This plugin will retrieve any number of articles given a category
name, perhaps useful for sticky posts, etc.

Example template code:

{if $getcategory}
 <div id="Press">
  <h2><a href="/category/press-releases">Press Releases</a></h2>
  {assign var="pressarticles" 
          value=$getcategory->getArticles("Press Releases", 3)}
  {foreach from=$pressarticles item=pa}
   <p>
    {assign var="postTitle" value=$pa->getTopic()}
    {assign var="permLink" value=$url->postPermalink($pa)}
    {if $postTitle != "Press and Analyst Contacts"}
       <a href="{$permLink}">{$postTitle}</a><br/>
       {$pa->getText()|strip_tags|truncate:300:" ...":false}
    {/if}
   </p>
  {/foreach}
 </div>
{/if}
