Add this to your javascript:
---------------------------------------------------------------
var $tabs2 = $('#tabs').tabs(); 
$('#services').click(function() { 
    $tabs2.tabs('select', 1); // switch to second tab
    return false;
});
---------------------------------------------------------------

Add the id "services" to your navigation:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Services 
---------------------------------------------------------------


This is also covered here under "...select a tab from a text link instead of
clicking a tab itself"
http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Tabs

And here under "triggering, enabling and disabling"
http://stilbuero.de/jquery/tabs/
