Suckerfish Menu

Hi -
I've been experimenting with ALA's suckerfish menu. In my draft version, I'm unable to get rid of a block of color on the right side of the drop down menu. Can someone please look at my (feeble) coding and figure out what I've inserted and/or omitted that causes this problem?

Thanks,
KDLA
