After two-and-a-half hours of hearing vary disparate comments from the public, and a lively debate and discussion by council members, the Antioch City Council voted to narrow down the number of draft maps for the council district elections from four two to. The two final maps, referred to as Working Draft I and Quadrants B offer very different options and the public comments reflected those differences. Some speakers still advocated against changing to district elections, saying it will divide the city and cause council members to compete for tax dollars for projects just in their districts.
The Working Draft I map creates a single district on the north side of Highway 4 and that was supported by most of the speakers, many of whom live in that area of the city. The arguments were that there hasn't been an elected city council member from the north side of the freeway since the 1980's and the people there want someone who lives in that part of town to represent them. It was pointed out that appointed Council Member Martha Parsons lives in the north part of town and served on the council in the last decade. However, she was not elected when she ran at the end of her appointed term.
Most of the speakers in favor of Working Draft I were Hispanic, members of the East County Regional Group, and live in that part of the city, two of whom spoke in Spanish and used a translator. Another speaker in favor of the Working Draft I map was former Antioch School Board Member Joy Motts, who lost for re-election in 2014 and lost for election in 2016 and is the only candidate for city council who has filed paperwork declaring her intention to run this November.
That map garnered the support of Mayor Pro Tem Lamar Thorpe and Councilwoman Monica Wilson. Thorpe only wanted to advance that map for a final vote at the council meeting on April 10th. He argued that Motts couldn't get re-elected because people on the south side wouldn't vote for her and viewed her "as old Antioch and dismiss her." Wilson echoed Thorpe's comments, giving what sounded like an endorsement of Motts' candidacy. However, Mayor Sean Wright pointed out that Antioch School Board Member Diane Gibson-Gray lives on the north side of town and was able to get elected.
The Quadrants B map had the apparent support of Wright, and Councilmembers Lori Ogorchock and Tony Tiscareno, who agreed with the public speakers in support of it, that it would allow two council members to represent portions of the north side of Antioch. The speakers in favor of that map, including former Antioch Mayor Don Freitas, argued that in order to get something accomplished it takes the votes of three council members and with two representing the north side of town, that area will have more advocates on the council, making it easier to get to three votes.
However, there was an effort at the end of the hearing by Wright to make some changes to the Quadrants B map, to accommodate some of the concerns expressed by members of the public. As the hour was getting late, the consultants said any change to one district would cause a ripple effect among the other districts from a population standpoint, and there were still three items on the agenda that staff said needed to be dealt with, it was decided to hold one more workshop, prior to the April 10th council meeting, at 5:30 p.m. that same evening.
Interim City Attorney Derek Cole explained to the council that they have three things to decide at their meeting on April 10. First, they must vote whether or not to move forward with district elections, and if so which map to use and when to implement them, either this year, or wait until 2020 to do so.
The council voted unanimously to support moving forward both maps. They also agreed to hold a special meeting on Monday, April 23 to accommodate Ogorchock's schedule, as she will be out of town on April 24, and to ensure they complete the process in the legally proscribed time frame to avoid facing the threatened lawsuit, which started the entire process, in court.
Former Antioch Councilwoman Norma Hernandez was the first member of the public to speak saying, "I can't believe this is the United States of America and this is happening in the City of Antioch. This is the worst thing that could happen to our city.
"We're putting people against each other. At the same time, we're disenfranchising the voter. They can only vote for the mayor and one member. They'll only have two people beholding to them. I can't believe this man who has come to our cities and is going to other cities is getting away with this.
Tina Price said "I am here for the Change.org petition, put together with Ms. Walker," referring to designating the Hillcrest/Deer Valley corridor as a community of interest. She then read from the petition, which can be seen at the link, above.
Verlyn Leon said, "A resident of Antioch for more than 15 years. I greatly value having a democratic process and I support creating a single district north of Highway 4. Has different needs than other parts of Antioch. An accessible representative. Someone who lives our realities. That is democracy and is how you make our city strong. If you divide north Antioch it will create more inequality…we run the risk of being a minority. It is fair, it is democratic and the right thing to do.
East County Regional Group Vice Chair Freddie Leon said he and his wife were celebrating their 19th anniversary, which garnered applause from the audience. "This is more important," he said. "I have lived in Antioch for more than 15 years. I want my city to be a safe and secure place to raise my kids. Many people living north of Highway 4 are immigrants and people of color. The community is strong. They go to church and try to improve the community. I know it's a really hard task but they are trying. North of Antioch above Highway 4 needs to be one entity. I support working Draft 1. It is the only one that is fair.
Dr. Terry Ramus said, "Our family has lived here for 33 years, in our current house for 28 years. I was at the mapping meeting…I am opposed to this entire process. My caution is that sometimes you might get what you wish for. Folks are saying keep all of the area north of Highway 4 in one district. But, you have one vote. You still have to get two more votes. I have been coming here for years" speaking for things in the north side of the freeway.
Former Mayor Don Freitas said, "Well I'm 63 years of age and I was born in the city of Antioch. I was born in the hospital on 6th Street. I also had the great fortune of representing Antioch both locally and regionally. A lot of people, you're always going to think of Antioch's best interests. I absolutely hate this districting plan is being shoved down the throats of the people of Antioch. You can fight it or we can create four different districts. The decision you make is going to last forever. It's critical for every decision for each census when we have to move the lines. Two things are critical. Shape and balance.
"I absolutely do not like this alternative (Working Draft I). Politically you will isolate the downtown area. Be careful what you ask for you might get. You might have a representative in this schematic.
"Quadrant B…in this case you will have potentially two representatives.
"I strongly encourage you start in 2020. Alternative one does not provide balance. It does allow one person to rant and rave about the needs of the downtown area.
Joy Motts was the last to speak saying, "I was also born on Sixth Street in the same hospital (as Freitas). I couldn't disagree with you more. We already have the situation of have and have nots. Although this isn't a panacea. Clearly the people of the community are speaking out saying they want to keep the north part of Antioch together. I agree. One of the reasons I ran for school board was because…Antioch High School was falling apart. I lived in north Antioch…I knew the needs there. It's only because I brought that forward…we brought it before the people and they supported it. I'm just saying this is going to work. I have trust in you. We're all adults. We're one community, one Antioch. But we need representation for those communities. Your Quadrant map literally divides the (Rivertown) Preservation Group. Keep north Antioch together. It won't divide this community. It will empower this community." (Editor's Note: The Quadrant B map does not divide Rivertown, which is bordered from 10th Street north to the river. The section divided by that map is south of W. 10th Street).
Mayor Pro Thorpe was next to speak saying, "This is a big issue and you know Antioch has gone through a lot of change. There's a lot of change happening very rapidly. I don't like this process. This should have gone to the voters. But, as I've maintained throughout this process…I have a difficult time with these quadrants. I'm not a big fan of them. Population…I go beyond that and look at voting patterns. The quadrants do a disservice. There are just some claims that are made that are not accurate. It is true the last person to be elected to the Antioch Council was in the 1980's. But the last person to serve was Martha Parsons. That will be the same. Because southeast Antioch has grown. I wish Joy Motts was still on the school board. But, she'll never get elected because people in south Antioch look at her as old Antioch and dismiss her. This is not dividing up the city but creating legislative districts. Some folks made some claims there will be some infighting and back room deals. I picked up the phone and called Berkeley…and they said the divisions of…the hills and the flatlands have always been there. The same for Elk Grove.
"You find there is infighting but it's because of personalities not because of districts. For anyone to call this a special interest…this is a community advocacy group. The special interests are the ones financing our campaigns…who focus on growth in southeast Antioch. Because that's how you get elected in Antioch. It's through single member districts that you can raise enough money from your neighbors…so you don't have to hitch a ride with developers, Realtors or unions.
I'm not supporting any of the quadrants because they don't fulfill the purpose.
Clark then switched over to a live map to draw changes.
Cole said the council could hold another workshop.
The council then decided to start the workshop at 5:30 p.m. following a closed session at 5:00 p.m. on April 10th.
The council then settled on a special meeting on Monday night, April 23rd.
On April 10th 5:30 p.m. the council will have a workshop on the final map. At the 7:00 p.m. meeting they will take initial votes on the matter.
On April 23rd the council will consider the adoption of the final map.

