(CBS News) ISLAMABAD - A senior Pakistani intelligence official told CBS News that two people were in custody Friday for suspected links to the shooting of Malala Yousufzai, the 14-year-old girl whose brave stand against the Taliban has left her in critical condition in a military hospital.

One of the two men arrested was described as an important suspect, but the official would not say whether he was believed to have been the gunman who singled Malala out as she rode home from school earlier this week and shot her twice at close range.

CBS News correspondent Elizabeth Palmer reported that Malala, who campaigned for years for girls' right to an education in spite of threats from the Islamic extremist group, remained unconscious and on ventilator Friday. Her condition was described as stable but still critical.

A close friend of family, meanwhile, told CBS News that doctors had given Malala's family a "ray of hope" after seeing MRI scans that showed a bullet entered her skull but did not appear to have caused significant damage to vital parts of the brain.

The woman, who spoke Thursday night with another family friend who is with Malala at the military hospital in Rawalpindi, said the bullet then passed down into the teenager's chest cavity and became lodged near her spine. That bullet was removed by doctors in Peshawar, in Pakistan's north, before Malala was transported Thursday to the more sophisticated facility in Rawalpindi, near the capital, Islamabad.

Doctors in Rawalpindi had removed a piece of Malala's skull to relive pressure from swelling, Palmer reported.

The neurosurgeon who operated on Malala in Peshawar said Thursday that there had been damage to her brain. The level of damage sustained in the shooting - and Malala's prospects for recovery - were still unclear on Friday. The next day or so were said to be critical.

The family friend told CBS News that a second girl seriously wounded by the gunman was still in intensive care in Peshawar, but doctors had said she appeared to be out of immediate danger.

Malala's story has galvanized an outpouring of support in Pakistan and around the country. Prayers have been held in mosques and schools across Pakistan, and there have been some small demonstrations against the shooting.

The Taliban quickly claimed responsibility for the attack in Pakistan's picturesque northwestern Swat Valley, saying Malala was guilty of "obscenity" for her demands that girls have equal access to school.

Taliban militants once ruled Swat, but were forced out by the Pakistani army in a 2009 offensive.

Question by Shouse: What is the new "Calvin Johnson" rule in the NFL? I've been hearing a lot about this "Calvin Johnson" rule in the NFL after Bengals TE Jermaine Gresham caught a TD pass, but was ruled an Incomplete pass, which is absolute BS!!! But what exactly IS the rule? What does it say? Best answer for What is the new "Calvin Johnson" rule in the NFL?:

Answer by substance_911
The 'Calvin Johnson Rule' is not an actual rule, but rather a clarification regarding catches made in the end zone. The rule states that a receiver must maintain possession of the ball in the end zone at all times, even after hitting the ground. The idea behind the 'Calvin Johnson Rule' came to light during Week 1 of last season when the Lions' Calvin Johnson caught and secured possession of the ball in the end zone with both of his feet touching and in bounds. However, following the catch, Johnson fell to the ground and the ball popped out when his hand hit. Originally ruled a touchdown, the play was later overturned following a review by the officials in which they determined the pass was incomplete.

Answer by Colby Briant Rules!
The rule says only Calvin Johnson is allowed to catch the ball, if anyone else catches it it's ruled an incomplete

Answer by Kovalchuk17
If the receiver loses control as they hit the ground, the play is ruled as incomplete. Youtube it

Answer by You mad bro
Amen! That Gresham catch was a TD & if it was confirmed that wouldve been a whole different ball game
