Eureka is an American science fiction television series that premiered on Syfy on July 18, 2006. The fifth and final season ended on July 16, 2012. The show was set in the fictional town of Eureka, Oregon (although, in the pilot episode, Eureka was located in Washington – and the origin of a diamond in the episode "Best In Faux" was shown as Eureka, California). Most residents of Eureka are scientific geniuses who work for Global Dynamics – an advanced research facility responsible for the development of nearly all major technological breakthroughs since its inception. Each episode featured a mysterious accidental or intentional misuse of technology, which the town sheriff, Jack Carter, solved with the help of town scientists. Each season also featured a larger story arc that concerned a particular major event or item.
The series was created by Andrew Cosby and Jaime Paglia and was produced by Universal Media Studios. While initially lacking in critical acclaim, Eureka was a ratings success for the network, averaging 3.2 million viewers during the second half of season three.[1] In 2007, Eureka was nominated for the Emmy Award for Outstanding Visual Effects for a Series, and won the Leo Award for Best Visual Effects in a Dramatic Series.[2] In the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland, the show airs on Syfy and is known as A Town Called Eureka, although it is also shown under its original title on the BT Vision platform.[3]

Jaime Paglia, co-creator of Eureka, at the 2011 Phoenix Comicon.
Deputy United States Marshal Jack Carter stumbles upon Eureka while transporting a fugitive prisoner (his own rebellious teenage daughter Zoe) back to her mother's home in Los Angeles. When a faulty experiment cripples the sheriff of Eureka, Carter finds himself quickly chosen to fill the vacancy. Despite not being a genius like most members of the town, Jack Carter demonstrates a remarkable ability to connect to others, keen and practical insights, and a dedication to preserving the safety of Eureka.
Eureka took place in a high tech fictional community of the same name, located in the U.S. state of Oregon (Washington in the pilot), and inhabited by brilliant scientists. Camouflaged by an electromagnetic shield, the town is operated by a corporation called Global Dynamics (GD), which is overseen by the United States Department of Defense. The town's existence and location are closely guarded secrets. In episode 1.8 ("Right as Raynes"), Carter and Stark are able to drive to Summerville, Oregon within an hour, give or take a few minutes. Then, in episode 2.03 ("Unpredictable"), the meteorologist's map shows Eureka as being on the Santiam River by the Green Peter Reservoir in Oregon. But in episode 5.06 ("Worst Case Scenario"), Jack is directed to place an electromagnetic field generator device at the center of Eureka's shield. The GPS coordinates given are 42°38′12.33″N 121°40′55.33″W / 42.6367583°N 121.6820361°W / 42.6367583; -121.6820361, located in the Winema National Forest, 43 miles (69 km) north of the border between California and Oregon.
Cast and characters[edit]
Main article: List of Eureka characters
Main characters[edit]
Sheriff Jack Carter, portrayed by Colin Ferguson, is a U.S. Marshal who reluctantly ends up as the sheriff of Eureka. Jack is consistently dumbfounded by the wonders Eureka produces, as well as its propensity to produce things that often threaten the entire town (or world). Despite being a man of average intelligence in a town full of geniuses, Jack's admittedly simple ideas and his intuition often save the day.
Zoe Carter, portrayed by Jordan Hinson (seasons 1–3, recurring in seasons 4–5), is Jack's rebellious teenage daughter. Unlike her father, she is intelligent enough to keep up with the town's residents. Yet, like her father, she possesses street smarts, something lacking for most of the town's residents. She hopes to attend Harvard Medical School and become a physician.
Dr. Allison Blake, portrayed by Salli Richardson-Whitfield, is a Department of Defense agent who acts as the liaison between Global Dynamics and the federal government in season one. Later, she becomes the head of Global Dynamics. In seasons four and five she is the head doctor due to the effect of their journey to the 1940s. Allison, unmarried, is also mother of Kevin, who has autism until season four.
Dr. Henry Deacon, portrayed by Joe Morton, is the town jack of all trades and a brilliant scientist. Henry has ethical objections to the kind of research conducted at Global Dynamics, so he prefers to be employed as the town's mechanic. Henry's assistance is often invaluable in defusing the bad situations that are created by experiments at Global Dynamics.
Dr. Nathan Stark, portrayed by Ed Quinn (seasons 1–3), is one of Eureka's top scientists. He and Jack are frequently at odds, although both respect each other. On and off, he is romantically involved with Allison. He is modeled after Tony Stark, a Marvel Comics character.[4]
Dr. Beverly Barlowe, portrayed by Debrah Farentino (seasons 1-2, recurring in seasons 4-5), is the town psychiatrist. She secretly works for a mysterious organization known as the Consortium, which has expressed a desire to exploit Eureka's innovations by whatever means necessary.
Josephina "Jo" Lupo, portrayed by Erica Cerra (recurring in seasons 1–2, regular in seasons 3–5), is Eureka's deputy sheriff. She is a former U.S. Army Ranger with a love of firearms. In seasons four and five, she is the head of Global Dynamics security due to the effect of their journey to the 1940s.
Dr. Douglas Fargo, portrayed by Neil Grayston (recurring in seasons 1–2, regular in seasons 3–5), is a junior scientist, treated somewhat dismissively by his peers. Accident-prone, he often ends up a victim of the disasters befalling the town, and has caused a fair share of the problems. Grayston also provides the voice of S.A.R.A.H. (Self Actuated Residential Automated Habitat), the bunker home Jack and Zoe Carter live in. In seasons four and five he is the head of Global Dynamics due to the effect of their journey to the 1940s.
Zane Donovan, portrayed by Niall Matter (recurring in season 2, regular in seasons 3–5), is a rebellious genius who is recruited to Global Dynamics. He allegedly caused a stock market crash, and agreed to work for GD as an alternative to imprisonment.
Dr. Grace Monroe, portrayed by Tembi Locke, (seasons 4–5) a scientist, mechanic, and wife of Henry Deacon in an alternate timeline created after the Eureka Five time traveled to 1947.

