Sisson\n\nFROM: Office of Inspector General/Pakistan Director, Joseph Farinella /s/\n\nSUBJECT: Audit of USAID/Pakistan\xe2\x80\x99s Pre-Service Teacher Education Program\n (Report No. G-391-12-004-P)\n\nThis memorandum transmits our final report on the subject audit. In finalizing the report, we\ncarefully considered USAID/Pakistan\xe2\x80\x99s comments on the draft report and have included those\ncomments in Appendix II.\n\nThe report contains two recommendations to help the mission improve various aspects of the\nprogram. USAID/Pakistan officials agreed with the two recommendations. On the basis of the\ninformation provided by the mission in response to the draft report, we determined that\nmanagement decisions have been reached on the recommendations. The Audit Performance\nand Compliance Division will determine whether final action has been achieved once the\nmission completes planned corrective actions on the recommendations.\n\nThank you for the cooperation and courtesy extended to the audit team during this audit.\n\n\n\n\nU.S. Agency for International Development\nAmerican Embassy, Diplomatic Enclave\nRamna 5, Islamabad, Pakistan\nwww.usaid.gov/oig\n\x0cCONTENTS\nSummary of Results ................................................................................................................. 1\n\nAudit Findings ........................................................................................................................... 3\n\n Certain Targets Were Not Met ............................................................................................... 3\n\n Performance Management Plans Did Not Comply With Agency Requirements ..................... 4\n\nEvaluation of Management Comments.................................................................................... 7\n\nAppendix I\xe2\x80\x94Scope and Methodology ..................................................................................... 8\n\nAppendix II\xe2\x80\x94Management Comments .................................................................................. 10\n\nAppendix III\xe2\x80\x94 Academy for Educational Development Program Indicators,\nTargets, and Results ............................................................................................................... 12\n\nAppendix IV\xe2\x80\x94 Education Development Center Program Indicators,\nTargets, and Results ............................................................................................................... 13\n\n\n\n\nAbbreviations\n\nThe following abbreviations appear in this report:\n\nADE associate degree in education\nADS Automated Directives System\nAED Academy for Educational Development\nAOR agreement officer\xe2\x80\x99s representative\nB.Ed. bachelor of education\nEDC Education Development Center Inc.\nFY fiscal year\nPMP performance management plan\nPre-STEP Pre-Service Teacher Education Program\nUSG U.S. Government\n\x0cSUMMARY OF RESULTS\nTo improve teacher education in Pakistan, in September 2008 USAID/Pakistan awarded a\ncooperative agreement to Academy for Educational Development (AED) to implement the Pre-\nService Teacher Education Program (Pre-STEP). Pre-STEP is managed by the\nUSAID/Pakistan Office of Education. In April 2011, USAID/Pakistan canceled AED\xe2\x80\x99s\ncooperative agreement based on the Government of Pakistan\xe2\x80\x99s decision to terminate its\nmemorandum of understanding with AED. To continue implementing Pre-STEP, in April 2011,\nUSAID/Pakistan awarded a cooperative agreement to Education Development Center Inc.\n(EDC). As of December 31, 2011, USAID/Pakistan had obligated $17 million and spent $4.3\nmillion on this agreement. Total Pre-STEP obligations were $37 million, and expenditures were\n$22 million through December 2011. Award details appear in Table 1.\n\n Table 1. Audited Activities\n Expenditures\n Award\n Agreement as of\n Partner Award Type Amount\n Period December 31, 2011\n ($ million)\n ($ million)\n Cooperative\n AED 9/30/2008-4/4/2011 75 17.7\n agreement\n Cooperative\n EDC 4/5/2011-10/4/2013 40 4.3\n agreement\n\n\nPre-STEP focuses on developing standards for teacher education across all provinces and the\nFederally Administered Tribal Areas of Pakistan in collaboration with the Higher Education\nCommission and the Ministry of Education. The program\xe2\x80\x99s overall goal is to improve the quality\nof basic education through improved teacher education.\n\nIn collaboration with the Government of Pakistan, Pre-STEP plans to improve teacher education\nin three priority areas:\n\n1. Improve national human resource policies by incorporating recruitment, certification,\n licensing, promotion, and salary revisions.\n\n2. Develop teacher standards and new programs that replace existing Primary Teacher\n Certificate requirements. Upgrade existing 1-year and 4-year basic education curricula,\n purchase training and reference materials for teaching institutions, provide international\n technical assistance, and offer academic scholarships and research grants.\n\n3. Develop, implement, and upgrade curricula in higher education institutions for current and\n new teachers at the national level.\n\nThe objective of this audit was to determine whether Pre-STEP is achieving its main goal of\nimproving the quality of basic education through improved teacher education.\n\nIn its first 3 years, the program made progress toward achieving improved teacher education by\ndeveloping and helping the Pakistani Government implement education policy reforms. The\nHigher Education Commission approved two new education degree programs based in part on\n\n\n\n 1\n\x0cPre-STEP recommendations. The new degree programs and curricula are for a 2-year\nassociate degree in education (ADE) and a 4-year bachelor of education degree (B.Ed.). These\nprograms, introduced with USAID\xe2\x80\x99s support, should ultimately affect teacher training colleges\nand universities throughout Pakistan and help improve the overall quality of education.