KABUL (AP) -- Eager to overcome a bout of bickering, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Afghan President Hamid Karzai made a show of unusual unity between their two nations on Monday. The friendly display came as the U.S. military ceded control of its last detention facility in Afghanistan, ending a longstanding irritant in relations.
Kerry arrived in the Afghan capital of Kabul on an unannounced visit amid concerns that Karzai may be jeopardizing progress in the war against extremism with anti-American rhetoric. After a private meeting, Kerry said he and Karzai were "on the same page" on security and reconciliation issues and brushed aside suggestions that relations were in peril.
Karzai infuriated U.S. officials earlier this month by accusing Washington of colluding with Taliban insurgents to keep Afghanistan weak even as the Obama administration pressed ahead with plans to hand off security responsibility to Afghan forces and end NATO's combat mission by the end of next year.
Hours after Karzai and Kerry met, eight suicide bombers attacked a police headquarters in the eastern city of Jalalabad, killing five officers and wounding four, police said. Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid claimed responsibility for the attacks.
At a joint news conference after his talks with Kerry, Karzai told reporters that his comments in a nationally televised speech had been misinterpreted by the media. Kerry demurred on that point but said people sometimes say things in public that reflect ideas they have heard from others but don't necessarily agree with.
"I am confident the president (Karzai) does not believe the U.S. has any interest except to see the Taliban come to the table to make peace and that we are completely cooperative with the government of Afghanistan with respect to the protection of their efforts and their people," Kerry said. He noted that he had specifically raised the comment in question with Karzai and was satisfied with the response.
"We're on the same page," Kerry said. "I don't think there is any disagreement between us and I am very, very comfortable with the president's explanation."
For his part, Karzai said that he had been trying to make the point in his speech that if the Taliban really wanted foreign troops out of Afghanistan they should stop killing people.
In the March 9 speech, he berated the Taliban for deadly bombings in Kabul and the city of Khost that he said "showed that they are at the service of America and at the service of this phrase: 2014," -- the withdrawal date set for most international forces.
Karzai suggested in the speech that the U.S. and the Taliban were working together "trying to frighten us into thinking that if the foreigners are not in Afghanistan, we would be facing these sorts of incidents."
Standing beside Kerry on Monday, Karzai said "today was a very good day," citing the turnover of the detention facility at the U.S.-run Bagram military base north of Kabul. He also expressed gratitude for the sacrifices made for his country by Americans.
At the same time, he defended allegations he has made about American troops or their local contractors abusing Afghan civilians. He said his complaints and criticism were not meant to "offend" anyone but rather to protect his people.
"When I say something publicly, it is not meant to offend our allies but to correct the situation," he said. "I am responsible for the protection of the Afghan people. I am the president of this country. It is my job to provide all the protection I can to the people of this country."
Karzai has ordered U.S. special operations forces out of Wardak province, just outside Kabul, because of allegations that Afghans working with the commandos were involved in abusive behavior.
Kerry and Karzai's news conference came near the beginning of Kerry's 24-hour visit to the country -- his sixth since President Barack Obama took office but his first as Obama's secretary of state. Kerry referred frequently to U.S. respect for Afghan sovereignty and he said the handover of the detention facility was testament to that.
As Kerry flew to Kabul, the U.S. military ceded control of the Parwan detention facility near Bagram, a year after the two sides initially agreed on the transfer. Karzai had demanded control of Parwan as a matter of national sovereignty.
The long-running dispute over the center had thrown a pall over ongoing negotiations for a bilateral security agreement to govern the presence of U.S. forces in Afghanistan after 2014.
An initial agreement to hand over Parwan was signed a year ago, but efforts to follow through on it constantly stumbled over American concerns that the Afghan government would release prisoners that it considered dangerous. An initial deadline for the full handover passed last September; another passed earlier this month.

