It aimed to show the importance of art when truth is stranger than fiction, especially in the arguably uncertain times we are living in today. The show borrowed its title from Charlie Brooker's hit TV show. The Saatchi Gallery exhibition showcased works by 26 contemporary artists and explored the role of art in social satire. Approx 30 works from Richard Billingham's photography series, Ray's A Laugh (1990 - 1996) were included and in the context of the exhibition showed the realities of living in poverty. Chilean sculptor Alejandra Prieto's work transformed rejected lumps of coal into beautiful desirable objects and Jessica Craig-Martin's candid close-ups gave a voyeuristic view of high society hedonism.

Enhanced Leak Detection

A key requirement for Veeder-Root’s Enhanced Leak Detection System is that it be able to test in situ for the presence of leaks at gasoline dispensing facilities. Aside from the obvious issues of safety and lost product, this functionality is obligatory for compliance with environmental standards mandated by federal and state oversight bodies, such as the California State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB). The SWRCB demands a testing procedure that includes conditions as close to operational as possible, while still using environmentally safe gases as a test fluid. Although the test parameters (e.g., pressure) are allowed to deviate from operating conditions in order to facilitate the test procedure, a prescribed rescaling of the test thresholds must then be applied to account for the deviation. Whether the test is run at operation conditions or in a slightly different parameter regime, the fact that the testing must be done on the product and return lines after installation at a service station presents significant challenges in devising an effective test strategy