\n\nIn part because of Pre-STEP\xe2\x80\x99s efforts, 16 Pakistan teaching institutions have adopted the new\ndegree programs. Pre-STEP plans to increase the number of colleges and universities offering\nthe new degrees over the next 2 years by supporting their implementation at target colleges and\nuniversities and expanding the number of students enrolled in the new degree programs.\n\nDespite progress in developing and implementing policy reforms at the provincial and national\nlevels, the program did not meet targets for 12 of 19 indicators. Some targets could not be met\nbecause the activities to be quantified (outputs), such as student scholarships and grants\nawarded, were postponed. Other program outputs, such as renovations at college and\nuniversity facilities and the number of teachers enrolled in the new curricula, fell short of targets,\nas detailed in Appendix III.\n\nA major contributing factor to these shortfalls occurred in the third year of the program, when the\nmission terminated its agreement with AED and awarded a new agreement to EDC. The new\nimplementing organization required time to expand operations in Pakistan. During fiscal year\n(FY) 2011, EDC developed a new performance management plan (PMP) and listed targets for\nfour program indicators for the period April through September 2011 (shown in Appendix IV).\n\nAlthough the program has made progress, the audit identified two areas for improvement:\n\n Certain targets were not met (page 3). The program did not meet targets for 12 of 19\n indicators. Although the current budget reflects a desire to achieve the unmet targets, the\n rate of spending during the first 3 years of implementation suggests that the budget and the\n goals may need adjustment.\n\n Performance management plans did not comply with Agency requirements (page 4). Plans\n submitted by both implementers were late and lacked several elements, and the mission\n had not given final approval to the EDC plan.\n\nThe report recommends that USAID/Pakistan:\n\n1. Review program progress to date in line with expenditures and timelines to achieve the\n desired results for the remainder of the agreement, document the results of the review, and\n make adjustments to the program if necessary (page 4).\n\n2. Update and finalize the program\xe2\x80\x99s performance management plan to ensure it is complete\n and meets Agency requirements (page 6).\n\nDetailed findings follow. Appendix I presents the audit scope and methodology, and\nUSAID/Pakistan\xe2\x80\x99s comments appear in Appendix II. Our evaluation of management comments\nis on page 7 of the report.\n\n\n\n\n 2\n\x0cAUDIT FINDINGS\nCertain Targets Were Not Met\nUSAID uses performance indicators to compare actual results with expected results and\ndetermine whether programs are progressing toward their objectives. Agency guidance,\nincluding Automated Directives System (ADS) Section 203.3.4.5, requires setting performance\ntargets for each performance indicator that are ambitious but can be achieved. Performance\ntargets are specific planned levels of results to be achieved within an explicit time frame and\nmay be set for the end of the agreement period or for each year of the program.\n\nPre-STEP made progress toward some established targets during the first 3 years. According\nto AED\xe2\x80\x99s final report, the following are key achievements:\n\n1. Submitted amended policies related to the new degree programs to six provincial and area\n governments.\n\n2. Determined future human resource needs for the number of teachers required at education\n institutes in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province.\n\n3. Launched the new degrees and curricula at 16 government-run higher education institutions.\n\n4. Provided Ph.D. scholarships to eight faculty members.\n\n5. Made reforms in the certification and promotion practices for elementary school teachers.\n\nHowever, the audit found that the program did not meet targets for 12 of 19 indicators. For\nexample, USAID funded 410 of 2,297 planned scholarships to students enrolled in the new\nteaching curriculum and distributed 10 of 36 planned research grants with an average value of\n$9,000 to teaching institutions in FY 2011. Indicators, targets, and results are shown in\nAppendix III.\n\nProgram shortfalls occurred for several reasons, some within the mission\xe2\x80\x99s control and some\nnot:\n\n The mission\xe2\x80\x99s technical office had many competing priorities and lacked time to provide\n adequate oversight. During the period under review, the mission assigned one agreement\n officer\xe2\x80\x99s representative (AOR) to manage Pre-STEP\xe2\x80\x99s $75 million cooperative agreement.\n This AOR was assigned to manage three other projects whose average budget was\n $9 million. This situation contributed to not achieving planned program targets.\n\n The program got off to a slow start in its first 2 years of implementation. According to\n mission officials, key personnel hired to manage the program did not have the necessary\n management skills. As a result, the mission requested that AED change the chief of party in\n 2009. AED also had an unexpected change with a significant partner in the second year of\n the award, causing further delays.\n\n\n\n\n 3\n\x0c In March 2011, USAID/Pakistan canceled AED\xe2\x80\x99s cooperative agreement based on the\n Government of Pakistan\xe2\x80\x99s decision not to work with AED anymore. To continue\n implementing Pre-STEP, in April 2011, USAID/Pakistan awarded a new agreement to EDC.\n Even though the mission awarded the new Pre-STEP cooperative agreement the day after\n terminating the AED agreement, the new implementing partner, EDC, needed time to hire\n additional staff, find new office space, develop work plans, and establish internal controls.\n\nOne result of the transition from AED to EDC was the postponement of some aspects of the\nprogram. Because the new implementing organization required time to expand its operations,\nthe mission worked with EDC to develop a new PMP with only 4 of 19 program indicators for the\nperiod April through September 2011. EDC met the established targets for three indicators;\ninformation was not available on the fourth (shown in Appendix IV).