I've never heard of the academic journal Target before, but the Linguistic Society of America just emailed the table of contents of the latest issue to me, and the title of the first article really jumped out at me as a well-crafted one:

"Getting away with murder: The Maltese Falcon’s specialized homosexual slang gunned down in translation"

...Another great thing about that title is that, by reading it, I know exactly what the paper is about, so I don't have to spend time actually reading the abstract or the paper itself.
