Dr. Sanjay Gupta , the Atlanta neurosurgeon who has developed a high profile as CNN's chief medical correspondent, has penned a novel in his spare time. But in true multi-tasker fashion, Gupta has made sure that "Monday Mornings" is more than a book -- it's being turned into a TV pilot. Gupta and TV writer David E. Kelley ("Ally McBeal" and "Boston Legal") are executive producers of the show, "Chelsea General," which focuses on five doctors as they face the realities of having made mistakes, CNN reports.

Sagar Gupta, a senior at River Hill High School who attends the Howard County schools' Academy of Finance, one of the career academies, is one of 20 students nationwide to be chosen for the Citigroup Academy of Finance Scholars program. In addition to the $20,000 scholarship (to be awarded over four years), Gupta, who will attend the University of California, Berkeley this fall as a business and economics major, will receive a paid, renewable summer internship after completing his freshman year at college at a Citigroup business.

A 21-year-old Pasadena man pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter Thursday for shoving a stranger who couldn't swim into the Inner Harbor in 2008 — an act previously characterized by one Baltimore judge as complete stupidity. Wayne Black, who was 18 when he pushed 22-year-old Ankush Gupta into the water and ran, will be sentenced to four years in prison at his sentencing, scheduled for Aug. 30, per an agreement cut with Baltimore Circuit Judge M. Brooke Murdock. His mother dabbed tears from her eyes as the deal was done, while Gupta's friends and family sat stone-faced on the other side of the courtroom.

Rabindra K. "Robbie" Gupta, a retired city planner and Maryland Historical Society security guard who was an expert on Francis Scott Key's original manuscript of "The Star-Spangled Banner" and enjoyed sharing his knowledge with museum visitors, died of a stroke Friday at Union Memorial Hospital. The North Baltimore resident was 70. Mr. Gupta, who was born and raised in New Delhi, was also educated in his native India. "He earned two bachelor's degrees and two master's degrees from universities in India, but the master's he was most proud of was the one in city planning from Harvard University's Graduate School of Design in 1962," said his son, Andrew K. Gupta of Leesburg, Va. Mr. Gupta left India in 1960 to study at Harvard University.

The way the bodies were flying during a hockey encounter between Towson State and Delaware at the Mt. Pleasant Ice Arena last night, it appeared the grand prize for the evening was the Stanley Cup.So even were the teams, the outcome wasn't decided through the first 60 minutes of give and take. Obviously, the top spot of the 10-team Eastern Collegiate Hockey Association was a goal worth attaining.Finally, with more than half of a five-minute overtime gone, Paul Pipke of Delaware gained possession at the blue line and made two tricky moves to get in close and push the puck past Tiger goalie Vikram Gupta for a 3-2 victory.

The ancients of India knew a thing or two about body ornament. No dark and aggressive tattoos for them, thank you. Traditional Indian enhancement is based on pretty and voluptuous painted swirls on hands and feet and today's trendies are jumping on the idea.Mehndi, as the 5,000-year-old art of body painting is called, is gaining adherents from Hollywood to Parkville. Demi Moore, Mira Sorvino, Naomi Campbell, the artist formerly known as Prince and his consort Mayte have appeared at star galas with henna-painted body parts.

Baltimore police said they are investigating the death of a Montgomery County man pulled from the Inner Harbor early Wednesday as suspicious, and detectives are continuing to interview potential witnesses in the case. The man was identified yesterday as Ankush Gupta, 22, who lived in Boyds, near Germantown. A close friend who was with him shortly before he died said the pair and three other friends had stopped at the Inner Harbor on their way back from a day trip to New York City. In an interview yesterday, the 23-year-old friend - who declined to be identified because of concerns about his safety - said he thinks that Gupta was pushed into the water, although he did not see it happen.

Yash P. Gupta, founding dean of the Carey Business School at the Johns Hopkins University, will step down at the end of this academic year to become chief executive officer at SDP Telecom Inc. Gupta has served as dean at the Carey school since it began operations in 2007. He oversaw development of the school's full-time MBA program and its move to the Legg-Mason Tower in Harbor East. "I give all due credit for this significant progress to the first dean of the Carey School, Yash P. Gupta, who has been a tireless evangelist for the school and brought us to this important moment," said Hopkins President Ronald J. Daniels.

When Yash Gupta was dean of the business school at the University of Southern California, "I would get five phone calls a day from different businesses," he says. Entrepreneurs were looking for advice or resources. Start-ups sought interns. Investors wanted ideas. Business leaders wanted to teach. Then he moved to Baltimore. "Not as much" evidence of passionate innovation or business-academic symbiosis here, he says. "We could do better." Gupta, the dean of the Johns Hopkins Carey Business School, is probably being diplomatic.

The Johns Hopkins University board of trustees voted yesterday to approve the appointment of Yash P. Gupta, a veteran leader of three business schools, as inaugural dean of the Carey Business School, which opened in January, officials said. Gupta's goal: to transform a regional, part-time division serving working adults into a "phenomenal, world-class program" that eventually will rank among the nation's brand-name business schools, he said. "He has the imagination, the energy and the skill to build the Carey Business School into one of the nation's most innovative and respected," said Hopkins President William R. Brody in a statement.

Nestled in the shadows of towering apartment and office buildings along a busy stretch of Joppa Road, the salon would be easy to miss if it didn't look like a house that has sprouted from nowhere with its creamy beige vinyl siding and covered porch. Most of the customers who find their way to Usha's Salon and Day Spa in Towson are like 16-year-old Jasmine Osima and her mother, Joan, of Owings Mills. Mother and daughter began making biweekly visits about a year ago after a family friend raved about owner Usha Gupta's increasingly popular use of threading, an ancient facial hair-removal process.

What is it like to be the chief executive of Maryland on any given day? Here's a sample from the "to-do" list: meet with staffers; hold two news conferences on contentious issues up for debate in the General Assembly; end the workday visiting the set of a hit HBO television series. Sagar Gupta, 18, a senior at River Hill High School, got to see a bit of that busy schedule this month as he spent a day shadowing Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. - and Gupta loved every minute of it. On Feb. 2, students shadowed public officials as part of the state's career and technology education program.

PARIS -- Two prominent scientists have cast doubt on the significance of a report that a possible new virus causes an AIDS-like disease.The report, which is being published this month in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences and was submitted by Dr. Sudhir Gupta of the University of California at Irvine, has stirred fear that a potentially fatal human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) may be transmitted from person to person and through the nation's blood supply.Dr. Ludwik Gross, the 88-year-old National Academy of Sciences member from New York who sponsored Dr. Gupta's report in the science academy's proceedings, now questions the wisdom of having done so.Dr.

Mike Bonds was holiday shopping at The Mall in Columbia when he wandered into the Tobacco Leaf, a store selling cigars and other tobacco-related products, looking for stocking-stuffers for his dad. "He and I get together, on the weekends usually, and have a couple of cigars," Bonds said. In particular, he was looking for a cigar known as a limited-edition Partagus 160, which is aged 10 years and is handmade in the Dominican Republic. Bonds had recently read a favorable review of it, he said.

You don't have to be a financial genius to recognize that a $20,000 college scholarship is a good thing. But you do have to be a financial whiz to win the scholarship that River Hill High School senior Sagar Gupta has received - the Citigroup Academy of Finance Scholarship. Each year, 20 students from across the country win the scholarship. And for the past five years, one of those students has been from River Hill High School. That tradition is being continued this year by Gupta, who will use the money to offset the costs of attending the University of California, Berkeley, where he will major in economics and business.