\n\nThe transition from AED to EDC gave the mission an opportunity to review spending up to that\npoint (shown in Table 2) and determine whether projected expenditures were in line with\ntimelines for achieving desired results in the time remaining.\n\n Table 2. Spending Through December 2011\n Rounded Rate\n Number of Amount Spent\n Implementer ($000,000 per\n Months ($ million)\n Month)\n AED 30 17.7 600,000\n EDC 9 4.3 500,000\n\nAs the table makes clear, the monthly rate of spending through December 2011 was far below\nthe approximately $2.6 million per month referenced in the budget that USAID/Pakistan\nprepared.\n\nGiven this rate of expenditures, the current budget could surpass the implementing partner\xe2\x80\x99s\nability to spend funds efficiently and effectively and provide adequate oversight. Therefore, we\nmake the following recommendation.\n\n Recommendation 1. We recommend that USAID/Pakistan review program progress to\n date in line with expenditures and timelines to achieve the desired results for the\n remainder of the agreement, document the results of the review, and make adjustments\n to the program if necessary.\n\nPerformance Management Plans Did\nNot Comply With Agency Requirements\n\nAccording to ADS 203.3, performance management is the systematic process of monitoring the\nachievements of program operations; collecting and analyzing performance information to track\nprogress toward planned results; using performance information and evaluations to influence\ndecision making and resource allocation; and communicating results. The mission uses a PMP\nto measure progress toward the results identified in the planning stage. ADS 203.3.3 also\nstates that once an award is executed, the project staff must complete a PMP, with relevant\nindicators and baseline data, within the first few months and before major project\nimplementation actions get under way.\n\n\n\n 4\n\x0cIn addition, ADS 203.3.3.5 requires that a PMP include specific monitoring elements: (a) a\nschedule for data collection and baseline values and targets for each indicator, (b) a description of\nthe source of the data and the method for data collection, (c) performance indicators\ndisaggregated by gender, (d) a description of known data limitations for each indicator, (e) a\ndescription of data quality assessment procedures, (f) the estimated cost of collecting, analyzing,\nand reporting performance data, (g) a calendar of performance management tasks, and (h)\nidentification of possible evaluation efforts. Furthermore, ADS 203.3.4.6 instructs missions to\nupdate PMPs regularly with new performance information as projects develop and evolve.\n\nContrary to ADS guidance and agreement deliverables, AED did not develop and maintain a\nPMP that complied with Agency requirements. For example, the PMP lacked the following\nmonitoring requirements:\n\n Performance results disaggregated by gender\n\n A description of known data limitations of each performance indicator\n\n A description of data quality assessment procedures\n\n The estimated cost of collecting, analyzing, and reporting performance data\n\n A calendar of performance management tasks that the mission will conduct over the life of\n the project\n\n The identification of possible evaluation efforts that complement performance monitoring\n efforts\n\nIn addition, AED did not submit a final PMP until 17 months after the agreement was signed.\nAccording to the mission, the delay occurred in part because AED management had difficulty\ninterpreting and complying with Agency directives. Because of the stalled PMP process and\nother matters\xe2\x80\x94including troubles with reporting, coordination, and keeping activities on\nschedule\xe2\x80\x94AED\xe2\x80\x99s chief of party was replaced. Soon after, the mission finalized and approved\nthe PMP even though it did not fully comply with ADS guidelines.\n\nThe follow-on implementer, EDC, submitted a PMP to USAID/Pakistan on November 22, 2011,\n2.5 months after it was due. USAID/Pakistan gave interim approval of the PMP, subject to\nmission modifications.\n\nThis interim PMP lacked several key elements, such as:\n\n Performance results disaggregated by gender\n The estimated cost of collecting, analyzing, and reporting performance data\n\nThe interim approved PMP was 2.5 months late because EDC was tasked with absorbing an\nexisting agreement in a short period of time. Hiring personnel and securing office space also\ncontributed to the delay in developing the PMP.\n\n\n\n\n 5\n\x0cWithout a final PMP, the implementing partner may not have a clear understanding of data\ncollection procedures, program targets, and monitoring requirements. A final PMP including all\nrequired elements is needed. Therefore, we make the following recommendation.\n\n Recommendation 2. We recommend that USAID/Pakistan update and finalize the\n program\xe2\x80\x99s performance management plan to ensure it is complete and meets Agency\n requirements.\n\n\n\n\n 6\n\x0cEVALUATION OF MANAGEMENT\nCOMMENTS\nUSAID/Pakistan agreed with the findings and two recommendations in the report. Concerning\nthe report\xe2\x80\x99s finding that certain targets were not met, the mission stated that OIG may not have\nfully accounted for USAID\xe2\x80\x99s efforts to ensure that program activities continued without delay\nafter the transition from AED to EDC. OIG fully recognizes delays caused by the termination of\nAED\xe2\x80\x99s cooperative agreement on pages 2 and 4 of the report. The mission also noted that a\nprimary program objective is policy reform and that the target in this area was exceeded within\nthe first 3 years. Again, OIG recognizes that policy reform is a major aspect of the program on\npages 1 and 2 of the report, and the results achieved are shown in Appendix III\xe2\x80\x94performance\nindicators 1 and 2.\n\nBased on our evaluation of USAID/Pakistan\xe2\x80\x99s management comments, management decisions\nhave been reached on the recommendations.