In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: When the big blasters run out of ammo, you’ll need to keep a smaller sidearm on you to stay in the game. This is when pistol-style shooters come in handy. Tuck a Sidestrike, Cycloneshock or Jolt EX-1 into your waistband and switch over once your primary weapon is spent or experiences an unfortunate but inevitable jam. It may just be the thing that pretend-saves your life!  Make sure you save a few darts for your sidearm. Many of the more compact Nerf blasters only hold between 1-3 darts. These types of blasters are easier to dual-wield, provided you’ve got the means to carry them. Opt for a bow and arrow over a point-and-shoot device in situations where you need to be swift, silent and deadly. Nerf bows shoot long, sleek “arrow” darts impressively long distances with pinpoint accuracy. The original Nerf Bow and Arrow could fire approximately 60 feet (18.3 m), while the cancelled Rebelle Platinum Bow model would have launched arrows up to 100 feet (30.5 m)!  The drawing and firing action of a bow makes significantly less noise than regular blasters, which often click loudly when they shoot. Bow and arrow launchers make excellent choices for snipers. If all else fails, mow down the competition with one of Nerf’s patented weapons of mass destruction like the Vulcan EBF-25 or Rhino-Fire blaster. These guns feature high capacity loaders that hold up to 25 darts apiece and can even be mounted so that you can block off hallways and other strongholds with a torrent of merciless foam mayhem.  Nerf machine guns can shoot at a rate of about one dart per second. Because of their complex designs and the amount of ammunition they require, machine gun models tend to be more expensive. Warlock Axe, Swift Justice, Vigilance, Marauder Longsword, Vendetta Doublesword, Strikeblade and maybe even a custom foam weapon. Add a little variety to your games by having everybody switch to a Nerf sword or battleaxe for close quarters combat. Nerf’s new line of melee weapons are molded from a single piece of soft, sturdy foam that safely allows players to bash each other to their heart’s content. They can be strapped to the player’s back and used in addition to or in place of pistols and other sidearms. Best of all, they never run out of ammo.  Pair a sword with an assault weapon like the Demolisher to become unstoppable in ranged or hand-to-hand combat skirmishes. Come up with your own rules for how swords and axes can be used in battle.
Summary: Keep a sidearm as a backup. Take out enemies stealthily with a bow and arrow. Protect your base at all cost with a machine gun. Consider using “bladed” weapons, some examples are:

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Go online and find a picture of a trophy outline. You can use search terms such as "trophy clip art" or "trophy outline." You can also use a page from a coloring book. Be sure to print the trophy out on regular printer paper.  The trophy needs to be the same size you want your final trophy to be. If you need to, use an image editing program, such as Photoshop or Microsoft Paint, to make it bigger. You will be using graphite on the back of the paper to trace it onto the cardboard. If you don't want to do that, print the trophy out on cardstock to use as a stencil instead. Gold and silver are the most popular trophy colors, but you can make yours any color you want. Apply 1 coat of acrylic craft paint with a synthetic taklon brush, then let it dry, about 10 to 20 minutes. Apply a second coat of paint, and let it dry too.  You only need to paint the front of the trophy, but you need to paint both sides of the semicircle. You can use spray paint too, but be sure to work in a well-ventilated area. Apply the spray paint from 6 to 8 inches (15 to 20 cm) away. Because cardboard is absorbent, you'll probably only need a single coat. You're only limited by your creativity and your materials in this step. Decide what sort of occasion the trophy is for, then decorate it accordingly. Here are some ideas for you:  Write "#1" or "Winner!" on the trophy with a black marker. Turn the trophy into a picture frame by cutting out a square or rectangle, then gluing a photo behind it. Draw designs over the trophy with hot glue, then paint over them using extra paint. This will give you a 3D look. Hot glue beads, buttons, or rhinestones to the trophy. Leave them as they are, or paint them to match the trophy.
Summary: Print out an outline of a trophy. Paint the trophy and base your desired color. Decorate the trophy with paint, markers, or other embellishments.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: One of the best ways to gain experience is to work in an internship while you are studying. Some schools may offer internship programs for undergrads, while other internship programs are for graduate students only. You should try to take advantage of any internship opportunities that you can. As an intern, you will be assigned to one or more mentors in the company where you work. This supervision extends your education while giving you on the job experience. In the profession of working as an equity analyst, there are two primary directions to go. You may choose to be a sell-side analyst or a buy-side analyst. Your work in an internship may help you develop a preference for one or the other. Before you begin applying for jobs, you should at least understand the two types of positions and be aware of the focus for the companies where you apply.  A sell-side analyst often works for a large investment bank. This person’s job generally consists of researching the financial outlook for companies that the bank is considering taking public. You will be charged with deciding which companies have the potential of earning the most money in the future. A buy-side analyst works for mutual fund brokers or financial advisory firms. In this role, you would research companies that are in your employer’s portfolio and other companies that represent profitable investments. A good stock market analyst is not just someone who conducts research. You need to be a “people person” as well. Build up strong personal relationships with people you meet along the way, in your internship or in your classes. These people may be useful in providing references for future job applications or links to job opportunities. For many jobs, the cover letter is merely used as a way to transmit your resume. In the business world, however, your energy and writing skill will be judged right from the beginning. You need to highlight whatever relevant experience you have and express your desire to work hard in this demanding field. Research the company and its past business practices. You will want to be able to speak intelligently about the company and the position your are interviewing for. In addition, you should be prepared to discuss your internship and prior stocks you have researched. A common question, particularly for a position in a top-level company, would be to ask you to discuss one or more particular stocks that you have studied, and explain why you would or would not recommend them to a client. In short, you need to be prepared to be put on the spot just as you would on the job. Through your interview, you need to project enthusiasm as well as intelligence. You need to show that you are able to analyze stocks, make decisions, and communicate your thoughts clearly.
Summary:
Get hands on experience through an internship. Decide on your professional focus. Begin building a network of professional colleagues. Present yourself well with a strong cover letter and resume. Prepare for your hiring interview.
