Problem: Article: If you don't get the canister cold enough, the ice cream will not thicken properly. Plan ahead, and get that canister into the freezer before you plan to have ice cream. Crack the egg yolks into a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Add the sugar and corn syrup, then whisk everything together.  Save the egg whites for another recipe, such as meringue. Corn syrup helps thicken ice cream without making it overly sweet. Pour all of the cream into the egg yolk mixture, then add 1¼ cups (300 milliliters) of the evaporated milk. Stir everything together once more. Pour the remaining ¼ cup (60 milliliters) of evaporated milk into a small bowl. Add the arrowroot powder, then stir until it become thick and free of lumps. Set this aside for later. Set the saucepan onto the stove and turn the heat up to medium-low. Cook the mixture, stirring often with a whisk. It is ready when it reaches 170 °F (77 °C). If you don't have a thermometer, check the texture instead. It should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. This process will take about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the burner. Add the thickened evaporated milk, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir the mixture until everything is combined and the texture is consistent. Set a fine-mesh strainer over a bowl. Pour the custard into the bowl, then discard any solids caught in the strainer. Cover and chill the custard in an ice bath for 4 hours, or overnight in the fridge. The timing for New England style ice cream is tricky. You need churn the ice cream long until it gets a firm, soft-serve consistency. If you press a spoon into the ice cream, it should leave an impression. Pour the ice cream base into a wide, flat container, such as a baking pan. Cover it tightly with plastic wrap, then place it into the freezer. The best place for ice cream is on the bottom shelf, towards the back. Once the ice cream is frozen solid, you can scoop it out into a serving bowl, then add mix-ins, such as chocolate syrup, caramel sauce, chocolate chips, etc. Do not peek into the freezer while the ice cream is freezing. This will alter the temperature inside the freezer and create ice crystals in the ice cream.
Summary: Freeze the canister of your ice cream maker the day before. Mix together the egg yolks, sugar, and corn syrup. Stir in the cream and part of the evaporated milk. Combine the rest of the evaporated milk with arrowroot in a separate bowl. Cook the egg yolk mixture until it thickens. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Strain and chill the custard mixture. Churn the ice cream until it gets a firm, soft-serve consistency. Transfer the ice cream into a flat container, then put it into the freezer. Freeze the ice cream for at least 6 hours before serving it.

Problem: Article: Spy software is installed on a smartphone without the user's knowledge. It can then send back GPS location, phone conversations, text messages and more. It is incredibly unlikely that your phone has spy software installed on it by a malicious party, but these steps will help you make sure. Is your phone acting oddly? Is it lighting up when you're not using it, shutting down randomly, or making beeping noises? All phones will act oddly sometimes, but if this behavior is consistent then you may have spy software installed. Many spy programs will increase the drain on your battery. It can be difficult to notice, especially since your phone's battery will naturally become less efficient over time. Look for dramatic shifts in battery life, as these will be more indicative of a program draining it. A lot of times, background noise is a natural by-product of low-quality cellular service, but if you consistently hear static, clicking, and beeping noises during conversations they could potentially be signs of recording software. This is because some call recording software acts like a conference call. Many spy programs are controlled remotely via coded texts. When the program is not functioning properly, these texts may appear in your inbox. If you are receiving texts with random collections of letters and numbers, your phone may be infected with spy software. Many spy programs, especially cheaper ones, will use your service's data plan to send out the information that it collected. Use a data management app to track what apps are using data and how much they are using. If you are sending out data that you cannot account for, you may have spy software installed. If you are using an iPhone, the only way to have spy software installed is if your phone has been jailbroken. Look for the Installer, Cydia, or Icy apps on your Home screens. If you see any of these apps or apps that were installed from sources other than the Apple App Store, then your phone has been jailbroken and spy software may have been installed. You can easily revert a jailbreak by restoring your iPhone. This will remove all apps that rely on the phone being jailbroken, which means all spy programs will be disabled. See this guide for detailed instructions on restoring your iPhone. If you feel like your conversations are being monitored by someone you know, one way to trap them is to deliberately spread misinformation. Call a trusted friend and tell them something believable but false, either about your schedule, your life, or anything else. If you later discover that people you know have come into this information, you'll know that someone was listening in.
Summary: Understand how spy software works. Check your phone's behavior. Monitor your battery. Check for background noise during calls. Look for strange texts. Check your data usage. Check for a jailbreak. Use misdirection.

Problem: Article: Applying a tourniquet increases the amount of blood in the vein to make them stand out more. The tourniquet should not be so tight that it cuts off the circulation.  The tourniquet should be put on the arm about four inches above the vein. A blood pressure cuff that is inflated to 40–60 mm Hg also works well. Warmth will make the patient's veins dilate and expand, making them easier to see. Contrary to popular culture, you should palpate the arm, rather than slapping it. Slapping the skin is poor technique that may result in a hematoma. Use your index finger to look for a vein, which feels soft and spongy. Don't use your thumb, as it contains its own pulse.  The warm pack or water bottle should be put on the area before it is disinfected. Nothing more should touch the area after it is disinfected. Do not apply the warm pack or water bottle directly to the skin. Wrap it in a thin towel to prevent burns. If it hurts, it is too hot. Many people have needle phobias and nervousness and apprehension is a normal response. Stress not only makes the veins hard to hit, but it could also negatively affect the test results (particularly for biochemistry panels). Reassure your patient and explain that the pain is very brief and minor.  Tell your patient to try visualization and deep breathing. Observe your patient and have them lie down on their back if you think they might faint. This will improve the blood flow to their head. It also reduces their chances of falling and injuring themselves if they do pass out.
Summary:
Make sure your tourniquet has been applied properly. Put a warm pack or water bottle over the area. Use proper palpation techniques. Tell the patient to relax.
