pcation of Cupola

I have a 55' long ridgeline one story house (rancher). In the front is a porch that comes out about 6' from the front of the house. Of course that ridge line intersects with the main ridgeline. Where is the best place to position the cupola, in the center of the main ridgeline, on the ridgeline of porch roof, or offset on the ridgeline like 1/3 the length of the ridgeline?

The cupela is where goes OUT of the attic. For maximum air circulation, you want it as far from where the air comes IN as you can manage. Thus, if you have gable vents at both ends, you put it in the middle. There's only one gable vent, shift the cupela away form it. If you have no other vents, the cupela isn't going to do you much good.

Assuming it is a real cupola, of course- most I have seen lately in the stores are decorative only.
