Splitting long news and blog entries into multiple pages:
Pagify version 1.0 now offers the page splitting as a separate function to be used in other plugins.
It shouldn't be too hard to include this in the news manager:
Otherwise, if you need paging of long content, you can always use the basic solution without News Manager as described here ;-)
P.S. The new I18N Search plugin also allows other plugins to add their content to the full text index and include it in searches.

Code:

# this is the content of the news item, as it would be output to the page:
$content = ...;
...
# determine somehow (e.g. configuration setting), if page splitting is requested
if (function_exists('return_pagify_content') && ...) {
# get page number from URL, e.g.
$pageNum = @$_GET['page'];
# determine requested page length (e.g. configuration setting)
$pageSize = ...;
# what is the link to this news/blog item? Include place holder %PAGE% for page number
$link = 'http://server/link/to/my/news/item?page=%PAGE%';
# split content into pages and get content for current page with page navigation
$content = return_pagify_content($content, $pageSize, $pageNum, $link);
