Military chopper crash

Seven Marines and four soldiers were presumed dead this morning after an Army Blackhawk helicopter crashed during a night training exercise out of Eglin Air Force Base in the Florida Panhandle.

Hillary's answer

For the first time, Hillary Clinton explained why she used private email to conduct official business as Secretary of State. During a news conference yesterday, CBS News correspondent Nancy Cordes questioned the potential presidential candidate about the possibility Clinton deleted any unflattering emails.

On the rise

Onstage at the Iowa Freedom Summit in January, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker called for "bold and aggressive" leadership to resuscitate the American dream, ticking off a list of conservative policies he successfully enacted in his state. His speech lit up the activists in the room, and it immediately launched Walker into the top tier of potential Republican presidential candidates, strengthening his standing in early GOP primary polls and securing him a significant measure of visibility. Is he a flash in the pan or the real deal?

Intel science fair

President Obama will meet with some of the country's brightest young minds today. They are in Washington for the Intel Science Talent Search. Forty high school seniors vied for a $150,000 top prize for their experiments and discoveries. CBS News correspondent Wyatt Andrews reports on how their contributions may be priceless.

Steeper climb

Poor children in the U.S. face many barriers to advancement simply because they live in poverty. But new research points to another obstacle further barring the way: inequality. CBS MoneyWatch looks at how things have changed.

Parents testify

In Britain, the families of three female ISIS recruits say they could have stopped the girls from leaving London. They told British lawmakers police failed to warn them of the danger. CBS News correspondent Charlie D'Agata reports from outside Parliament, where family members testified at a hearing.

Rhino poaching

There's new hope for rhinos in South Africa in an ongoing poaching crisis. A group called Rhinos Without Borders is racing to save them from extinction. Last year alone, more than 1,200 were slaughtered in the country for their horns. CBS News correspondent Debora Patta got a rare look at the rescue effort.

Broken promises

Hundreds of Iraqi translators used by the U.S. government during the Iraq war are still waiting for the safe-passage to America they were promised. This week, a lawsuit filed anonymously on their behalf was served against the State Department. For many Iraqis, working for the U.S. military could be a death sentence -- so most had to hide their identities and use fake names. CBS News correspondent Anna Werner talked some of those fighting to bring the translators here.
