Porn.
In Japan, Korea and China this word refers to any kind of adult video, including animated(which is not called hentai here in Japan).
AV means "adult video", but it does not stand for "adult video".
It just has that popular name.
AV has some distinct characteristics from any other porn. Anything you see in cartoon porn(known as hentai in the US) other than little girls and the physically impossible, is done in AV.
AV stars are known as AV Idols.
They are girls who start with innocent-type roles(ie schoolgirl is very popular here). Most of them get moved onto more hardcore things(ie S&M also popular here but only under the surface).
I have been in Japan for 2 months and bought some AV, which is how I know what I am saying.

The term used to describe engaging in extreem or exciting activity, with no doubt or fear of failure. Often used shortly before a wicked night out on the town!
Heading into the club, expecting to have a wicked night... "Let's 'av it!"
Driving on the motorway in the rain at 90mph, hitting a large puddle causing the car to coast towards the central reservation and back again, recovering and keeping going... "That's 'aving it!"

Lyrics to Ave Maria:
"Ave Maria,
Gratia plena
Maria, gratia plena
Maria, gratia plena
Ave, ave dominus
Dominus tecum..."
"Ave Maria,
Gratia plena
Maria, gratia plena

Ave, ave dominus
Dominus tecum..."

the whole University Way NE in Seattle, WA, next to the University of Washington. Commercial heart, lots of restaurants of different countries.
A: Hey let's go grab some lunch after this class!
B: Sure, where?
A: I've heard that there's a new restaurant opened on the ave, near the 43rd, do you wanna try?
B: Great! I'm kind of sick with the Pho we always eat already.
