Crossnumber #4

Here's the latest of the series of crossnumber puzzles I've constructed using the PuzzleMe® platform from Amuse Labs. Still not dense enough, but I think the clues are interesting and it should be fun. Enjoy! (I should say, as far as instructions go, all answers are rounded to the nearest whole number on the grid.)
