How hard is it to move to a different state?
Question:
I am currently living in Indiana, but my goal destination is Ricerside California. I know it is going to take a lot to get there, but I don't really know how much it will cost me or if the over all idea is bright or just a hopeless dream?
Answer:
Are you sure you want to move to Riverside?? It is one of the more affordable areas in Southern CA but it's getting more expensive and quick. The smog is absolutely terrible b/c it all blows inland and gets trapped there. The traffic is getting worse by the day, The Riverside Freeway (SR-91) between Riverside and Orange County is one of the worst in the state. And the crime is not the greatest, lot of meth heads there and many of LA's inner city gangs are moving out to that area and bringing the problems with them, which is why LA's crimte rate is dropping but places like Riverside and San Bernardino are seeing increases; stay far away from Moreno Valley or Compton East as I call it. Tons of families move out there so they can buy a house, not the best place if you're young and single and are looking for an active lifestyle. The closer you are too the coast the better but the more expensive. It's basically the area people go to escape the high housing prices of the coast b/c they want a big single family home.
You would probably need at least $2-3k to get housing for the 1st month, not sure how much moving expenses would be b/c that depends on how you get here and what you bring. utilities will be higher inland b/c you need AC all summer long in Riverside, you don't really need it near the coast. CA has some of the highest electricity rates but we also use the least amount per capita in the nation so it probably just evens out compared to everywhere else. Gas will be higher once you get here but it's reasonable right now. Last summer it hit $3.50 where I live in San Diego and was close to the same in Riverside. And there is little public transportation in that area so a good car is essential. I think if you had at least 4-5K you should be good for a month or two. But I would research Riverside a little more and make sure it's what you are looking for.

How can I make my Cattelya Orchid bloom?
Question:
I have 2 Cattelya Orchids- one for 3 years and one for 2 years now. I had them in Florida inside with a bright filtered light window and gave them orchid grow fertilizer about every week and a half-2wks. They've grown big (trippled in size actually) and seem to do well in orchid bark mix with spagnum moss around the top surface. I've moved to Indiana 2-3 months ago and they again have a perfect window and seem to be doing just fine. Good sturdy, green leaves, and I let them dry out between waterings and then drench them good leaching the medium each time. But, even using Orchid Bloom instead of orchid grow fertilizer, I can't seem to get them to bloom! What else can I do? Am I doing something wrong?
Answer:
Hi,
Water it the Malaysian way, with water after rinsing your vegetable, rice or fish. Fish or seafood water is best.

What kind of lizard is in my yard?
Question:
Today I saw these lizards in my yard and I can't find a picture of them or find out what they are. They were small, about 4-5" total length with a brownish body and a red head. The head wasn't bright red, but definitely had a red cast to it. They looked similar to the small green lizards you can buy at a pet store, but bigger. I live in southern Indiana on the Kentucky border. Does anyone know what these are? Thanks!

Do you think an Indiana Jones Theme would be good for an eighth grade promotion dance?
Question:
I'm graduating eighth grade soon and the seventh graders are going to decorate the dance for us. We have two choices for the theme: Either Nighttime or Indiana Jones. One of the seventh grade teachers will, I just know it, decorate it with a bunch of bright yellow paper stars and make it look like it was for a bunch of third graders. I reckon she can't really do that to an Indiana Jones theme, unless she really messes it up, but the other seventh grade teacher will make sure she doesn't if we go with that theme. Do you think Indiana Jones is a good idea, or should the eighth grade class come up with a different theme? If so, any ideas?
Answer:
Great idea! I like how people these days think outside of the box.
But there can be plenty of themes to choose from if this one didn't work out:
--80's
--Space
--Island Paradise
There are loads more. Just use your imagination!

what is the indiana law about headlights and brightness?
Question:
i drive a mitsubishi eclipse and bought halo headlights and they arent very bright so i am thinking about replacing the bulbs with brighter ones. so i want to know how high i can go, or how bright they can be. i've seen them up to like 13000k, which is probly the brightest and its purple. but the brightest white i've seen is 5900k so what u think? help me out wit the laws too please! i cant find them
Answer:
I am not sure. I think that you can have the headlights as long as they both work. I dont think there is a certain power output level that you would have to worry about. just like its not a law you have to have highbeam lights. as long as your normal headlights function its ok. If there is a law then you would have to contact the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. or the DOT for more info.

I live in northern Indiana. Today I saw a berry plant about 6 feet tall in the woods. It had blueish berries?
Question:
the plant was very bright purple on the stem and the stalk was about an inch in diameter. It had rather large leaves, they were green and oval in shape 12 inches long and 6 inches wide were the largest leaves. Football shaped coming to a point. With smooth edges. The berries hung from the top of the plant and were dark blue and had about 20 berries per bunch. this plant was everywhere and I have no idea what it is. I considered picking the berries because they look like smaller blueberries. (a little larger than a quarter of an inch in diameter. The bright red to magenta colored stalk has made me cautious. Does anyone know what this is? Thanks
Answer:
It sounds like it might be part of the Viburnum family. Many of these have red stalks and blue berries. I'm sending a link on the family with very good descriptions of the plants. Scroll down the page to evergreen or semi-evergreen and see if any of these fit.

