Human Skin Bacteria Have Caner-Fighting Powers

      • Edited for spelling, do not copy the title of the original article; Human Skin Bacteria Have Cancer-Fighting Powers

Certain skin-dwelling microbes may lead to drugs that treat or prevent skin cancer.

      • Don't copy the sentences directly from the article, you need to restate the sentences in your own words.

Chemical makes compound that stops DNA formation in tumor cells.

      • This is not a complete sentence, you do not explain what chemical you are referring to; The bacteria make a chemical compound that stops DNA formation in tumor cells.

Mice slathered with one strain of Staphylococcus epidermidis that makes the compound developed fewer tumors after exposure to damaging ultraviolet radiation compared with those treated with a strain lacking the compound.

      • Again, this is plagiarism, you need to rewrite the information without copying directly from the article.

Staphylococcal species have many bacteria that live on human skin.

      • Good!

A strain of S. epidermidis that made a compound-6-N-hydroxyamninopourine (6-HAP) was discovered from antimicrobial powers of bacteria.

      • Edited for comma and article use; A strain of S. epidermidis that made a compound, 6-N-hydroxyamninopourine (6-HAP), was discovered from the antimicrobial powers of bacteria.

The researchers estimated that 20 percent of the human population have S. epidermidis strains that make 6-HAP on their skin which may prevent skin caner cells, block DNA synthesis in lymphomas cells, and cancerous immune system cells.

      • Edited for spelling; The researchers estimated that 20 percent of the human population have S. epidermidis strains that make 6-HAP on their skin which may prevent skin cancer cells, block DNA synthesis in lymphomas cells, and cancerous immune system cells.

Choosing To Amplify

      • Edited for clarity; Do Tree Crickets Choose to Amplify Their Calls?

Male crickets are known for their calls to attract females especially the tree crickets.

      • Edited for comma use; Male crickets are known for their calls to attract females, especially the tree crickets.

Tree crickets are known for using leaves to amplify their calls.

      • Edited for fluidity, I changed "are known for" since you used that phrase in the sentence before; These tree crickets use leaves as a baffle to amplify their calls.

However, in recent years only very few of these crickets use these leaves to baffle their calls.

      • Edited for fluidity; However, in recent years very few of these crickets have been using this technique.

Scientist have found that when using leaves to maximize their calls, crickets use the perfect size leaves and revamp it to make the perfect call.

      • Edited for subject-verb agreement; Scientists have found that when using leaves to maximize their calls, crickets use the perfect size leaf and revamp it to make the perfect call.

Researchers have discovered that whether to baffle their calls with leaves or not is strictly inherited.

      • Good!

Although tree crickets have the ability to baffle their calls they rarely do so because their pay be a price to pay.

      • Used the wrong form of "there" and edited for spelling; Although tree crickets have the ability to baffle their calls they rarely do so because there may be a price to pay.

Winter Solstice Thanks

      • Edited for clarity; Why We Should Give Thanks for the Winter Solstice

Today marks the first day of Winter in North America and the first day of Summer in South America.

      • You do not need to capitalize the seasons; Today marks the first day of winter in North America and the first day of summer in South America.

The Winter Solstice and the summer Solstice are the longest and shortest days of the year.

      • Edited for capitalization; I would also specify which solstice is the longest and which is the shortest; The winter solstice and the summer solstice are the longest and shortest days of the year.

This is a good opportunity to imagine what a day would look like if we lived on another planet because most planets like Venus can't see the Solstice.

      • Edited for clarity and comma usage; This is a good opportunity to imagine what a day would look like from another planet, because most planets, like Venus, cannot see the solstices.

If the Artic Cirlce didn't begin 66 degrees North of the equator it would effect how much light the Northern hemisphere would recieve during the Winter months.

      • Edited for spelling, word choice, and capitalization; If the Arctic Circle didn't begin 66 degrees north of the Equator it would affect how much light the Northern Hemisphere would receive during the winter months.

Also if the Earth wasn't tilted the Northern hemisphere would have complete darkness during the Winter season.

      • Edited for comma usage; Also, if the Earth wasn't tilted, the Northern Hemisphere would have complete darkness during the winter season.

Since the Earth is tilted we have proper sun light that keeps us warm and alive.

Cloud Storage Concerns

      • Consider being a bit more specific- What concerns? Have they been solved? etc.

Increasingly, individuals are cloud storage services like Google Drive, Dropbox, and Microsoft OneDrive.

      • You need a verb between "are" and "cloud;" Increasingly, individuals are using cloud storage services like Google Drive, Dropbox, and Microsoft OneDrive.

These systems encode each user’s date with a specific encryption key, and most systems keep the key.

      • "Data" not "date;" These systems encode each user’s data with a specific encryption key, and most systems keep the key.

This may seem much more convenient than having users keep the keys themselves, but it is also less secure because these keys may be stolen from the systems and misused without the owners realizing.

      • Good!

The best way to maximize cloud storage activity would be to use authenticated encryption.

      • It would be helpful to explain what authenticated encryption is here.

However, this may limit users from taking advantage of some cloud features such as editing shared documents and searching cloud stored files.

      • Edited for grammar (added a hyphen); However, this may limit users from taking advantage of some cloud features such as editing shared documents and searching cloud-stored files.

For people who don’t want to learn how to program their own tools though, they can try to find a cloud storage service with trustworthy software or use trusted open-source encryption software to encrypt their data before uploading it to cloud.

Satellites to Predict Cholera Outbreak

      • Edited for fluidity; Satellites Predicted Cholera Outbreak in Yemen

A team of scientists successfully predicted a cholera outburst in Yemen through the use of satellite information.

      • Good! The only thing I would add is the date of this event!

Cholera is a waterborne infection that targets intestines and can progress rapidly within hours or days; it mostly occurs in developing countries that suffer from poor sanitation. Collecting ground data for cholera outbreaks can be challenging in chaotic locations such as Yemen, where there’s political instability and people are constantly moving around.

      • Nice!

However, satellites can help scientists collect this date and assess the Cholera risk in Yemen without actually being in the country.

      • Edited for capitalization and spelling; However, satellites can help scientists collect this data and assess the cholera risk in Yemen without actually being in the country.

In conclusion, a team’s successful prediction of a cholera outburst in Yemen made scientists realize that satellite data can accurately determine infectious outbursts.

Cancer-Sniffing Canines

      • Good; I like the alliteration too!

Recent studies have shown that dogs can use their sensitive noses to detect cancer cells by sniffing a person’s breath or urine.

      • Nice!

Cells in general give off volatile organic compounds (VOCs); cancer cells in particular give off a distinct VOC from regular cells, and dogs are able to detect this scent.

      • Edited for comma use; Cells, in general, give off volatile organic compounds (VOCs); cancer cells, in particular, give off a distinct VOC from regular cells, and dogs are able to detect this scent.

      • Edited for word choice and tense; For this reason, researchers proposed that dogs could be trained to be cancer-sniffing wizards.

However, there are many complications with this because dogs do well in engaging situations such as helping law enforcement and guiding search terms in disaster zones, not in sniffing thousands of biological samples. So instead, it has been suggested that dogs can be used to help researchers identify the specific compounds responsible for the distinct VOC from cancer cells.

      • Good!

Nevertheless, researchers are currently deciding on how to put dogs, which are able to sniff cancer cells, into medical use.

Early tests in vide-omics, or the use of genomic (DNA sequence) analysis to in videos, have demonstrated potential for better facial recognition technology.

      • Deleted extra word and added an article; Early tests in vide-omics, or the use of genomic (DNA sequence) analysis in videos, have demonstrated the potential for better facial recognition technology.

Despite its purpose to develop a safer and more secure society, today’s facial recognition system continues to make false matches between suspects of crimes and members of crowds.

      • Good!

Furthermore, they continue to remain limited to specific tasks in relatively controlled environments such as detecting trespass on a given property.

      • Edited to reflect the earlier reference to a "recognition system" as a singular subject and comma use; Furthermore, it continues to remain limited to specific tasks in relatively controlled environments, such as detecting trespass on a given property.

However, researchers have discovered a similarity between genomic analysis and visual surveillance: both require the study of the evolution of a setting over time through the investigations of changes that have occurred in that setting.

Are You Getting Cryptojacked?

      • Good!

In this era of technology, cryptocurrencies are becoming more and more popular.

      • This is good, but I would consider adding an example to make it clear to your audience what you are talking about.

Websites and applications that are so-called “free” to use may now be “cryptojacking” users’ devices. This is an alternative way for these companies to make revenue without bombarding the site or application with advertisements or collecting data.

      • Nice!

This “cryptojacking” involves using a device to generate virtual currencies like Bitcoins.

      • Edited for fluidity; "Cryptojacking" involves using a device to generate virtual currencies like Bitcoins.