\n\nRecommendation 1. We recommend that USAID/Pakistan review program progress to date in\nline with expenditures and timelines to achieve the desired results for the remainder of the\nagreement, document the results of the review, and make adjustments to the program if\nnecessary.\n\nUSAID/Pakistan agreed and reported that it is working with EDC to reprogram, within the\nparameters of the scope of work, for a more effective and efficient use of funds. The mission\nexpected to complete the reprogramming exercise by April 30, 2012. Accordingly, a\nmanagement decision has been reached on this recommendation.\n\nRecommendation 2. We recommend that USAID/Pakistan update and finalize the program\xe2\x80\x99s\nperformance management plan to ensure it is complete and meets Agency requirements.\n\nUSAID/Pakistan agreed and indicated that it plans to work with EDC to finalize the performance\nmanagement plan by April 30, 2012. Accordingly, a management decision has been reached\non this recommendation.\n\nThe Audit Performance and Compliance Division will make a determination of final action on\ncompletion of the planned corrective actions for the two recommendations. The mission\xe2\x80\x99s\nwritten comments on the draft report are included in their entirety as Appendix II.\n\n\n\n\n 7\n\x0c Appendix I\n\n\n\nSCOPE AND METHODOLOGY\nScope\nWe conducted this performance audit in accordance with generally accepted government\nauditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain\nsufficient, appropriate evidence to provide a reasonable basis for our findings and conclusions\nin accordance with our audit objective. We believe that the evidence obtained provides that\nreasonable basis.\n\nThe purpose of this audit was to determine whether Pre-STEP is achieving its main goal of\nimproving the quality of basic education in Pakistan through improved teacher education. As of\nDecember 31, 2011, cumulative obligations and expenditures under Pre-STEP totaled\napproximately $37 million and $22 million, respectively. The audit team reviewed performance\ninformation for October 2008 through December 2011 and evaluated the major activities\nimplemented under the program.\n\nIn planning and performing the audit, the audit team reviewed the control environment at the\nmission. We examined the mission\xe2\x80\x99s FY 2011 self-assessment of management controls, which\nthe mission is required to perform to comply with the Federal Managers\xe2\x80\x99 Financial Integrity Act\nof 1982, to check whether the assessment cited any relevant weaknesses. We also reviewed\napplicable USAID policies and procedures pertaining to USAID/Pakistan\xe2\x80\x99s program including\nADS Chapters 201, 203, and 216.\n\nThe audit team assessed relevant internal controls used by the mission to manage the program.\nThese controls included maintaining regular contact with the implementer, approving key\npersonnel decisions, performing site visits, assessing reported results, and reviewing project\nfiles and program reports. The audit team also reviewed the control environment at the\nimplementing partner, including a review of the procurement, security, and accounting functions\nand the reporting of programmatic results.\n\nThe audit team performed fieldwork at the USAID/Pakistan mission, EDC\xe2\x80\x99s main program office\nin Islamabad, the provincial office in Karachi, and select higher education institutions in Pakistan\nfrom September 20, 2011, through January 25, 2012.\n\nMethodology\nTo answer the audit objective, we reviewed mission documentation used to manage and\nmonitor the program: country operational plans, performance management plans, implementing\npartner agreements, performance measures, actual performance results, financial reports, and\nsite visit reports. We also interviewed mission officials; staff at the current implementing partner;\nand program recipients including students, scholarship recipients, professors, and university\nadministrators. We also compared plan targets with reported results.\n\nThe audit evaluated whether the indicators used by the program are sufficiently results-oriented\nto permit their use in answering the audit objective. Through discussions with USAID/Pakistan\nofficials and implementing partners, the auditors gained an understanding of (1) how the\n\n\n\n\n 8\n\x0c Appendix I\n\n\nindicators are defined and computed, (2) the data sources utilized, and (3) the flow of data from\nthe implementing partner\xe2\x80\x99s performance reports to its inclusion in quarterly and annual reports.\n\nIn assessing the status of the activities carried out during the program\xe2\x80\x99s first, second, and third\nyears of operation, the auditors relied primarily on the implementer\xe2\x80\x99s quarterly progress reports\nfrom September 2008 through September 2011, supplemented by interviews conducted with\nUSAID/Pakistan and implementing partner staff regarding implementation problems reflected in\nthese reports. The audit team also reviewed the following sources of evidence: internal control\ndocuments, prior audits, and cooperative agreements.\n\nTo validate the results reported under the program, the auditors checked key reported results\nagainst supporting data maintained by the implementer. To test the accuracy of the data in this\ndatabase and verify the number of reported beneficiaries, the auditors checked the data against\nsupporting documentation. Similar but more limited testing was performed for certain other\nactivities, such as scholarships and training.\n\n\n\n\n 9\n\x0c Appendix II\n\n\n\nMANAGEMENT COMMENTS\n\n\nMEMORANDUM\n\nDate: March 5, 2012\n\nTo: Joseph Farinella\n Director OIG/Pakistan\n\nFrom: Andrew Sisson /s/\n Mission Director\n\nSubject: Management Comments on the Audit of USAID/Pakistan\xe2\x80\x99s Pre-Service Teacher\n Education Program (Pre-STEP)\n\nReference: Draft Report No. G-391-12-00X-P dated February 13, 2012\n\nThank you for providing the mission with the opportunity to review the subject draft audit report.