Today I received an e-mail from former NFL wide receiver Alexander Wright regarding his 40 times.

I ran both times!"If this is true, and Wright is not lying, which I can't see why he would (He seems like a pretty decent guy), then it would make him the fastest player in NFL history.

By Ben Gruber NEW YORK, Jan 9 (Reuters) - The world's first billboard running solely on wind and solar power is ready to make its debut in the capital of all billboards New York's Times Square.

Wind whistling between the neighborhood's skyscrapers should keep the giant billboard lit constantly, said the manufacturer, Japanese copy and photo giant Ricoh Company Ltd (7752.T). "We wanted to make a statement that we can put up a advertisement and not impact the environment, so that began the journey to Times Square," Ricoh spokesman Ron Potesky said. A highly congested part of midtown Manhattan, Times Square is home to hundreds of huge, brightly lit billboards and video screens. Potesky said the power generated from the custom-built wind turbines will account for 95 percent of the energy needed to run the sign, which is 47 feet (14 metres) high by 126 feet (38 metres) long, and carries the company's name in huge red letters. "On the corner of 42nd (Street) and 7th (Avenue) there is a lot of wind. So we expect that this will be lit 24 hours a day seven days a week, mainly by wind power, a little bit by the sun," he said.