Things to consider when purchasing black vinegar
Black vinegar is a very popular condiment in Asian cuisine. It's made by aging rice wine vinegar for at least a year, often longer. The longer you age it, the darker and richer the flavor will become.
There are many different types of black vinegar available on the market today. Here are some things to consider when purchasing black vinegar:
The color of the black vinegar
The color of the vinegar is determined by the types of materials used during the manufacturing process. The darker color comes from aging. If you want a darker color, you can add some coffee beans or black tea leaves to your vinegar.
The manufacturing method
There are two types of black vinegars, namely, rice and wheat-based ones. Rice-based black vinegar is made from rice, water, and koji mold. It has a fruity taste with a hint of caramel and vanilla. Wheat-based black vinegar has a stronger taste than rice-based ones and takes longer to mature. It also contains less acidity than its counterpart due to the high amount of alcohol content in it (the same goes for balsamic vinegar).
The brewing process
Black vinegar has a very long brewing process, usually about two to three months. The longer the brewing process, the more complex and flavorful the black vinegar will be.
How long the black vinegar was aged
The longer it aged, the darker and more complex its flavor will be. If you want a milder version, then buy one that has been aged for less than six months. For an intense flavor, choose one that has been aged for more than a year.
The taste of the black vinegar
Black vinegars have different tastes depending on their production methods and ingredients used to make them. Some have fruity notes while others have a sour taste like pickles or cheese rinds with hints of sweet caramelized sugar candy in between bites.
Is Chinkiang vinegar the same as black vinegar?
Yes, Chinkiang vinegar is the same as black vinegar.
Both are made from rice and are fermented with a type of mold called Aspergillus oryzae. The main difference between the two is that Chinkiang vinegar has been fermented in clay pots for up to three years, giving it a more complex flavor than black vinegar, which is also known as Shanxi or Chinkiang vinegar.
What is black vinegar used for?
Black vinegar is a type of aged vinegar that is black in color, as opposed to its typical golden color. It has a deep, rich flavor and aroma that is often used as a seasoning in Asian cuisine.
There are two types of black vinegar: rice wine vinegar and malt vinegar. Rice wine vinegar is made by fermenting rice wine with bacteria and yeast. Malt vinegar are made by fermenting grain with bacteria and yeast, then distilling the product to remove any alcohol content left over from the fermentation process.
Black vinegar can be used in many recipes to add a unique flavor to dishes such as stir-fries, marinades, salad dressings, soups and more.
We hope you have enjoyed reading about some of the best black kinds of vinegar on the market.
Black vinegar is an incredibly versatile ingredient that can be used in a wide variety of dishes. Whether you are cooking up a traditional Chinese dish, or something more exotic, black vinegar will add an element of Asian flavor that will leave your guests craving more!
If you've never tried black vinegar before, we encourage you to give it a shot—you might just find yourself hooked!

Q: Creating a mutliindex heatmap from two dicts and pandas dataframe I am having two dicts where the different keys are the same for both, but not necessarily in the same order.
DictA = {"Asia": ["Japan", "China", "Laos"], "Europe": ["England", "Sweden"]}
DictB = {"Europe": ["Denmark", "Hungary", "Spain", "Moldova"], "Asia": ["Mongolia", "Thailand"]}

These keys and values point to the columns and rows of a pandas dataframe with values that need to be made into a heatmap.
Df =
Country   Asia    Europe
Japan     3       1
Sweden    2       2
England   1       4
China     5       9
Laos      1       9
Denmark   3       1
Mongolia  1       7
Thailand  7       4
Hungary   7       3
Spain     2       9
Moldova   1       5

What I need to figure out is how to use these dicts to cross reference the pandas dataframe to make a heatmap where the values are coloring the heatmap. The name of the countries should be on the lower axis of the heatmap (but this is not important) and underneath the names of the countries should the continents that country is in (further from the heatmap). So if the names of the countries are on the left side of the heatmap, the names of the continents should be even further to the left to show where each country belongs.
I haven't got the slightest clue how to do this. Any help is greatly appreciated!

A: So, you have to build a matrix with the data and pass to the DataFrame constructor.
To build a matrix, first count all continents and countries, for each of them, save into an array, to make the labels and remember and index in the matrix.
Then, build the matrix with countries x continents size and fill with zeros. Then, per each Dict, count the ocurrences of contries in continents.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np

DictA = {"Asia": ["Japan", "China", "Laos"], "Europe": ["England", "Sweden"]}
DictB = {"Europe": ["Denmark", "Hungary", "Spain", "Moldova"], "Asia": ["Mongolia", "Thailand"]}

def createDataFrame(dicts):
  continents = []
  countries = []

  for aDict in dicts:
    for continent in aDict:
      if continent not in continents:
        continents.append(continent)

      for country in aDict[continent]:
        if country not in countries:
          countries.append(country)

  continentsLength = len(continents)
  countriesLength = len(countries)

  # countries rows x continents cols
  matrix =  np.zeros((countriesLength, continentsLength))

  for aDict in dicts:
    for continent in aDict:
      continentIndex = continents.index(continent)

      for country in aDict[continent]:
        countryIndex = countries.index(country)

        matrix[countryIndex][continentIndex] += 1

  return pd.DataFrame(matrix, columns=continents, index=countries)

df = createDataFrame([DictA, DictB])

plt.imshow(df, cmap="YlGnBu")
plt.colorbar()
plt.xticks(range(len(df.columns)),df.columns, rotation=20)
plt.yticks(range(len(df.index)),df.index)
plt.show()

