Thanh Binh 2 Hotel
One of the better budget hotels
What we say:
Not that you'd notice it from the dark Chinese-style reception, but the Thanh Binh 2 has had a spot of renovation work. Gone are the super low beds, heavy orange-tinged furniture and dark accessories, and in their place are bright white characterful ensuite rooms with Victorian-style padded headboards, simple beach-style wardrobes and accessories that complement each other, rather unlike the mix and match look of earlier days. Floors have been revamped with large black and white tiles and the bathrooms spruced up to match. One of the ground floor superior rooms even has a standard bathtub in the bedroom, which is just a little bit odd. As of mid-2013 not every room had received the magical make-over, so do ask to see a few rooms before making your mind up. Facilities include free WiFi, an in-house tailor, breakfast room and use of the really odd pool at their sister hotel a few doors down (which is in need of a makeover to compete with the cheaper Thanh Binh 2). Standard rooms can be a little cramped, but others are bright and spacious. Deluxe rooms have balconies with table and chairs -- a pleasant addition even if they do only face onto the road. There are also two recently added family rooms, which sleep up to four people with a double and two single beds. They're likely to quickly come down on the rate a bit at least so don't accept first offer. Breakfast is included.

Diplo, 2014
|Background information
|Birth name
|Thomas Wesley Pentz
|November 10, 1978
|Tupelo, Mississippi, United States[1]
|Years active
|Associated acts
Thomas Wesley Pentz (born November 10, 1978),[2] better known by his stage name Diplo, is an American DJ, record producer, rapper and songwriter based in Los Angeles, California. He founded and manages record company Mad Decent, as well as co-founding the non-profit organization Heaps Decent. Among other jobs, he has worked as a school teacher in Philadelphia. He is also the co-creator and lead member of the electronic dancehall music project, Major Lazer. His 2013 EP Revolution debuted at number 68 on the US Billboard 200.
During his rise to fame, Diplo worked with British musician M.I.A., an artist who is credited with giving him exposure in his early career. Later, he and fellow M.I.A. producer Switch created a Jamaican dancehall project and cartoon series titled Major Lazer.[3] Since then, Diplo has worked on production and mixtape projects with many other notable pop artists, such as Britney Spears, Madonna, Shakira, Beyoncé, No Doubt, Justin Bieber, Usher, Snoop Dogg, Chris Brown, CL and G-Dragon.[4][5][6][7][8] His alias, short for Diplodocus, derives from his childhood fascination with dinosaurs.[9] He is the co-producer of several tracks on Madonna's 2015 album Rebel Heart and he collaborated with Skrillex to create the duo Jack Ü.
DJ and Hooked on Hollertronix[edit]
Diplo was born on November 10, 1978 in Tupelo, Mississippi, the son of Barbara Jean (née Cox) and Thomas Pentz.[10][11][12] The influence of home-grown rap played a key role in helping shape his production style. He spent the majority of his youth in Miami, where he got a taste for the characteristic Miami bass.[13][14][15] He began attending the University of Central Florida in 1997, and then moved to Philadelphia to continue his studies at Temple University, where he first garnered attention as a DJ.[16] After frequently running into fellow DJ Low Budget, the two began throwing parties under the Hooked on Hollertronix moniker in 2003 as a way of maintaining control of what they were able to play during DJ gigs in Philadelphia.[5] The success of these parties allowed the two to release mixtapes, both separate and together, gathering acclaim across the country.[17] One such mixtape, Never Scared, was named one of the New York Times' top ten albums of 2003,[18] and the Hollertronix name became synonymous with parties featuring guests like Maluca Mala, Bun B, Spank Rock, M.I.A., among others.[19] Hollertronix's sound has been described as "disparate genres to be smashed together for maximum attention-grabbing impact" an aesthetic which takes from the "organic, cohesive, whole" aesthetic of acts such as Bun B, Lil Jon, Drama, M.I.A., Björk, Busta Rhymes, and others.[7][20]
