The first piece of  advice I have is: don't post  screenshots - they are
useless. I can't  cut and paste from the screenshot  to try to reproduce
the problem, so  I would have to type  the damn thing in (or  as in this
case, hunt around in the links you provided to find something that I can
work with). Why are you making  life difficult for the people whose help
you are seeking? Just include your org file directly in the email - see
below for an example.

What version of emacs/org are you using? I can't reproduce this ordering
problem, although I  do have troubles producing the  code listings.

Versions:
Org-mode version 8.2.5h (release_8.2.5h-682-g080f1d @
/home/nick/elisp/org-mode/lisp/)

GNU Emacs 24.3.50.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.6.4) of
2014-02-28

Here is the org file I used:

    - subpoint b


* Another slide

** Graphics

*** a picture

*** another picture

* And another
** More interesting stuff

*** some C++ code
#+begin_LaTeX
\begin{lstlisting}[language=c++] for (int i = 1; i != 10; ++i)
    std::cout << i << ": hello, world!"
              << std::endl; \end{lstlisting}
#+end_LaTeX

*** and some Python

#+begin_LaTeX
\begin{lstlisting}[language=python] for i in range(1,10):
        print i, "hello, world!"  \end{lstlisting}
#+end_LaTeX

If I get rid of the code  listings, everything works as expected for me.
With the code listings I get this error - no idea why:
