Faerie Dragon - This Dragon is fairly small, standing only about ten feet at the shoulder. They have only a mildly powerful breath attack which is pure energy, but they are fast and can camouflage with nature when in extreme circumstances and danger.

Dental Patients Positive for Hepatitis, HIV

At least 60 people have tested positive for hepatitis or HIV after visiting an Oklahoma dentist slammed by the state dental board for poor sterilization practices, the Tulsa Health Department said today.

Dr. W. Scott Harrington allegedly re-used needles, a practice that can contaminate ostensibly sterile drugs with dangerous diseases. He is also accused of using rusty equipment that was not properly cleaned.

More than 7,000 patients from Harrington's Tulsa and Owasso clinics were sent letters in late March outlining the risk of infection and steps to obtain free blood testing. Of 3,122 patients tested by county health departments so far, 57 tested positive for hepatitis C, three tested positive for hepatitis B, and at least one tested positive for HIV.

"We understand these first reported test results may be of concern," Tulsa Health Department Director Dr. Bruce Dart said in a statement.

Dentist Allegedly Exposed Patients to HIV, Hepatitis Watch Video Thousands of Oklahoma Dental Patients Possibly Infected With HIV, Hepatitis Watch Video Baby Born With HIV 'Functionally Cured,' Doctors Say Watch Video

The Tulsa and Oklahoma health departments are in the process of notifying patients of the results. Patients who tested positive will be personally contacted, counseled about the disease and directed to resources for care, the agencies said in a statement. Testing may also be recommended for their spouses or partners.

"This is a complex investigation," state epidemiologist Dr. Kristy Bradley said in a statement, stressing that the source of the infections is still under investigation. "The next phase will include more in-depth interviews of persons who test positive to determine the likelihood that their exposure is associated with their dental surgical procedure at the Harrington practice. We will certainly continue to keep the public informed as we learn more."

A surprise inspection of Harrington's practice March 18, prompted by a patient's positive test for HIV and hepatitis C, revealed the use of old needles and rusty instruments, as well the practice of pouring bleach on patients' wounds until they "turned white," according to a complaint filed by the Oklahoma Board of Dentistry.

"The basic things that everyone knows -- follow CDC guidelines, use clean syringes, don't reuse multi-dose vials in multiple patients, don't use rusted equipment -- those are things even non-physicians know," board president Susan Rogers told ABC News at the time. "Those are basic things. That part makes it egregious."

Instruments used for patients who were known to carry an infectious disease were given an extra dip in bleach on top of normal cleaning methods, according to the complaint. But the tools had red-brown rust spots, indicating that they were "porous and cannot be properly sterilized."

Harrington, who has been practicing for more than 30 years, voluntarily surrendered his state dental license and could face criminal charges. A formal hearing before the state dentistry board is scheduled for April 19.

The Tulsa Health Department has set up a hotline at (918) 595-4500 for people with questions.

Small Business News Stories in Perspective - Week of April 12

Here is a recap of key stories and developments this week in small business news ? in case you missed them.

Much of the small business news involves economic and policy issues. ?Big picture issues like Saturday mail delivery not going away after all, the Federal budget, and the use (or misuse) of taxpayer funds were the biggest headlines.

The news in social media, commerce and online marketing was relatively light this week. LinkedIn introduced streamlined search, and the world is still digesting the news about Facebook Home.

More detail is below, as the Small Business Trends Editorial Team puts it all in perspective:

Small Business Operations

Economy, Taxes and Lending

• Banks used public funds to repay bailout debt, not make small business loans - To the cynical this will be no surprise. ?More than half of a government fund designed to increase small business lending was actually used by banks to repay earlier bailout debt. So says a Special Inspector General report.
• California is no longer a friendly place for small business -?A Federal court reversed a tax break meant to encourage entrepreneurship in the state.?California is now retroactively billing small business owners and investors to recoup $120 million. Unhappiness and outrage ensues.
• President Obama offers a budget, but Ryan?s is better for small businesses?-?So says Professor of Entrepreneurial Studies at Case Western Reserve University, Scott Shane. ?You may agree or not. ?Just read the piece first before taking sides.
• Green energy startup at risk: Fisker lays off staff, considers bankruptcy - Investment in entrepreneurship is generally good. But in this case it likely will cost taxpayers $200 million ? with little to show for it.
• When small business lending goes down, so do exports ??Less money, less exporting. Yes, there is a connection, concludes?a research report issued through the SBA Office of Advocacy.
• Crowdfunding is expected to double in 2013 - Bank financing isn?t the only option for small business owners. ?Consider getting smaller dollars from many sources, i.e., ?crowdfunding.?
• Has the Great Recession permanently put a damper on the American consumer? - Now for the ?Debbie Downer? news of the week ?. One study suggests consumers have become more pessimistic ? permanently. ?Let?s hope the study?s wrong.
• 10 small business tax deductions not to ignore - If you?re working at the last minute on your taxes, the SBA reminds us of 10 tax deductions.