The series was created by Andrew Cosby and Jaime Paglia and was produced by Universal Media Studios. The season one original music was composed by Mutato Muzika; season two and beyond were composed by Bear McCreary. The executive producers were Paglia, Charles Grant Craig, and Thania St. John. While initially lacking in strong critical acclaim, Eureka had been a popular success, averaging 3.2 million viewers during the second half of season three.[1] In 2007 Eureka was nominated for the Emmy Award for Outstanding Visual Effects for a Series and won the Leo Award for Best Visual Effects in a Dramatic Series.[2] In the United Kingdom on Sky1 the show is known as A Town Called Eureka although it is also shown under its original name on the BT Vision platform.[3]
Characters from Eureka have crossed over to Warehouse 13 and vice versa, and characters from Warehouse 13 have crossed over to Alphas, making the triplet sister shows.[5][6][7][8]
On August 17, 2010, Syfy announced that the show had been picked up for a fifth season of 13 episodes.[9][10] Fan sites and a show writers' Twitter feed said on August 4, 2011, that the show had been picked up for a sixth and possibly final season of six episodes.[10][11] It was then announced on August 8, 2011, that Eureka would not get a sixth season, but it would instead be canceled after season five.[12] However, one additional episode of the fifth season was approved in order to give the series a proper finale.[13] On February 16, 2012, Syfy announced that the show's fifth and final season would premiere on April 16, 2012.[14]
Filming locations[edit]
Chilliwack, British Columbia – Downtown Wellington Avenue Cafe Diem set all 5 seasons.[15]
Ladysmith, British Columbia – Downtown First Avenue, Roberts Street.[16]
Burnaby, British Columbia – Vancouver Film Studios for the majority of the Global Dynamics building interiors, cafe interiors as well as the home of Sheriff Carter.[17]
Crossovers[edit]
Eureka was part of Syfy's developing shared fictional universe, with several characters crossing over between series:
Global Dynamics researcher Douglas Fargo (played by Neil Grayston) from Eureka traveled to South Dakota to update Warehouse 13's computer system in the Warehouse 13 episode "13.1". Warehouse 13 computer wizard Claudia Donovan (played by Allison Scagliotti) subsequently traveled to the town of Eureka, Oregon to check out the technological marvels at Global Dynamics in the Eureka episode "Crossing Over". Fargo again appeared in the Warehouse 13 episode "Don't Hate the Player" when Claudia, Lattimer, and Bering traveled to Palo Alto, California to find Douglas beta testing a virtual reality simulator with the aid of a dangerous artifact. Additionally, Hugo Miller spent some time in the town of Eureka, departing with Douglas Fargo at the end of episode "13.1"; he returns in "Love Sick", commenting that, "every week [there] something seems to go 'boom'!" His presence there is off screen.
Reception[edit]
Ratings and viewership[edit]
The series premiere was watched by 4.1 million people, making it the top-rated cable program for that night; it was the highest-rated series launch in Syfy's fourteen-year history.[18] The season two premiere drew 2.5 million viewers, making it the top-rated cable program of the day.[19]
For calendar-year 2008 as a first-run, the series delivered 1.42 million viewers in the 18–49 demographic.[20]
The 3rd season premiere was viewed by 2.8 million viewers, and the season 3.5 premiere of Eureka earned 2.68 million viewers in its new time slot.[21] The 4th season premiere was viewed by 2.5 million viewers.[22] The 5th season premiere was viewed by 1.8 million viewers,[23] on par with seasons 4's closing episode "One Giant Leap".[24] The 5th season closer "Just Another Day" generated 1.58 million viewers.[25]
Critical reception[edit]
Critical reaction was mixed, with general praise for the premise, but overall middling reaction to the writing of the pilot.
The Seattle Post-Intelligencer:[26]
" It's all very quirky. Too quirky, maybe, for an audience that is used to spaceships, robots, and explosions. Though every episode promises an "aha!" moment based in quantum physics and obscure scientific laws, this world is relatively flat, conceptually speaking, in comparison to the complexity woven into series such as Stargate SG-1 and Battlestar Galactica. This does not mean Eureka is a complete waste of time. Not at all. The characters are fun, Ferguson is believable and pleasant, the script is solidly constructed, and the visuals are slickly produced. All in all, it's a sweet series and probably not long for this world. "
The New York Daily News:[27]
" With its playful new series Eureka, set in the Pacific Northwest and telling the story of an outsider who comes to explore, and settle in, a remote town full of eccentrics, Sci-Fi Channel isn't just inviting comparisons to Twin Peaks and Northern Exposure. It's demanding them. But co-creators Andrew Cosby and Jaime Paglia hold up to them pretty well. Eureka has a premise, a cast and a plot that make it one of the TV treats of the summer. The folks at Sci-Fi Channel clearly intended to reinvent the summer TV series here, and come up with something breezy and fun. And Eureka – they've done it! "
Director of Center for Inquiry & IIG, James Underdown presents writer Ed Fowler with an award on August 21, 2010.
Eureka was nominated for a 2007 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Special Visual Effects for a Series. The other nominees were Grey's Anatomy, Heroes, Rome, and Battlestar Galactica (the winner).[28]
On August 21, 2010, Eureka was honored with an award for its scientific, and critical thinking content, from The Independent Investigations Group during its 10th Anniversary Gala. The award was accepted by head writer Ed Fowler.[29]
Cancellation[edit]
On August 8, 2011, it was announced that Eureka would be cancelled after five seasons.[30] Syfy decided not to order a season six of Eureka: "But Eureka is not over yet. There is a new holiday episode this December and 12 stellar episodes set to debut next year, marking its fifth season and six memorable years on Syfy. The 2012 episodes are some of the best we've seen, and will bring this great series to a satisfying end. We are very grateful to Bruce Miller and Jaime Paglia, their team of incredible writers, and an amazing cast and crew who have consistently delivered a series we continue to be very proud of. We thank the fans for their support of this show and know they will enjoy its final season in 2012."[31]
With the announcement of the show's cancellation, a fan campaign on social media emerged. Thousands of fans protested what they thought was the network's decision.[32][unreliable source?] Executive producer Amy Berg clarified that the decision to cancel the show was made by Comcast, the controlling partner at NBCUniversal, which owns Syfy.
Everyone is asking why. It's simple, really. We are the network's golden child in every way, except profit margins. Fact is, #Eureka is an expensive show to make. And we could not maintain the quality of our show with the cuts it would take to make us profitable for Syfy's new parent company. Our creative execs at Syfy fought hard to keep us. Trust me, they LOVE us. We just couldn't make the numbers work.

