Brace yourselves, Twihards: After four very eventful years together, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are taking a much-needed break, a source close to Pattinson, 27, tells Us Weekly. Additional Pattinson insiders add that the British actor and Stewart, 23, have been "having problems" and "fighting a lot," with things coming to a head on Pattinson's 27th birthday May 13.

Still, the first source adds that the much-scrutinized romance could go either way, and that a reconciliation is certainly possible. Just one week before the bitter birthday argument that led to the current split, in fact, the twosome were happily affectionate at NYC's Cabin, where Pattinson met Stewart following her solo appearance at the Met Gala.

SPEED DATING ... FOR SKINNY GIRLS

Speed dating is pretty common, but how about "Skinny Minny" speed dating? "Skinny Minny" events are exclusive to women size 8 and under.

Waitress gets a $446 tip - on a bill of $5.97

Sometimes it pays to be nice. In the case of CeCe Bruce, a server at a Steak 'n Shake in Indianapolis, it paid $446 – on a bill of $5.97.

On Wednesday, Bruce, who has been working at the chain restaurant for two years, received a surprise when one of her regular customers left her a $446 tip.

“I was amazed,’’ Bruce told TODAY.com. “She always tips me 50 percent of her bill, but her bill is usually only $5 and she leaves a $5 tip. She’s a very nice lady.’’

The regular customer, whom the staff only knows as “Miss Jo,’’ left right after paying. Bruce tried to track her down in the parking lot, saying she couldn’t accept such a huge tip. The customer was adamant that Bruce keep the money.

“I was in shock,’’ Steak 'n Shake manager Greer Gooley told TODAY.com. “I was in the back on a food order, and Miss Jo wrote out the bill and then she ran out the door really quick. (Bruce) ran into the parking lot to thank her, and she just told her to take it and then spun off.”

Bruce, who is a full-time student at Martin University in Indianapolis, said she is putting the money toward bills.

“It helps tremendously,’’ she said. “It restores your faith in humanity, makes you trust people, and shows you can never judge a book by its cover. You’ve got to treat everybody the same. I try to be friendly to everyone.”

Gooley said that in the six years he has worked at the Steak 'n Shake,  he had never seen anything more exorbitant than a $100 tip. “(Bruce) is extremely deserving of that money,’’ he told TODAY.com. “She works hard, and she will come in whenever you need her. She has more regulars than any of our other servers.”

Since her story became public, good vibes have continued to come Bruce’s way. She had a $14 tip on a small bill on Friday, and said a couple from California who saw her story reached out to contact her because they want to help her out with some money for school.

“Good things have been happening,’’ Bruce said.

DAVID BECKHAM: Retiring From Soccer

David Beckham won't be bending it for much longer. The soccer star is set to retire at the end of the season. 

The 38-year-old is ending his career with Paris St.-Germain, having just clinched the French league championship. He's also won championships in England with Manchester United, in Spain with Real Madrid and in the U.S. with the Los Angeles Galaxy.

Though his exploits on the field were legendary, he's been equally known for marrying a Spice Girl, his dashing good looks and his underwear ads. As business expert Simon Chadwick puts it, "Brand Beckham is dead, long live Brand Beckham! Beckham's transition from athlete commodity to sporting statesman and entrepreneur is now complete."

According to Forbes, Beckham was the world’s highest-paid soccer player in 2012 at $50.6 million, including his endorsements, which also made him the eighth highest-paid athlete in the world.

In a statement, Becks says, "I owe everything to Victoria and the kids, who have given me the inspiration and support to play at the highest level for such a long period... I'm fortunate to have realized those dreams."

Retired NASCAR driver Richard "Dick" Trickle died Thursday, May 16, of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, authorities in North Carolina told the Associated Press. He was 71.

According to the Lincoln County, N.C., sheriff's department, officials received a call -- believed to have been placed by Trickle -- that "there would be a dead body and it would be his." Attempts to return the call went unanswered.

Emergency units were then dispatched to the Forest Lawn Cemetery off Highway 150 in Boger City, where Trickle's body was discovered on the ground near his pickup truck. The sheriff's department told the AP foul play is not suspected.

