I need to get myself a HD camera and start figuring out how to record workout stuff as well. Should be a fun year! @Chris – I think 2010 is the year of more interactive blogging, as text can be long and tedious to go through, especially if one subscribes to many blogs out there.

Their least expensive system is $38.95 vs. $49.95 Jungle Gym and it's of a better quality (I have both). So if you opt for buying as opposed to DIY I would recommend VPS. No association with them whatsoever. Vegas Pro Straps (google it if interested) are better than Jungle Gym in terms of quality /price patio.

They're just lines connecting dots. And, no (adult) scientist would present graphs like these. Assuming the relationship between heart attacks and fat consumption is linear, the best-fitting model fit to the trimmed data (i.e., without Norway, Holland, and Chile) would be a straight line with an upward slope. Adding in all 22 countries would yield a straight line with a flat slope. In neither case would the line necessarily bisect *any* of the country data points, because the best-fitting line is simply the line that minimizes the sum of the squared distances between the data points and the line. I'm not saying the makers of the video are wrong in pointing out that if you trim countries from your data set, you' can get biased results. But, if you're going to attack someone's science, you shouldn't commit a rookie scientist error like calling something a trend line when it isn't. Great vids — thanks!
