Summarize the following:
If you're installing a rod over a tub with a straight edge, position it in such a way that the curve extends equally into and out of the shower or tub space. For instance, if the arc of your shower rod extends six inches out from where it otherwise would be (if it was straight), place the ends three inches inside the tub. That way, the shower rod and curtain will perfectly straddle the line marking the edge of the tub. If you're installing a curved shower rod over a curved tub edge, position it in such a way that the curve of the rod aligns with the curve of the tub. The flanges are the mounts that hold the curtain rod. Once you've centered the shower rod over the edge of your tub and you know the height at which you want to install it, measure down from the ceiling on both sides, and then make a small mark with a pencil or marker on the spot where you'll need to install the flanges. It is also a good idea to check the rod with a level. Place the level on top of the shower rod to ensure that the flanges will be even. Some curved shower rods don't need flanges installed, and instead feature extendable "feet" that can be pressed directly against the walls of your shower or bathroom. This is called a tension rod and it is held in place by a spring that pushes the ends of the rod outwards. However, these rods do not stay up as well as shower rods that you mount on the wall. You can use felt pads between the end of the rod and the wall to help them stay put. Consult manufacturer directions for more information. Although it is best to avoid installing your shower rod onto tile at all, a mini hole saw with a 3/16" (4.7 mm) that is designed for tile will allow you to drill through bathroom tile if needed. Line the flange up to the position where you want it, then drill through the holes around its perimeter. Drill slowly at first to avoid having your drill slip on the tile. Once your drill is through the tile, you will need to place an anchor through the tile to prevent it from cracking. If your shower enclosure has acrylic siding, don't drill through it. Instead, drill the mounting holes into the finished wall either above or just outside the shower enclosure. Move the flange away from the wall before tapping the anchors in place. If the plastic anchors don't go all the way in, shave off the part that sticks out using a utility knife so they're flush with the wall. Line the holes of the flanges up with the plastic anchors you drove into the wall, then screw the flange in. You could use a power drill or a regular screwdriver to affix the flanges to the wall. Try to find studs to screw your flanges into. You can use a stud finder to do this. It will make it possible for the shower rod to hold more weight and you will not need to use anchors. Slide the flange covers over the ends of the shower rod. The way in which you fasten the rod to the flanges will vary depending on the manufacturer of the curved shower rod you've selected. In some cases, the ends will just snap into the flanges, while in other cases you'll need to screw the ends of the rod to a bevel attached to the flange. Consult manufacturer directions for more information about how to fasten the curved rod to the flanges.

summary: Center the rod over your tub's edge. Mark the spots where you want to install the flanges. Drill the mounting holes with a mini hole saw meant for tile. Tap the plastic anchors into the holes. Screw the flanges into the wall. Fasten the rod to the flanges.

Summarize the following:
All friends and all friendships are different. A lot of how you're feeling about your friends will be a knee-jerk, gut-decision. If you feel like someone really cares about you, and you feel confident that they're a friend, it's probably because they are. If you even have to wonder, it's probably a sign that they're not. Ask yourself the test questions, even if you're not sure of the answers, and go with your gut: Would your friend pick you up from the airport at midnight, if you needed it? Would your friend sit through a boring Sunday dinner with your grandparents, just to be a good friend and hang out afterwards? Would your friend be able to celebrate with you, if you won something and she didn't? Friends should be around to help hold you up and celebrate the good times with you, and to help get you through the bad times. Anyone who doesn't support you emotionally isn't a friend. Someone is your friend if they: Compliment you sincerely Talk favorably about you to others Seem genuinely excited when you succeed Empathize with you, when you're having a tough time Friendship shouldn't be based on superficial or external things. If someone wants to be your friend because of your car, because of your pool, or because you're the "cool" kid in school, they're not your friend. Friends need to support you for who you are as a person. Someone is your friend if they: Don't pressure you to do things you don't want to do Don't judge you for opening up Don't embarrass you, and aren't embarrassed by you Act the same way around you as around other people Don't make demands of you Friendships aren't all laughs. Good friends are willing to have your best interest in mind, especially if you're the one making the mistake. This can get tricky, because you want friends who will accept you, but also friends who know when you're slipping, and are willing to help you out. Someone is your friend if they: Politely disagree with you Don't attack you personally Have your best interest at heart Know what you want and what you need If your friend always seems distracted when you're together, or like they'd rather be elsewhere, hanging out with other people, that's not a great sign. This can happen to old friends, who you might have known for a long time. But sometimes, something can suddenly change, and the relationship isn't what it once was. Someone is your friend if they: Stay in touch, even if you're both changing Make your friendship a priority Want to hear about the details of your life Remember past conversations you've had Friendships aren't always rosy, but they shouldn't have to feel like work. If you dread the idea of hanging out with someone, or if they seem to resent having to hang out with you, it's probably not a functional friendship anymore. Someone is your friend if they: Are easy to hang out with Make you feel relaxed Don't add to your stress Don't cause "drama" Unless you're being a real jerk, if you mess up, your friends should forgive you when you apologize sincerely. Friends should be willing to look past what might be minor shortcomings and slip-ups, if they really know you and have your best interest at heart. Someone is your friend if they: Accept your apologies Forgive your failures Don't expect you to be someone you're not Don't dig up dirt from the past . If you want to attract good friends, make sure you're being a good friend in turn. It's not enough to expect that all your friends are going to surround you, support you, and listen when you have to talk. If you're not going to bother returning the kindness and the generosity that friendship requires, then go back up through this list and do the same things for your friends that you expect of them. You can then be confident that your friends are real, true, and lasting.
summary: Listen to your gut. Keep friends who support you. Keep friends who accept you for who you are. Keep friends who stand up to you when you're wrong. Keep friends who listen. Keep friends who are pleasurable to be around. Keep friends who are forgiving. Be a good friend
