Insights by design, for design
Observations are made, but insights are born. They emerge not with simple fact finding, but from unexpected connections and new realizations. More than anything, they are shaped by people.
Our insight efforts are always led by experienced strategists and designers who are deeply embedded in the project every step of the way. This enables us to work faster and smarter, while never losing the spirit and integrity of the insights throughout the process.
Powerful insights
The most impactful insights are the ones that unite core truths about the brand itself, its target audience, the competitive landscape, and the broader cultural context.
Consumer Learning
A deep understanding of people underpins all the work we do. Our strategists are trained moderators, with rich experience creating custom-tailored methodologies for each project to deliver just what is needed.
When generating insights that will help brands grow and thrive, we know it is vital to engage consumers who are a cut above — creative, forward-thinkers who can help us get from today to tomorrow.
Working closely with our clients, we carefully craft screeners to ensure we recruit and research with the appropriate group of consumers.
With a network of best-in-class recruiting partners around the globe, we're able to find the best consumers, no matter where they are.
R5: Our home base
While we frequently conduct research across the country and around the world, one of our favorite places is our very own facility in Chicago's West Loop: R5 Chicago.
Located just a few blocks from our Chicago studio, this space offers us the flexibility and freedom to engage consumers in many ways — from traditional groups to station-based co-creation to simulated shopping experiences.

Instant Pot(R) Thanksgiving Dinner
Take the stress out of holiday cooking by turning to this awesome multi-tasking device. The key to getting the roasted flavor is to use a barbeque dry rub, such as the seasoning from Rendezvous in Memphis, Tennessee.
Prick sweet potatoes all over with a fork. Microwave on high until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool until easily handled, about 10 minutes. Peel and mash sweet potatoes in a bowl. Mix in maple syrup. Season with salt.Advertisement
Turn on an electric pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot(R)) and select "Saute" mode. Rub the turkey breast all over with the barbeque seasoning. Add 1/4 cup butter to the pot and allow it to melt and begin to sizzle, about 2 minutes. Place seasoned turkey breast in the pot, skin-side down. Cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Turn off heat.
Melt the remaining 1/4 cup butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add celery and onion; cook until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Add cornbread, pecans, and bacon. Remove from heat; sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of barbeque rub. Stir cornbread dressing gently.
Create 2 rafts out of aluminum foil. Poke a few holes in 1 raft and fill it with the cornbread dressing. Fill the second raft with the mashed sweet potatoes.
Flip browned turkey breast skin-side up. Place cornbread dressing raft on top. Add stock, pouring it slowly over the dressing; it will drip down onto the cooking surface and keep turkey moist. Place the raft of sweet potatoes on top of the dressing.
Seal pressure cooker. Select the "Poultry" setting and set the timer for 30 minutes.
Release pressure naturally according to manufacturer's instructions. Let turkey breast rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve on a platter with cornbread dressing and sweet potatoes.
Cook's Note:
To make the bird extra juicy, brine it the night before cooking.

[PATCH] timer stats: speedups
Make timer-stats have almost zero overhead when enabled in the config but not used. (this way distros can enable it more easily) Also update the documentation about overhead of timer_stats - it was written for the first version which had a global lock and a linear list walk based lookup ;-) Andrew says: And this. Not a bugfix, but trivial and obvious and apparently some distros don't want to enable timer_stats because of the performance issue, but powertop uses timer_stats. Ingo replies: seconded. I have tested this with and without CONFIG_TIMER_STATS, with and without timer_stats collection activated.

I'd guess it is similar to the Laffer Curve debate - nearly anyone who is objective acknowledges & accepts the theory behind the Laffer Curver. However, debate is to be had as it relates to one's location on the curve, or even the slope & shape of the curve. Using a comparison of E vs W Germany as evidence of the impact of gooberment inefficiency & counter-productiveness in today's USandA is akin to the comparison of JFK's tax cuts with theoretical tax cuts today. The marginal thinking seems to be lacking. There just doesn't seem to be much in the article to support the claim that gooberment is the primary grain of sand in the gears of growth or even an explanation of why this is such a problem firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-582368152716771238.post-49178150596269279772016-05-03T20:16:29.268-05:002016-05-03T20:16:29.268-05:00John (or others), do you have any commentary on th...John (or others), do you have any commentary on the extent to which GDP can be relied upon as an indicator of growth?

Their inclusion does not predicate the exclusion of big business. I believe the larger point is, that onerous regulations actually stiffle competition. Start ups and small businesses do not have the resources necessary to navigate the regulatory landscape. This environment actually shields larger or more established businesses from competition, stifling larger economic growth and hurting the consumer.

So this...This seems like a great post, well argued. So this is an AND, not a BUT. I had the good fortune to host Douglas Holtz Eakin to an event at my old shop. He laid out an agenda that seemed very likely to raise the US growth potential. I was quite smitten. But then a colleague reminded me. Those are all great ideas, but the thing is that the Republican party is not the vehicle to deliver them. I realize and admire, Dr. Cochrane, that you free yourself of partisan constraints. Hence AND, not BUT. Still, I think this is a thing. There is really no vehicle for the disinterested pro-market, correct-obvious-market-failure take.

Aside: I liked your admission in that audio that you did not know enough math to be a physics theorist. And yet within economics you are relatively mathematically inclined. Neither good nor bad. Just fun. You should do a piece on what physicists or mathematicians think of the current state of method within economics. Maybe you already have. email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-582368152716771238.post-26169239060859172292016-05-03T13:34:15.311-05:002016-05-03T13:34:15.311-05:00I agree with every word in this op-ed. As an addit...I agree with every word in this op-ed. As an additional illustration of what is wrong (of the many things) in the US, turn to Page A3 of that same print edition of the Wall Street Journal (5/3/16), where Cochrane's column appears: the title of the article is "More Cities Lawyer Up", and the gist of it is given by this paragraph: "The 'affirmative litigation' model [...] has been growing in popularity among municipal legal departments in recent years, amid slow economic recovery and uneven regulatory enforcement at the state and federal level. And because plaintiffs' firms bear the litigation load, cities enjoy only the upside of potential victories and monetary rewards."
There it is. This is heaven for mass tort lawyers, who work the regulatory state to death against private enterprise. Read that article.

But... alas, my comment regarding Cochrane's article is always the same when he writes similar columns or blog entries: Cochrane writes in normative terms, "what should" happen - which is great, and I agree totally. The problem is that in our current political environment, *nothing*, I repeat, *nothing* will be done. Politicians (of all stripes and colors, Reps, Dems, all of them) and bureaucrats get their money anyway, either from lobbyists or cronies, or via taxation from taxpayers. Politicians and bureaucrats *just do not care*, they simply don't. Yes, yes, a few do; Cochrane mentions Paul Ryan - but those are only a small handful out of the 535 in Congress + the President. Just see the FDA decision against a possible drug to treat Duchenne muscular dystrophy (WSJ, 4/28/16).
Yes, we should talk in normative terms - it is always good to remind ourselves of what optimality looks like; but lose all hope of converting it into reality. There are just too many cronies, too many lobbyists, too many political friends, too many donors, too many buddies to be pleased, in order to bring sensible reform into this system. I know Cochrane is an eternal optimist, which is fantastic. I, on the other hand, am much less so. And even less so, when contemplating what the two major political parties are offering as candidates to become President of the United States.Manfred the mamoothhttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-582368152716771238.post-21855897721221164152016-05-03T12:08:55.474-05:002016-05-03T12:08:55.474-05:00Ease of doing business or corruption perceptions ...Ease of doing business or corruption perceptions (http://worldbank.tumblr.com/post/34237253037/transparency-vs-ease-of-doing-business) are very crucial for the Growth and Innovation. I know lots of people in Ukraine who did not start or stopped their businesses because of those restrictions. Sadly, some people who had/have awesome bright ideas and all the potential to put them into action did/do not even consider starting a business in Ukraine, knowing how difficult (and possibly dangerous) it is. Many of those who did get on the top with their businesses do all they can to stay there and do not allow others to enter. I am afraid that it got even more difficult lately. I would certainly join the third camp and support the sometimes painful but in the long-term rewarding actions -- both wrt to the US, or any other nation, or just a single person. Now, I really have to start exercising more.

