Context-based Menus

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to how I would go about creating a simple context-based menus system using side-by-side sidebars as in this site: walterbernarddesign.com

The intended usage would play out like the example on this page: walterbernarddesign.com/ourwork/newspapers/barrons

I'm sure there must be a relatively straight-forward solution for doing something like this, but so far it escapes me.

I'll be using the Omega theme to develop with, if that's any help (Thank you, Jake). I hope this isn't too simplistic a subject for a discussion. The example site is simple and clean, and just the model for a site I'm building for a friend.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Menu Block

Amazing module called Menu Block. http://drupal.org/project/menu_block

And if you want true 'context' awareness, there is a new module that connects Menu Block and Context, called
(amazingly) http://drupal.org/project/context_menu_block
Though, from your example, I expect just using multiple blocks, with each 'level' would be fine...

and using omega...

I'd just make the second and third menu level blocks side by side via omega, so if there was no 3rd, the content would take up that space, as in your example...

Thank you

Thanks Seth. I thought there must be something like that but couldn't find the combination. I appreciate the input.