\nMission management appreciates the collegial manner in which the Office of Inspector General\nconducted the audit. The audit was instructive and timely as the Mission is in the process of\nscaling up the current program after the transition of implementers from Academy for\nEducational Development to Education Development Center. The Mission is using lessons\nlearned from the first project, as well as participation in the audit process, to inform improved\nimplementation and monitoring processes in the second project. Please find below our\nmanagement comments on the recommendations included in the referenced audit report.\n\nRecommendation No. 1: We recommend that USAID/Pakistan review program progress\nto date in line with expenditures and timelines to achieve the desired results for the\nremainder of the agreement, document the results of the review, and make adjustments\nto the program if necessary.\n\nManagement Comments:\nMission management concurs with the recommendation. Mission is already monitoring the\nspend rate and program implementation pace through quarterly pipeline reviews. As a result of\nthe pipeline review for the quarter ended October 2011, the Education Office through the Office\nof Acquisition and Assistance is working with the implementer, Education Development Center,\nto reprogram, within the parameters of the scope of work, for a more effective and efficient use\nof funds. The reprogramming exercise will be finalized by April 30, 2012. The Mission will\ncontinue close monitoring of program implementation through field visits, meetings with the\nimplementer, regular pipeline reviews and quarterly progress reports.\n\nThe draft audit report references the delay in meeting certain targets such as the number of\nstudent scholarships and grants. In this regard, the Mission would like to note that the audit may\nnot have fully accounted for USAID/Pakistan\xe2\x80\x99s efforts to ensure that program activities continue\n\n\n 10\n\x0c Appendix II\n\n\nwithout delay when the Government of Pakistan terminated its memorandum of understanding\nwith the Academy for Educational Development. This Government of Pakistan\xe2\x80\x99s decision\nresulted in delay of several activities and slight changes in the program direction. In addition, all\nUSAID/Pakistan programs are implemented in a complex environment where the host\ngovernment has very limited capacity. For example, it took extra time for the program team to\nbuild capacity of public universities to write research proposals, before such proposals could be\naccepted for consideration.\n\nMore importantly, one of the Mission\xe2\x80\x99s primary objectives in Pakistan is to support Government\nof Pakistan institutions to develop and to implement policy reform for better service delivery; in\nthe case of this program, the objective was to raise the quality of basic education in Pakistan\nthrough better prepared teachers. During the first three-years, the program exceeded its target\nconsiderably in the area of policy reform. The program target for these reforms was four; the\nprogram achieved 13 separate policy reforms. These reforms enabled the launch of new\nprofessional degree programs for teachers: a two-year Associate\xe2\x80\x99s Degree in Education (ADE);\nand a four-year Bachelor\xe2\x80\x99s of Education (B.Ed.) degree. In addition, this program also\ncontributed positively to the introduction of significant reforms at the provincial level that make\nteacher recruitment and promotion better rationalized.\n\nRecommendation No. 2: We recommend that USAID/Pakistan update and finalize the\nprogram\xe2\x80\x99s performance management plan to ensure it is complete and meets agency\nrequirements.\n\nManagement comment:\nMission management concurs with the recommendation. The Education Office has been\nworking with Education Development Center to revise the interim Performance Management\nPlan (PMP) for the Pre-Service Teacher Education Program in line with ADS 203 guidelines.\nThe revised PMP will include targets disaggregated by gender and region. The document will be\nfinalized by April 30, 2012.\n\n\n\n\n 11\n\x0c Appendix III\n\n\n Academy for Educational Development Program Indicators, Targets, and Results\n September 30, 2008 \xe2\x80\x93 April 4, 2011 (Audited)\n\n FY Targets FY Results\nNo. Performance Indicator\n 2009 - 2011 2009 - 2011\n1 Does your program support education system/policy reform?

Michel Ney (Saarlouis, 1769. január 10. – Párizs, 1815. december 7.) francia marsall a napóleoni háborúk idején.
 Élete és pályafutása
 1769. január 10-én született a Saar-vidéken, Saarlouis városában, egy elfranciásodott bognár fiaként. A kalandvágyó Ney irtózott attól, hogy apja nyomdokaiba lépjen, ezért tizennyolc évesen megszökött otthonról és felcsapott huszárnak. A forradalom kitörése után katonai tehetsége és bátorsága révén gyorsan emelkedett a ranglétrán, 1792-ben már hadnagy, 1794-ben egy osztrák tábornok elfogása után százados, az év végén pedig már ezredes volt. 1796-ban a német hadjárat alatt, huszonhét évesen tábornoki rangot viselt, 1798-ban alig százötven emberrel foglalta el Mannheim városát. Emberei bálványozták, mert jóban-rosszban osztozott velük, harcban pedig mindig első volt. Ekkoriban ragadt rá a „vörös fejű” jelző, ami nem csak hajszínére, de vérmérsékletére is utalt.
 Napóleon 1799. brumaire 18-i államcsínye a rajnai hadsereg parancsnokaként érte. A velejéig republikánus Ney fenntartásokkal ugyan, de felesküdött a konzulátusra. Az év decemberében Hohenlindennél személyesen vezette azt a lovasrohamot, amely nem csak az ütközetet döntötte el, hanem tízezer foglyot ejtett és száz ágyút zsákmányolt, megsemmisítve az osztrák hadsereg centrumát. Az első konzul megkedvelte és pártfogásába vette: 1802-ben svájci nagykövetté nevezte ki és felesége, Joséphine lányának egy barátnőjét adta hozzá. Neynek nem csak helyzete, politikai nézete is megváltozott: Napóleon személyisége tökéletesen rabul ejtette, s amilyen heves republikánus volt korábban, annyira lelkes csodálója lett a konzulnak. 1803 végén a hadsereg nevében ő kérte Napóleont, hogy nyilvánítsa magát császárnak.