Ruidoso is an alpine mountain community. Expect twisty roads with steep grades. The weather is unpredictable and changes quickly. Elevation can vary between 6000' to almost 12,000'. Most homes are multi-level with stairs on inclined lots. Expect wildlife to hinder traffic flow. Do not be surprised if the power goes out or when you lose internet or cell phone connection. This is the mountains, and it happens. This is not the big city. Life is easier and slower paced and more wonderful. This is why we come and why we stay. Relax and enjoy your time in paradise.

Bird Lane Apartments
El Cielo Apartments
El Cielo Apartments was acquired in May of 2018 through an off market transaction. DLS began a comprehensive capital improvement program over the ensuing months which culminated in a full lease up and positioning of the property for sale. Upon a sale of the property in June 2019, we achieved a total ROI of 21%.
Upon acquisition, the property's rents were approximately 40% under market, with serious deferred maintenance. We fully repositioned the property and leased it up within 11 months. Upon sale in December 2018, through our aggressive repositioning efforts, we achieved a total ROI of 47%.

To heat, bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes or until they are lightly browned on the top and hot. Serve with lemon.

Churchill: At the Capitol, a silent protest amid the crowd
Forty-four years ago, when Sheila Blasch was 18, she and her family went to Buffalo for her sister's wedding. The family was stopped at a red light when a drunk driver slammed into the back of their car.
The station wagon exploded in flames. Witnesses pulled Blasch, two siblings and her father from the fire, but her mother died in her seat. Blasch spent most of the next two years in a burn-recovery center. Badly scarred, her life was forever changed.
On Thursday, Blasch was where she has often been in recent months. She was standing outside the Assembly Chamber in the Capitol, surrounded by signs and posters decrying abortion. Her quiet protests began when the Legislature was weighing the Reproductive Health Act; she has rarely missed a session day since.
"Even the Smallest Person Can Change the Course of the Future," read one of her signs. "Life is a Human Right," said another.
It isn't entirely accurate to draw a line from the crash to Blasch's activism or to assume that one led directly to the other. The Colonie resident, 61, told me she was opposed to abortion before the accident and can't imagine believing otherwise.
But she also believes the tragedy gave her a perspective others don't........

Prodia the CRO as top 10 Clinical trial Services Companies in APAC-2019prodiathecro
Top 10 Clinical Trial Services Companies in APAC – 2019
he clinical trial industry is going through a rapid transformation driven by the latest technologies and a high volume of data. Initially, clinical trials data were handled using the in-house, home-grown program as the number of patients and tests were small. But later, the surge in clinical trials around the globe resulted in the overflow of data pertaining to new drugs, ailments, and their outcomes being recorded.
In addition, organizations in contract medical device, biotech, pharmaceutical, and research are facing challenges to scale up before their competitors and produce trial data that is more accurate and credible and complies with regulations enforced by drug authorities. Organizations are also worried about the higher prices of conducting a trial and the time it takes to complete it.
In that scenario, Clinical Trial Management Software (CTMS) works as a boon as it streamlines the approach across clinical development programs, which in turn enables
centralization, standardization, efficiency, and cost saving. Moreover, the advanced technologies, like blockchain, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning (ML) have spilled over the clinical trial management landscape, which solution providers are increasingly leveraging to help deliver the best solutions to their clients.
This edition of Pharma Tech Outlook brings you the best clinical trial services companies selected by our distinguished panel comprising CEOs, CIOs, VCs, industry analysts, and Pharma Tech Outlook's editorial board. The list consists of clinical trial services companies that have developed innovative solutions to address the dynamic challenges of clinical trials. The following companies have exhibited extensive business process knowledge, along with integrated and innovative capabilities to handle the unique challenges of the clinical trial space. We present to you 'Top 10 Clinical Trial Services Companies in APAC – 2019.'
Prodia the CRO
Key Person:

Prodia the CRO
Changing the Face of Clinical Studies
large, ethnically diverse, treatment-naïve population coupled with benefits that include advanced and efficient hospital infrastructure, lower trial costs, and support from the government, makes Indonesia a promising location to conduct clinical trials. Headquartered in Indonesia's capital Jakarta is Prodia the CRO, a contract research organization (CRO) that aims to help its clients— biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, and other global CROs—bring new, better medicinal products to a market that continually demands generic medicines. Erizal Sugiono, director of the decade-old firm, says, "Our vision is to become the leading CRO and the most reliable partner in providing drug development services." The company achieves this by providing good clinical practice (GCP) based clinical trial support through its integrated suite of services spanning site management, study document development, clinical trial consulting, clinical trial submission, clinical study monitoring, medical writing, and quality assurance and audit.
Founded in 2008, Prodia is the only CRO in Indonesia that commits to performing site capacity building, which involves finding a suitable site that can support clinical research units (CRU) with good systems, resources, and infrastructure—all of which are vital for a clinical study. "Getting successful result of any clinical trial starts with choosing the right site and managing it efficiently. This is where Prodia's site management organization (SMO) division proves its mettle," adds Sugiono. The SMO division aids sponsors and principal investigators in managing the site with services that include feasibility study, development and management of CRUs, provision of site staff, training, and subject recruitment. The SMO also supports these sites to have good compliance with ICH- GCP protocols and other regulations. CROs that choose Prodia as their partner to conduct clinical trials gain advantages that encompass access to an established network of nation-wide hospitals and clinicians, provision of dedicated and highly qualified site staff that aid in carrying out effective and efficient study conduct, expert trainers in clinical trial training, and commitment to confidentiality and quality.
In addition to site capacity building, Prodia offers manual and eClinical trial management. Furthermore, in collaboration with Indonesia Association of Study Medicinals (IASMED), the company also provides GCP training as well as training on protocol development, manuscript writing, and study coordination.
Prodia also has a sister company called Prodia Laboratory, in collaboration with which it offers laboratory test services for clinical trials. The services include routine tests such as hematology and coagulation, chemistry, immune-serology, microbiology, biomolecular (including next generation sequencing and metabolomic), and other specialized on- demand laboratory tests. "Today, Prodia laboratory is the only laboratory in Indonesia with CAP certification to provide research purpose testing by the esoteric lab," asserts Sugiono.
For over the last ten years now, through its wide range of integrated services, Prodia has helped numerous clients mitigate site activation, study preparation, approval submission, and other related challenges. "We are committed to providing the best services to our clients, no matter the situation and circumstance. That is one of the reasons why we have several repetitive clients that continue to partner with us," explains Sugiono. Substantiating this aspect of the company is a testimony from a client in Japan: "Although we conducted the trial at a facility that lacked the necessary resources and requirements, Prodia's clinical research associates helped us seamlessly manage the entire study. We appreciate it so much."
Moving forward, the company will continue to provide its customers in GCP trials with competitive cost, firm timelines, and high compliance to ICH-GCP guidelines. "We are currently working on the implementation of e-CRF, an electronic case report for clinical studies," mentions Sugiono. With deep-seated industry experience and global expertise, offering services at a competitive price, Prodia has certainly achieved its objective of being the leading reliable partner to conduct clinical studies in Indonesia.

In this changing world, peoples are often challenged with problems that require the use of scientific information so that they are able to make informed decisions. However, the study of physics is entangled with many problems including the belief that it is a male domain and the way it is presented to students. The purpose of this study therefore, was to explore the role of Problem Based Learning (PBL) by applying five step problem solving strategy in enhancing conceptual understanding of female students. The study was conducted in Bonga College of teacher education, Ethiopia. To achieve the goal of the study, pedagogical experiment was applied. Data were collected using conceptual understanding inventory test and questionnaire. There was a mean difference between comparison and experimental groups. The difference was statistically significant with large effect size. Students in the experimental group shows good motivation towards the strategy. Based on the findings, it was suggested to apply the five step problem solving strategy at college and tertiary level. Because, this strategy was helpful for students to scrutinize the connection between theory and practice, improves their motivation to learn, and eradicates rote memorization. It also helps to understand concepts and principles central to physics.

