An incident at the Clarkston High School pool caused six children to be taken to the hospital. The children apparently suffered injuries due to excessive chlorine being poured into the swimming pool by the automated chemical treatment system. The cause is to be believed an electrical blackout that caused the system to malfunction.
The children had complaints of respiratory problems. Fortunately, the children have been released from the hospital and I am hopeful that they fully recover.

Insult to injury: Judge, prosecutor gave Chris Brown disgraceful slap on wrist for beating Rihanna
Out in La-La land, heartthrob singer Chris Brown has gotten a slap on the wrist for pummeling his Grammy-winning girlfriend Rihanna's face into hamburger. They said first-time abusers generally escape jail.
La-La land, where there is now high-visibility legal precedent for the proposition that an initial flurry of punches is virtually free.
Backed by high-priced lawyers and significant fan belief that Rihanna must have been at fault for triggering the assault, Brown had pleaded not guilty. Until Rihanna was about to take the stand. Until the district attorney and Judge Patricia Schnegg agreed to let him off with community service and counseling.
"It's commendable you took responsibility for your conduct," said Schnegg, which passes for truth in a system that never met an A-lister it didn't like.
By letting Brown slide, Schnegg and prosecutors did a disservice to the 4.8 million American women assaulted or raped by their partners every year.
