NBA best bets for Oct. 27: Odds, expert picks for Knicks vs. Pistons, Lakers vs. Trail Blazers and more

The defending champion Knicks are still searching for their first win of the season, and they’ll get a tough test Tuesday night when the unbeaten Pistons roll into Madison Square Garden. New York has opened its title defense 0-3, while Detroit is 3-0 and sitting atop the Eastern Conference. The Pistons will be without starting center Jalen Duren, though, and the Knicks are still laying around 4 points at home as oddsmakers bet on the banner over the slow start. The nightcap of NBC’s coast-to-coast doubleheader sends the Trail Blazers to Crypto.com Arena to face the Lakers in a matchup of undefeated West teams. Los Angeles is 3-0 behind a red-hot Luka Doncic, while Portland is 2-0 and comes in rested against a Lakers team playing the front end of a back-to-back.

Activision Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4

There is a new game titled "Call of Duty" every year, but it's not every year that Call of Duty is really back.

This is an extravagant package on all fronts: A kinetic 6v6 FPS with truly excellent gunplay, a fun campaign that doesn't just play the hits, and an expansive extraction "mode" that would be its own game if any other name were on the box. I have complaints, but this is what it looks like when Call of Duty is in the pocket. The best Call of Duty studio got to take its time (four years, tied with the longest in series history) and…

Return of the lame-duck session with RI General Assembly set to reconvene after November election

For the first time in six years, state lawmakers are set to reconvene after the Nov. 3 election to consider the appointments of five magistrates and potentially four other judges, including Gov. Dan McKee's pick for the Supreme Court. Superior Court Presiding Justice Joseph A. Montalbano last week recommended Timothy G. Healy and Kara Hoopis Manosh for magistrate positions in the state's highest trial court, subject to advice and consent from the Senate. All Rhode Island magistrates serve 10-year terms unlike judges who serve lifetime appointments. Also up for consideration are Robert A. Ragosta and Therese M. Picard, who Family Court Chief Judge Michael Forte recommended for appointments to become magistrates in August. In addition, Forte recommended the reappointment of Traffic Tribunal Magistrate Erika Kruse Weller in January. Senate spokesperson Greg Paré confirmed Tuesday that the…

Communication complaints after storm hits flights

Air passengers said they were frustrated about delays and cancellations to their travel plans caused by Storm Austen when high winds grounded aircraft. Liv Bichard was planning to take an Aurigny flight from Guernsey to attend an important family event. She said her Aurigny flight was cancelled and she rebooked "and it just kept cancelling and they didn't warn me". Others also complained about what they said was a lack of communication. The airline's chief commercial officer Philip Saunders said it did contact passengers and said safety was the firm's top priority. Bichard told BBC Guernsey she had planned to fly to Southampton on Friday and then booked to Gatwick, before rebooking a flight on Saturday evening. She said it would have helped "if they sent out more updates by email or text message". She headed to the airport only to discover her flight was cancelled. Bronwen Dudley-Owen…
