The other two (the Book News, and the Site News) are ones that I wrote myself. They're basically identical hacks but each one looks to a different forum ID for the info, and use different templates. The book news is a public forum, the site news is a private forum so can't be seen in the forums by guests and members (but it can by me )
In writing them, I used code and ideas from several of the news hacks available here. To cut the title after x charcters, have a look at KuraFire's newsportal and thread overview hack and Tubedog's latest threads hack. To pull forum info to a non-vb page have a look at vbhome or vbindex (look for the news bits in the code).
I suppose if enough people are interested I could release them as a separate hack (when I get a bit more time )
