Earlier this month, the US Air Force ended height restrictions for pilots in hopes of attracting a more diverse pool of candidates, which the Air Force hopes will result in more female applicants. The new rules went into effect on May 13 for applicants.Previously, pilots were required to stand 64 to 77 inches tall. The Air Force said that medical and operations communities will apply an anthropometric screening process to individual applicants for placement in an aircraft they can safely fly as they pursue a rated track. The Air Force says that its previous requirement eliminated about 44% of female applicants age 20 to 29. “Historically, most of our aircraft were engineered around the height of an average male, not females,” said Lt. Col. Jessica Ruttenber, Air Force mobility planner and programmer and team leader on the Women’s Initiative Team.Government data says that the average American adult woman stands 63.8 inches tall, while the average man in the US stands 69.3 inches. The Air Force had a waiver process that allowed applicants who didn’t meet height requirements the opportunity to be considered, but the Air Force said that the process could have scared off applicants. “While most height waivers were approved under the old system, feedback indicated the entire waiver process served as a barrier, which negatively impacted female rated accessions,” said Lt. Col. Christianne Opresko, branch chief on the Air Force’s Air Crew Task Force and an aerospace physiologist. “It’s hard to determine how many women did not previously apply due to their perception of not being fully qualified or having to pursue a waiver.” 1655

Defense Secretary Mark Esper explicitly says he's seen no hard evidence that four American embassies had been under possible threat when President Donald Trump authorized the targeting of Iran’s top commander. Esper's comments in Sunday television interviews raises questions about the scale of the threat described by Trump last week. As the administration struggled with its justification for the drone strike that killed Gen. Qassem Soleimani, Esper and members of Trump's national security team are trying to refocus attention on voices of dissent inside Iran. 577

DENVER – A white supremacist from Colorado was arrested Friday when he met up with three undercover FBI agents in an attempt to bomb the Temple Emanuel synagogue in Pueblo as part of what he called a “racial holy war” and to wipe the synagogue “off the map” in what the FBI says amounts to “domestic terrorism.”Richard Holzer, 27, made his first court appearance at 2 p.m. Monday at the U.S. District Court of Colorado. Court records show he faces one count of attempting to obstruct religious exercise by force using explosives and fire.According to 563

DENVER, Colo. -- Passengers' fears over the possible spread of the new coronovirus appear to be the cause of a plane's unscheduled landing. Officials said a group of people became disruptive because a neighboring passenger was coughing and sneezing on Sunday's flight from Eagle County, Colorado, to Newark International Airport. The United Airlines plane diverted to Denver, where police officials told 416

DENVER, Colo. – Workers use a lot of masks at Comfort Dental in downtown Denver.“We order about 12 boxes a month and each box has 50 masks in it,” said Dr. Jashon Hughes.Now, Hughes and his staff are experiencing a major shortage with this much needed medical supply, saying this deficit is linked to increased concerns over the novel coronavirus.Following news of the coronavirus spreading, Hughes started seeing companies putting a limit on how many masks he can order.“Usually I can order as many boxes as I wanted,” he said while looking at an online order form. “It says, ‘due to the coronavirus outbreak we are experiencing higher than normal demand globally for infection control products such as masks, goggles and face shields.’” Now, other medical experts are speaking out on this shortage. “I can understand why folks want to wear masks,” said Sheryl Zajdowicz, Ph.D. “However, it’s really a bit of a panic move.”Zajdowicz is a biology professor at Metropolitan State University of Denver and says most times wearing a mask won’t keep people protected.“You may not have any benefit whatsoever,” she said. “Because you may be wearing it long term, getting it saturated and that could possibly make you more susceptible to contracted other things.” The U.S. Surgeon General recently urged the public to stop buying masks and leave them for health workers, tweeting “they are not effective in preventing general public from catching coronavirus, but if healthcare providers can’t get them to care for sick patients, it puts them and our communities at risk!”Zajdowicz has also noticed some people trying to make a profit and cash in on this concern with the coronavirus with hand sanitizers selling for several times more than its normal cost.“It seems a bit extreme and just appalling to see that cost,” she said. “ for a typical bottle (for an right-ounce bottle of hand sanitizer).”Zajdowicz says the best defense against the coronavirus is a good ol’ fashioned handwashing – scrubbing your hands with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds, which is about the time it takes you to sing “Happy Birthday” twice.Back at the dentist's office, Hughes says the super high demand for masks is creating all kinds of challenges.“Coronavirus isn’t the only thing hoping to protect from,” he said. “We’ve got the flu, colds, stuff like that.”He added if the concerns continue to grow and supplies continue to shrink, they may have to take drastic measures to stay safe“Long term if this thing blows up then, yeah, you could see offices not opening here and there if it did spread and get worse,” he said. 2625