Do you want to know what I think of the Dallas Mavericks?
Question:
Pat Riley first promised it 11 years ago: a Miami Heat victory parade down Biscayne Boulevard. Shaquille O'Neal guaranteed it two summers ago, vowing to add a fourth ring to his big hand in his new city.
And with one tenacious game after another in these NBA finals, Dwyane Wade delivered both.
The Miami Heat are champions for the first time, thanks to two basketball greats who made good on their promises -- and the next great one, whose promise seems unlimited.
The man they call "Flash" had 36 points and 10 rebounds in the teeth of a hostile Dallas crowd Tuesday night, capping his magnificent playoffs and the Heat's sizzling four-game comeback by leading Miami past the Mavericks 95-92.
"It's one of the best feelings, next to my wife and my son, that I've ever had in my life," Wade said. "I'm going to live it up!"
The Heat roared back from a two-game deficit to win the NBA finals in six. Wade, the obvious finals MVP, cemented his superstardom with a dominant four-game performance capped by four pressure-packed, final-minute free throws in the same building where Miami went down two games to none.
He even missed a pair in the waning seconds, giving Dallas a final shot to tie. But Jason Terry missed an open look for 3, and Wade grabbed the rebound and flung it joyously into the stands as time expired.
Where there's a Wade, there's a will. His grace added a fifth ring to Riley's finger -- third-most among NBA coaches -- and the first jewelry in Shaq's collection with no connection to Kobe Bryant.
"The great Pat Riley told me we were going to win today," said O'Neal, who had nine points and 12 rebounds. "I didn't have the best game. But D-Wade's been doing it all year. He's the best player ever."
Dirk Nowitzki had 29 points and 15 rebounds for the Mavs, but Dallas couldn't manage the last basket it needed to topple Wade's determination. With their crowd booing every call and seething with every missed opportunity, the Mavs missed their own chance for their first title.
A day after the Carolina Hurricanes became first-time champions in the NHL by winning the Stanley Cup, Miami also made history.
The Heat finished the franchise's 18th season with one of the league's greatest rallies in a finals, and the last period of Game 6 was appropriately gritty.
Miami nursed a narrow lead, taking an 89-85 advantage with 2:36 left on two jumpers by James Posey. Jerry Stackhouse cut it to a point with a 3-pointer in his first game back from suspension, but after Udonis Haslem and Josh Howard traded jumpers, Wade hit two free throws with 26 seconds left.
Erick Dampier then fumbled a pass on Dallas' next possession, and Wade fought to get the loose ball. He hit two more free throws with 17.7 seconds to play, but after Howard hit a pair, Wade missed two with 10.3 seconds left.
But Terry missed an open 3-pointer. It was the last of 11 straight misses, and the final disappointment in the Mavs' otherwise remarkable season.
"We made a lot of progress this year," said Dallas' Avery Johnson, the NBA's coach of the year. "We aimed high this year, and I told them that a lot of teams have to go through this. This will really hurt this summer. I hope they work out hard, make me a better coach. I'm ready to try it again."
Miami hung onto the clincher in front of more than 20,000 Dallas fans still furious at every NBA official and commissioner David Stern for the Mavs' three losses in Miami last week. Owner Mark Cuban stoked the furor with his antics after Game 5, which resulted in a $250,000 fine earlier Tuesday.
But while the Mavs worried about every perceived slight, the Heat focused on fulfilling the promises of Riley and O'Neal.
"I came to Miami because of this young fella right here," O'Neal said, indicating Wade. "I knew I wanted to make him better."
Dallas' fans both booed and cheered the trophy presentation, and Stern was jeered repeatedly.
Cuban stole the finals spotlight earlier in the day, getting socked with the fine for his complaints about the officials and general conspiracy theory. All of Dallas caught the Mavs' us-against-the-world vibe: Signs supporting Cuban and suggesting a league conspiracy against the Mavs dotted the stands for Game 6, and fans screamed at Stern in his courtside seat.
But the series actually was controlled by Wade, who ascended to the most elite tier of NBA stars. He scored 121 points in three victories in Miami before capping it with one more tenacious win.
Riley wiped away tears while hugging his players, and Miami crowded onto the hastily assembled podium with the excitement of a high-school graduation.
Riley, who won his first ring since 1988, claimed he never considered the possibility Miami wouldn't finish with four straight wins.
"I packed one suit, one shirt and one tie," he said before the game. "That's it."
Riley tied John Kundla with his fifth title as a head coach. Only Phil Jackson and Red Auerbach have more, with nine apiece.
O'Neal, who fought foul trouble, was held to two of his worst career playoff games in the earlier Dallas debacles, and he endured another extraordinary struggle at the free-throw line in the series. None of it will matter to the Big Champ: He'll take a special pride in winning his first ring without Bryant.
Their partnership resulted in three titles and four finals trips for the Los Angeles Lakers, but their clashing egos caused a power struggle that led to Shaq's trade. O'Neal has no such problems with Wade, and their cohesion peaked in Miami's four finals wins.
Riley, the slick-haired strategist who led the Lakers to four titles in the 1980s, now has vindication from those who criticized his decision to take over the club from coach Stan Van Gundy early in the season.
Leaning on Riley's savvy in coaching veterans and defense, the Heat rolled through the postseason with surprising force -- never even facing a seventh game. Riley now has seven rings, counting his single championships as a player and an assistant coach.
And the Heat's roster is studded with stars who never won a title. Point guard Gary Payton reached the finals with three teams before finally grabbing the ring, while Alonzo Mourning played through 13 seasons, two retirements and a serious kidney ailment for a championship.
Antoine Walker, Jason Williams, Posey, Haslem -- all endured serious career troubles, and now they're all champions, too.
Baron Davis knew his tender hamstring would limit him, so Stephen Jackson took a huge load off Golden State's do-everything star.
Davis and Jackson shot the ragtag Warriors right into the second round, capping perhaps the NBA's biggest playoff upset with yet one more memorable performance on their home floor.
