Interior ballistics is a subfield of ballistics in which there is study of the propulsion of a projectile. In guns internal ballistics covers the time from the propellant's ignition until the projectile exits the gun barrel. The study of internal ballistics is important to designers and users of firearms of all types, from small-bore rifles and pistols, to high-tech artillery.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

16. Safety Action System
Every GLOCK pistol comes with 3 independent safeties:
1. Trigger safety
2. Firing pin safety
3. Drop safety
All three safeties disengage sequentially
as the trigger is pulled.
They automatically reengage when
the trigger is released.
17. Safety Action System
1. Trigger safety
The trigger safety is a lever incorporated into the
trigger. When the trigger safety is in the forward
position it blocks the trigger from moving
rearward. The trigger safety and the trigger must
be fully depressed at the same time to fire the
pistol. If the trigger safety is not depressed, the
trigger will not move rearward and allow the
pistol to fire. The trigger safety is designed to
protect against firing, if the pistol is dropped or
the trigger is subjected to lateral pressure.
18. Safety Action System
2. Firing pin safety
The firing pin safety mechanically blocks the
firing pin from moving forward in the ready-to-
fire condition. As the trigger is pulled rearward,
the trigger bar pushes the firing pin safety up
and frees the firing pin channel. If the user
decides not to fire and releases the trigger, the
firing pin safety automatically reengages.
19. Safety Action System
2. Drop safety
The trigger bar rests on the safety ramp within
the trigger mechanism housing. The trigger bar
engages the rear portion of the firing pin and
prevents the firing pin from moving forward. As
the trigger is pulled rearward the trigger bar
lowers down the safety ramp and allows the
release of the firing pin. After firing, the trigger
bar moves upward and reengages the firing
pin. As the trigger is released, all safeties
automatically reengage.