LACONIA – Screening his film "Intelligent Lives" in Laconia tomorrow evening is especially fitting to filmmaker Dan Habib, given that the state once warehoused thousands of people with intellectual disabilities at the former Laconia State School.
"Laconia's a very appropriate place to show this film because of the institution that was there," Habib said in a telephone interview. "I know that people at the time – both families and professionals – probably thought they were doing the right thing. But looking back, it was systemic segregation and, in many cases, abuse of people with disabilities."
The film – which follows the lives of three people who strive for acceptance in school, college and relationships – will be shown at the Belknap Mill as the centerpiece of an evening that will highlight the abilities of people with intellectual challenges. Academy Award-winning actor Chris Cooper is the film's narrator.
For Belknap Mill Executive Director Karen Prior, the State School connection was incidental.
"I don't think it was intentional that we put together this screening because of that," she said in an interview. "I think the fact that there's a large discussion happening around the State School right now is timely. It wasn't intentional, but it's timely."
The evening will start at 5 p.m. with a reception built around the artwork of people with intellectual disabilities. Organized by the mill's artist-in-residence, Larry Frates, Prior said the theme of "Artistic Lives" dovetailed perfectly with the film "Intelligent Lives."
The screening of the film, at 6 p.m., will be followed by remarks from Habib and Sen. Maggie Hassan, and a panel discussion about the topics covered by the film.
"It really was true serendipity," Prior said of the way the evening came together with the support of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation, Lakes Region Community Services, New Hampshire Vocational Rehabilitation, and Larry Frates Creates.
A recurring theme
This is Habib's eighth film, and championing people with disabilities has been a recurring theme.
"People with intellectual disabilities are THE most segregated group of Americans, bar none," Habib said. "Only 17 percent of students with intellectual disability are included in regular education. Only 40 percent will graduate with a regular high school diploma. And then only 15 percent will be employed. I defy anybody to show me a group of Americans that have lower outcomes than any of those areas."
And yet, said Habib, they are capable of so much more, which is the film's central theme.
"The film shows a different way that we can proceed as a society to include more people with intellectual disabilities in all aspects of life," he said.
"We show, through the film, that people have a very narrow view of what it means to be intelligent."
A big driver of the low expectations society has historically had for people with intellectual disabilities is the standard IQ test, Habib believes.
"It's a big driver," he said. "The film shows how IQ testing in our country's history led to some horrible actions against people with disabilities, including, as you well know in Laconia, the mass institutionalization of people with intellectual disabilities."
In addition to institutionalization, he said, "In this country we forcibly sterilized 60,000 people largely because of how they scored on IQ tests."
The Laconia State School – which operated from 1901 to 1991 – was one of the places where such forced sterilization took place.
"That's our history and we need to own up to that and we need to understand how the IQ test and other narrow definitions of intelligence continue to the very present day, continue to segregate people in education and employment and in other aspects of life," Habib said.
Recalibrating expectations
Habib, a filmmaker-in-residence at the University of New Hampshire, said he wants those who see the film to recalibrate their expectations of what people with intellectual disabilities can accomplish.
"How do we understand that there are so many ways that people with disabilities can succeed in K-12 school, in higher education and employment."
Jennifer Sottak sees that success in her role as one of the student services coordinator of the Laconia School District. She will be one of the panelists talking about the themes of the film after the screening, along with student Laura Davies, Jaime Laurent, the campus accessibility coordinator at Lakes Region Community College, and Becky Bryant from Lakes Region Community Services.
Sottak said the film resonates with what she does on a daily basis overseeing student services at Laconia High School and two of the district's three elementary schools.
"I have seen the pendulum shift and the focus for students who have those cognitive disabilities, as soon as they enter high school we really are planning for what's the next step," she said. "We have a lot of programming outside the school getting students some work opportunities and different experiences in their community."
The Laconia State School connection is also not lost on Sottak, whose mother worked there for 30 years and was one of the last people to leave when they closed the doors.
Sottak credits people and businesses in the community for their willingness to give people with intellectual challenges a chance to succeed.
"I feel like every 5-10 years there's a nice big shift that really changes the trajectory of how people look at young adults or adults with intellectual disabilities, and what they're capable of. And they're capable of great things," Sottak said.
Habib believes those who watch the film will come away feeling the same way.
"I think people will leave this screening with much higher expectations," he said.

