To-go margaritas come with several guidelines

Margaritas to-go sound great, but could they really be sold in the Village?  Co-owners of Cleo's Bourbon Bar, Ryan Clements and Chris Ellison, are planning to merge with Sir Nachos owner Emanuel Escamilla and open Three Amigos next month. The three entrepreneurs hope to sell mobile versions of their staple drink in sealed Ball jars.  Brandon Thomas, Indiana excise police public information officer, said many establishments sell carry out margaritas.

Ball State's former prison program helped 'rehabilitate people,' professor says

The first time Daniel Messel, the man accused of murdering an Indiana University student, was in prison, he received a Ball State degree through the university’s former prison program. Although Messel may be headed back to prison, research shows that receiving an education while in prison reduces the likelihood of an individual returning to lock up. Messel received an associate’s degree in general arts from Ball State while serving an eight-year sentence after pleading guilty to a charge of battery with a deadly weapon. Ball State used to offer instruction to prisoners at the Pendleton Correctional Facility, near Muncie.
