Several supervisors say they can make either work - and some say technology isn't the main factor in errors. Pat Hollarn, supervisor in Okaloosa County, said her county hasn't had serious problems with optical scanned ballots. Many say avoiding mistakes is more a function of voter education, which supervisors say they plan to do much more of. Kirkman said she took it for granted that most people would know how to fill in an incomplete arrow and do it for only one candidate. One supervisor found an optical scan ballot where a voter tried to punch through their choices as if using a punchcard.
Most people have a very limited understanding of the martial arts.
Exposure to the art form and sport often comes from the creative depiction of cinema and television. A modern martial art form developed in Korea and characterized by its fast, high and spinning kicks teaches more than just techniques in self-defense. A classroom full of students from ages 5 through 55, of various skill levels, sizes and genders, engages in the practice and principles of the martial art at Robert Wright's Tri-County Martial Arts Tae Kwan Do School. Tae Kwan Do has been recognized and applauded for its developmental value, and for its ability to strengthen the mind, body and a person's moral character. Students must be willing to commit to the martial art's basic tenets and philosophies because Tae Kwan Do isn't just a martial art, it's a way of life.