In the spring and summer, not only do you have the luxury of layering on bronzer but you get a little glow-y by default (even with sunscreen, you're outside more and ultraviolet rays are stronger). Then winter hits and suddenly skin becomes dull, dry and flakey. "High temperatures during the spring and summer cause our bodies to produce more natural oils and this production slows in the winter resulting in dry skin," says Dennis Gross, MD, director of 900 5th Dermatology in New York City and creator of Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare. "Additionally, there is less humidity in winter air and this causes moisture to evaporate off of our skin."
But along with the side effects of Mother Nature, your skin is also subjected to the harsh, daily rituals that you do on a daily basis, too. "The warm baths and hot showers which we are inclined to take during the cold winter months have an extreme drying effect," says Dr. Gross. "Additionally, the chlorination in our tap water is stripping as well." The first rule: use slightly less hot water each time you cleanse. And when you get out of the shower, allow the steam to your skin's advantage. "Keep the bathroom door closed to preserve the steam then gently towel dry and apply moisturizer to skin that is still damp," says Dr. Gross.
Just how your summer apparel is no longer season appropriate, skincare must be looked at the same way. Although adding moisture wasn't as much of an issue a few months ago, it is now and therefore, several products in your daily routine should help replenish and hydrate skin. Afraid you'll clog your pores? Simply opt for oil-free, as when it comes down to it, restoring the lipid layer to skin can be accomplished without leading to a surge of breakouts.
The one product to add to your winter must-haves, regardless of skin type? A moisture mask. "Masks can be very beneficial during the dry winter months," says Dr. Gross. "I recommend choosing a mask with hyaluronic acid that contains a self-heating element to deliver the ingredients deep into skin." (Try Dr. Dennis Gross Age Erase Recovery Mask)
"The most important thing you can do for your skin during winter to stay hydrated is to exfoliate all year round, but especially when skin is dry," says Paul Jarrod Frank, MD, a dermatologist in NYC and director of 5th Avenue Dermatology Surgery and Laser Center in NYC. "For skin that is very dry especially, a light application of Aquaphor is beneficial after using a product to exfoliate the skin." And leave your super lightweight lotions to the side, opting for richer creams that are more apt to hydrate as well as restore skin's protective barrier. As much as it's crucial to provide moisture, it's equally important to help skin retain it's natural lipids, too. "The difference between consistencies of a cream and lotion has to do with the balance of oils and water at a basic level," explains Dr. Frank. "There is more oil in a cream so therefore it is a thicker substance and more moisturizing and the greater the oil content, the better absorption through the skin barriers to hydrate the tissue." If you still prefer the feel of lighter textures, use a moisturizing serum underneath them, which although goes on sheer yet is packed with active levels of powerful hydrators. Or simply use a supercharged cream at night only. "While you sleep, skin is able to repair as well as retain moisture for longer," says Frank, who suggests Clinique Youth Surge Night Age Decelerating Night Moisturizer.
And while exfoliating when skin is dry and flakey, might seem counterintuitive, it's a crucial step to achieve glow-y skin year round. "Mature skin may need additional moisture, both day and night, especially when it is cold however, mature skin does not necessarily mean dry skin," explains Dr. Frank. "Night time is always ideal to use anti-aging products such as retinols and products containing AHA's, such as glycolic or fruit acids. These products will encourage cell turnover and leave the skin smooth and exfoliated." Or simply stick to your nightly Clarisonic routine to help speed up skin's natural sloughing process. "It's a great tool for exfoliating the face and will get rid of the dead layer of skin for effectively," he says.
And remember, it's the perfect time to kick start repair—as skin has far less UV-light to battle, which is the number one cause of premature aging. The latest treatment that have skin experts excited to share: "Clear & Brilliant is a popular treatment all year round but especially the winter time when patients complain that skin is looking dull," explains Dr. Frank. "The procedure has minimal downtime and exfoliates the skin leaving fresh and revitalized texture as well as a glow."
Winter skin must-haves: The best ingredients to use when cold weather strikes.
Essential Oils. Derived from nature—typically botanicals or flowers—these pure oils are highly effective moisturizers that mimic skin's natural lipids and won't clog pores. Plus, they're able to seep deep into the epidermis to offer full hydration.
Humectants. "These molecules actually draw water into your skin from the atmosphere," explains Dr. Gross. "They're great for counteracting the drying effect of arid winter air." The most powerful of the bunch: hyaluronic acid, aka hyaluronate, which can hold onto 1000 times it weight in water.
Alpha hydroxy acids. Because if dry, thick skin is sitting on the superficial layers, then mega moisturizers can't do their job. "Daily, gentle chemical exfoliation with alpha and beta hydroxy acids will help to prevent dead skin cells from building up," says Dr. Gross. Or look for cleansers laced with the exfoliators: "I advise my pateints to focus on a face wash with salicylic acid to only light buff away dead cells so that they don't over dry skin," says Dr. Frank. Because at the end of the day? "The oil that the skin is already producing is the best natural moisturizer, whether the weather is cold or hot," he says.

