Spacers

Some of my best friends are irredeemable two-spacers, too, and even my wife has been known to use an unnecessary extra space every now and then (though she points out that she does so only when writing to other two-spacers, just to make them happy).

The UBDs exploit this by having small spacers between ubiquitin-interacting motifs that bind lysine 48-linked chains (compact ubiquitin chains) and larger spacers for lysine 63-linked chains.

It was encouraging that the Cavaliers addressed their perimeter shooting needs in bringing in those types of floor spacers early on in free agency.

Additionally, consider using toe spacers for bunions that help realign the toes into their natural position.

Without the spacers, you’ll end up tapping the entire row tight to the wall or baseboard.

Six-foot spacers line the floor and library staff wear masks.

He inserts two spaces after a period (or a full stop, as they say in the U.K.), typewriter style, which will gain him support from the Wide Spacers Society, whose members point out that spacing is not a rule but a choice.

Each rail has a series of pins with rubber spacers that support the bars.

Given that the Spacers have already accepted that Sarton's death is unsolved, they are willing to not prosecute Enderby for the accident if he agrees to work with them to promote colonization of other worlds amongst the Medievalists.

In gas-charged lines, hard plastics such as nylon are used as spacers to separate the inner and outer conductors.

In some species they form the stems of branching structures, while in others they act as spacers that enable colonies to grow quickly in a new direction.

In The Caves of Steel and its sequels (the first of which is The Naked Sun), Asimov paints a grim situation of an Earth dealing with an extremely large population, and of luxury-seeking Spacers who limit birth to permit great wealth and privacy.

Some coaxial lines use air (or some other gas) and have spacers to keep the inner conductor from touching the shield.

The Caliban trilogy describes the terraforming of the Spacer world Inferno, a planet where an ecological crisis forces the Spacers to abandon many long-cherished parts of their culture.

The implication at the end of Nemesis that the inhabitants of the off-Earth colonies are splitting off from Earthbound humans could also be connected to a similar implication about the Spacers in Mark W. Tiedemann 's Robot books.
