Hello, my name Nadzieja Symanska. I work in a call center https://e-katalog.pl/, as a manager. The electronic catalog is a great resource to search for items online and to evaluate prices. It covers many product categories, including computers, electronics and home appliances and automotive products.
People are in love with online stores, as they can purchase all categories of goods they need all in one location. It's easy and saves time. It also lets you save money on shipping costs by only buying products from one place.
There's no need to pay for something you can get cheaper. And without leaving your home! Why settle for inferior quality products when you can purchase an expensive item at a reasonable price? Why settle for the cheapest option available at every turn when you can order something more original? This is the thing that one person realized when they decided to buy on the internet. There aren't the advantages of online shopping, such as a low price, a wide choice, and exclusivity, if you purchase from foreign sites.
Buying things at online stores isn't just convenient, but also lucrative. They are growing in popularity to confirm this. The advantages of visiting such a store a lot include the fact that there is no need to go to any other place, and shopping at the online store, as compared to a traditional supermarket, spends much less time. Even though the selection of counters on the internet is even greater but it's still a great location to shop. Whatever the time of day, or even what the weather like outside, these elements do not impact the chance to purchase anything.
Buyers can get the most competitive prices from one place, which means they don't need to open multiple sites. Suppliers can save time advertising managing an online store, staff, and shipping.
The quality of the products you buy depends entirely on you. You should carefully check the sellers ratings, their reviews and their work.

I am dealing with this in my Port ACL patch. The range used for
random (aren't they called anonymous as well?) port assignments
will be tunable, on a per-user basis if you like, and the range
need not be contiguous, so you could reserve 6000-6020 for X,
another range for IRC, etc.
You can search the archives for the string "PACL" to see my
original announcement, or just send me mail. If anyone plans to do
some work on this, then PLEASE contact me. My scheme might not be
the best one, so if anyone else has a better idea, I'd like to
integrate that into PACL. Plus, the sysctl interface for pacl is
sorta-close to done.
Can you post a copy of this patch when it nears completion? I'd like
to merge it into the current 2.1.x networking quickly after you are
ready with it, so this problem can be history.

The cult of San Cataldo is documented in the Lucchese hamlet of Santa Maria as far back as the Middle Ages: even in the fourteenth century there existed a confraternity dedicated to the saint and to the Nativity of Mary. Every year San Cataldo is solemnly celebrated on his day in the liturgical calendar, which is preceded by a triduum of preparations, eucharistic services, and a long procession at Vespers. It is without doubt the most deep-rooted festival in the part of the Lucchesia north of the river Serchio.

- Fashion Nova is selling a two-piece set that comes with an animal-print halter top and matching pants for $39.99.
- The included shirt also doubles as a face mask, as its neckline can extend above the mouth and nose.
- TikTok users have questioned the garment, and said they worry that they could smell their own sweat by wearing it.
- On Fashion Nova's website, however, the mask-shirt combo has received numerous glowing reviews.
- Visit Insider's homepage for more stories.
Fashion Nova has found a creative way to incorporate face masks into its ensembles.
The online fashion retailer is now selling a $39.99 set that comes with a blue, animal-print halter top and matching pants. The shirt also doubles as a face mask, with a neckline that can extend above the mouth and nose.
Though the set was originally sold in sizes small through extra large, the item is only available in extra small and small at the time of writing.
On TikTok, some people have questioned the multipurpose shirt — specifically, what would happen if you sweat while wearing it. Others said it reminded them of outfits worn by characters from the "Mortal Kombat" video-game series.
"Let's all just be 'Mortal Kombat' characters for Halloween," one person commented underneath a video about the set.
"Immediately no," another person wrote.
"They'll be smelling all their sweat," another TikTok user said.
On Fashion Nova's website, however, the garment has received numerous rave reviews.
"I was skeptical at first of this outfit but decided to give it a try," a reviewer wrote. "I'm glad I did. It fits really good and it isn't as see through as I thought it would be."
"This two-piece set is fireee baby — y'all need this for the summer," another person wrote.
The set's page on Fashion Nova's website does not list any information about how much protection the built-in mask can offer. However, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention currently recommends that people wear cloth face coverings in public spaces where keeping a distance of six feet from others is difficult.
As Insider's Anna Medaris Miller wrote, "medical masks or cloth face coverings, ideally with three layers, could be a ticket to controlling the coronavirus outbreak — if everyone wore them."
Representatives for Fashion Nova did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.

Boyz Will Be Boyz
October 31, 2022
In the hills of southwestern Virginia roams Tanner Keith.
Tanner Keith spent the early days of his youth doctoring sick cattle and cutting down Christmas trees. The ever present scar on his left thigh gives merit to his fear of chainsaws. Luckily after this incident, his family got out of the Christmas tree business and began team penning.
At the ripe age of twenty-years-old, Tanner left home to live with professional team penner, Brian Buckner, in Mississippi.
During his apprenticeship, Tanner and Brian traveled the country to give clinics, sell horses, and compete. Their life resembled that of a 90s rock band.
Tanner decided to blaze his own trail after two years with Brian. He returned home to Virginia where he bought a thirteen horse trailer and a cherry red Volvo semi. Eager to hit the road again, Tanner crammed the trailer full of high caliber horses and his then eighteen-years-old brother Connor to hit the road full time—marking the conception of Keith Boyz Cowhorses.
While there are countless stories of Tanner and Connor's adventures, I will only speak of those that I was in-person to witness. My first personal encounter with the Keith boyz involved tackle football in famous Will Rogers Coliseum in Fort Worth, Texas.
I witnessed two scrawny Virginians run circles around kids twice their size. Not only did they have exceptional speed, they also had the incomparable ability to bounce back without the slightest notion of pain.
Their football skills matched their horse selling tenacity. While Tanner tried to hustle his mom's horse to my brother Kody, we ended up bringing home a horse known nationwide as "The Cat Itchi Mare." Despite Itchi's quirks, she has stayed with our family for nearly a decade, becoming one of the highest-earning residents at the Lazy JWC Ranch. My brother's journey resembles that of Tanner.
Kody, now twenty-years-old, just bought a ten horse trailer. He hopes to also throw his eighteen-years-old sibling behind the wheel to beat the pavement, though she has plans of her own.