 Kérése meghallgatásra talált, az új uralkodó pedig 1804-ben a még mindig csak harmincöt éves katonát Franciaország tizennyolc marsallja közé emelte. Napóleon tisztában volt azzal, hogy a marsallnak nincs párja a rohamban, de a hadvezetésben járatlan, ezért mindig közvetlen irányítása alatt tartotta. Ney 1805-ben személyesen vezette az elchingeni csatában a döntő támadást a hídon, ezért kapta az Elchingen hercege rangot. Jelentős része volt a jénai és eylaui csatában, 1810-1811-ben Portugáliában és Spanyolországban hadakozott. 1812-ben az Oroszország elleni hadjárat során is megtette, amit lehetett: Osztrovnónál megverte az orosz csapatokat, majd oroszlánrészt vállalt Szmolenszk elfoglalásában. Itt meg is sebesült, golyót kapott a nyakába, de még így is ő állt a borogyinói csatában a francia lovasroham élére. Az orosz főváros elfoglalása után Napóleontól megkapta a Moszkva hercege címet, de újdonsült birtokát nem sokáig élvezhette. Amikor az oroszok halogató taktikája és az időjárás távozásra késztette a sereget, a császár az utóvéd élére állította. Ney fedezte a főerő egyre inkább menekülésre emlékeztető visszavonulását, az ellenséges támadások közepette személyes példájával tartotta az éhező és fázó katonákban a lelket. A kezdeti tízezerből alig háromezerrel érte utol a Berezina folyónál a Grande Armée maradványait, és utolsóként kelt át a hídon, ezért is nevezte őt Napóleon „a bátrak bátrának”.
 Az oroszországi emlékek súlyosan megviselték Neyt, hisz rengeteg katonáját látta a fagyban betegség és éhség közepette elpusztulni. Ezután már Ney nem volt a régi. Az egykor energikus katona fáradékonnyá, késlekedővé vált és fogékony lett az idegességre, dühkitörésre.
 1813-ban a lipcsei csatában megsebesült, majd 1814-ben már
 francia földön volt részese a kevés győzelemnek és a számos vereségnek. Párizs eleste után a marsallok nevében ő szólította fel az ország üdve és a hadsereg megmaradása érdekében Napóleont a lemondásra. Az ismét trónra került Bourbonok ezért meghagyták rangját, sőt főnemesi rangra emelték, ám az udvarban számtalan megaláztatást kellett elszenvednie alacsony származása miatt. A sértett Ney Napóleon visszatérésekor ugyan megígérte, hogy „acélketrecben” viszi a bitorlót Párizsba, a közhangulatot érzékelve azonban inkább újra felajánlotta kardját és szolgálatait a császárnak. Végzetes következményekkel: késlekedése és tehetetlenkedése romba döntötte Bonaparte stratégiáját, nem tudta megelőzni Wellington erőinek konszolidálását. Mivel Ney idegállapota 1812 óta megváltozott így nagyon valószínű, hogy meggondolatlan és katasztrófával végződő lépéseit is emiatt követte el. S bár bátorsága megmaradt, de hadvezetési járatlanságával párosuló mentálhigiéniás problémái egyenes úton vezettek a katasztrófához. A waterlooi csatában oroszlánként küzdött, az egyik hiábavaló lovasrohamot a másik után vezette az angol gyalogsági négyszögek ellen. Amikor minden elveszett, egy csapat katonát gyűjtött maga köré és azt kiáltotta: „Gyertek és lássátok, hogyan hal meg Franciaország marsallja!”
 A hangzatos szavak ellenére túlélte az ütközetet, menekülés közben Napóleontól nászajándékba kapott kardjáról felismerték és elfogták. Ney ügyét előbb katonai bíróság elé utalták, de annak tagjai – volt marsallok, akik a vádlotthoz hasonlóan viselkedtek maguk is – illetéktelennek nyilvánították magukat. Az ügy a felsőház elé került, ahol kimondták a halálbüntetést – ővele statuáltak példát, Napóleon többi marsallja kegyelmet kapott.
 Ney a halálos ítélet felsorolásakor félbeszakította címeinek hosszas felsorolását „Michel Ney és hamarosan egy marék por” felkiáltással. A kivégzésre 1815. december 7-én a szokásoktól eltérően nem a nyilvánosság előtt került sor, hogy elkerüljék a valószínű zavargásokat. Az utolsó pillanatáig eszelősen bátor Ney nem engedte bekötni a szemét, sőt ő vezényelt tüzet a kivégzőosztagnak. Utolsó szavai: „Franciaország katonái! Íme az utolsó parancsom hozzátok: tűz!” Tizenegy lövést kapott: hatot a mellkasába, hármat a fejébe, egyet a nyakába, egyet a jobb karjába. Az osztag egy tagja a feje felett a falba lőtt.
 Máig tartja magát a legenda, hogy a kivégzést csak megrendezték, Neynek sikerült Amerikába szöknie – ez persze nem igaz, de valódi leszármazottai közül az egyik valóban a washingtoni képviselőház tagja.

Ο Ιωάννης (Τζον) Γ. Θεοτόκης (5 Σεπτεμβρίου 1880 – 6 Ιουνίου 1961) ήταν Έλληνας πολιτικός, ο οποίος διετέλεσε και πρωθυπουργός της χώρας στις αρχές του 1950.
 Βιογραφία
 Ο Ιωάννης Θεοτόκης γεννήθηκε στην Κέρκυρα και ανήκε στην ιστορική οικογένεια Θεοτόκη, στον κλάδο Daviazzo ή Πολιτικών. Ήταν γιος του παλαίμαχου Κερκυραίου πολιτικού και πρωθυπουργού της χώρας Γεωργίου Θεοτόκη και της Αμαλίας Δήμα. Ήταν επίσης αδελφός του πολιτικού Νικολάου Θεοτόκη, ο οποίος εκτελέσθηκε το 1922 για τον ρόλο του στην Μικρασιατική Καταστροφή, και αδελφός της Ζαΐρας Θεοτόκη, μητέρας του Γεωργίου Ράλλη.
