Thanks for the responses. I am still looking but I think, I may have found one that may be promising. It is from echoarticles.com

It has a nice article manager and also is suppose to allow you do a PHP include of the script on any page you want and pull articles from the script database and allow you to pass paramaters like how many articles to list, how to sort them, etc.

They are just in the process of releasing version 2.0 and are in beta testing, so it is not available at this time but should be shortly.

If I use this one, I will follow up on how it worked out.