Trolley and Wedding Information
Trolleys came about through the need for mass transportation. Back in the old days there were long horse drawn carriages used to move large numbers of people. As technology progressed so did transportation. Trains, buses, cars and plains were developed. Trolleys were created back in the 1920's and were originally electric trolley cars that need electric lines to move from place to place. Now a days a trolley is a nastolgic icon of the past.

It's very standard to have doubts once you THINK you might have identified your own dream bridal gown and handed over your credit card to pay. Imagine if you dislike it after you get home? Imagine if later on when you are shopping you find something a great deal better?
Even though a high precentage of wedding brides are incredibly happy with their purchase there are still a small percentage which have second thoughts. Here are some tips to know if you do not like your custom-made wedding dress.
1) You do not truly feel comfortable with the configuration of the outfit. Did another person push the gown on you? If you truly feel uncomfortable today you may feel awkward on your big day. Do you really want to feel this way while waking down the isle, dancing at the wedding celebration or maybe traveling in your trolley in Heathcote NJ?
2) Do you feel it fits like a glove? You can almost not even curve over? Well try not to be tricked by a superb price and give up the wiggle space. There are plenty of activities you will need to perfom on your specific day for example dancing with your daddy, riding in a trolley, throwing the bouquets. In case you have any concerns consider using a size larger. This can ensure your capability to maneuver and revel in the day.
3) If it costs a great deal more than you anticipated you will not feel good within it. Keep in mind there will always be a choice in your price range. Perform a little searching around in Heathcote NJ and you will probably see dresses are available in all selling prices. Just like your transportation options you will need to shop for the best vehicle and also price. A lot of wedding receptions these days will also be thinking about trolley rentals in Heathcote NJ to aid with transferring friends from location to location.

Natural gas, a Noble Energy source of 21st century would contribute significantly to the total energy mix in coming future. Its transformation into LNG has made it possible to transport to distant places in various countries where the requirement is high. Therefore, natural gas which is also less GHG-emitting compared to other fossil fuels, would play the role of transition fuel in decarbonatisation and development of renewable energy. Therefore, the gas markets have shifted from a traditional model of a limited number of buyers and suppliers to an accelerated growth market. However, Exploration and production (E&P) is becoming challenging and cost-intensive as easy and big discoveries are either discovered or difficult to find. Most of gas fields yet to be discovered may be either small/contaminated or in hostile environments like deep/ultra-deepwater and high-temperature high-pressure (HPHT). Exploration is vital for E&P Company's sustainability to supply gas and security of supply i.e., LNG for power generation at competitive development cost and selling prices.
Thus, the growth of the gas sector brings in three types of challenges: Business strategies, technology, and project execution. New projects and technology development are taking place at an accelerated pace for the monetisation of contaminated and isolated stranded gas fields. These efforts open a wide scope for innovative and collaborative technologies and project execution to be brought forward with operators to meet the challenges set out by business strategies. These innovations can be implemented with a structured approach towards balancing cost, quality, reliability, safety, and sustainability in the long term.
This panel session will focus on effective strategy for exploration, Contaminated management liked development, market development, demand, game-changing technologies, and approaches, as well as lessons learned from the gas sector to capture the growth potential in an increasingly competitive market.
- Bringing prudence in capital-intensive exploration strategy, seismic acquisitions, and geohazard, understanding early uncertainty and risks.
- Expediting decision-making for development investment.
- Strategies for monetisation of stranded and contaminated gas fields in conjunction with CCUS.
- Sustaining Gas supply especially through LNG.
- Impact on the climate from greenhouse gas removal technologies for efficient contaminants management.
- Technological challenges in offshore for energy efficiency and reducing GHG facilities and enhancing renewal energy for operation.
Today, the effects of global climate change have become more and more apparent. Whilst the oil and gas industry continue to play an important role in delivering energy to fulfill basic needs as well as industrial development, the industry is also in a crucial position to minimise any impacts to the environment and provide sustainable energy solutions.
This session will focus on sustainable solutions in gas development. The workshop provides an open venue for experts and operators to share their initiatives, current practices, key successes, and outcomes from lessons learned. This workshop will also act as a platform for professionals within and across the energy industries to discuss and connect, with the aim to reach our common goal, mitigate global climate change.
The workshop will aim to discuss and/or address:

As a quarter of gas reserves are still undeveloped and stranded due to regulations and societal environmental demand, it is imperative to improve well design and operations to overturn the economics for natural gas field development while preparing for the energy transition in meeting the net-zero target by 2050.
This session will discuss innovative well completion design and operations that improve safety, cost, and efficiency. This includes a paradigm shift in completion design/strategy for gas wells that is fit-for-purpose to improve well economics, enhancement of metallurgy and strategy selection to manage high contaminants, and application of new technology and digitalisation that reduces the operating cost and improves efficiency. This session will also discuss well design in terms of converting existing wells to monetise gas caps through Gas Cap Blowdown (GCBD) and CCUS projects implementation.
Apart from knowledge sharing on net-zero initiatives and relevant new technologies in preparation for energy transition and future requirements for GHG management, the session will also gather lessons learnt from various projects and available technologies to overcome challenges related to gas wells development that will overturn the economics in gas field development projects.

