Eastern Church \Eastern Church\       That portion of the Christian church which prevails in the       countries once comprised in the Eastern Roman Empire and the       countries converted to Christianity by missionaries from       them. Its full official title is {The Orthodox Catholic       Apostolic Eastern Church}. It became estranged from the       Western, or Roman, Church over the question of papal       supremacy and the doctrine of the filioque, and a separation,       begun in the latter part of the 9th century, became final in       1054. The Eastern Church consists of twelve (thirteen if the       Bulgarian Church be included) mutually independent churches       (including among these the Hellenic Church, or Church of       Greece, and the Russian Church), using the vernacular (or       some ancient form of it) in divine service and varying in       many points of detail, but standing in full communion with       each other and united as equals in a great federation. The       highest five authorities are the patriarch of Constantinople,       or ecumenical patriarch (whose position is not one of       supremacy, but of precedence), the patriarch of Alexandria,       the patriarch of Jerusalem, the patriarch of Antioch, and the       Holy Synod of Russia. The Eastern Church accepts the first       seven ecumenical councils (and is hence styled only       schismatic, not heretical, by the Roman Catholic Church), has       as its creed the Niceno-Constantinopolitan (without the later       addition of the filioque, which, with the doctrine it       represents, the church decisively rejects), baptizes infants       with trine immersion, makes confirmation follow immediately       upon baptism, administers the Communion in both kinds (using       leavened bread) and to infants as well as adults, permits its       secular clergy to marry before ordination and to keep their       wives afterward, but not to marry a second time, selects its       bishops from the monastic clergy only, recognizes the offices       of bishop, priest, and deacon as the three necessary degrees       of orders, venerates relics and icons, and has an elaborate       ritual.

See {Telegraph}, and {-scope}.]       An optical instrument used in viewing distant objects, as the       heavenly bodies.          Note: A telescope assists the eye chiefly in two ways; first,                by enlarging the visual angle under which a distant                object is seen, and thus magnifying that object; and,                secondly, by collecting, and conveying to the eye, a                larger beam of light than would enter the naked organ,                thus rendering objects distinct and visible which would                otherwise be indistinct and or invisible. Its essential                parts are the object glass, or concave mirror, which                collects the beam of light, and forms an image of the                object, and the eyeglass, which is a microscope, by                which the image is magnified.          {Achromatic telescope}. See under {Achromatic}.          {Aplanatic telescope}, a telescope having an aplanatic             eyepiece.          {Astronomical telescope}, a telescope which has a simple             eyepiece so constructed or used as not to reverse the             image formed by the object glass, and consequently             exhibits objects inverted, which is not a hindrance in             astronomical observations.          {Cassegrainian telescope}, a reflecting telescope invented by             Cassegrain, which differs from the Gregorian only in             having the secondary speculum convex instead of concave,             and placed nearer the large speculum. The Cassegrainian             represents objects inverted; the Gregorian, in their             natural position. The Melbourne telescope (see Illust.             under {Reflecting telescope}, below) is a Cassegrainian             telescope.          {Dialytic telescope}. See under {Dialytic}.          {Equatorial telescope}. See the Note under {Equatorial}.          {Galilean telescope}, a refracting telescope in which the             eyeglass is a concave instead of a convex lens, as in the             common opera glass. This was the construction originally             adopted by Galileo, the inventor of the instrument. It             exhibits the objects erect, that is, in their natural             positions.          {Gregorian telescope}, a form of reflecting telescope. See             under {Gregorian}.          {Herschelian telescope}, a reflecting telescope of the form             invented by Sir William Herschel, in which only one             speculum is employed, by means of which an image of the             object is formed near one side of the open end of the             tube, and to this the eyeglass is applied directly.          {Newtonian telescope}, a form of reflecting telescope. See             under {Newtonian}.          {Photographic telescope}, a telescope specially constructed             to make photographs of the heavenly bodies.          {Prism telescope}. See {Teinoscope}.          {Reflecting telescope}, a telescope in which the image is             formed by a speculum or mirror (or usually by two             speculums, a large one at the lower end of the telescope,             and the smaller one near the open end) instead of an             object glass. See {Gregorian, Cassegrainian, Herschelian,             [and] Newtonian, telescopes}, above.          {Refracting telescope}, a telescope in which the image is             formed by refraction through an object glass.          {Telescope carp} (Zo[94]l.), the telescope fish.          {Telescope fish} (Zo[94]l.), a monstrous variety of the             goldfish having very protuberant eyes.          {Telescope fly} (Zo[94]l.), any two-winged fly of the genus             {Diopsis}, native of Africa and Asia. The telescope flies             are remarkable for having the eyes raised on very long             stalks.          {Telescope shell} (Zo[94]l.), an elongated gastropod             ({Cerithium telescopium}) having numerous flattened             whorls.          {Telescope sight} (Firearms), a slender telescope attached to             the barrel, having cross wires in the eyepiece and used as             a sight.          {Terrestrial telescope}, a telescope whose eyepiece has one             or two lenses more than the astronomical, for the purpose             of inverting the image, and exhibiting objects erect.