Gene means fish can recover lost stripes

German evolutionary biologists have found a way to add and remove stripes on East African fish called cichlids, providing new clues to the genetic processes behind repeated or convergent evolution.
The scientists, led by Claudius Kratochwil from the University of Konstanz, say a single gene explains both why similar stripes can be found on different types of cichlid that are only distantly related and live in different places, and why stripes have occasionally come and gone during the evolutionary process.
And they found similarities to a single gene responsible for the different coat colours of cats, dogs and horses.
More than 1200 types of cichlid, among the most colourful of fish, are found in Africa's three largest lakes – Malawi, Victoria and Tanganjika. They are extremely diverse in terms of behaviour, shape, colour and other biological aspects, but certain features have repeatedly evolved independently in each lake.
One of those is a horizontal stripe, but from an evolutionary point of view it is rather unstable. Over the course of a few million years, stripes have been lost and re-emerged in the lakes many times over.
Using a combination of genome analyses and breeding experiments, Kratochwil and his colleagues discovered that all the cichlid species carry what they have dubbed "the stripe gene" – officially called agrp2 – but that the regulatory elements for it differ.
The gene is, in fact, a "stripes inhibitor": if gene production is high, stripes will be suppressed, if production is low, they will remain. The team was able to demonstrate this using "gene scissors".
"If we use CRISPR-Cas to remove the gene from the genome of a species without stripes, then even a stripeless fish will suddenly develop stripes," says first author Claudius Kratochwil. "This proves that the stripes gene is the decisive genetic factor."
The agrp2 gene is a copy of the agouti gene, which is responsible for different coat colours in mammals.
Most importantly, the researchers say, its existence in cichlids makes repeated evolution possible within the briefest of times (relatively speaking) and in a simple way. Stripes lost are not lost forever, and that means that "palaeontological rules and evolutionary rules have to be questioned once again".
The paper is published in the journal Science.

I've heard that divorce is more common around the seven and 20-year marks. Why? I have my theories and I've read some other theories. In any case, my husband and I celebrated our seven year anniversary earlier this year. It was a simple yet lovely celebration at the perfect tiny restaurant a mile from our house where we'd actually never before dined. As we sipped our wine, a perfect combination of fruity and nutty deliciousness, it hit me that we had indeed experienced our seven year itch.
Rewind to November of 2013 when we vacationed for eight nights to our absolute favorite destination. After a week of sunbathing, boating, hiking, and happy-houring, (yes, happy-houring is a verb) it was time to head back home to Charlotte, the only home we've ever known as a couple. As we sipped our beer at the local brewery early that afternoon, we made a decision that would alter the course of our next year quite drastically.
The day we decided that maybe- just maybe- we could take a big risk!
That day, November 19th, I looked at Shaun and somewhat timidly said, "We love it here. We are so happy here. Why are we not LIVING here?" And there it was. It was out there. A totally extreme idea, and I had no idea how he would respond. We continued to sip our cold drafts and pretty soon, ordered another one. Even though it was 85 degrees in the Caribbean, it was in fact, fall, so we were having pumpkin beer with a brown sugar rim.
As we started to talk about it, we realized that we were actually on the same page with this. We started throwing out declarations like: "There is more to life than our home and jobs" and "Let's not wake up one day and regret that we never fully experienced what life has to offer." We made a lot of strong statements that were hard to take back. We didn't intend to change our minds.
I've heard of people who get married very young changing dramatically in their 20s and not always changing together. While we certainly weren't old when we tied the knot, we definitely were young enough where our lives could take different paths and our desire to find what constituted happiness could change. And it had.
The really great news about our seven year itch is that it happened to us both. It's as if we were just waiting on a catalyst, something to open our eyes to the reality that there is more to life than what we are currently living. Money can't buy happiness but, to money's credit, it gave us the means to experience enough to know that there is a giant world out there. Money assisted us in creating a comfortable and happy life with all the amenities a young couple could possibly need. But the fact is, having things isn't our ultimate path to happiness.
Sometimes you have to get another perspective. Salomon Bay on St John is a place I find calmness and serenity.
When we arrived back home, we began to take inventory of all of our things, our stuff: The dark, cherry wood, formal dining room furniture that housed fine china and crystal that we never used; a formal sitting room that we definitely never used, but I had insisted six years ago that I must have a purple couch and a custom ottoman in the room with our formal wedding album and our super formal and enormous portrait; and the two guest bedrooms that had simultaneously been in use a total of two nights. Then there was the coat closet full of garments that we wished we didn't use. There was just so much stuff.
Had to have a purple couch. Happily, I've found it a great home!
While we loved our house and our time there, and even more so, the friendships we'd cultivated while in the house, it was clear that the only "things" in that house that we really needed were each other and our boys. I began to ask myself 'what are you really attached to here"? I realized there were things that made the happy. One was my beautiful Windy O'Connor abstract, the only original piece of art I'd ever purchased. I loved my mirrored side tables in the living room and my eclectic bedroom furniture. The turquoise lamps I found at a consignment store brought some element of joy too.
Makes me smile everyday. Will definitely miss it while we are away.
Sadly, I must admit that the other stuff that I was attached to came from boutiques and malls. I was very much emotionally involved with what hung in my closet. Oh well, I said it. And it truly is my major vice. Some people use drugs, some see a therapist; I shop, and I shop like it's my job. Along with dance, it's my therapy. Dance, shop, tan… well, I do a lot more, but these are a few of my favorite things. One thing's for certain. My seven year itch has prompted a major life detox. Weaning myself off the mall and driving past the oversized SALE signs hanging by the doors of my favorite retail shops hasn't been easy, but I have been telling myself that the best is yet to come!
So, tonight, as we sip our pumpkin beer in frosted mugs with brown sugar rims, we are experiencing every emotion imaginable. We are happy, we're scared, we're ready to move, we don't want to go…. it's an emotional roller coaster. And that is my I created prescription4change. I will be sharing all of the experiences along the way and the lessons we are sure to learn as we leave normal life behind and seek to find happiness on our little piece of paradise.
I look forward to meeting you, Ashley!
Sandra, welcome to prescription4change! I think Shaun's pretty amazing too We look forward to sharing our experiences with friends and loved ones.
Congrats. My wife and I have also made the decision to make St John our full time home. We have a move date of Sept 2015. Can not wait to see your blog updates. And one day meet our new neighbors.
Keep us posted Jason. We should be pros by then and would love to help in any way we can as you make your big move! Welcome to prescription4change!
Congratulations! It'll be fun to follow along the way.
I've never been a "stuff" person. The simple things in life are what make us happy.
Your first prescription to "get simple"… I LOVE IT!
Exactly Lisa! STUFF was weighing me down. Looking forward to trying to live a simpler life with much less stuff in my way. Thanks for following!
Thanks so much Sherry! Don't know what I'd have done without you over the past couple of months. You are truly a blessing, and I can't wait to see you on island in a few weeks!


Many RIGOL Instruments have the capability to clear all the non volatile memory. This is especially useful in tightly controlled lab spaces where data can not be moved around, but instruments need to move.
Here are some example documents for a RIGOL product where this has been verified. If you have a question about any specific model please contact us directly.