And you have the output:

"Maghaberry is a challenging and complex high-security prison and this report demonstrates that. The progress that the prison made in 2012 continued through to 2014 against a backdrop of experienced staff leaving under the voluntary exit scheme and new staff coming in. The prison has faced three key challenges: resourcing, building a consistent regime and delivering outcomes for prisoners.
The report from the visit in May demonstrated that Maghaberry had been greatly affected by staff absence, which had had a serious impact on the regime and outcomes for prisoners. This has been addressed through robust management of attendance, recruitment and redeployment from other prisons. Since August, sickness levels have fallen sharply, which means more officers on the landings and a more progressive regime.
It is important to reinforce that the context in which Maghaberry operates is not the same as that for any prison in neighbouring jurisdictions. Prison officers are under severe threat, which means that an attack is highly likely. NIPS has effective mechanisms in place to disseminate information relating to threats, and staff are fully supported when security concerns are raised. Any threats to others, including contractors, are a matter for the PSNI, and there are arrangements in place to share information in that respect. In that context, I am very encouraged that over 1,700 people applied in the recent Prison Service recruitment campaign. Those individuals have an opportunity to play their part in building a safer community".
The Minister was also asked to outline the average time taken to process an Access NI check in each of the last three years and to outline the impact that youth engagement clinics are having on young people's experience of the justice system.

Plus One Robotics raises $8.3 million in Series A funding round
November 9, 2018 by David Edwards
Plus One Robotics, a 3D vision and controls developer for robotic automation in the logistics and e-commerce markets, has raised $8.3 million in its Series A investment round.
The funding round was led by Pritzker Group Venture Capital, with participation from Zebra Technologies. Also participating in the round were Schematic Ventures, Lerer Hippeau, TCL Ventures, ff Venture Capital, Dynamo, and First Star Ventures.
Erik Nieves, Plus One Robotics CEO, says: "We are delighted to add two more firms with deep roots in logistics and supply chain to our leadership."
Ty Findley, of Pritzker Group Venture Capital, says: "Already working with some of the world's premier logistics providers, Plus One's best-in-class intelligent perception technology and human-centric approach are on a path to redefine how modern distribution and fulfillment centers operate.
Findley adds: "Erik, Shaun and Paul bring decades of domain expertise to solve this problem and they are uniquely equipped to capitalize on this large and growing market opportunity. We're proud to work closely with the team as they scale their vision."
Tony Palcheck, of Zebra Ventures, says: "We work with early-stage innovative companies that share our ambition to drive productive, automated workflows through transformative technology.
"We continually seek effective solutions that provide a performance edge by intelligently connecting people, assets and data. Plus One Robotics augments manual human labor, freeing up personnel to focus on more value-add activities."
Plus One also announced the appointment of David Scheffrahn as vice president of sales. In his role, Scheffrahn will lead direct and channel sales efforts.
Plus One's flagship product, the PickOne Perception System, is a 3D vision system for the order-fulfillment and parcel-shipping markets.
The company says that rising consumer demand for shorter delivery times has increased the need for efficiency in handling and sortation of the millions of packages that must be handled each day.
Erik Nieves says: "The tight labor market and accelerating growth mean these e-commerce operators are eager for improvements in productivity. David's deep knowledge of our market, customers and partners make him the ideal candidate to lead our next phase of growth."
Scheffrahn brings more than 20 years of sales experience in automation and robotics, having previously worked at Yaskawa Motoman Robotics, Rethink Robotics, which appears to have closed down, and most recently, Seegrid.
Scheffrahn says: "I have been in the enviable position to work with the world's most innovative retailers and supply chain companies. They understand that their employees are their most valuable resource.
"We share their vision to elevate human workers to value-added tasks and reduce their burden of mundane, repetitive work. When I was introduced to Plus One Robotics' customer community, leadership team and technology, I knew I had to be part of this."

