Today, Lakshmi's House is a temple that houses Sri Aurobindo's relics.
It is a field of action for the realization of our spiritual Ideal.
The process of generating the guidance is the electronic equivalent of randomly looking up a book to receive an indication or answer.
The Mother explains the process
Everybody can do it. It is done in this way: you concentrate. Now, it depends on what you want. If you have an inner problem and want the solution, you concentrate on this problem; if you want to know the condition you are in, which you are not aware of - if you want to get some light on the state you are in, you just come forward with simplicity and ask for the light. Or else, quite simply, if you are curious to know what the invisible knowledge has to tell you, you remain silent and still for a moment and then open the book. I always used to recommend taking a paper-knife, because it is thinner; while you are concentrated you insert it in the book and with the tip indicate something. Then, if you know how to concentrate, that is to say, if you really do it with an aspiration to have an answer, it always comes.
For, in books of this kind (Mother shows The Synthesis of Yoga), books of revelation, there is always an accumulation of forces - at least of higher mental forces, and most often of spiritual forces of the highest knowledge. Every book, on account of the words it contains, is like a small accumulator of these forces. People don't know this, for they don't know how to make use of it, but it is so. In the same way, in every picture, photograph, there is an accumulation, a small accumulation representative of the force of the person whose picture it is, of his nature and, if he has powers, of his powers. Now, you, when you are sincere and have an aspiration, you emanate a certain vibration, the vibration of your aspiration which goes and meets the corresponding force in the book, and it is a higher consciousness which gives you the answer.
Everything is contained potentially. Each element of a whole potentially contains what is in the whole. It is a little difficult to explain, but you will understand with an example: when people want to practise magic, if they have a bit of nail or hair, it is enough for them, because within this, potentially, there is all that is in the being itself. And in a book there is potentially - not expressed, not manifest - the knowledge which is in the person who wrote the book. Thus, Sri Aurobindo represented a totality of comprehension and knowledge and power; and every one of his books is at once a symbol and a representation. Every one of his books contains symbolically, potentially, what is in him. Therefore, if you concentrate on the book, you can, through the book, go back to the source. And even, by passing through the book, you will be able to receive much more than what is just in the book.
There is always a way of reading and understanding what one reads, which gives an answer to what you want. It is not just a chance or an amusement, nor is it a kind of diversion. You may do it just "like that", and then nothing at all happens to you, you have no reply and it is not interesting. But if you do it seriously, if seriously your aspiration tries to concentrate on this instrument - it is like a battery, isn't it, which contains energies - if it tries to come into contact with the energy which is there and insists on having the answer to what it wants to know, well, naturally, the energy which is there - the union of the two forces, the force given out by you and that accumulated in the book - will guide your hand and your paper-knife or whatever you have; it will guide you exactly to the thing that expresses what you ought to know…. Obviously, if one does it without sincerity or conviction, nothing at all happens. If it is done sincerely, one gets an answer.
Certain books are like this, more powerfully charged than others; there are others where the result is less clear. But generally, books containing aphorisms and short sentences - not very long philosophical explanations, but rather things in a condensed and precise form - it is with these that one succeeds best.
Naturally, the value of the answer depends on the value of the spiritual force contained in the book. If you take a novel, it will tell you nothing at all but stupidities. But if you take a book containing a condensation of forces - of knowledge or spiritual force or teaching power - you will receive your answer.

maddog imagines what it would be like to own a Microsoft-certified toilet.
Years ago, I wrote an article about taking a shower in a hotel and almost burning myself. The faucet handles in the shower were round and smooth, and with soap on my hands I could not grip the handles to adjust the hot water. I thought to myself that standards in the plumbing industry would allow people to replace the handles on these faucets to give you something to grip. Later, I started thinking that, with no or "proprietary" standards, you would not be able to replace the faucet handles without replacing the pipe out to the street. Last night, the toilet in my bathroom refused to flush. I knew what was wrong, because on the previous flush the handle had given that characteristic jerk, telling me that it was no longer attached to the flushing mechanism by the little chain.

