An unemployed woman from Connecticut found another way to advertise her resume, hoping that this would be the best method to get a job as soon as possible.

East Hampton resident Pasha Stocking decided to place an ad via a large billboard along Interstate 95 in Bridgeport. The sign gives out the message, “Hire Me!” plus her photo and the website address http://www.hirepasha.com where employers can see her qualifications.

Stocking, a 37-year old single mom, was laid off from work in June last year. She revealed that she had been looking ever since a job that’s related in marketing and design – which was her task during her previous employment. She said that she was inspired to rent a billboard because a man from Milwaukee did the same thing.

A man in Israel stripped down to emphasize his protest over a Tel Aviv supermarket’s decision to sell break over Passover.

According to reports, selling of break is a violation of Jewish religious laws. Apparently, 28-year old Arieh Yerushalmi is taking the law by heart – went to the store last Sunday and shed his clothing.

Yerushalmi also staged a similar protest last year at another market.

The Passover week began on Wednesday and Jewish law specifically bans the selling of leavened products during the holiday.

A pet dog that was believed to have drowned after falling overboard during a sailing trip off the coast in Australia was found four months later living in an uninhabited island.

Jan Griffith’s family was sailing through rough waters last November when the dog, named Sophie Tucker, fell overboard. The family was devastated, believing the dog would not have survived.

However, Sophie Tucker swam and made it to St Bees Island, an island that was five nautical miles away from where she fell and made quick adjustment in her environment, living off baby feral goats.

The rangers thought they have captured a wild dog but friends who heard about this contacted the Griffiths to check it out if it is their dog.

“We called the dog and she started whimpering and banging the cage and they let her out and she just about flattened us,” Griffith said in an interview.

Music artist Courtney Love is reportedly ready to fight a big battle against those individuals who have “looted” of her late husband’s estate.

According to her lawyer, the rock star is preparing her lawsuit in behalf of herself and her daughter against several unspecified individuals who have earned money that should have gone to their end.

“Courtney’s main interest is ensuring that her daughter gets the assets back that were stolen,” says San Diego attorney Rhonda Holmes in an interview with E! News.

“Courtney is pursuing her rights on the criminal end against the people who stole, and her daughter and Kurt’s estate are focusing on the financial aspect,” she added.

Holmes declined to specify the names prior to the filing of the complaint but hinted that the suspects will include former lawyers, assistants and managers of Kurt Cobain, the lead singer of the band Nirvana who committed suicide a few years back.

A seventy-year old retiree from Boone County, West Virginia pulled off a surprising achievement in the golf course when he aced two consecutive holes-in-one on Tuesday.

According to reports, Carl Smith used a pitching wedge to nail a 70-yard 18th hole at the Coonskin Park in Charleston. He never thought that he could do the same thing after a short break.

Smith said that he used a sand wedge in a 100-yard hole and was shocked to discover that his tee shot bounced twice and then made its way in the hole. His good friend Bob Roy saw the events.
