1) It is very important to be extra careful not to have any Machlokes, discord, in the home on Motzaei Shabbos as the Satan works diligently to cause people to ruin the Shalom Bayis, harmony, which Shabbos brought to the home. (Sefer Darchei Chaim V'Shalom Siman 470)
Similarly, the Talmud (Gitin 52a) tells us that the Satan tries to cause Machlokes in the home on Erev Shabbos, in order to not allow peace to reign in the home already at the onset of Shabbos. (See Ben Ish Chai, year 2, Parashas Vayeira Siman 1 Dibur Hamaschil V'Da. See also Kaf HaChaim from HaRav Chaim Palagi Zatzal, Siman 27:35 where he writes that one who has Machlokes on Erev Shabbos risks bad things happening to them during the coming week.)
2) Before Birchas Hamazon on Motzei Shabbos we say Al Naharos Bavel like on any other weekday and not Shir Hama'alos as we say on Shabbos. (Ruling of Maran HaRav Chaim Kanievsky Shlita in Sefer Sh'eilas Rav page 338. Some communities have the custom to indeed say Shir Hama'alos, as on Shabbos, as long as the Birchas Hamazon is still before Chatzos)
During the Birchas Hamazon after the Seudah of Melave Malka, "Migdol Yeshuos Malko" is recited as it is on Shabbos, instead of "Magdil Yeshuos Malko".

Reader's Question:
Are there any heterim for sephardim to eat non kemach yoshon products?
Answer:
The Bet Yosef (whose rulings the Sephardim follow) rules pretty clearly in Shulchan Aruch Orach Chaim Siman 489:10 and in Yoreh Deah Siman 293:2 that it is prohibited to eat Kemach Chodosh both in Eretz Yisroel and in Chutz L'Aretz.