Porsche celebrates 50 years of 911 with some excellent pics
by Jeffrey N. Ross (RSS feed) on Feb 12th, 2013 at 4:58PM
The Porsche 911 is one of the most iconic sports cars of all time, and to celebrate the car's first 50 years, Porsche has released a stunning set of photos showing how far the 911 has come from the original back in 1963 to its current 991 generation. Unlike the recent 60-year photo spread that Chevrolet put together for the Corvette, though, Porsche's gallery only shows the original 911 and the current car. Each time the 911 is redesigned, the car's front fenders, roofline and the shape of the side windows are key focal points. Even some of the interior cues have remained the same over the...

Pereira & O'Dell Reveals the Strange Lives of Scrabble Tiles
It's always refreshing to see a TV spot that breaks the mold of how a certain type of product can be marketed. Not that I'm saying Pereira O'Dell and prodco Biscuit Filmworks' newest campaign for Scrabble is revolutionary, but I think if we ever hear the phrase "board game ad," most of us have an pretty set idea of what it looks like, no matter what game is being advertised.
Well, it looks like two things happened here. First, Pereira & O'Dell creatives decided to think quite far outside of the box and presented this concept to Mattel. Then, probably quite surprisingly, Mattel decided to approve a hell of a budget. Now, we have a campaign that take us away from the smiling family sitting around their dining room table and into the world of Scrabble tiles. And, if you ask them, there's nothing quite like being "Blank."
Because I'm a bit of a sad bastard mess this Friday afternoon, this "Lonely Q" spot struck a nerve with me. Let's just say, I've never before sympathized with the letter Q for any reason. But, things seem to work out for him, and maybe all it takes to get back on your feet is the ability to sit down, meditate over a friendly game of Scrabble, and remember how to be yourself. But, then again, I'm probably reading into this a little too much.

Miami, Florida, ...
Short Description
Inspired by the 70's decade, I created a futuristic, yet classic suit with pops of color, pleats, a flamboyant pattern for the lining. The suit is paired with a bright red silk bow-tie and other details include zippers at the bottom leg.
Long Description
Many years ago when I fantasized about sewing (in my mind), I had a brilliant idea to create a
gorgeous pinstripe jumpsuit that I could wear to work and for many occasions. Presently, I had the opportunity to create my vision for "THE BERNINA PARTY THROUGH THE DECADES 2010 COMPETITION".
My inspiration mostly draws from the 70's decade, where men were much more flamboyant with fashion. Although, I'm not a very "flashy" person, I am very drawn to the colors, sequence and rhinestones used to embellish their garments. However, I choose to make my suit very neutral with bold pops of color and hidden surprises.
Since I didn't have a pattern to create the jumpsuit, I attempted to draft my own using existing clothes from my wardrobe and random patterns in my sewing kit. I also created many sketches as a guide too. Nonetheless, my first attempt to make the top of the jumpsuit (now jacket) was unsuccessful and I wasted a large portion of fabric, because I was so anxious to get started and finish the garment. So, I refocused and decided to use a button down shirt pattern to create a "muslin" of the jacket first. Yes! Believe it or not, I used a button down shirt pattern to draft and construct the final piece too. (Pattern – Vogue V8096)

