Three simple things you should know about interpreting linear models

What do the coefficients from linear models actually mean? What does it mean to "control for" another variable. How do I interpret coefficients in the presence of other variables v.s. in a model on their own? What do coefficients mean in a generalized linear model? How do I standerdise data using models? What are offsets, and how do I use them?
