The University of Prishtina is at present the name of two disjoint public universities in Kosovo, sharing the same history up to a point of separation, which took place in 1999. The university was founded in the city of Prishtina 1970 and as result of pervasive ethnic-based polarisation segregated. The two separate, disjoint institutions are using the same name, in Prishtina (Priština) and Mitrovica.
Kosovska Mitrovica
Kosovska Mitrovica is a town in North Kosovo, Serbia. Over 71,601 people live in Kosovska Mitrovica, mostly in the south. The town used to be called Titova Mitrovica. Originally it was named after Saint Dimitrije.
There is the University of Pristina in Kosovska Mitrovica.

Bending
"This article is about the structural behavior. For other meanings see Bending (disambiguation)."
In engineering and mechanics, bending (also known as flexure) characterizes the behavior of a structural element subjected to a lateral load (i.e. at right angles to its length).
A structural element subjected to bending is known as a beam. Stiffness is its ability to resist bending.
A closet rod sagging under the weight of clothes is an example of a beam experiencing bending.
Bending (disambiguation)
Bending can refer to the following:
Torsion
The word means "twisted".
Torsion (mechanics)
In solid mechanics, torsion is the twisting of an object that is result of an applied torque. In circular sections, the resultant shearing stress is perpendicular to the radius.
The shear stress at a point on a shaft is:
"T" is the applied torque, "r" is the distance from the center of rotation, and "J" is the polar moment of inertia.
The angle of twist can be found by using:

Polar moment of inertia
The polar second moment of area (also referred to as "polar moment of inertia") is a measure of an object's ability to resist torsion as a function of its shape. It is one aspect of the linked through the where the planar second moment of area uses a beam's cross-sectional shape to describe its resistance to deformation (bending) when subjected to a force applied in a plane parallel to its neutral axis, the polar second moment of area uses a beam's cross-sectional shape to describe its resistance to deformation (torsion) when a moment (torque) is applied in a plane perpendicular to the beam's neutral axis. While the planar second moment of area is most often denoted by the letter, formula_5, the polar second moment of area is most often denoted by either, formula_6, or the letter, formula_7, in engineering textbooks.
The calculated values for the polar second moment of area are most often used describe a solid or hollow cylindrical shaft's resistance to torsion, as in a vehicle's axle or drive shaft. When applied to non-cylindrical beams or shafts, the calculations for the polar second moment of area becomes erroneous due to warping of the shaft/beam. In these instances, a should be used, where a correctional constant is added to the value's calculation.
The polar second moment of area carries the units of length to the fourth power (formula_8); meters to the fourth power (formula_1) in the metric unit system, and inches to the fourth power (formula_2) in the imperial unit system. The mathematical formula for direct calculation is given as a multiple integral over a shape's area, formula_11, at a distance formula_12 from an arbitrary axis formula_13.
formula_14.
In the most simple form, the polar second moment of area is a summation of the two planar second moments of area, formula_15 and formula_16. Using the Pythagorean theorem, the distance from axis formula_13, formula_12, can be broken into its formula_19 and formula_20 components, and the change in area, formula_21, broken into its formula_19 and formula_20 components, formula_24 and formula_25.
Given the two formulas for the planar second moments of area:
formula_26, and formula_27
The relation to the polar second moment of area can be shown as:
formula_14
formula_29
formula_30
formula_31
In essence, as the magnitude of the polar second moment of area increases (i.e. large object cross-sectional shape), more torque will be required to cause a torsional deflection of the object. However, it must be noted that this does not have any bearing on the torsional rigidity provided to an object by its constituent materials; the polar second moment of area is simply rigidity provided to an object by its shape alone. Torsional rigidity provided by material characteristics is known as the , formula_32. Linking these two components of rigidity, one can calculate the angle of twist of a beam, formula_33, using:
formula_34
Where formula_35 is the applied moment (torque) and formula_36 is the length of the beam. As shown, higher torques and beam lengths lead to higher angular deflections, where higher values for the polar second moment of area, formula_37, and material shear modulus, formula_32, reduces the potential for angular deflections.
Burial
Burial is the act of placing an object or dead body into the ground, specifically a grave.
Human bodies are usually buried in a cemetery. It is common practice in many places to put bodies into a coffin and place the coffin into the grave. The grave is then usually marked with a headstone so that people know who has died and can visit them.
In the past, often during times of war, many bodies have been placed into the same grave without coffins. This is called a "mass burial" or a "mass grave".
Gila monster
The Gila monster () is a venomous desert lizard. The Gila monster’s name comes from the Gila River in Arizona, USA.
The Gila monster is heavy and slow for a lizard. It can grow up to 2 feet(60 cm) long. Its skin looks like beads and is black, pink, orange, and yellow. It looks a lot like the Mexican beaded lizard, which is its closest relative.
The Gila monster can bite quickly and hold on tightly, but it does not kill humans. It usually eats small rodents, young birds and eggs. The lizard chews its prey, injecting its venom (poison) into the animal through teeth in its lower jaw. The Gila monster can also store food in its tail.
In 2005 a medicine to treat diabetes was made from the Gila monster’s saliva. Some people who take it call it "lizard spit" as a joke.
Elizabeth Smart
Elizabeth Ann Smart (born November 3, 1987) is an American woman who was kidnapped when she was 14 from her home in Salt Lake City, Utah on June 5, 2002. She was found alive on March 12, 2003 about 20 miles from her home. She was found with two homeless adults, Brian David Michell and Wanda Barzee. Barzee was Mitchell's legal wife. Police believe that Elizabeth was taken to be Mitchell's second wife.
Smart has put the kidnapping behind her. She is now studying harp at Brigham Young University. She would like to play harp in an orchestra or teach the harp to others. She has appeared on television in support of laws that would give child sex offenders a harsher punishment. She has said very little publicly about her kidnapping. She has also made it clear that she does not want to publicly comment very much about her ordeal.
Bury
Bury is a town in the north of the metropolitan county of Greater Manchester in North West England.
Bury is between Rochdale and Salford; the town is a dormitory town in a northern suburb of Manchester. It is just west of the M66 motorway, and is the largest settlement of the Metropolitan Borough of Bury. It has a population of 60,718.