Thursday, December 08
Full collaboration between the host government, resource owners, operators, and partners is always important to ensure holistic reservoir development, management, and operations of natural gas resources in meeting the ever-growing energy demand. For the security of gas supply, reservoir development strategy is key to warrant optimum recovery of gas resources through effective exploration and appraisal programs. Innovative approaches and well-established technologies at their optimum costs are adopted for the development of the assets and maintaining the operational uptime throughout their production life.
This session aims to focus on the collaboration between Subsurface and Surface parties in integrating reservoir management and facilities' operational life for the proper depletion of hydrocarbon fields without leaving significant remaining resources untapped. This workshop will also provide opportunities for professionals to share their expertise and current best practices in securing the gas supply either through gas hub development, sand and impurities management, sweet spot evaluation for categorizing reservoir quality, behind casing opportunity (BCO) technology, PE/IWR (production enhancement/idle well reactivation) methods and sustainability of Maintenance and Reliability (M&R) uptime.
Discussion Leaders:
- Downhole Determining Sand Flow Intervals, Lenar Sungatullin, TGT Diagnostics
- Value Generation from Condensate Production Optimisation: A Data Analytics Case Study in East Malaysia Gas Field, Aqil Muhammad Yusof and Victor Hugo Hamdan Bagnon, PETRONAS Carigali Sdn. Bhd.

- Manuscript Managing Mercury Risks with Unknown Data, Syed Ahmad Firdaus Syed Abdul Halim and Syed Zaidi, Mubadala Energy
Many organisations across the oil and gas business had been taking major steps toward digital transformation by utilising digital technologies to enhance operational efficiencies in all aspects of the end-to-end value chains including but not limited to exploration, production, cost, safety, and people management
Many tools and application were already developed either internally or by business partners to serve these purposes.
This session aims to encourage sharing some of the great initiatives with advanced digital technologies being adopted in natural gas management and development focusing on E&P big data analytics and machine learning for predictive capabilities in enhancing overall system performances & sustainability. These initiatives include:
• Real-time remote operations and connected workers
• Implementation of digital twins of onshore/offshore facilities
• Tools used to improve the development of gas reservoirs
• Management of Integrated Gas Production Systems at the operation phase
• Reservoir Management
• Improvement to the Drilling and well services efficiency
• Improvement to the management of complicated logistics
• Wells and Asset Integrity
• Safety and environmental aspects
Discussion Leaders:
- A Successful Case of PTTEP Digital Transformation in the Gulf of Thailand Assets, Condensate Stabilisation Real-Time Optimisation, Supha-Kitti Dhadachaipathomphong, PTTEP
- Efficient Fault Interpretation using Machine Learning Technique in Jasmine Field, Gulf of Thailand, Sherry Pambayuning, Mubadala Energy

- A Novel Approach using Pulsed Neutron Machine Learning Techniques to Determine Porosity and Lithology for Complex Carbonate Reservoirs, Mahmoud Saada, Halliburton
With mature oil and gas-producing assets approaching late-life phase, exploitation of gas-cap blowdown opportunity and effective late-life facilities management is critical for optimising field recovery and continued safe and profitable operation. Collaboration between subsurface and surface parties in integrating the facilities' operational life will be important to properly deplete hydrocarbon fields without leaving significant remaining resources untapped.
Understanding the key considerations and trade-off value for GBD execution and asset life opportunities requires in-depth knowledge of the condition of the existing systems (subsurface and surface) and how functional requirements change over time.
This session will cover:
Early consideration for GBD exploitation of existing fields.
- Methodology and triggers for enabling GBD opportunity.
- Cost-effective and feasible development plan.
Late-life and depleted fields facilities management.
- Re-locate/re-use of the facilities

Aviation & Mass Transit Accidents Law
Is an Airline Responsible for an Accident Caused by a Third Party?
Airlines can be responsible for aviation accidents even when caused by a third party.
For example, an air traffic controller may improperly guide planes inside an airport during takeoff, landing, and air travel. A pilot might fail to maneuver the airplane correctly, and crew members inside the airplane might forget to perform pre-flight safety or seatbelt demonstrations. All these third parties can create responsibility for an airline.
Why should airlines be held responsible for the mistakes of others? Because third parties are often acting on the airline's behalf. If the airline did not react reasonably under the circumstances to prevent an accident caused by third parties, you can hold that airline responsible in court.
If you've been involved in an airplane accident, consult with an aviation accident attorney to see if you have a case.
Responsibility Created Under International Law
The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) is a United Nations agency supporting safe air travel globally. In 1999, the org adopted the Montreal Convention, creating rules for the safety of airline passengers.
The Montreal Convention updates the Warsaw Convention, an earlier international law that regulates passenger safety. Under the Montreal Convention, airlines are strictly liable for up to around $175,000 in damages caused to passengers; beyond this limit, an air carrier can avoid further liability if it can prove:
- The airline acted prudently (not negligently) under the circumstances, or
- The damages were caused only by a third party's negligence.
The regulation requires all airlines to carry liability insurance. Any airline passenger (or their surviving family members and loved ones) can sue air carriers wherever in America they live, even if the injured passenger was on an international flight. Compensation is available for:
- Wrongful death.
- Personal injuries.
- Mental and emotional injuries, so long as they are connected with physical injuries caused by the accident.
Third Party Liability Civil Law
As a civil claimant who wants to hold an airline responsible for an accident caused by a third party, you must show that the airline is responsible for one or more of the following legal theories:
- Strict liability.
- Negligence.
- Wrongful death.
Strict Liability
To hold the airline responsible under strict liability, you must show that:
- You were injured.
- The airline's actions caused the injury.
Airlines can practice caution and still be found liable for causing an accident. For example, the airline may be responsible if they hired a technician who failed to spot a mechanical error in the airplane. Even though the airline and the technician may have worked to find issues with the airplane, the airline will still be responsible for unforeseeable mechanical accidents resulting in injury.
On the other hand, to hold the airline responsible under negligence, you must prove the following:
- The airline had a duty to ensure your safety as their airline passenger.
- The airline breached (violated) its duty, for instance, by poor hiring practices that resulted in pilot error.
- The airline's failure to prevent pilot error caused the accident and personal injuries to you.
- You incurred damages in the form of pain and suffering and medical expenses.
Wrongful Death
In negligence cases involving death, it is common for the family or surviving loved ones to sue for wrongful death. To sue the airline for wrongful death, you must prove the following:
- The airline acted negligently.
- The airline's negligence caused the accident and injuries that killed a passenger.
- The death resulted in losses to you—for example, loss of income or companionship of your loved one.
An Aviation Accident Attorney Can Help
If an airline accident caused injuries to you or death or injury to your family member, you'll need recourse. You're likely confused, tired, and afraid of dealing with medical bills, time lost from work, pain and suffering, and the uncertainty of the future.
In these circumstances, you'll need a specialized personal injury attorney. A local aviation accident lawyer can help you obtain money. They can negotiate with insurance companies, file your case in court, and help you receive compensation for injuries.

