I am using Chrome on Windows 7. The menu bar on the top of the page cuts off the title and the bottom of the page slightly cuts off the * FOR PEOPLE WHO MAKE WEBSITES.
Is that the way it should look?

You can fix this pretty easily if you use a browser extension like Stylebot to customize your page styling - it's great when something just annoys you aesthetically.
Here's my first pass at a correction that seems to work with the main pages, although I'm sure I'm missing something somewhere:
.home-page .killer-logo { top: 40px; overflow: visible; }
.killer-logo { top: 82px; overflow: visible; }
.home-page .wide-hero, .issue-page .wide-hero { padding-top: 136px; }
.wide-hero { padding-top: 98px; }
.global-footer { padding-bottom: 100px; }
.deadly-subtitle { bottom: 10px; height: 60px; }
.global-footer .inline-items { margin-bottom: 2px; }
.main-wrapper.stacker:first-of-type { margin-top: 198px; }
.single-column-display, .two-column-display, .multi-column-display { margin-top: 198px; }
What's sad is that ALA now feels... ordinary. It used to be very aesthetically pleasing, now it's just boring (my opinion).
I see the same thing. I have a hard time believing it is intentional, but even so, I think it looks sloppy.

I'm a lot less impressed by a fricking navigational toolbar that obscures the top of every letter of the logo. What remains are the less recognizable bottom halves of the letters. The T and I (not shown, but also F) look identical for instance. I'll believe that this is intentional, but I think it looks horrible.
I thought that with this page.
So, that's one glaring difference.
It feels to me a bit like a glossy magazine printed on good quality stock having a cover with a crease in it by design. Most would just assume they got a creased copy until the saw the others.
edit: ahh for me the stylish add-on helps. Add padding-top: 150px to .main-wrapper and padding-top: 75px to .killer-logo. Apologies to the designers, but it was really, really bothering me.
