If the content is going to change it looks as if you will need scrollable divs. Set the size and add overflow: auto; (or overflow: scroll which will always show scroll bars).

For dynamic uploading RSS is often used by major websites so that viewers always have the up to date content.

PHP or SHTML is often recommended if you want to update yourself without changing the whole page or many pages where the same information is to be shown.

For SHTML or PHP you insert a code in each page and create a separate "include" file which means you only update one file which only has your News code.
