selecting stories from multiple categories

Is there some way via $story->list (or anything else) to
select  
stories from more than one specific category, such as

$story->list({element_key_name => "news",
category_uri => "/news/ 
health/, /news/arts/, /news/education/" Order =>
"cover_date"});   ?


The reason that I ask is that we want to select all stories
from a  
particular week or month, in certain categories only
(explicitly NOT  
in certain other categories), and ordered descending by
cover date of  
each story, i.e. not sorting all health by cover date then
all arts  
by cover date, etc. but by cover date regardless of
category.

Thanks,
Ashlee
