THIS WEEK'S WORD IN THE NEWS 

ABOMINATION

DEFINITION:
A cause of abhorrence or disgust.

FOUND IN THE NEWS:
In just three months, Arizona's controversial new immigration law has shaken the national political scene, viewed either as a civil-rights abomination or the symbol of a state stepping up to do a difficult job that the U.S. government refuses to do.
