The Quadratic Formula uses the "a", "b", and "c" from "ax2 + bx + c", where "a", "b", and "c" are just numbers.   The Formula is derived from the process of completing the square, and is formally stated as:

For ax2 + bx + c = 0, the value of x is given by

x = [ –b ± sqrt(b^2 – 4ac) ] / 2a

Support Fisher House
The Fisher House program is a unique private-public partnership that supports America's military in their time of need by providing homes close to a loved one during the hospitalization for an unexpected illness, disease, or injury.

There are currently 31 houses located on the grounds of every major military medical center and several VA medical centers. These houses will play a critical role in caring for casualties from Operation Iraqi Freedom. Donations will be used to help meet the cost of lodging for a family whose loved one was injured in Operation Enduring Freedom or Operation Iraqi Freedom. There is a limit to the number of families who can stay in a Fisher House and program is committed to help provide lodging for families who must find commercial lodging, because the Fisher House is full.

Good Morning Radix! You have another fantastic thread. I really like the "Cold as Ice" song. Good morning to our military and good morning to the whole Canteen crew.

Warm up exercise for today . . . . .
(Another Rain Joke for Kathy)

One summer evening during a violent thunderstorm a mother was tucking her small boy into bed.
She was about to turn off the light when he asked with a tremor in his voice, "Mommy, will
you sleep with me tonight?" The mother smiled and gave him a reassuring hug. "I can't
dear," she said. "I have to sleep in Daddy's room."

A long silence was broken at last by a shaken little voice saying, "The big sissy."

I just got back from the "Road Trip". What a neat place.

Of course I had to have breakfast while I was there.

Good morning from VA Beach!

Hell of a news day yesterday huh? Husband called from work last night and I told him the news, he was surprised as he hadn't been near a TV all day.

Busy as always here as hubby goes on leave Thurs, then Fri he has his re enlistment ceremony at the ships picnic. Kids are doing good, bugging us about going to the beach again after we went last weekend.

Have a great day everyone!

Morning EG. How's it going?

We had a storm move through our area last night. Got a little bit of rain to help feed the plants. Temps didn't go down much. But will be in the mid-to-upper 80s this week. Rumor has it we may get some more thunderstorms roll through today.
