It does appear to be a font size issue. I brought it down a notch.
But clearly, my code is not validating and I have work to do, arrgghhh.

Thanks to everyone who replied!

On my Linux PC running Firefox 3.0 at default text zoom Operations is also
missing, but changing the zoom level (either bigger or smaller) and it
sometimes reappears. Looking at the source of the page, it is definitely
there. I would imagine this means it is a wrapping issue, it does not have
quite enough space, so it wraps to

Finance &
Operations

but Operations is cut off due to the height of the containing element