Associated Press
PAJU, South Korea (AP) -- North Korea warned Thursday that its military has been cleared to attack the U.S. using "smaller, lighter and diversified" nuclear weapons, while the U.S. said it will strengthen regional protection by deploying a missile defense system to Guam.
Despite the intense rhetoric, analysts do not expect a nuclear attack by North Korea, which knows the move could trigger a destructive, suicidal war. Experts believe Pyongyang does not yet have the ability to launch nuclear-tipped missiles, but its other nuclear capabilities aren't fully known.
The strident warning from Pyongyang is the latest in a series of escalating threats from North Korea, which has railed against joint U.S. and South Korean military exercises taking place in South Korea and has expressed anger over tightened sanctions for its February nuclear test.
For a second day Thursday, North Korean border authorities denied entry to South Koreans who manage jointly run factories in the North Korean city of Kaesong. A North Korean government-run committee threatened to pull out North Korean workers from Kaesong as well.
On Tuesday, Pyongyang announced it would restart a plutonium reactor it had shut down in 2007. A U.S. research institute said Wednesday that satellite imagery shows that construction needed for the restart has already begun.
North Korea's military statement said its troops had been authorized to counter U.S. "aggression" with "powerful practical military counteractions," including nuclear weapons.
"We formally inform the White House and Pentagon that the ever-escalating U.S. hostile policy toward the DPRK and its reckless nuclear threat will be smashed by the strong will of all the united service personnel and people and cutting-edge smaller, lighter and diversified nuclear strike means," an unnamed spokesman from the General Bureau of the Korean People's Army said in a statement carried by state media, referring to North Korea by its formal name, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. "The U.S. had better ponder over the prevailing grave situation."
The Pentagon announced that it will deploy a missile defense system to the U.S. Pacific territory of Guam to strengthen regional protection against a possible attack.
U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said Washington is doing all it can to defuse the situation, echoing comments a day earlier by Secretary of State John Kerry.
"Some of the actions they've taken over the last few weeks present a real and clear danger and threat to the interests, certainly of our allies, starting with South Korea and Japan, and also the threats that the North Koreans have leveled directly at the United States regarding our base in Guam, threatened Hawaii, threatened the West Coast of the United States," Hagel said Wednesday.
South Korea's Defense Ministry said its military is ready to deal with any provocation by North Korea. "I can say we have no problem in crisis management," deputy ministry spokesman Wee Yong-sub told reporters.
This spring's annual U.S.-South Korea drills have incorporated fighter jets and nuclear-capable stealth bombers, though the allies insist they are routine exercises. Pyongyang calls them rehearsals for a northward invasion.
The foes fought on opposite sides of the three-year Korean War, which ended in a truce in 1953. The divided Korean Peninsula remains in a technical state of war six decades later, and Washington keeps 28,500 troops in South Korea to protect its ally.
North Korea's nuclear strike capabilities remain unclear.
Pyongyang is believed to be working toward building an atomic bomb small enough to mount on a long-range missile. Long-range rocket launches designed to send satellites into space in 2009 and 2012 were widely considered covert tests of missile technology, and North Korea has conducted three underground nuclear tests, most recently in February.
"I don't believe North Korea has the capacity to attack the United States with nuclear weapons mounted on missiles, and won't for many years. Its ability to target and strike South Korea is also very limited," nuclear scientist Siegfried Hecker, a senior fellow at the Center for International Security and Cooperation at Stanford University, said this week.
"And even if Pyongyang had the technical means, why would the regime want to launch a nuclear attack when it fully knows that any use of nuclear weapons would result in a devastating military response and would spell the end of the regime?" he said in answers posted to CISAC's website.
In Seoul, a senior government official said Tuesday it wasn't clear how advanced North Korea's nuclear weapons capabilities are. But he also noted fallout from any nuclear strike on Seoul or beyond would threaten Pyongyang as well, making a strike unlikely. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to speak publicly to the media.

Elizabeth Lozen at the Port Huron American Red Cross Blood Donation Center tells our Paul Miller if there's a need for blood somewhere, the Red Cross will be there. Lozen says this time of year, when people are busy with the holidays, is a particularly slow time for blood donations. So is summertime. And even January, when many colleges have breaks.

The Inland Empire 48 Hour Film Project
What Happened During Your Weekend?
The Inland Empire filmmakers share stories from their wild weekend of filmmaking. (Blogging ended shortly after the filmmaking weekend.)
Worth the Punishment
This is my 5th 48 Hour Film Project, my 4th as a Team Leader/Director. It goes without saying that I love the 48.
I think it is fantastic for team building, pushing creativity, cultivating an attitude of perseverance, and building relationships with people you now KNOW can handle anything. I also happen to think the lack of sleep, stress, and time pressure are most likely some of the same tools used by interrogators.
Each year I have competed has its own unique story regarding the obstacles, the joys, and the experience overall. I always try to go in with a goal to these things and this year was no different.
This year I am in pre-production for my first micro budget indy feature, a horror comedy (or as I like to put it...a comedy in a horror situation) called "Lichlord Dan and the Fall of Man." My goal for the 48 was to do more "live test" work with our recently acquired primary feature camera, and to (hopefully) be able to make a short film that could be a promo piece for LLD. Not make the same film but a completely different one - with similar themes and circumstances. That depended on A LOT going right (ha!)...it depended most on the genre we selected however. The comedy in a horror situation gods were on our side however as I drew COMEDY for our genre!
We had already ran into numerous hurdles...losing our location...gaining it....losing it...only to finally have to shoot in PALM DESERT (with some people coming from LA)....which caused me to lose two actresses and two crew due to the distance. Another hurdle was the "main" actress I planned to use (and my make up artist) both had to leave Palm Desert by 3pm Saturday.....GAH!!! That said, pulling comedy out of that hat totally invigorated me. Writing came easy...a story that I felt would entertain flowed...and suddenly making the call time 5 am (to compensate for the loss of actress/mua by early afternoon) didn't seem like such a dumb idea. We just might actually have a story ready to shoot by then! Huzzah!! Still...by the time 1pm came and I realized we had only shot HALF OF OUR SCRIPT I could feel the desire for panic welling up....but instead I just cut a page and a half (losing our "Phantasm" scene...sorry Ken!) and we made it work.
I can't say enough about our team. I really am touched by the many fantastic people I have had the pleasure to cross paths with. This team is beyond dynamite. We shot, had a green screen photo op area, and dealt with curve balls...all while laughing non stop. I can't wait to hopefully hear the audience do the same at the screening.

