Nice work
* The new search button is much better.
* I would switch the news articles to change on click, not mouseover. The distance between map marker and news link is too far; too many other markers can accidentally be moused over. This is most obvious when mousing over a marker that is surrounded by other markers (typically like Swiss results). Plus, when you click, you expect something to happen, not so much when you mouseover.
* You should make the fonts a consistent size between the input fields, select fields, and their labels.
* The Facebook like button is a little lost in the top right. I would consider putting it just below the bottom left corner on the map.
* The thumbs look better. I would still pad them 3-5px more on the right. Then make the title text flush with the top of the images.
* Your bottom banner ad jumps around depending on the length of article results. Presumably, you'll want to change that.
* But all of these things kind of play 2nd fiddle to having more markers appear on the map and making the article results seem more closely tied to the map results. The example of searching "Obama" and only seeing one marker on the US is the kind of thing to fix.
* BTW, good job on making the page load fast.