I come upon examples of bad practice in publishing government data on a regular basis, but the Universal Jobmatch tool is an example so bad I just had to write about it. In fact, it's worse than the old-fashioned data service that preceded it.
That older service was the Office for National Statistics' labour market service NOMIS, which published data on Jobcentre vacancies and claimants until late 2012, when Jobcentre Plus was given responsibility for publishing the data using their Universal Jobmatch tool.
Despite a number of concerns, more than a year on, Universal Jobmatch's reports section has ignored at least half of the public data principles first drafted by the Government's Public Sector Transparency Board in 2010, and published in 2012.
This is why those principles are important for anyone doing research on issues of public policy (in this case, benefit claimants and the jobs open to them).
On Universal Jobmatch reports you can have data down to one particular district or ward – but you can't have more than one at the same time, unless you want aggregate figures for the areas overall.
A typical result when you ask for data on more than one area – note that the figures are aggregated rather than presented side by side.
Instead, you will have to download them separately, manually, then add the name of the region, and repeat this however many hundreds of times you need to get all the areas you need.
And then repeat again for each month – there's no way of requesting more than one month's data in any form.
If you wanted a national picture broken down by ward for just one month this would involve 9,523 manual downloads. If you wanted to look at change over 12 months, you're looking at 114,276 repetitive actions – before you get to the cleaning and merging.
Well you can certainly download the data as CSV or XML – but again, only manually after you've selected your criteria.
When people talk about 'machine-readable' they sometimes overlook the importance of machine-readable URLs.
When you look at the Universal Jobmatch reports, the URL ends "Reports/Reports.aspx" whether you are on the reports index, the search page for one report, or the results page.
In other words, there's no way to link to the results of any search – or even the search page itself.
A URL is computer-readable: ideally, it should be possible to generate a list which a computer might cycle through, grabbing the data.
15 months since taking over responsibility for the data, the DWP have yet to publish data on Jobcentre Plus on central data hub Data.gov.uk.
The holding page for the data says it "Will be reviewed in the light of demand and prioritisation". When NOMIS published the data, more was available, and it's clear that the demand is there, as the consultation responses show.
The consultation on moving the data from NOMIS to DWP received a long list of concerns – including criticisms of the consultation process itself.
Despite having over a year to do so, few of these concerns appear to have been addressed in the Universal Jobmatch reports, despite a promise that "All points raised will be considered as part of phased planned improvements to the Universal Jobmatch MI [management information] Tool." to be "available in Spring 2013".
There's also one final problem with the report generation service: you cannot select any location starting with a letter in the second half of the alphabet. When it comes to wards, the drop-down menu only goes halfway through the 'A's before it is cut off.
This entry was posted in data journalism, online journalism and tagged data, data.gov.uk, DWP, Jobcentre Plus, NOMIS, ONS, open data, Public Sector Transparency Board, Universal Jobmatch, World Wide Web Consortium on March 5, 2014 by Paul Bradshaw.
I had to use the UJ report finder today to do statistics for the Several Boroughs of East London and my oh my, was that a headache. Once completed I went back on the site to try access a final bit of report and it doesn't even give me access! I really pray they fix that, even change it to NOMIS's format as that is even easier to use and understand.

When it comes to game viewing, the Chobe National Park animals do not let down. The Chobe is a dream destination for wildlife enthusiasts and has gained a first-class reputation thanks to its huge herds of elephants – by far the largest concentration in the world! When it comes to scouting out the Chobe animals, what you want to see highly effects the region the region you'll visit.
The park divided into 4 distinctive eco systems that contribute widely to its animal diversity. These areas include the Chobe riverfront (north-east), the Savute Marsh (west), Linyati swamps (north-west), and the dry hinterland (in between).
Without a doubt, the riverfront is the most popular place to vacation. Safari boats are the way to travel here where you can see huge herds of elephants gracing the banks. The elephants monopolize the area and it is likely you'll observe them chasing away other wildlife from "their" territory. However, by mid mornings, zebra and antelope (sables, kudu and bushbuck) make their way to the banks once the elephants are done. Another dominant animal on the river are Cape buffalo. Herds of up to 1500 often occupy the riverfront at one time and, for those looking for some action, this is for you. Where there are buffalo, there are lions and the evenings are the perfect time to watch hyenas, leopards and lion in action. As for water dwellers, the river homes large pods of hippos and a thriving fish community – something that the African fish eagle enjoys quite a bit.
The Chobe National Park animals in the Savuti Marsh are a completely different experience altogether. The area comprises of natural pans and artificial waterholes – ideal for Chobe wildlife viewing. The area attracts herds of elephant and large lion predators; and what makes the Savuti so interesting is what happens between these two. A lion pride has no shame in preying on elephants. The Savuti lions do not stop with elephants though; they will happily tackle a 1000kg buffalo or even a hippo – a mind blowing phenomenon. Other Chobe wildlife on the lion menu includes zebra or even a casual antelope.
Linyati is birders paradise and is home to over 450 bird species. Pelicans, hornbills, egrets, African skimmers and herons are just some of the feathered fowls you'll find here. In the winter months, the area is covered with thousands of Burchelle zebra who will stay here before heading to the Savuti in November. Other than zebra, plenty red lechwe keep the bellies of resident lions, cheetahs, wild dog and hyena full.

We are thrilled to welcome Rachael Woods to the Urban Green Lab team. As the Sustainable Living Educator, Rachael will be managing the Mobile Lab and creating interactive programing for Nashville's students.
For several years, Ms. Woods has been engaged in making environmental education accessible to all. She has researched sea turtles on sandy Florida beaches, merged the arts and sciences at youth programs set in the Carolina mountains, and brought science education to rural Montana students. Most recently, she worked with our friends at the Adventure Science Center as the Camp Manager. We're so excited to have her on our team!
Sustainable living has always been important in her life. Rachael received her bachelors in Environmental Science from University of Central Florida, followed by six years of sea turtle research on Florida's beaches. Spending every day there, Rachael educated beach-goers how each of us can protect our oceans and planet. Through this research, she worked for a non-profit in Tobago educating local fisherman about protecting these species, and the value of eco-tourism and research collaborations.
Rachael left the beaches for graduate school at Western Carolina University where she researched removal of an invasive species of fish from a river undergoing restoration. In the mountains of North Carolina, she worked with Highlands Biological Station's after-school program, providing students an opportunity to photograph the beauty of the ecosystems in their own backyard. Rachael moved to Missoula, Montana, after graduate school where she worked with University of Montana's spectrUM Discovery Area, delivering science exhibits to rural towns and reservations. Her team reached students of all ages, many of which had never visited a museum. Finding her way back home to the South, Rachael was the Camp Manager at Adventure Science Center, bringing high-quality science programing to youth in Nashville.
Rachael is thrilled to be a part of Urban Green Lab. She's inspired daily by the excitement and passion of students, and loves helping them see what they can do to make our city a greener place. In her off time, Rachael loves tending to her tiny garden and cooking with all of the beautiful, local produce and meats Nashville has to offer. You can find her reading books on the porch, picking up rocks in the river, and spending time with her amazingly adorable niece, Lily.

A[DELAIDE]. M[ARY]. CHAMPNEYS, Miss Tiverton Goes Out (1925)
I have a distinct weakness for really odd books, and honestly, Miss Tiverton Goes Out is surely a kind of masterpiece of oddness. It's a peculiar hybrid of Henry James's What Maisie Knew and Rachel Ferguson's The Brontës Went to Woolworth's, with a bit of Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse thrown in at the end and perhaps a smidgen of Diana Tutton's Guard Your Daughters added for seasoning.
While you're trying to fathom such a bewildering combination (appropriate, really, since in a very real sense this is a novel about bewilderment), I'll go on to say the novel tells of a dysfunctional family and the elderly woman next door who becomes a powerful symbol of good (for the family's neglected youngest daughter) and evil (for her nouveau riche, money-hungry father). Miss Tiverton may also represent the family's class ambitions and the tradition they try and fail to belong to, as well as their flip side, a sort of reactionary stagnation. And since she never actually appears in the novel (except—sort of—in its final pages), the novel leaves intentionally ambiguous any possible truth about the real Miss Tiverton. She is a figure of fantasy and speculation, and ends up a kind of Godot figure, molding the actions and beliefs of her neighbors without, it seems, ever giving them much of a thought.
It's the central cliché of this blog to say I'm surprised this book isn't in print and more widely read, so I won't say exactly that this time. But I can say, rather more unusually, that I wouldn't have been at all surprised had I picked up Miss Tiverton in a Penguin Modern Classics edition. It's brilliantly literary and psychological, and Champneys (who, for whatever reason, originally published most of her novels anonymously) was perhaps indeed influenced by the aforementioned James, but was almost certainly also influenced by the high modernism of her time. James Joyce, Dorothy Richardson, Virginia Woolf—surely all of them had a hand in the creation. And yet, the novel really is completely its own thing, not quite like any of them (and perhaps more readable as well). No doubt its peculiarity has played a part in its obscurity, but it seems to me it could just as easily have made it a classic.
The center of the novel is Juliet, a confused, lonely 10-year-old when the novel opens, who has been left to her own devices by her indifferent and self-absorbed family. She has had no real education and no one to trouble themselves with her, and she mostly wanders solitary in and around her social climbing family's large house in an up-and-coming London neighborhood:
It was the kind of family which takes no notice of any unit except when that unit is strongly asserting itself: it was, preeminently, the kind of family in which to be overlooked is not otherwise than a boon. When you are thinking, feeling, doing a little differently from every one else, it is comfortable not to have to account for the differences.
Her fundamental isolation is summed up a little later when her sister prepares to elope with a veterinarian, to the horror of the family:
It had never occurred to Juliet that her sister could be unhappy. Even for herself, unhappiness was a condition hardly recognized. There were disappointments, of course, and little sadnesses like the nurse going; and, very occasionally, horrible things happened, like the discovery that your men-folk were wicked. But, for all you knew, everybody's fathers and brothers might be wicked. Anyhow, either you could alter these things, or you could not. If in some particular instance they mattered very much to you personally, at least you could always scream; and if you screamed loud enough and long enough somebody usually did something. Fortunately, however, other people, and their ways of going on, as a rule had nothing to do with you, so that you needn't take much notice.
As a result of her solitude, Juliet is a highly imaginative child who regularly misinterprets what interactions she does have with others, and uses the resulting distortions to translate class tensions, her sister's romance and desire to escape the family, and the behavior of Miss Tiverton's randy cat—among other things—into something she can comprehend.

This is sometimes quite funny, usually fascinating, and often provides real insight into the enigmas she's confronted with. For example, Juliet overhears and misinterprets her father's complaints about Miss Tiverton. He's a real estate developer who has bought up most of the land surrounding Miss Tiverton's shrunken, walled-in estate, and is now waiting for her to die so he can capitalize on his investments. When he complains that Miss Tiverton is "too old to die," Juliet takes him literally, and believes that the "time immemorial" in which Miss Tiverton has lived on her estate is a sort of heaven, a place of peace and harmony, ruled over by its benevolent immortal but threatened by her evil father's incursions. This interpretation—fantastic though it may be—provides some striking insights into the family's own illusions about and striving toward the upper classes.
Later, a visit, with her father and his adviser, to an abandoned neighboring estate (referred to by her father as "the old carcass") leads her to incorporate his bewildering reference into her worldview:
She was not blind to the significance of the gate connecting the Grange field with Miss Tiverton's wilderness. Feverishly, she tried to piece things together. This must be the way by which the carcass had come to see Miss Tiverton when they lived alone together in time immemorial. . . . But it wouldn't have been a carcass then. What would it have been? In a flash the secret burst upon her: it would have been Miss Tiverton's lover.
Although many of Juliet's conclusions are indeed funny or though-provoking, some are a bit more darkly and meanderingly philosophical, and I could imagine her analyses irritating some readers. The novel is perhaps slowed down a bit too much by them in places.
But I have to confess that I found myself rather identifying with Juliet at times, and found her mythologizing of the bewildering people and situations around her quite fascinating. I too was a solitary child in a dysfunctional family, and Juliet's wavering efforts to understand the world and what is expected of her and why, without the benefit of normalcy or role models, seemed familiar to me. This was true for me even when she sometimes comes across as bordering on madness, as when—later in the novel, with the Great War raging (Juliet considers it a "nuisance") and she, now seventeen, serving as a VAD nurse in a hospital run in the home of an elegant cousin of the family—a senile earl mistakes her for Griselda, a lovely debutante from his younger days, and Juliet seems to almost believe, to sink right into, his hallucination, as if it's somehow her "real" place.
Juliet's experience of trying to solve the enigma of proper behavior (using the example of her rather prissy friend Margaret) when she's never experienced normalcy is summed up rather well, and rather poignantly, using her fascination with the surrounding estates as a metaphor for the pitfalls of reality:
Sometimes, however, you didn't find notices where they ought to have been, and where some day they would be: then you stumbled ingloriously into pitfalls that had surely never existed before. It was rather depressing, this not knowing your way about your own mind; yet she was certain that, if Margaret were allowed to work unhampered, the wilderness would blossom at last on a perfectly-ordered plan. And perhaps, meanwhile, if she studied the Sadler family more and more closely she would begin to see in advance what the plan was like. For the present she must make herself realize that all her old landmarks of conduct were treacherous, and all her old thinkings a mere entanglement among weeds.
Interestingly, however, it is Juliet's ability to distance herself from the concerns of her family that allows her to be of use to them in a crisis…
If only they were still
only one dollar...
I couldn't begin to tease out all the shades of meaning in Miss Tiverton Goes Out, and it will no doubt re-pay a re-read or two. In fact, it actually seems to deserve more attention from scholars than it has received (i.e. nil, as far as I can tell). Contemporary reviews were largely positive, and the book was popular enough for Champneys' publisher to use "By the author of Miss Tiverton Goes Out" on her subsequent anonymously-published works, but it never seems to have been reprinted and must have faded quickly from critics' consciousness. Perhaps it deserves a reassessment?
At any rate, to leave you on a light note, I quite liked this passage near the end of the novel, which incorporates humor into a wartime scene—always a favorite combination—as well as displaying just a touch of the hard-won independence and maturity Juliet has gradually acquired:
There was no basement in Ashtree Towers. You sat, therefore, during air-raids, on anything you could find to sit upon in the back passage. Nobody knew why this should be safer than the hall, or even than the drawing-room: the servants declared it to be so, and Mr. Simpson must have been impressed by their opinion, since he had given orders that here, and here only, the family should assemble at sound of the first maroon. Conceivably he may have felt, as regarded his own august person, that the back passage was not a place in which bombs would expect to find him.
"If you're killed," Mr. Simpson called to her, "you'll have only yourself to blame. And if we're all killed as well, perhaps you'll feel remorse."
"I should be so busy blaming myself for my own death," Juliet (without turning) threw back in her clear voice, "that I mightn't have time."

