 Obama pardons “Courage” Turkey at the White House. Original Photos by me!by Caroline Treadway on Nov 25, 2009 This morning, President Barack Obama pardoned “Courage”, the 45-pound National Thanksgiving Turkey, on the steps of the White House. Flanked by daughters Malia and Sasha, Obama made a quick speech about the history of the tradition, William Pelletier of the National Turkey Federation hoisted Courage onto the green tablecloth, and Obama pardoned the giant white [...] 1,218 views |
 Olympia Snowe announces she won’t support Senate’s healthcare bill. Original photos by ele’s Caroline Treadway!by Caroline Treadway on Nov 24, 2009 I’ve been trying to get photos of Olympia Snowe since I got my press pass in September. It’s been months. Her phone line is always busy. I stake out one doorway and she sneaks out another. Senators have tons of ways to evade the press in the labyrinthine Capitol complex, if they want. Last Thursday I [...] 200 views |
 Announced today! Affordable Health Care for America Act!by Caroline Treadway on Oct 29, 2009 The House of Representatives introduced their “Affordable Health Care for America Act” today on the west lawn of the Capitol in Washington D.C., and I was there to cover it for the New Hampshire Union Leader. People from all over the country shared their negative experiences with healthcare. Hopefully things will change for the best. [...] 242 views |
 Marine Corps Marathon Photosby Caroline Treadway on Oct 26, 2009 Oct. 25, 2009-Canons signal the start of the 34th Marine Corps Marathon in Washington, D.C. 30,000 people ran in D.C.’s famed Marine Corps Marathon. I shot photos with a reporter who wrote a story about Kathryn Laganza from Norwalk, Conn., who ran with her father, Joseph Charles Moosbrugger. The father is a pretty experienced marathoner [...] 564 views |
 Sustainable homes take over D.C.’s National Mall—it’s the 2009 Solar Decathlon!by Caroline Treadway on Oct 24, 2009 Eco-homes are taking over the National Mall! Between the Capitol and the Washington Monument, the 2009 Solar Decathlon is in full swing, and solar-powered, sustainable houses are going up like crazy. Team Boston’s Curio House is just one of the runners in this year’s Solar Decathlon, a bi-ennial competition of exclusively solar-powered, efficient, eco-houses taking [...] 1,333 views |
 Review: Planet Dog’s Hemp Leash.by Caroline Treadway on Oct 24, 2009 A leash is a leash is a leash—right? That’s what I thought until I tried Planet Dog’s hemp version of the old dog-tie. Planet Dog’s leash is literally, perfect. It’s the perfect length—about the width of a wide sidewalk, the perfect weight—not too heavy or light, and has the perfect handle—fleece-lined and sturdy. The metal [...] 198 views |
 Books are still cool! 130,000 attend National Book Festival in D.C.by Caroline Treadway on Sep 29, 2009 Original photos by Caroline Treadway! Booklovers young and old spilled onto the National Mall for the Ninth Annual Book Festival in Washington, D.C., this year. When the dusty, muggy morning morphed into a rainy afternoon, the umbrellas came out and the attendees huddled in tents mingling with their favorite authors and listening to them read.

 The Capitol goes green, or actually has been for a while now…by Caroline Treadway on Sep 12, 2009 People love to hate Washington. And yeah, historically it’s been a haven for rich, powerful white guys in funny outfits. But things have changed. And on a recent trip to the Capitol, I noticed these signs hanging everywhere in the underground tunnels. Treat waste like dirt. Genius. 95 views |
 Obama’s Healthcare Address to Congressby Caroline Treadway on Sep 11, 2009 Healthcare is complicated. By now that’s obvious. With politicians and pundits debating the buzz words ‘single payer’ and ‘public option’ like they were ordering lattes from Starbucks, it’s easy to get confused and it’s hard to find the fine print. Personally, I’ve never read the 1,018 page healthcare reform bill. And I wonder how many [...] 184 views |
 Review: Cartwheels in a Sari ~ a memoir of growing up in a cult.by Caroline Treadway on May 7, 2009 In her memoir Cartwheels in a Sari, Jayanti Tamm reveals her childhood as “the chosen one” in the spiritual cult of Sri Chinmoy. Chinmoy was an Indian guru known for spreading peace and lifting extremely heavy objects. His sari-swathed followers have included Carlos Santana and John Lennon, among others. Chinmoy died in Oct. 2007. Today Tamm is an English professor at Ocean [...] 218 views |

Bayla Shepley pulled inner tubes off used bike rims on a recent rainy Saturday in Jamaica Plain, Boston. A high school student at the Cambridge school of Weston, [...] 1,776 views |
 Amazing Grass Barsby Caroline Treadway on Feb 17, 2009 With a name like Amazing Grass, I expected these energy bars to taste like dry lawn clippings pressed into the familiar rectangle I associate with flavorless meals-to-go. Luckily, I was wrong! These too-healthy-to-be-tasty sounding bars are amazingly good. They’re not too sweet or too peanut buttery. Not too dry or too pasty. Satisfying but not bloating. [...] 550 views |
 Review: Dr. John Douillard’s Ayurveda Health DVDsby Caroline Treadway on Feb 13, 2009 Everything your mom taught you is true. That is, if she told you to eat your seasonal veggies, go to bed early and empty-stomached and do yoga first thing. This DVD series features basic-to-detailed advice on weight loss, detoxification and stress reduction. Dr. Douillard will teach you how to gracefully cope with the stresses of [...] 348 views |

 Holy Tomato! [Wholemato Review via Caroline Treadway]by Caroline Treadway on Nov 6, 2008 I don’t even like ketchup, ordinarily, and I could eat this stuff by the spoonful—it’s that good. Nothing like the creepy red goop that lasts forever in your fridge. So rinse out your high-fructose corn syrup-encrusted bottles of you-know-who, recycle them, and get your hands on Wholemato. It’s organic, gluten-free, agave-sweetened and best of all, [...] 562 views |
 Ecopreneurs Wow Boston and Beyond with Cool Designs. [Bias Design, Eco T-shirts: Photo Slideshow]by Caroline Treadway on Nov 2, 2008 When Krista Siana and John Nutting started making t-shirts for friends’ bands, they had no idea they’d started a business.

Today, at 26, the two business partners own Bias Design, a Boston-based sustainable screen-printing business [...] 1,564 views |

 Book Review: Explorers of the Infinite, by Maria Coffeyby Caroline Treadway on Oct 27, 2008 Maria Coffey explores how extreme sports soothe a spiritual nerve for elite athletes. From alpinists and astronauts to swimmers and sky-divers, Coffey reveals athletes’ addiction to a fear-inspired, single-mindedness that banishes normality and welcomes mystical moments. Or maybe Dean Potter just suffers from a dopamine deficiency? 430 views |
Turistas Gone Local: An Eco Vacation to Mal Pais, Costa Rica.by Caroline Treadway on May 26, 2008 The road to Mal Pais is dusty. It’s so dusty that the torso-sized leaves arcing over the road are gray-brown shapes against the blue sky. From the back of our taxi, Costa Rica looks little like the impossibly green jungle pictures in my travel book. In the rainy season, the road from the tiny Tambor [...] 1,640 views |