No Challenge is to BiG to Overcome!
Going into this festival, we knew we had a HUGE challenge before us because, well all of our friends (actor/crew people) were unavailable. That meant we would be doing EVERYTHING with two adults, a teenager, and a five year old.
We knew we would have to shoot scenes quickly with easy set up & tear down. So we gave ourselves another big challenge; could we shoot a competitive, quality, short film with ONLY an iPhone 5 and a shotgun mic? I think with those given constraints, we produced something respectable that a crowd will enjoy viewing.
Our genre was Sci Fi. My daughter is a MEGA Dr Whovian, however, we were intimidated at producing something 'believable' without the professional equipment for CGI effects. We decided to throw caution to the wind and just go for it because we thought with our luck, we would draw the creature/monster wild card and be right back at CGI issues, only worse!
Our inspiration behind film technique came from a small documentary by Alfred Hitchcock. He was one smart dude!
Our methodology for shooting a good short without professional equipment came from Indymogul.com, Frugalfilmaker.com, and commentaries from participants of previous iPhone Film Festivals.
We had an amazing weekend as a family. Only one casualty to report at this time (not to ruin some of the plot about the actor with no stunt double): me falling down a steep incline on a mountainside because I was holding a wedding dress under one arm, while shooting B film with the other hand in a big hurry to get back before dusk.
Would we do it all over again? Absolutely! The film industry is an amazing machine and we enjoy learning from it.

The Boobs and the Beautiful
This was my first year entering, as a team leader no
less, for the 48 Hour Film Project. I had just recently met a young lady from a comedy sketch group called JustBoobs Sketch, who are doing very well with their recently aired YouTube channel (look them up!). I decided to send their team a video invitation of myself, asking them to join forces with my production team, Primus Pictures, for this year's 48. From there, magic and great friendships blossomed. They joined us on set, with their wonderful director Davey Vorhes, and we sketched out a piece for our genre of comedy. I can think of few times I have ever had so much fun and have laughed so hard on set. With 40 hours of no sleep (my new personal record), we persevered through time constraints, technical set backs and utter fatigue. But it was all undoubtably worth it. With my crew of professionals and their natural artistic talent, I would confidently say that every bit of this opportunity was something I'll never forget. Can't wait to do it all again next year =)

We love making films!
We'll I pulled out from that hat... Drats... Musical or Western ??!?? Oh what to do? go for the secondary option? What if it's worse? Nope, let's go for it! Musical it is. I've never written a musical, I'm sure not many of us have, but I am musically inclined. So, my wife and decided lets do it. What a great team of friends new and old. We all kept a positive attitude and we got through it. Can't wait to see the other flms too! See you at the screenings.

Comfortable, wonderful shoes
I bought the 2.5 brown oiled waxy shoes 10 months ago. When I first got them through the post I loved the unusual look. The shoes are very comfortable to wear and mold to your feet very quickly. They are true to the size- it's great to find such a wide range of styles in a 2.5, and in a wide width. What has impressed me most is the durability of the shoes. I walk at least 6 miles daily on a mostly flat terrain and have worn these shoes for the last 6 months. These shoes still look great and are remain more comfortable than my walking shoes (which are too big). These shoes are great value for money. I've never found a pair of flats that have lasted this long before. I'm buying another pair, and will stick with this Sebago for shoes from now on.

Beautifully made boat shoes in a lovely rich brown oiled leather. Very comfortable from the start - quite unusual in this style. They are wide and come up slightly longer than average so I had to go down a half size to get a good fit (I have wide feet). I would thoroughly recommend them and hope to get a second pair.