 Έζησε τα παιδικά και μαθητικά χρόνια του στην Κέρκυρα και στη συνέχεια σπούδασε γεωπόνος στην Αυστρία, φοιτώντας στο Universität für Bodenkultur της Βιέννης. Επιστρέφοντας στην Ελλάδα εργάστηκε στη Θεσσαλία, επιχειρώντας να εφαρμόσει τις γεωπονικές γνώσεις του με στόχο την αναζωογόνηση και βελτίωση του θεσσαλικού κάμπου. Όταν κηρύχθηκε ο Α ́ Βαλκανικός Πόλεμος το 1912 κατατάχθηκε στον στρατό ως εθελοντής, πολεμώντας ως τον Οκτώβριο του 1914, οπότε επέστρεψε από το μέτωπο στην Αθήνα.
 Στα τέλη του 1914 ο Ι. Θεοτόκης ανέλαβε καθήκοντα ως αυλικός της Βασίλισσας Σοφίας. Το 1917, μετά την επικράτηση του δημοκρατικού κινήματος της Θεσσαλονίκης, ακολούθησε τη βασιλική οικογένεια στην εξορία στην Ελβετία.
 Η ενεργός ανάμειξη του Θεοτόκη στην πολιτική, ακολουθώντας την οικογενειακή παράδοση, ξεκίνησε το 1920, οπότε παραιτήθηκε από αυλάρχης, συμμετείχε στις εθνικές εκλογές με το Λαϊκό Κόμμα και εξελέγη για πρώτη φορά βουλευτής Κέρκυρας.
 Εκλέχθηκε συνολικά επτά φορές βουλευτής στην εθνική αντιπροσωπεία κατά τις εκλογικές αναμετρήσεις των ετών 1926, 1932, 1933, 1935, 1936 και 1946. Δεν κατόρθωσε να εκλεγεί μόνο το 1928, αναμέτρηση κατά την οποία το Λαϊκό Κόμμα δεν ανέδειξε κανέναν Κερκυραίο βουλευτή.
 Το 1932 ανέλαβε για πρώτη φορά το Υπουργείο Γεωργίας επί πρωθυπουργίας Παναγή Τσαλδάρη. Στον έναν χρόνο της θητείας του επιχείρησε να εφαρμόσει στον γεωργικό τομέα τις καινοτόμες ιδέες που είχε ήδη μελετήσει. Τον Ιούλιο του 1935 παραιτήθηκε από το συγκεκριμένο υπουργείο καθώς διαφώνησε με τον Παναγή Τσαλδάρη πάνω στο πολιτειακό ζήτημα. Ο Θεοτόκης τέθηκε επικεφαλής της ομάδας των βουλευτών του Λαϊκού Κόμματος που υποστήριζαν την επάνοδο του καθεστώτος της βασιλευομένης δημοκρατίας και συμμετείχε σε πολιτικές κινήσεις προς αυτήν την κατεύθυνση. Τον Οκτώβριο του 1935, ανέλαβε αντιπρόεδρος στην κυβέρνηση του Γεωργίου Κονδύλη και Υπουργός των Εξωτερικών (από 10/10/1935 έως 30/11/1935). Η συγκεκριμένη κυβέρνηση επανέφερε τον βασιλιά από την εξορία.
 Τον Δεκέμβριο του 1935 ο Ιωάννης Θεοτόκης ίδρυσε το Εθνικό Λαϊκό Κόμμα, στο οποίο προσχώρησαν 40 βουλευτές. Στις εκλογές του Ιανουαρίου του 1936, το κόμμα του Θεοτόκη συνεργάστηκε με το Εθνικό Ριζοσπαστικό Κόμμα του Γ. Κονδύλη και άλλους ανεξάρτητους βουλευτές συγκροτώντας τη Γενική Ριζοσπαστική Λαϊκή Ένωση, η οποία κέρδισε 60 έδρες στη νέα βουλή. Στο πρώτο εξάμηνο του 1936 ο Θεοτόκης κατέστη ο βασικός εκπρόσωπος της αντιβενιζελικής παράταξης. Προκειμένου να αποφευχθεί πολιτική κρίση συμφώνησε στο σχηματισμό κυβέρνησης συνεργασίας με τον Θεμιστοκλή Σοφούλη, ηγέτη της φιλελεύθερης παράταξης.
 Η συμφωνία δεν εφαρμόστηκε ποτέ καθώς τότε κηρύχθηκε η δικτατορία της 4ης Αυγούστου του 1936 από τον Ιωάννη Μεταξά. Ο Θεοτόκης θεώρησε ότι ο βασιλιάς Γεώργιος Β ́ έδειξε ανοχή σ’ αυτήν την πολιτική εκτροπή και ήλθε σε ρήξη με τα Ανάκτορα. Ο Μεταξάς τον απομάκρυνε από την θέση του και τον έθεσε σε περιορισμό κατ' οίκον και αυστηρή παρακολούθηση στην Κέρκυρα, στο κτήμα του, στο Λιβάδι Ρόπα, εξορία που διήρκεσε οκτώ συναπτά έτη έως το 1944, καθώς όταν στο μεταξύ μετέβη στην Αθήνα, συνελήφθη εκ νέου και εξορίστηκε επίσης.
 Μετά την απελευθέρωση της χώρας και την επιστροφή στην πολιτική ομαλότητα επανήλθε στις τάξεις του Λαϊκού Κόμματος και αποκατέστησε τις σχέσεις του με τον βασιλιά. Αργότερα, κατά τη δίκη των δοσιλόγων ο Ι. Θεοτόκης κατέθεσε για τους κατηγορούμενους: "Είχον την εντύπωσιν ότι αι Κυβερνήσεις κατοχής εγένοντο δια της Γερμανικής επιβολής και ότι δεν έπρεπε να συμμετάσχουν εις αυτάς πολιτικοί, εκ των υστέρων όμως διεπίστωσα ότι αυταί γενόμεναι εξυπηρέτησαν την Χώραν και όχι τον κατακτητήν.
