The uppermost nav menu is a blob of text, the nav item "standards" is repeated (Standards, STANDARDS, standards, STANDARDS) like the date of a monster truck rally, and there's no obvious difference between left-nav and top-nav. It looks like a blog from 2005 viewed in a browser with the wrong fonts. Who designed it?

It looks like a cheap bastardization of Drupal's default template that I think they launched with Drupal 5 several years ago.
Quite simply I think they tried too hard. The gradients and whitespace are extremely clumsy. It would look 10 times better with flat colors and standardized on some kind of grid and font size scheme.