60 views and noone has any idea?
ok so as a prot warrior i enjoy tanking, but my guild wants me to be able to dps when called on so since one spec is expected to be dps I'm stuck on figuring out what spec to use for prot since there are different variations.
i just have problems on deciding which talents to get, i mean i enjoy having deep wounds for threat, but i know imp demo shout is good to have, i have trouble giving up imp spell reflect since there are fights where it helps like with mimiron (but i guess it isn't the best one to take).
so what kind of spec would you recommend for a tank who can only have 1 tank spec?

60 views and noone has any idea?
for dps, i'm currently 53/17/1 specced as arms, and 14/3/54 for protection, which is more of a threat build. however my main problem is getting dps warrior gear, as i dont have any.
For maximum theoretical DPS, the spec will depend on what gear you have access to, which you did not provide. For actual dps it will be a combination of what gear you have access to, and your skill level with both arms and fury, which you did not provide. There are also several talents that you may, or may not, need to pick up based on your raid composition, which you also did not provide.
For the tank spec question, are you MT or OT, what content are you in, is it 10 or 25 man, what is your gear like?
Basically what i'm saying is, if you want help, give us something to work with. You just saying "I need help", without giving us a clear picture of where you are, doesn't give us the perspective we need to help you.
umm... i thought i was clear in my original post but i guess i wasn't.
I'm not looking for a dps spec, what I'm looking for is a prot spec, since i can only have one i can't decide on how to spec for it.
yes i usually MT most bosses the tanks kinda take turns depending on the fight. we focus mainly on 25man content while doing 10 mans on the side. my tank gear is mostly from 25 man ulduar (we've cleared up to yogg) not sure what else to say on that.
this is how I'm currently speced for prot atm:
Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft
The spec depends entirely on the content that you're tanking. Are you guys working on Ulduar HM? Farming Naxx? Are you frequently the MT or do you find yourself off-tanking more often than not?
The spec you listed is fine for most content. If you're doing a lot of naxx with good healers, well-geared dps, you might want to drop 2-3 points out of shield spec or improved discipline and pick up some cruelty for the extra crit and glyph into cleave..but its very situational.
Can you also provide an armory link?

15/3/53 works fine, 2 min shield wall, good survivability and good threat. You're not losing too much not picking up imp demo. I find demo's a hard debuff to keep up anyways, it seems to drop off bosses after 1-2 seconds, and you're stuck spamming it to keep it up - not very good for main tanking when you're fighting threat against dpsers.
Your ad could be here.
You MT both Vezax and Hodir, both encounters where threat matters a lot, I think you could answer the question your self.
That being said:
Get one of your dps-warriors to specc into imp. demoshout regardless of your spec-choice. In case you go with a imp. demoshout specc you would still want this debuff to be applied if your dpsing and in case you go with a more threat oriented specc you obviously need it as well.

WASHINGTON - Area prosecutors are being extra vigilant after the killings of two Texas prosecutors in three months.
Kaufman County District Attorney Mike McLelland and his wife Cynthia were found dead last weekend in their home and Assistant District Attorney Mark Hasse was killed in January.
"Everyone who pays attention to the news has seen what happened in Texas," says Arlington County Commonwealth's attorney Theo Stamos. She has asked her staff to look out for each other as they go about their jobs.
Prince William County Commonwealth's Attorney Paul Ebert says the killings in Texas have heightened vigilance.
"Because of this recent publicity, I think more of us are more aware of our surroundings and more concerned to some extent," Ebert says.
But Stamos and Ebert agree that threats go with the job.
"I think every prosecutor gets threatened from time to time, but usually nothing more than threats," Ebert says.
"Given the nature of what we do, we should always have a level of concern. It's goes with the territory," Stamos adds.
In at least some Maryland states attorney's offices the Texas killings have or will be discussed at staff meetings, in which prosecutors, their assistants and staffs are being asked to be extra aware of their surroundings.
"There are always security precautions that you take, but in light of what happened in Texas you try to make sure you're as vigilant as possible to protect yourself," said a staff member in a Maryland office who asked not be named, reluctant to publicly discuss security issues.
The Arlington County-based National District Attorneys Association has sent a letter to DA's nationwide reminding all prosecutors to exercise caution.
Executive Director Scott Burns says the killings of prosecutors are rare, just 13 in the past 50 years.
But Burns says threats come with the job.
"You can't be a prosecutor for any period of time without receiving threats, it goes on every day all across the country. But with these shocking murders in Texas, it's brought it close to home," he says.
The two Texas prosecutors weren't the only public safety officials targeted recently. Wednesday, a West Virginia sheriff known for his aggressive drug enforcement was shot and killed near the Mingo County Courthouse. And Colorado's corrections director was shot outside his home in March.

