(Tribune News Service) The administrator of the New Mexico State Veterans Home has been placed on administrative leave while the state investigates whether proper procedures were followed before COVID-19 swept through the state-run home and turned deadly over the past two months. Juliet Sullivan, administrator of the state s only nursing home for military veterans and their spouses, in Truth or Consequences, was placed on administrative leave Friday as a new leadership team deals with an outbreak of the coronavirus that has taken the lives of at least 21 residents.
KTI, a manufacturer of automatic splicers, turret rewinders and other web converting equipment, has completed assembly of the LS Series Automatic Lap Splicer for OEM Massman Automation’s end-customer.
Massman plans to run Kraft paper with special barrier properties and specifically chose the LS splicer to reduce waste on its Talon Supra machines. The Talon Supra Microwave Popcorn bag-making machine is a continuous motion machine that runs at 300 bags (or feet) per minute. If the machine were to stop it would create excessive waste of 3 to 30 bags. The LS Lap Splicer’s big roll dual unwind with automatic splice on the fly feature allows Massman continuous runs with very little waste. Most end-users are running the Talon Supra machines 24 hours per day, 7 days a week with multi-shift operations and only the occasional shut down for scheduled maintenance. Massman needed something continuous and reliable to supplement and improve these operations.

The Adena Warriors showed why they are going to be one of the favorites for the SVC boys basketball title chase this season with a 68-37 win at Southeastern to open conference play.
But the Warriors had a leg-up going into the game as the Panthers have six varsity players in quarantine due to COVID-19 contact tracing, forcing Southeastern to start three freshmen.
Adena took full advantage jumping to leads of 14-0, 20-2 and 34-4. It was 42-11 at halftime, but the Panthers showed more steady play in the third quarter, although still trailing by a margin of 57-24 after three points before the 68-37 final.
