In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: In California, the process for getting a learner's permit, and the waiting period required before you can get your full license, varies based on your age. You can apply for a permit once you reach age 15 . No matter your age, you have to make an appointment at the DMV, pass the written and vision tests, get fingerprinted and photographed, bring proof of identity and residency, and pay an application fee (currently $35 USD). If you're under 18, you also need parental permission and either a valid driver's license or proof that you've completed both driver's education and driver's training courses. If you're under 21, you must also have already completed the California Motorcyclist Safety Program. You'll need to keep the permit for at least 6 months before you can get your full license, if you're under 18. Otherwise, there is no minimum waiting period. If you want to get your license before you turn 21, you are required by law to complete a motorcycle training course that's been approved by the California Highway Patrol. Make sure you get a Certificate of Completion (form DL389) when you pass the course. These courses are privately operated, but make sure they have been CHP-approved. Passing this course means you don't have to take a road test at the DMV. This is true if you're over 21 years of age as well. This is the only scenario in which you are required to make an appointment with the DMV and take a road test at the facility. No matter your age, you can skip this hassle by completing an approved training course and getting completion form DL389. Contact your local DMV branch to book a road test appointment and determine what documents to bring and the fees involved. You'll have to bring a street-legal, licensed, insured motorcycle for the test. If you have a valid learner's permit, have waited the required 6 months (if under 18), and have passed either an approved training course or the DMV road test, you're ready to get your full license. Make an appointment at the DMV office and bring the following: Your valid permit Your training course completion form (DL389) or the certificate of completion for your DMV-administered road test A California driver's license or other valid, acceptable identity document Proof of residency (only under certain circumstances; ask the DMV) Your Social Security number
Summary: Get your motorcycle learner's permit. Complete a state-approved training course, especially if under age 21. Take a road test at the DMV only if you're 21+ and didn't take a training course. Bring the required documents to your DMV appointment to get your license.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If you have a choice between various routes, go for the one with the least number of stops - stopping and starting again from a dead stop is very expensive in terms of gas. If you have multiple stops in one trip, plan it so that you go to your furthest destination first and make the rest of your stops on your way back. By taking your longest drive at the beginning, you give the car enough time to warm up for the remainder of the trip; if you took the short trips first, your car would take longer to warm up (because of the brevity of each trip). Since engines do not operate efficiently until they are warm, taking your longest drive first increases fuel efficiency. Country roads are good because you don't have to stop (and go) as much and you don't have to accelerate/brake to get on/off (like with the highway). Steep uphills or downhills will have impacts on your fuel economy as well. If you're driving on sloped roads, it's useful to think about where you should come to a full stop, because that will affect how hard you need to accelerate. Instead of searching for the perfect spot close to an entrance (which will involve stop-and-go driving, especially with pedestrians involved and other drivers pulling in or out of their spots) pull into a spot that's further away from the entrance. Look for the parking spot with the highest elevation and park face-out so that when you start the car and the engine is cold (at the lowest efficiency) you can use gravity in your favor without having to spin your car around.
Summary: Plan your route for fuel efficiency. Park for easy departure.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You can find a number of pre-made building plans online, showing you exactly how to make all sorts of different buildings yourself. This is great for beginners, who haven't gotten used to the materials available to them yet. Minecraft Building Inc is one great example. There are a couple of sites on the net that will let you create your own building plans, drawing out exactly what materials should go where. The most common site for this is MineDraft. There are loads of videos on YouTube that show you how to build cool houses and other fun structures. Spend some time exploring and getting ideas for what other people have made.
Summary:
Use building plans. Use drafting tools. Watch YouTube videos.