How to Stream Hotstar from Outside India in 2019
Hotstar is heaven for any Bollywood buff, die-hard cricket fan, or Indian expat looking to catch up with their favorite TV shows from back home. However, if you're located outside India, streaming all that great Indian content is going to be a bit of a challenge.
Hotstar uses geolocation technology to block viewers outside India – but don't worry. There's a quick and easy solution.
With the right VPN, you can connect to an Indian server that can grant you unrestricted access to Hotstar from anywhere in the world.
If you have a premium Hotstar account, you'll be able to enjoy its full catalog – including popular Western shows like This Is Us and Modern Family. But if not, Hotstar offers an impressive catalog of shows and movies free of charge.
Best VPNs for Hotstar
- NordVPN is our overall #1 VPN, especially for streaming
- ExpressVPN boasts lightning speeds for premium viewing
- CyberGhost has dedicated servers for the best streaming experience
Quick Guide: How to Watch Hotstar from Anywhere
You can watch Hotstar from anywhere in the world in just three easy steps.
- Choose a VPN with high speeds and unlimited data – NordVPNis our #1 choice!
- Connect to a server in India.
- Head over to Hotstar, log in, and enjoy!
Why You Need a VPN to Watch Hotstar
Just like Netflix and Hulu, Hotstar uses your device's IP address to find your location. If you're trying to stream Hotstar from outside of India, you'll be met with an error message:
Uh-oh, we cannot playback due to geographic restrictions. Disable VPN if it's accidentally turned on.
The easiest and most secure way to bypass geoblocks is to use a VPN. VPNs connect your device to a remote server in the location of your choice, masking your IP address to make it look like you're accessing the internet from another location.
To watch Hotstar from anywhere in the world, all you need to do is connect to a high-speed server in India, and you'll be ready to go!
In fact, when you use a VPN, you'll be able to unlock any geoblocked content you like – including Netflix, Hulu, and HBO Go.
VPNs also encrypt your data, protecting your personal information from online threats like hackers and spies. Your data will be virtually unreadable, so nobody will be able to see what you're watching online, including your ISP and government censorship bodies.
Choosing the right VPN is crucial to secure, fast, and anonymous internet access. When you choose a VPN for Hotstar, look for providers that offer unlimited bandwidth and high-speed servers in India – after all, there's nothing worse than sitting around in silence while your stream buffers!
Hotstar uses anti-VPN technology to compare your IP address with a list of known VPN servers, and if it finds a match, you won't be able to watch your stream. Luckily, there are a few premium VPNs that can bypass VPN blocks by regularly refreshing their servers' IPs to avoid detection.
Your VPN will also need to offer apps for all of your devices, and if you're looking to keep the whole household entertained, keep an eye for services that offer multiple simultaneous connections, too.
In terms of your online security and privacy, your VPN should offer 256-bit encryption, a strict no-logs policy, and an automatic kill switch to prevent unprotected data from leaving your network in the rare event that your VPN connection fails.
Why Not Just Use Hotstar USA?
Hotstar also offers a US version of its streaming service for viewers who live in the states – but that isn't as convenient as it sounds. There are several advantages to using a VPN to access Hotstar India even if you're in the US – like saving a lot of money on subscription fees!
Hotstar India is available for a fraction of the price of its US counterpart, and it even offers some shows and movies free of charge! Although it primarily features Indian TV shows and movies, it also offers a lot of Western content, like This is Us and Modern Family.
It also offers a 7-day money-back guarantee – but if you change your mind once you've signed up to the US version, you won't be getting your money back.

