    Can't see any, just a space for them, but I have seen it done similar way on other webs and it is probably OK if the part that I can't see isn't going against TOS.

    He's labeling the ads as "Latest News" and "Ad-Supported" when they can be only labled as Sponsered Links or Advertisements

    Yeah, it's a minor infraction, and easily rectified by changing the text. Considering all the other egregious violators out there: no big deal.

    As always, IMO.

    Amen to that. Imagine: at some point, the designer said to himself/herself, "OK, the header's done. This is good!"

    Agree, labeling "Latest News" could be termed as against Google's TOS
