COJ Billing Blunders<\/h3>\n

For over a decade, the City of Johannesburg\u2019s rates, water and electricity billing system has been in absolute chaos. Exaggerated estimates, incorrect readings and system errors have plagued residents and even though the city is under a new dispensation, it seems little has changed. It\u2019s just over a year since Carte Blanche covered this story. We follow up to find out whether any of the billing disputes featured, have in fact been resolved.<\/p>\n

CERN also hosts the Large Hadron Collider where the existence of the Higgs boson particle was confirmed.
