TONIGHT ON THE CBS EVENING NEWS
Here's a look at what we are working on for tonight's broadcast of The CBS Evening News: Hi everyone, Katie is off tonight, I'm Erica Hill. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke today said the Fed is ready to take extra steps to stimulate the economy if needed. His comments came shortly after the government reported that the U.S. economy grew in the second quarter at a much slower pace than previously estimated. The gross domestic product (GDP) - the broadest measure of the economy's output - grew at a 1.6 percent annual rate. CBS News Senior Business Correspondent Anthony Mason will go behind the numbers, tonight. Tens of thousands of Glenn Beck fans and Tea Party supporters are expected to descend on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., tomorrow for the "Restoring Honor" rally. The rally falls on the anniversary and at the site of Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous "I Have a Dream" speech. The event is drawing criticism, protests and questions about Beck's intentions. Organizers say the aim is to pay tribute to America's military personnel, and others "who embody our nation's founding principle of integrity, truth and honor." CBS News Correspondent Wyatt Andrews will have that story tonight. Five years after Hurricane Katrina, the city of New Orleans is still a work in progress. Tonight, CBS News Correspondent Mark Strassmann takes a look at the progress, or lack of progress, by looking at two very different buildings: the Superdome and Charity hospital. Both buildings were lifesavers when Katrina hit, but today, only one of them shows signs of life. To truly appreciate how much the Gulf Coast has come back from the effects of Hurricane Katrina, we'll take a look back at how much damage was done five years ago. CBS Early Show Co-Anchor Harry Smith was there five years ago, and he'll report from there tonight. See you then.

Sells said that he had killed people all over the country, from California to West Virginia. Could a child's testimony bring a killer to justice?
