• They've Got the Power in the Suburban Flex Market (bankerandtradesman.com) — A major office campus at 174 and 176 Middlesex Turnpike in Bedford is steadily filling up, with seven leases signed and flexible spec suites drawing a mix of tech, legal, and food-related tenants. Cummings Properties explains how it's breaking up the once-vacant 330,000-square-foot complex to attract growing companies, a shift that could bring more jobs and activity to Bedford's commercial corridor.
   

• There are no mulligans in the Dual County League, where several golf contenders are battling it out (bostonglobe.com) — Bedford High's golf team gets a brief shoutout in a wider look at the fiercely competitive Dual County League, where Weston currently leads the Foley Division ahead of Bedford and Waltham. The story highlights how tougher stroke-play scoring and deep lineups at rival schools are shaping the playoff race, giving Bedford golfers a challenging path as they chase postseason hopes.
