3. Six of the eleven Egyptian students who failed to show up for studies in Montana last month have now been taken into custody 5 or turned themselves in, two of them in Manville, New Jersey 6 on Wednesday, another at Chicago's O'Hare Airport Thursday morning.

4. And in a Columbus, Ohio courtroom on Thursday, a judge set bond for former Ohio State football star Maurice Clarett at five million dollars. He was arrested Wednesday after a chase with police, who say they found four loaded guns in his vehicle.
