Start by reducing the size and number of images that you use on that page. 30 images is just exessive. Let's start with your header and menu - it should really be just one or two images - you are using 16 !!! Why??? Each one needs a request, a send and an acknowledgement, so obviously it all goes a bit slowly and the page jerks around and waits for all of them to arrive.

Then there's that black head image - you should resize it from it's natural 350px × 340px to the size you use on the web page 176px × 170px IN A GRAPHICS EDITOR, not in the browser.

And finally, you are using TABLES for layout - move into the 21st century and use divs! Table layouts are from last century and tables are actually intended to be used for tables of data, not for layout. The browser has to wait until it has enough info to work out if the table size needs changing before it is finished laying out the page