I have some exciting news!!
Tim and I bought our first home and we couldn't be more excited to start our lives here!
One of the perks of purchasing a home is being able to decorate, paint, and renovate however you'd like! There's also handling the maintenance of the home, yard, and appliances – which we have quickly come to understand lol
We bought our home in April and spent the month making it our own! Packing, moving, and unpacking our boxes in just a short amount of time. We painted our master bedroom, had furniture delivered, and then hosted Mother's Day in mid-May and then a Father's Day lunch in June! You can say it's been a busy few months here. 🙂
I love that we've made this house a home.
We still have more work to do; however, I wanted to share a couple of snapshots of our home so far 🙂
We plan on redoing our main level bathroom and entryway closet soon. 🙂
Thanks for reading!

Chicago employees who take time off to get the coronavirus vaccine would be shielded from retaliation — and employers who require it must compensate workers for up to two hours per dose — under a mayoral protection plan proposed Wednesday.
During the early days of the pandemic, the City Council moved to protect employees from retaliation for absences tied to the coronavirus.
The earlier anti-retaliation ordinance prevented employers from firing, suspending, transferring or reducing the pay of workers who stay home because they have COVID-19 symptoms, have been exposed to someone who has tested positive for the virus, or their business is deemed nonessential by statewide stay-at-home order.
At Wednesday's City Council meeting, Mayor Lori Lightfoot introduced a new anti-retaliation ordinance — this time aimed at employers who dare to penalize workers for taking time off to get vaccinated against the coronavirus.
The new ordinance would prohibit Chicago employers from taking "any adverse action — including termination demotion, layoff or punitive schedule changes" — against employees who take time off to get vaccinated.
If an employee has paid sick leave or time accrued, employers would be required to let them use that time to get vaccinated. And if the employer makes it a requirement for workers to get the coronavirus vaccine, employees must be compensated for the time taken "if it is during a shift, up to two hours per dose."
Lightfoot moved to broaden the employee protection umbrella as the city prepares to move Monday into Phase 1c of its vaccine distribution plan, which will make all essential workers eligible for the vaccine.
At a City Hall news conference after the council meeting, Lightfoot noted essential workers have "kept this city running" throughout the pandemic. They are primarily "Black and Brown women of color," the mayor said.
"For those who are following the public health guidance, there should be no action by an employer that retaliates or otherwise impinges upon their rights of work. Whether it's staying home because they are sick, abiding by other social distancing and masking requirements or taking time to get a necessary, life-saving vaccine. We will protect those workers," the mayor said.
"Their workplaces should be the last place that they should face any barriers to stepping up and doing their part to protect Chicago by getting the life-saving vaccine."
Business Affairs and Consumer Protection Commissioner Rosa Escareno said the vast majority of Chicago employers are "doing the right thing," protecting their employees and keeping them safe. Those who don't will face fines ranging from $1,000 to $5,000.
"An employer cannot fire, demote, implement punitive schedule changes or take any adverse actions against an employee for taking time off to receive the vaccine...If an employee has accrued paid sick time, they are guaranteed the ability to use that time to get the vaccine," Escareno said.
"And finally, if an employer requires that their workers be vaccinated ... the employer must compensate its employees for the time it takes to receive the vaccine if it during work hours."
In other action at Wednesday's council meeting:
• Ald. Brendan Reilly (42nd) introduced a zoning change to pave the way for construction of a giant high-rise with more than two million square feet of space at the site now occupied by the Thompson Center, across the street from City Hall.
Reilly got the ball rolling at the behest of Gov. J.B. Pritzker, whose budget has long counted on unloading the Thompson Center.
"Restoring the Thompson Center's previous zoning designation will make the property more attractive to potential buyers, generating significant revenue for both the city and state—a win-win," the governor's office said in a statement.
"We look forward to the next steps in this process and thank Alderman Reilly for his commitment to responsibly using this site."
Thompson Center employees are expected to make the move to a newly-purchased state building at 555 W. Monroe, where annual operating costs are expected to be reduced by $17 million.
• After a pair of lengthy debates, the City Council also approved Lightfoot's watered down air pollution ordinance and agreed to penalize developers who tear down single-family homes or multi-unit buildings in Pilsen and in neighborhoods along the 606 Trail.
The pilot plan would impose a $15,000 surcharge for demolishing a "detached house, townhouse or two-flat" and a $5,000-per-unit fee for tearing down "multi-unit residential buildings."
• And with a $1.8 billion avalanche of federal aid on the way, aldermen signed off on Lightfoot's plan to spend or reallocate $108.5 million in relief money already delivered to the city.
Ald. Rossana Rodriguez Sanchez (33rd) sought and received assurances that none of the $60 million earmarked for "operations, cleaning, sanitization, janitorial services, combating the spread of pathogens and debt service payments" at O'Hare Airport and the $16.5 million for the same at Midway would be used to pay for police officers assigned to either airport.