Diplo accentuated the club aesthetic of his Hollertronix music for a more reflective sound on his solo debut, Florida, which was released on the Ninja Tune imprint, Big Dada Records.[21] The album Florida was pressed twice, first with a CD and the second with a CD and DVD. The DVD was created by System D-128, another artist who has collaborated with Diplo on some audio and video projects. Before Florida's DVD accompaniment, another DVD surfaced called Diplo: "Banned in Libya" which was released by Money Studies, the first label to release a solo project by Diplo under his original DJ name Diplodocus. It was a 45 rpm record called "Thingamajawn" for which there is also a music video System D-128 directed. Similar to the Florida DVD, "Banned in Libya" is an experimental audio and video mix of some of Diplo's original music blended with a number of other unidentified sources. His particular affinity for one genre of music called baile funk (or favela funk) would spawn a series of mixtapes (Favela on Blast, Favela Strikes Back), which served to bring the Brazilian dance music of the ghettos to the United States.[17]
It was not long before his Hooked on Hollertronix parties would provide him the success necessary to move to the next logical step and build a studio where music would become his full-time focus. With this goal in mind, Diplo built "The Mausoleum," a video studio, recording studio, record label office, gallery, and event space in Philadelphia.[22] Since its inception, The Mausoleum has become the home to recordings by artists like Christina Aguilera, Shakira, M.I.A., Santigold, Spank Rock, Plastic Little, Blaqstarr, Paper Route Gangstaz, and hosted concerts by Glass Candy, Skream, Boys Noize, Nicos Gun, and more.[22]
After hearing one of his songs in 2004, M.I.A. approached Diplo when he was DJing one night at the Fabric Club in London.[23] Coincidentally, Diplo was playing her songs "Galang" and "Fire Fire" as she entered the club, which he got from a worker at i-D magazine.[23][24] Diplo added, "She came through and she wanted to meet me 'cause she'd heard my single and the funk mix from one of her A&Rs and she just thought I was right up her alley. Besides me being a white dude from Florida and her being a Sri Lankan girl in England, everything else was the same: [We were both] film graduates, [listened to] all the same music when we were kids, were going in the same direction right now in music, it was amazing... I always wanted to make a beat with her, but all my beats were really shitty at the time."[24][25] The two eventually collaborated on a mixtape, Piracy Funds Terrorism Vol. 1., where Arular track acapellas were mashed with other artists' songs and was mentioned as 'Albums of the Year' from the New York Times and Pitchfork Media.[24][26] The two became romantically involved for five years[27] and continued to work together after the release and he toured as a DJ on her 2005 Arular Tour.
Diplo would continue to work with M.I.A. and, through her, meet London DJ Switch; together they created the Grammy nominated track 'Paper Planes', peaking at No.4 on the Billboard US Hot 100.[28] In 2015, during an interview with Rolling Stone, M.I.A said that Diplo resented her rise to fame in 2005, that he tried to hold her back, and fought with her about becoming successful.[29]
Mad Decent[edit]
From this, Diplo went from an unknown DJ to taking off as a producer, landing him collaborations with artists like Shakira, Robyn, Kid Cudi, Bruno Mars, No Doubt and Snoop Dogg, as well as work with Maluca, Kid Sister, Die Antwoord, Alex Clare, Rolo Tomassi, Amanda Blank and Dark Meat. After taking a trip to Brazil to investigate the favela music scene,[5] and fascinated with the energy the scene had to offer, Diplo decided to import a dance-funk group Bonde do Rolê from Brazil for release on his Mad Decent record label (also housed within 'The Mausoleum').[30] This group would serve to define funk carioca in the United States, spawning a host of others to join the movement. Diplo also spent some time documenting the music, and the favelas of Brazil[31]
