A couple things I've noted. Overall there are no problems with the new design. When I load the site in Firefox, however, the Flash items jump all over the page momentarily until it is entirely loaded. I don't think this happens in Internet Explorer, so maybe it is a case of not testing the site on alternative (<*-cough-*> better <*-cough-*>) browsers. Also, I like the fact that under news stories there is a link to related stories; what I don't like is that a dropdown list appears with those related stories when you simply mouse over the link. Unexpected dropdowns are never fun. It would be better if users had to click to get the list.
Some of the sections are a little busy with the list of stories quite compact with little to break them up and show that they are separate headlines.