As national retailers plan to kick off the holiday shopping season earlier than ever with hours on Thanksgiving Day, some Massachusetts merchants are starting to question whether the state's Colonial-era blue laws, which prohibit Thanksgiving openings, are becoming outdated. With stores in neighboring states such as New Hampshire set to open on Thursday night and Internet shopping always available, Massachusetts' restrictions may just be sending sales elsewhere, said Jon Hurst, president of the Retailers Association of Massachusetts.

Friday Poll: Are you sticking with Instagram?
Instagram and its owner Facebook really stepped into it this week. A new terms of service update set to go into effect on January 16 would have given Instagram the right to sell users' photos or use them in ads.
As you might expect, the prospect of Instagram running rampant with photos didn't sit well with its 100 million users. The interest in escaping Instagram grew, with nearly 6,000 readers sharing over Facebook CNET's instructions for backing up and deleting their Instagram accounts.
It took a little while, but Instagram finally coughed out an apology and backtracked … Read more

text: "We Weep" by Chad Gurley Based on a painting by Michael D. O'Brien Station 8: Jesus Meets the Women of JerusalemVDS Stations of the Cross Worship & Art Experience Wednesday, April 4, 2012 Just as weeping is universal, so is human suffering of all kinds. This empathic piece illustrates how we are ALL the weeping women of Jerusalem regardless of our age, sex, gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, class, habitat, religion or beliefs. Humanity overflows with tears of empathy over the suffering of others, as well as over our complicit or unintentional participation in causing others to suffer. Our transcendent grief and remorse draw us into the loving arms of Christ who offers us compassion and consolation as we daily weep away the pain of the world. The photos that make up the mosaic have been collected from the over 100,000 photographs found on the internet of humanity grieving, crying, mourning, or experiencing sadness. Included in these photographs are members of the GABLE community who lovingly stand in solidarity with all who suffer. The process of pulling together all these photos of people across the globe expressing very real, heartbreaking and painful emotions was agonizing in itself. The stark realization that every moment the world is flooded with tears can be despairing. It can cause us to bitterly answer Christ's statement, "Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children," with, "We do. Oh, we do." However, this emotional experience also gives us pause to reflect on how we will respond to our collective weeping. Instead of paralyzing us, our tears offer us a hopeful opportunity to corporately embody Christ today, our Jesus who also wept. As the resurrected Body of Christ, we, as God's children, can share Christ's healing embrace with humanity, wipe every tear from their eyes. And we can also channel Christ's righteous indignation over the needless suffering we inflict on our human family into reparative and regenerative action, continually hopeful of manifesting Christ's Kingdom today. chad gurley christ crucifixion daughters of jerusalem easter good friday jerusalem jesus jesus meets the women of jerusalem station 8 stations of the cross tears vanderbilt divinity school we weep weep women of jerusalem michael d. o'brien

I love visitors. Maybe it's the "new" in my "New Yorker" title, but I love packing in tons of activities (and shopping, of course) into a short amount of time when people come to visit this city I call home.
So when my friend Jackie (who also writes a really cool blog you can read here) took the train down from upstate for a day of NYC adventures, I was beyond excited.
Of course, what's a trip to NYC without a trip to Henri Bendel – for two 20-somethings with a love for all things sparkly, glitzy and glossy.
Immediately after entering the store, we noticed a large amount of pigments and a mini-chemistry lab at one of the cosmetics counters. Intrigued, we had to learn more.
"What was this godsend?" We thought to ourselves.
"Custom Lipstick and Gloss? Oh My!" we cried.
And there we found ourselves in the midst of a serious project. What did we want to make? What ever-elusive color was in our quest this sunny Sunday? A Red, Pink, or Gloss?
After choosing a reddish color, I worked together with the "artist" from Giella to come up with a shade that was right for me. Please note, this is not an easy task – there was lots of trying on, and wiping off. Come with ideas and examples.
Just look at this palette of colors – and how they changed as I tried them on and gave feedback. Some were too bold, others too red. But eventually we got there!
At $28, it's about average for a luxury lip product – but since it's an experience (takes about an hour) and you end up with exactly what you want – it's worth it.