Davis willed his team on one good leg, shaking off a strained hamstring to score 20 points, Jackson made a franchise playoff-record seven 3-pointers, and Golden State became the first No. 8 seed to capture a best-of-seven playoff series with a 111-86 victory over the NBA-best Dallas Mavericks in Game 6 on Thursday night.
Whoa, Nellie, what a shocker!
"We made NBA history tonight and that's the best thing about it. We did it as a team," Davis said. "I'm so proud of my teammates and proud to be a part of this franchise."
Coach Don Nelson's emotional bunch of castoffs beat his old organization by holding likely league MVP Dirk Nowitzki to eight points and 2-for-13 shooting, after he saved the Mavs with 30 points in their six-point Game 5 win Tuesday. The Warriors, making their first playoff appearance in 13 years, will open the second round Monday night at either Houston or Utah.
"This is a pretty special place to be right now," Nelson said.
Jackson -- who avoided a suspension for Game 6 after two ejections in the series -- hit four 3-pointers during a decisive 24-3 third-quarter run and finished with a playoff career-high 33 points.
"I wanted to be aggressive," Jackson said. "Baron came out and told me he wasn't feeling as good as he had in previous games, and he wanted me to carry us. I wanted to stay focused, not worry about calls, not get too emotional, just bring my energy with my play."
Davis also added 10 rebounds and six assists. He sat down with 2:19 to play, throwing his arms in the air to the fans who chanted "MVP!" When the final buzzer sounded, the Warriors hugged as confetti streamed onto the court.
Andris Biedrins had 12 points and 12 rebounds, not to mention a handful of key hustle plays, Matt Barnes took advantage of his first start of the series with 16 points, 11 rebounds and seven assists, and Jason Richardson added 15 points, five rebounds and four assists.
"It feels great, that's the only words I can say," Richardson said. "I don't know when I have to pinch myself or wake up from this dream. This is everything I wanted. I wanted this for our fans, for our organization, for ourselves. We work hard and we deserve it."
Josh Howard scored 20 points and Jerry Stackhouse had 14 of his 20 points in the first quarter for the 67-win Mavericks, who along with volatile owner Mark Cuban had high hopes of going deep in the postseason after their remarkable regular-season showing.
The Warriors became only the third eighth seed to upset the No. 1 and the first since the opening round went from best-of-five to the current format. The Denver Nuggets (1994) and the New York Knicks (1999) are the only other teams to win a series.
After years of failure and its share of unsuccessful personnel moves, Golden State is suddenly as big in the Bay Area as Barry Bonds' home run chase across the water in San Francisco.
"Baron toughed it out," Barnes said. "He's our leader and nothing's going to stop him right now. We've got a lot of talent and a lot of heart and we're looking to do a lot more damage."
The Warriors lured Nelson out of retirement to turn around a franchise that hadn't been to the postseason since he took them there in 1994 during his first stint as coach, dropping former Stanford coach Mike Montgomery in late August after two losing seasons.
Back home, Golden State won again behind its deafening, towel-waving crowd that Mavs coach and former Warrior Avery Johnson described this way: "If you haven't been to the playoffs in 13 years, your fans are going to be pretty crazy."
And the "We Believe" mantra that now rocks Oakland -- Mickael Pietrus led the team out of the locker room holding one of the bright yellow T-shirts sporting the logo -- has even caught the attention of celebrities like rapper Snoop Dogg, popular guitarist Carlos Santana, actors Woody Harrelson, Owen Wilson and Kate Hudson, and golfer Fred Couples. They were all in the stands for the clincher -- and a few even headed to the celebratory locker room afterward. Ron Artest stopped by to offer his best, too.
"The fans gave us so much energy," Richardson said. "It felt great that we actually put them away like that. We played great defense tonight."
Nowitzki missed his first eight shots, bricking consecutive 3-point tries late in the second quarter before hitting a 16-footer for his first basket of the game with 38 seconds left in the period. Dallas trailed 50-48 at the break but couldn't match the Warriors' energy in the third. The Mavs went 5:07 without scoring as Golden State turned it into a rout, leading 86-63 going into the final 12 minutes.
"We were there at halftime," Johnson said. "We were only down two. We just came out and had one of our worst third quarters this year. ... This is a very disappointing end to the season."
The Warriors traded for Jackson in January in an eight-player swap with the Indiana Pacers to pair him with a healthy Davis as this playoff-starved franchise tried -- and ultimately succeeded -- to end the NBA's longest postseason drought.
Johnson, groomed by Nellie to be a head coach, said the Warriors had "10,000 pounds on their right arms up there in Oakland" to close out a series Golden State led 3-1, but 20,677 screaming fans from every corner of Oracle Arena put all the pressure on the cold-shooting Mavs.
The Warriors hadn't won a best-of-seven series in 31 years, since beating Detroit in a first-round series in 1975-76 -- the year after winning their only NBA championship in California. Golden State had lost its last five best-of-sevens and hadn't won any playoff series since beating San Antonio 3-1 in the first round in 1990-91.
Johnson brought his team back to California immediately after Game 5 so the Mavs could get more comfortable in the Warriors' raucous confines, while Golden State spent the night in Dallas.
Dallas' first seven made field goals were 3s, 4-of-6 from Stackhouse in the opening period, and the Mavs were 0-for-14 from 2-point range before Jason Terry's jumper at the 11:22 mark of the second quarter.
"Great regular season, but a disappointing finish in the playoffs," Terry said. "We all take fault in our mistakes, but you have to give credit where credit is due. That's a hot team."
Barnes earned his first start of the series over Monta Ellis and played through a pulled right hamstring, just like Davis.
The Mavs, who lost in last year's NBA finals, became the first time to win 65 games and fail to win at least one playoff series. Even worse, it came against Nelson, who spent 10 seasons helping taking Dallas from among the league's worst teams to one of the best.
"This is not like last year was," Cuban said. "Losing the finals was really painful. This is just the first round."
That's what I think about Dallas.

