 | Quote Of The Day "I learned that we can do anything, but we can’t do everything.. at least not at the same time. So think of your priorities not in terms of what activities you do, but when you do them. Timing is everything."

Tonight On The CBS Evening News
Here’s an early look at one of the stories we are working on for tonight’s broadcast from Anchor and Managing Editor, Katie Couric
Hi everyone. I hope you had a great week. After huge losses on the global markets, Wall Street reacted to fears of a worldwide recession by plunging more than 400 points in the opening minutes of trading, and struggled all day to gain back its losses. As markets around the world took a hit, even the price of gold, a traditional safe-haven investment, plummeted. Anthony Mason reports on what’s behind the turbulence in the markets.
Meanwhile, OPEC cuts its production, but oil prices continue to fall. Is it because we’re driving less? Elizabeth Palmer explains what's going on in the international oil market.
Of course we'll have the latest from the campaign trail as well. Chip Reid has our report - and Bob Schieffer joins us for some analysis.
Which presidential candidate are the casino heavyweights putting their chips behind? Investigative correspondent Sharyl Attkisson "Follows the Money" all the way to sin city.
And in this election cycle, who's up and who's down … depends on which poll you're looking at. How can you make sense of it all? Jeff Greenfield opens up his book of pointers.
Finally tonight: Assignment America goes to the rodeo. Well, sort of. If you exchange sheep for the bulls … and average kids for the cowboys. Steve Hartman takes in a day of "mutton bustin'," and "ewe" won't want to miss it.
Have a great weekend!
Katie

Grilled Apple Cobbler Saturday night on 48 Hours Here’s a preview of what you can expect to see this Saturday night on 48 HOURS MYSTERY…note from Richard Schlesinger: In his first network interview, Dr. Timothy Stryker addresses the accusations of murder that have dogged him for 15 years. “How could I be blamed for something as terrible as this?” he asks in the 48 HOURS MYSTERY exclusive.
In 1993, Dr. Linda Goudey’s body was found in the back seat of her car in the parking lot of the Boston-area hospital where she worked. The beloved OB/GYN had been strangled in an attack so brutal it left injuries at 24 separate places on her body. Immediately, authorities turned to her boyfriend, Dr. Stryker, and his attempts to help their investigation further fueled their suspicions of his involvement. But with only circumstantial evidence, the case went cold.
While authorities may not have had enough for a criminal case, Goudey’s family pressed on and filed a civil suit against Stryker, who was now married with a successful practice. His wife Micael stood by him throughout the trial. In her first interview since the verdict, she says, “[They] wove this amazing fantasy of this imaginary killer. I thought if I was a jury hearing this [it] would be very compelling.” The jurors did find it compelling: Stryker was found responsible of Goudey’s death and her family was awarded $15 million. Soon after the civil case verdict, a new witness emerged. This was just the break Stryker needed, but to some this new development seemed a little too convenient. The criminal case would take a turn that no one could’ve imagined. Is Dr. Timothy Stryker a calculating murderer or is he an innocent man fighting to clear his name?
Authorities remain committed to bringing Goudey’s killer to justice, especially District Attorney Gerry Leone who, in his first and only interview, pledges, “I’m going to personally stay with this unsolved homicide case as I promised [her] family over a decade ago.”
And thanks for watching 48 HOURS MYSTERY on CBS… Richard Schlesinger