Continued antibiotics for Gronk; surgery on hold for now
Rob Gronkowski won't be having surgery to check on the status of his infection, and ultimately install a new plate in his left forearm just yet. According to one source familiar with the proceedings, the decision for now is to have the Patriots tight end delay the surgery for several more weeks to be sure the infection has completely cleared out, and continue with the course of antibiotics. ''Gonna hold off for a few weeks to make sure infection gone before going back in,'' a source close to the situation said. Gronkowski, agent Drew Rosenhaus, team officials, both team physicians and outside consultants conferred on what the next step would be, and arrived at staying the course with antibiotics a little while longer. Gronkowski has been battling an infection discovered during the process of his second surgery to repair the second break of his left forearm. The all-world tight end suffered the initial break during Week 11 of the regular season against the Indianapolis Colts while blocking for an extra point.

on the gamestop website, it clearly states that THUG 2 arrived today.
so I went down to my local gamestop and asked them if they had the game in, they said no (which was dissapointing, but i wasn't mad) then they said, that they would get it marc 25th! there website claims to have it in stock today, but i have to wait longer (i have very few chances to go to gamestop, I won't be able to pick the game up until april!) this really makes me mad. does anybody know if large retailers (wal mart, target, best buy) will get the game early?
Oh dear, get it from the site then.... :? Or wait? Its not been delayed, just the site "supposidly" got it early, which i dont believe, but we will have to wait and see. The 25th is the launch date, so wait if you cant get it now. Only 10 more days
It went on sale today. People are already posting first impressions on gamefaqs.

Reviews & ratings
I have been eating at Hereford Road fairly regularly over the past couple of years and although I have had the odd poor meal, by and large the food has been excellent and the service very acceptable. The dishes are not over elaborate but always tasty and well prepared, often with unusual, but fresh, ingredients. My main complaint, as a regular, is that the only option for potatoes, as a side dish, is boiled. Nevertheless, we keep coming back and nearly always leave highly satisfied.
Good grub Sun Sep 29Rated as: 4/5 -
Had the best table under the sun roof and we arrived before the sun set so we had a nice evening seeing the sky outside slowly turned dark. Food was fabulous though we wanted more exotic food that night and were disappointed to know they do not have duck's hearts that day. Tried their fried calf's brain which was rather yummy, tasted like fried tofu. I loved the mussels cooked in slurping white wine (the first time I had mussels and there's no sand in them!) and a very generous portion too! Surprisingly, the service was tip-top for us even though the reviews before seemed to suggest slow/bad service. This place sure is worth a second visit.

Food was great but nothing to get excited about. service was unbelievably slow and the chefs were very lethargic about everything. £25 :definitely regretted bothering with this place.
chicken drummers Sat Aug 24Rated as: 2/5 -
Food was generally good but the service was terrible. The food came out really slow even when we were the only customers, and the sides we ordered were forgotten.
The manager said he will bring it later but never did, and not even apologetic.
For the price paid, would expect a little more decent service. Would not go back again for the terrible experience.LoveFood Sun Dec 2 2012Rated as: 1/5 -
Absolutely fantastic! Quality ingredients expertly cooked! Consistently delicious!
Wine list could be better but still love the place!Ninai Sat Nov 17 2012Rated as: 5/5 -
Although this place wasn't bad, it was really disappointing as I'd heard such great things about it. Service and environment were fine, but the food was just OK. I was expecting extraordinary. None of our starters, mains or desserts came close to that.
Cyd Thu Jul 12 2012Rated as: 3/5 -
We went as a party of four. We all had wine, starters, mains, sides, sorbet, dessert, cappuccino so our bill was hefty. I mention this because, for what we paid, we thought the service was terrible. Too bad that the merchant doesn't try harder on service because the food was mostly fabulous. Out of the many dishes we ordered among the four of us, only the Wood Pigeon was substandard. It was quite rare but that was ok (tolerable but could have been a bit less bloody), however it was so tough that the knife could not cut through it without major sawing! Again, out of all the dishes, that was the only complaint. Most dishes were outstanding. Too bad that the service is so poor. We went on a Tues night so it wasn't overly crowded.

