Author: cezzzSubject: Can Granite be sealed against acidic liquids?Posted: 08 Dec 2009 at 4:10pmGranite is a solid natural element that normally does not stain easily.However, with extensive and long-term use, the granite used incountertops can eventually succumb to surface staining caused by freshmeat blood or artificial food coloring.To avoid granite countertop stains, follow these simple tips.Seal your granite countertop. Make sure you have yourgranite countertop sealed in very well at least twice a year. Mostgranite countertop manufacturers include sealing in their services, andthey usually sell granite countertops that have already been presealed.It is important to seal granite because if not, its pores can open andabsorb stains faster even if it has been used for a short time only.Ask your granite countertop manufacturer about the granite sealingproducts for home and maintenance use that they sell.Cleanyour granite countertop well. Always clean your granite countertopafter each use especially if you place or cut food like fresh meat andfish on it. The easiest way to clean your granite countertop is to usea neutral cleaner or wipe it down with a mild soap and water solution.Never use a strong detergent or cleanser, or an abrasive sponge orscrub because it can scratch it. You can use a soft cleaning spongedipped in the mild soap and water solution to gently scrub your granitecountertop. Rinse it with water, and dry well using a clean, soft cloth.-

LA Times: A milky white cloud blooms in the Barents Sea, so vast it can be seen from space. It`s not the result of some toxic chemical spill or the sinking of a dairy-filled tanker - it`s the handiwork of millions of microscopic algae, doing what their kind have done for millions of years. The algae, Emiliania huxleyi, somewhat mysteriously produce ultra-thin scales made of chalk that surround their single-celled bodies. While it`s not exactly clear how the scales benefit the algae, scientists say...
Acidic waters dull snails' ability to escape from predatory sea stars

PhysOrg: Ocean acidification makes it harder for sea snails to escape from their sea star predators, according to a study from the University of California, Davis. The findings, published in the journal Proceedings of The Royal Society B, suggest that by disturbing predator-prey interactions, ocean acidification could spur cascading consequences for food web systems in shoreline ecosystems. For instance, black turban snails graze on algae. If more snails are eaten by predators, algae densities could...
