This theme is a two-column theme for WordPress called Split Level (it’s a theme I used on The English Guy for several months). There is one column for the posts, and one column acting as the sidebar; the split level part comes from the fact that the entire theme is split into two horizontal levels.
This is more than your standard two-column WordPress Theme however, as you can see you can modify the index.php and the second menu to select whatever categories you use and want to concentrate on. There is a README.txt file which instructs you on how to modify the theme for your own purposes.
You can see this theme in action on The English Guy or use the theme switcher below.
All of the major sidebar functionality is written in, with a lot of contents to show you how to alter it to your own tastes.