Planned Economic Reforms Related To The MSME Industry In India
Rebecca Furtado
In this blog post, Vyoma Mehta, a student of NMIMS, School of Law, who is currently pursuing a Diploma in Entrepreneurship Administration and Business Laws from NUJS, Kolkata, discusses the planned economic reforms related to the MSME Industry in India.
The Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), is well established in the economic and social development of the country. The MSME sector is a nursery of entrepreneurships, often driven by individual creativity and innovation, contributing to about 8 percent of the country's gross domestic product- 45 percent of the manufactured output and 40 per cent of its export. The industry provides employment to about 60 million people through over 26 million enterprises producing over six thousand products.[1] The labor to capital ratio in MSMEs and the overall growth of the MSME sector is much higher than in the large industries. As it is observed from the way in which the MSME industry is contributing to the growth and development of the country, it can be said that the industry is imperative for the national objectives of growth with equity and inclusion. It would be an understatement to say that MSME sector in India is highly heterogeneous regarding the size of the enterprises, a variety of product and services produced and the levels of technology employed. Cutting across all sections of production and services, MSME sector is truly a strategic asset for the economy of the country.
The Indian small scale industries play an imperative role in the economic expansion of the country and have a vast approach for employment generation. Increasing small scale sector also results in decentralized industrial development, better distribution of wealth and investment and entrepreneur talent. The government has initiated several policies for the growth and development of small scale industries. Post liberalization the economic conditions of the country have created immense growth prospects for the small scale industries. The Ministry of Agro and Land Rural Industries and the Ministry of SSI have been merged into a single Ministry namely, Ministry of Micro, Small and Medium enterprises.[2] For the past fifty years, the small scale sector has played an essential role in the socio-economic development of the country. It has significantly contributed to the overall growth regarding the gross domestic product, employment generation, and exports. The MSMEs Act 2006 which was enacted broadly classifies enterprises regarding activities such as those engaged in manufacturing, production, and enterprises engaged in services.[3]
Policy Initiatives In Micro Small And Medium Enterprises
The main objective of Industrial Policy Resolutions was to promote industrial growth and also determine the pattern of state assistance to small industrial units for fulfilling socio-economic objectives. The promotion of industries has been regarded as an important element of the development strategy underlying Five Year plans. The industrial policy indicates the respective roles of the public, private, joint and cooperative sectors and also of the large, medium and small-scale sector and underlines the national priorities.
The advent of planned economy from 1951 and the subsequent industrial policy followed by Government of India, both government and planners earmarked a particular position of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises in the Indian economy. Government's objectives and intentions towards industry including small scale industry were announced through Industrial Policy Resolutions (IPRs). The resolution was announced in 1948, 1956,1977,1980,1990 and 1991 respectively.
Industrial Policy Resolution, 1991
The Government of India, for the first time, tabled the new small enterprise policy titled policy measures for promoting, strengthening and supplementing small, tiny and village enterprises in the Parliament on August 6, 1991.This policy widened the investment limit for the tiny sectors, removed the vocational restrictions and recognized business and industry related services as small industrial units on par with the tiny units. The Small and Ancillary Industries were exempted from licensing for all articles of manufacture, which were not covered by the public sector. The investment of 0.5 million and other location conditions was withdrawn.[4] All industry related services and business enterprises with an investment limit as those of tiny enterprises, irrespective of location, were recognized as small industrial units. A new scheme of integrated infrastructural development for small industrial units was provided with the participation of State Government and Financial Institutions.
The New Industrial Policy, 1999
The emerging economic scenario in the changed labialized and competitive economic environment necessitated structural and fundamental changes in the policy framework put in place of the development of SSI. The main objective of the Industrial Policy, 1999 was to create a congenial environment for the small industrial units to cope with the emerging challenges of globalization. To focus fully on the promotion and development of small industrial units, a separate Ministry of Small Industrial Units and Agro and Rural Industries was created. The policy initiatives were:[5]
The annual turnover limit for calculation of working capital limit for small industrial units was raised to Rs. 5 crores from Rs. 4 Crores.
The maximum ceiling limit for Composite Loan Scheme was increased to Rs. 5 lakhs.
To increase the flow of credit to small industrial units, a new credit insurance scheme was launched.
Small Industrial units producing goods in rural areas are allowed excise exemption on third party branded goods.
The definition of small and ancillary industrial units was revised by reducing investment limit in plant and machinery to Rs. 1 crore from Rs. Three crores.
Special package for the development of small and village industries in North Eastern regions was announced. The industrial units in the North Eastern Region were given exemption from excise duty for ten years from the date of commencement of production
Special emphasis was given to the units which have high export potential.
Through the ministry, Government has brought about changes in policies and development support that have to enable rapid and substantial development of MSMEs in India and given them a competitive edge over their global countries. Some programs and policies have been outlined here. The facilities can be categorized into three: Policy initiatives, Institutional support and credit dispensation. The following chart shows three categorized policies.
Schemes For Financing Micro, Small And Medium Enterprises
Reimbursement For Iso-9000 Certification Scheme
The scheme was started in March 1994, and it provides up to Rs. 75,000 per small industrial unit which acquired ISO-9000 Certification.[6] Since the inception of the scheme of ISO-9000 reimbursement, 4101 small industrial units to the tune of Rs. 1944 crore have been benefited up to Nov -2006.
Laghu Udyami Credit Card Scheme
Laghu Udyami Credit Card Scheme (LUCCS)[7], introduced in November 2001, has been implemented by the banks for providing borrower friendly credit facilities to small business.
Credit Guarantee Fund Trust Scheme For Micro And Small Industries
The scheme covers collateral free credit facility extended by eligible lending institutions to new and existing Micro and Small Enterprises up to Rs. 50 lakh per borrowing unit.
National Equity Fund Scheme (NEF)
The objective of NEF Scheme is to provide equity type support to entrepreneurs for setting up new projects in tiny / small industrial sector for undertaking expansion, modernization, technology up gradation and diversification of existing tiny, Small Industries and Service Enterprises and for rehabilitation of viable sick units. In this scheme, the cost should not exceed Rs. 50 Lakhs.[8]
Integrated Infrastructure Development Scheme (IIDS)
IIDS was launched in 1994 with the objective of providing basic infrastructural facilities like Power distribution network, Water, Roads, Telecommunication, Drainage and Pollution control facility, Banks, Storage and Marketing outlets, Common service facilities and Technological backup services, etc.
The MSMEs Development Act of 2006 is perhaps the most crucial of these recent policy changes. The growth of small scale industries can be evaluated in two ways: To compare the growth rates of units. Employment, output and exports of Small-scale industries in 2000 with that of the 1990s.To ascertain the change in the relative contribution of Small Scale industries to GDP, Exports and Organized Sector employment in the 2000s with that of 1990s.The small scale sector has grown rapidly over the years. The period of liberalization and the development the MSMEs sector constituted an important segment of our economy. MSMEs are a very important segment of the Indian industrial sector and would continue to play a crucial role in the Indian Economy in the future. It also brought in huge amounts of foreign investments into the country and provided employment opportunities for many people in the country which in its turn helped reduce the level of poverty in the country. A rewarding feature of economic development in India has been an impressive growth of modern MSMEs.

No Rum Deal as MSP gives his approval to craft distillery plan
2nd November 2016 by insideMoray
David and Lara met with Richard Lochhead on the site they aim to use as a new Rum Distillery.
ATTEMPTS TO CREATE Moray's first Rum Distillery has received backing in the form of a motion at the Scottish Parliament praising the efforts of Hopeman couple David and Lara Beach.
The pair are in the process of moves that they hope will bring the Beach Craft Spirits into production – and provide another chapter in the growing story of craft beer and spirits production in Moray.
Currently Beach Craft Spirits is in the process of an effort to raise the required backing from the community through a Crowdfunding effort – and that has been given a boost thanks to a move by local MSP Richard Lochhead, who raised a motion in support of their efforts at Holyrood.
Mr Lochhead visited the Covesea base where the new distillery is being planned, saying: "I was delighted to meet with Lara and David to hear more about their plans to open a craft rum distillery right here on the Moray coast.
"Moray is fantastic hub for craft produce and clearly Beach Craft Spirits would be a fantastic addition to the local food and drink sector. To be the first craft rum distillery in Scotland to offer Crowdfunding makes their plans that bit more special – and I hope in the final days, people in Moray and across the country get behind the project and help them reach their target."
Last night Lara said she was delighted to receive support from her local MSP: "We are over the moon with the support we have received from Mr Lochhead. To take this to parliament is really something that is quite overwhelming.
"To then take the time out of what must be a very busy schedule to visit us, was extremely supportive. He has encouraged us not to give up, not that that was ever an option."
David and Lara have been crowdfunding since August to raise £35,000 to set up the distillery. The crowdfunding effort stops on November 9.
David said: "The visit from Mr Lochhead has come at just the right time. The crowdfunding finishes next week, and having a visit from him was a real boost and has given us the determination and confidence to keep going with our plans.
"Once November 9 comes there will not be a chance for people to back us in this way, so we want to encourage as many as people as possibly to visit our website and support us."
Lara and David are using Crowdfunding to promote their distillery. They are offering seven different exclusive benefits packages for backers ranging from £15 to £1000.
Investors that donate a minimum of £15 will secure themselves a plaque with their name on it which will be displayed on the distillery wall.
Whilst those putting in the top level of funding of £1000 will get the plaque plus two VIP tickets to the launch party, two first batch bottles of spiced rum, two first batch bottles of intense rum, two first batch bottles of sloe rum.
They will also get two Beach Craft Spirits t-shirts, one hoodie, two bags containing rum stones, two branded glasses, one 36Knots collaboration beanie hat. A £1000 backer will also take home an exclusive 3-year-old aged rum in a driftwood presentation case signed by the distiller, be treated to a tour of the distillery for two people and they will receive samples every six months to help shape the new product development for the first three years.
People can find out more about Lara and David's plans and crowdfund them by visiting www.beachcraftspirits.co.uk.

