Estimate \Es"ti*mate\, n.       A valuing or rating by the mind, without actually measuring,       weighing, or the like; rough or approximate calculation; as,       an estimate of the cost of a building, or of the quantity of       water in a pond.                   Weigh success in a moral balance, and our whole                estimate is changed.                              --J.

Thus we speak of the esteem                   of the wise and good as a thing greatly to be desired.                   Estimation seems to waver between the two. In our                   version of the Scriptures it is used simply for                   estimate; as, [bd]If he be poorer than thy                   estimation.[b8] --Lev. xxvii. 8. In other cases, it                   verges toward esteem; as, [bd]I know him to be of                   worth and worthy estimation.[b8] --Shak. It will                   probably settle down at last on this latter sense.                   [bd]Esteem is the value we place upon some degree of                   worth. It is higher than simple approbation, which is                   a decision of judgment. It is the commencement of                   affection.[b8] --Gogan.                               No; dear as freedom is, and in my heart's Just                            estimation prized above all price. --Cowper.

Esteem has reference to the intrinsic or                moral worth of a person or thing. Thus, we esteem a man                for his kindness, or his uniform integrity. In this                sense it implies a mingled sentiment of respect and                attachment. We esteem it an honor to live in a free                country. See {Appreciate}.

Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code          /eb's*-dik/, /eb'see`dik/, /eb'k*-dik/,       /ee`bik'dik`/, /*-bik'dik`/ (EBCDIC) A proprietary 8-bit       {character set} used on {IBM} {dinosaurs}, the {AS/400}, and       {e-Server}.          EBCDIC is an extension to 8 bits of BCDIC (Binary Coded       Decimal Interchange Code), an earlier 6-bit character set used       on IBM computers.   EBCDIC was [first?] used on the successful       {System/360}, anounced on 1964-04-07, and survived for many       years despite the almost universal adoption of {ASCII}       elsewhere.   Was this concern for {backward compatibility} or,       as many believe, a marketing strategy to lock in IBM       customers?          IBM created 57 national EBCDIC character sets and an       International Reference Version (IRV) based on {ISO 646} (and       hence ASCII compatible).   Documentation on these was not       easily accessible making international exchange of data even       between IBM mainframes a tricky task.          US EBCDIC uses more or less the same characters as {ASCII},       but different {code points}.   It has non-contiguous letter       sequences, some ASCII characters do not exist in EBCDIC       (e.g. {square brackets}), and EBCDIC has some ({cent sign},       {not sign}) not in ASCII.   As a consequence, the translation       between ASCII and EBCDIC was never officially completely       defined.   Users defined one translation which resulted in a       so-called de-facto EBCDIC containing all the characters of       ASCII, that all ASCII-related programs use.          Some printers, telex machines, and even electronic cash       registers can speak EBCDIC, but only so they can converse with       IBM mainframes.          For an in-depth discussion of character code sets, and full       translation tables, see {Guidelines on 8-bit character codes       (ftp://ftp.ulg.ac.be/pub/docs/iso8859/iso8859.networking)}.          {A history of character codes       (http://tronweb.super-nova.co.jp/characcodehist.html)}.          Here is a simple translation table:             Least significant nibble ->             0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F       0   ... controls ...       1       2       3                        ... controls ...       4         â ä à á ã å ç ñ ¢ . < ( + |       5   & é ê ë è í î ï ì ß ! $ * ) ; ^       6   - / Â Ä À Á Ã Å Ç Ñ ¦ , % _ > ?       7   ø É Ê Ë È Í Î Ï Ì ` : # @ ' = "       8   Ø a b c d e f g h i « » ð ý þ ±       9   ° j k l m n o p q r ª º æ ¸ Æ ¤       A   µ ~ s t u v w x y z ¡ ¿ Ð [ Þ ®       B   ¬ £ ¥ · © § ¶ ¼ ½ ¾ Ý ¨ ¯ ] ´ ×       C   { A B C D E F G H I ­ ô ö ò ó õ       D   } J K L M N O P Q R ¹ û ü ù ú ÿ       E   \ ÷ S T U V W X Y Z ² Ô Ö Ò Ó Õ       F   0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 ³ Û Ü Ù Ú          E.g. the EBCDIC code for "A" is {hexadecimal} "C1".          (2002-03-03)