Psychogenic nonepileptic seizure (PNES) involves attacks that resemble epilepsy-related seizures that are due to underlying psychological distress, not abnormal electrical activity in your brain. PNES is treatable with psychotherapy (talk therapy).
Psychogenic nonepileptic seizure (PNES) involves attacks that resemble epilepsy-related seizures in symptoms and signs, but abnormal electrical activity in your brain doesn't cause them. Instead, the seizures are a physical reaction to underlying psychological distress.
The psychiatric diagnosis for PNES is conversion disorder, as a mental stress is being converted into a physical symptom. Conversion disorder is also known as functional neurological symptom disorder. Many people with PNES have experienced trauma.
People who have PNES aren't faking the seizures. They have no conscious or voluntary control over them.
Many people with PNES first receive a misdiagnosis of epilepsy. It's also possible for someone to have both PNES and epilepsy-related seizures. This happens in about 10% to 15% of cases.
Other names for this condition include:
Cleveland Clinic is a non-profit academic medical center. Advertising on our site helps support our mission. We do not endorse non-Cleveland Clinic products or services. Policy
PNES most commonly begins in young adulthood, but it can start at any age. PNES is more likely to affect women and people assigned female at birth (AFAB) than men and people assigned male at birth (AMAB).
Factors that may increase your risk of developing PNES include:
PNES is also more prevalent in the veteran population than in the civilian population due to higher trauma exposure in veterans.
Researchers aren't sure how common PNES is. But 20% to 40% of people who see epilepsy specialists for intractable (untreatable) seizures receive a diagnosis of PNES rather than epilepsy.
The main symptom of PNES is seizure-like attacks. These attacks can vary from person to person in what they look like and how often they happen. They typically look just like epilepsy-related seizures, but they're seizures triggered by emotional stress.
Some people with PNES may look like they're experiencing generalized convulsions similar to tonic-clonic seizures with full-body spasms or shaking. Others may have twitching or jerking in their limbs. In some, PNES may mimic absence seizures (a brief lapse in awareness) or drop attacks (syncope-like episodes). PNES episodes can look like any of the various types of epilepsy-related seizures.
While healthcare providers can't determine if someone is having a PNES attack or an epilepsy-related seizure based on observation alone, seizure symptoms that highly suggest PNES include:
As PNES is associated with psychiatric conditions, people with PNES often have co-occurring psychiatric symptoms or diagnoses, such as a depressive mood or panic attacks.
Researchers think the symptoms of PNES are defense mechanisms that develop in response to underlying psychological distress. Some may be distressed because of unresolved or untreated psychiatric conditions.
Common psychiatric conditions that co-occur with PNES include:
Many people with PNES meet the criteria for conversion disorder (also known as functional neurological symptom disorder). Conversion disorder is a mental health condition that manifests as a physical symptom. The symptoms happen because your brain "converts" the effects of a mental health issue into disruptions of your brain or nervous system.
Some physical conditions such as chronic pain or fibromyalgia may put you at risk for PNES.
A history of childhood trauma, such as sexual or physical abuse, is a known risk factor for the development of PNES. In addition, other major stressors in adulthood, such as complex grief or relationship trauma, can put you at risk for PNES.
It can be difficult for healthcare providers to tell the difference between PNES and epilepsy-related seizures based on observation alone. This is because no one seizure sign is specific to PNES.
The most reliable way for providers to diagnose PNES is by recording a seizure with video EEG (electroencephalogram). An EEG measures and records your brain's electrical signals. During an EEG, a technician places small metal disks (electrodes) on your scalp. The electrodes attach to a machine that gives your healthcare provider information about your brain's activity.
If you have PNES, the video EEG will show normal electrical brain activity during the seizure.
The main treatment for PNES involves diagnosing and treating the underlying psychiatric symptoms contributing to the PNES as well as addressing the PNES symptoms directly. Antiseizure medications don't help treat PNES.
The go-to therapy for PNES is psychotherapy (talk therapy). Psychotherapy involves talking with a mental health professional, such as a psychologist, about situations that cause emotional distress. Your therapist can help you identify and change unhealthy emotions, thoughts and behaviors to cope with stressful events more effectively.
Studies show that cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a type of psychotherapy, is most effective in treating PNES or conversion disorder. If possible, it may be beneficial to seek mental health professionals who have experience with CBT and PNES.
PNES-specific therapies often focus on:
Treating co-existing psychiatric conditions is an important part of treating PNES. Treatment varies depending on the type of underlying condition, but, generally, psychotherapy and medications are recommended.
For example, prolonged exposure therapy and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR therapy) can help people with PTSD. CBT-based therapies such as dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) can be effective for people with personality disorders. These additional therapies can occur during or after the PNES treatment.
Your healthcare provider may prescribe medications, such as antidepressants, to help treat the underlying psychiatric condition.
PNES generally isn't preventable. But seeking help as soon as PNES or other mental health symptoms appear can help you manage the symptoms and decrease the disruptions to your life.
Without proper diagnosis and treatment, PNES is associated with emotional distress, poor quality of life and high rates of unemployment and disability. It's also associated with higher mortality rates than in the general population. On the other hand, after a clear communication of the PNES diagnosis and education by the medical team, some people with PNES no longer experience seizures.
But for most people, psychotherapy can help with symptoms of PNES. Studies show that after 12 sessions of cognitive behavioral therapy, about half of the participants no longer had seizures after the course of the sessions.
If you've received a diagnosis of PNES, it's important to seek treatment to address the diagnosis and treat underlying mental health conditions.
If you're experiencing thoughts of self-harm or suicide, call 911 or 988 or go to the nearest emergency room. If you're experiencing new seizure symptoms, it's important to go to the emergency room.
A note from Cleveland Clinic
Learning that psychological distress and trauma are the cause of your seizures can be confusing and upsetting. Know that you're not alone. A mental health professional can help you understand PNES in a judgment-free environment. Together, you can come up with a therapy plan to help reduce PNES symptoms and treat any underlying mental health conditions.

