ok, good
#island_calendar_table .tdheader {
background-color:#2153AA;
}
will change only the tdheader class inside the island_calendar_table (id) for example
you'd need to make sure that css is included after the original definitions. (my guess is style.css gets loaded last, so put that in the bottom of that file)
then the cascading part of Css take effect

to go further, say we wanted to restyle the link (A tag) for "october"
#island_calendar_table .tdheader a:link {
color:#FFFFFF;
}
would make it White.. and so on..
the selectors themselves cascade

finally, make the alt-1 class inside the div have a lighter background
#island_calendar_table .alt-1 {
background-color:#F3F7FB;
}
end result is:

and it doesn't overwrite any of the existing .tdheader, .alt-1 rules, since i make these ONLY apply INSIDE of that div
ps, i also recommend a Firefox plugin (Stylish) that gives you even more control over the Site CSS (for testing)..
Colorzilla is a must too..
Matter of fact, i use stylish for THIS site, to restyle certain things from the supplied ubbcentral default style.
