The yellow goes down in the final kilo on the final climb (after brushing Kirchen's tire) and Kirchen takes over the yellow. They also have Lovkvist in the white.

Voeckler is back to form, giving up the polka dot after huffing and puffing up a real climb and finishing minutes behind the leaders.

I believe it is the old T-Mobile team. Columbia of sportswear fame, hence one of the two U.S. teams in the race this year. Hincapie moved over when Discovery disbanded. Here is the website:

I thought Columbia was the new name for team High Road. Did they really used to be T-Mobile?

Religion rises inevitably from our apprehension of our own death. To give meaning to meaninglessness is the endless quest of all religion. When death becomes the center of our consciousness, then religion authentically begins. Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.
