Hide Navigation and Set up Right Column

Hi,

I am hoping someone can help me with two things. First I am trying to turn off the EasyBlog nav that appears on the front-end. I have the Show Blog navigation menu item set to No in the Layout section under Settings. Is there somewhere else I need to go to turn this off? A screen shot of everything I am trying to get rid of is attached.

Second, is there a way to add an Archives and Recent Posts section in the right column? A screen shot of what I am trying to do with that is also attached.

Thanks!
