    POSTSCRIPTS ...
    Libya has reported its first case of AIDS as the number of
 cases world-wide rose by nearly 10,000 in August, according
 to the World Health Organization.  WHO said in its latest
 monthly report there was a total of 283,010 officially
 notified AIDS cases in 157 countries in August, up from
 273,425 in July....  French farmers hijacked a truck
 carrying British sheep yesterday near Nyons in southeastern
 France and released the animals onto the streets.  The
 farmers, convinced that imports of low-cost meat are driving
 down French prices, have hijacked at least 19 trucks carrying
 imported livestock and meat since June.
