Athens is without question the superior Classical city.
The city and the sights are beautiful and steeped with history, and Greek cuisine beats Italian any day of the week. Not to forget that it's only a bus tour away from Olympus and Thermopylae, to mention two examples.

I don't think he is going to come up with the money because he seems very desperate. I'm not sure how much you already know about the guy, but I have the following info and am waiting on getting his address: [bunch of doxx]
The drugs that killed Edwards — cocaine, heroin, ecstasy and the hallucinogen DMT — were bought from Silk Road, a website that operates in a shadowy area of the Internet that thrives on anonymity.
Federal Bureau of Investigation officers in San Francisco Tuesday arrested Ross William Ulbricht, 29, known as “Dread Pirate Roberts,” who allegedly runs Silk Road.
Federal prosecutors in New York charged Ulbricht with one count each of narcotics trafficking conspiracy, computer hacking conspiracy and money laundering conspiracy.
Ulbricht is accused of trying to hire a hitman to kill someone who was threatening to expose the identities of thousands of users of the website.
For Smith, the arrest was a personal victory.
“In my mind, he also murdered my son,” she said.
Edwards had been diagnosed with a series of mental illnesses, including psychosis, bipolar, social anxiety and personality disorders, ADD and Asperger’s syndrome.
Eight years of living with a changing mental illness diagnosis and treatment, left Edwards depressed.
He became a shut in and turned to an underground area of the Internet known as the Dark Web or Deep Web to buy illegal drugs.

It's also killing the House of Yamato. Since the New Constitution became a thing the Imperial Family have gone from 12 branches to 1 and women are being excluded upon their marriage on a regular basis. With 3 females and 1 male in the next generation there's going to be a time where HIH Prince Hisahito will be the last member to be legally allowed to propagate the House. Shit started with Meiji really, what with the Salic Law thing in a country where most newborns are female and excluding concubines.

Because the imperial line is patrilineal, being traced back to Emperor Jimmu, and through him, Ninigi-no-Mikoto.
Bear in mind, back when women became emperors, there were less strict views about incest, and a lot of the wives of emperors were their half-sisters, aunts, or nieces. No one wants to bring that back, therefore it's best that the succession remains male.

This is a total non sequitur. Having a woman on the throne does in no way mean they would start banging their brothers or something. It does not have to be patrilineal, and if it stays so there may be no Japanese imperial family left.
