Thanks again for another excellent post. It's really starting to look great.
All the good stuff is there from your last post and here's what I think of the new stuff:
- the new colors work well together and still look business-like without being too boring.
- you've done a great of making the 'Industry' and 'Regulatory Area' blocks look different to the content blocks.
- the new breadcrumb trail looks much better but I think I'd like it to stand out more (so it's reallly obvious to a visitor).
- I still think the body text in 'Top Story' and 'Expert' may be too small.
- I really don't like the new icons in the 'Industry' and 'Regulatory Area' blocks. I'd be happy with no icons unless you can think of something else.
- I'm afraid to say I prefered your original set of icons for 'Top Story', 'Expert', 'Resource Centre' and 'Event'.
- I also prefered the blue background color of the blocks in the left column in your first post.
- is there a different way to do the tabs in the 'Most Popular News' block? I think the current way would make it confusing as to which tab you were looking at (because there's only two of them).
Here are two minor changes I'd like:
- please can you rename the 'Regulations' block to 'Regulatory Area'
- please can you move the 'more' link in the 'Top Story' block to between the content and the tags (at the moment it's on the same line as the tags)
Disclosure: I created everything in my entry and I didn't copy anyone else's concept. (?)
I have highlighted "industry" and "Regulations' area and also used some variation of icons for attracting and easily location for the viewers , if you want any portion as highlighted and also if you need variations of icons, please let me know.

As always, I hope the feedback is helpful.
