Samurai (Language and literature)

Katō Kiyomasa was one of the most powerful and well-known lords of the Sengoku Era. He commanded most of Japan's major clans during the invasion of Korea (1592–1598).

He also ordered his followers to put forth great effort in studying the military classics, especially those related to loyalty and filial piety. He is best known for his quote: "If a man does not investigate into the matter of Bushido daily, it will be difficult for him to die a brave and manly death.

Identity_(social_science) (Philosophy and religion)

Kenneth Gergen formulated additional classifications, which include the strategic manipulator, the pastiche personality, and the relational self. The strategic manipulator is a person who begins to regard all senses of identity merely as role-playing exercises, and who gradually becomes alienated from his or her social "self". The pastiche personality abandons all aspirations toward a true or "essential" identity, instead viewing social interactions as opportunities to play out, and hence become, the roles they play. Finally, the relational self is a perspective by which persons abandon all sense of exclusive self, and view all sense of identity in terms of social engagement with others. For Gergen, these strategies follow one another in phases, and they are linked to the increase in popularity of postmodern culture and the rise of telecommunications technology.

Q1: Who formulated the classifications of strategic manipulator, pastiche personality and the relational self?
A1: Kenneth Gergen
Q2: In what classification is a person who regards all experiences are role play and becomes alienated from his or her social self?
A2: The strategic manipulator
Q3: In what classification is a person who gives up the chance for a true self and adopts social perceptions of him or herself?
A3: The pastiche personality
Q4: In what classification is a person who gives up their exclusive sense of self and defines him or herself only in terms of social engagement?
A4: the relational self
Q5: The strategic manipulator, pastiche personality, and relational self are linked to the rise of what culture?
A5: postmodern culture
Christian (Language and literature)

Kenneth Samuel Wuest holds that all three original New Testament verses' usages reflect a derisive element in the term Christian to refer to followers of Christ who did not acknowledge the emperor of Rome. The city of Antioch, where someone gave them the name Christians, had a reputation for coming up with such nicknames. However Peter's apparent endorsement of the term led to its being preferred over "Nazarenes" and the term Christianoi from 1 Peter becomes the standard term in the Early Church Fathers from Ignatius and Polycarp onwards.

Q1: Kenneth Samuel Wuest believes that the Biblical Christian term referenced people who did not acknowledge who?
A1: the emperor of Rome
Q2: In what city did the term Christians start?
A2: Antioch
Q3: When Peter endorsed the term, the term Christian was used instead of what other term?
A3: Nazarenes

Kerry received his second Purple Heart for a wound received in action on the Bồ Đề River on February 20, 1969. The plan had been for the Swift boats to be accompanied by support helicopters. On the way up the Bo De, however, the helicopters were attacked. As the Swift boats reached the Cửa Lớn River, Kerry's boat was hit by a B-40 rocket (rocket propelled grenade round), and a piece of shrapnel hit Kerry's left leg, wounding him. Thereafter, enemy fire ceased and his boat reached the Gulf of Thailand safely. Kerry continues to have shrapnel embedded in his left thigh because the doctors that first treated him decided to remove the damaged tissue and close the wound with sutures rather than make a wide opening to remove the shrapnel. Though wounded like several others earlier that day, Kerry did not lose any time off from duty.
