Q: Your head should be up and your eyes should be on the ball carrier at all times when you're playing defense. Your feet should be shoulder-width apart, with your knees bent and your shoulders back. Ideally, you want to have your back at about 45 degrees relative the ground. This is sometimes referred to as "breakdown" position. While you're working out, practicing hopping into breakdown and "buzzing" your feet, switching your weight between them very quickly, like you're standing on hot coals and you want to get them off. Stay light and mobile, and you'll be in good form. Accelerate toward the ball-carrier as quickly as possible, then slow down when you get without about three yards of the offensive player. If you keep moving at breakneck speed, you'll be out of position and the player will blow right past you. When you get close, slow down and drop into breakdown, relying upon your lateral movements to make the tackle. It'll take some practice to determine the proper angle of pursuit. This depends on the distance between you and the ball carrier and the speed of the ball carrier. If the ball carrier is particularly fast, take a wide angle of pursuit that will allow you to stay between him and your end zone. Bend your knees, get your hips down, and keep your hands back. Maintain an even center of gravity by keeping your feet at least shoulder width apart. Don't flat-foot it, either, keep moving and watch the offensive player's movements. Always keep your head up and your back straight. This position is more balanced and safer. Under no circumstances should you ever lead with your head down, which is extremely dangerous for both you and the ball carrier. Ideally, you want your head to be across the ball carrier's body and in his path. If the ball carrier is going to your left, when you make the tackle he should be on the right side of your head. The opposite is true if he's running to your right. Watch the player's hips closely to tip you off on changes in direction as you close and as you make contact. Proper tackling placement will take the opponent off balance, making him less likely to fall forward for an extra yard or so, which can make all the difference on third down. When the ball carrier is within your reach, push off with your feet as hard as you can and use your legs to drive through your opponent. Drive your lead shoulder into the ball carrier's hips. Keep pushing and driving with your feet until the ball carrier goes down. Pick your knees up high in the driving motion, following through the tackle. As your shoulder pads connect with the ball carrier, wrap him up with your arms just under his butt. This allows you to not only knock him over, but pull to his legs out from under him when you extend through him, resulting in a lower chance of your tackle being broken. It also results in some spectacular, highlight-worthy "hits" where you really don't have to hit very hard, just with good technique. Don't stop driving until the ball carrier is down and the whistle is blown. Good tackles happen because of proper form and hit-placement. Although the NFL highlight reels are filled with spectacular-looking flying tackles and hits that jostle the ball loose, focusing on making that happen every time will make you miss tackles, pure and simple. Stay focused on getting the ball player on the ground, not stripping the ball.  If you're assisting a tackle, go for the ball, trying to get a hand on it and rip in a down-and-out motion. If your teammate clearly has the tackle in hand, you can do some good by going for the ball at that point, but not before. Never leave your feet to make a tackle, and never lead with your head. This is an illegal maneuver and extremely dangerous.
A: Maintain the proper position and tackling form. Close the distance between yourself and the ball carrier. Go into breakdown position and buzz your feet. Watch the hips. Make contact. Wrap up. Don't worry about stripping the ball.

Q: Make sure that your suitcase is completely empty before you begin to clean it. Be sure to check in the pockets and in any removable liners for overlooked items. Some suitcases have liners that can be removed entirely from the rest of the bag, as well as additional storage pockets. Remove these components and set aside. Remove dirt, dust, crumbs, and other small debris from your suitcase by vacuuming the inside. You can use a hand vacuum or a standard vacuum’s hose attachment. Make sure you vacuum within any pockets or liners If the manufacturer’s tag indicates that machine washing is safe, wash it according to the instructions. If the tag is missing or if it says that hand washing is required, fill a sink with warm water and a small amount of mild laundry detergent. Clean the removable components by hand and allow them to air dry. Nylon and other manmade lining can be washed gently with a damp washcloth and mild laundry detergent. If the outside of your suitcase is leather, be very careful not to drip any water on the outside, as this can damage it. Spot-clean the inside with baking soda and water, using an old toothbrush to scrub away stains or dirt. Dry the bag immediately with a hand dryer. Hard plastic can be wiped clean with a damp washcloth and mild soap. Dry your suitcase immediately with a fresh towel to prevent any water marks from forming. Once your suitcase and all of its components are dry, replace any removable liners or storage. If you plan to skip cleaning the outside altogether, or intend to wait before cleaning it, air out your suitcase by allowing it to stand open for at least one day. This prevents the buildup of smells or mildew caused by any remaining moisture. Close the suitcase when you are ready to clean the outside.
A: Remove all the items from your suitcase. Remove any detachable liners or storage. Vacuum the inside. Wash any removable liners or pockets. Wash manmade linings with detergent and water. Spot-clean canvas and linen linings. Wipe off hard plastic linings. Replace the removable components. Air out your suitcase.

Q: Mix together 1/3 cup maple syrup and ½ cup brown sugar. After placing the bacon on your pan, use a pastry brush to coat each slice with the sugar mixture. Continue baking the bacon normally until it reaches the desired level of crispiness.  Cook the candied bacon on a rack for maximum crispiness. Make sure to protect the rack from the sugar mixture with foil or parchment paper. Candied bacon is delicious by itself but is also an excellent addition to sandwiches and breakfast platters. Many delicious dishes can be wrapped in bacon and baked in the oven. For example, make bacon-wrapped cookies by wrapping balls of cookie dough in a piece of bacon before cooking. Cheese stuffed jalapenos, meatballs, and chicken breasts can also be wrapped in bacon. Keep in mind that the bacon will need fifteen to twenty minutes to cook. Experiment by wrapping both sweet foods and salty foods in bacon. Bacon is good with almost anything! Bake a tray or two of bacon in advance. Then, store the cooked bacon in your refrigerator for seven to ten days. Add bacon to your sandwiches throughout the week or crumble up a few pieces to add to a salad for a flavor boost. Cover the bacon before you store it by using plastic wrap or a storage container with a lid.
A:
Bake candied bacon. Wrap your favorite foods in bacon. Prepare a week’s worth of bacon.