Background: The management of chronic pulmonary aspergillosis remains a challenge for thoracic and reconstructive surgeons. Different management options have been proposed with no consensus regarding the best treatment modality. The goal of this study is to report our experience with the use of intrathoracic muscle flaps for the management of pulmonary aspergillosis. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed all patients who underwent intrathoracic muscle flap transposition for the management of pulmonary aspergillosis between 1990 and 2010. Demographics, surgical characteristics, and treatment outcomes were collected and analyzed. Results: A total of 39 patients who underwent 48 muscle flaps were identified. The majority were classified as ASA 3 (n=30, 77%) or ASA 4 (n=8, 21%). Serratus anterior was the most common flap used (n=34), followed by latissimus dorsi (n=6) and pectoralis major (n=5). Flap loss was encountered in three (8%) patients (2 partial, 1 total). Bronchopleural fistula and empyema comprised the two most common intrathoracic complications (26%, 29% respectively). Median follow-up was 33 months (range, 0–216). Successful treatment was achieved in 77% of patients, while operative mortality was 23%. Conclusion: The use of intrathoracic muscle flaps can be a helpful adjunct to surgical resection in the treatment of chronic pulmonary aspergillosis with low rates of flap loss.

Boris Johnson 'unreservedly condemns' Donald Trump for 'encouraging people to behave in the disgraceful way that they did' when US president's supporters stormed US Capitol
- The PM said tonight Donald Trump was 'completely wrong' to encourage people
- Mr Johnson said he Trump's actions were wrong after the events in the US capital
- The PM's comments came after Facebook blocked President Trump 'indefinitely'
- Joe Biden was confirmed as president-elect despite the shocking violent scenes
Boris Johnson has 'unreservedly condemned' Donald Trump for 'encouraging people to behave in the disgraceful way they did' in Washington DC yesterday.
The PM, who has enjoyed a warm relationship with the President, said his actions were wrong after the shocking events in the US capital.
The comments came after Facebook blocked Mr Trump 'indefinitely and for at least the next two weeks' following the rioting.
Four people died at the protests – Ashli Babbitt, 35, shot by Capitol Police, and three others who passed away in 'medical emergencies'.
Joe Biden was confirmed as the president-elect despite the violent scenes as a pro-Trump mob stormed the Capitol.
The PM told a Downing Street press conference: 'All my life America has stood for some very important things – an idea of freedom and an idea of democracy'

Mr Johnson, who was born in the US, told a Downing Street press conference: 'All my life, America has stood for some very important things – an idea of freedom and an idea of democracy.'
In response to a question about Mr Trump's responsibility for the scenes in Washington, the PM said: 'Insofar as he encouraged people to storm the Capitol and insofar as the president consistently has cast doubt on the outcome of a free and fair election I believe that that was completely wrong.
'I think what President Trump has been saying about that has been completely wrong.
'I unreservedly condemn encouraging people to behave in the disgraceful way that they did in the Capitol.
'And all I can say is I'm very pleased that the president-elect has now been duly confirmed in office and that democracy has prevailed.'
In an extraordinary post, Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg accused Trump of using the platform 'to incite violent insurrection against a democratically elected government'.
The decision, which was announced in a blog post by Zuckerberg on Thursday, will likely put pressure on Twitter, Trump's favorite social media platform, to do the same.
Zuckerberg said the president used his Facebook page 'to condone rather than condemn the actions of his supporters at the Capitol building'.
He said allowing him to freely post in the final 13 days of his term would pose too great a risk.
'The shocking events of the last 24 hours clearly demonstrate that President Donald Trump intends to use his remaining time in office to undermine the peaceful and lawful transition of power to his elected successor, Joe Biden,' Zuckerberg wrote.
DailyMail.com has sought comment from the White House.
Twitter suspended Trump's account for 12 hours on Wednesday and for the first time deleted his tweets after he praised the mob who stormed Congress and said he 'loved' them.
His Twitter account is set to come back online on Thursday.

