Wine (1933 Film)
Wine is an alcoholic drink typically made from fermented grapes. Yeast consumes the sugar in the grapes and converts it to ethanol and carbon dioxide, releasing heat in the process. Different varieties of grapes and strains of yeasts are major factors in different styles of wine. These differences result from the complex interactions between the biochemical development of the grape, the reactions involved in fermentation, the grape's growing environment ( terroir), and the wine production process. Many countries enact legal appellations intended to define styles and qualities of wine. These typically restrict the geographical origin and permitted varieties of grapes, as well as other aspects of wine production. Wines not made from grapes involve fermentation of other crops including rice wine and other fruit wines such as plum, cherry, pomegranate, currant and elderberry. Wine has been produced for thousands of years. The earliest evidence of wine is from the Caucasus r ...

Pax Vobiscum (film)
In Christian liturgy, "the ''Pax''" is an abbreviation of the Latin salutations "''pax vobis''" ("peace to you") or "''pax vobiscum''" ("peace with you"), which are used in the Catholic Mass, the Lutheran Divine Service, and the Western Orthodox Mass. Origins Like the other liturgical salutations, ''e. g.'', "''Dominus vobiscum''", the ''Pax'' is of biblical origin. The Vulgate version of the Gospels contains such forms as "''veniet pax vestra''", "''pax vestra revertetur ad vos''" (literally, "may your peace return to you"; figuratively, "let your peace rest on you" or "may you be treated with the peace with which you treat others" ()), "''pax huic domui''" ("peace to this house" ()), "''pax vobis''" ("peace be with you" (, , and )). The salutation "''gratia vobis et pax''" or "''gratia misericordia et pax''" is the opening formula of most of the Epistles of Saint Paul, Saint Peter, and Saint John, and of the Book of Revelation. Liturgical use Jesus Christ and the Twelve Apo ...