Extended Data Out Dynamic Random Access Memory          (EDO DRAM, EDO RAM) A type of {DRAM} designed to       access nearby memory locations faster than {FPM DRAM}.          Extended Data Out DRAM (EDO-DRAM) allows the data outputs to       be kept active after the CAS\ signal goes inactive, using an       additional signal OE\ to control the data outputs.   This can       be used in {pipelined} systems for overlapping accesses where       the next cycle is started before the data from the last cycle       is removed from the bus.          EDO DRAM is primarily used with {Intel}'s {Pentium} processors       since with slower processors there is no significant       performance gain.   To make use of the advanced features of EDO       an appropriate {chipset}, such as {Triton}, must be used.   In       early 1995, EDO DRAM was available for computers from       {Micron}, {Gateway 2000}, and {Intel Corporation}; since then       other manufactures followed suit.          Note that in comparison to {Burst EDO} EDO is sometimes       referred to as "Standard EDO".          (1996-06-25)

extended memory          Memory above the first {megabyte} of {address space}       in an {IBM PC} with an {80286} or later processor.          Extended memory is not directly available in {real mode}, only       through {EMS}, {UMB}, {XMS}, or {HMA}; only applications       executing in {protected mode} can use extended memory       directly.   In this case, the extended memory is provided by a       supervising {protected-mode} {operating system} such as       {Microsoft Windows}.   The processor makes this memory       available through a system of {global descriptor tables} and       {local descriptor tables}.   The memory is "protected" in the       sense that memory assigned a local descriptor cannot be       accessed by another program without causing a hardware {trap}.       This prevents programs running in protected mode from       interfering with each other's memory.          A {protected-mode} {operating system} such as Windows can also       run {real-mode} programs and provide {expanded memory} to       them.   {DOS Protected Mode Interface} is {Microsoft}'s       prescribed method for an {MS-DOS} program to access extended       memory under a {multitasking} environment.          Having extended memory does not necessarily mean that you have       more than one megabyte of memory since the reserved memory       area may be partially empty.   In fact, if your 386 or higher       uses extended memory as expanded memory then that part is not       in excess of 1Mb.          See also {conventional memory}.          (1996-01-10)

Eshtemoa       obedience, a town in the mountains of Judah (Josh. 21:14; 1 Chr.       6:57), which was allotted, with the land round it, to the       priests. It was frequented by David and his followers during       their wanderings; and he sent presents of the spoil of the       Amalekites to his friends there (1 Sam. 30:28). It is identified       with es-Semu'a, a village about 3 1/2 miles east of Socoh, and 7       or 8 miles south of Hebron, around which there are ancient       remains of the ruined city. It is the centre of the "south       country" or Negeb. It is also called "Eshtemoh" (Josh. 15:50).
From Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's) [hitchcock]:
Eshtemoa, the bosom of a woman