The Family of North America — NAD Year-end Meetings Day 4
spectrumbot (Spectrumbot) November 5, 2018, 3:41pm #1
The fourth day of the 2018 North American Division Year-end Meetings, on Sunday, November 4, began with the much-anticipated discussion on the General Conference Annual Council, and specifically the voted compliance document on "Regard for and Practice of General Conference Executive Committee Actions." But those holding their breath, waiting to see how the NAD will respond to the GC will have to wait a little longer.
NAD President Dan Jackson set the tone for the discussion right away, reminding the delegates whether we agree or disagree, everyone is to be treated with dignity and respect. "This discussion this morning is a family discussion. We are part of the Seventh-day Adventist world church family." It's not about any one person getting their way, it's about what's best for the North American Division, he said.
Jackson said the NAD officers had discussed bringing a prepared document to be voted today, and many had encouraged them to do so, but he continued, "We don't believe in coming before you as leadership and saying 'WE decided and let's pray and vote.'" He tasked the delegates that, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, they would come to a conclusion on how to move forward.
He suggested a writing committee be formed who would record the suggestions discussed and then create a proposed recommendation based on those, returning it to the body later in the week for vote. This motion passed, and then discussion on who should serve on the writing committee commenced, with Jackson recommending that representatives from each level of governance serve (unions, conferences, churches, lay persons, higher education). The following recommendations were voted:
Kyoshin Ahn, NAD undersecretary John Freedman, North Pacific Union president Celeste Ryan Blyden, Columbia Union vice president Sandra Roberts, Southeastern California Conference president Leslie Pollard, Oakwood University president Daniel Honore, Northeastern Conference president Ashton Hardin, La Sierra University student president Randy Roberts, Loma Linda University Church senior pastor Debbie Jackson, lay member from Denver, Colorado
After voting that speeches by delegates be kept to two minutes, the discussion began.
Gordon Bietz started things off by reading a statement from the college and university presidents:
Several individuals including Southern Adventist University President David Smith and Nevada-Utah Conference President Leon Brown expressed concern over the impact on the church's youth, who are witnessing disagreements within the church body and unchristian responses to conflict, and are choosing to walk away because of it. "I'm concerned about our young people. We need them more than ever before and this document sends the wrong signal," said Brown.
Matthew Hanson, Southwestern Adventist University student president, appealed to the delegates to listen to the youth of the church, and to learn from them: "We did not only send men; we did not only send women [as student delegates]. We sent men and women of diverse backgrounds working together to not further the work of our denomination, but to be the ones to finish it."
"What can I tell my students who are leaving our schools or changing their majors because they don't see their future in the church?" asked Burman University student president Tchiana Augustin.
Many talked about the discrimination against women within our church, and the fact that this is a matter of conscience. Larry Blackmer, NAD vice president, pointed out that whether you agree with ordination for women or not, the GC's compliance document is being used as a weapon against ALL women in the church: women elders, pastors, secretaries, etc., are being asked to step down because of the way the document is being used by some within the church.
Debbie Jackson, a lay member who was also a delegate at Annual Council, said it was striking to her the lack of women who were on the GC Executive Committee. "I'm not speaking for all women, but I'm speaking for the women who have contacted me... they feel very oppressed...very hurt." I always tells my granddaughter she can be anything she wants to be — ANYTHING, Jackson continued. "I don't want to have to tell her she can be anything she wants to be, unless she wants to be an ordained minister in the Seventh-day Adventist Church."
Columbia Union President Dave Weigley called the fact that the church allows women to be pastors, but only ordained pastors (men) can be conference/union presidents "pure discrimination." I never planned to lead a union that would go against the world church body, but my union constituents voted in 2012 to ordain women, he said. "Unions are responsible for their mission...we will continue to advance mission in the Columbia Union, and we will do what is right."
Still others spoke to the need to return to the mission of Jesus Christ, and that this discussion on unity and non-compliance within the world church body was distracting from what we are called by God to do, which is lead souls to Christ. Dan Linrud, Oregon Conference president countered by saying, "There is no place for human caste systems in the ministry of service….This is not a distraction from mission, this IS our mission...we have been called to this time, this place, for this purpose" to support equality.
Ron Carlson, president of the Kansas-Nebraska Conference, said that though this started as a discussion on women's ordination, it has now turned into an entire structural discussion — we have slowly moved from a bottom-up system of governance to a top-down hierarchical system, and we need to return to our original constituency-based model, where authority rests with those in the pews.
Neil Biloff, president of the Dakota Conference, and Dean Coridan, president of the Iowa-Missouri Conference, echoed Carlson's sentiments with an appeal to a return to our Protestant roots. "I suggest the document is usurped authority. The General Conference had no place to even discuss it," said Coridan.
Marc Woodsen, Northern California Conference president, and Randy Roberts, Loma Linda University Church senior pastor, both expressed their concern that people are conflating policy and votes with the Bible. Woodsen read the entirety of Fundamental Belief 14 which speaks to the equality in Christ of men and women. Roberts said, "There is an increasing tendency to conflate policy, Bible doctrine, and votes... to equate these is deeply troubling." He continued, saying, "A document like this cannot create spiritual unity. It may create organizational structural uniformity, but it will not create spiritual unity." Roberts then said he counted the number of times the word "compliance" appeared in the 3-page voted document (25 times). He then searched the Bible for that word, and found it wasn't used even once. He decided to search the Bible for the word "comply" which he found does appear once: "Mordecai refused to comply," read Roberts from Esther 3:4.
Stewart Pepper, Pittsburgh Church pastor, also read a portion of FB 14 and said we shouldn't have a policy in place that contradicts our fundamental beliefs.
Todd Pascoe, a lay member from the Oregon Conference, said the fact that God chose a woman to lead this church as its prophet should lead our decisions going forward. God could have given the Spirit of Prophecy to William Miller or James White, or any other man, but he gave it to Ellen, said Pascoe.
Vanessa Pujic, vice president at Maplewood Academy and former pastor, said it is shameful for church leaders to continue to inflict wounds on a portion of the church body that is already so disenfranchised. "It is time to let the scales fall from our eyes and bear witness to the Spirit of God falling on our sons and our daughters."
Dave Ferguson, senior pastor of Collegedale Church, said it fills him with shame when members of his congregation ask why they were not visited by a "real" pastor (when visited by a female pastor), and he feels complicit when he has to explain the difference between commissioned and ordained. "I'm not ok with that," he said. He named the women leaders who had been instrumental in his education and pastoral work, and then spoke directly to the female theology majors at Southern Adventist University. "You are my equals," he said, and then appealed to his two daughters to please be patient with the church. "I would lay down my life for you, and I would lay down my ordination for you." We're at a tipping point in this church, where when we look back we may see that our young men and our young women left because we discriminated in a way that was ungodly, he concluded.
Across the board, delegates struggled with staying within their allotted two minutes, and several were overcome with emotion at the personal impact this vote has had on so many.
After all who wanted to were able to state their case, Jackson called for prayer and then allowed individuals one minute to come back up to the mic and succinctly state a specific action they'd like to see included in the recommendation the writing committee will create. Over 30 delegates came forward with ideas that reiterated what had already been discussed. Juan Prestol-Puesan, GC treasurer, appealed to the committee to be very careful with wording and "go slow with language that may indicate separation." He reminded the delegates that he served in the NAD for 25 years before taking his position at the GC. "I voted for women's ordination three times," he added. Jackson assured Prestol there would be nothing in the written document that talked of the NAD separating from the GC. That will not happen as long as I am the president, said Jackson.
Undersecretary Ahn asked when the writing committee was expected to return with its recommendation, and Jackson asked them to try for Monday afternoon.
After the lunch break, the afternoon session was taken up with brief reports from Adventist Review Ministries, Literature Evangelism, Multilingual Ministries (including Muslim, Jewish, Hispanic, and immigrant/refugee ministries), Philanthropic Services for Institutions, and a report on the Future of Adventist Higher Education Summit that was held this past summer. But the delegates didn't seem to be able to recapture the energy of the morning.
There are two full days of meetings left, and the major item on the docket for Monday — in addition to the writing committee's task — is the Treasurer's Report, which could lead to a discussion on creating tithe parity between the NAD and the other world divisions.