Although favela funk remained an interest (the Favela on Blast documentary just saw release in 2009), his Mad Decent imprint would serve as a blank palette for Diplo to showcase the myriad different sounds he had come across while touring around the world.[16] September 2009 even saw Diplo travel to China to play with Steve Aoki at a show organised by promoters Split Works.[32] Diplo quickly developed a reputation for his extensive touring. In the April 2010 issue of Rolling Stone, Diplo was touted as one of '40 Reasons to be Excited About Music'.[33] This kind of jet setting pushed his label far beyond the favela funk genre with which it initially began. Since its foundation in 2005[34] Diplo's Mad Decent label has released music by Santigold, Baauer, Lil' Jon, Gucci Mane, Peter Bjorn and John, Rusko, Bosco Delrey, Buraka Som Sistema, Savage Skulls, Oliver Twizt, Jamie Fanatic, Douster, Boy 8-Bit, and Popo.[35][36]
Major Lazer[edit]
Diplo's first collaborative full-length record was with Switch, this time under the guise Major Lazer. After landing a deal with Downtown Records before even recording a note of music, Diplo & Switch set out for Jamaica to record a project that, like most of Diplo's projects before it, would highlight the little-known subgenres, this time of Jamaica's dancehall scene.[28] The two received support by many already established Jamaican artists such as Vybz Kartel, Elephant Man and Ms. Thing, and the resulting record Guns Don't Kill People... Lazers Do also featured vocals from Santigold, Amanda Blank, Nina Sky, Ricky Blaze and more.[37] When discussing the Major Lazer project, Diplo described the dancehall sound as being " the end of the world, all the little influences—house, soca, oldies, R&B, jazz—it all ends up in Jamaica."[38] The track "Pon De Floor" from Guns Don't Kill People... Lazers Do was sampled for Beyoncé's single "Run the World (Girls)".[39]
Major Lazer's first album was followed up with an EP, Lazers Never Die, which was released in 2010. A second album, Free The Universe, was scheduled to be released in November 2012 but was delayed to February 2013, and then to April 15. It features artists such as Ezra Koenig, Bruno Mars, Ward 21, Wyclef, The Partysquad, Shaggy, Tyga, Flux Pavilion and Wynter Gordon.[40] Their third album, Peace is the Mission, was released on June 1, 2015. It features collaborations with Ariana Grande, MØ, Ellie Goulding, 2 Chainz and more.[41]
Jack Ü[edit]
Jack Ü is a duo made up of Skrillex and Diplo. Jack Ü's debut performance took place at the Mad Decent Block Party in San Diego on September 15, 2013, which is a nationwide tour that record label Mad Decent puts together in order to showcase different artists signed to the label.[42] Diplo announced the project by releasing the Mad Decent Block Party lineup with Jack Ü playing at multiple stops on the tour. After some guessing by many of who Jack Ü was, Diplo finally came out to reveal that "Jack Ü ... means Skrillex and Diplo together".[42] On February 27, 2015 they released Skrillex and Diplo Present Jack Ü, a co-release between their respective labels OWSLA and Mad Decent. It featured tracks with 2 Chainz, Kiesza, Justin Bieber, AlunaGeorge and Missy Elliott. On March 29th 2015 Jack Ü closed main stage at Ultra Music Festival in Miami
On February 11, 2015, Diplo released a short Instagram video for a Jack Ü and Missy Elliott collaboration,[43] incorporating illustrator Rebecca Mock's artwork without permission. When confronted on Twitter, he credited Mock but responded with an offensive, sexually explicit tweet.[44]
Additional work[edit]
Beyond Major Lazer and Mad Decent, Diplo has continued to show support for 'all the little influences', the lesser-known music scenes around the globe. Most recently his focus shifted to the 'Bounce' scene in New Orleans, Louisiana for a television piece commissioned by Current.tv.[45] Diplo was nominated for Non-Classical Producer of the Year at the 55th Grammy Awards.[46] As of 2014 Diplo has a late night show on BBC Radio 1 / 1Xtra on Sundays 0400 – 0600 called 'Diplo and Friends' where he curates mixes from some of biggest names in dance music.[47] Diplo also has several syndicated Diplo and Friends shows in the United States in Boston, Bakersfield, Cleveland, Columbus, Las Vegas, Spokane, Albuquerque, Lafayette, Denver, and most notably on Los Angeles' 98.7 every Sunday at 9pm.[48]
2008.[49] He has two sons with Kathryn Lockhart: Lockett (2010) and Lazer Lee Louis Pentz (2014).[50]

