IE Blue

you forgot to close link tags accordingly:
look for <link href= tags and make sure you closed them with /> instead of >.

for instance line 18:
<link href="http://waterrover.com/css/text.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

should be:

<link href="http://waterrover.com/css/text.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>

btw, you can use the following website http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2F74.81.196.208%2Fxsteetimes%2F1%2Findex.htm&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0&user-agent=W3C_Validator%2F1.3
to validate your webpages, it lists all markup errors.
alternatively you can use web tools for IE

When I implement steps suggested by sedgwick and sudaraka the Headers are visible in IE9 but not with the Cufon effect I'm looking for. Also the effect is gone in Moz and Chrome.

did u fix all the markup errors you found?
did u update the webpage?

if you did, i'll run a sanity and let you know if i found more errors.

http://validator.w3.org/check passed:
This document was successfully checked as XHTML 1.0 Transitional!
yes, updated.

Moz error console now throwing syntax and cufon definition errors:

Ok I was looking at: http://74.81.196.208/xsteetimes/1/blank.htm
