The list can be arranged in one of the logical parts of the page.
In the standard style - is left (Notes), right (News) and the main part of the content (middle).
Naturally, in a different style left and right sides can change or even to unite with each other (and the main content may not be at the center and left or right).
What would decide what and where is - open the main page of your project, and if you were not able to remove objects from the standard News, you'll see them :-) - columns and news articles.

If not selected - the list will be located in the News (in the standard style - right).