Last night was the second time I have visited this restaurant and both times I have ordered the belly pork, perhaps to see if it would be as good the second time as it was the first time, it was! It just melted in the mouth, I can honestly say that I have never tasted better. I accompanied this with the house white which was a lovely fruity number and very drinkable. My friend had the rabbit and she assured me that was very good too. Staff were very attentive and pleasant. I will certainly be returning and I may even try something else on the menu - maybe.
Paula Thu Mar 22 2012Rated as: 5/5 -
Superb British food - top notch ingredients, robust and rustic dishes.
JB Mon Jun 13 2011Rated as: 5/5 -
Love the place, location and decor. Food is quite good. Just a warning to people booking online: although the restaurant did not contact me about this, they told me halfway through our meal that because we booked online, we were obliged to give up our table after a certain time, shorter than for normal bookings. Maybe this would not have been an issue except that the service was slow and inattentive, so they were telling us to give up our table at the same time that they were finally bringing round the puddings. Really rude and arrogant, and I assure you it wasn't cheaper just because I booked online.

Genitourinary and Kidney Disorders
Anatomy of the Urinary System
Overview of Genitourinary Disorders
Overview of Kidney Disorders
Online Resources
According to the American Urological Association, about 6 percent of girls and 2 percent of boys will develop urinary tract infections.
Younger children have a greater risk of kidney damage linked to urinary tract infections than older children or adults.
Many diseases of the genitourinary system in children are present when a child is born. This poses unique challenges that are vastly different from adults with kidney disease.
Because the genitourinary system is so complex, involving many systems in the body, a child with a genitourinary disorder may require a number of specialists to participate in his or her care.
The following specialists may be involved in your child's care - pediatric nephrologist; pediatric urologist; pediatrician; pediatric surgeons; transplant surgeons; perinatologist; geneticists; pediatric radiologist; neurodevelopmental specialists; nutritionists; social workers; psychologists; and pediatric nurses.

Hello daaaauling~
I shout…Knockout Gorgeous. Thank you for giving us directions to her beautiful dwelling. I told her after visiting I feel like I should be doing something pretty instead of working in the yard.
Anne, thank you for your treasured comments. I was so excited to receive your first comment and your second. I knew exactly who you were. I am a colossal follower. I feel more like a stalker, actually. I am beginning to understand that "stalker" is actually a suitable term used in blog land…sort of an expression of endearment! We just linger over all the beautiful blogs. I know how staring for more than a few seconds is considered creepy in the outside world. But here…we can linger and stare for hours. What fun!
In pearls and flip-flops we can save the world!