this is obviously a difficult moment for our division…i think the fact that the GC rep, juan prestol-puesan, appealed to the committee to avoid wording suggesting separation means that this very definitely is what some are thinking…and DJ's assertions to the contrary, the idea of separation may be out of his hands…
elmer_cupino (Elmer Cupino) November 5, 2018, 8:19pm #3
"go slow with language that may indicate separation."
I would suggest to the contrary. The wording should reflect the full and unapologetic intent of the NAD mission, not what will appease the GC. These are two different animals. Once the positions have been staked, then negotiations can begin in earnest. Otherwise, what is there to negotiate?
elmer_cupino:
Once the positions have been staked, then negotiations can begin in earnest. Otherwise, what is there to negotiate?
you've got a point, elmer…and if staking positions clearly reveals that there isn't enough to negotiate, we're probably better off knowing that sooner, rather than later…

NAD stands for North American Division. The word division now has double meaning. Wonder of wonders that gender would be so divisive. The life they lead, the words that they share, the commitment they demonstrate, the education they have received and the life they have dedicated. Are the reason they should receive the recognition by the laying on of senior hands, gender aside. Gonadal theology is bunk.The proper issue is not who but what.
GeorgeTichy (George Tichy) November 5, 2018, 9:13pm #6
I would suggest to the contrary.
I fully agree. This is not a moment for any representative form the GC to come and warn the NAD with language like this, "go slow with language that may indicate separation." What did he mean with that, that there could be "grave consequences?" Or did it indicate his (the GC terasurer) concerns with a possible cut in funds from the NAD?
There is no room for "going slow." There is actually an urgency to "go fast," because the GC is most probably working on a very aggressive plan of attack, ready to start a true inquisition.
By the way, the GC never follows that rule of "going slow" with their language, or their politicking. Why are they recommending it to others? Just another case of hypocrisy???
Pierrepaul (Pierre-Paul Legault) November 5, 2018, 9:29pm #7
Fascinating. Of the nine members of the "writing" committee, seven are paid employees of the church. Tithe dollars at work writing reports, letters, memoranda and position papers. The fictional Sir Humphry Appelbee as permanent undersecretary for the Minister of Administrative Affairs couldn't have done better.
petersomerset (Peter Marks) November 5, 2018, 9:43pm #8
This was a discussion worth having! The tone of the discussion was very acceptable. The chairmanship was superb. Dan Jackson very neatly laid out the perimeters of the whole thing and the tone was set in an expert way.
Several things disappointed however.
Though I see huge deficiencies in the document under discussion there was little attempt to encourage those who felt more positively toward it to feel secure. Perhaps if there had been one dedicated microphone for those in support of the document they may have felt more able to speak and less intimidated.
The writing committee did seem so heavily weighed with those who have proved themselves champions of the majority view of the document. Perhaps if qualified individuals with the required literary skills could have been found to give voice within the writing committee to the view of a sizeable but near silent minority (or so it seems) in the NAD, then the finished product would carry more weight with the GC.
When the NADYEM 18 is compared with the GCEC 18 discussion of the document, I feel I detect that the NAD discussion was the less wide ranging and less comprehensive. (I appreciated the overall tone of the NAD discussion much more but I doubt that it was as heavy hitting as the GC discussion. Perhaps there was more passion expressed in the NAD Meeting).
The overreach of the GC with this new policy was only lightly touched on. Ditto, the hierarchical and authoritarian and centralised nature of the system it creates.
The writing committee need to produce a document that accurately represents the mood and the best thinking of the NAD.
But more important than this we need a document that appeals to the world field to see the issues from the NAD perspective. An acknowledgement that the NAD is not a monolithic block on this issue needs to be made.
petersomerset:
Dan Jackson very neatly laid out the perimeters of the whole thing and set the tone.
i think DJ is walking a bit of a tightrope…as division president, he is obviously a GC vice president, supposedly committed to GC policies…so if the writing committee produces something that suggests or threatens separation, and he signs it, i don't think TW would hesitate to remove him…
as i understand it, divisions have no constituency, and DJ wasn't elected…i don't think he has any protection from TW…he could be facing unemployment…he could be the first casualty from battle creek…
i'm also starting to think that juan prestol-puesan, being GC treasurer, may have been sent to NAD's YEM to keep NAD's tithe in the GC fold…
elmer_cupino (Elmer Cupino) November 5, 2018, 9:54pm #10
vandieman:
There are other possibilities. Should DJ be terminated by TW, NAD could hire him as a consultant. No reason to have a person with all the wisdom and knowledge like DJ go to waste, assuming he takes to heart the mission of the NAD. He will have to cut clean his umbilical cord to the GC.
petersomerset (Peter Marks) November 5, 2018, 9:55pm #11
I think your comments contain a great deal of speculation. Can we stick to facts please.
The fact is that Dan Jackson did little wrong in the NAD discussion.
The other fact is that the writing committee have a duty to produce a document that has power both to present the NAD majority perspective on the document as well as being able to persuade the world field of the appropriateness of their concerns.
DJ was elected by the GC Session. The GC Session Nominating Committee is composed of 13 Division caucuses which recommend their respective officers to the full committee which ratify the names before these names are presented to and voted on the floor of the GC Session.
The NAD has no constituency of its own for it is part of the GC constituency, as is every other Division. The South Pacific Division (formerly known till 1985 as the Australasian Division) was organised circa 1950 from the Australasian Union Conference which was based on the home fields of Australia and New Zealand but also included the island nations of the Pacific. From circa 1950 to 1990 the Division had its own constituency session. This was an anomaly.
vandieman (jeremy) November 5, 2018, 10:32pm #12
DJ was elected by the GC Session.
but not by a tithe-paying constituency…
tjzwemer (Thomas J Zwemer) November 5, 2018, 10:48pm #13
His father fought against challenges to Dan 8:14 and Challenges to Ellen White. Now the son draws a line in the sand over gender. Believe it or not, Colin Standish agrees with Ted. Viewed by a bystander it is folly but not funny.,
petersomerset (Peter Marks) November 5, 2018, 11:13pm #14
The GC constituency is a tithe paying constituency. The percentage of tithe that the GC receives is used for the work of administration and also it is redistributed to needy fields.
Each Division has Year End Meetings around this time. People from GC Presidential, Secretariat and Treasury fan out in 13 different directions to attend these meetings. That is why Dr Stele, Juan Prestol etc attend the NADYEM's. It makes sense that Prestol should be assigned to the NAD as he was serving in the NAD office for so many years. Specific individuals from the GC Officer teams are also assigned to specific Divisions for the quinqennium.
If my sources are correct the GC Treasury has been anticipating a sizeable tithe loss for several years now and are well prepared for it.
GeorgeTichy (George Tichy) November 5, 2018, 11:23pm #15
to keep NAD's tithe in the GC fold…
I bet you are 99.9999% sure of this, as I am, right?..
If only we had the GC leadership in the hand of people who are not supporters of discrimination of women, who are not thirsty of total control of power, who are more committed to the Church & the Gospel than to their own EGOs… If only…
Just imagine how different the scenario in our Church could be right now. The Church is as disturbed as our country. All because of disturbing leaderships! Will it ever change? What do the readers think?
sdaequalitynow1 (Sam Matthews) November 6, 2018, 2:59am #17
For those who think the "Writing Committee" has come up with something groundbreaking, it is really just a summary of what was said by some on Sunday. If you listened to what Randy Roberts said, he pretty much just wrote it down. No talk about separation but some language about exploring options if compliance committees actually take action - because the truth is nobody really knows how they will work.
It basically echoes the Pacific Union statement and carries no more weight than a resolution. It's actually shorter than I thought it would be.
Nothing about LGBTQ rights but that's to be expected from this body.
vandieman (jeremy) November 6, 2018, 3:17am #18
The GC constituency is a tithe paying constituency.
this is the first time i've ever heard this…i've always heard that the GC and its divisions, unlike unions and conferences, don't have their own tithe paying constituency…that's why the GC and its divisions are dependent on tithe being forwarded from local churches through conferences and unions…
GeorgeTichy:
lol…why else was prestol-puesan at NAD's YEM…he made a strong point of the fact that he was a NAD employee for 25 yrs, and that he voted for WO three times, as if we're not supposed to notice that he's now the GC treasurer…
i honestly will be very surprised if NAD doesn't reduce the percentage of tithe it forwards to the GC…it's the only hand we have left…i'll also be surprised if the writing committee doesn't come up with something that hints at separation from the GC…the combination of san antonio and battle creek has been too egregious for everything to go on as usual…