Maybe now we finally know why Aretha Franklin has been insisting on having Halle Berry portray her in her upcoming biopic.
According to a press release from her publicist, Gwendolyn Quinn, Franklin believes she and the Oscar-winning actress are related.
She says according to a family member, her grandmother and Halle's grandmother were first cousins.
Franklin is currently investigating the authenticity of the family member's claim. Franklin has stated in the past that Halle reminds her of the younger version of herself.
Do you think they can be related?

Texas, You're Going the Wrong Way!
Posted By Lauren Heartsill Dowdle On August 23, 2013 @ 7:30 am In The Roadologist | No Comments
[1]Normally, when a gravel road starts seeing a lot of traffic, it earns enough street cred to be upgraded to asphalt. But Texas has this process a little backward.
Instead of repairing an asphalt road in parts of South and West Texas, the state decided to revert it into a gravel road. The 80 miles of road have been damaged by heavy oil-industry equipment, along with local traffic, and the state says it can't afford to maintain "farm-to-market" roads [2] such as this one.
In addition to going to gravel, the "new" roads will also have a reduced speed limit of 30 mph in some segments.
Just to recap, the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is replacing asphalt with gravel [3] and lowering the speed limit. Why are they going in the wrong direction?
Money is tight everywhere, but won't it cost more in the long run if they decide those roads need to go back to asphalt in the future? Then they will have to start the process all over again.
"I just can't believe the Department of Transportation is going back to the dark ages," says Darlene Meyers, a 77-year-old rancher, to The Texas Tribune [4].
While everything else may be bigger in Texas, the state's thought process definitely isn't one of those things.

#17Support cabal more clearly
Sorry for such a vague suggestion, but this is something that could really make darcshub stand out. Special highlighting and/or display of the .cabal file, a service for attempting to build a cabalized project, a button for generating a new cabalized project. Just a few possibilities that would make darcshub a better Haskell host than github.
For the building part, there will be scoutess inn a few months, hopefully.

He realized that these were abnormal times and people who followed the normal rules were at risk.
Is there something bizarre or abnormal about this type of father-daughter relationship, their closeness?
In MS, the amount and quality of myelin is abnormal, replaced by "sclerotic" plaques, the hallmark of the disease.
But in our society of intense scrutiny of physical appearance, my humiliation was not an abnormal outcome of his careless actions.
These four strains also cause the benign cervical changes that result in abnormal Pap tests.
This being so, we may very roughly describe all illusion as abnormal.
It was composed of the grim psychological laws that govern the abnormal.
A practical question is, How far could such a congregation lapse into an abnormal state and still be a church of God?
Mine had been a solitary life, an unusual, abnormal kind of life.
Fatigue, of course, may also be due to the absence of such means or to abnormal conditions originated by functioning itself.
1835, displaced older abnormous (1742) and rival anormal (1835) under influence of Latin abnormis "deviating from a rule," from ab- "off, away from" (see ab-) + norma "rule" (see norm). The older forms were via Old French anormal (13c.), from Medieval Latin anormalos, from Greek anomalos, from an- "not" + homalos, from homos "same." The Greek word was altered in Latin by association with norma. Related: Abnormally.

Crowds and sales at Delhi's art fair but can it stay international?

Love it or hate – the Turner Prize gets people talking
Outside of the art world, the Turner Prize seems to be a byword for work that is self-indulgent, 'easy' to produce and generally laughable. Most years, it serves as an excuse for anyone who fancies it to make uninformed, unfunny jokes about Tracey Emin's unmade bed. However, with a lack of such easy targets this year, could this change the way people see the beleaguered competition?

Just take one look at Mitsubishi's latest vehicles, both concept and production, and it's obvious that fuel economy – not performance – reigns supreme. With this in mind, it shouldn't be too much of a surprise that Caradvice.com.au is suggesting that Mitsubishi is putting development of future performance models (like the 2013 Lancer Evolution GSR shown above) on hold as the company focuses on electric and plug-in vehicles.

June 19 -- Austin, Texas is about to meet its goal of getting 35% of its energy from renewables, four years before the 2020 target date. Its utility, Austin Energy, is about to sign contracts for two large-scale wind farms that would bring 570 megawatts (MW) from the Gulf coast. The City of Austin will sign 25-year power purchase agreements to receive the energy at a cost of $1.4 billion. >>View Article
Why you should care about Solar Impulse and renewable energy's long, long journey
June 19 -- It has now been more than 45 days since Solar Impulse took off from San Francisco for an across-the-nation journey powered only by the sun, and already there's fatigue in some corners. When Solar Impulse finally landed in Washington, DC this weekend, there were no jubilant crowds of the type that met Charles Lindbergh when he arrived in Paris after his epic transatlantic flight. >>View Article

Why Tesla's Success Matters
June 18 -- Tesla's repayment of a Department of Energy loan nine years ahead of schedule is welcome news and another indication that use of electric vehicles is growing -- both here and around the globe. Domestic sales of these automobiles tripled between 2011 and 2012, with more than 100,000 sold. Hybrid and plug-in vehicles accounted for almost 4 percent of total new car purchases in the United States. The International Energy Agency projects that, worldwide, there could be 20 million electric vehicles on the road by 2020. This is great progress. But there is more work to do to assure that EVs are part of our clean energy future -- and many reasons why we need to succeed. >>View Article
Ernest Moniz Praises Solar Impulse Plane After It Lands Near Washington D.C.

