One-time tasks

• Add verbiage to WAPI to indicate that water slowly heats and cools and is thus in kill zone for quite a time.

• Make sure that the {{ArabicPlans}} has been added as the first item under the "Resources" section on each country page for Arabic-speaking countries. (Algeria Bahrain Chad Comoros Djibouti Egypt Eritrea Iraq Israel Jordan Kuwait Lebanon Libya Mauritania Morocco Oman Palestine Qatar SADR Saudi Arabia Somalia Somaliland Sudan Syria Tunisia United Arab Emirates Yemen) This has already been done on may of these country pages. Check Egypt for exact format.

• Tighten up Canning article including some caveats for these issues: "We do not, and cannot recommend these canning procedures, even for fruits. I have never seen any heat penetration work published or referenced to know these procedures take care of target microorganisms for all different fruits and tomatoes. If it was this simple, we would have the same process time for every fruit, even in boiling water. Different foods and packs heat differently while processing in the canner. They are mis-interpreting "all you need is boiling temperature." The goal is not to just bring the syrup to boiling and stop heating. Plus, when syrups or liquids boil out of the jar, you run the risk of lids not sealing, since those surfaces which meet should be clean. Also, we set goals for desirable headspaces and evacuation of air from jars before sealing for good vacuums and quality during storage. Our recommendations do not include solar canning or the description you have provided."
