...although Columbia nabbed the league title, and although the Crimson failed to earn one of the region's two NCAA bids, the booters did succeed in doing to the Bulldogs (5-8-2, 2-3-2) just what the Bulldogs did to the gridders hours later at the Bowl...

...completely drowns out Strummer's vocal in New Order-ripoff rhythm tracks. "Cool Under Heat" opens with a Husker Du guitar lead, and combines inappropriate acoustic guitar with more electronic abuse.

"They tried to destroy the link between her and me," the President said. "But they did not succeed." Nevertheless, it is evident that the time in captivity has deeply scarred Duarte Duran. An energetic mother of three, she ably assisted her father in his 1984 presidential campaign.
