FCC to extend hours to 5 30 PM prompts staff pushback
FCC chief Charles Ferris moves to keep the commission open until 5 30 PM to better serve business and public needs. The change affects about 1 500 workers and faced heavy employee opposition and carpooling concerns. Ferris says longer hours aim to improve service though critics doubt government responsiveness can be fixed by office hours alone.

Survivor Scott buys Portland home after Hearst case
Scott and his wife Micki bought a turn of the century home in northwest Portland after three years battling the FBI and the Justice Department over the Hearst case. They have a son born Labor Day and plan a book on the Hearst saga and the SLA. Scott says he may portray Hearst sympathetically or question her testimony. He notes the government showed no further interest and recalls an underground period during the pursuit. Micki's new job as Linnton community center director helped lift the cloud.
