Context paragraphs:
Distinction (sociology): In sociology, distinction is a social force that assigns different values upon different people within a given society.  In "Distinction: A Social Critique of the Judgement of Taste" ("La Distinction", 1979), Pierre Bourdieu described how the powers that be define aesthetic concepts such as "taste", whereby the social class of a person tends to determine his or her cultural interests, likes, and dislikes, and how political and socio-economic, racial and sexual distinctions, based upon social class, are reinforced in daily life within society.  Moreover, in "The Rebel Sell: Why the Culture Can't be Jammed" (2004), Joseph Heath and Andrew Potter describe "distinction" as a social competition in which the styles of social fashion are in continual development, and that the men and women who do not follow the development of social trends soon become stale, and irrelevant to their social-class stratum.

Order of Distinction (Ottoman Empire): The Order of Distinction or Order of Honour (Turkish: "Nişan-i Imtiyaz" ) was an order of the Ottoman Empire founded by Sultan Abdul Hamid I.

Russian tradition of the Knights Hospitaller: The Russian Tradition of The Knights Hospitaller (the Order of Knights of the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem or Knights of Malta or Knights of Rhodes) is a charitable organisation claiming to be a continuous tradition of the Order of St. John.  Their distinction emerged when the Mediterranean stronghold of Malta was captured by Napoleon in 1798 when he made his expedition to Egypt.  As a ruse, Napoleon asked for safe harbor to resupply his ships, and then turned against his hosts once safely inside Valletta.  Grand Master Ferdinand von Hompesch failed to anticipate or prepare for this threat, provided no effective leadership, and readily capitulated to Napoleon.  This was a terrible affront to most of the Knights desiring to defend their stronghold and sovereignty.  The Order continued to exist in a diminished form and negotiated with European governments for a return to power.  The Emperor of Russia gave the largest number of Knights shelter in St Petersburg and this gave rise to the Russian tradition of the Knights Hospitaller and recognition within the Russian Imperial Orders.  In gratitude the Knights declared Ferdinand von Hompesch deposed and Emperor Paul I was elected as the new Grand Master.  The continuous Order was also approved by the Papacy, but due to British fear of Russian taking presence in the Mediterranean and because many knights were Orthodox the Order became de facto the traditional Order but de jure not recognised similar or at par with the formation of the 19th-century Sovereign Military Order of Malta (SMOM).

Desk appearance ticket: In New York City, a desk appearance ticket (DAT) is an order to appear in the New York City Criminal Court for an arraignment.  A person who receives a DAT has been arrested.  The DAT is simply one of two alternative means by which a person who is arrested appears for arraignment, or first appearance.  A person who receives a DAT is permitted to appear in court on their own on the date indicated on the DAT document.  A person who does not receive a DAT is processed through the arrest to arraignment system and is supposed to have their arraignment within 24 hours.  From the point that the case is arraigned, a DAT case is like any other criminal case.  DATs are usually only issued for misdemeanors in which there is little chance that the defendant will flee the jurisdiction; currently, DATs may be issued for violation, misdemeanors, and "E" felonies.  If a person fails to return to court on the date indicated on the DAT, the Court will issue an arrest warrant.
