These can be divided into a “classic” group of symptoms that are highly (though not exclusively) indicative of cardiac arrhythmia and an “other” group of symptoms that are just as likely to be caused by an arrhythmia as something else. But many times, much to patients’ surprise, cardiac arrhythmias may not produce any symptoms at all. This is especially true for arrhythmias that produce intermittent “extra” heartbeats—namely, premature atrial complexes (PACs) and premature ventricular complexes (PVCs)....

What is certain is the rising unemployment rate. U.S. unemployment rose to 5 percent for the first time in two and a half years in December. That’s likely a result of the fallout from the subprime mortgage crisis—and there’s probably more to come. Don’t wait for the alarm bells to sound.

MORE: Ernie Banks in photos | Notable sports deaths of 2015 The two have already bumped heads over where to bury Banks, who died at age 83 in January. Elizabeth Banks won that round, having Banks’ remains buried near Wrigley Field. She also is contesting a will Banks signed in October that gave Rice the rights to his estate.

The Montreal goaltender kept his team down by only a goal (and saved backchecking forward Nick Suzuki from harm) when he made a desperate stick save on Scott Laughton, who was alone in the crease and had a wide-open net after Price had slid out of the crease. As often happens after a huge save, the Canadiens went down and scored to tie the game shortly after. Shea Weber’s tally at 14:38 of the second made it 1-1....
The current state of Major League Baseball has been analyzed a lot during the offseason after Bryce Harper sparked the conversation. Correa echoes what Harper said, and adds his own thoughts on the issue in a first-person piece for Sole Collector.

Blackmon, the Rockies' second-round pick in 2008, has split his time between the major and minor leagues each of the past three seasons, with 82 appearances for the big club in Denver last season. In 258 plate appearances, he hit .309/.336/.467 with six home runs, and was a perfect 7-for-7 on stolen base attempts. One glaring weakness for Blackmon was plate discipline, as he struck out 49 times, with only seven walks....
The 32-year-old, who didn't pitch in the big leagues in 2013, will attempt a comeback next season, his agent tells the Chicago Tribune. “He’s playing winter ball and wants to continue his career,” Barry Praver said. The enigmatic Zambrano, who often has feuded with opposing players as well as teammates, went 7-10 with a 4.49 ERA in 35 games (20 starts) for the Miami Marlins in 2012. He signed with the Philadelphia Phillies signed him to a minor league deal in May, but he never made it pasted Class-AAA because of shoulder pain....
The Knicks star talked about flopping and officiating during a season in which he is averaging a career low in free-throw attempts per game (5.7).

There were reports Wednesday that the Hurricanes were closing in on a deal to make the Chicago Wolves their new AHL affiliate. The decision would end a 10-year relationship with the Checkers that began when the minor league team was founded in 2010.

R onaldo yet to discuss Real future Ronaldo, Madrid’s record goalscorer, only signed a new five-year-deal last November, but is reportedly seeking to leave the Spanish capital following accusations he defrauded Spanish tax authorities out of €14.7million – a claim he strenuously denies. The 32-year-old is reported to view a return to United as his favoured option if he does depart the Santiago Bernabeu, with Ronaldo winning three Premier League titles, an FA Cup, two League Cups and the Champions League during a six-year stay at Old Trafford between 2003 and 2009....
In densely populated American cities, where traffic, parking and insurance are all prohibitive, car sharing is revving up. It makes good financial sense: Zipcars rent for $8.50 an hour on average and the renter doesn’t pay for insurance or gas (there’s a gas card for refills). There are now 15 car-sharing companies in about 20 U.S. cities and membership has doubled since last year. The biggest growth has been in two companies going national–Boston’s Zipcar and Seattle’s Flexcar....
IYER: Week 7 picks | Power Rankings | Week 7 Spreads Kevin Kolb, John Skelton, Ryan Lindley and Brian Hoyer combined for 21 interceptions as Cardinals’ starters last season. With 11 in six games this season, Palmer is on pace for 29. His completion percentage (59.3) and passer rating (69.3) is pretty much a wash from what they all did together (55.4, 63.1). Although Palmer’s being sacked (13 times) at a much lesser rate than the 58 times that quartet was taken down, he’s still struggling when pressured behind an Arizona offensive line that still is near the bottom of the league....
The full-back has signed a five-year deal that reportedly contains a huge buyout option of at least €350 million. Contracts in La Liga are obliged to contain such clauses in order that, in principle, players have the freedom to move elsewhere even if their club is opposed to a transfer. Paris Saint-Germain exploited this requirement in spectacular fashion over the summer, as they paid a world-record sum of €222m to free Neymar from his Barcelona contract and bring him to Ligue 1....

He is driven, but not by some inner hurt or buried longing. Citizen Case may understand the wired age the way the cinematic Citizen Kane grasped the potential of the tabloid newspaper, but inquiring reporters are not likely to find any Rosebud buried in his past. He has not been forged by adversity; he does not so much face down the naysayers as shrug them off. His modest and low-key father, a corporate lawyer in Honolulu, takes no credit for his son’s success....
