We can imagine that NPR sees the Urban T-shirt as an exercise in brand-awareness, and its presence on Urban's trendy hipster shelves will probably get noticed. But the fact that NPR promoted the Urban version of the T-shirt with a tweet stating "NPR T-shirt available at Urban Outfitters ($24 for local station encouraged first, tho)" is where the brand message gets a bit confusing. NPR is suggesting that prospective T-shirt buyers hand over $24 as a donation to their local stations, and then spend another $24 on the shirt at Urban...rather than simply promoting its own version on sale at its own shop, for its own profits.

Per-passenger losses ranged from $5 per passenger on the Northeast Regional to $462 on the Sunset Limited line, which runs all the way from New Orleans to Los Angeles. According to the Amtrak inspector general's September 2010 semiannual report, the rail service covered only about 84 percent of its operating costs in fiscal year 2010.

Natuurlijk schoot Batenburg direct zijn rolletje vol, maar nu blijkt dat dat helemaal niet mag van de RVD! "Als dit persvrijheid voorstelt, dan zijn we behoorlijk diep gezonken met z'n allen."

The government doesn't want you to know whether your internet or phone company is cooperating with its dragnet surveillance program because you might get upset and file lawsuits asserting your constitutional rights.
