‘Murder Takes a Bow’ Debuts as Riveting Mystery E-Book With Healthy Living Spin

Diabetes awareness, a key motive behind “The Betty Crawford Mystery Series,” provides fresh twist to traditional genre

NEW YORK, June 15, 2010 — For mystery book fans, there’s perhaps nothing more disappointing than diving into a new read only to discover that everything from the storyline to the characters is downright predictable. A good mystery should entertain, inspire and perhaps even educate, and that’s exactly what Liz Marvin, author of “The Betty Crawford Mystery Series” (http://www.bettycrawfordmysteries.com) has achieved in her first mystery e-book, “Murder Takes a Bow.” In fact, with the launch of the new, 200-page e-book, Marvin takes the meaning behind mystery to a whole new level, incorporating a riveting plot with diabetes awareness, thanks to her lead character and heroine, Betty Crawford, a diabetic.

According to the publisher, Rick Johnston of Johnston Media, LLC, the premise behind the e-mysteries came about several years ago when his friend was diagnosed with Type II Diabetes. “When my buddy Scott Anderson was confronted with major health and lifestyle changes associated with this disease, he suggested that a diabetic character in a book might be a fresh way to generate awareness,” Johnston says. “The idea was to provide an exciting twist to a traditional genre, and I thought it was superb. With Scott’s help, this concept is now developing into an entire series.”

Available at BettyCrawfordMysteries.com, “Murder Takes a Bow” is a free PDF download. Throughout the text, there are links to information and education on diabetes, such as The Dole Nutrition Institute, a leading research and education organization. Moreover, the e-book itself features a collection of recipes fit for the diabetic diet. Yet within “Murder Takes a Bow” there’s also a hearty menu of all the mystery-appropriate ingredients — romance, suspense and friendship — making it an appealing read to a more general readership.

“‘Murder Takes a Bow’ is a totally unique type of mystery in that we’ve harnessed the power of online tools and incorporated them into an entertaining experience that strives to educate and connect people to valuable information,” Johnston says. “Readers are going to love that this mystery download is free, but, even better, the product is much more than just a thrilling read. ‘The Betty Crawford Mystery Series’ enables people to learn about a serious, complex disease that affects a massive community of people and provides solid tips for a healthy lifestyle.”

YOU control the pinwheel of death in the first-ever iPad™ art installation, “Waiting for Google,” now on view at the Murphy and Dine Gallery in New York City.

You can speed it up, slow it down, stop it or even make it go backwards, but you can’t make it go away.

“Waiting for Google” is artist Brian Kane’s magical, game-changing creation, which celebrates waiting and uncertainty in today’s force-quit world.

The exhibition explores the transfer of virtual experiences into the real world via monumental sculpture in a relaxed corporate-casual style. The user interface is elegant, intuitive and universal. There are no buttons to push. Just touch and control. It’s that simple.

Additional contents may include: foam anvils, pi to the millionth digit, sofappropriate prints, Mini MeatWater™, eXperimints™, PBJectors™, gift baskets, and more!

You’re invited to the closing party on Thursday evening, May 6 at the Murphy and Dine Gallery’s Chelsea location – see http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=342198835895 or http://blog.slashboing.com/bk/2010/03/10/waiting-for-google-murphy-and-dine-gallery/ for more info.

Have you ever seen two videos of a completely different nature and thought about how crazy and fun it would be to watch them side by side at the same time?

YouTube Doubler (currently in its Gamma phase – a later phase – of development) will let you do just that and has made it very easy to create your own weird and wonderful video mashups.

The only tools you will need to make your own YouTube Doubler is a great sense of humor and a keen and creative eye (and ear).

For inspiration, have a look at the current top ten YouTube Doubler mashups as recorded on January 13:

1. Requiem for Alex Jones
2. Luckiest Man On Earth (Almost Deadly Accident) vs Human Tetris
3. Goat vs Alex Jones
4. Final Fantasy VII vs 2girls1cup best reaction
5. Joe vs Toby
6. YouTube Dramatics
7. Ninja Cat vs Psycho
8. More Alex Jones vs Goat
9. Hurtful Words vs Geico Caveman
10. ARMY OF THE PHARAOHS – BATTLE CRY vs Fatties at the grocery store rant
