    Your ads are placed pretty well, low CTR is because of ads content not perfectly related to site content. It'll take time to increase CTR but it'll happen sooner or later.

    You can try placing the ads above the fold. Use the horizontal link unit and see how it goes :)

    For starters, check out these adsense tips.

    Then:
    - I would experiment by using the top adsense banner without the black background
    - The scrolling text is currently the item that catches the reader's eye. You might want to get rid of that.
    - Yellow link colors could be something else... try it out.
