Hi Josip

You can pass a lambda into either an OrderBy or an OrderByDescending query...

var selection = Model.Content.Site().FirstChild("news").Children("newsItem").Where(x => x.IsVisible()).OrderByDescending(x=>x.CreateDate).Take(2);

.. but be careful as this approach would first get all the News Articles into memory before ordering by date, and then returning only 2 items, so could be un-performant with hundreds of articles, you'd certainly want to cache the output in a macro, so it's not continually making this query...

....There was a talk by Dave Woestenborghs, called the need for speed, with slides detailing your exact scenario and the relative speeds of the different approaches:

so you might find one of these approaches (see slide 55) XPath Navigator approach worth investigating if you have tons of News Articles.
