The Lieutenant's wake-up call, and his possible salvation, comes unexpectedly in the form of a particularly vicious rape and torture of a nun (Frankie Thorn) on the altar of a church in Spanish Harlem. The Lieutenant is too complex to dismiss as a purely deviant monster; his suffering transcends the personal, addressing every lost soul adrift in a casually cruel and brutally indifferent world. www-tech.mit.edu /V113/N8/lieutenant.08a.html   (743 words)

Bad Lieutenant The Lieutenant is not a party guy: He gets no pleasure from his transgressions but seems driven by demons to abase himself as much as is humanly possible.

Will New Jersey get a Lieutenant Governor? Instead of funding salaries for a lieutenant governor and staff, Codey has said, the state’s constitution should simply be adjusted so that the Senate president would give up his or her legislative job before being sworn in as governor. Since the lieutenant governor proposal is a constitutional amendment, Codey is powerless as governor to stop it.

lieutenant. The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language: Fourth Edition. 2000. In military parlance lieutenant appears by itself as well as in compounds such as first lieutenant and second lieutenant, which muddy the water a bit, but the original notion of the word in military usage was that the officer it referred to ranked below the next one up and could replace him if need be. This usage has survived, for example, in our term lieutenant governor, the deputy of the governor and the one who replaces the governor if need be. A lieutenant in the U.S. Army could thus step into the shoes of a captain. www.bartleby.com /61/73/L0157300.html   (277 words)