Three years after independence - and two    years after the introduction of the kroon - Estonians are beginning to    reap tangible benefits; inflation, though still high, was brought down    to about 2% per month in second half 1994; production declines have    bottomed out with estimated growth of 4% in 1994; and living standards    are rising. Economic restructuring has been dramatic. By 1994 the    service sector accounted for over 55% of GDP, while the once-dominant    heavy industrial sector continues to shrink. The private sector is    growing rapidly; the share of the state enterprises in the economy has    steadily declined and by late 1994 accounted for only about 40% of    GDP. Estonia's foreign trade has shifted rapidly from East to West;    the Western industrialized countries now account for two-thirds of    foreign trade.       National product: GDP - purchasing power parity - $10.4 billion (1994    estimate as extrapolated from World Bank estimate for 1992)       National product real growth rate: 4% (1994 est.)       National product per capita: $6,460 (1994 est.)       Inflation rate (consumer prices): 3.3% per month (1994 average)       Unemployment rate: about 2% in 1994 (official estimate but large    number of underemployed workers)       Budget:    revenues: $643 million    expenditures: $639 million, including capital expenditures of $NA    (1993 est.)       Exports: $1.65 billion (f.o.b., 1994)    commodities: textile 14%, food products 11%, vehicles 11%, metals 11%    (1993)    partners: Russia, Finland, Sweden, Germany       Imports: $1 billion (c.i.f., 1994)    commodities: machinery 18%, fuels 15%, vehicles 14%, textiles 10%    (1993)    partners: Finland, Russia, Germany, Sweden       External debt: $650 million (end of 1991)       Industrial production: growth rate -27% (1993)       Electricity:    capacity: 3,420,000 kW    production: 11.3 billion kWh    consumption per capita: 6,528 kWh (1993)       Industries: oil shale, shipbuilding, phosphates, electric motors,    excavators, cement, furniture, clothing, textiles, paper, shoes,    apparel       Agriculture: accounts for 10% of GDP; employs 20% of work force; very    efficient by Soviet standards; net exports of meat, fish, dairy    products, and potatoes; imports of feedgrains for livestock; fruits    and vegetables       Illicit drugs: transshipment point for illicit drugs from Central and    Southwest Asia and Latin America to Western Europe; very limited    illicit opium producer; mostly for domestic consumption       Economic aid:    recipient: US commitments, including Ex-Im (1992), $10 million       Currency: 1 Estonian kroon (EEK) = 100 cents (introduced in August    1992)       Exchange rates: kroons (EEK) per US$1 - 12.25 (January 1995); note -    kroons are tied to the German Deutschmark at a fixed rate of 8 to 1       Fiscal year: calendar year       Estonia:Transportation       Railroads:    total: 1,030 km common carrier lines only; does not include dedicated    industrial lines    broad gauge: 1,030 km 1.520-m gauge (1990)       Highways:    total: 30,300 km    paved or graveled: 29,200 km    unpaved: earth 1,100 km (1990)       Inland waterways: 500 km perennially navigable       Pipelines: natural gas 420 km (1992)       Ports: Haapsalu, Narva, Novotallin, Paldiski, Parnu, Tallinn       Merchant marine:    total: 65 ships (1,000 GRT or over) totaling 415,332 GRT/532,749 DWT    ships by type: bulk 6, cargo 44, container 2, oil tanker 2,    roll-on/roll-off cargo 7, short-sea passenger 4       Airports:    total: 22    with paved runways 2,438 to 3,047 m: 7    with paved runways 914 to 1,523 m: 3    with unpaved runways 2,438 to 3,047 m: 1    with unpaved runways 1,524 to 2,438 m: 2    with unpaved runways 914 to 1,523 m: 4    with unpaved runways under 914 m: 5       Estonia:Communications       Telephone system: about 400,000 telephones; 246 telephones/1,000    persons; telephone system is antiquated; improvements are being made    piecemeal, with emphasis on business needs and international    connections; there are still about 150,000 unfulfilled requests for    telephone service    local: NA    intercity: NA    international: international traffic is carried to the other former    USSR republics by land line or microwave and to other countries partly    by leased connection to the Moscow international gateway switch, and    partly by a new Tallinn-Helsinki fiber optic submarine cable which    gives Estonia access to international circuits everywhere; substantial    investment has been made in cellular systems which are operational    throughout Estonia and also Latvia and which have access to the    international packet switched digital network via Helsinki       Radio:    broadcast stations: AM NA, FM NA, shortwave 0    radios: NA       Television:    broadcast stations: 3; note - provide Estonian programs as well as    Moscow Ostenkino's first and second programs    televisions: NA       Estonia:Defense Forces       Branches: Ground Forces, Navy, Air and Air Defense Force (not    officially sanctioned), Maritime Border Guard, Volunteer Defense    League (Kaitseliit), Security Forces (internal and border troops),    Coast Guard       Manpower availability: males age 15-49 396,588; males fit for military    service 311,838; males reach military age (18) annually 11,915 (1995    est.)       Defense expenditures: exchange rate conversion - $34.1 million, almost    5% of the overall State budget and 1.5% of GDP (1995)
