With most Americans enjoying a three-day weekend, here are some interesting stories to check out:
The Night the Ali-Liston Fight Came to Lewiston - New York Times. It amazes me that a heavyweight title fight ended up being staged at an arena built by a Catholic parish to host high school hockey.
Unclimbable - SBNation
Doc: Justice for Oscar Robertson, 60 Years Removed - Cincinnati Enquirer. Just a small reminder what life was like back in the Fifties.
My Letterman Years - Grantland
What do we need to fight climate change? More worms. - Grist
The Kinetic Wood Sculptor - priceonomics
Will Art Save Our Descendents from Radioactive Waste? - JSTOR Daily
In the Beginning - Aeon
American Innovation Lies on Weak Foundation - New York Times
America's Virulent, Extremist Counterterrorism Ideology - Foreign Policy
Why Children Are Abandoning Baseball - Wall Street Journal. Not just baseball (although most dramatically), but all organized sports. Just a guess: adults taking the fun out of it.
