Monks in Louisville Create Tribute to Ali

LOUISVILLE, Ky. - By meticulously tapping sand out of foot-long steel funnels, eight Tibetan monks are creating a sacred artwork to commemorate the friendship of Louisville native Muhammad Ali and the Dalai Lama.

Seated on thin mattresses in the glass-enclosed lobby of a Louisville building, the monks started on the multicolored mandala Monday, and are due to finish it next week.