This crytpojacking involves “mining” for the currency through the process of solving complex equations and using a device’s energy to do so.

      • Edited for fluidity (try not to repeat phrases); To do so, it uses a device's energy to mine for the currency through the process of solving complex equations.

It was first proposed by Harvard theoretical physicist Bert Halperin, who is now excited to hear the discovery, in the 1960s.

      • Edited for fluidity; It was first proposed in the 1960s by Harvard theoretical physicist Bert Halperin, who is now excited to hear about the discovery.

However, the physicist responsible for the discovery is Peter Abbamonte, a physics professor at the University of Illinois, who worked with graduate students Anshul Kogar and Mindy Rak.

      • Good!

What they discovered was a condensate, meaning that it was a solid, but it is made up of particles called excitons.

      • I think you need to add some information here about how they discovered this because you need that context to understand what it means for them to have discovered a condensate.

These exciton particles are made up of an electron and the space that is left behind when it escapes, which in turn allows the space to act like a particle and attract the electron back. Now that excitonium has been discovered, there is much more research to be done to determine its properties, which may allow researchers to find applications for it.

Now that excitonium has been discovered, there is much more research to be done to determine its properties, which may allow researchers to find applications for it.


Excited for Excitonium!

Excitonium, a new form of matter, has finally been proven to exist after 50 years of research and experiments. It was first proposed in the 1960s by Harvard theoretical physicist Bert Halperin, who is now excited to hear about the discovery. However, the physicist responsible for the discovery is Peter Abbamonte, a physics professor at the University of Illinois, who worked with graduate students Anshul Kogar and Mindy Rak.

      • With this kind of topic you need to be careful to include all the information the reader needs to understand each element of your summary. Overall, you did a good job of this, but there were some areas where you introduced concepts without explaining them. Nice job on your grammar and spelling!

Taking Control of Our Lives

      • You need to be as specific as possible in your headline so I added "what" is taking over our lives; Social Media is Taking Control of Our Lives

Our Biological Clocks Helping Our Hearts

      • This title implies that our biological help our hearts in general, but since the paragraph focuses on open-heart surgery patients, I would include that in the title; Our Biological Clocks Help Open-Heart Surgery Patients

Our bodies have internal clocks, which regulate the circadian rhythm that helps us to function properly, know when to sleep, eat certain foods, and behave in particular ways.

      • It might be helpful here to define "circadian rhythm" to give your readers a more specific understanding of what it means to have an internal clock.

Recently, researchers have discovered that patients who had open-heart surgery in the afternoon were better off than those who had operations in the morning; they had half the risk of a major cardiac event than their morning counterparts.

These findings have been the latest supporting evidence that our biological clocks in play with the time of the day play an important role not only in our daily lives and activities, but also in the effectiveness of various medical treatments.

      • The use of "in play" is a bit confusing and redundant with the later use of "play;" also watch out for excess commas; These findings have been the latest supporting evidence that our biological clocks, along with the time of day, play an important role not only in our daily lives and activities but also in the effectiveness of various medical treatments.

As for the reason behind the better outcomes, gene expression varies throughout the day, causing different outcomes, such as causing a person’s heart to heal quicker and refill it with blood, as well as tissue changes in the body.

      • This is great, but I think you could push your vocabulary a little bit here instead of repeating "causing" and "outcomes;" As for the reason behind the better results, gene expression varies throughout the day, causing different outcomes, such as a person's heart healing quicker and refilling it with blood, as well as tissue changing in the body.

Now, scientists are attempting to test whether this gene expression can be controlled and activated no matter the time of day by manipulating a gene that appears a lot or less during the day.

      • Try and specify what you mean by "a lot or less during the day;" what does the frequency of the gene occurrence have to do with how they will manipulate it?

Hopefully, developing such a process may help open-heart surgery patients.

      • Edited for fluidity; The Chinese might be working toward the creation of technology that the United States has not even attempted to achieve.

China achieving hyperloop China's company may acheive hyperloop system before Ellon Mask does. The China Aerospace Science and Industrial Corporation (CASIC) has announced on August 30 its plans for an intercontinental hyperloop train with a top speed of over 2,300 miles per hour, or Mach For comparison, Elon Musk's initial proposal called for a 745 miles per hour hyperloop to connect Los Angeles to San Francisco. And the current fastest bullet trains, in Germany and China, have top speeds in the range of 180-215 miles per hour. WHich means that china may possibly have ability to hyperloop.