Four people died on Wednesday after a mob of Trump supporters stormed the barricades and breached the US Capitol building in Washington, DC, as a joint session of Congress convened to certify President-elect Joe Biden's victory
Trump was told by Twitter that he could continue to use his personal Twitter account only if he deleted three controversial posts about the Capitol Hill violence.
The president reportedly complied and will thus regain use of his account, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Snapchat blocked Trump on Wednesday morning, before he filmed the video. The platform said their locking of his account was indefinite.
DailyMail.com has reached out to Twitter seeking comment on whether it intends to follow Facebook's lead.
It also emerged Thursday that YouTube, which is owned by Google, has banned all videos containing 'Content that advances false claims that widespread fraud, errors, or glitches changed the outcome of any past U.S. presidential election'.
In the 13 days left in his presidency, Trump will not be able to communicate to his more than 35.2 million followers on Facebook.
The president will also be blocked from his 24.6 million followers on Instagram, a Facebook-owned property.
'His decision to use his platform to condone rather than condemn the actions of his supporters at the Capitol building has rightly disturbed people in the US and around the world,' the statement by Zuckerberg read.
'We removed these statements yesterday because we judged that their effect – and likely their intent – would be to provoke further violence.
'Following the certification of the election results by Congress, the priority for the whole country must now be to ensure that the remaining 13 days and the days after inauguration pass peacefully and in accordance with established democratic norms.
'Over the last several years, we have allowed President Trump to use our platform consistent with our own rules, at times removing content or labeling his posts when they violate our policies.
In the 13 days left in his presidency, Trump will not be able to communicate to his more than 35.2 million followers on Facebook
'We did this because we believe that the public has a right to the broadest possible access to political speech, even controversial speech.
'But the current context is now fundamentally different, involving use of our platform to incite violent insurrection against a democratically elected government.'
Zuckerberg concluded: 'We believe the risks of allowing the President to continue to use our service during this period are simply too great.
'Therefore, we are extending the block we have placed on his Facebook and Instagram accounts indefinitely and for at least the next two weeks until the peaceful transition of power is complete.'
Zuckerberg's relationship with Trump has seen its ups and downs.
The Facebook chief has been fiercely criticized by both his own employees as well as wide swaths of the public for not cracking down harder on the president's most controversial posts.
In September 2019, Trump posted a photo of him shaking hands with Zuckerberg during a meeting in the Oval Office.
'Nice meeting with Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook in the Oval Office today,' the president wrote at the time.

Zuckerberg and Trump had dinner at the White House in the fall of 2019. The two men were joined by billionaire tech investor Peter Thiel.
Thiel, one of Trump's earliest supporters, was also one of Facebook's initial investors. He remains a member of the company's board of directors.
Zuckerberg met with Trump and other Republican lawmakers as well as prominent conservative commentators in recent years in an effort to ease censorship concerns.
Critics of Facebook have accused Zuckerberg of currying favor with Trump in order to head off any possible regulatory action by the federal government as it relates to the company's business practices.
Facebook and other tech giants like Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and Apple have been accused by lawmakers on both sides of the aisle as well as consumer advocates of wielding too much power.
Last month, the Trump administration and 48 states and districts sued Facebook, accusing it of abusing its market power in social networking to crush smaller competitors.
The FTC fined Facebook $5billion in 2019 for privacy violations and instituted new oversight and restrictions on its business.
The fine was the largest the agency has ever levied on a tech company, although it had no visible impact on Facebook's business.
Facebook is the world's biggest social network with 2.7 billion users and a company with a market value of nearly $800billion whose CEO, Zuckerberg, is the world's fifth-richest individual and the most public face of Big Tech swagger.
The actions by Zuckerberg's company as well as other social media platforms in limiting Trump for the final 13 days of his presidency is likely to once again fuel suspicions of an anti-conservative bias among the large tech firms.
Trump's social media posts and videos in the aftermath of the violence at the US Capitol on Wednesday were slammed for their apparent mixed messaging as the president declined to condemn the mob that breached the congressional campus.
One of the deleted tweets read: 'These are the things and events that happen when a sacred landslide election victory is so unceremoniously & viciously stripped away from great patriots who have been badly & unfairly treated for so long. Go home with love & in peace. Remember this day forever!'
Donald Trump finally addressed his mob of supporters in a video Wednesday where he continued to claim the 'election was stolen'
In the deleted video, he poured more fuel on the fire, claiming the election was 'stolen' and telling the rioters that he 'loved' them.
Facebook also barred its employees from discussing the Capitol Hill rioting on internal message boards, where tech company workers were demanding the president be permanently banned from the site.
In his video, Trump told rioting supporters: 'I know your pain. I know you're hurt. We had an election that was stolen from us.
'It was a landslide election, and everyone knows it, especially the other side, but you have to go home now. We have to have peace. We have to have law and order. We have to respect our great people in law and order. We don't want anybody hurt.'
Trump said it was 'a very tough period of time,' and emphasized his own personal loss.
'There's never been a time like this where such a thing happened, where they could take it away from all of us, from me, from you, from our country.
'This was a fraudulent election, but we can't play into the hands of these people. We have to have peace. So go home.
'We love you. You're very special. You've seen what happens. You see the way others are treated that are so bad and so evil. I know how you feel. But go home and go home at peace.'
In a shocking tweet, Donald Trump sent mixed messaged Wednesday regarding the anarchy in Washington, saying 'Remember this day forever!' and calling the rioters 'great patriots'
In the third tweet deleted by Twitter, Trump attacked Mike Pence for lacking 'courage'
The third deleted tweet, posted several hours before the others, attacked Mike Pence for failing to stop the certification of Joe Biden's win.
'Mike Pence didn't have the courage to do what should have been done to protect our Country and our Constitution, giving States a chance to certify a corrected set of facts, not the fraudulent or inaccurate ones which they were asked to previously certify,' he tweeted.
'USA demands the truth!'
The video and tweets were removed on Wednesday night.
Twitter showed an image saying: 'This tweet is no longer available', and linked back to their page explaining their rational for blocking or putting warnings on tweets.

