Please enlighten me as to the proper ordering of the following Insert effects.
EQ
Noise Gate
Compressor
Also if anyone can explain the impact of Delay after Reverb or the other way around, it would be most appreciated.
I am using Logic Audio 4.2.3 for my mixes.

If you're using Logic to process your mixes digitally, a noise gate isn't really needed as you can totally silence the noise using the editing tools in Logic.
Delay after reverb would give you delayed reverb, reverb after delay would reverberate the delays... er, it's like that basically. The results can vary hugely depending on how you set the FX levels (dry/wet etc) in the modules, so again the key is to experiment and hear what does what.

I could see using the expander/gate plug for squishing headphone leakage in a vocal track. Vocal tracks can sound a little weird if you silence the gaps too completely. Just take it down to the point where the instrumental tracks mask it.
