I concur that the latest version with the softer colors looks a lot nicer, and I approve of the overall design.  I think that you should go back to using a change in the foreground color rather than the background color for the links in the main description, since at the moment it looks ugly.  I also think that it would look better if you could align the two columns in the top (i.e., the description text and the major links above the "News and Events" section) so that they align better with the two columns below;  you could probably also have the description text creep into the left margin so that it isn't exactly centered over the left column below, if that would look better.

Cheers,
Greg
