1. You can get rid of the "single" page. Use the same page for single and list views. This will remove /single_news_view/. Make sure you set up 301 redirects in .htaccess to make Google happy.
2. You can get rid of the /archive/2009/01/ by tt_news configuration
3. You can get rid of /article/ by using fixedPostVars instead of postVars.

In total these three steps will create http://www.example.com/news/title.html. Much better to my taste :)

If you want to keep archive information, make a fixedPostVar for that page that includes three vars: year, month and news item title.
