    TOP GEAR: Season 18

    Nice episode. Usually, the end credits are supposed to show "The Stig's Italian Cousin". But they showed "The Stig" instead. And yeah- Stig's presence didn't make much sense.

    Noise cancelling on larger scale

    So, the materials with good absorption coefficient absorb sound better...like the difference between an auditorium and an anechoic chamber..but i don't think this helps in cancelling out a wave..

    What software do I need to make cartoons like SouthPark?

    they draw all frames with hand initially and others, tweened. these frames,that are previously drawn are then modified and used..maybe they use AE. imo, south park graphics are easy compared to the simpsons/family guy...