From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
Equatorial \E`qua*to"ri*al\, n. (Astron.)       An instrument consisting of a telescope so mounted as to have       two axes of motion at right angles to each other, one of them       parallel to the axis of the earth, and each carrying a       graduated circle, the one for measuring declination, and the       other right ascension, or the hour angle, so that the       telescope may be directed, even in the daytime, to any star       or other object whose right ascension and declination are       known. The motion in right ascension is sometimes       communicated by clockwork, so as to keep the object       constantly in the field of the telescope. Called also an       {equatorial telescope}.          Note: The term equatorial, or equatorial instrument, is                sometimes applied to any astronomical instrument which                has its principal axis of rotation parallel to the axis                of the earth.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Easter       originally a Saxon word (Eostre), denoting a goddess of the       Saxons, in honour of whom sacrifices were offered about the time       of the Passover. Hence the name came to be given to the festival       of the Resurrection of Christ, which occured at the time of the       Passover. In the early English versions this word was frequently       used as the translation of the Greek pascha (the Passover). When       the Authorized Version (1611) was formed, the word "passover"       was used in all passages in which this word pascha occurred,       except in Act 12:4. In the Revised Version the proper word,       "passover," is always used.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Esdraelon       the Greek form of the Hebrew "Jezreel," the name of the great       plain (called by the natives Merj Ibn Amer; i.e., "the meadow of       the son of Amer") which stretches across Central Palestine from       the Jordan to the Mediterraanean, separating the mountain ranges       of Carmel and Samaria from those of Galilee, extending about 14       miles from north to south, and 9 miles from east to west. It is       drained by "that ancient river" the Kishon, which flows westward       to the Mediterranean. From the foot of Mount Tabor it branches       out into three valleys, that on the north passing between Tabor       and Little Hermon (Judg. 4:14); that on the south between Mount       Gilboa and En-gannim (2 Kings 9:27); while the central portion,       the "valley of Jezreel" proper, runs into the Jordan valley       (which is about 1,000 feet lower than Esdraelon) by Bethshean.       Here Gideon gained his great victory over the Midianites (Judg.       7:1-25). Here also Barak defeated Sisera, and Saul's army was       defeated by the Philistines, and king Josiah, while fighting in       disguise against Necho, king of Egypt, was slain (2 Chr.       35:20-27; 2 Kings 23-29). This plain has been well called the       "battle-field of Palestine." "It has been a chosen place for       encampment in every contest carried on in this country, from the       days of Nebuchadnezzar, king of the Assyrians, in the history of       whose wars with Arphaxad it is mentioned as the Great Plain of       Esdraelon, until the disastrous march of Napoleon Bonaparte from       Egypt into Syria. Jews, Gentiles, Saracens, Crusaders,       Frenchmen, Egyptians, Persians, Druses, Turks, and Arabs,       warriors out of every nation which is under heaven, have pitched       their tents in the plain, and have beheld the various banners of       their nations wet with the dews of Tabor and Hermon" (Dr.       Clark).
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Esther       the queen of Ahasuerus, and heroine of the book that bears her       name. She was a Jewess named Hadas'sah (the myrtle), but when       she entered the royal harem she received the name by which she       henceforth became known (Esther 2:7). It is a Syro-Arabian       modification of the Persian word satarah, which means a star.       She was the daughter of Abihail, a Benjamite. Her family did not       avail themselves of the permission granted by Cyrus to the       exiles to return to Jerusalem; and she resided with her cousin       Mordecai, who held some office in the household of the Persian       king at "Shushan in the palace." Ahasuerus having divorced       Vashti, chose Esther to be his wife. Soon after this he gave       Haman the Agagite, his prime minister, power and authority to       kill and extirpate all the Jews throughout the Persian empire.       By the interposition of Esther this terrible catastrophe was       averted. Haman was hanged on the gallows he had intended for       Mordecai (Esther 7); and the Jews established an annual feast,       the feast of Purim (q.v.), in memory of their wonderful       deliverance. This took place about fifty-two years after the       Return, the year of the great battles of Plataea and Mycale       (B.C. 479).                Esther appears in the Bible as a "woman of deep piety, faith,       courage, patriotism, and caution, combined with resolution; a       dutiful daughter to her adopted father, docile and obedient to       his counsels, and anxious to share the king's favour with him       for the good of the Jewish people. There must have been a       singular grace and charm in her aspect and manners, since 'she       obtained favour in the sight of all them that looked upon her'       (Esther 2:15). That she was raised up as an instrument in the       hand of God to avert the destruction of the Jewish people, and       to afford them protection and forward their wealth and peace in       their captivity, is also manifest from the Scripture account."
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Esther, Book of       The authorship of this book is unknown. It must have been       obviously written after the death of Ahasuerus (the Xerxes of       the Greeks), which took place B.C. 465. The minute and       particular account also given of many historical details makes       it probable that the writer was contemporary with Mordecai and       Esther. Hence we may conclude that the book was written probably       about B.C. 444-434, and that the author was one of the Jews of       the dispersion.                This book is more purely historical than any other book of       Scripture; and it has this remarkable peculiarity that the name       of God does not occur in it from first to last in any form. It       has, however, been well observed that "though the name of God be       not in it, his finger is." The book wonderfully exhibits the       providential government of God.