 Εις τας Ιονίους Νήσους τα δικαστήρια, μεταξύ άλλων, υπέστησαν τρομεράν μείωσιν εκ μέρους του κατακτητού, συνελήφθη ο εισαγγελεύς εφετών Κομνηνός, όστις μετεφέρθη αιχμάλωτος εις Ιταλίαν και ο αντιεισαγγελεύς Καταπόδης εξωρίσθη εις Ήπειρον, ενώ δεν συνέβη τούτο εις την λοιπήν Ελλάδα, όπου υπήρχε κυβέρνησις.
 Η Ιταλική διοίκησις εις τας Ιονίους Νήσους υπήρξεν αισχρά. Έδιδον 134 δράμια λάδι δι' έκαστον μηνιαίως και 4 ουγγιές καλαμποκάλευρον. Η διάλυσις των ταγμάτων ασφαλείας έφερε τον Δεκέμβριον του 1944".
 Επίσης προσέθεσεν συγκρίνων τον τρόπον της διαβιώσεως των εις τας Ιονίους Νήσους Ελλήνων υπό την άμεσον Ιταλικήν Διοίκησιν και των εις την Ηπειρωτικήν Ελλάδα Ελλήνων υπό την Ελληνικήν Κυβέρνησιν, ότι υπό τας παντοειδείς ανυποφόρους καταπιέσεις της Ιταλικής Διοικήσεως εις τας Ιονίους Νήσους, ο κόσμος επεζήτει να διαφεύγη εκείθεν προς την "Ελεύθερη Ελλάδα" και ως τοιαύτην ο κόσμος εχαρακτήριζε την λοιπήν Ελλάδα εις ην επεξετείνετο η αρμοδιότης της Ελληνικής Κυβερνήσεως".
 Το 1946 ο Θεοτόκης μαζί με τους Παναγιώτη Πουλίτσα και Κωνσταντίνο Τσαλδάρη συμμετείχαν με το Λαϊκό Κόμμα στις εκλογές για την ανάδειξη της Δ ́ αναθεωρητικής βουλής. Στην προσωρινή κυβέρνηση του Π. Πουλίτσα ο Ιωάννης Θεοτόκης έγινε υπουργός Εσωτερικών. Την κυβέρνηση Πουλίτσα μετά από έναν μήνα ακολούθησε η Κυβέρνηση Κωνσταντίνου Τσαλδάρη. Σ' αυτό το κυβερνητικό σχήμα ο Θεοτόκης διετέλεσε πρόεδρος της Βουλής για τρεις συνεχείς κοινοβουλευτικές περιόδους (1946, 1947, 1948).
 Τον Ιανουάριο του 1950 του ανατέθηκε από τον βασιλιά η εντολή σχηματισμού κυβέρνησης με σκοπό να διενεργήσει τις προσεχείς εκλογές του Μαρτίου. Έτσι, ο Θεοτόκης διετέλεσε υπηρεσιακός πρωθυπουργός και υπουργός Στρατιωτικών, Ναυτικών και Αεροπορίας. Ο ίδιος δεν συμμετείχε στις διενεργηθείσες εκλογές και αφού παρέδωσε στις 23 Μαρτίου την κυβερνητική σκυτάλη στον Σοφοκλή Βενιζέλο αποσύρθηκε οριστικά από την πολιτική σκηνή. Επέστρεψε στη γενέτειρά του, την Κέρκυρα, όπου έζησε τα τελευταία χρόνια της ζωής του. Ο Ιωάννης Θεοτόκης απεβίωσε στην Κέρκυρα στις 6 Ιουνίου 1961, σε ηλικία 81 ετών.
 Ο γιος του, Σπύρος Θεοτόκης, ήταν επίσης επιφανής πολιτικός της Ελλάδας.

text:
Gastón Mazzacane (La Plata, 8 mei 1975) is een Argentijns autocoureur en reed 21 races in de Formule 1 voor de teams van Minardi en Prost.
 Mazzacane begon zijn autosportcarrière in Argentinië en vertrok met geld van zijn vader en sponsors in 1994 naar Europa. Hoewel zijn prestaties niet geweldig waren klom hij snel op in de verschillende raceklassen. In 1999 was hij kandidaat om bij Minardi in de Formule 1 te racen maar Luca Badoer kreeg de voorkeur. Mazzacane werd testcoureur maar kreeg een jaar later dankzij zijn geld alsnog de kans.
 In de matige Minardi werd het een onopvallend jaar waarin hij regelmatig achteraan reed maar wel vaak aan de finish kwam. De Grand Prix van de Verenigde Staten was het hoogtepunt van het seizoen voor Mazzacane toen hij in wisselende weersomstandigheden een paar ronden derde lag. Punten pakte hij niet. Door het vertrek van enkele sponsors bij Minardi kon Mazzacane voor het seizoen 2001 niet blijven, hij testte voor Arrows maar kwam uiteindelijk terecht bij Prost. Na drie races werd hij daar alweer op straat gezet, omdat Alain Prost liever de bij Jaguar vervangen Luciano Burti wilde.
 In 2002 werd Mazzacane in geruchten genoemd als mogelijke coureur van Phoenix/DART, een team dat de restanten van het intussen failliete Prost had opgekocht. Uiteindelijk kwam het project niet van de grond en Mazzacane vertrok naar de Verenigde Staten om daar te gaan racen.
