 * Hello, I am new to wordpress and have successfully installed it and am able to
   use it with the standard templates.
    I would like to incorporate it into a current
   site I have. I have been reading through information about “The Loop” and I think
   i can figure out how to use it. The question I have is what file do I need to
   include at the top of my page to include all of the functions that WordPress 
   uses? Basically I want to just incorporate the blogs, the “Archives” portion 
   of the right bar, and the comments section into the homepage of a current site.
   Can someone recommend a good article to read or tutorial to go through that would
   help me?
 * Thank you,
 * Nate