Growth has been uneven in recent years because of fluctuations    in prices for Ecuador's primary exports - oil and bananas - as well as    because of government policies designed to curb inflation. President    Sixto DURAN-BALLEN launched a series of macroeconomic reforms when he    came into office in August 1992 which included raising domestic fuel    prices and utility rates, eliminating most subsidies, and bringing the    government budget into balance. These measures helped to reduce    inflation from 55% in 1992 to 25% in 1994. DURAN-BALLEN has a much    more favorable attitude toward foreign investment than his predecessor    and has supported several laws designed to encourage foreign    investment. Ecuador has implemented free or complementary trade    agreements with Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Peru, and Venezuela, as well    as applied for World Trade Organization membership. Ecuador signed a    standby agreement with the IMF and rescheduled its $7.6 billion    commercial debt in 1994 thereby regaining access to multilateral    lending.

Subsistence farming predominates. Although    pre-independence Equatorial Guinea counted on cocoa production for    hard currency earnings, the deterioration of the rural economy under    successive brutal regimes has diminished potential for agriculture-led    growth. A number of aid programs sponsored by the World Bank and the    international donor community have failed to revitalize export    agriculture. Businesses for the most part are owned by government    officials and their family members. Commerce accounts for about 8% of    GDP and the construction, public works, and service sectors for about    38%. Undeveloped natural resources include titanium, iron ore,    manganese, uranium, and alluvial gold. Oil exploration, taking place    under concessions offered to US, French, and Spanish firms, has been    moderately successful. Increased production from recently discovered    natural gas fields will provide a greater share of exports in 1995.       National product: GDP - purchasing power parity - $280 million (1993    est.)       National product real growth rate: 7.3% (1993 est.)       National product per capita: $700 (1993 est.)       Inflation rate (consumer prices): 1.6% (1992 est.)       Unemployment rate: NA%       Budget:    revenues: $32.5 million    expenditures: $35.9 million, including capital expenditures of $3    million (1992 est.)       Exports: $56 million (f.o.b., 1993)    commodities: coffee, timber, cocoa beans    partners: Spain 55.2%, Nigeria 11.4%, Cameroon 9.1% (1992)       Imports: $62 million (c.i.f., 1993)    commodities: petroleum, food, beverages, clothing, machinery    partners: Cameroon 23.1%, Spain 21.8%, France 14.1%, US 4.3% (1992)       External debt: $260 million (1992 est)       Industrial production: growth rate 11.3% (1993 est.)       Electricity:    capacity: 23,000 kW    production: 20 million kWh    consumption per capita: 50 kWh (1993)       Industries: fishing, sawmilling       Agriculture: accounts for almost 50% of GDP, cash crops - timber and    coffee from Rio Muni, cocoa from Bioko; food crops - rice, yams,    cassava, bananas, oil palm nuts, manioc, livestock       Economic aid:    recipient: US commitments, including Ex-Im (FY81-89), $14 million;    Western (non-US) countries, ODA and OOF bilateral commitments    (1970-89), $130 million; Communist countries (1970-89), $55 million       Currency: 1 CFA franc (CFAF) = 100 centimes       Exchange rates: Communaute Financiere Africaine francs (CFAF) per US$1    - 529.43 (January 1995), 555.20 (1994), 273,16 (1993), 264.69 (1992),    282.11 (1991), 272.26 (1990)    note: beginning 12 January 1994, the CFA franc was devalued to CFAF    100 per French franc from CFAF 50 at which it had been fixed since    1948       Fiscal year: 1 April - 31 March       Equatorial Guinea:Transportation       Railroads:    total: 0 km       Highways:    total: 2,760 km (2,460 km on Rio Muni and 300 km on Bioko)    paved: NA    unpaved: NA       Ports: Bata, Luba, Malabo       Merchant marine:    total: 2 ships (1,000 GRT or over) totaling 6,412 GRT/6,699 DWT    ships by type: cargo 1, passenger-cargo 1       Airports:    total: 3    with paved runways 2,438 to 3,047 m: 1    with paved runways 1,524 to 2,437 m: 1    with paved runways under 914 m: 1       Equatorial Guinea:Communications       Telephone system: 2,000 telephones; poor system with adequate    government services    local: NA    intercity: NA    international: international communications from Bata and Malabo to    African and European countries; 1 Indian Ocean INTELSAT earth station       Radio:    broadcast stations: AM 2, FM 0, shortwave 0    radios: NA       Television:    broadcast stations: 1    televisions: NA       Equatorial Guinea:Defense Forces       Branches: Army, Navy, Air Force, Rapid Intervention Force, National    Police       Manpower availability: males age 15-49 89,752; males fit for military    service 45,611 (1995 est.)       Defense expenditures: exchange rate conversion - $2.5 million, NA% of    GDP (FY93/94)
