MELBOURNE, Australia, (add date here): Concept Health has completed a new purpose-built medical centre in Mooroolbark, Victoria, delivering a 400 sqm healthcare fitout for Mooroolbark Station Medical Centre that transforms a former bank tenancy on Brice Avenue into a fully operational general practice.

The project involved a formal change of use from bank to medical centre, requiring detailed planning, regulatory coordination and a design response that converted an existing commercial premises into a compliant, patient and staff-friendly healthcare environment.

The completed practice includes 10 consult rooms, a procedure room, treatment room, pathology room, reception and waiting area, children’s zone, staff facilities and compliant amenities. Rather than treating the tenancy as a blank shell, the project team worked with the structure already in place, adapting the former bank into a space designed around the practical needs of modern primary care.

For Concept Health, the project reflects the ongoing need for healthcare spaces that are efficient for practitioners, while also creating a reassuring experience for patients. The scale of demand on general practice environments remains substantial, with the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare reporting 163.5 million GP attendances in Australia in 2023–24.

“Change of use projects like this require much more than a standard fitout,” said a spokesperson for Concept Health. “At Mooroolbark Station Medical Centre, the focus was on creating an environment that works well operationally for the healthcare team while also feeling calm, welcoming and easy for patients to move through.”

The fitout also made smart use of the building’s existing structure. Thick walls retained from the former bank tenancy were repurposed as integrated storage throughout the clinic, improving efficiency across the medical environment.

Visually, the centre was designed to move away from a cold or overly clinical feel. Drawing on Australian natural landscapes, the interior palette combines sage green tones, soft timber finishes and shades of blue to create a calmer atmosphere across the patient journey.

Australian-made products were specified throughout the project, including materials and furnishings from some of the best Australian manufacturers and furniture makers.

Concept Health specialises in the design and construction of healthcare environments across Australia, delivering medical centres, dental clinics and specialist practices tailored to the operational needs of healthcare providers.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

New Novel Explores Friendship and Second Chances on the French Riviera

East Hampton, NY – April 27, 2026 – What happens when four women in their mid-sixties trade a summer of painting in the Hamptons for a month of cooking classes in the hills above Nice? Diana L. Graham answers this question in her upcoming novel, Brushes, Baguettes & Bristles, a tender story about renewal, risk, and the friendships that hold us together.

The book follows Emma, Sara, Natalie, and Lee, childhood friends now navigating the quieter challenges of later life. Emma, a widow and artist, searches for more than the perfect light for her canvases. Sara, a divorced psychologist, has withdrawn so deeply that her friends barely recognize her. Lee, a journalist who swore off commitment, discovers that a casual fling in Paris feels unexpectedly complicated. Natalie, a successful cookbook author and television personality, realizes that her marriage has become nothing more than a business partnership.

When Natalie invites the group to spend April at a boutique hotel and vineyard on the Côte d’Azur, each woman arrives carrying her own invisible weight. Over four weeks of morning cooking lessons, afternoon painting, and long dinners under twinkling garden lights, they begin to shift. The novel does not shout about transformation. Instead, it watches it unfold slowly, through shared meals, honest conversations, and the quiet courage to say yes to something new.

The core message of Brushes, Baguettes & Bristles is simple but powerful. It is never too late to rewrite your story. Love can arrive when you least expect it. Friendship, when tended across decades, becomes a lifeline. The novel speaks directly to women over fifty who crave stories that reflect their own complexities. It also welcomes any reader who believes that second acts deserve as much attention as first ones. Fans of gentle, character-driven women’s fiction will feel at home here.

Graham writes with a restrained warmth that trusts readers to feel without being told. She avoids melodrama. Her sentences move like a morning stroll through a French village. She lets a bowl of soup or a hesitation at a doorway carry as much meaning as a declaration of love. This restraint makes the emotional moments land harder. Readers will find themselves slowing down, savoring each scene as if it were a meal they did not want to end.

