The Most Influential People of All Time
This is a list of the most influential people of all of human history. This means that the individuals on this list have had a significant effect on how regular people live their lives today and have had a large impact on how modern society works. The names on this list include religious figures, scientists and inventors, and some of the most important leaders in world history. Vote for your top choices and re-rank this list your way.

What makes an individual worthy of a spot on a list of the most influential people ever? Certainly, some of the greatest minds of all time deserve to be ranked highly. Examples include Leonardo da Vinci, Sir Isaac Newton, and certainly Albert Einstein. Each one of these incredible people used the power of their minds to change the world. Not surprisingly, several names on this list are also among the most famous role models we'd like to meet in person.

And modern-era figures also deserve to be listed here. Can anyone argue that Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg aren't among the most influential contemporary Americans? It's time to add your opinions on who you believe are the most influential people who ever lived, with your votes and your rankings.

The Best Series Finales
This list of the best series finales in television is a somber reminder that no matter how much you love a TV character or a show, in time, they all will end. Your favorite TV couple, your favorite villain, and even your favorite television businesses will all close up shop at some point, and these are the best final episodes of those series that are no longer on the air. And believe it or not, some of the best TV shows ever didn't make the list because they straight up had bad finales.

This list includes the greatest television series finales in the history of television, ranked by TV viewers who had a strong reaction - good or bad - to the final episodes of their favorite shows. Some of these TV shows had the highest ranked series finales of all time while others are on the list simply for resonating with their fans. Some series finales, like the final episode of Newhart, are still talked about because people can't believe the show actually ended that way. Others, like M*A*S*H, rank high because they were emotionally fulfilling to the fans who had turned on their TVs and opened their lives to those most loved TV characters week after week, right up until the end.

What show had the best series finale? That's what this list is here to decide. Remember, the top series finales both wrapped up the storylines AND left viewers wanting more. Go easy on the series finales that came as a result of a show being cancelled, and make sure to add your favorite TV series finale if it's not already on the list.

The Most Beautiful Women of All Time
List of the most beautiful women of all time: ranked not on talent or accomplishments, but on looks alone. This is a test to see if the so-called "wisdom of the crowd" will actually be able to determine who the most beautiful woman of all time is. If you'd like to rank these women on more than their beauty, consult The Best Actresses in Film History list. This list does not only include the prettiest current actresses, but the most beautiful women in history.

So, who is the most beautiful woman ever? Of course, that woman may very well be a total unknown, but since it's impossible to list every woman who's ever existed, and one is less likely to rank people they don't know, this list will obviously be restricted to people who've achieved a fair level of celebrity. A "fair level of celebrity" is defined by being famous enough to have a profile page on Wikipedia or IMDB. Historical figures are accepted IF pictures of them are generally accepted as accurate. Add your own suggestions and this should hopefully be an ever expanding list.

The Greatest Minds of All Time
List of the Greatest Minds of All Time, throughout history. This list represents the most influential thinkers across various disciplines, ranked in a way that represents the power of their ideas and their impact on the world. The wisest men and women include top philosophers, physicists, famous poets, thinkers, teachers, physiologists, artists, inventors, engineers, the most irreplaceable CEOs in the world, economists and politicians and those whose talents span across many fields of study.

This list takes a historic perspective, so the greatest thinkers who are included on this list come from many different eras. The greatest minds of the 21st century may be quite different from great geniuses from the distant past, but each person should be judged within the context of the time that they were living. For example, inventing a new type of telephone in 2013 would not qualify one as "the most brilliant mind of all time," but in 1876 when Alexander Graham Bell first patented the telephone, it was an act of genius not seen before.

The Best NFL Coaches of All Time

The Best NFL Coaches of All Time
The best NFL coaches of all time are hands down the best men ever to lead their respective National Football League teams into battle. There are reasons why these men have teams, stadiums, video game franchises and that little thing given away annually to the Super Bowl champion named after them. These are the best NFL coaches to have ever lived, period.

Regardless of which NFL team you root for, there is little doubt that the vast majority of football fans would agree that Vince Lombardi is the greatest football coach in the history of mankind. As a forefather to the NFL, Lombardi coached the Green Bay Packers in the 1960s, leading them to five championships in a seven-year span including wins in the first two Super Bowls ever. His inspirational words are still widely used today as is his name which graces the title of the Lombardi Trophy, awarded to the annual champion of the National Football League.

But there are many more legendary NFL coaches of past and present that also deserve a place on this list for their brilliance, inspiration and undeniable success on the field. Coaches like Tom Landry, Don Shula, George Halas, Paul Brown and Chuck Noll were the leaders in the league a few decades ago while the best current NFL coaches like Bill Belichick, Mike Tomlin and Mike Shanahan continue to improve upon their already legendary status in NFL history.

How do you define which NFL coach is the best of all time? Is it from their championships and wins or do you look at their entire career to compare one body of work to another? However you do it, vote, add to or re-rank this list of the best NFL coaches of all time.

The Most Stylish Female Celebrities

The Most Stylish Female Celebrities
The most stylish female celebrities manage to capture our attention with their stunning fashion choices. Whether it's a classic Hollywood red carpet style or a more bold, unique outfit worn for a night on the town, the women on this list are without a doubt one of a kind fashionistas. They aren't afraid to take risks with their clothes, their hairstyles or with anything else for that matter. Sure, sometimes the risks don't pay off, but when they do? It's Hollywood gold -- and it's trend setting.

