Walk into Madison Cellars and you’ll find empty spaces on the shelves that should be filled with bottles of wine, fifths of whiskey and other products.
Customers are quick to notice the store looks emptier than usual, said Richie Peaster, one of the owners of Madison Cellars in Madison.
“They ask, ‘Are you going out of business?’ or ‘When is this coming in? When will that be back in stock?’ You can’t tell them because you don’t know.”

More than 65 million Americans suffer from bunions — a painful foot condition that often worsens over time and can make walking, exercising, and even wearing shoes uncomfortable or limiting. For many, what begins as a mild nuisance gradually turns into persistent pain that affects daily life.
If you’ve been told bunions are something you simply must live with, advances in bunion surgery are changing that narrative. Today’s treatment options focus not only on relieving pain, but on correcting the underlying problem to provide lasting improvement.

“Are you telling me that you can be found not guilty in America, but still have to pay your attorney’s fees?”
That was the question a London barrister, Jerome Lynch, asked me on the first day of my externship with him in 1996. Until then, I hadn’t considered how peculiar this might seem, especially from an outsider’s perspective. In law school, the “American Rule”—the principle that each party pays their own legal fees—was mentioned only briefly. In an educational setting that values debate, this rule seemed to fly under the radar, simply accepted without question.