Jack’d is hitting the road. This Pride season, the leading social and dating platform for gay, bi, trans, and queer men officially announces its City-to-City Tour—a multi-market experiential campaign designed to bring the app’s features, energy, and community directly into real life.

Spanning key cities across the U.S., the Jack’d Tour will activate during major Pride celebrations, including stops in Philadelphia, Houston, Washington D.C., Miami, Chicago, New York City, and Charlotte. The tour aims to transform digital connection into real-world interaction through immersive experiences, live content creation, and community-driven moments.

“This tour is about meeting our community where they are—in real life,” said Jack’d Rep, who leads U.S. social and experiential strategy for Jack’d. “Jack’d has always been about connection. Now we’re taking that beyond the screen and creating moments people can feel, experience, and remember.”

Each stop on the tour will feature:

  • Interactive Jack’d Lounges with charging stations, giveaways, and meet-ups
  • Live content experiences, including street interviews and creator collaborations
  • On-site app engagement, with guided demos highlighting features like Match, Moments, and Events
  • Exclusive merch drops and branded giveaways
  • In-app integrations, including geo-targeted alerts and promo codes unlocking Jack’d Pro

The City-to-City Tour is a key part of Jack’d’s evolving brand strategy—positioning the platform not just as a dating app, but as a cultural connector within the LGBTQIA+ community.

From Pride festivals to nightlife takeovers, Jack’d will collaborate with local creators, event producers, and community leaders in each city—ensuring every activation reflects the unique energy and identity of its audience.

“This isn’t a one-size-fits-all tour,” Parker added. “Each city has its own culture, its own rhythm. We’re tapping into that and building experiences that feel authentic to each community we show up in.”

As Pride season continues, Jack’d invites users and allies alike to join the tour, connect in real time, and experience the platform in a whole new way.

**PHOENIX, AZ** – True North Automation Systems LLC (DBA True North), a pioneer in cloud-based transportation technology, today announced the official launch of its next-generation owner-operator carrier platform. Designed specifically for owner-operators, True North combines proprietary AI freight dispatching, automated compliance, and a “driver-first” philosophy to modernize the freight industry.

In an era of rising fuel costs and complex administrative burdens, True North provides a tech-driven sanctuary and vital independent truck driver support. By integrating smart administration, elite logistics, and owner-operator business administration software into a single cloud-based ecosystem, the company allows owner-operators to strip away the “back-office” noise and focus on what they do best: driving.

“The road is evolving, but the carrier model has been stuck in the past,” said a spokesperson for True North. “We handle the safety and the scale so the driver can handle the business. Our goal is to leverage AI to maximize margins for the backbone of the American economy-the owner-operator.”

 **Key Features of the True North Platform:**

* **AI-Driven Trucking Profitability:** Proprietary routing and AI freight dispatching software identifies the most lucrative lanes while functioning as premium trucking software with real-time fuel prices.

* **Ultimate Autonomy:** Standing out among no forced dispatch trucking companies, a strict policy ensures that owner-operators maintain complete control over their schedules and business decisions.

* **Automated DOT Compliance for Owner-Operators:** The platform manages DOT inspections, permits, IFTA, and drug testing, ensuring drivers remain compliant without the paperwork headache.

* **Precision Maintenance:** Mileage-based truck maintenance alerts notify drivers of essential oil changes and inspections based on manufacturer specifications.

* **24/7 Trucker Roadside Assistance:** Every partner receives comprehensive support including 24/7 roadside assistance, towing, fuel delivery, and mechanical support.

True North champions flat-rate trucking carrier partnerships by operating on a transparent pricing model: an 18% load fee and a $249 weekly tech fee, with no hidden surprises. This streamlined approach ensures that as the driver’s revenue grows, the partnership remains predictable and scalable.

**About True North Automation Systems LLC:**

Headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, True North is a cloud-based carrier and technology firm dedicated to the success of independent owner-operators. By merging deep industry expertise with cutting-edge AI automation, True North is redefining the relationship between carriers and drivers.