Energy and American Power
June 18 -- Energy is a profoundly important aspect of U.S. national security and foreign policy: the availability of reliable, affordable energy is essential to economic strength at home, which is the foundation of U.S. leadership in the world.

Stage 6 Day visit to UK from Bath or London
My wife and I will be in the UK for about 6 days (our second visit) and want to visit Stonehenge, Windsor and some places in London like the British Museum. Wondering if it would be better to stage from Bath and make the day trips from Bath instead of the day trips from London. Any thoughts?
Is there an Italian restaurant called Presto?

Spending a day or two in Bath on a budget
Next Monday I am travelling to Bath and will be meeting my niece & her boyfriend, who are both twenty years old. I will have a limited budget and although I would like to do the "Touristy" activities, I also want to see the "real" Bath, find cosy pubs where locals go, maybe some local music. I am following many musicians (singer songwriters who are either from the area or now live/study here)
I am staying in a hostel, (I think they organise a free walking tour).
I will be meeting the young people about lunch time & I don't want to bore them with too much museum visits, if the weather is fine I want to photo the fine architecture, and in the evening we will want to enjoy a cosy pub with live music.
I look forward to some suggestions please.

Looking for B&B in Bath
I wonder if anyone has a favorite B&B in Bath? We'd rather be close to the city centre than further out where it takes 10-15 minutes to walk into town. Any restaurant tips would also be appreciated - interesting, excellent meal other than a Michelin starred (only one in Bath).
Park and Ride
I am from Dubai and will be traveling to Bath in mid-August from Cheltenhham by car. I thought to park my car at Lansdown Park and Ride and take the bus to city center. My English colleague painted a bleak picture of park & ride system saying that I would have to wait in the rain for the bus to the city center, that it would be very slow and that I would never find the bus way back. Is it that bleak or park & ride system work as well as promised in the websites ?
Eating out in Bath
Hi all! My friend and I will be in Bath on Friday night, and would like a recommendation for a great pre-theatre meal in the city centre. Max budget for two: £50-60.

Late Nov stay
I'm planning on staying in Bath for a three day decompression vacation before some business travel in London and the continent. Anyway I know nothing about Bath and would like some inputs into what to do and esp. where to stay. Since this is a personal part of the trip, I'd like to keep thing relatively simple and cheap -won't have a car so keeping things in walking distance is important and lodging in the 50 pd area seems about right.
Good pubs, restaurants and things to do during the day would be most helpful. I'll be there Thursday, Friday and part of Saturday then off to London.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Bath Spa train station to Avon Street carpark.
Hi, i'm going to reading festival on Thursday and my coach leaves from Avon Street Car Park, could anyone please tell me the fastest way to get from Bath Spa station to the car park, this would be much appreciated and is pretty urgent. cheers xx
Visit Bath - Stay in Bristol
Hi, I'm attending a function in Bath and finding accomodation a little scarce and expensive. Since it's only for one night would it be viable to stay at a hotel in Bristol and take a taxi to/from Bath? Would the taxi-drivers be okay doing that on a Saturday night?
Bath Hilton
Has anyone stayed at the Bath Hilton and could offer an assessment? I'm considering booking their for a night in July, and I wanted to make sure it was comfortable and in a good location. Thanks for any help.