What kind of butterfly or moth is it?!?
Question:
I live in Indiana and yesterday, when leaving my apartment, stuck to the roof of the hall was a BEAUTIFUL bright green butterfly or moth. Its wings were spread out and across the top of its back was a dark brown twig-like marking. I guess it's supposed to blend in with leaves, and that's exactly what it looks like- a leaf. Also, I thought it was kind of on the large side. I'd say its wingspan was approximately 4"-5". What kind is it?!
Answer:
Sounds like a Luna Moth

Should The lakers and the pacers make this trade?
Question:
Well first off Jermaine o'neal said this in a interview I would welcome a trade to the Lakers," said O'Neal. "Indiana has given me the opportunity to establish myself as a really good player in this league, but they're into rebuilding and going really young, and I'm just not in a position physically to go through another five to six years with a lot of losses and a lot of down time.What are the lakers doing ? They need to do what Boston did trade there young talent for a vet.Player to win Kobe is right Jerry Buss is a idiot.Ok they feel like there asking for to much o'neal right.Ok then ask for O'neal and Granger.The pacers already have Dunleavy plus with odom and Bynum bright future.Good trade i think Andrew Bynum and Lamar odom for o'neal and Granger fair trade I think.You can always go out and draft another big man or I would try to trade V.Radmanvoic for Eaton Thomas there's a good center right there.If they have to they need to get another team involved maybe like New york
Answer:
One problem, Laker's GM Mitch Fruitcake doesn't want to let go of his precious Andrew Bynum, the only way for this Jo trade to work is if Fruitcake decides to trade Bynum, that's what Indiana wants.

What teams are your final four (NCAA)?
Question:
I think North Carolina, Wisconsin, Georgetown, and UCLA. Any disagreements? Agreements? What teams do you think will be in the final four? As a HUGE Indiana fan, it pains me to say that I think we will lose to North Carolina. I think we might be able to get past Arkansas, but it won't be as bright of an outcome for the Hoosiers against North Carolina. Hit me up.
Answer:
Wisconsin is not going to make. Its going to be UNC, Texas, Kansas, and UCLA
