# Laburnum For My Head

Laburnum for My Head (2009) is the collection of eight short stories by Indian author Temsüla Ao. The stories are about the lives of people from the vibrant and troubled region of Nagaland in northeast India.
The collection brought its author the 2013 Sahitya Akademi Award for English, conferred by the Sahitya Akademi, India's National Academy of Letters.

## Stories

* Laburnum For My Head. A strange obsession of a woman for laburnum flowers. Unable to successfully grow a laburnum plant on her garden during her lifetime, she wants to have one over her grave.
* Death of a Hunter. A brave hunter, Imchanok, totters when the ghost of his prey haunts him, till he offers it a tuft of his hair as a prayer for forgiveness.
* The Boy Who Sold an Airfield. Pokenmong, the servant boy, by dint of his wit, sells an airfield to unsuspecting villagers.

* Sonny. A young girl loses her lover in his fight for the motherland, leaving her a frightful legacy.
* Flight. A caterpillar finds wings.

## Reception

The collection received generally favorable reviews. Writing for Biblio: A Review of Books, Anusua Mukherjee compares the voice of the narrator to that "of an elderly village woman telling the tales, who has been there and seen it all, and in the wisdom born of endurance, can smoothen the jagged edges of experience in the rich texture of the tapestry that is the stories she weaves." On a critical note, Mukherjee also goes on to say that the dry writing style which is the strength of Ao's poetry, "parches the prose, making it too flat at times." However, writing for Business Standard, Vineeta Rai suggests that "the simplicity of the language hides the complexity of emotions and themes she has written about, and the stories linger on long after the pages have been turned and the book closed."

# Lethings

The Lethings (Italian: Letingi) were a dynasty of Lombard kings ruling in the 5th and 6th centuries until 546. They were the first Lombard royal dynasty and represent the emergence of the Lombard rulership out of obscurity and into history.
The Lethings were elected by an assembly of warriors. They took their dynastic name from Lethuc, the first known Lombard king. When Lethuc died and was replaced by Aldihoc, the Lombards took a step towards institutional stability. Under the Lethings, too, the Lombards, who had thitherto wandered around northern Europe, migrated south to the Danube and Pannonia. In 510, the reigning Lething, Tato, was displaced by his nephew, Wacho, and thereafter until 546 a cadet branch of the original house ruled. Under the last dynasts, the Lombards became a power in terms of their threat to the Byzantine Empire on par with the Ostrogoths and Franks.
The Lething were displaced when the child ruler Walthari was killed by his regent, Audoin, who then assumed the throne, inaugurating the Gausi dynasty. The Lething lineage did not die out, however, as Waldrada, a daughter of Wacho, had married Garibald I of Bavaria, and fostered a daughter, Theodelinda, who married Authari and became Queen of the Lombards. Her descendants were the Bavarian dynasty, a cadet branch of the Agilolfings, themselves Frankish.

# Rudel Scandal

The Rudel Scandal of 1976 (German: Rudel-Affäre) was a political scandal in Germany which concerned the way the German Armed Forces dealt with the traditions of the Wehrmacht.
In the spring of 1976, businessman and former Nazi Germany's Luftwaffe flying ace Hans-Ulrich Rudel, who had returned from Paraguay was invited by high-ranking Bundeswehr officers to a veterans' reunion of the Aufklärungsgeschwader 51 "Immelmann". Rudel had earlier been a leading member of the German Reich Party, and was considered persona non grata by the Ministry of Defense because of his undiminished admiration of Adolf Hitler. He was invited only after an intervention by the opposition's spokesman for Defense, Manfred Wörner, and attended as the last commander of Schlachtgeschwader 2 "Immelmann".
Present at the meeting, where Rudel signed his books and gave autographs to soldiers, were the German Air Force generals Karl Heinz Franke [de] and Walter Krupinski. Later, the generals publicly compared Rudel's past as a Nazi and Neo-Nazi supporter to the career of prominent Social Democrat leader Herbert Wehner, who had been a member of the German Communist Party in the 1930s and who had lived in Moscow during World War II, where he was allegedly involved in NKVD operations. Calling Wehner an extremist, they described Rudel as an honourable man who "hadn't stolen the family silver or anything else".
When these remarks became public, the Federal Minister of Defense Georg Leber ordered the generals into early retirement as of 1 November 1976. Leber, however, a member of the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD), was heavily criticised for his actions by the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) opposition, and the scandal contributed to the minister's retirement in early 1978.