sightseeing and spending the night near Bath
I'm planning to travel from London to Bath late this month.
Could someone please recommend:
1) Which train or bus is best to take, and what is the cost? I assume the earlier I leave the better so I can spend the whole day there.
2) Any nice quaint village nearby I can spend the night, and get the feel of a typical English countryside village ? or I can find this in Stratford-uopn-Avon ?
3) transport from Bath to Stratford-upon-Avon and from thereon to either Gatwick or Stansted. Also is Startford-upon-Avon doable in about 1/2 day ? I'm planning a late afternoon flight to Amsterdam.
thanks in advance!
Serviced Apartments in Bath (or is Bristol a better option?)
Am planning to visit Bath in mid April. Would like to book a serviced apartment, but they seems to work out to £100+ per night. Are there any similar alternatives a short drive away from the city?
Have google'd around but not really found much. I was thinking of booking some apartments in Bristol which seem to be a lot cheaper, is this a good option?
Can anyone recommend any apartments (not interested in B&B's), looking to spend £60 to £80 max.
Any help would be appreciated.
staying and eating
We are travelling from pembroke to cornwall and staying over night in Bath - maybe the Travel Lodge - any info on this hotel welcome, also a good place to eat between pembroke and bath for Family?
National Express from London
I am planning to visit Bath when I visit London this year, and I am thinking of saving a bit by using the National Express instead of trains.
I want to book the Funfair ticket, but as of today when I checked their website, they don't have that ticket choice. So, for the Funfair tickets, are they only available a certain time before a date? (ie, maybe 2 months before the travel date?) I am thinking about traveling around the last week of May, so will they become available as that date approaches?
Secondly, do I have to book in advance, or will I be fine just showing up at the station and buying the ticket?
And lastly, I have read on several forums that some train and coach companies do not allow oversea customers from purchasing because they don't have a UK address. Is National Express one of them?
Thank you!
parking in bath
Can anyone suggest cheaper parking in Bath. We are staying at the Hilton in Walcot street and understand that guests usually park in the podium car park which is 19 pounds a night.
Are their cheaper car parks which are within 10 to 15 mins walking?
Thank you
best way to see Bath
Hi hope someone can help. We are booked for 5 nights in London and were planning a day trip by train to Bath. However now that we`ve begun working out our itinery
I`m wondering if it`s going to be better to hire a car and spend a night.
This way we can incorporate Windsor Castle( another train trip) and perhaps detour to Stratford Upon Avon in our two 2 trek. Is the train as expensive as we think? The `walkup` fare is so much cheaper but will we be able to get on? Also is one day enough in Bath including 3 hour roundtrip train travel? Thanks in advance.

Respond to Review of Ananda Fuara
by EscapeFromSF
Review: Having previously lamented Ananda Fuara's failure to use vegan ingredients even where it would be simple to do so, I was pleasantly surprised when I stopped in today to be handed a menu with vegan options highlighted. I didn't actually count, but it appeared the majority of their offerings can now be made vegan. And when I ordered a neatloaf sandwich, vegan with ciabatta bread, my waitress informed me that all their breads are now vegan. I see others have commented appropriately on the fact that this is a Sri Chimnoy enterprise. As I noted in my previous review, this is perhaps most evident in the saris that all the women who work there wear (while the men wear nothing special). Otherwise, I didn't see anything egregiously wrong in preceding reviews.

Water Fight
Recorded: Friday, March 7, 2014
Senior Fellow Randy T. Simmons, co-editor of Aquanomics, looks at the battles over water in the western United States. Thirsty citizens of growing cities, farmers, factories and environmentalists are in a fight for a natural resource that is priced arbitrarily. Its value is determined not by the free market, but by bureaucrats. Outdated government reclamation projects and water policies have put residents of the Golden State at the mercy of the weather, and of government's mandatory regulations.

After centuries of fighting for possession of the Ukraine, the Cossacks aid the Polish Army in 1550 by defeating the Turks and driving their soldiers over a steep cliff. Cossack leader Taras Bulba is invited to a Polish banquet celebrating the victory, but he and his men are betrayed by their hosts and forced to flee across the steppes. Later, Taras raises two sons, Andrei and Ostap, and eventually sends them to Kiev University to learn the ways of their enemies. The headstrong Andrei falls in love with Natalia, a young Polish noblewoman, but is considered unworthy of her because of his lowly birth. Driven back to his homeland after Natalia's brother dies in a fight with him and Ostap, Andrei finds that the Cossacks have amassed an army large enough to attack the Poles at Dubno. Taras and his men lay siege to the city, causing famine and pestilence, but Andrei sneaks inside the city walls when he learns that Natalia is trapped within. After he is captured trying to rescue her, Andrei agrees to raid the Cossack camp for food to prevent Natalia from being burned at the stake. Although Andrei succeeds in getting her to safety, he is shot down as a traitor by Taras; the Cossack leader is humbled, however, by the sight of Natalia weeping over his son's body.