Ex-SEC chief Schapiro to join private consultancy firm

(Reuters) - Former U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) chairman Mary Schapiro will join a private consulting firm as a managing director following a tumultuous four years rehabilitating the agency's battered reputation.

Consulting firm Promontory Financial Group LLC spokeswoman Debra Cope on Tuesday confirmed an earlier report by the Wall Street Journal.

Schapiro stepped down as SEC chairman in December.

When Schapiro took over in 2009, the agency was under fire for regulatory blindspots that critics said helped to fuel the financial crisis. It was also lambasted for failing to catch now-convicted Ponzi schemer Bernard Madoff, whose fraud cost investors an estimated $65 billion.

In addition to shoring up the agency's name, Schapiro had to fight numerous other fires - from the 2010 "flash crash" that sent the Dow Jones industrial average tumbling 700 points within minutes to high-profile court losses.

In an interview with the Wall Street Journal, Schapiro said she wouldn't go back to government. "After spending 28 of the last 32 years as a regulator, now was the right time to do something different," she said. (http://link.reuters.com/tuq96t)

Promontory is a strategy, risk management, regulatory, and compliance consulting firm founded in 2001 by Eugene Ludwig, who served as U.S. Comptroller of the Currency under President Clinton.

Sounds of strike ending come from SF Symphony

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) ? The sound of silence from the San Francisco Symphony appeared to be coming to an end as a tentative agreement was reached Sunday to end a 2?-week strike.

The symphony announced in a statement that its negotiators and leaders of the musicians' union have agreed to terms on a 26-month contract, subject to the approval of the full orchestra and the symphony's Board of Governors. No details on the terms would be released before the contract was ratified, the symphony statement said.

Symphony leaders are planning for musicians to return to the stage at Davies Symphony Hall for a series of performances for schoolchildren starting Tuesday, and Thursday and Friday night concerts featuring performances of pieces by Handel and Mozart are back on the schedule, the statement said.

Four local concerts were canceled because of the strike. A four-performance East Coast tour that included stops at Carnegie Hall in New York and the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. was also scrapped.

The musicians' contract expired in February, and the walkout began March 13, after a long dispute with management over the symphony's finances. The musicians sought a greater stake in decision making and more transparency in the symphony's accounting.

Union representatives could not immediately be reached for comment Sunday.

The strike's resolution came much faster than the symphony's last labor stoppage, which led to the cancellation of 43 concerts in 1996 and 1997.

L.A. police ID suspect in girl's abduction case

LOS ANGELES (AP) ? Police said Saturday they are looking for a transient in the kidnapping of a 10-year-old girl who was snatched from her San Fernando Valley home before dawn last week and abandoned hours later in front of a hospital.

Investigators identified 30-year-old Tobias Dustin Summers as a suspect in the case but couldn't elaborate on the motive or what led them to him. Police don't know if the girl was targeted but said they don't believe Summers had a connection to her family.

"We have no information that the family knew this individual or that the individual knew any members of the family," Los Angeles Police Deputy Chief Kirk Albanese said.

About 40 detectives have been working around the clock looking for clues since the girl was abducted from her home Wednesday. She was found hours later, wandering near a Starbucks several miles away.

The girl was barefoot, had bruises and scratches, and wasn't wearing the same clothes she had on when she vanished. She told the police two men she didn't recognize had taken her from her home.

Police initially said they were looking for two suspects, but now are focusing their efforts on locating Summers.

"This is the only person we are looking for right now," Albanese said Saturday.

Investigators have said they believe the girl was driven around the San Fernando Valley in a couple of cars and taken to at least two locations, including a storage facility, before she was released.

A passer-by who recognized her picture from media reports saw her outside the Starbucks and called police. The girl had wandered there from the hospital where she had been dropped.

Summers, who has a distinctive tattoo of a ghoulish face on his right arm, has arrests dating back to 2002, police said. Among them are robbery, grand theft auto, possession of explosives and kidnapping, authorities said.

Police said they had no details on the prior kidnapping case.

Summers was released from prison in July on a petty theft conviction as part of a California law designed to ease crowding in state prisons. He also spent six days behind bars in January on a probation violation.

Summers last checked in with his probation officer at some point earlier this month and had been complying with his release terms, police said. He is known to frequent the area where the kidnapping took place.

The Los Angeles Times reported that law enforcement sources said the girl was sexually assaulted. The Associated Press does not identify victims of sexual assault. Summers isn't a registered sex offender, police said.

Albanese said Summers had been arrested four years ago for investigation of battery that involved child annoyance. Court records show Summers was convicted of battery in September 2009 but the child annoyance charge was either dismissed or not prosecuted.

Summers has family in Southern California, according to police, and the FBI said it will obtain a warrant for unlawful flight to avoid prosecution if the agency determines he has fled the state.