I hope you enjoy it, Susan. It has its slower moments, but I really found it completely fascinating. I just noticed that archive.org also has one of her later novels--how did I miss that?
That sounds like a wonderful recipe, and I've just downloaded a copy from Open Library. Thank you!
Oh, good, I hope you like it, Jane!

A fun and inspiring picture book biography of tennis legend and women's rights activist Billie Jean King.
From award-winning author Mara Rockliff and New York Times-bestselling illustrator Elizabeth Baddeley comes this extraordinary picture book about one little girl who loved sports and grew up to be one of the greatest and best-known tennis players of all time.
Anything Billie Jean did, she did it ALL THE WAY. When she ran, she ran fast. When she played, she played hard. As a top women's tennis player, Billie Jean fought for fairness in women's sports, and when she faced off against Bobby Riggs in the Battle of the Sexes, the most famous tennis match in history, she showed the world that men and women--and boys and girls--are equal on and off the court.
Mara Rockliff is the author of many lively historical books for children, including Mesmerized: How Ben Franklin Solved a Mystery that Baffled All of France, winner of the Cook Prize and an Orbis Pictus Honor Book; Gingerbread for Liberty! How a German Baker Helped Win the American Revolution; Around America to Win the Vote: Two Suffragists, a Kitten, and 10,000 Miles; and Anything But Ordinary Addie: The True Story of Adelaide Herrmann Queen of Magic.

Why move from a rule-led system to an intelligence-led one? A rule-led system fails to detect new potential suspicious activities, is unable to recognize complex patterns in large data volumes, and tends to produce a high number of false positives. Intelligence-led systems can learn right versus wrong detection quickly by interpreting regular behavior versus new behavior through pattern recognition from data such as transactions, behaviors, and time of instances. This helps identify anomalous activity in near real-time, thus allowing banks and financial institutions to identify and report illicit transactions faster as per the regulators expectation.
Taking on the task of moving to an intelligence-led AML transaction monitoring system can feel intimidating at first. However, it is incredibly beneficial to banks and financial institutions. Questions from who will build this technology to who can strategically set up a smart system without periods of extended downtime start running through your mind. Here are three areas of focus to help you get started.
A strategy conducive to blocking illicit transactions boils down to people and process. What is the lead time from data discrepancy to alert, and how long is it taking for an internal team to report the incident? This leaves a company with two choices. Either maintain the status quo by using existing technology and teams and continue to get the same results, or invest in compliance technology with AI and ML capabilities that detect financial crime in near real-time and reduce the number of false positives and negatives.
Choosing the right solution can make or break the strategy. There are many canned solutions on the market, but these come with rule-based automation and analytical limitations. Often, teams are still focusing on data collection and entry instead of investigative work and key insights for risk assessment metrics are often not available. These configurable constraints including poor scenario logic and threshold limitation contribute to compliance breaches. If inefficient or nonlogical scenarios are implemented, they can generate false alerts or create scenarios where the launderers can avoid actions that trigger government reporting, such as Suspicious Activity Reporting (SARs) for example. Working with a service provider to help define a strategy and build a solution that fits your unique business needs is key.
Banks and financial institutions sit atop oceans of consumer data, and how this data is used is the critical factor in computing accurate results. Static segmentation, as an example, results from outdated or incorrect Know Your Customer (KYC) information recorded during account opening and can lead to false alarms. Inaccurate reporting of customer activity enables institutions to make misinformed decisions, which is why it is imperative to be able to quickly discern the important data from the rest.
The output is only as good as it is configured to be, which means companies need easy ways to aggregate and consolidate all of the data being collected and used. The way data is gathered, stored, and used should be an integral component of the overall AML transaction monitoring plan. This makes the experience less overwhelming and more enjoyable for all parties involved.
When there are unanimous standards for what constitutes risk and violation of compliance and what does not, customer identification and account monitoring can be defined and strategically built into a system to strengthen banks' AML efforts.
With regulations come violations that result in massive amounts of company spending. Inconsistent reporting, such as too many or too little SAR and currency transaction reports completed by an institution, becomes a concern for regulators regarding compliance and the quality of the reporting. This exposes enterprises to regulatory sanctions and excessive costs. Well-defined standards and criteria for reporting developed in parallel to an AML transaction monitoring system can prevent many future headaches by setting the right standards early on in the process.
By letting your processes work (and learn) for you, work gets done quicker and more accurately. Many false positives we receive today stem from poor scenario or threshold logic, incorrect segmentation and profiling, and non-reconciliation of source system data. These can all be bypassed or eliminated by devising the right strategy paired with an intelligence-led technology solution.