The G.C. Session is the constituency meeting of the General Conference just as the respective Union Conference Session is the constituency meeting of the Union Conference and likewise for Conference constituencies. Conferences tithe to their Unions and Unions to their Divisions. The Divisions tithe to the General Conference. The General Conference disperses its tithe for its administration and some also to the world field. I don't see what you are getting at.
The constituents of the world field are at one and the same time are constituents of their Conference and of the General Conference, and also of their respective Union.
Divisions are all aggregates of the G.C., so they have no constituencies of their own.
Those who propose that the Divisions join in a lose confederation of regional Adventist churches are just adding one more layer of hierarchy. This is completely unnecessary.

As we have now seen, Prestol fumbled the ball badly, insulting the committee and all but ensuring the vote for equalization in 2-3 years. The GC has yet to understand what it has unleashed. Any move against Jackson at this point would certainly split the church right in two.

Young Nechayev

Literary movement:
Sergey Gennadiyevich Nechayev (also Sergei Nechaev, Сергей Геннадиевич Нечаев) (born October 2, 1847, died either November 21 or December 3, 1882) was a Russian revolutionary figure associated with the Nihilist movement. The Nihilist movement was an 1860s Russian cultural movement which questioned the validity of all existing moral values and institutions. It is derived from the Latin word "Nihil," which means "nothing." After the killing of Tsar Alexander II Nihilists were known throughout Europe as proponents of the use of violence as the primary tool for political change. Nechayev, in particular, was known for his single-minded pursuit of revolution by any means necessary, including political violence.

