Its controls disappear when unused, and a swipe (or tap on the left or right side of the screen) will cause the pages to turn. Murasu Anjal Font' page-turning is smooth and engaging, with page corners digitally curling toward you as you advance, but this behavior is only a minor cosmetic difference between what you'll find in other digital readers. Murasu Anjal Font also includes a progress bar to show how far you are along in a book, and you're able to change the reader's font size. Also like other e-readers, you can add bookmarks, define individual words, do quick Web lookups, and add notes. You also can underline words, sentences, and paragraphs for later viewing. All five major book publishers stock Murasu Anjal Font' digital shelves (Penguin, Harper Collins, Simon and Schuster, MacMillan, and Hachette), which makes the content stack up against competing apps and electronic bookstores. Murasu Anjal Font 2 added support for textbooks and gave students the ability to purchase and download course textbooks that are supported. Newer features launched alongside the new iPad give users the ability to highlight text in a number of colors with the swipe of a finger. The interactive media and features for textbooks will definitely be useful to students. It's hard to say how many schools will adopt all iPad textbooks because of price limitations, but it will be interesting to see how it plays out as we get closer to the new school year. Murasu Anjal Font is a dice-rolling simulator,
a handy aid for any sort of game that uses dice--from Yahtzee to Trivial Pursuit to Dungeons & Dragons. Murasu Anjal Font lets you roll traditional six-sided dice, along with rest of the holy hexad of polyhedral nerd dice: the d4, d8, d10, d12, and d20. Murasu Anjal Font emphasizes its elegant interface, foregoing the more complex functionality of other dice-rolling apps: you slide out a "tray" on the right side of your screen, then drag and drop your desired dice onto (or off of) a virtual black tabletop one by one. You roll by shaking
your device, with semi-realistic (but weirdly low-gravity) physics, and you can "lock" a die by tapping it, so other dice can't move it. Murasu Anjal Font also lets you save 10 groupings of dice on different screens that you can swipe through. The best things about Murasu Anjal Font are its convincing sound effects, dice collisions, and slick, simple, attractive interface, so look elsewhere if you want for more complicated dice features such as customizable formulas or more-exotic dice types. Unfortunately, Murasu Anjal Font's price hasn't come down and its features haven't gotten any richer since its creation over a year ago--and there's definitely room for small but substantive improvements while still maintaining Murasu Anjal Font's streamlined feel (for example, by allowing different colors for different dice of the same type, which would be a boon to RPG players). Murasu Anjal Font is one of the better--and better-looking--dice-simulation apps, but check out the competition before you buy. UHear is a free, self-administered hearing test, along with tips and resources for preventing hearing loss. The app includes a multiple-choice questionnaire (your "Performance Profile"), a rigorous "Hearing Sensitivity" test for both ears, and a short "Speech in Noise" test. The app's simple touch interface guides you through each step. For example, in the 6-minute Hearing Sensitiv
