Those caring individuals who run animal shelters know that finding new owners for their furry charges can be a daunting affair, and anything that can be done to help make the process easier is seen as a blessing by those who give their lives helping pets find good homes.
When digital artist and photographer Sarolta Ban adopted a dog of her own she was struck by inspiration and came up with the brilliant idea to help shelter pets get adopted by creating fun surreal portraits of each dog.
Portraits of her subjects are gathered from around the world, and whenever one of these lucky dogs are adopted she gifts the new owners with a copy of their surreal portrait. What a great way to connect these needy dogs with new owners!

Makes me giggle every time =)
Oh, beautiful, beautiful Wikipedia, is there ANYTHING you can't tell me about?
And Ben Burtt shouldn't get credit for popularizing it; it was already a popular bit of stock sound. It's just that he took it to all new levels of obsessive stupidity without care whether he was damaging the art he inserted it into.
So far I haven't heard it in the cinema, but it will be quite interesting to see what everyone else's reactions are when I suddenly shout out "WILHELM!" in the middle of the film (you can get away with anything as long as you turn around to see who did it with everyone else...)^_^
We watched Star Wars Episode 3, and the Tarzan yell the Wookies gave as they swing on ropes to attack the robot army is so Tarzany, it actually ruins that particular moment in the movie. Star Wars is not known for its subtlety. Sometimes, effects can be overdone.
Because all cats make that noise. When jumping. even if they are jumping from the table to the floor.
WREEEEARR!
"Tires screech, crash sound with muffled male scream half way through"
I've heard it on quite a few old radio programs, such as Boston Blackie, The Saint and The Shadow. If anyone has a copy of the novelty song by "Nervous Norvus" "Transfusion", it's repeated there at least 4 times.
Gosh it's late.... can you tell :)
