If you're a person with dyslexia and had assistive technology you will have had at some point a scan pen. In this episode we meet the Founder and CEO of Scanning pens and Empowering Technology Group, Jack Churchill OBE.Jack's story is not unlike most people's stories who have dyslexia. During the school years, Jack felt that dyslexia was holding him back from keeping up with his peers. It was a relief when, at 14 Years Old, Jack got assessed and diagnosed with Dyslexia so that he could access all the support to level the playing field so that he could start to flourish. After losing his first job during the dot.com bubble burst in the late 1990's, Jack and his university friend Toby started what became the Scanning Pen business.After first discovering a basic version of a text to audio pen, Jack instantly saw the benefits of this technology for people with Dyslexia. Today, after a lot of hard work, the technology has developed and there are many varieties of Scanning Pens including pens which have been approved to be used in exams in the UK. Scanning Pens is only a game changer for many people in the UK but it is exported across the world. In 2023, Jack and his business partner were presented with an OBE or ‘services to international trade, and to the dyslexia, and special educational needs and disabilities community'.In this episode you get to hear how Scanning Pens started, how they've developed over the years, the variety of pens which are available, and what the future looks like for Assistive Tech.Key Topics:Struggling with dyslexia at schoolFinding support when diagnosed The beginnings of the Scanning Pen The Development of Scanning Pens andThe future for Scanning Pens-Proudly sponsored by neurobox.

Jack Churchill graduated from the Royal Military Academy in Sandhurst, England, in 1926. He left the army in 1936 to become an editor for a daily newspaper in Kenya. Then he branched off into modelling, and even film acting. Indeed, his mastery of medieval weaponry, especially the sword and the bow-and-arrow, landed him roles in 2 movies: Jack Conway's 1938 comedy “A Yank at Oxford”, and the 1940 adventure film "The Thief of Baghdad".

Winston Churchill is probably one of the most iconic symbols of modern Britain but did you know his mom was American. Jennie Jerome was born into new American money and would start the dollar princess trend where rich American heiress would trade 5th avenue mansions for tiaras. Come learn about the incredible life of the first dollar princess.

In this episode of Extra Rations, Rob talks about John Malcolm Thorpe Fleming Churchill, more commonly known as "Mad Jack". A Scottish officer in the British Army during WWII. Jack was as rough and tough as you would expect any highlander pressed into war would be, but he carried a few things into battle that were considered unorthodox at the time: A bow, a sword, and bagpipes. Yes, there is official documentation of him using all three. email us at trrpod@gmail.com Follow us on twitter! @podcastTRR Follow us on instagram! @trrpod Find us on facebook!

"To Jack, however, it was glorious drama. He stood there, his Macmillan kilt bright against the grey smoke, chin up, fingers working, left elbow rhythmically squeezing the sack, right foot tapping the beat - playing a wild, heathen dance to Vulcan, the Roman fire god.” In his life, John had tragically lost his wife and two of his sons. So by the time he'd come face to face with a couple of young revolutionaries who got their way by executing helpless victims – he kept his cool. In the end there was nothing they could really threaten him with – and that very fact is was kept him calm enough to navigate his way through an international hijacking and hostage situation. But he had also learned something of a part of the world that he had previous not encountered. He learned that his hijackers, too, were victims of pain and loss. And the destruction being wrought upon their lives seemed to have no clear end in sight.  https://www.patreon.com/writteninbloodhistory Further Reading/Principle Sources: King-Clark, R. 1997. Jack Churchill, unlimited boldness.

Es gibt mehr Leute, die ihm Krieg Dudelsack gespielt haben – das ist nichts soooooooooo Besonderes. Nur ein bisschen. Unser stets gut gelaunter Held Jack zeichnet sich also des Weiteren noch dadurch aus, dass er schon vor dem Tomb-Raider-Reboot merkte, wie cool Bogen in bewaffneten Konflikten der Neuzeit immer noch sein können. Ach, und Schwerter. Und unorthodoxe Vorgehensweisen. Aber hört selbst ...

Mad Jack Churchill up in here! De Tweede Wereldoorlog heeft veel heldhaftige en krankzinnige verhalen de wereld ingeslingerd, maar het verhaal van ouwe Jack is uniek. Want hoe vaak zie je iemand met een handboog en een doedelzak op het slagveld rondrennen. Niet zo vaak. Zijn motto was: "Elke soldaat die het gevecht aangaat zonder zwaard is onjuist gekleed." Een man van principes, zoals je hoort.

World War 2 was a brutal period of global history and it contained lots of courageous individuals but perhaps none more so than Mad Jack Churchill, this British soldier would storm beaches with a sword and kill enemy troops with a longbow. Famed for his bagpipes and fearless leadership, Mad Jack would redefine bravery in an era of heroes.

In todays episode of Join Up Dots we look at Motivation and how to keep it, after a recent listener asked "David how do you keep motivated? I have many business failures which i started and then stopped. I just lose the motivation to keep going. Do you have any tips. Well here is what we consider are the best ways to keep yourself motivated, when the motivation is starting to depart. 1: Remind yourself of your goals. Usually before devoting time to any specific endeavor, we tend to make short- and long-term goals. Remember to keep your goals realistic, that way you wont be disheartened if you don't reach them. That doesn't mean you can't push and challenge yourself though, if you don't challenge yourself, then it's not really a goal. If you start to lose sight of your goals, then you may be less motivated than if you were always checking to see how much closer you are getting throughout the whole process. Keeping track of your goals and checking your progress can help keep you motivated day in and day out. 2: Make weekly checkpoints to track your progress. Everyone needs to see how they are keeping up with their goals if they want to stay motivated. If you see that you are on track or even excelling every time you check your progress, you will be motivated and happy that you are getting there. If you see that you are lagging on your goals, it may be the kick start you need to help get you back on track. 3: Make sure to reward yourself every time you achieve your weekly goals. This could be as simple as a bowl of ice cream after a long, hard week of working out or as rewarding as a trip to the spa for all your hard work. Whatever rewards will keep you going are the ones you should be giving yourself. 4: Give yourself breaks. Sometimes even the most determined people get overwhelmed. You may be burning yourself out, and a much-needed break might be just what you need. If it is a fitness goal, maybe take a three- or four-day rest instead of your normal one- or two-day rest. If it is at school, don't try to do all your work in one sitting, but stretch it out over the course of the day or week, if possible. 5: Don't be too hard on yourself. Everyone falls short sometimes. If you fail to meet your goals for the week, take it as a lesson. Try to complete your next target before time, so that you can use the saved time to complete the pending work. This way you stay right on schedule even if you have taken a hit. It's not always about how hard you hit, but how well you can take a hard hit and keep moving on. Don't dwell on failure; just accept it as a human occurrence, and continue working towards your goals. 6:Watch and read motivational stories or speeches. Everyone deserves a great pep talk every once in a while. Stay elevated by watching YouTube videos of inspirational moments so you can suddenly feel a new sense of motivation to keep striving.
