 * Would like to hide the sidebar (recent posts and popular posts) on left, in the
   theme. I don’t want to delete them, just hide.
 * Also, at the bottom of the page, there is a left, middle and right side bar. 
   Black background, with the text. I don’t mind the black boxes but would like 
   to actually delete the text that is in them.
 * Not sure which PHP files I need to edit, in either of these two questions.
 * Thanks much!
