In ancient Greece, the asclepion was a healing temple dedicated to Asclepius, the God of Medicine. Asclepius learned the art of surgery from the centaur Chiron and had the ability to raise the dead. The Rod of Asclepius is a roughhewn branch entwined with a single serpent.

Short Blogging Outtage
Oh, we've become so dependent on the Internet. Even services like Blogger, which I use to publish these posts, feel essential. There was nearly 24 hours of blackout when blogger services were down, and I didn't know what to do! How interesting our society is today - if we lose even a day of Internet or cell phone access, or we are unable to check our email, or we cannot pay or bills online - our lives are significantly disrupted. Who could have said how central Internet, wireless, electronics, and computers would be in our everyday activities? In any case, we're back in business so hopefully things will be smooth from here on out. That being said, I love Blogger; I've used it for the last 11 years and am completely satisfied with it.
