, essentially. Flying home to Montana for the week was out of the question, so my plan was to stick around the dorms and try and get better acquainted with Boston. At that point I had a pitiful lack of knowledge concerning the city I lived in, save for "doesn't have any Taco Bells" and "the Orange Line is gross, don't go on the Orange Line."

Besides me, the only other person in my dorm who was staying behind was Darla, a quiet, intense girl with dreadlocks who, up until that point, I'd never so much as spoken to. My first (and only) interaction with Darla had come late one night the week before break. Sometime after midnight I'd ventured downstairs to the the student lounge to grab a soda and found Darla bent over the sink, chopping off her dreads with a pair of scissors by candlelight. She jerked her head up, seemingly annoyed that I'd intruded.
