Fukuoka: The Japanese city that dominates street food
  + stars: | 2023-10-23 | by ( Lilit Marcus | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +5 min
CNN —Fukuoka, Japan’s sixth largest city by population, has more open-air food stalls than the rest of the country combined. These stalls are called yatais, and they’re an indelible part of what makes Fukuoka’s food scene so special. A vendor prepares local Hakata-style pork broth ramen at a Fukuoka yatai. Hemis/Alamy Stock Photo“Yatai is the best place to make friends,” says Nick Szasz, a Canadian-born longtime resident of Japan who runs the English-language website Fukuoka Now. Though the city has always been dotted with these food carts, Takashima’s administration set up a committee to regulate them and make sure they’d remain a vital part of the city.

The Quadruplets Research Committee that Rosenthal oversaw included psychologists, psychoanalysts, social workers, sociologists and a geneticist. Gathering up the committee’s disparate findings, Rosenthal published “The Genain Quadruplets: A Case Study and Theoretical Analysis of Heredity and Environment in Schizophrenia” in 1963, when psychiatry itself was at a crossroads, and President Kennedy had called for the replacement of state hospitals with community care. The violence and dysfunction Farley describes is gothically sordid, painful to read about and entirely believable. But as the fairy-tale title suggests, “Girls and Their Monsters” is more concerned with the mythic and metaphorical than the medical. Farley’s subtitle replaces schizophrenia, heredity and environment with “the Making of Modern Madness,” evoking Thomas Szasz’ “The Manufacture of Madness,” which likened psychiatry to the Spanish Inquisition, and Michel Foucault’s theory of mental illness as a socially constructed tool of state power.

Hamish Harding's alma mater hosted an under-the-sea-themed ball on Wednesday and played "My Heart Will Go On" at the event. Harding is one of five people trapped on the sunken Titan submersible. The Pembroke May Ball Committee apologized after the fact. The billionaire, Hamish Harding, is a Pembroke alumnus and one of five people trapped on the lost submersible. The May Ball Committee added that they chose the "Into the Depths" theme of the ball "many months ago," and that "if we could change it now, we would."

Psychiatry’s guiding paradigm is that some extremes of mood are sufficiently severe that they constitute illness. This argument isn’t restricted to questions about diagnoses; a version of it plays out across multiple mental-health-related debates. At first glance, these can look like separate discussions, but they tend to boil down to the same central questions: Is happiness always the goal of mental health treatment? Emotions run particularly high around medication, and the same questions arise in the field of psychotherapy. The intervention being debated in this case is slower moving, but clinicians still disagree about the fundamental purpose of the talking cure.