In 2013, People Magazine dubbed Kerry Washington the best dressed female celebrity. What do you think? Be sure to vote up your favorites, and vote down those celebrities you think fall far short of the style mark. Also, if you have a favorite celebrity style icon, be sure to add them to the list!

Celebrities often have access to a slew of fashion designers and stylists to help them select the perfect outfits, but even with that, some celebs just can't pull it all together. Not so for the stylish female celebs on this list. Each one demonstrates the confidence to rock almost anything - even things that other actresses, musicians and/or models would never, ever wear. Examples? Let's talk about the cool, trendy style of Gwen Stefani or the always fashionable Sarah Jessica Parker. Or how about the extraordinary style of Beyonce, Charlize Theron or Penelope Cruz? And then there's Kate Middleton, aka the Duchess of Cambridge. She exudes style wherever she goes, and she sets trends in a major way. Kate's hair, for example, is one of the most copied celebrity hairstyles of 2012.

Anyone who knows fashion will tell you that this is the key: great fashion involves more than just awesome clothes - it's also about attitude, whether it's owning the Oscars red carpet or just running to Starbucks on a lazy Sunday. Photogs are everywhere, so most A-list celebrities rarely throw on sweatpants and a dirty t-shirt to get their caffeine fix. They do, however, occasionally miss the mark (see: Angelina Jolie's right leg, but that was more of a pose issue than a fashion "don't"). But, all is usually forgiven, because these popular women are consistent in their stylish choices.

For more fashion-forward info on all the hottest female celebrities, check out these lists for the very best of the Golden Globes 2012 red carpet fashions and the best dressed women in hip-hop.

The Most Memorable Film Sidekicks Ever

The Most Memorable Film Sidekicks Ever
A list of the most memorable movie sidekicks of all time. The collection of colorful and unique characters in the list below represent some of the greatest roles ever played on the big screen. These legends of cinema act as a supporting player to the film's central characters, but it doesn't mean they are less important. Often, the sidekick appears throughout the movie as a confidant to the lead or protagonist but later plays a pivotal role in the plot. At times they provide comic relief to more serious dramas and epic adventures, while other times they end up as the emotional core of the entire storyline.

Trusted sidekicks in a famous film franchise also become some of the most beloved characters of all time because the audience identifies with them more than the hero. A right-hand man or woman offers support, gives advice, loyal to the protagonist and just plain awesome. Other times they turn to the dark side and turn into a cinematic villain, adding a twist or element of surprise to an otherwise boring plot. One thing remains the same, however, when it comes to supporting characters -- they are all scene-stealers. Upvote your favorites from the list of famous film sidekicksbelow, add characters missing from the list and don't forget to re-rank the list your way.

When you're done with this movie lover's list, check out which characters made the cut in the sexiest film characters list or the best action heroes ever.

What Are Favorite Your Physical Features on Women?
So simply put, bring up the argument of what the best feature is on a women. Shallow, if you view that way, we just personally think preference is important. We wouldn't be unique we all like the same thing. Now its time to vote for your favorite features and see what the world says too.
http://www.ranker.com/list/what-are-favorite-your-physical-features-on-women-/fwatdotnet,

Lips
You kiss them so there is huge preference. A nice full set of lips for us is just right. What about you? You like them full, small,... in the middle maybe?
Eyes
Eye contact is important and the phrase: "Love at first sight" is only possible when both of your eyes meet with each other for the very first time. There is just something about the colour blue that make eyes more beautiful.
The Back
The back doesn't do it for us either, unless it's the lower back and maybe if there were dimples and maybe if there was a tattoo. "Tramp Stamp?" Yeah, maybe it can do it for us. We do believe if you get a dope tattoo, and especially the dimples, it can be seen how it can be a sexy favorite. Kinda.
Feet
Ok, so what can be said about feet. You have the one body part that gets the closest to the ground every day. Produce odors unlike anything else. But apparently there is something about them that turn men on. You either like them or you don't. Do You?
Hair
Now every man will have his own opinion when it comes to hair. Blonde, Brunette, Red Head, Short, Long, Mohawk, we could go on forever. (don't be hating on the buzzcut look) But does the unlimited amounts of looks really matter to you?
Legs
We want to see them legs go on forever. As long as they are shaved then it doesn't matter what shape or length. This also includes thighs fetish fans because thicker legs usually means a thicker ass. This can be a great thing.
The Stomach
Now we are talking a sexy female body part. Although we have to say that we love the idea of a little ab definition but we are not totally shallow and we do prefer the stomach with a little bit of something there also.
The Booty
Yeah, I bet as soon as you started reading this list you could have guessed that butt was going to be voted either 1 or 2. It should be. The Booty can come in all different shapes and sizes. She will either have "no ass at all", a butt, an ass, a booty or a donk. If you like any of those kinds of cheeks, click the thumbs up.
The Chest
There is something about cleavage that just does it for men. Female breasts has even changed pop culture with the need to get them augmented. So it may be foolish to ask but regardless of size, are you a fan of a nice pair?
Smile
Some women really have the can just steal you away. We personally think it can be very sexy. How about you... You like a girl with a pretty smile?
