I've tried searching but am not sure exactly how I can accomplish this.

For our web site we need to have blocks showing lists of Upcoming Events, Recent News, and Upcoming Seminars. I thought of using a blog so users can go in and add this content as needed.

Using the Recently Added block, all blogs are updating into one block, like so: http://www.mario-kart.net/gamespy/images/7201blogs.gif

I want them to update separately into different blocks, like so: http://www.mario-kart.net/gamespy/images/3198blogs2.gif

Is there an easy way to do this? Thanks in advance.

In an effort to solve this, I began experimenting with the Panels module I discovered today.

Perhaps instead of displaying the blog posts in blocks, I can do something like this: http://www.mario-kart.net/gamespy/images/2333blog3.gif

The problem is that this requires the use of two Page nodes. One Page node to display a list in the panel of the stories, and another Page node to actually list all of the stories. This is not as good as using a Blog module, which will automatically create a list with titles (such as shown in Recent Blog Posts in my image above) and it will automatically create a full page of the information posted.

An update in case anyone finds this topic and is searching for a similar answer. I think I've figured out a solution using a little creative brainpower and the information in this node: http://drupal.org/node/23230. Take a look.
