ZINTAN, Libya - Moammar Gadhafi's former heir apparent, Seif al- Islam Gadhafi, was captured by revolutionary fighters in the southern desert Saturday just over a month after his father was killed, setting off joyous celebrations across Libya and closing the door on the possibility that the fugitive son could stoke further insurrection.

Most often, when Daisy whirls through her Lucia di Lammermoor madness monologue and Hoke calms her down and she tells him he's her best friend, it's the trigger for tear ducts all over the room. Moss, Franz a...

Seif al-Islam turned up early Tuesday morning at the Rixos hotel, where about 30 foreign journalists are staying in Tripoli under the close watch of regime-minders. He then took reporters in a convoy of black, armored SUVs on a drive through parts of the city under the regime's control.
