I'm fine with the text being black, if anything I'd consider this less 
distracting than the "standard style". That said, the links seem far too 
mellow to me, the underlines are light enough that I don't notice them 
as I'm reading, while I prefer to notice them. I'd bump them up to as 
visible as the :hover underlines.

Also, the title anchors on the right side are also having the :hover 
effect applied (Firefox 1.0.4) which is rather distracting.

Also, something's weird with the images for the search - they're 
overlapping. Matter of fact, that whole area is messed up.