During the 1960s, Elywn Lynn pioneered fresh approaches to abstract painting in Sydney. He had travelled to Europe in 1957-8 and there developed a keen interest in contemporary Spanish art, particularly the work of Antoni Tàpies who utilised various materials in his painting practice in order to achieve varied surface effects. Through such influences Lynn, on returning to Sydney, began adding wood, rope and other fibres into his painting, and experimented with crusty textured surfaces by incorporating materials such as cement, glue and sand into his medium.
By the end of the 1960s, Lynn was recognised as Australia's pre-eminent textural painter. His work had used collaged and paint-layered surfaces to reference formations within the landscape, making statements concerning the ebb and flows of nature and managing, as Patrick McCaughey noted in 1969 "a heraldic conception of the natural world without incorporating narrative or figurative elements to bolster it up".
'Black oval', represents Lynn's shift to a simplified abstraction and his austere late 60s compositions that were based on a strong symmetrical - even Classical - sense of order. His work from this time no longer held direct analogy to the earth, but contained a sense of the eternal transcribed from the natural world.
'Black oval' produces a subtle sense of disquiet. Lynn's dense, blackened oval form creates the strong visual pull of a vortex, the motion of which is juxtaposed by blocks of collaged wood. They act as a barrier to oval's sense of the infinite without interrupting the impact of its circular flow. Lynn has applied thickened, sensual ripples of paint that is reminiscent of cooled lava and of nature's vital actions that underlie the earth's crust. Through the suggestions and visual contradictions of his materials, Lynn creates a powerful statement on the undulations of time against a sense of the eternal.

Torresandino es una localidad y municipio situado en la provincia de Burgos, comunidad autónoma de Castilla y León (España), comarca de La Ribera, partido judicial de Aranda.

Geografía
Situado en el suroeste de la provincia de Burgos, concretamente en el valle del río Esgueva (subcomarca de la Ribera del Duero). Torresandino está a 15 kilómetros de Roa de Duero y a 33 kilómetros de Aranda de Duero.

Historia

En la Baja Edad Media perteneció a la Meryndat de Çerrato, figurando su descripción en el libro Becerro de las Behetrías de Castilla, redactado por encargo de las Cortes de Valladolid de 1351, bajo el reinado de Pedro I de Castilla.

Por haber alcanzado un mayor desarrollo, se había convertido entonces en centro o capital administrativa de su entorno más inmediato; de modo que en aquellos años su concejo extendía su jurisdicción  sobre 2 aldeas más allá del lugar principal o villa.

Economía
La economía del pueblo se basa principalmente en la agricultura, aunque también destaca el sector de la construcción.

Monumentos y lugares de interés

Iglesia de San Martín Obispo: dentro de la villa, la iglesia posee originales arquerías góticas en su portada. En su interior también sobresale la talla gótica, que data de finales del , de Nuestra Señora de los Valles. También destaca la imagen de un Cristo del .
Monasterio de Nuestra Señora de los Valles: fundado en el  y reedificado en estilo gótico del , actualmente se encuentra en ruinas, motivo por el cual ha sido incluido en la Lista roja de patrimonio en peligro de la asociación para la defensa del patrimonio:Hispania Nostra.

Cultura

Fiestas

 Las fiestas de Nuestra Señora Virgen del Carmen se celebran el día 16 de julio. En estas fiestas se venera a la Virgen del Carmen paseando su figura en una colorida procesión por las calles, donde grupo de danzas y devotos bailan a su patrona al ritmo de los tradicionales  dulzainas y tambores, siendo el acto principal de las fiestas, así como lo fue el pregón. También se suele celebrar en el frontón municipal un festival de pelota a mano. Los días de la fiesta por la mañana hay dianas y pasacalles con cabezudos que animan al pueblo. El pregón de las fiestas se celebra la víspera de la fiesta (el día 15 de julio) a las 23.30 y habitualmente lo vienen realizando hijos ilustres del pueblo.
Las fiestas de San Martín, se celebran el día 11 de noviembre. En estas fiestas hay dos días de verbena popular, uno el día 11 y otro el sábado anterior o posterior, esto dependiendo del día en que haya caído el 11. Aquí el acto más multitudinario se celebra el sábado por la noche día, en el que se celebra una cena en el SEMPA a base de los productos típicos de la matanza (picadillo, chorizo, morcilla, etc.), que son preparados con mucho cuidado por parte de la asociación de amas de casa del pueblo.
 Otro día de fiesta es el último fin de semana de mayo en el que se celebra una romería en honor a la Virgen de la Inmaculada. El acto consiste en una procesión con la Virgen hasta la arboleda de Fuente Peral. Allí cada cuadrilla come y disfruta de este día. Ya van varios años que se hace pero la verdad es que ha gustado mucho a todo el mundo y se espera que sea ya una tradición más del pueblo. Por la tarde la gente disfruta jugando a la tarusa, al mus, a la brisca, etc.; para a continuación regresar al pueblo cantando a la Virgen, siempre acompañados de la música de los dulzaineros. Ya en la iglesia, con el Santo Rosario se acaba esta jornada de fiesta y hermandad.

Q: como se puede obtener el codigo de error nativo de una excepcion en .net Como es sabido una misma excepcion se puede detonar de multiples maneras, un ejemplo de esto IOException que se inicia cuando un hay un timeout NetworkStream o cuando el host de un TcpClient se desconecta.
Lo que necesito es una manera de obtener el codigo de error de cada uno  de estos escenarios para poder actuar de la manera correcta.
Saludos

A: Como bien has dicho, hay varios tipos de excepciones dependiendo de cómo se originan, puedes tener una IOException, SqlException...
Algunas excepciones si que tienen un número que las identifica que se puede obtener a través de sus propiedad number.
Un ejemplo de estas es la SqlException que tiene una propiedad llamada Number.
Otras excepciones como InvalidOperationException no tiene la propiedad Number, puedes acceder a su propiedad Message para ver la explicación de la excepción.
Espero que te sirva.