I am doing research about Social Media and SEO Features: and how to create a community. I wrote about this in my website: http://www.dinisguarda.com/post/Social-Media-and-SEO-Features-Creating-a-Community.aspx
As a lot has been written about SEO and Social Media features and about creating a community, I am trying to understand the key points for the total present web performance. Web is Search and Social at the same time and one needs to get in both technical, content and business wise. Working with SEO awareness and Social Media is key in these days and in fact creating a community is a great challenge that requires above anything a big passion for networking and be friend and social with other people. But I would like to hear some input on how to start a community both technologically and business wise. I found the technology side of this task almost one third of the work that needs to be done to have a successfully community. Also the business way of getting in the consersation and listen are key to success and to avoid risk. I would like to hear the opinion of the Econsultancy community on this.
It depends on what the goals of your community are. I'm not sure why the technical aspect is so great in this project - I fear you're going about this the wrong way.
Why are you building a community? Is it to provide a better marketing strategy? To increase awareness of a brand? To increase engagement, or to provide a feedback channel? Once you have your goals in mind, then you can put together a community plan. You can then decide what type of community platform you're going to use. A "me" platform, focussed on the user, like Facebook, with profiles, photos and the like. Or an "us" platform, for reviews, forums etc, like Tripadvisor.
Building a community normally involves 3 stages:
1) Seeding. You should identify those customers/visitors you currently have who are the most engaged and vociferous. You should then invite them personally in on the project. Create a closed community of these users, and use their feedback to develop the functionality of the site.
2) Nurturing. You should then give "invites" to these superusers, so that they can invite their friends, or other customers, to the closed community. THis gives you the opportunity to further refine the experience for new users, check things like load testing, and to add network functionality such as friend lists.
3) Moderating. Once you have an initial community working, you can then open it to the public at large. You can either choose to moderate it yourself, or elect superusers to moderate it for you.
These 3 steps are 99% of the work involved, which is why I don't think the underlying technology should be such an issue. There are many open-source community platforms you could employ as a proof of concept. If you want to do it professionally, I would suggest employing a dedicated "community building" agency, such as FreshNetworks http://www.freshnetworks.com/

In addition to the above, it may also be important to look at what you can and cannot do with a particular sector and country.
Although social media, social marketing and other similar activities may seem straight forward it is important to look at rules which regulate a certain industry, country or sector.
An interesting example, in the case of the US and the UK is the Pharmaceutical sector where doing anything social-media -wise can be very dangerous and hurt you. (http://social.eyeforpharma.com/blogs/denis-kondopoulos/social-media-and-pharma-issues-opportunities-and-solutions)
In simple terms, there is no simple answer or receipe for doing something online in terms of social media. But after reviewing your objectives, methods and other relevant parameters I am sure you will be able to reach a solution or model that will work for you.
I hope the above help.
Hi Mathew and Denis
Thanks a lot for your precious comments and advice.
I agree completly with both of you and that is my main focus at the moment. I understand that as you put it, perfectly, Mathew the "Seeding, Nurturing and Moderating" are key to success. In my case I am working with complex products and services and multi-national goals so the complexity are bigger and the challenges more risky although very rewarding as well (as you Denis mentioned very well)...
Still I am kind of obsessive about social technology / application and how to interact with users and with the "seeding, nurturing and Moderating" inside platforms that are not Facebook or the mainstream ones, in new niche platforms and with conventional websites that include new social features. That was (is) still my concern. The web is getting more complexer than ever and simple traditional SEO work is not enough in some competitive markets and industries and that is why I think international corporations need to develop applications and some technology of their own in order to have their brands and products on the top. Of course this does not mean we forget Facebook, Twitter and other vehicules of utmost importance...
Thanks and kindest regards! the econsultancy community real has precious value!
Social media allows you to connects with businesses, consultants, customers, analysts, and think tanks etc. These people are some what technical in their roles and some how they are all social too.
Social media people feedback and analyst feedback can help community to grow in bith sectors like technical and social. Technically community should be started with latest stuff and broader in sence and businesswise it should allowed people to connect in different groups relating to their business sectors.
Asad Zeeshan
I agree with much of the above, especially identifying what your key reason for doing this. If it is purely to go beyond the search engines eg more than simple SEO and is for marketing, you may find that it is very hard work to nurture that community to get the results that you could possibly get elsewhere for less effort.
Once you have identified your reason, you need to look at who your community are and what they want.
Community=engagement and if you are in a complex, specialised and high-level sector, you may find that those who you want to attract are simply too busy to engage and interact, unless there is core value in it for them. Hence the comment about achieving similar results for less effort. A community that is rarely contributed to will do more harm than good.
For instance, I run a social network for a niche programming language. Whilst it could migrate to a Facebook or Ning type environment, these are geeks we are talking about, and they don't want the community to socialise or talk about their latest gadget, nor post photos etc.
The community wants timely advice on coding issues, in general, or for bug checking etc on specific code. So, it's an email group with an associated fully searchable website/archive and it works brilliantly. It costs nothing to run, shows up on all the search engines because it is the one place that all of these coders visit for answers, so it is content rich.Therefore, I would say don't get distracted by the technology, because often the right solution for the job is not all-singing, all-dancing, nor do many communities need to be.
The original set up, seeding, nurturing and marketing of our community was sponsored by the company behind the language and that sponsorship included a key developer to act as their representative and also to gather feedback and information for themselves. This person is involved on an almost daily basis, and it is his continued presence that has meant the ongoing success of the community. The company pay him rather than giving us direct funding, and that is invaluable in making it the 'place to be'.
The point being that you need a fairly dedicated 'human resource' to make a community work - a champion, if you like. Plus you need to be able to rely on trusted members as moderators, contributors etc who ensure the value is constantly being added. getting those ducks in a row can be harder work to get your website noticed than just creating a content rich website.

