Craigslist has given in to the immense media attention regarding its "erotic services" ads and announced they are shutting the section down. In its place they are now adding an "adult" section, which appears to hawk the same type of personal adult services. A lot of this occurred after it was discovered that a killer used Craigslist to stalk his victims, who were offering adult services. Since then the nasty subject of teenage prostitution on Craigslist has been covered in the mainstream press and the site has been referred to as an "online bordello."

I had my quibbles here and there with the series -- like my dislike of Walter Bishop -- but the more I watched, the more I enjoyed. And now, last night, I think that they aired a pretty great season finale. Don’t worry, I have quibbles still, but I definitely enjoyed it more than I didn’t. First up, the good -- over the course of the season, the show created several mysteries that were intriguing, and they actually went and answered a few of them last night. We learned who William Bell was, we learned where he was, and we actually saw him. For me, those
