Sorry I'm not a web developer so I'm not sure where this goes. It appears that
the style sheet isn't interpreted correctly.

Vertical height of menu text (box?) too high. In the example, on the left of the
page under the image of the girl several menu text lines are partially covered
so the text can't be read. It also happens on the pull-down menus across the top
of the page, try "Services". The mouseover causes the colour change which
highlights the problem.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. nothing to do, just look
2.

The page has 4px top and bottom paddings on those anchors in the left sidebar. 
So the anchors extend 4px above the top and bottom of the line box, and I would
expect a certain amount of overlap (4px, to be precise), since padding on
inlines does NOT affect placement of line boxes.

Over to tech evangelism.  This is just an authoring error.
