Trek may refer to:
Star Trek is an American science fiction entertainment franchise created by Gene Roddenberry and owned by CBS (TV series) and Paramount Pictures (Film Rights).Star Trek: The Original Series and its live-action TV spin-off series, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Star Trek: Voyager, and Star Trek: Enterprise as well as the Star Trek film franchise make up the main canon. The canonicity of Star Trek: The Animated Series is debated, and the expansive library of Star Trek novels and comics is generally considered non-canon, although still part of the franchise.
A star is a luminous sphere of plasma held together by its own gravity. The nearest star to Earth is the Sun. Other stars are visible to the naked eye from Earth during the night, appearing as a multitude of fixed luminous points in the sky due to their immense distance from Earth. Historically, the most prominent stars were grouped into constellations and asterisms, and the brightest stars gained proper names. Extensive catalogues of stars have been assembled by astronomers, which provide standardized star designations.
For at least a portion of its life, a star shines due to thermonuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium in its core, releasing energy that traverses the star's interior and then radiates into outer space. Once the hydrogen in the core of a star is nearly exhausted, almost all naturally occurring elements heavier than helium are created by stellar nucleosynthesis during the star's lifetime and, for some stars, by supernova nucleosynthesis when it explodes. Near the end of its life, a star can also contain degenerate matter. Astronomers can determine the mass, age, metallicity (chemical composition), and many other properties of a star by observing its motion through space, luminosity, and spectrum respectively. The total mass of a star is the principal determinant of its evolution and eventual fate. Other characteristics of a star, including diameter and temperature, change over its life, while the star's environment affects its rotation and movement. A plot of the temperature of many stars against their luminosities, known as a Hertzsprung–Russell diagram (H–R diagram), allows the age and evolutionary state of a star to be determined.
Film theory or cinema studies is an academic discipline that aims to explore the essence of the cinema and provides conceptual frameworks for understanding film's relationship to reality, the other arts, individual viewers, and society at large. Film theory is not to be confused with general film criticism, or film history, though there can be some crossover between the three disciplines.
French philosopher Henri Bergson's Matter and Memory (1896) has been cited as anticipating the development of film theory during the birth of cinema. Bergson commented on the need for new ways of thinking about movement, and coined the terms "the movement-image" and "the time-image". However, in his 1906 essay L'illusion cinématographique (in L'évolution créatrice) [English: The cinematic illusion in Creative Evolution], he rejects film as an exemplification of what he had in mind. Nonetheless, decades later, in Cinéma I and Cinema II (1983–1985), the philosopher Gilles Deleuze took Matter and Memory as the basis of his philosophy of film and revisited Bergson's concepts, combining them with the semiotics of Charles Sanders Peirce.
We tour Trek's home facility in Waterloo, WI, where carbon frames are made in the USA, painted and assembled into bikes. LIKE and SHARE this video!

As one of the only major brands still making carbon fiber frames in the USA, this was an incredible opportunity to find out just how carbon fiber is transformed from big rolls of fiber into finished bikes like the Madone. Also, the factory is home to Trek's paintshop, where many all of their Project One bikes are painted up. More on Trek: http://gcn.eu/TrekBikesGCN More on Project One: http://gcn.eu/_Project_One M...
See the 2016 Trek Madone: http://ow.ly/P2PKq The all-new Madone is a marvel in road cycling engineering, a bike that will live in history as the product that irrevocably altered the landscape of race bike design. Madone sets a new benchmark for aerodynamic performance, surpassing every other road bike in the wind tunnel and in real-world conditions. It's the ultimate in aerodynamics, integration, and ride quality.
2016 marks Star Trek’s 50th anniversary. That milestone has however not been celebrated quite as much as one would think. In this video, we will look at the state of Star Trek today, and cover everything we know of the upcoming series “Star Trek: Discovery”. We will also cover the speculation about what Discovery might actually be about, and if that implies any connection to the notorious Axanar fan film lawsuit.

While the Enterprise is sent on a seemingly routine mission, Kirk is recalled to starbase where he faces an ethical dilemma that challenges the very core of Starfleet Command.
Trek Bicycle (trekbikes.com) teamed up with Helen's Cycles (helenscycles.com) in Santa Monica to put on a demo ride for road and mountain bikers on Feb 9th, 2014. I joined a shop-led mountain bike ride and rode a 2014 Trek Remedy 9.8 27.5/650B: http://www.trekbikes.com/us/en/bikes/mountain/technical_trail/remedy/remedy_9_8_27/# The group ride started right next to the fire station on Mulholland Dr between Elvido Dr and Park Lane Cr. We climbed Mulholland Dr to the old Nike missile radar station at San Vicente. We then headed about 1.7 miles down W Mandeville Fire Rd, using some of the fire road and some of the singletrack along each side before heading back the same way. The total ride was 7.2 miles, 1,080 ft elevation gain, 1:20 total time. This video is shot on a GoPro Hero3+ Blac...

This week, it’s all about what we REALLY know about the so-called “benevolent” Federation. Sure, we all want to trust the Captain Kirk will always do the right thing, or that Captain Picard’s shiny bald head is really a beacon of hope in the universe, but what it isn’t? Today’s theory shows that there’s evidence to point to the Federation as something other than a peaceful exploration mission. That actually, the Federation is a fasc...
