Hi,

the site got a lot of interesting info and content.

The design is maybe a bit too patchwork (no offence)

-top logo with the salamander purple/light blue
-banner hearder with the duck medium blue
-widget right neon blue textured paper effect (overpowering imao)
-review widget with another blue

To have the same colour in all different areas of the page would give a more professional look to the site.

The navigation needs to be simplified, it seems to have some sub domains with different theme templates and different homepage like beat's blog and beat news, it's confusing (may be you could include it in a blogroll link?)

Also the visitor should be abble to access the links to subscribe, contact at any the time even on a full page template (it disapears in advocacy section)

Hope it helps.
All the best
