James Bond films released under British Prime Ministers. Alec Douglas-Home, James Callaghan and John Major were all very efficient, with one great film each. It’s unlikely that anyone will beat Margaret Thatcher’s record of six Bond films whilst she was PM.

The Pittsburgh Zoo is clearly in win-now mode.
Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium is set to trade gorillas with Boston’s Franklin Park Zoo. Frankie, Pittsburgh’s 7-year-old male western lowland gorilla, will head to Boston, and in exchange, Boston will send 33-year-old Little Joe the silverback @TribLIVE 🦍 triblive.com/local/regional/…

If you're just here for the weekend, I recommend the Charles River, slide 1. Can do endless loops or cut it short wherever. If you're here on Monday, I recommend this point-to-point route from Hopkinton, slide 2.
Replying to @Predamame
@Predamame headed up to Boston today and first time running there. Which route would you take for max vibes?
