text:That's right. The sugary, lemon-lime soda you loved in the 1990s is back -- at least temporarily.

Coca-Cola reintroduced Surge, which was discontinued in 2003, in 12-packs on Amazon.com, with the same retro packaging.

Unfortunately for fans who heard the news too late, it's already sold out.

But Coke said it's interested in further exploration of digital media and online sales.

“If expectations are met, this may be only the first of a variety of efforts we explore to launch niche products through e-commerce relationships” said Wendy Clark of Coca-Cola North America in a blog post.

quicklist:3title: Urban Outfitters' Latest Mistake text: Oops.

Urban Outfitters apologized for selling a Kent State sweatshirt made to look like it was splattered with blood -- a scary reminder to some shoppers of the 1970 shootings at the university.

The top was listed as sold out on the brand's website, but was listed for resale on eBay before being removed.

Urban Outfitters apologized on Twitter and pointed out that only one of the sweatshirts was made and sold.

“Urban Outfitters sincerely apologizes for any offense our Vintage Kent State Sweatshirt may have caused," the retailer said. "It was never our intention to allude to the tragic events that took place at Kent State in 1970 and we are extremely saddened that this item was perceived as such.
