A man who seems to turn everything he touches into comedic gold. His movies seem to follow the same formula; nerdy guy likes cool girl but can't get with her for whatever reason, and usually ends up getting with her by the end with the help of his likable friends. He usually casts Seth Rogen, Paul Rudd, Jason Segel, Bill Hader, and Jonah Hill. 90% of the scripts are improve with a bunch of pop culture references and sex jokes. He also writes stupid (yet still funny) comedies such as Walk Hard.

Get the Judd Apatow mug.Acton is a town that shares its high school with the lesser known town of Boxborough, who get asked if they really have street lights. This town is thought to be extremely rich, and have the best high school sports. The latter may be true, but many families are not as rich as people assume.
Also, the town has no money after building a new library several years ago, renovating the JR. high, and now completing the renovations of the high school, setting them back god knows how many millions. There is an urban legend that some girls cut their toes to take crack, which is very plausable. Each year the freshman class gets sluttier and sluttier to the point where a 14 year old girl is unrecognizable. The great hangout in Acon is Bickfords restaurant on route 2A, also the late night event of everyones week. The sketchy drug dealing hangout is the Acton Bowladrome where stuff goes down unnoticed. Be sure to stop by the many Dunkin Donuts where the primary language is portuguese.

Get the Grey's Anatomy mug.n. Islam.
1.A high-ranking Shiite religious authority regarded as worthy of imitation in matters of religious law and interpretation.
2.Used as a title for such a leader.
lit. Sign of God
Ayatollah is a high rank given to major Shi'a clerics. The word means 'sign of God', and those who carry the title are experts in Islamic studies such as jurisprudence, ethics, philosophy and mysticism, and usually teach in schools (hawza) of Islamic sciences. The next lower clerical rank is Hojat-ol-Islam ("authority on Islam").
The rank is granted by consensus, rather than ceremonially: an esteemed religious scholar who has earned the respect and admiration of his teachers for his knowledge and behavior after completing his Hawza studies. By then he would be able to issue his own edicts from the sources of religious laws (Quran, Sunna, Ijma'e, Aql). Most of the time this is attested by an issued certificate from his teachers. This Ayatollah then can teach in religious Hawza according to his speciality and can act as a reference for their religious questions and as a judge.
Only a few of the most important Ayatollahs are accorded the rank of Grand Ayatollah (ayat ullahi 'l-`udhma, "great sign of God"), or Marja al-taqlid ("reference for emulation"). This usually happens when the followers of one of the ayatollahs refer to him in many situations and ask him to publish his Jurdistic book in which he answers the vast majority of daily Muslim affairs. The book is called Risalah 'Ilmiyah which is usually a reinvention of the book Al-Urwat-ulWuthqah according to their knowledge of the most authentic Islamic sources and the current life.
There is usually one Grand Ayatollah in Iraq that heads the Hawza (curently Ali al-Sistani). There are more in Iran and wherever Shi'a exist.
There are more than 20 living, the most famous of them are: Grand Ayatollahs worldwide: Jawad Tabrizi, Ali Khamenei, Ali al-Sistani, Kazem al-Haeri, Muhammad Fazel Lankarani, Ali Montazeri, Mohammad Hussein Fadlullah and Sadiq Hussaini Shirazi.
When Westerners say 'the Ayatollah', they usually mean Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, who brought the word into the international limelight during the 1979 Iranian Revolution; a possible secondary meaning would be the term's use to indicate the serving Supreme Leader of Iran.
