Ruby on Rails

I have an application with items such as articles, bulletins, events, weekly specials,… Each of these has its own MVC implmentation
and works well.

What I would like to do is have the home page display a dashboard that contains many of these items, for example the last few articles,
a weekly special, upcoming events, and any bulletins with urgent news for the users.

How do I go about getting all of these things to appear on the page and in side bars? Can I just render them from the layout (this doesn't seem to work
but I could be doing it wrong), or use content_for?

Please point me in the right direction.

Matt
