Newbie Needs Help

Can someone please help me on the following issues:
1. If you look at my website http://www.bestworldgolf.com you will see that there is information printed on upper portion of site above the heading. I don’t know how to get rid of it.
2. I have been trying to add widgets to my sidebars but when I go to the widget page and try to drag them over they will not move. What am I doing wrong?
3.Finally, how can I get into the html on the front page to change a word? The previous owner wrote the word favourites instead of favorites. I want to change that but don’t know how.
Any help you can give me would be most appreciated…
Thank you in advance.