Early life in Russia
Nechayev was born in Ivanovo, then a small textile town, to poor parents; his father was a waiter and sign painter. He had already developed an awareness of social inequality and a resentment of the local nobility in his youth. In 1865 at age 18, Nechayev moved to Moscow, where he worked for the historian Mikhael Pogodin. A year later, he moved to St. Petersburg, passing a teacher's exam and beginning to teach at a parish school. Nechayev attended lectures at St. Petersburg University (without being officially enrolled) and became acquainted with the subversive Russian literature of the Decembrists, the Petrashevsky Circle, and Mikhail Bakunin, among others, as well as the growing student unrest at the university.
Nechayev participated in student activism in 1868-1869, leading a radical minority with Petr Tkachev and others. Nechayev took part in devising this student movement's "Program of revolutionary activities", which claimed a social revolution as its ultimate goal. The program also suggested ways for creating a clandestine revolutionary organization and conducting subversive activities. In particular, the program envisioned composition of the "Catechism of a Revolutionary", for which Nechayev would become famous.
The Geneva exiles
In January of 1869, Nechayev spread false rumors of his arrest in St. Petersburg, then left for Moscow before heading abroad. In Geneva, Switzerland, he pretended to be a representative of a revolutionary committee who had fled from the Peter and Paul Fortress, and he won the confidence of revolutionary-in-exile Mikhail Bakunin and his friend and collaborator Nikolai Ogarev. Ogarev, on Bakunin's suggestion, dedicated a poem to Nechayev:
THE STUDENT (To my young friend Nechaev)
He was born to a wretched fate
And taught in a hard school,
And suffered interminable torments
In years of unceasing labor.
But as the years swept by
His love for the people grew stronger
And fiercer his thirst for the common good
The thirst to improve man's fate.
It was rumored at the time (and has been claimed by some contemporary writers) that the 55-year-old Bakunin became infatuated with the young Nechayev, and the two secretly became lovers. The relationship was certainly close and passionate, and ultimately deeply troubled. Bakunin saw in Nechayev the authentic voice of Russian youth, which he regarded as "the most revolutionary in the world." He would hold onto this idealized vision long after his association with Nechayev became damaging to him.
In late spring 1869, Nechayev (possibly with Bakunin) wrote the "Catechism of a Revolutionary," a program for the "merciless destruction" of society and the state. The flavor of its prose can be seen in a section of 'article 13':
The revolutionary is not an individual who feels pity for anything in this world, who hesitates before the annihilation of any situation, any relationship, or any person who is part of this world, in which everyone and everything must be regarded as equally hateful.
The main principle of the "Catechism"—"the ends justify the means"—became Nechayev's slogan throughout his revolutionary career. He saw the ruthless immorality in the pursuit of total control by the Church and State, and believed that the struggle against them must therefore be carried out by any means necessary, with an unwavering focus on their destruction. The individual self is to be subsumed by a greater purpose in a kind of spiritual asceticism which for Nechayev was far more than just a theory, but the guiding principle by which he lived his life.
The book was to influence generations of radicals, and was re-published by the Black Panther Party in 1969—one hundred years since its original publication. It also influenced the formation of the militant Red Brigades in Italy the same year.
Ogarev, Bakunin and Nechayev organized a propaganda campaign of subversive material to be sent to Russia, financed by Ogarev from the so called "Bakhmetiev Fund," which had been intended for subsidizing their own revolutionary activities. Alexander Herzen disliked Nechayev's fanaticism and strongly opposed the campaign, believing Nechayev was influencing Bakunin toward more extreme rhetoric. However, Herzen relented to hand over much of the fund to Nechayev, which he was to take to Russia to mobilize support for the revolution.
Return to Russia
Having left Russia illegally, Nechayev had to sneak back to Moscow in 1869 with help from Bakunin's underground contacts. There he lived an austere life, spending the fund only on political activities. He pretended to be a proxy of the Russian department of the "Worldwide Revolutionary Union" (which didn't exist) and created an affiliate of a secret society called Narodnaya Rasprava (Народная расправа, "People's Reprisal"), which, he claimed, had existed for quite some time in every corner of Russia. He spoke passionately to student dissidents about the need to organize. Marxist writer Vera Zasulich recalls that when she first met Nechayev, he immediately tried to recruit her:
Nechayev began to tell me his plans for carrying out a revolution in Russia in the near future. I felt terrible: it was really painful for me to say "That's unlikely," "I don't know about that." I could see that he was very serious, that this was no idle chatter about revolution. He could and would act - wasn't he the ringleader of the students? ... I could imagine no greater pleasure than serving the revolution. I had dared only to dream of it, and yet now he was saying that he wanted to recruit me... And what did I know of "the people"? I knew only the house serfs of Biakolovo and the members of my weaving collective, while he was himself a worker by birth.
Many were impressed by the young proletarian and joined the group. However, the already fanatical Nechayev appeared to be becoming more distrustful of the people around him, even denouncing Bakunin as doctrinaire, "idly running off at the mouth and on paper." One Narodnaya Rasprava member, I. I. Ivanov, disagreed with Nechayev about the distribution of propaganda, and left the group. On November 21, 1869, Nechayev and several comrades beat, strangled and shot Ivanov, hiding the body in a lake through a hole in the ice. This incident was fictionalized by writer Fyodor Dostoevsky in his political novel The Devils, published three years later. The character of Peter Verkhovensky is based on Nechayev.
The body was soon found, and some of his colleagues arrested, but Nechayev eluded capture, and left for Petersburg in late November where he tried to continue his activities to create a clandestine society. On December 15, 1869, he fled the country, heading back to Geneva.
Nechayev grew increasingly alienated from his comrades in later years.
Nechayev was embraced by Bakunin and Ogarev on his return to Switzerland in January 1870—Bakunin wrote "I so jumped for joy that I nearly smashed the ceiling with my old head!" Soon after their reunion, Herzen died, and a large fund from his personal wealth was made available to Nechayev to continue his political activities. Nechayev issued a number of proclamations aimed at different strata of the Russian population. Together with Ogarev, he published the Kolokol magazine (April-May, 1870, issues one to six). In his article "The Fundamentals of the Future Social System" (Главные основы будущего общественного строя), published in the People's Reprisal (1870, №2), Nechayev shared his vision of a communist system which Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels would later call "barracks communism."
However Nechayev's suspicion of his comrades had grown even greater, and he began stealing letters and private papers with which to blackmail Bakunin and his fellow exiles, should the need arise. He enlisted the help of Herzen's daughter, Natalie. Bakunin rebuked Nechayev upon discovery of his duplicity: "Lies, cunning [and] entanglement [are] a necessary and marvelous means for demoralizing and destroying the enemy, though certainly not a useful means of obtaining and attracting new friends." Although Bakunin continued to defend the young radical he called "my tiger cub," he began warning friends about his behavior.
The General Council of peak left-wing organization the "First International" officially dissociated themselves from him, claiming he had abused the name of the organization. After writing a letter to a publisher on Bakunin's behalf, threatening to kill the publisher if he didn't release Bakunin from a contract, Nechayev became even more isolated from his comrades. First International member German Lopatin accused him of theoretical unscrupulousness and pernicious behavior, prompting Ogarev and Bakunin to publicly sever their relations with him in the summer of 1870—although Bakunin continued to write Nechayev letters passionately begging for reconciliation and warning him of the danger he was in from the law, who were still pursuing him for Ivanov's murder.
In September of 1870, Nechayev published an issue of the Commune magazine in London and later, hiding from the tsarist police, went underground in Paris and then Zurich. He also kept in touch with the Polish blanquists, such as Caspar Turski and others. In 1872, Karl Marx produced the threatening letter Nechayev had written to the publisher at a meeting of the First International, in which Bakunin was also expelled from the organization.
On August 14, 1872, Nechayev was arrested in Zurich and handed over to the Russian police. He was found guilty on January 8, 1873, and sentenced to 20 years of katorga (hard labor) for killing Ivanov. Nechayev, while locked up in a ravelin of the Peter and Paul Fortress, managed to win over his guards with the strength of his convictions, and by the late 1870s, he was using them to pass on correspondence with revolutionaries on the outside. In December of 1880, Nechayev established contact with the Executive Committee of Narodnaya Volya (People's Will) and proposed a plan for his escape. However, he abandoned the plan due to his unwillingness to distract the efforts of the members of Narodnaya Volya from their attempt to assassinate Alexander II.
Vera Zasulich, who ten years earlier had been among those investigated for Ivanov's murder, heard that a young political prisoner had been flogged, by order of the head of the St. Petersburg police, General Trepov. Though not a follower of Nechayev, she was outraged by his mistreatment and plight of other political prisoners, and she walked into Trepov's office and shot and wounded him. In an indication of the popular political feeling of the time, she was found not guilty by the jury on the grounds that she had acted out of noble intent.
In 1882, Nechayev died in his cell, still unwavering in his conviction, without once having betrayed his comrades.
