Nuke deal

After 18 days of intense negotiations, the U.S. and five other world powers have reached a deal to freeze Iran's nuclear program for the next decade in exchange for gradual sanctions relief that rolls out as Iran complies with a multi-step process. CBS News correspondent Margaret Brennan reports the accord will keep Iran from producing enough material for a nuclear weapon for at least 10 years and impose new provisions for inspections of Iranian facilities, including military sites. And it marks a dramatic break from decades of animosity between the United States and Iran.

Criminal justice

In a rare moment of unity this week, both President Obama and GOP leaders in Congress will be highlighting the need to overhaul the nation's overworked, bloated criminal justice system. A day after commuting the prison sentences of 46 nonviolent drug offenders, Mr. Obama today will talk about criminal justice reform at the NAACP convention in Philadelphia.

Crash survivor

A 16-year-old girl is safe after surviving a plane crash and trekking through the woods for days to get help. Autumn Veatch was flying from Montana to Washington with her step-grandparents on Saturday when their private plane disappeared. CBS News correspondent John Blackstone reports the teen says she walked out of the woods two days later, near Mazama, Washington.

California gas prices

Nationwide, gas prices are up 8 cents a gallon this past week. But much, if not all, of that increase can be pegged to huge price hikes in California. AAA reports that in Southern California, gas prices have risen by 50 cents in the last week alone. CBS News correspondent Danielle Nottingham reports a consumer watchdog group says it has evidence the state's oil refiners are deliberately trying to keep prices at artificially high levels.

Home care

The eldercare industry trends -- stagnant wages and high turnover -- are poised to create a major crisis in the coming years, when the aging baby boomer population creates a tsunami of demand for home care workers. As a result, the the number of home health care jobs is expected to grow five times faster than jobs in all other occupations.

On sale

Readers are getting their first chance to go over the controversial second Harper Lee novel, a sequel to "To Kill a Mockingbird." "Go Set a Watchman" is a stunningly ominous portrayal of a character we all thought we knew. CBS News correspondent Michelle Miller spoke to several of the reclusive author's friends about its mysterious origins.
