“There are still a few weeks left,” said the director general of Pemex about the start date of operations from the refinery Dos Bocas.

“Two mouths from a construction point of view, it is completely built, there are the 18 plants that make up the refinery. We are in the process of testing each and every one of the plants, but it is a process where it is tested first with air, then with nitrogen and then it is tested with hydrocarbons before being able to integrate them into the other plants, each and every one of the plants. Plants have to be tested in this way.
“Evidently, there are thousands of components, there is always a missing screw that was not fully tightened, there is always a missing piece (sic), all the tests are given to guarantee,” Romero explained.
He added that this month tests will begin at the diesel plant with an intermediate liquid from the Madero refinery, “something like a crude diesel with a lot of sulfur” to convert it into ultra-low sulfur diesel, but it will allow the facilities to be tested and begin already with the production of this hydrocarbon.
“The most important thing is that we are going to test this plant, it will be the first, in fact today we should already be starting with the first ultra-low sulfur barrels produced.
“In the coming weeks we are going to enter with regular gasoline and later with magna gasoline. We still have a few weeks left, today we are going to start the production of ultra sulfur garlic,” Romero noted.
In January, López Obrador assured that the oil installation would begin on February 28 with operations at full capacity; The complex was inaugurated on July 1, 2022.

Salvadorans were also seduced by Star Wars Day – Diario La Página
– 2024-05-06 01:07:08
May 4 is a special date for millions of “Star Wars” fans as World Star Wars Day, better known as Star Wars Day, is celebrated, so Salvadorans were no exception to this great event. that adds more followers every year.
On this occasion the point of attention was a shopping center in San Salvador, where an exhibition of spaceships, clothing, swords, robots, images of all the members of Star Wars, key chains and fortresses was set up, which were admired by those who attended. to that intergalactic date.
The Star Wars characters were seen this May 4 in the Puerta del Diablo Natural Park, in the district of Panchimalco, department of San Salvador, so that tourist center was transformed into a distant galaxy.
What we should know is since when has World Star Wars Day been celebrated and what is its origin?
It all boils down to the fact that the origin of this anniversary has nothing to do with dates related to the room. Rather, it was a news story published in the British newspaper ‘London Evening News’ on May 4, 1979.
The article claimed that members of the United Kingdom Conservative Party congratulated Margaret Thatcher on her newly appointed position as the country’s prime minister: “May the 4th Be With You, Maggie. Congratulations,” said the writing that gave rise to a play on words with ‘May the Force be with you’, an emblematic phrase in the saga. The new phrase, however, did not become popular until several years later.
It was not until 2011 when this day began to gain strength among followers of the saga. It was all thanks to the organization of the film festival this same day at the Toronto Underground Cinema. Without yet knowing why, the companies decided to take the opportunity to offer special discounts on all their ‘Star Wars’ products.
Movies related to Star Wars are the most followed worldwide in the entire history of cinema. It is about the saga with a huge legion that does not understand race, languages or origin. On this May 4, many fans will celebrate this special day in their own way and a multitude of events are organized.
Among the best known are the marathons or meetings with followers dressed as the most emblematic characters. We can also find stores and brands that rely on special offers, advertising slogans and a long list of winks.
Beyond the famous article about Margaret Thatcher in 1979, just a year later, in 1980, the president of the United States at the time, Ronald Reagan, was based on the character Grand Moff Tarkin to create a strategic defense initiative known as War of the galaxies. Although it was never carried out, the project served to pave the way for the strategic missile system that is still in force today.

The United Nations warns the warring parties in Sudan regarding Darfur
Sudan – The United Nations has warned the warring parties in Sudan of a serious risk of widespread famine and death in Darfur and elsewhere if they do not allow humanitarian aid into the western region.
Lenny Kinsley, regional spokeswoman for the United Nations World Food Program, said on Friday that at least 1.7 million people in Darfur were suffering from emergency levels of hunger in December, and the number is expected to be “much higher today.”
“Our calls for humanitarian aid to reach hot conflict areas in Sudan have never been more important,” Knolly added in a virtual UN press conference from Nairobi yesterday, Friday.
After Sudan descended into chaos in mid-April 2023, with fighting erupting between its army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces, the Rapid Support Forces took control of most parts of Darfur and besieged El Fasher, the only capital in the region that it does not control, and in which about 500 people took refuge. A thousand civilians.
Kinzli said WFP partners on the ground reported that the situation in El Fasher was “absolutely horrific” and that it was difficult for civilians wanting to flee the reported RSF bombing to leave.
She noted that the violence in El Fasher and surrounding North Darfur is exacerbating critical humanitarian needs in the entire Darfur region, where production of basic grain crops such as wheat and sorghum is 78 percent below the five-year average.
“Recent reports from our partners indicate that 20 children have died in recent weeks due to malnutrition” in a camp for displaced people in central Darfur, Kinzli said.
Kinzley called on the international community to “make a coordinated diplomatic effort to push the warring parties to provide guarantees of access and safety” for humanitarian workers and convoys.
In March, Sudanese authorities revoked a permit granted to the World Food Program to deliver aid from neighboring Chad to West Darfur and Central Darfur from the town of Adre, saying the crossing was being used to transfer weapons to the Rapid Support Forces.
Kinzli reported that restrictions imposed by the Sudanese authorities in Port Sudan also prevent the World Food Program from transporting aid through Adre.
Sudanese authorities agreed to deliver aid from the town of Tina to North Darfur, but Kinzli said the World Food Program could no longer use this route for security reasons because it leads directly to besieged El Fasher.
On Thursday, gunmen in South Darfur killed two International Committee of the Red Cross drivers and wounded three International Committee employees.