http://notes.envato.com/interviews/author-interview-russellbellmusic/Having spent 23 years learning his craft, Russell has finally ventured into professional music for media having played in many working bands in his youth on keyboards and bass guitar cutting his teeth since the tender age of 15 on the London gigging scene. From a humble upright Piano in the back room,using downtime in a pro studio at every given chance,and sound designing 20 years before the definition became a common by word, Russell has left no stone unturned in his quest for a big sound on a realistic budget. Having written for TV for US networks and currently poised to move into the Movie trailer market,Russell has set his sights for the highest rung on the composer ladder and will stop at nothing to get there even if this means living on coffee and inhaling every meal!
Currently signed to Couldb entertainment under the wing of media magnate Ken Parks (former VP for MTV networks),Russell forsees the next 12 months as his most productive and exciting time to date. "There is no reason now with today's technology and networking freedom, why you cannot invite a world of composers and musicians into your virtual living room and attain the sound that several years back would mean big air travel costs,studio days just setting up session and spiralling costs that only a big act can hope to afford.We have entered the most exciting phase in music development and technology and im very proud to be part of this movement"
Russell hopes to engage music for media on a fulltime basis now he has made a good starting impression with 3 sample houses using his vision for product testing and demo work,and several independent film makers already requesting new project collaborations,many TV placements and all this in a matter of months. Recent and upcoming broadcasts of Russells work includes Bar rescue,Swamp Wars and Americas next top model,Project accessory/Runway,Roble chef,Million dollar decorators plus lots more.

Dalton State College's basketball team is off to a hot start with an 8-1 record in its return to the court as the program's signature sport. And even after Friday's 85-61 exhibition loss to Alabama's Jacksonville State, the buzz around the program is growing as the Roadrunners prepare to host Auburn-Montgomery at the trade center Tuesday night.
But a big part of the crowd expected for the game will be there cheering on the visiting Warhawks — or more likely, cheering on a returning hometown product. -

Wilder pleased with Oxford United reaction, but disappointed not to take three points
9:30am Monday 21st October 2013 in U's News By David Pritchard, Chief Sports Reporter covering Oxford United. Follow us on twitter: @oxfordmailoufc. Call me on 01865 425458
CHRIS Wilder was pleased some "harsh words" at half-time provoked Oxford United into a much-needed improvement at Accrington Stanley.
The U's would have gone top of Sky Bet League Two with a victory, but instead shared a goalless draw with the division's bottom club.
A point did not look a bad result after a first half when Accrington were the better side against an out-of-sorts visitors.
Boss Wilder demanded much more from the players during the interval and was happy to see them control the second half, despite failing to take one of a host of opportunities.
The United manager said: "We needed a few harsh words at half-time to get ourselves going.
"We did that and I thought in the second half we were excellent without doing the hardest thing in the game, which is sticking the ball in the back of the net.
"We've dominated the second half. That's all I can ask for in terms of how we go about it and showing a touch of a reaction from half-time."
The result extended United's unbeaten away run in the league to six games, but Wilder admitted the opening 45 minutes fell below what was expected.
"We were just a touch flat in the first half," he said.
"Sometimes that happens in professional sport.
"It's no disgrace to come here and be in a battle.
"We showed we were up for it, but we just needed to get that goal.
"I'm certain if we had got our noses in front we would have gone on to win the game.
"We didn't, but give the opposition some credit.
"They are fighting for their lives and it was a dangerous game because they are due a win."
United were forced into a change when Johnny Mullins injured his right ankle in an awkward fall on the stroke of half-time.
Although the defender returned for the second half, he was replaced by Ryan Williams within two minutes of the restart.
Mullins will be assessed by the club's medical team today, but could be available for tomorrow night's home game against Exeter City.
Wilder said: "I saw no benefits in him playing 45 minutes in the second half.
"He's an important player to us and we don't want to lose him.
"Hopefully we've nipped it in the bud with Johnny and he'll be OK for Tuesday night."
The U's boss also revealed Deane Smalley felt something flare up in a knee during the warm-up, which is why the striker was not brought on.

