After a bit more tinkering I came up with the following solution.

HTML Source Code:

<style> <!-- .channel { width: 200px; font-family: arial; font-weight: 400; font-size: 11px; margin-bottom: 0px; } .channelDescription { width: 200px; font-size: 10px; margin-bottom: 0px;} .channelPublisher { width: 200px; font-size: 10px; margin-bottom: 0px;} .news { background-color: #eaeaea; display: block; padding: 2px;} .newsAlt { background-color: #ffffff; display: block; padding: 2px; } #newsItems { display: block; float: left; width: 480px; height: auto; border: #eaeaea 2px solid; padding: 2px; margin-bottom: -1em; } #newsItemLink1 { font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold;} #newsItemLink2 { font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold;} #newsItemLink3 { font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold;} #newsItemLink4 { font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold;} #newsItemLink5 { font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold;} #newsItem1 { float: left; width: 150px; height: 148px; font-size: 10px; } #newsItem2 { float: left; width: 150px; height: 148px; font-size: 10px; } #newsItem3 { float: left; width: 150px; height: 148px; font-size: 10px; } #newsItem4 { float: left; width: 150px; height: 148px; font-size: 10px; } #newsItem5 { float: left; width: 150px; height: 148px; font-size: 10px; } --> </style> <div style='width: 480px'> <script language="JavaScript" src="http://convert.rss-to-javascript.com/?talign=right&chan=0&desc=1&desc_max=65&date=0&num=3&font=&font_size=&bgcolor=&fgcolor=&src=http://www.anti-aging-revolution.net/p/AntiAging___335,,,352.xml"> </script> </div>

Does this format tickle your fancy? Here is another example of the same cross-browser bar, same source, but being 782 pixels wide five news blocks and more content easily fit. 

It's almost humorous the number of differences between my IE only version and the more cross-browser friendly version shown here.

Now I'm positive there are more then a few CSS experts out there who feel there is a better solution to the problem, if so, feel free to weigh in with your comments, critiques and suggestions in our spanking new Examples Discussion Forum.
