The Return of Patrick Nyarko Brings Back D.C. United Offense
Patrick Nyarko is ranked one of the most powerful attackers in Major League Soccer (MLS) in the past decade.
Though he hasn’t been given a spot on the end-of-year all-league team, Nyarko claims he is working for his team, not himself.
- Is this what you mean? I’m not sure of the meaning of this sentence – what is the end-of-year all-league team?; Though he hasn't been considered a spot on the end-of-year all-league team, Nyarko claims he is working for his team, not himself.
Due to a concussion last season, Nyarko remained in the sidelines for six matches.
As a result, United averaged at most one goal per game.
Last week, when United had a 2-1 win over Atlanta, Nyarko was the one who scored the game-winning point.
- Need a comma; Last week when United had a 2-1 win over Atlanta, Nyarko was the one who scored the game-winning point.
His attitude and determination makes him a great player for MLS and his teammates.

Increasing International Airport Security
Rather than banning devices such as laptops and tablets, the U.S. decided to boost the amount of security in international flights.
This means incoming travelers will be subject to a screening process, which will more than likely lead to delays
- Awkward phasing; This means incoming travelers will be subject through a process of screening, which will more than likely lead to delays.
The reasons for the placements of these new measures are past terrorist attacks and the safety of the public.
The U.S. has already banned electronics in a ban that affected flights from eight different major Muslim countries, but adjudicated on not banning them on other international flights.
- Verb tense, awkward phrasing, define what “this” is; The U.S. had already banned electronics that affected flights from eight different major Muslim countries, but adjudicated on not going through with this.
Raising aviation security will hopefully create a more secure environment.

SNYDER: Another helping of Cavs-Warriors? Yes, please
In this season of the NBA playoffs, fans have been complaining about the lack of entertainment: too many blowouts, boring series, and no new winners.
- Don't use "etc..." in writing people want to read the facts. If you have no more facts, just end the sentence. ;In this season of the NBA playoffs, fans have been complaining about the lack of entertainment: too many blowouts, boring series, no new winners, etc.
Then there was a third consecutive NBA Finals match up between the Cavaliers and the Warriors, which everyone had already predicted, seeing as they have six of the top 20 players.
However, people are not looking forward to watching Cavs-Warrior play-offs for the third consecutive time.
Fans argue that competition was way better in the time of Michael Jordan, his team winning 6 straight NBA titles.
- Don't use pronouns, we readers are unsure of who you mean.
Since we can't do anything to change the fate of these two teams, those watching the game will have to wait and be optimistic on the level of entertainment basketball players and teams will give fans in the future.
- A little unclear by saying "left to come", be a little more straight forward about future events; Since we can't do anything to change the fate of these two teams, those watching the game will have to wait and be optimistic on the level of entertainment left to come.

Possible Man-Made Bubble Around The Earth
- Your Title was a copy of the original, plagiarism. The original title and the subtitle could be combined to create a new sentence that tells more about the subject for the topic sentence; We may have accidentally formed a protective bubble around Earth***
Earth Radio waves might have accidentally formed a protective bubble around our planet which could be protecting us from space weather.
- Better to use the subject of VLF in the beginning, "The Navy" by using the Navy, it is clear where the VLF originates from and then is less confusing to read; Very low frequency radio waves can be used to send messages from the Navy to an underwater submarine, and some reach all the way to space. ***
The Navy uses Very Low Frequency radio waves, VLF for short, to send messages to submarines and sometimes these radio waves reach space
- Defining what Van Allen Probes, and other unknown terms, are key to understanding the content of the articles.
A new finding from the Van Allen Probes, two robotic spacecraft being used to study the Van Allen radiation belts that surround Earth, show that these long wavelengths may be forming a bubble protecting our planet's atmosphere.
- Is this sentence necessary? It confuses me because it is not talking about the man-made bubble, or the probes, too much info in a short amount of writing gets confusing to readers. Perhaps just using a definition of the belts from another article would be better; Van Allen radiation belts surround the earth, with charged particles from the sun that could get stuck in the earth's magnetic field.***
A radiation belt is a zone of energetic charged particles, most of which originate from the solar wind that is captured by and held around a planet by that planet's magnetic field.
- So? You need to continue your writing and bring it back to the main topic; During a major geomagnetic storm in 2015, these belts surprisingly didn't come any closer to the earth than the plasmasphere, and the radio signals stopped at the same area where the electron particles stopped passing through,***
During a major geomagnetic storm in 2015, these belts surprisingly didn't come any closer to the earth than the plasmasphere, and the radio signals stopped at the same area where the electron particles stopped passing through, thus hinting that something else might be affecting which may just be this man-made bubble.
The U.S. Air Force is planning on testing the strength of VLF waves from space pollution and storms, and learn more about Earth's new "bubble".
