The Apollo Hospital located at Keystone #9 at Verne Ring near West Harbor reported yesterday that they treated an unusually high number of concussions and one fractured ankle from visiting high school students from California, USA.  The Hospital put out a warning in the hopes to prevent further students from suffering the same fate.  This week is the climax of the annual International High School Lunar Science Competition that has drawn students here from various schools representing several countries from Earth.  Evidently the students, from multiple schools in California, staying at the Pension Guest House on West Street, decided to have their own physical competition to see who could jump the highest.  And then some tested how far down they could jump from the upper-level balconies without getting hurt.  Unfortunately, the winners all ended up with a visit to the Hospital for treatment. Apollo Hospital reported that 18 minors aged 15 to 17 suffered concussions from hitting balconies, ceilings, and when coming down, landscaping and each other. One youth who was not jumping got banged in the head by a fellow student’s return trip.  There was one fractured ankle and two sprained ankles in the group.  The situation is caused by new arrivals from Earth, who discover they can jump about 3 meters (10 ft) into the air, where on Earth they are lucky to jump over a foot into the air. The trip up and back lasts about 4 seconds.

Our Code of Being

  1. Remember that everyone was born into our solar system in the same manner. Everyone must be treated equally and fairly and with the same respect.
  2. Everyone is entitled to privacy within their own personal living spaces.
  3. One individual’s dangerous behavior is a risk to the lives of all. Everyone is required to pay attention to look for signs of that risk in themselves and others.
  4. No one has the right to inflict physical or mental harm to another.
  5. Acknowledge that we humans have emotions and they trigger conflicts.  We must stay aware of our own emotions and the feelings of those around us.
  6. Everyone must accept that some humans unknowingly do things that annoy other humans.  When confronted by someone who is annoying you, acknowledge it, mention it, and if it doesn’t stop, accept it as part of who that person is.  Then declare to yourself that that is all that it is, and carry on.  
  7. Acknowledge that everyone has strengths and weaknesses and for the sake of progress, allow the collective strengths to combine to move forward.
  8. Extract positive lessons from any past negative experiences; do not let them repeat.  Coming to Seleneca is often cited as a way “to start over.” You must pack light to come here; do the same with your emotional baggage as well. 
  9. Do not attack or challenge someone’s faith or belief system because it is the same as attacking them.  One’s faith is part of his, hers, or their personal recipe for success in life.
  10. Do not use your own faith or belief system as a justification to harm others.
  11. Any perception of harm is defined by the recipient, not by the accused aggressor.  Let the judge or mediator decide on punishment or steps to resolution.
  12. Each day, do not forget to pause, look around, and marvel at the joy and accomplishments of others around you and those that came before you.