Twitter said it had removed the tweets for violating their 'Civic Integrity policy'.
'As a result of the unprecedented and ongoing violent situation in Washington, D.C., we have required the removal of three @realDonaldTrump Tweets that were posted earlier today for repeated and severe violations of our Civic Integrity policy,' the social media company said.
'This means that the account of @realDonaldTrump will be locked for 12 hours following the removal of these Tweets. If the Tweets are not removed, the account will remain locked.'
A Facebook spokesman said: 'We've assessed two policy violations against President Trump's Page which will result in a 24-hour feature block, meaning he will lose the ability to post on the platform during that time.'
Adam Mosseri, head of Instagram, said: 'We are locking President Trump's Instagram account for 24 hours as well.'
Andy Stone, another Facebook spokesman, earlier told CNN Business: 'The violent protests in the Capitol today are a disgrace.'
He added: 'We prohibit incitement and calls for violence on our platform. We are actively reviewing and removing any content that breaks these rules.'
Farshad Shadloo, YouTube spokesperson, said in an email to Insider: 'We removed a video posted this afternoon to Donald Trump's channel that violated our policies regarding content that alleges widespread fraud or errors changed the outcome of the 2020 U.S.
'We do allow copies of this video if uploaded with additional context and sufficient educational, documentary, scientific, or artistic (EDSA) value.'
And Rachel Racusen told The Information that Trump's Snapchat account was also locked.
'We can confirm that earlier today we locked President Trump's Snapchat account,' she said in a statement.

He will not be able to share new content until Snap decides to lift the restriction, she said, noting that his account was locked on Wednesday before he posted the video about the 'stolen' election.
Twitter, Facebook and YouTube have previously labeled content posted by the president with warnings over the last year, in particular his claims about election fraud and COVID-19.
Throughout the 2020 presidential election, the platforms placed labels on dozens of Trump's tweets that made false or misleading claims about voter fraud.
However, this appears to be the first time Twitter flagged a tweet as posing 'a risk of violence.'
Amid the violence, Facebook employees were surprised to see that the company froze at least three chat threads on the internal Workplace messaging network, according to BuzzFeed News.
Some of the employees at the Menlo Park, California-based social network expressed anger at Trump for the violence and discussed the next steps that the company needs to take, including removal of his account.
'Donald Trump has directly incited a terror attack on Capitol Hill,' one Facebook employee wrote in a chat that was later frozen.
'We need to take down his account right now. This is not a moment for half measures.'
The employees received no explanation as to why the chat threads were frozen. DailyMail.com has reached out to Facebook for comment.
The internal discontent at Facebook reflects wider outrage at the tech giant as well as its competitors who are being urged to impose a total ban on Trump.
During the Trump presidency, Facebook employees have complained about what they perceived as CEO Mark Zuckerberg's hands-off approach.
In June, employees were outraged over Zuckerberg's refusal to remove a post in which the president spoke of 'looting and shooting' during the protesting that erupted in the wake of the police-involved death of George Floyd in Minneapolis.
On May 29, as riots engulfed Minneapolis and unrest spread to other parts of the country, the president took to social media and wrote: 'I can't stand back & watch this happen to a great American City, Minneapolis. A total lack of leadership.
'Either the very weak Radical Left Mayor, Jacob Frey, get his act together and bring the City under control, or I will send in the National Guard & get the job done right.
'These THUGS are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd, and I won't let that happen.
'Just spoke to Governor Tim Walz and told him that the Military is with him all the way.
'Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts.'
Twitter has banned the president from its platform for 12 hours
Facebook and Instagram have banned Trump for 24 hours from their platforms
'Thank you!'
Trump's tweet was slapped with a disclaimer by Twitter, which flagged the president for violating the company's rules about glorifying violence.
The phrase 'when the looting starts, the shooting starts' was made famous by Walter Headley, Miami's chief of police who was known to be a racist and who used it when describing attempts to put down race riots in the late 1960s.
Trump told reporters that he was unaware of the racially charged history of the phrase.
In trying to clarify, the president later tweeted: 'Looting leads to shooting, and that's why a man was shot and killed in Minneapolis on Wednesday night – or look at what just happened in Louisville with 7 people shot.
'I don't want this to happen, and that's what the expression put out last night means….
'It was spoken as a fact, not as a statement.
'It's very simple, nobody should have any problem with this other than the haters, and those looking to cause trouble on social media.
'Honor the memory of George Floyd!'
Unlike Facebook, Twitter also put a disclaimer on another tweet by Trump – this one about his claim that vote-by-mail initiatives are susceptible to voter fraud.
In response, Trump signed an executive order which threatens to remove legal protections that prevent social media companies from being sued over content posted by third parties.
Several Facebook employees resigned in protest over the decision not to remove the 'looting and shooting' post, and internal emails showed that most voted in a poll to demand that the company no longer allow unfettered free speech on its platform.
In a virtual town hall with employees, Zuckerberg defended the decision not to take down the post.
He said that he didn't think that the post 'read as a dog whistle for vigilante supporters to take justice into their own hands.'
The CEO said it was decided to leave up the post because 'people need to know if the government is planning to deploy force.'
During the hyper-partisan Trump era, Facebook has come under fire from both liberals, who blame the social network for helping the president win election in 2016, and conservatives.
Liberals argue that Facebook allows the spread of disinformation that foments unrest and violence while conservatives have accused the platform of censoring their views.
Snapchat on Wednesday morning barred the president indefinitely from its site
One woman died on Wednesday when a mob of angry Trump supporters breached the Capitol and entered the House and Senate chambers.
The Senate was evacuated at 2.30pm.
There are more than 2,000 Capitol Police officers with special jurisdiction on Capitol Grounds. But they were overrun as protesters smashed through a window and penetrated the building.
Capitol Police were seen absorbing violent lunges by Trump supporters on the first floor of the Capitol building.
Police from neighboring Montgomery County, Maryland were also rushed to the Capitol vicinity, CNN reported.
Muriel Bowser, mayor of Washington DC, had already mobilized National Guard troops in advance of the pro-Trump rally billed as a 'stop the steal event' – although it coincided with the effort proscribed in law for Congress to count the votes of the Electoral College.
The entire D.C. National Guard was to be activated within hours, the Washington Post reported, after Bowser asked on duty guard to be sent to the Capitol.
Bowser also imposed a 6 pm curfew for Washington.
