Yahoo ignoring meta description

Hello,

I'm working on a site and the client mentioned that Yahoo is ignoring the meta descriptions. The site is here:

http://www.bracelet.name/

Google is displaying the meta descriptions fine. I've checked the code and everything appears to be good there. It's not pulling the description from ODP or Yahoo's direction, it's just ignoring the description altogether and displaying content from further down the page.

Here's a Yahoo search showing it:

http://search.yahoo.com/search;_ylt=AvNGHS2dO5o7XEIL4_kgec2bvZx4?p=name+bracelets&toggle=1&cop=mss&ei=UTF-8&fr=yfp-t-701

it is the 4th organic search result: "Name Bracelets 'Build-Your-Own' Name Bracelet - Try It Free!"

Does anyone have any ideas why Yahoo won't displaying the meta descriptions? I'm all out of ideas.

Thanks!
