If you felt a rattling last night as you slept off your weekend hangover, don't worry: that was just the stars aligning for one Jennifer Lawrence, who is destined to be loved by all for eternity.

The American College of Sports and Medicine released their annual ranking of the fifty largest metropolitan areas based on fitness and health, creating a baseline of the most athletic and fit cities in the U.S.

The trailer for Catching Fire, the sequel to The Hunger Games, was unveiled late Sunday night during the MTV Movie Awards. It looks...exciting for fans of the franchise. Jennifer Lawrence is back in serious action hero mode ("Go ahead," she tells some soldier guy pointing a gun at her), and all your favorite actors are back playing characters with strange names. Woody Harrelson as Haymitch Abernathy. Donald Sutherland as President Snow. Jeffrey Wright as Beetee. And, in what's apparently a big deal, Philip Seymour Hoffman is Plutarch Heavensbee.

Teen death rattle trumps adolescent wizardry: The Hunger Games surpasses Harry Potter as best-selling books of all time.

The real sport of The Hunger Games, Gary Ross's compulsively entertaining cinematic adaptation, is breezing by those murders without offending delicate sensibilities.

Penn Badgley knows what it is to struggle. But don't let the excellent quality and unusual textures of his many scarves fool you, because he can certainly recognize a revolution when he sees one.

Invisible Children, the nonprofit behind the KONY 2012 campaign, has asked supporters to spend April 20 raising awareness of the crimes of Ugandan militia leader and horrible person Joseph Kony.

Hey Hunger Games creeps, now you can further disengage with the real world and emerge yourself in a fictitious world of Suzanne Collins' making. In anticipation of the upcoming film adaptation of the YA trilogy, visit the Capitol's website, or the "citizen information terminal." You can bone up on knowledge of the tributes, learn district population information, and my personal favorite, view a feature called, "tracker jack incidents." There is also, obvs, a countdown until the movie's premier (16 days, 11 hours, 06 minutes, 3 seconds).