The second week of testimony began Tuesday in the trial of 66-year-old Geralyn Graham, who is accused of murdering Rilya Wilson.
Deborah Muskelly, a former caseworker for the Department of Children and Families, took the stand Tuesday morning. She testified Tuesday she turned in travel vouchers for face-to-face visits for months after authorities say 4-year-old Wilson went missing in late 2000.
It was later revealed that Muskelly falsified reports about the girl's well-being and that supervisors took little action.
"She said that she was the grandmother. She told me that she was an author. Children's books. She showed me some very beautiful books that she had written," said Muskelly. "She said that she was the grandmother... Told me that her father was the Prime Minister of Nassau."
Through 2000, Muskelly noted that Wilson was quieter at the Graham's home than in her previous foster home. She said she witnessed no affection between Graham and Wilson.
Muskelly said she was surprised to hear that Wilson was missing from Graham's home.
"She faxed me where she was. I said she was with Miss Graham, then he said okay, he was going to get it checked out," said Muskelly. "I think he went and had it checked out and he called me back and said she's not there. And I said it's crazy, she was there the last time I talked to Miss Graham, even the month before."
Defense attorneys highlighted how Muskelly falsified reports.
"You lied on that form," said a defense attorney.
"Yes, I guesstimated. That was wrong," answered Muskelly.
"You didn't guesstimate. You never went there, isn't that correct?" replied the defense attorney.
Muskelly eventually pleaded guilty to misconduct and was placed on probation, and she resigned from the Department of Children and Families. Muskelly testified she spoke by phone with Graham about Rilya but only saw the girl a few times.
Rilya's disappearance wasn't discovered until 2002 and her body was never found.
"I wish I had paid more attention to the telltale signs about what was actually happening," said Muskelly.
Witnesses so far have said they saw possible signs of abuse on the girl but none have testified they saw Graham harm the child. One witness said she was told Rilya was sometimes kept in a large dog cage, but never saw the girl inside it.
Detra Winfield, the woman who prosecutors allege loaned the dog cage to Graham, took the stand Thursday.
Much of Winfield's testimony included her confirming the record of original interviews with detectives after Wilson disappeared. According to prosecutors, Winfield loaned the dog cage to Graham, who planned to confine Wilson inside of it.
"I saw her in timeout but I never saw her in the dog cage," said Winfield.
Later in the trial, two jailhouse snitches are expected to testify that Graham confessed to killing Rilya.
Graham is on trial for first-degree murder, kidnapping and child abuse. She faces life in prison if convicted.
Graham has insisted she did not kill Wilson, who went missing more than a decade ago.

A scary Tuesday at Reagan National Airport
Post photographer Michael Williamson happened to spend Tuesday afternoon on the Potomac River near Reagan National Airport, shooting photographs of arriving and departing planes not long after a close call involving two jets taking off from the airport and one trying to land.

The near-disaster occurred about 2 p.m., and these images were made later in the afternoon from a boat on the Potomac River. There were thunderheads in the late afternoon and early evening and many incoming planes made adjustments because of weather conditions.
