And according to that same source, for 2012, there were 8,974,762 non-fatal accidental injuries from falls
Yes. And that's why building codes are being updated to reduce number of dangerous stairs, mandate friction strips on stairs and so on.
What are we doing about rampant gun violence? Ah yes, we're passing laws freeing gun manufacturers from ANY responsibility.
You seem good at that Hail Hitler thing, you must've had a lot of practice under Putin.
"Hail Ukraine! Hail Heroes" (sometimes translated as "Glory to Ukraine! Glory to Heroes!") sounds for Russian-speaking people _exactly_ as "Sieg Hail!" would sound to American citizens. That was a sign and a countersign in the UPA which was allied with Hitler's Germany and committed such crimes as Volyn' Massacre.
I'm not going to discuss Chechnya here, the crimes or lack thereof of Russia does nothing for the Ukrainian situation.
P.S. That's not a Ukrainian military column masquerading as a medical convoy, it's very clearly a Ukrainian military medical convoy, that's why they have green trucks and red crosses, it's kind of exactly what that means.
And also artillery pieces. I guess they only shoot humanitarian aid.
Note the source- do you really think Israel of all countries full of Jews would defend Ukrainian election results if Ukraine actually voted for Nazis?
Lots of Jewish people in Ukraine condemn results of the elections. So?
Bwahahah. Yes, that's right, RT is a magical press outlet, the only one in the world that just happens to be right. Well at least we're getting somewhere now, at least we're getting to the point that you are after all mindlessly fed propaganda by RT. You realise that defending RT is a bit like defending Fox News or The Daily Mail right?
Yes, in this case RT is the only English-speaking TV outlet that tells the other side of the story. And it's more compelling than what the Western media parrots. Russian media actually has reporters on the ground and they are working in the midst of the fighting and just in recent weeks, several reporters were wounded or killed.
And even Fox News gets their facts right sometimes. However, other news companies are starting to get a clue:

What is "neutron saturation transmutation"?
Nuking it until it glows. First you separate your waste into constituent elements (their oxides, whatever) then you irradiate it with neutrons until most of the medium-level waste transmutes into something with a short enough half-life. You can optimize it a bit by playing with neutron energy to maximize the capture by most problematic isotopes. The size of neutron capture cross-section is not an issue, since you don't need those neutrons to support a chain reaction.
The concept is pretty old, but requires a shitload of neutrons (since you typically need to capture multiple neutrons to transmute a single waste atom). The only practical way to get that much is to use a fast neutron reactor. And even then it's marginal. In future, when we get fusion reactors, fusion neutrons could be used much more economically for that.
