I tried to access the Circvs, but it looks like it's down. What the heck is wrong?

It's renewed. The "automatic safe renew" feature appears to have not automatically, safely renewed it. I had to go do it manually. Should be fine; maybe some propogation issues?

Now it will just take time for DNS servers to stop caching the old info and all should be well....
Thank goodness...I was not going crazy. Yeah,it has been down since, like 8:00 a.m.+ EST, when I checked it last.
For people that still can't get there due to cached entries on their DNS server, you can add the following to your hosts file to get there in the interim:

Good. At least it wasn't something horrible like the server crashing or something.

And for us not as clever what did you do with the info?
reveal pointed out it is only a temp fix. If the IP address ever changes you will have to remove the line from your HOSTS file. Find your HOSTS file. I don't know which OS you're using. Open it in a text editor and copy the IP address and URL above into it. Make sure there is at least one space in between.