Trickle first made a name for himself as a short-track driver in his native Wisconsin. Per ESPN, he has been billed as the winningest short-track driver in the history of stock-car racing, with 67 victories in 1972 alone. In 1989, he earned the Rookie of the Year title at NASCAR's Winston Cup.

Google Maps leads abducted Chinese boy home to family 23 years later

A Sichuan man, abducted and taken to Fujian province at the age of five, has finally found his way home after spending years trying to work out where he came from. And he says he could not have done it without the help of Google Maps, Fujian’s news portal nhaidu.com reports.

Luo Gang, who was born in a small town in Guangan city, southwestern Sichuan province, disappeared on his way to kindergarten 23 years ago, said his parents. Heartbroken, they did everything they could to find their son, but to no avail. They eventually gave up and later adopted a daughter.

What they didn't know was that their son had been taken to a city in southeastern Fujian province, some 1500 kilometres from Sichuan.

Although Luo’s adopted parents loved him and treated him like their own son, he said the desire to find his birth parents had always haunted him.

“Everyday before I went to bed, I forced myself to re-live the life spent in my old home,” he said. “So I wouldn’t forget.”

But the only memory Luo had of his hometown was of two bridges.

He drew a rough map of his hometown from memory, before posting it on “Bring Lost Babies Home”, a Chinese website devoted to locating missing children through the help of volunteers.

Soon afterwards, a volunteer wrote back with valuable information - a couple from a small town in Sichuan’s Guangan city had lost a son 23 years ago. The time matched Luo’s abduction perfectly.

Luo searched for pictures of the Sichuan town and found they looked familiar to him. To confirm his suspicions, he turned to the satellite version Google Maps. The minute he zoomed in on an area called “Yaojiaba” near the Sichuan town, Luo recognised the two bridges.

“That’s it! That’s my home,” shouted Luo, in tears.

Luo was pictured in a tearful reunion with his birth parents and grandparents in Sichuan.

“In the past years, I couldn’t help crying each time I thought about my son, who could be starving without enough clothes on him,” said his mother.

It is unclear whether any criminal charges will be brought against Luo's adoptive family.

COLOR OF BEDROOM AFFECTS SLEEP QUALITY

A new study finds that the color of your bedroom matters when it comes to sleep quality. The research was done by Travelodge, and found that those who sleep in rooms colored yellow, blue, or green get the best night's sleep. The hotel chain investigated two-thousand homes across the UK to find out which colors were equated with great sleep. Those who slept in bedrooms colored purple were found to sleep the worst. Study authors say this may happens because purple is a very mentally stimulating color. Other bad-sleep colors included gray and brown. One sleep expert says, "This is an amazing result, as there are specialized receptors called ganglion cells in the retina part of our eyes, which are more sensitive to the color blue." He explains the ganglion cells feed information to the brain in the area that controls our internal clocks and affects how we perform and feel during the day. (Daily Mail)

Angelina Jolie isn't done going under the knife.

After revealing that she had a double mastectomy, Angelina says she's also planning to have her ovaries removed. The same faulty gene that put her at risk for breast cancer also gives her a roughly 50 percent chance of developing ovarian cancer.

According to People magazine, she's had no complications since the surgery in February or her reconstructive procedure last month.

An obsessed Taylor Swift fan was arrested near the singer's Rhode Island beach home early this morning after allegedly SWIMMING up to her pad ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement tells us ... a 22-year-old male from the Chicago area was taken into custody for trespassing after he admitted to swimming up to the beach in front of Swift's home around 2 AM.

Here's the back story -- around 2:20 AM, cops spotted the man getting out of the ocean, around 1 mile from Swift's home.

Cops approached the guy and asked him what he was doing in the water -- and the man allegedly told police he had just completed a swim, in which he intended to meet Taylor.

Sources say ... the man told cops he swam all the way to Swift's beach, but saw her security team ... and decided to swim back to where he came from (roughly 2 miles round trip in cold water).

The man was hauled to a nearby police station where he was booked for trespassing. He's still in custody.

We spoke to the Westerly Police Dept. which tells us, "There is a zero tolerance policy for trespassers." The cops say they have already met with Taylor's security to discuss the matter.
