Scaling vertex problem

I am having problems when I try to scale an object.

This is what I get.

Problem is when I select the vertex's in the 2 middle rows it also affects the rest of the object. I am not sure how to change this so I can only scale the 2 middle rows of vertexs.

This is what I want to do

Thanks for the help, and no I did not read/search anything about it, I wasn't sure what it was called so I did not know where I should look to address the problem.
