Oops – I should have realized that the html in the previous message would cause issues – I’ll retry, with some workaround. Please delete the previous message, and feel free to remove this one as well, after passing on the content to your webmaster.
Regarding the display issues you are experiencing – where [] are standing in for angle brackets:
The 4th item in your list’s anchor tag ( [a href=”” target=”_blank”] etc.) is not complete (the full URL is not in the href and the quotes are not closed – and the anchor tag is not terminated (e.g. [/a]) ) before the div to clear).
This should help your webmaster to debug the issue.

Thank you so much, Sivani! I had asked our blog owner to look at my formatting issues; but as soon as I saw your comment, I knew what had happened and how to fix it. (How embarrassing! I blew up my own blog.)
My blog has the best readers in the world! I really appreciate the trouble you took to help me get back on line!
Hugs,
Denise
