Did you know that some people think the Onion is real? And that they post articles from in to their Facebook as if they are true?  Or that twice a year the sun lines up perfectly with the east-west streets in New York City causing an amazing display of light called ‘Mahattanhenge”?  You will learn more about both those things on Page 1.

On page 2 you can wonder at what comes out of one man’s mouth as he sleeps. We really aren’t sure how his wife gets any sleep. And then you can see what the world would be like as a village of 100 people, but with the same demographic proportions. We bet it will give you some fresh perspectives on our planet.

There’s also a link to a site that only has cute animal videos on it.

You can learn how to make your own science fiction items with some fake Ikea Assembly Manuals from CollegeHumor. Or you can help undermine the growth of QR codes by spreading these fake ones.

You can do all this and more in the latest issue of Reflecteur. You can even check out Yahoo’s recent interview with VivaKi Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer Rishad Tobaccowala.

In this issue we look at some amazing posters, fascinating photos, a site to track down hot girls and commercials, and a way to better understand planetary alignment. Digital culture is nothing if not varied.

* 100 Year of Sex Posters is a gallery by the San Francisco City Clinic for their 100th anniversary. It’s a collection of posters from the last hundred years, mostly from the United States, that warn or educate people about sexually transmitted diseases. We’re big fans of the posters from the World War II years and the ridiculous over the top claims – did you know even dinosaurs had to worry about STDs? Neither did we.

* Who is that hot ad girl? is a blog aimed at answering that exact question. Inspired by the new T-Mobile spokeswoman, the site takes submissions from fans about which commercial girls they want to know more about. The super sleuthing skills of the site owners are impressive enough. But we also love the way this site highlights the fact that just about anyone who adds some sort of interest to people’s days can and will be celebrated online.

This issue features the following items:

* Bureaucrats: A Global Portrait in Red Tape: These images remind us of the universality of many experiences and the uncanny ability of photographs to express both the similarities and differences.

* What we see/What kids see: Then we look at the deeper message behind lava floor. Need we say more?

* Emails from your Inlaws: If you thought you had a difficult family member or in-law, then you need to read these emails. You’ll either feel a lot better about your lot, or submit your own note and top what’s already there. Either way, you win.

* The Strange & Telling Case of the Illiterate Novelist: Finally, a great example of how the fight between grammar snobs and … everyone else. Though, in this case, we think their response is warranted.
