Sidebar help

On my site http://kellz.freehostia.com

I have tried to put some google ads in a sidebar on the right hand side. They appear fine but the content of the main page then starts at the bottom of the google adds.

I was wondering if anyone could help me so that the content of the main page runs alongside the ads.

The CSS is

Code:
