Sometimes, too, houses have to be sold by auction to satisfy the legal requirements of trustees or executors (auctions provide adequate proof that the property has been sold at the going market value, and protect trustees from future claims of negligence).
Less happily, but for the same reason, repossessed houses are often auctioned.

It has also been argued that the small mouths of the giants simply could not have downed enough food to support a warm-blooded metabolism, particularly plant food that needs a lot of processing before it becomes available as energy.
On the other hand it can be argued that the sauropods like Brachiosaurus were so large, and with a relatively small surface area through which to cool compared with their enormous volume, that their cooling rate could have been slow enough to allow them to sustain more continuous activity than smaller, living reptiles.
The armoured or plated dinosaurs include some species that seem too heavily burdened with protective armour to have been very active, but this does not necessarily mean that they had to be cold-blooded.

For 1987 the statistics show that there were some 20,000 accidental deaths, of which some 7,000 occurred in the home, 6,000 at work, and 5,000 on the roads.
Although many deaths arise from natural causes, and many others from illnesses and diseases, each year sees a large number of deaths caused by β€˜ accidents ’, and also a number caused by acts or omissions which amount to some form of homicide in English law.

Their protagonists argue that the law of murder is so important socially that derogation from the principle of maximum certainty should be allowed in favour of more accurate labelling by the courts; opponents argue that the principle of maximum certainty is needed here specifically to reduce the risk of verdicts based on discriminatory or irrelevant factors, such as distaste for the defendant's background, allegiance, or other activities.
Admittedly, the Model Penal Code does contain a list of circumstances which may amount to extreme indifference, which assists the courts and increases the predictability of verdicts in a way that Scots law does not, but the essence of both approaches is that there is no precise way of describing those non-intentional killings which are as heinous as intentional killings.

It points to the impact that the findings of global environmental research are likely to have on most sectors of the UK economy.

Much attention will be given throughout this chapter to monitoring the environment on a global basis.
1 . We should know something about the periodicity of the variables we are monitoring if we are not to risk either unnecessarily detailed data collection or aliasing of trends; 2 . Since we know that the periodicity of some variables is longer than the monitoring already carried out by human beings, we must make use of surrogate or proxy variables to extend our range of knowledge (such as via tree rings, palynology, oxygen isotope ratios from ice cores and geomorphological evidence of environmental change); 3 . Since we are not yet able to predict all the interactions which may be important in a study of environmental problems, collecting potentially useful data as well as those believed central to the problem under study is often wise; 4 . We must accept that most data collection exercises will inevitably be a compromise on the grounds of cost and hence less than perfect data sets will be produced; 5 . Irrespective of the use of surrogates, monitoring environmental processes only makes sense over time-scales which are extended by human standards (hence the IGBP (see below) is designed to run for two or three decades); 6 . Changes in political priorities may simply result in the need for informed guesswork if suitable data are not available.
This is not merely because of its topical nature.

The arguments therefore tend to focus on three borderline questions: What is the minimum fault required for conviction of murder?
Although there are two offences, murder and manslaughter, the latter includes two distinct varieties: β€˜ voluntary ’ manslaughter (killings which would be murder but for the existence of defined extenuating circumstances); and β€˜ involuntary ’ manslaughter (killings for which there is no need to prove any awareness of the risk of death being caused, but for which there is thought to be sufficient fault to justify criminal liability).
What conditions are needed to reduce murder to manslaughter?

Consider the structure of their legs.

The counter-arguments, which would uphold the principle of correspondence, are that breach of that principle is unnecessary when the amplitude of the crime of manslaughter lies beneath murder, and also that the definition of grievous bodily harm includes a number of injuries which are most unlikely to put the victim's life at risk.
If one person chooses to cause serious injury to another, it should be presumed that he or she realizes that there is always a risk of death, and such cases show a sufficiently wanton disregard for life as to warrant the label β€˜ murder ’ if death results.
In the leading case of Cunningham Lord Edmund-Davies (dissenting) gave the example of breaking someone's arm: that is a really serious injury, but one which is unlikely to endanger the victim's life.

Kessell (1988) describes a PC-based GIS called PREPLAN (PRistine Environment Planning LANguage) which is a natural area management, land-use planning and fire modelling system developed for the Australian National Parks and Wildlife Service, PREPLAN comprises four modules: a simple raster-based GIS; a grid cell resource database; a wide range of vegetation, fuel, fire behaviour, erosion and land-use models; tabular, statistical and colour graphics output system.
In dry parts of the world, such as Australia, forest and bush fires are an important natural hazard and some attention has been given to the ways in which GIS might help examine their potential impacts.
With this system real-time fire growth can be modelled, taking into account changes in terrain, fuel and temporal changes in the weather.

Some urban areas have serious problems without a major ethnic dimension (Newcastle, Teesside); not all members of ethnic minorities are poor or deprived.
There is a danger in reading back from this figure another stereotype, similar to the Pavlovian β€˜ drug addiction/inner city ’ assumed link.
Nevertheless, the high proportion of inner urban populations composed of people from ethnic minorities, and the high incidence among these groups of all the indices of poverty and social and environmental hardship β€” combined with the specific problem of inter-racial rivalry, harassment, and tension β€” make race and ethnicity an aspect that is central to any analysis of the inner cities and of any ameliorative approach.

Other data sources on cancers are independent registries of malignancies.
It should be noted that there are frequently major discrepancies between the regional registries and the specialist registries, partly because the latter receive notifications directly from consultants.