5 Cars With the Best Resale Value
PORTLAND, Ore. ( TheStreet) -- Buying a car is as much about what you'll sell it for years from now as it is about the current sticker price.
The standard wisdom is that your car depreciates in value as soon as it leaves the lot. Its value doesn't completely fall off a cliff, however, unless you decide to run it into the ground or buy a model not known for its longevity. The folks at auto pricing and valuation site Kelley Blue Book note that depreciation costs a car owner more than gas, maintenance or insurance during the first five years of new-car ownership.
Kelley Blue Book has been publishing its residual value guide since 1981 and knows a thing or two about resale value. That "blue book" value used car buyers talk about when pricing a vehicle? Yeah, they're the same guys, and they've been handing out their Best Resale Value Awards since 2003.
The 2013 model year's entries are going to make Toyota (TM) fans extremely happy, but will likely produce more grumbling from Detroit Three loyalists. Toyota and its Lexus division were named Best Brand and Best Luxury Brand, respectively, for their ability to retain their cars' value over the first five years of ownership. Despite the automaker's spate of recalls and its struggles after the Japanese earthquake and tsunami last year, Toyota took six out of KBB's 22 vehicle categories, while Lexus won two of three luxury categories (the Porsche Panamera won Best High-End Luxury Car).Though Honda (HMC) swept the small and midsized car categories and Toyota won both pickup honors, the Detroit automakers weren't completely shut out. The Ford (F) Fusion Hybrid won Best Hybrid/Alternative Energy car over the Lexus ES 300h, General Motors' (GM) Chevy Volt won Best Electric Car over the Toyota Prius Plug-In and GM's Chevy Camaro took Best Sports Car and Best High-Performance Car ahead of the Porsche Boxter and Lexus IS. There are only a handful of cars that give owners a big portion of their investment back five years later. According to Kelley Blue Book, the following vehicles are a car buyer's best chance of getting half of their money back or more once it's time to sell:

Follow with LUSH conditioner if needed. Keep your solid shampoo in a cool, dry place between uses; we recommend using a LUSH shampoo bar tin.

A:NEW! shampoo bar is invigorating and the rosemary and peppermint oils can stimulate hair growth! Any of our products can be used during pregnancy, so long as your doctor hasn't advised you to avoid specific ingredients or materials. I'd recommend checking with your doctor as to whether there are any particular ingredients she or he would advise you to avoid, as each person is different.Answered on 11/26/2014 by Haley from LUSH Direct

A:New is a stimulating shampoo that has a few essential oils in the that will help to encourage healthy hair growth. It is not actually designed to grow hair, it will work to decongest the scalp by motivating with spice and mint oils.Answered on 11/13/2014 by Melissa S from LUSH Direct
A:I have not noticed any new hair growth. I have been using this product for
2 years now. even though I haven't seen any new hair growth I haven't lost
any more hair that I had when I started using it.
I love this shampoo for the clean feel it leaves my hair. so, even though
it didn't restore this 50 year old's hair to that of a 25 year old its
great stuff and doesn't feel heavy or leave residue in your hairAnswered on 11/12/2014 by Anonymous

Q:what lush conditioner would you recommend to go with this shampoo bar? I was looking at veganese, but when i went to the store, i think it's smell does not complement with this shampoo's. what do you think?Asked on 8/3/2014 by Dolly
3 answers
A:Definitely American Cream, the effect is a bit like candy cane!Answered on 10/11/2014 by Puli from Lansdale, PA
A:We don't really have any conditioners with a similar scent to NEW! so it is best to base your choice on what will work best for your hair. That being said, Retread is a little bit lighter, scent wise, so it might be a nice compliment to NEW! , which is a little bit stronger of a fragrance.Answered on 9/25/2014 by Melissa S from LUSH Direct
A:I think you should go for the American Cream Conditioner, I agree that the Veganese conditioner would not compliment the NEW! bar much.Answered on 8/24/2014 by The_Ruch_A_Nator from Coalinga, CA

Q:What's the best way to store the bar so it lasts the longest/is easily accessible in the shower?Asked on 9/25/2013 by Brynn from Portland, OR
3 answers
A:I break up the bar into 4 pieces. Each piece lasts me about 1 month and I store it in the tin Lush sells. I place the piece I use in the shower in a shallow dish on top a cap from a water bottle. This allows any water to drip below the bar and dry between uses. The bowl catches the drippings for easy cleaning otherwise my shower ledge would be red from the lather. I've been doing this for about a year now and it works really well.Answered on 2/25/2014 by Rosie from San Antonio, TX
A:The best way to store the bar is to keep it in a dry location out of any sunlight. I would suggest purchasing our shampoo bar tins as it stores it safely!Answered on 12/8/2013 by Anonymous
A:I keep my bar stored on a soap ledge in the back of the shower out of the water. If you don't have a ledge in a dry spot, you could always buy a wire soap dish with suction cups. I have seen them at Target before.

