If you purchased our averagely-dimensioned but misleadingly-titled Big Book of Top Gear, you’ll have noticed an advert for ‘Top Gear: The Movie’. It starred Matt Damon as Clarkson, Dame Judi Dench as May and Leo DiCaprio as Hammond.
Some critics described it as ‘sodding brilliant’, others were less congratulatory. This new offering however, is not another ‘Top Gear: The Movie’, but rather Top Gear AT the Movies, where Mssrs Hammond and May present a film involving cars. On film.
It’s probably better than an actual real-life movie, with actors and everything. Though that largely depends on what movie you’re comparing it to. It lacks the ‘Heartwarming!’ drama of Titanic, and contains considerably less bitey alien action than Aliens.
In fact, we’re not really sure it is better than an actual movie. Why not watch the trailer and judge for yourself. The whole finished thing is released today in time for all good Christmas stockings, which might give you a better idea. And you can order it here.

20% of comments already mention pirating it… er… why? The more money they make off of this, the bigger Top Gear’s budget should be for next season!

It was pretty good. However on a 1 hour DVD we definitely DON’T need lots of “earlier on we…” space fillers.

This show could use better video editing or just show that somebody other than hammond and mays are driving the cars. electronically blurring the windows to hide it is wack. Other than that good show.

I found it very boring. Pointlessly destroying cars, driving different cars to hear their “sound”, demo derby racing. That’s about it. Yawn. Has been done so many times in the past.

Tool Mentor:
Comparing and Merging Rational Rose Models Using Model Integrator
Purpose
This tool mentor describes how to use the Model Integrator to compare and
merge models.
Related Rational Unified Process information:
Activity: Create Baselines
Activity: Integrate Subsystem
Activity: Integrate System
Overview
This tool mentor is applicable for all operating systems supported by
Rational Rose.
Tool Steps
To compare and merge Rational Rose models:
Prepare the models for merging
Load and compare the models
Merge the models
1. Prepare the models for merging
Before merging models, it is a good idea to check each model with the
Rational Rose Tools menu item. If errors are reported, those errors should be corrected before performing a merge with
the Model Integrator.
2. Load and compare the models
After starting Model Integrator, select the File >Contributors menu
item, and then use the Contributors dialog box to load the models.
With the models loaded, Compare mode highlights the differences between two or more models. Conflicts are displayed as well, but in Compare mode, the Merge icons are not displayed. You can switch back and forth between Compare mode and Merge mode, so you can begin a work session in Compare mode and then switch to Merge mode if you decide to merge the models. In Compare mode, you cannot make any changes to the model, and the Merge menu and toolbar functions are disabled.
For
more information on comparing models, see the Comparing Models topic in the
Model Integrator online Help.
3. Merge the models
Merge mode incorporates all of the features of Compare mode, along with additional information to support the decisions you need to make in order to successfully merge model files. Model Integrator supports two types of merge functionality:
Automatic Merge — Model Integrator merges all changes that do not produce conflicts.
Selective Merge — Allows the user to choose the contributor for each difference found between the models to be merged.
Automatic merge takes effect when Model Integrator first enters Merge mode. It creates a recipient model and automatically merges all unchanged or trivially changed nodes into the recipient model for you. If the merged model has nodes that have conflicts, Model Integrator displays an icon at the location of the conflict in the browser window. As you make choices to resolve these conflicts, Model Integrator shows you the results of your merge.
The selective merge feature lets you change the contributor at nodes that have differences as well as conflicts. This can be useful when you do not want to accept all of the changes that a contributor is making to your model. It is also useful when you need to correct more complicated errors such as those discovered by the semantic checking functions.
Note: You must save the merged model, otherwise the results of the merge
will not be available later.
For
more information on merging models, see the Merging Models topic in the Model
Integrator online Help.
