Umm, how about looking at the API documentation, specifically for the
methods contained withing the String class?

There is actually a method called 'substring' which does exactly what you
want.

You can download a copy of the API docs from http://java.sun.com.

How about:

String str = s.toLowerCase();
if (str.indexOf("find me")>-1){
System.out.println("Found you!");
}