Q:Does this product help with hereditary hair loss?Asked on 6/1/2013 by Alise Michelle
2 answers
A:New! is meant to help with hair loss of any kind as it works to stimulate the scalp and follicles, which promote new hair growth.Answered on 10/2/2013 by Kendra M from LUSH Direct
A:Being the child of a mother and father who have pretty thin hair, I know how you feel. For me, NEW! worked EXTREMELY well! I've only been using it for a week and I'm pretty sure it's going to be a bit longer before I see evidence of hair growth but I know for sure that it's made my hair LOOK thicker and even feel thicker. It gives great volume, makes your hair shiny, and even smells great! Although I would recommend accompanying NEW! with a hydrating conditioner as it does tend to dry my hair out although my hair is usually extremely oily so it balances my hair out perfectly!Answered on 7/30/2013 by LUSH Luver from Florida
Q:I thought that Sodium Lauryl Sulfate is not a very healthy ingredient to be using on your skin? I've read that it is just an irritant and only used as a deep cleaning/foaming agent. I see that its in more products than just this one. I really want to use these shampoo bars, as i'm sure they are amazing, but the SLS worries me. Could someone tell me why it's used and if I just have the wrong information on this ingredient?Asked on 5/14/2013 by Just Wondering
1 answer
A:Sodium lauryl sulfate is a surfactant, which can create quite a rich foam in certain concentrations, and has a long history of safe use. Its combination of water-soluble and oil-soluble properties allow the product containing it to bond with any oils present. This purpose is especially useful in our hair treatments, hair conditioners, and other products that are meant to be washed out, as it helps the product to rinse out without leaving product residue. In short, we use it to create lather, as well as to clean the hair!Answered on 9/26/2013 by Brandy from LUSH

A:The New! bar is great because it really helps to foster a healthy scalp, with lots of stimulating ingredients to promote circulation. A healthy scalp helps with both the growth and retention of hair, but it will still take time for the hair to grow.

Q:which conditioner would you recommend with the new shampoo?Asked on 1/27/2012 by Anonymous
6 answers
A:Honestly, you can use any conditioner that is best for your hair type. This shampoo cleanses and stimulates your hair but will not condition it for you. When using the shampoo though, make sure you lather well to get all the grime off your hair and then condition as normal.Answered on 6/8/2012 by Akari from Clifton, Virginia
A:My personal choice of a conditioner to use with the new shampoo would be Retread!Answered on 1/30/2012 by Community Answer from None
A:That would depend on what your individual hair needs are- if your hair is very dry, you might want a thick, deep conditioning product like Retread. If the hair is oily or limp, you might want to try Veganese, as it's lightweight and great for shine. If the hair is normal, American Cream may be a good choice- but really it does depend on the hair needs, as we don't make our shampoos and conditioners for just one need or hair type- they can be used in many different combinations for varying hair needs.Answered on 1/30/2012 by Megan from LUSH
A:Most of the year, my daughter and I use "Jungle" with "New" shampoo. In the winter though, we add "Veganese" for the added moisture.Answered on 2/14/2012 by Kat in Germany from Germany
A:it really depends on your hair type...my hair is greasy at the roots and dry at the ends..so i usually use American Cream with this, but if your hair is different i wouldn't recommend this combo.Answered on 4/16/2012 by cassixnicole from chicagooohhhh

Dior has reinvented the smokey eye thanks to a new 3-Colours Smoky palette. A chiaro-scuro variation of effects and textures, this eye shadow trio provides infinite, easy, custom-made smokey eyes.
This original case reveals the secret of smokey "catwalk" eyes.
Its sliding lid is as astonishing as it is intelligent, revealing an innovative, pop-up mirror. Inside, an ultra-smooth base prepares the eyelid. The matte and iridescent shadows of this duo provide made-to measure make-up from the most simple prêt-à-porter, to the most glamorous Couture looks.
