2 almost identical pages, one is not right

The only difference in these two pages that I can see is the head tags and the contents of the table in the content part of the page. But the pies page has a large dark brown stripe under the navigation that I can't get rid of, and the navigation is misaligned.

Help?

This isn't CNN.  URL's aren't filtered.  Please provide the URL's without the [dot] and [slash]
It looks like it may be the width of the images on the pies page. Although, I'm not in any way supporting the use of tables and images for your entire page.  I can tell you did it in Dreamweaver design/code view. So can you paste your code here for both pages?
You have two factors stretching out your table. 1. The table height is set to 800. 2. The far right column in your menu bar has an image set to 557 height.
Try to find html code errors. This usually appears when there are such errors

@hmccurdy, I have posted full URLs here before and then seen them in search results, so I will continue posting them like this.

LZ1, I will post code in a minute here, thanks.

xmediaman, I will look at that, thanks.

user_n, that is not much help, but thanks anyway.
@xmediaman, all the files have the same dimensions for the table height and the height of that image. Other pages work with it. Additionally, if I take the two heights away in firebug, the problem stays.

Thanks to everyone for your help!
The two pages should not have the same heights as they do not have the same content. I would look at it again, but I'm not trying to paste that url together again. I seem to recall removing the table height and adjusting the far right column to a smaller height. You may have to play with the heights to get it right. If you want the table height to remain 800, you'll need to increase the height of the bottom row. As it is, the bottom row is not full and it's splitting the extra height among the rows.