A: No se si te refieres a la propiedad Message de la clase Exception:
try{

//código donde puede saltar una excepción

catch (Exception e){
   string error =  e.Message;
}

Q: Scoping bug in Racket v5.1.1? Somebody please tell me this is a bug in Racket (v5.1.1),
It seams to be a scoping problem.
(see code and output below)
The return from example-1 shows that x is not
getting incremented as it should and as it does
in example-2 and example-3.
The function example-2 is just a copy of example-1
with the reverse instruction removed from doit.
The function example-3 (as you can see) is a copy
as well but has an additional parameter which by itself
does not change anything but when I test it's value in
the cond statement it shows x as being incremented.
In addition if I don't return anything from example-1
but rather print what it now returns it shows x as
being incremented.
(define (example-1 lst)
  (letrec([x       0]
          [doit    (lambda ()
                     (reverse
                      (foldl
                       (lambda (v store)
                         (set! x (add1 x))
                         (cons v store))
                       '()
                       lst)))])

    (let*([results   (doit)])
      (list x results)
      )))

(define (example-2 lst)
  (letrec([x       0]
          [doit    (lambda ()
                     (foldl
                      (lambda (v store)
                        (set! x (add1 x))
                        (cons v store))
                      '()
                      lst))])

    (let*([results   (doit)])
      (list x results))))

(define (example-3 lst id)
  (letrec([x       0]
          [doit    (lambda ()
                     (reverse
                      (foldl
                       (lambda (v store)
                         (set! x (add1 x))
                         (cons v store))
                       '()
                       lst)))])

    (let*([results   (doit)])
      (cond   [(= 1 id)  'junk])
      (list x results)
      )))

(printf "example-1 : ~a~n"  (example-1 '(a b c)))
(printf "example-2 : ~a~n"  (example-2 '(a b c)))
(printf "example-3 : ~a~n"  (example-3 '(a b c) 1))

output:
example-1 : (0 (a b c))
example-2 : (3 (c b a))
example-3 : (3 (a b c))

A: It's a bug -- I filed it with a simpler version of your code.  (It's unrelated to the jit though.)
Edit: the bug is fixed now.

As an educator, I owe it to both myself and my students to constantly evolve my teaching methods, and to look for new ways to meet their needs in environments that are comfortable, enriching, and which prepare them for the future. I always challenge myself to take on new responsibilities, explore new avenues and opportunities, and to make sure that my classroom is a place that students feel safe, welcome and engaged.
I sit on several Professional Development initiatives with the Bluewater Board of Education, mainly in the areas of Digital Learning and Curriculum, and am presently trying to develop a classroom were content and evaluation are 100% digitally delivered and evaluated.

A relatively new, but important, data privacy standard is ISO 27701 Privacy Information Management System (PIMS), which is a privacy extension to ISO 27001 Information Security Management (ISMS) and ISO 27002 Security Controls. PIMS outlines a framework for Personally Identifiable Information (PII) Controllers and Processors to manage data privacy. As an international management system standard, it provides guidance on the protection of privacy, including how organizations should manage PII, and helps demonstrate compliance with privacy regulations around the world.
Achieving a Privacy Information Management System (PIMS) that conforms to ISO 27701 not only provides peace of mind for both you and your partners, significantly reduces your non-compliance risks, and demonstrates that your organization is respecting data privacy laws, but provides many other benefits, including:
Provides transparency between stakeholders
Builds trust in managing personal information
Reduces audit fatigue so you respond to security questionnaires and inquiries more quickly
Facilitates effective business agreements
Supports compliance with privacy regulations
Identifies and maps controls relevant to the requirements framework and generates and retains necessary evidence of compliance
Clarifies roles and responsibilities
Reduces complexity by integrating with the leading information security standard ISO/IEC 27001
PIMS Process
The process of achieving a Privacy Information Management System (PIMS) that conforms to ISO 27701 is accomplished in four phases:
Identify key stakeholders and contacts
Develop Communications Plan
Define priorities, timelines, scope, and what constitutes success
Scope & Plan 25%
Initial Gap Assessment/Internal Audit
Detailed recommendations
Checklist for action items
Validate plan is actionable
Current State Assessment 50%
Remediation Roadmap 75%
Implement controls
Execute Risk Assessment
Establish governance structure
Strategic planning cadence
Program Implementation 100%
To ensure the highest levels of success, HPS has partnered with OneTrust to leverage its technology platform. The OneTrust platform helps operationalize privacy initiatives for organizations and ensure year after year compliance with all routine privacy requirements.

Become a registrar
What happens when you register a .CA domain name? When will it expire – and what happens if it does?
Phases of the .CA domain name life cycle
Domain is available
You can perform a search on either our website or a registrar's website to see what domain names are available.
Domain is registered (0-7 days)
Once you register the domain, you have seven days to accept the CIRA registrant agreement to seal the deal. Most registrars have integrated this step into the process of buying the domain. The domain will not be functional until the agreement has been accepted.
Add grace period (5 days)
This period has little effect on registrants. The domain is fully registered and responds as a domain in the registered state would. During this period, registrars have the ability to cancel the domain name for a full refund if an error has been made.
Registration period (1-10 years)
The domain can be registered with a registrar anywhere from one to ten years at a time, and can be renewed with your registrar at any time prior to its expiry date. To save yourself from future issues, note the domain expiry date and be sure to renew before the domain expires. Some registrars offer an auto-renew service.
The domain expires
Upon the expiry date, CIRA will automatically renew your .CA for one year, charging your registrar. You will need to renew the domain with your registrar if you want to keep it. Your registrar has the ability to cancel this renewal, if you haven't renewed the domain with them. Expiry dates for .CA domains can be found by searching the WHOIS directory. If it's past your expiry date with your registrar, you will notice that the WHOIS record for your domain has changed to one year after the expiry date.
Auto-renew grace period (0-45 days)
If you don't renew your domain prior to the expiry date, it will enter the auto-renew grace period, which can be up to 45 days in length. The length of this period is controlled by the registrar managing the domain, and as such varies according to their own policies. During this period, the domain name may cease to function, this action is controlled by the registrar.
Redemption grace period (30 days)
If you didn't renew with your registrar during the auto-renew grace period, your domain is now deleted and enters a 30-day redemption grace period. During this period, the domain is no longer active - any websites or email addresses associated with the domain name will cease to function.
During this period, you may request that your registrar restore and renew the deleted .CA for one year. This is your final opportunity to renew the domain.
Domain is added to the To Be Released (TBR) list
Once the redemption grace period ends and you haven't renewed your domain, the domain name status will change to pending delete and will be put onto the TBR list. CIRA releases domains through the TBR session every Wednesday at 19:00 (UTC)– the TBR list is updated every day.
TBR session is held
For a domain to be included in a TBR session, it must appear on the TBR list for a minimum of 60 hours, up to one week. Only registrars can participate in the TBR session. If there is a domain name on the TBR list that you are interested in, contact a registrar that offers TBR as a service to express interest in registering the domain.
General availability
Domain names that were not registered during the TBR session become available to register shortly (less than 20 minutes) after the TBR session ends.
