Two locations in Madison distribute drugs to recovering heroin addicts: one on East Washington and the other on Ann Street. These clinics give out methadone and suboxone, two substances that work like opiates on the brain, binding to the same receptors as heroin and oxycontin.

No tickets, no problems
A shortage of magic in the movie theater has seemingly been sweeping Hollywood ever since the release of ""Love Actually"" in 2004. Instead of Christmas stories filled with wine, romance and candles, most movies that have been released during the holiday season in the past five years have been loaded with idiot slapstick comedy that involves has-been actors chasing each other around white suburban America in bathrobes. Movies like ""Love Actually"" and the original ""Santa Clause"" are rare gems in the bleak mid-winter of Oscar season, and they just don't come around often enough.

Looking back at the films of 2003, it's hard to believe just how many films have been released in one short year. It would be quite easy to wrap up the year with a \best of"" list that would probably include the two biggest box-office hits of the summer (""Finding Nemo"" and ""Pirates of the Caribbean""), but instead I want to touch on three films that I felt were surprisingly great and unappreciated by the general film audience.
Here are eight reasons why I strongly dislike Madison right now: the Chocolate Shoppe, Subway, Spex, Princess of India, that audio place that got smaller, Jamba Juice, the Birkenstock store and for the kicker, Badger Liquor. I dislike that all of these businesses got their windows smashed Saturday night.

The role and perception of women in Islam is a concept with multiple personalities and interpretations. The only truly accurate concept is dictated in the Quran, the word of God, as believed by Muslims, and the hadith, sayings of Prophet Muhammad. The abominable images and facts fed into Western, corporate media expose the gross mistreatment of women in so-called Islamic countries. An appalling aberration by the media is that they fail to distinctly state that the images of oppressions are the product of corrupted, patriarchal regimes and governments. This renders the uncritical consumers of American corporate media unaided in discerning fact from fiction.