Valerie Miller-Schmertz and Grace Miller have a lot in common. Both have similar voices and have the same quick sense of humor. The two, who are from Marietta, even answered "yes" in unison when asked if they're close.
This fall, both mother and daughter are starting school together as students at the University of Georgia.
Their journey to become classmates at UGA actually began at a different school. It was 18 years ago when Miller-Schmertz was moving into her dorm at Georgia State University in Atlanta, four months pregnant with Grace, her first child.
It took Miller-Schmertz eight years to complete her undergraduate degree in psychology at GSU. She was a single parent and worked part-time jobs which allowed her to bring Grace to work. Miller-Schmertz even toted her along for night classes.
Sharing the journey
In 2018, Miller-Schmertz decided to go back to school for her master's degree in social work and applied to UGA on a whim. She started last fall, around the time Grace was beginning her senior year of high school and getting ready to apply to colleges, primarily in the Northeast and Midwest.
However, when Grace was waitlisted at her top-choice school, she began considering her other options more seriously, including the prospect of going to UGA.
The cost of out-of-state tuition worried Miller-Schmertz. But after applying to several colleges in other parts of the country, Grace came around to the prospect of becoming a Bulldog and eventually put down a deposit for a space at UGA.
"Obviously, I love her and want to be around her constantly, but I have to restrain from acting like that," Miller-Schmertz said. "I never thought she would choose the same place."
Although Miller-Schmertz didn't plan to go to school with her daughter, the idea doesn't bother Grace.
"It somehow just seemed normal to me," Grace said. "Not like normal for any parent, but normal for my mom to be at my school once a week."
"I want her to grow, experience life and develop her own boundaries and habits."
Valerie Miller-Schmertz, mother
It helps they have an open and honest relationship. With Miller-Schmertz's background in psychology, Grace feels communication has always been an important part of their family dynamic. She also said her mom has good parental instincts and will know when she needs space.
Negar Fani, Miller-Schmertz's best friend and an assistant professor at Emory University in the department of psychiatry and behavioral sciences, recognizes and admires her parenting skills.
"It's been an incredible thing to share about her journey as a young mother and to see her parenting Grace growing up," Fani said. "I'm just proud of Valerie and I'm proud of Grace and I just love that they're sharing this journey together."
Miller-Schmertz's husband and Grace's stepfather, Stefan Schmertz, has been in Grace's life since she was 6 years old. He met Miller-Schmertz while attending GSU. Schmertz thinks her time at GSU as a single parent is why the mother-daughter duo are so close now.
"They were kind of all each other had with Valerie being a single mom for a long time," Schmertz said.
Next phase
The mother-daughter duo have made tentative plans to get lunch together on Mondays, the one day Miller-Schmertz commutes from Marietta, to Athens for class. However, she told Grace she'll understand if that doesn't end up happening regularly.
Grace admits that, in the end, she might end up needing visits from her mom more than her mom might need them. But one clear boundary is being made — Miller-Schmertz won't be staying in Grace's dorm room.
Miller-Schmertz understands Grace might end up experimenting and making mistakes in college, but she isn't going to hang around campus trying to prevent her daughter from living an independent life.
"For me, I want her to grow, experience life and develop her own boundaries and habits," Miller-Schmertz said. "It's her choice and her body and her life, and I will be here to hopefully inspire that assessment."
As the beginning of classes for the semester approaches, so does the next phase of the mother-daughter relationship.
"They've been so close throughout their life and they've had a special journey together," Schmertz said. "It feels really fitting for them to have this year together. That's just a neat part of their story."

Aloha Beaches... I drew illustrated this Volkswagen bus and wanted to create a cool beach-style t-shirt. I added some custom type using MixRedux and Beverly from Creative Market.

While I was revamping my personal logo, I drew a pencil and sharpie. I thought it might be cool to add a few more designer tools. Pretty soon I had about five office supplies drawn and thought it might look fun in a pattern, and... here we are.
The pattern features a tileable vector-illustrated, flat design look. The pattern is repeatable and easy to scale.
Logo Design: The Amityville Horror Logo
I wanted to design something fun for Halloween - so I picked some classic movies to develop fun logos based on the movies. I liked the Amityville Horror logo in particular and decided to add it to the site.
I thought how horrible it would be to be the realtor for that house, or in that town. I'm sure they hear about it daily from visitors. I thought it would be funny to mock up a brand for an Amityville Horror Realty with the slogan "Views to Kill For." Check it out below or download the Amityville Horror Logo (Royalty Free but Attribution Appreciated).
And for those of you who are too young or don't know, you can read more about the Amityville Horror and the alleged true story behind it - the one without Ryan Reynolds.
